The aerial forces are now care
fully scouting the ground, and the
positions of the enemy are so we'll

"As % the reg s4lations. 1t must be
remembered that it is never COM
pulSorM issue, nor is the individual
compelled to take it when it is is
sued. " The practice is even so far
in the hands of the Unit Comman-
ders that they have discretions whe-
ther ol Eot rum shall be distributed
under any conditions, ana some of
them never distribute it, but these
exceptions are few and most Uuit
Commanders distribute rum in con
dition of cold and rain, but, as stat
ed. the important fact is officially
given us that no man in the armed
forces is ever at any time compelled
to take rum. and it is entirely with
in his province whether or not he
desires his ration. The official in
formation further states that the
regulations governing the issuance
are not printed in the Kings Reg
ulations, because, for the reasons as
explained, it is in no sense conf
pulsory order.
From the above it is very clear
that the Dunkard preacher is very

Within the German borders 4 like
popular ferment is spreading and the
suffering people are more and more de.
handing peace, some journals even
openly and bitterly assailing the Kaiser
and his dynasty as the sole obstacles
thereto. Expressions of deep despair
are common in the newspapers, for at
last, throughout all Germany, they are
awakening to realization of the omi-
nous fact that Americas Intervention
has sealed the doom of their mighty
armies.
No single fact is so significant as the
universal spread Of the peace move
ment. Both Austria and Germany are
intriguing for peace, and these efforts
begun over two years ago, are now be-
coming frantic. Germany is doomed,
and her leaders know it, and her peo-

OUR PARTY'S NEW LEADER

THE Republican Party, that once
! saved the Union when the Demo-
cratic party sought its destruction; that
for more than half century mas
brought great prosperity to the Nation
and won for its name honor imperlsh'
able-this great party, chastened by Its
past losses and once more united after
two mournful quadrenniums of division
and defeat, has had the wisdom to
choose as its leader in the next Ma
tional campaign, Will H. Hays. "a
young Lochinvar come out of the
West" to lead the party on to new
triumphs.
Mr.. Hays though young in years is
cid in political experience, and the fact
that the National Committee 0verruled
all the platform suggestions Of the old
leaders and chose his plan as the one
best fitted to win, attests that wisdom.
He has the distinction of having
phrased the briefest platform ever
formulated in the history of American
parties, it's single plank broad enough
to support the mightiest issues, these
three momentous words. Twin THE
WAR;"
Mr.. Hays, who is one OF those rare
products of society and government,
a natural born leader of men. possesses
a native genius for politics, politics in
the noblest expression of the term, the
science Of government.
Though he has pleasing personality,
ne is bold fighter. not less courageous
than courteous. as his late sharp retort
upon the bumptions Tumulty proves.
Mr.. Hays through the Publicity De-
partment Of the National Committee,
is waging dignifed campaign warfare
of argument based upon facts, legiti-
mate criticisms of the blunders and evils
of the Administration whose correction
is necessary to win the war.
He never descends 70 vituperation,
but in all his sometimes shaxr utter
ances discloses q candor and fairness
that makes his words all the more ef-
fective.
His speech August 30th at Indianapo-
dis before the Editorial Association, IS a
strong. eloquent, patriotic appeal which
will arouse Republicans everywhere to
q clear sense Of their duty to country
and party in way that will repeat
next November on a huge scale the
splendid victory just won in Maine.

HUN DEFEATS EVERYWHERE

GERMANY is meeting disaster on all
sides. Not only has her boas tful,

France, been turned into a rout that
has almost driven the Huns out Of
France, but all her allies are suffering
like defeats.
In the Balkans the Bulgars are flee
eng like scared sheep before the armies
of the Allies from Salonica, helped by
the Greeks and the Serbs, till Servia is
almost freed and Bulgaria itself about
to be invaded after the capture ct its
military base with great quantities Of
munitions Of war and supplies.
The Turkish armies of 100000 have
oeen totally overwhelmed in Palestine,
10000 of them just captured and 10000
more penned up for the same fate, by
General Allenby, the British command
'er who few months ago electrified
all Christendom by replacing upon the
turrets OF Jerusalem the cruel Crescent
with the peaceful Cross. These two
defeats will shortly put Bulgaria and
Turkey out of the war.
The treacherous Bclsheviki are also
being cleaned up in Russia. by the Al
