AMERICANS DRIVE
BACK BOLSHEVISTS
With thn Allied Army of th Dvina.
American troops fighting desperate
ly near Kadish have driven back Bol
shevist troops which made an advance
there. Th Bolshevists also launched
attacks on the Onega sector and bom
barded the allied front The Ameri
cans came into battle along the Petro
grad road and in the frozen swamps
that border it The battle was fought
in snow from two to four feet in depth.
American forces captured Kadish
after a display of gallantry that evok
ed the admiration of th allied com
manders. Special car has been taken
of th American wounded. There
wer some casualties but thay war
small In comparison U those inflicted
upon th enemy.
The enemy did aot occupy Kadiab
because tb barrage fir from th
Americana mad th place untenable.
Shells falling on the frossn ground
spread their sones of destruction twice
aa far as they would under normal
conditions.
When voters write ou the ballot at
the general election next month the
name of their choice for justice of the
supreme court to fill the vacancy
caused by the death ot Justice Moore
they should also make a cross in the
little square at the left ot the name.
This wfll Insure the validity ot the
rote cast although the law does not
require the making of the cross. At
torney General Brown has passed on
this point in an opinion to Gilbert
Hedges, district attorney at Oregon
