Just at the present time Germany s pinning great faith not only in the juccess of the new drive which it is ““planning azainst the northern Rus- ‘sian line with the purpose of cutting !'

But while Germany 1s doing its ut- ost to Influence Russia, there are reasons for believing that it has nty to attend to In keeping its own llies in“line.

And in ad- dition to the fecling in these two sgountries the position in which both Bulgaria and Turkey find themselv #s such as to cause them to look _mbout for the best way out of the struggle at the least possible sacri- ‘fice. Germany will do its utmost to ‘endeavor to check any such thing but it may find itself helpless when the right time comes. g CLUB LICENSES. As the result of the large number of club licenses which have been is- sued in the state during the past few Fears, and the way in which these clubs have sprung up far beyond th intention of the provision when it was mdvocated and enacted, there has been much opposition to such legislation.

FIGHTING FOR DOUAL Tremendous effbrts are now being made by both the Writish and the Ger- ern end of the Himtlenburg line. There has been hard fighting in_that region ever since the Taster offensive was started but it has, grown in intensity. Both sides are putting forth every effort. The kaniser is bringing up large numbers of fresh troops. He is massing his artillery and a great num- ber of machins zuns between Lens 2nd Cambrai and the large losses which are taking place in that local- shows the determination not oniy| of the offensive but of those who are jdoing their utmost to prevent the \British from going abead. Notwithstanding the iacreased r=- sistance which Is beding offered the 2ilies are moving ahead. The prog- ress is slower than, it has been at some other points but it is a vital spot. General Haig ds bending ever: energy to gain this territory with its many vantage points and though it is ‘baing done with great sacrifices and with lessened speed each day's repor:’ recorvis advances, ¥ae capture of addl- tionel villages and more territory, while at the same time the ®¥ench are wonsolidating’ the ground which they {have gained and are preparing for further efforts under the direc- tion of General ivelle. Particularly anxious are the Brit- ish in gheir efforts to take Doual to the ncrth of Cambrai and before which there ane not the fortifications which are to be encountered at other points from Cambrai to Laon. The defenses there are of a different character ‘and men and: guns are being utlized by the Germans to make up for what is lacked in the way of other pre tion. If the British get th to Doual thdy will greatly menuce the whole Hindlenburg line and the efforts of the Gegmans at the presemt time is devoted 'to preventing such a pos- sibility. The steady advance of the allies, however, gives encouragement that their object will siowly. but sure- Iy be obtaimed. It is, however, no or- dinary strugsle as each side has had reason to thoroughly understand long before this. EDITORIAL NOTES. The man on the cormer says: Un- easy rests the head that's been out late. All talk about food in Germany is said to be barred, but there are, it is said, some people who had rather fight than eat. [ Even though they pronounced it @if- ferently than the German capital, there is no surprise that the people of Ber- Iin, Conn., want the name of the town changed.

Germany may get a crumb of com- fort out of the destruction that fts U- boats are causing, but that will not go far in feeding a nation and army of hungry people. Now the German prisoners in Geor- gia have been found trying to make “near-beer” out of rye bread. Soms kind of trouble is usually brewing wherever they are located. The plan that is being tried out in Kansas of rounding up the tramps to work on the farms will result in great consumption of food there whether there is any greater work done or not.

Now the proposition that the milk- man is up against is this, that the prices of feeds have advanced. on an average of 60 per cent. over a year ago.

Consequently, in order to make both ends meet, he is asking for 12 cents per quart. If the price of milk had kept up with the price of grain, milk would Bow be selling for 13 cents per quart. We feel that if the consumers know the facts, they will understand that; the increase is ‘perfectly fair and just. Very respetfully, A MILK PRODUCER.

It has never been our opinion that prohibition was the wise way to un- dertake the removal of the evils of in- temperance, and we are still in doubt as to its wisdom while recognizing that, if the country concludes fnat its resistin gpowers are being tapped by jthe use of intoxicants, the manufac- ture and sale will be sooner or later prohibited throughout the nation.

Twice in the past six months a cor- responent of The Associated Press has travelled through the Mediterranean, on a trip to and from Indis. From In- dian ports to Port Sald there is, of course, practically no danger to be en- countered from hostile warcraft, but once the Suez Canal has been passed on the homeward voyage a ship is in constant perfl. A day or two after the ship left lombay the passengers were sum- fmoned to the ship’s boats to which they had been assigned, and the chief officer made the rounds, delivering in- structions which gave to many the first real danger was. “After we leave Port Said we shall be in the danger zone” he began. “Bach one of you will carry a life- belt about all the time. This is im- perative. Sometimes people get care- jess or are forgetful. This must not be. You should have the lifebelts with you night and day, carrying trem even to your baths with you.” The officer gave instructions as to how the Zifebelts were to be adjusted and continued: “In case we are torpedoed five short blasts on the ship's whistle will call you to the boats. You will come im- mediately, bringing such warm cloth- ing as you can snatch at the moment. The unmarried msn and those who ure travelling without their wives will see that ail women and children are in tho boats first.

More than one woman who was traveiling with Jittie children turned away white of face and thoughful. and for the thousandth time inspected the tiny lifebelts which she was carrving, to make sure that they were ready for her babies. From the beginning of the voyage no definite information as to when the ship would reach or leave was given to passengers. Im fact, there were few questions which one could zet answered. The correspondent tried to get the official number of passen- gers and asked whether any other neutrals were aboard, but he was told that the ship's officers had been for- bidden to give any information what- ever. After leaving Port Said even the emergency compass at the stern of the steamer was covered so that In- quisitive passengers could not tell what direction she was taking.

A crew of experienced gunners was on duty at the big gun in the stern day and night, ready to take the commander’s orders should the oc- casion arise. Two or threc men pas- sengers who appeared on the deck the first night with lighted cigars were roundly upbrided by the commander and were sent below. At Marseilles the first word of the new German edict regarding the sub- marine warfare was learned. and here all but 150 passengers, mostly second- class, were disembarked. The siip continued her voyage on February 1, the day set for' the beginning of the indiscriminate torpedoing. It is not permitted to name the route taken by the vessel, but it was a most peculiar one, which brought the liner into the channel many days overdue. From Marseilies on the trip was a continual horror to the ship's officers, for the wireless told them that ship: were going down all about them. Knowledge of these events was Kept from the paseenzers so far as pos- sible. but there were some things which could not be concealed.
