as a measure Of retaliation.
Two French officials were assas-
sinated at Buer. in the Reeklingha
sen district, Saturday night.
This warning accompanied a .sen-
eral announcement that the French
military authorities, because of the
increase in acts of violence and in
sabotage in various part of the Ruhr
would take the severest measures to
stop these attacks.
Quiet now prevails in Buer after
the assassination of the two French
officials and the subsequent shoot
ings, during which seven Germans
were killed.
German newspaper reports that
the German officials have evidence
that the French victims were shot by
French chasseurs are denied by the
French authorities. The French say
they have in their possession a II
volver of the type carried by the
German security police, found near
the scene of the sh, oting. They con-
tend that their reports tend to show

Fifty Polish and German workers

by the spirit of good fellowship
which exists there. There the men of

a smoke, the latest sporting dope,
and for various informa ton. "Meet

for the young men of the city when
they are arranging an engagement.
Steve is a genial host and knows
how to cater TO the wants of his

Mrs. w. r. Pattangall of this city,
the woman member from Maine of

tee, in statement made Wednes-
day, said that the Democratic
women congratulate the Republican
women on obtaining woman to act
for them on the Republican Nation
al Committee, even If only in an
advisory capacity.
1.-THE Republican National Com
mittee will show wisdom If 1t con-
suits these women and take their
advice" continued Mrs. Pattangall.
Had they followed such a course
in 1920 many pitfalls might have
been avoided as the woman's point
of view is needed equally with
mans.
1.-The Democratic party so hon
ored us in 1918 and in 1920 went
farther and gave us equal voting
power by having our state delega-
ton elect us to the national COM
mittee. No doubt the Republicans
will do likewise in 1924 when the
next Republican national conven-
ton meets.
Maine is particularly fortunate
to be represented by Mrs. Guy P.
