Heavy casualties were inflicted on
those of the enemy who had the te-
merity TO endeavor to make a stand.
ON the other hand the casualties of
the allies are declared to have been
relatively small, those of the Amert-
cans being less than half the number
of prisoners taken by them.
Where the enemy purposes to make
his next stand cannot be foretold, but
probably an effort for a turnabout will
be attempted along the Valenciennes-
sedan front. After this line the only
known German defensive position
west of the Rhine is the Meuse river.
The Americans are already threatens
ing TO make this line untenable. having
started an advance up the valley on
the eastern side of the stream toward
Sedan,
The maneuvers Of the French north
west of Rheims are cutting more deep
ly into the German line, despite the
serious resistance that is being offered
by the enemy to postpone the fall OF
the great st. Gobain massif and the
highly important strategic positions
of Laon and La Fere, which seemingly
are likely to be pinched out of the
battle front by the successful opera
tions around st. Quentin and Berry Au
Bac.
Hard Fighting Along the Suippc.
Strong resistance also is being inn
posed by the Germans against fur
Their advances by the French and
Americans in Champagne and east of
the Argonne forest. Particularly
heavy counter-attaCks have been
launched by the enemv on various po-
sitions, but without results other than
in increasing his casualties. Along the
Snippe river the fighting is furious.
but the French have been able to
make further crossing of the stream.
ST. Etienne has changed hands sew
oral times in bitter comba;s.
West of the Argonne forest the
Americas have driven their line for
ward to the region Of Cornay on the
Are river where they have effected
a junction with the French troops and
seemingly the Argonne forest soon will
be in allied hands. on the eastern side
of the Meuse the Americans have adj
Vanced and taken several small Wiz
lagos and also Strengthened out their
line which was being erfiladed by the
German guns from the east.
Reports persist that the Turkish
cabinet has fallen and that the new
grand vizier will be Tewfik Pasha,
whose sympathies are declared to be
pro-ally rather than pro-Germany.
Rumors also has it that the Turks
have dispatched a peace note to the
allies through the Spanish govern
ment.

GERMAN AIRMEN USE
INFLAMMABlE BOMB

Paris, Oct 9.-The Germans have
been using in their air work a new
type of inflamable bomb, combining
great effectiveness with light weight
A single airplane, it is said, can carry
200 of these bombs.
The only way of fighting the fire
caused by this new weapon appears to
be the isolation of the blaze, as pour
ing water on it is literally adding fuel
to the flames because of chemical
with which the bombs are composed.

Bishop Weller Says:

Fond du Lac, Wis.-''If we stopped
and demanded peace now, 1t would
mean that for centuries to come, the
name of liberty would be bloUted out
from civilization. I would rather
have my sons die on the battlefield
than come back to heritage OF slav-
cry. This is Bishop Reginald Heber
Weller's view OF peace talk now. Bis
hop Weller, who is brad Of the Fond
du Lac Episcopal diocese, has three
sons commissioned as officers and now
at the front. He believes that peace
lies in the. dim distance and it is. a
fight to the finish now.
II wonder if the American people
realize that we are engaged in a great
war, he said. "Do we realize that If
we are to stem this tide of invaders
we must have 100000 men in the tren-
ches by spring? That we must send
them over at the rate Of 10000 aday?
Are we living on less than we did a
year ago? Are we wearing our old
clothes and conserving our food that
the boys in the trenches may have
enough? The food and clothing
wasted in this country would feed and
cloth Belgium. When the fuel order
came outlast week one splendid thing
it accomplished was to wake some
people up to the fact that we are
earnestly engaged in this war. :

Praises Red Gross.

Praise such as General John ]. Per-
shing recently gave the American Red
Cross seldom is.received by any organ
ization and not only Red Cross officials
but its twenty odd million members
and other millions of well wishers APP
preciate his words highly.
II want to say to you," General
Pershing said to Idah McGlone Glib
son, that no organization since the
world began has ever done such great
constructive work with the efficiency,
dispatch, understanding, often under
adverse circumstances, that has been
done in France by the American Red
Cross in the last six months. !"
That appears to be about the limit
in commentator. 1t was followed by
more remarks equally complimentary
to the Red Cross for it's work in re-
facilitating the devastated homes OF
France and thereby improving the
mOale of the French army.

Good Roads Necessary Now.

