(By mail to Now York) A great deal has been said and writton concerning the patience with which the British public submitted to all restrictions placed upon them as a result of the wnr, of the uncomplaining spirit with which tuoy bore their bur dens and of tho unanimity with which they supported all branches of their government. This is true to a great extent, but licit entirely so. There has been a min ority which has criticized nnd found fault very freely and a very consider able majority which has done tho same thing with reference to some few things. The censorship, for instance, has been roundly denounced as needlessly strict unintelligent and pigheaded. It is ac cused of suppressing news which would liava fired tne country s patriotic en thusiism ami enci.uruged enlistment. It is declared thnt it has violated all principles of intcrnntionnl fair play, that it has discriminated; thnt it has suppressed news which the public posi tively had a right to know, and that it has suppressed much other news, which, if perhaps not very important to the public, had nothing whatever to do with the war. , Sore About Navy.

If the people re garded It exclusively as a war tax may bo they would take it with better grace, but it has been their experience that, once imposed, the income tax sticks, ex cept when it goes up, and the present increase is generally considered perma nent. The people yesterday called on to turn over from one-twelfth to one tenth, or even more, of their incomes to the state, naturally do a great deal of grumbling, Fiuully, the admiralty has came in for much verbal rough treatment nnd some unfavorable comment in the news papers.

London, Nov. 23. Preparations for a German invasion of England wero be lieved here today to be in progress on the other side of the North sea. Reports were current that the kaiser's warships at kmden evidently wero pre paring to put to sea. Mysterious troop movements were proceeding along the coast. The entire Bolginn population of the coast towns of Zeebrugge and K.noclte had been transferred to Bruges, The inhabitants of Saint Nicholas had received orders to movo immediately to Antwerp. All things wore taken as meaning that the Germans were engaged in some undertaking concerning which they wanted none but Germans to know any thing as yet.

The vanguard of General Villa's army halted Sunday on its advance on Mexico City at Cazadcro, 50 miles from Tula, where resistance was expected. Several miles of railroad tracks have been destroyed and Villa awaited re pairs before proceeding. This work probably will require a wcok. Villa himself was at Celaya today.

W. T. Mason, former London correspondent for the United Press) Now York, Nov. 23. General Von. Hindenburg and his German followers have now reached the most critical part of their journey from the kaiser' frontier to Warsaw. They sre at Lowicz, planted straddle wise across the railroad lines from the northwest, which at this point begins to converge with tho line from the southwest or Warsaw. The straddle is? IS miles long and the angle formed by the two railroads extends to the east ward for 45 miles before its apex i reached at the metropolis of Russian Poluud. This engle must be held by the Ger mans in order to command both rail roads. Hitherto Von Hindenburg ha been compelled to protect only tho Una from the northwest. Now, however, he must mako sure of the one from tha southwest, too, or accept the grave risk of being flanked. This risk, oven with both railroads) under German control, Is a constant sno. Von Hindoiibnrg is truly "'living dan geronsly," in full accord 'with Nlcfj sches teachings, Taking Big Risks. Besides tho railroad angle, there is river angle alivo with perilous possi bilities, into which tho Germans are entering. This river angle Is formed by th . Vistula. After passing almost straight across Russian Poland from the German frontier, the stream bends sharply t tho southward just before Warsaw isj ' reached, forming a right angle with it self. Warsaw is on tho north and south leg of the angle, nbout ten miles from tb angle itself. On tho east and west leg, also about ten miles from the bend, in Novo Georgicvsk, a first class fortres of great strength. Into this man-, bntweon the towns el! Warsaw and Novo Georgievsk, the Ger mans must venture, if thoy are flunked or caught in the roar, they will be driv en between theso two fortresses and, the Vistuln, with disaster inevitable. To some extent offsetting this risk is the fact that no Hussian commander hns jot shown the capacity for directing such a coup. Noverthloss, the fact re mains that at no previous time since thor war bngnn has there been so splendid an opportunity for a devastating stroke m Von Hindenburg is now offering to th Russians, Outnumbered 2 to 1. Indeed, neither in the east, nor th west has a comniunder yot shown a bold ness cnmpnruhlo with thut displayed by Vim llinderbiirg in his present drive, which involves dnngers which probably noboily but he would risk. Ilis'army is certainly outnumbered 3 to 1, if not morn heavily, and th ubnmiiiable condition of the Russian, roads makes it hard for it to profit by its nnturnl mobility, through which 1 less difficult country, it would enjoy considoruble advantngo over the Rus sians. Von Hindenburg is of the type, how ever, which reveals In such huiiilicnp. His open criticism nf the kaiser' strategy at army maneuvers during ponce times was what caused him to be on the retired list when the war sturted. In the face of the national crisis, ho uud the ruler mndo tip their quarrel und Vou Hindenburg nturtixi ahead to win the title of prince, which will be conferred on him if he save Kastera Germany from a Russian in vasion, MARION TURKEYS FORJHANKSGIVING That southern Oregon, or any other pint nf the world, has untiling upon th Wilametlo valley, and particularly Mar ion county, In the way of producing i hone nnd succulent turkeys, is evl di'iu oil by the big shipment of 50 splen did s eciinens which was received by loc'il markets this morning from Hub bard, this county.
