St. Quentin is the key to the Belgian line of communications, upon which General Von Kluck depends for the revictualing of his army. Jf the Ger mans lose this they will be forced either to retreat upon General Von Boehm's reserves to the eastward or stay and be forced to surrender when the allies' encircling movement is con. MZ2 Plffhting for St. Quentin Purioun. Furious onslaughts, first by one and then by the other of the rival armies, marked the fighting about St. Quentin. The French detachment of the ad vanced force which swnng around to the west and northward of Von Kluck's main position at Noyon and succeeded in occupying St. Quentin, were valiant ly defending the city against greatly superior forces, but up to tonight re ports from the front did not Indicate any appreciable gains on either side. General Joffre is hurrying rein forcements' to every threatened sec tion along the whole allied line and the new British expeditionary force and a large body of French reserves are reported already to have taken their places on the firing line. On the center the bombardment of the German line continues incessantly, the French feeling out the German positions in an effort to locate the weak places.

Of the 178 panks and trust companies under the supervision of Superintendent Sargent, the state ments of 162 as to conditions on Sep tember 12 have been received. "These statements show Interesting changes in condition since the last call of June SO, said Mr. Sargent i Fifty-four banks have Increased their loans in spite of a decrease in deposits. Thirty-nine banks have increased their loans, their deposits also show ing an Increase. Forty Beduced Xioan. Forty banks reduced their loans with a corresponding redaction in their deposits.