Secretary Houston, of the Depart
ment of Agriculture, has set forth the
policy which should be followed in
highway construction during the war.
$50 far as it is practicable to do SO,
this department. will urge the main
tenance of the highways already con-
structed; the construction and COM
pleton ofthose highways which are vi
tally important because Of their bear
ing upon the war situation or for tn lie
movement of commodities: the post
ponement of all highway construction
relatively less essential or not based
upon important military or economic
needs.
The department. is preparing to sug
gest to the State highway departments
the preparation of schedule of work
for the Federal aid projects for 1913
in line with this policy"
Road construction and maintenance
in the United States involve an an
nual expenditure of about $500, 600, 600.

viii Import Laborers.

Laborers from Porto Rico and Vir-
gin Islands for Farm and Railroad
Work The Depart ment of Labor is
arranging to bring into the United
States 10000 laborers for railroad and
farm work, from Porto Rico and the
Virgin Islands according to Louis f.
Post, assistant secretary of the De-
partment of Labor.
Mr.. Post declares there is no neces-
sity for importing common labor from
Mexico or China. Porto Rico is an
agricultural territory and yet has a
density of population exceeded by only
three States. A considerable surplus
of workers exists ON the island. Tt can
furnish 100000 laborers, and the Vir-
gin Islands can send 10000 more.
Arrangements are being made to
bring over $4,000 men as soon as ton
mage is av.ilable.

General Pershing Says:

In a recent communication to Sec
rectary of War Baker, the commander
of the American Expeditionary For
ces said;
ssThere has never been a similar
body of men to lead as clean lives as
our American soldiers in France.
They have entered this war with the
highest devotion to duty and with no
other idea than to perform these dut-
les in most efficient manner possible.
They fully realize their obligation TO
their own people, their friends, and
the country. A rigid program of in
structions is carriedout daily with tra-
ditional American enthusiasm. Enga-
ged in healthy, interesting exercises
in the open air,with simple diets, Off
GERS and men, like trained athletes,
are ready for their tasks.
Forbidden the use of strong drink
and protected by stringent regulations
against sexual evils, and supported by
their own moral courage, their good
behavior is the subject of most favor
able comments, especially by our allies.
American mothers may rest assured
that their sons are credit to them
and to the Nation, and they may well
look forward to the proud day when
on the battle field these splendid men
will shed new luster on American
manhood"

1t is so rarely that Governor
Phillip moves us to words of APP
probation that it's a pleasure to
state that in his speech at Wat
ertown, the other night he said
much to allay criticism of his
policies. His stand on the party
fusion idea is perfectly sound
and hard to get away from.
Thanks to La Toilette and the
Primary Election law, one of
the best measures ever given to
the electors Of any state, there
is nothing to prevent any voter
picking loyal candidates. if not
in September, then two months
later. We don't believe pro-
German or .'agin the govern
nent'' candidates Of any party
are going to be Wisconsin's
choice next fall.

senator matter can be commend
ed for it's frankness and nothing
more.

A large number of high schools
throughout the country are sub
shutting Latin for their German
course. It's sensible move and
should have never been neces-
sary to employ. Latin, the
root Of all languages, is the only
one besides English that should
be taught in the public schools.
If parents wish their children to
speak more than the language
of their native lana and the one
in which they will live and die
let, them pay for it at private in
stitutions of which there plenty,
and who can also do it right. For
the average boy or girl, Eng
lish we'll acquired will answer
most of their needs in language.
For years those who could raise
the money have sending their
sons to Heidelberg and other
German centers Of learning to
complete their college careers
Others staid at home and went
into raptures over German OPP
era understanding it quite as
well as Choctaw and to go home
and tell their neighbors how
grand it was. Wen have the
other extreme of changing the
names of towns and business in
stitutions bearing Made in
Germany" names, and will have
but little effect on winning the
war. 1t will take ammunition
of a larger caliber, fred at clos
er range to do that. Neither
extreme is worthy of support by
the people Of the most fortunate
nation in the world.

charge Of depositing bad check for
$500 in the Omaha bank. Later he
was released and has never been tried

the check from a woman named
Zuma Mann and that he deposited it
in the American State bank. He at
once began checking out on the ac-
count thus established. He says that
none of the checks that he made out
was refused by the bank. He used
the money to pay the Mann woman
for purchases which he made, he al
