With those promises in mind each side has been doing its utmost to re the aid of the Poles in maintaining their armies, but- Ger- many has apparently seen the desira- bility of making ,a master stroke and of getting increased enlistments now and for that reason it has proceeded to give away those Russian provinces while it is still in possession of them, but it is a noteworthy fact in this connection that it does not include Galicia or the Polish provinces in Ger- many in this momentous historic cvent. i Germany is doubtless looking to off- set the aid which the allies have se- cured through the entry of Rumania. it sees a chance to get Polish rein- forcements and it knows how the Polés have looked in the past upon Russian promises.

The electicn which takes place to- day is of such importance .that it should result in the greatest vote that to cont indepen has ever been registered on the occa-|. sion of a presidential election. It has decided by the people who for one rea- son or another absent themselves from the polls on election day.

The town, which is sit- uated on the north ccast of the island of Thanet, is 74 milcs east of London, 20 miles northeast of Canterbury and 20 miles directly north of Dover. In times of peace steamers plied daily be- tween Margate and London as well as to Dover, and at the height of the sea- son there was a daily service to Calals, Boulogne, and Ostend, the last named resort being only 65 miles away in a northeasterly direction. “Between Margate and Ramsgate is the quiet and attractive little watering place known as Broadstairs, the name being derived from the broad ‘stair’ or gap in the cliff which leads down to the sea. This charming epot was a favorite retreat for two of England's greatest novelists—George FEliot and Charles Dickens. The cottage which Dickens oocupied is now called ‘Bleak House', but it has no associations with the story of that name.

A general purview of tho theatre of operations in the Somme region shows that the Franco-British front on July 1 ran directly southward from _the west of Thiepval, a strongly fortified German position, to Fricourt. There the Allies’ line turned sharply east- south-eastward and passed to the north of Carnoy to beyond Maricourt, whence it once more turned directly south to Maucourt, the extreme end the offensive movement. This was the front, somewhat over forty kilometers in length, chosen by the Allies for their forward push. The French were disposed along about half of the southern cnd of this line and the following details deal solely with their part in the operations. The first phase of the battle lasted five days and during this period four lines of German trenches, and in some places five, all constructed of rein- forced concrete, were carried by the French troops. Numbers of villages, including Curlu, Becquincourt, Dom- pierre, Bussus, Fay, Feuilleres, Bus- cort, Herbecourt, Assevillers, Belloy- en-Santerre, Estree, Hem and Harde- court, were captured at the point of the bayonet, after terrific bombard- ment which left oniy the outlines, of the house foundations still standing. The attacking French forces were compelled to fight from cellar to cel- lar. in which large numbers of ma- chine-guns had been mounted by the Germans, who had taken shelter in strong force underground and had connected the brickwork caves by passages. In view of the nature ot this combat the French losses were very. small. On the other hand, the Germans. suffered extremely heavy casualties owing to the buildings crashing in upon them nwhile they were crowding in large bodies below. Nine thousand five hundred officers and men surrendered.
