WATERUSERS WANT MORE
INFORMATION ON DISTRICT
Many Richland Farmers Vote Against
District Because They Don't
Understand Details

B. S. Wadsworth, of Richland, in
forms the Courier-Reporter that the
vote of the waterusers to create an ir-
rigation district was not virtually
unanimous" as reported in last week S
issue. He says the vote was Al for
and 35 against the district with sew
eral of the waterusers present not
voting. ..
Mr.. Wadsworth says that while
there is no pronounced opposition to
the creation of an irrigation district,
that many of the waterusers voted
against it or did not vote at all be-
cause the details of organization are
not sufficiently clear to them. One
point which he says is not clear is
whether or not the farmer who has a
paid-up water right and has his land
under cultivation comes into the dis
trict on the same basis as does the
owner of unimproved lands held for
speculation. ....

 The Germans gave little, if any, in dicaton of an impending retreat until this evening All morning long the Americans on every part of the front had met with stubborn resistance.
 The opposition was especially de- termined on the left and right and the American center had pushed forward considerably further than had eittAr wing. Though the center had intended to continue and to attain its days ob- jectives, it was apparent there would soon have to be pause if the troops were not to be flanked
 So certain were the military com handlers that the Germans would not break that the chief of staff of the troops in the center belittled the report arriving about o'clock this afternoon that the town of Posse had been taken. one hour later reports began to come thick and fast They first showed that resistance against the American left had unaccountably ceased. Then came reports indicating that the right wing was moving ahead at marvellous speed The first intimation that the enemy was 1etreating came from the Fourth French army, which was advancing to the northeast.

Washington, November 2--Owners of the first Liberty Bonds converted, ana the second Liberty Bonds. bearing per cent, who wish to exchange them for bonds bearing Az per cent, must do so before next Saturday, November g. when the conversion privilege by law expires This can be done without cost at any bank, and the only effect is 10 give the bondholder an extra A of l per cent interest
 In calling the attention to the fact that only a week remains in the con version period, a statement authorized by Secretary McAdoo said
 Tt is safe to assume that upon the expiration of the conversion privilege that fact will reflect itself unfavor- ably in the market price of unconyerted 4 per cent bonds which have hereto fore been maintained substantially on a parity with the converted IA per cent bonds by the existence of the privilege of conversion. The treasury now asks the newspapers of the United States, bankers, brokers and others to do what they can to bring these facts before the attention of the bondholders.
