Physicians' Destha

As an example of how malicious and
seemingly innocent is German propa-
ganda IL the United States may be
cited the rumors and the actual facts
about mortality among the allied
physicians at the western front.
Recently the actual statistics were
produced, which showed that the bat
tie risks of physician are scarcely
more than those Of civil life. Between
the beginning Of the war and June Is,
1917, only 1876 French and English doc
tors have been killed, 707 wounded and
82 cut down by disease.

Berlin says the German supreme

it asserts, was unobserved by the

so far as to claim that the German
obiectives have been fully attained.

counter offensive. This miscarried
because a break through has been pre-
vented.
THE task of the German troops
fighting on the southern bank of the
Marine was thereby entirely fulfilled
and the further holding of the lines
there was unnecessary. The German
command could now withdraw the
troops to the northern bank for fresh
important tasks" the message adds.

Washington, July 20.-The loss of

cruiser San Diego and the cause of
the ships destruction still were unde-
termined tonight at the Navy depart

Belief that the San Diego was a

Among the survivors, plnion
seemed to be equally divided as to

German reserves, rushed up to the
western side of the Soissons-Cha-
teau Thierry-Rheims salient. have
slowed down the progress made by
the French and Americans, but ap-
parently have been unable to do more
than check it here and there along
the front. The advance made by the
allies in the first hours of the great
counter stroke has not been main
tanned, but it is evident that hardly
anywhere has the allied thrust been
stopped.
At Outskirts of Scissors.
Reports from the front of battle
indicate that the French and Ameri-
cans have reached the edge of the
plateau to~the southwest of scissors
ard only scant mile and a half
from the center of the city. South
ward along the line, the allies have
almost reached the Soissons-C Chateau
Thierry road, thoroughfare of great
strategic Importance, while further
down toward the Marne they are
steadily forging ahead, in spite of de-
termined resistance.

From the Marine towards Rheims
the French and Italians have ad-

Battle Front Extended.
The fire of battle is spreading
slowly down the line towards Chateau
Thierry. There have been reports
that the Germans in this region have
been removing their heavy guns pre-
paratory to retiring should the allied
drive toward Scissors 60 on.
Military experts say that if the
allied wedge south of Scissors goes
much further it will force German
retirement at least as far as the
Vesle river.

Within Artillery Distance of
Railroad Junction; Crown
Princes Army in Sack.
BY Associated Press.

With the American Army on the
Aisne- Marne Front July 2O-The ad-
vance along the Soissons- Chateau
Thierry road has brought the allies
within artillery distance of the juno
ton of the railroad serving the Ger
mans as line of communication. The
junction already is under fire and
unless the desperate attempt which
the Germans are making to hold is
successful, thousands of the crown
princes men may be cut off and
forced to retreat. The fighting is COM
paratively light east of Chateau
Thierry. except at the river, where
the most stubborn resistance of the
Germans was unable to check the
allies, who, at one point, moved for
ward half mile.
Germans Forced Into Open.
Information from beyond Chateau
Thierry indicates the beginning of a
movement by the Germans that may
develop into an effort by the crown
prince to extricate his army.
The character of the fighting has
been radically altered, and the Ger
mans have been forced into the open.
The trenches run in such manner
as to leave none into which they can
fall back, forcing them to depend upon
those they hastily construct There
has been a marked decrease in Ger
man aerial activity and the big guns
are less active. The greater part
of the German airplanes appear to be
used in patrolling their own lines,
The French and Americans
squeezed the sack in which the Ger
mans appear to be caught somewhat
tighter Saturday. At midday they
had made an average gain of more
than a mile along the Chateau
Thierry- -Soissons highway while
another gain of similar distance had
Eeen made south of the Marne and
east of Chateau Thierry.
Two Units Take $3.50 Prisoners.
The Germans this morning increased
their artillery fire to degree greater
than any attained since Thursday.
One American unit since Thursday
has taken 1889 prisoners, including
81 officers, while another American
unit on the northern front has cap
tured 2,26l, including 81 officers
Among the prisoners were col
onel and two majors, in one group
The firing on both sides increased
after daylight, but the allied guns
were much more effective as reports
from the aviators and observation
balloons on the enemy positions came
in. There were numerous b.mbing
raids by the airmen this morning.
The northern half of the Scissors
Chateau Thierry line is now beyond
Werzy, to the east, and there have
been bitter struggles in this territory,

Americans last night southeast OF
Munster resulted in a penetration oi

from 500 to 600 meters and the cap

artillery preparation which lasted a.;
minutes. The enemy suffered heavy
casualties.

Mullen Urges All Politics Stand
Adjourned Except Democrat
ic and Mass Meeting
Idea Prevails.

Whatever agreement, if any, the
"Jims" may have made with the
Jacks" to split the representation of
Douglas county in the democratic
state convention at Hastings on a
$3.50 basis, it is now mere scrap
of paper" torn into smithereens by
the action of the, democratic county
committee.
The "Jims" had their steam roller
out in smooth working action right
from the start, and they used it with
utter abandon.
1t all came about when former May
or Dahlman, in motion, proposed IN
stead of the old ward caucuses, to
choose the 165 delegates for Douglas
county at a mass convention at the
Swedish auditorium at 8 o'clock next
Saturday night.
Elimination of Jacks"
The motion was adopted without a
dissenting vote and the result, which
will be the elimination of the Jack"
as political unit at the convention
unless the 'Jims" take pity on them,
is q foregone conclusion.
Arthur Mullen, who happened to
be presept, presumably as a casual
visitor, made a speech in which he
commended the county committee
men present on the wisdom of their
action. He said this was time when
there should be no factional differ
ences amongst democrats and he was
satisfied none existed. except in the
minds of some self-seeking persons
Mr.. Mullen declared the president
wanted democratic senate and con-
gress to Uphold him and if members
of the opposition party were elected
it would demoralize the morale of the
United States army overseas and help
the enemy, because it would 'be a re-
pudiation of the president.

reduction of thirty cents hundred in
the price of bran, which was an

Administrator Innes.
Men who had contemplated selling
their dairy herds because of the high
cost of feed have changed their
minds. Leading dairy men from many
sections of the country have informed
the food administration that the re-
duction in the price of bran has given
great encouragement to the dairy
men and farmers of Kansas.
The basis for the reduction of the
price of bran was worked out in
Washington, but the application of
the rule set in Washington was work.

The millers attended the conferences
and worked out the percentage of re-
duction according to the rules formu-

INTHE SKUNK BUSINESS

Chas. c. Smalley, " miles west of
Balko, has, so far as we have been
able to find out, the only industry of
its kind in Beaver county, namely:
Raising skunks for commercial pur-
poses. For some time past, Mr. Small
ey has been engaged in this work as
side line, and has had as many as
eighteen skunks in his pens at one
time. From now on, however, he ex-
poets to import some high-bred males
of the narrow-stripe variety, build
more pens, and provide for breeding
and feeding the animals on large
scale. Much waste matter is used in
feeding which can be used in no other
manner.
Mr.. Smalley has made careful
study of the work in which he is en-
gagged, and when his business develops
to the point where he has several hun
bred skunks and can turn off that
many every year, which he plans to
do, he will have very profitable bust
ness.-Beaver Democrat.
