The latest information from the south ‘is that Villers-Bretonneux apparently has been etaken as aresult of a brilliant British counter attack, and not only has the town vitually been cleared of the enemy, but a large portion of the or- iginal positions north and south of it have been re- claimed. German dead are heaped about the un- are in British camps. In the north, Mont Kemmel has been attacked desperately by a great force of German troops especially trained for mountain warfare. chaete, Kemmel, Scherpenberg, Mont Rouge, Vidaign and Mont Descats. This pretentious program has as its object the forcing | of the allies to pull back their lin | jed the: o the north still further. | INTRODUCE NEW |TWO MILLION SUBSCRIBED | | ON SUGAR BEET ACREAGE. | | West om ‘Sugar Co. today subs | for 000,000 worth of liberty bonds, | | OVERMAN BILL ebraska, Montana, Wyoming and | @ paresis asee outh Dakota.

RRR eee so far. It was rumored Thursday that Kemmel, a dominating height rghem, had been taken by the enemy, but this has not been confirmed. ‘ Allies Were Prepared. That only slight gains have been made anywhere along the two fronts which have been subjected to attack is proof that the allies are prepared to defend their positions. In the last three weeks the Germans have hurried up heavy cannon to the Somme battle ground and have marched many fresh divisions to the points where they have been held for the moment of at- tack. Their failure to do more than gain almost insignificant bits of ground is one of the most encouraging fea- tures of the fighting that is now going on and which may be looked upon as the\third phase of the great German offensive, Raiding Operations. Raiding operations are reported along the French lines east of Mont Didier. It is officially announced at the Hague that the negotiations between Germany and Holland “are not pro- gressing satisfactorily.” The Dutch foreign minister has declined to give the details of the situation between The attempt on Mont Kemmel is another move in the) apart trom that which has been fired ‘i a A s oaonugaes A Germans obvious scheme to get control of a chain of hills running|and that which has ben lost in the FRENCH LINE UNCHANGED | the two countries, which is admittedly ., * * Pi * 2 quiet delicate. east to west in this sector and including such elevations as Wyts-| dumps amounted to Winston Spencer Churchill, British minister of mupitions, speaking in the house of commons, said that not- withstanding the strain on production ed and the losses in arms and material es and on a similar scale, but by the Positions durin, 2 $ $ 4 onze! : yee is g the great battles of the last end of last week all the los had PRETO month, the los nad. been mate good | more than made good.
