FORMING NEW LINE
By Frank J. Taylor


Omitted Press staff correspondent
With the American First Army, Oct.
9,-The Germans are reported to be
concentrating heavily behind Romagne
which forms the center of the enemy
front between the Meuse and the Ar
gonne massif.
Their artillery is extremely dense
there, and their machine guns are be-
heved to average only few yards
apart. At the same time, a great move
ment of German artillery is reported
under way toward the rear, indicating
that this concentration may be prepa-
ration for big rear guard action,
covering further withdrawal. Much
of the artillery now going backward
is being stationed in the vicinity of
Grand Pre-. This village guards the east
ern entrance to the cut through the
Argonne forest, along which the Mon
thois-Apremont railway runs.
Artillery is active along the whole
front. The Cunel and Mots woods were
drenched with drum fire all night.
Brieulles is still burning
American "archies'' shot down a
German airplane and balloon yester-
day.
Two Fokker battle planes attacked
an American observation plane. With
in five minutes both enemy machines
had been shot down.

forces between st. Quentin and Cam

into the German positions, menacing
the enemy's hold in the Douai region
to the north, as well as the Laon re-
gion, to the south.
Average progress of three miles on
a front of more than 20 miles was re-
ported in Field Marshal Haig's night

Rouvoy and Fontaine Uterte have been
captured with 100 prisoners.

from the Scarpe northward, occupying

NO THRILLS FOR
VOTERS IN THE
City ELECTION
Big Issue Is That OF The Pro-
posed Bonding City For
All improvements.

Voting for candidates for city offices
in Salem on November 5th will be q
commonplace affair and there will be no
thrills, except possibly in wards three
and seven where there are opposing
candidates.
In regard 10 primary elections, the
laW is that where a candidate receives
majority of all votes cast, he is elec.
ted and other candidates in the confess
cannot come before the voters at the
final election.
Hence, for mayor, there will appear
on the official ballot the name of c.
E. Albin. He was officially elected at
the primaries
The same is true of Earl Race, eandi-
date for city recorder, and @. o. Rice
for city treasurer. They are already
elected but their names Of course will
go on the ballot.
For chief of police the race is be-
tween Percy NJ. Varney and ]. E,
Wright. At the primaries three eandi'
dates were in the field and no one re-
ceived majority of all votes cast
Hence Mr. Wright and Mr.. Varney who
received the largest number Of votes at
the primaries, become the candidates at
the November 5th election.
In ward l, there is no contest for
alderman. All that people living in
that ward may do is to place mark
after the name of R. w. Simeral and
Fred j. Smith. Two aldermen are to
be elected in each ward
Ward 2 presents no contest. All that
voters need do is to place the check
mark in front of the names of D. Floyd
L. Utter and H. H. Vandervort.
In ward 3, Otto ]. Wilson was elected
for the long term. For the short term
there is contest between j. s. Austin
and B. f. Edwards.
Everything is lovely in ward A. Paul
V. johnson was elected at the primaries
for the long term and A. H. Moore for
the short term.
In ward it looked for few days be-
fore the primaries that no patriot would
offer to be candidate for alderman.
However, business picked up and on the
day of the lection resulted in the nomi-
nation of Edward Schunke and Merlin
Harding There is no contest.
Ward 6 will be represented in the
council to take its seat next January
by the two men who are now the ward $
representatives, W. A. West and James
McClelland. No contest.
Ward 7 presents something worth
while to the voters. Ralph Thompson
was elected at the primaries and is safe.
| But there was close vote between H
L. Clark and DR.. o. L. Scott at the pri-
'maries and this will have to be decided
at the November election. Accord
ing to general rumor, the contest will
be most interesting.
Like Banquo's ghost, there is another
proposition that will not down in Salem
and that is what il known as the Rich.

the coming election. This is the PROPOSE.
ton of bonding the city Of Salem for
all street Improvements and that these
improvements shall be paid from an an

city for all street Improvements was