At 7:30 all the seats were filled: Then dozens of more chairs were brought in and benches were pro vided. Still the people came. Before 8 o'clock the walls were lined with men and women standing. The entrance filled to a jam, and at least 200 per sons were turned away. Audience Is Spellbound. The governor began speaking at 8:10 and did not finish until 9:45. and both men and women stood throughout that time and gave the closest atten tion. Many women who had come with children held large boys and girls on their laps, patiently, too in terested In the gripping revelation tbe governor was making to show indica tlons of weariness. Women comprised over one-third of the audience. At one point when the governor vividly pictured the position Dr. Withycombe. the Republican candidate for governor, whose chosen theme is "harmony." would be in when . the crowd that expects to run the legis lature swoods down upon the state house, several in the audience shouted: "He will never get there." This same cry was repeated a mem ber of tiroes, as - the governor drove home his shafts of logic and made so plain the probable results to the state if a "harmony" candidate was sent to occupy the chair of the chief executive. Popular O-overnment la Sanger, "Thereis a movement on foot to .an nihilate popular government in this state," declared the governor. r "The Oregonlan is behind the movement. Mr. Piper of tbe Oregonian wants to be a political boss. He has named 'Pat McArthur for congress and Booth for the senate. He helped to name legislative ticket in Multnomah county. He approves of Lair Thompson, 'swamp land angel, for president or the senate. He approves Gus, Moser, and all the rest of the bunch. "He called in Attorney W. D. Fenton and had him draft the measure in tended to restore the assembly. In all that it might be ; launched with whoop, Dr. Withycombe made a Bpeech for it on the day it was filed. But all didn't go well, and now they aren't making much noise about it. If you want Withycombe for gov ernor, elect him. If yon want Moser, stand by him. ' If you want the rest of the gang, all well and good, but don't, for goodness sake, let them annihilate the direct primary, because If you do you-will never get it back again. ; "Their only argument lor tbe assem bly is that you haven't enough brains to elect your own ornciais. And tbe gang wants to get back to tne old sys tem. If they can name the orficials, they don't care who performs tbe func tion of electing them." . Governor West delivered three previ ous addresses during the day, at Mo. lalla. Barlow and Canby, talking in all five and a half hours, but lie did not show signs of fatigue as he ripped into the records of the men who are now seeking to tie up and deliver this state into the hands of the people's foes. : - . l Reviews Work of Democrats. He reviewed Senator Chamberlain's administration, when he was governor, and 1 his own administration, saying that the cry has been raised that; there Is need for a Renublioan arovernor. He said the way to decide whether there was need for a Republican gov ernor was to decide -whether the Dem ocratic governors for the last eight or 10 years had' worked in the Interest of tbe people. .- 1 He said that Chamberlain was 'the first governor who ever took an inter est in the common school fund, and secured the enactment of laws for its protection . . . , - "Alwayjfore everyTaw passed re- latlng to MJxa school fund." he said, BANKS LEGITIMATE DEMANDS Chamberlain, and Dr. Smith Lauded It en tion of yarnss Brings Instant Re sponse From Audience Addressed by JMton A. Miller xst aright. United States Senator Chamberlain's name was greeted with cheers at the county fair at McMinnville yesterday, whin Milton A. Miller, collector of internal revenue, mentioned him as having occupied the most prominent place in the senate 'ever accorded a Pacific coast senator. ' rr. C. J. Smith, Democratic candidate for governor, was also cheered when his name was mentioned. Mr. Miller found T. T. Geer speaking for James Withycombe, Republican candidate for governor and took occasion to reply to remarks made by Geer. That Senator Chamberlain, when he was governor, and the present gov ernor. Oswald West, vetoed 220 bills during their terms of office, thus sav ing the people over 82.000,000 and that Dr. Smith was the man to follow them in the chair was Mr. Miller's argu ment "The man in the governor's chair must be a man with enough nerve to ao these things, declared the speak er. rue people, through these 220 vetoes, have been saved more than 82,000,000. At the last session of the legislature Governor West showed to what extremes a legislature could go when he cut to nieces the omnibus ana appropriation bills which carried even his own salary and vetoed the measure, it was then passed over his veto. Now he Is blamed for ex travagance. As a matter of fact the xtepuDucan legislature Is responsible. Hiven as Chamberlain and West have done, so will Dr. Smith do if he is elected. He has the nerve to back np his convictions. We must place him .In the chair." Germans to Sink All Prizes of War Admiralty Issues Orders to Cruisers to Destroy All Merchantmen Taken, Including; American Cargoes. Washington. Sept. 26. The state department has learned unofficially that the German admiralty has giv en orders to its men-of-war that ao merchantmen of Its enemies are to be taken prisoners but are to be sunk immediately. Bucn drastic action la - necessary, Germany explained, because its ports to which the prizes could be taken are so few and far apart that the value of the prizes would not justify the time and effort it would take to get them to port. In this connection. It was learned' tonight that the carrying out of this policy has already resulted in the sending to the bottom of several American cargoes carried in British ships. Several British ships have been sunk along the Brazilian coast.

He told of his appointment by Cham berlain as state land agent, and of how Governor Chamberlain stood by him when his investigations involved some of Chamberlain s friends and great pressure was -brought to bear on the governor to have the investigations (-called of f. r -"-.. "Mr. Booth, his opponent. Is said to be a successful business man," stated the governor. "He is Bald to be a mil lionaire. The only question is. Where did he get it? He has tried to explain where he got It. But I know where he got it. I know because I got the in formation when I was in the land of fice, and if they attempt to play any dirty tricks on Chamberlain I am go ing to tell you people where he got it Booth Eept Els Minions. Booth made millions out of timber lands. Chamberlain also made mil lions out of timber lands, but he was working for the public and he turned his into the school fund. A Because Booth kept his millions, and Chamberlain turned his into the school fund, the Oregonian now wants to elect Booth because of his wealth," The governor dug up an old cam paign poster, printed when Chamber lain was running for the senate be fore, and read the promises he had made then, and gave illustrations to prove that all of them had been kept. Then he compared Chamberlain's recotd with that of Booth, and the big audi ence plainly showed that its sympathy was with the man who has made good as chief executive and as United States senator. M Taking up a discussion of the legis lature and the gubernatorial candi dates, the governor warned his hearers that his experience - had taught him that harmony, as preached by Dr. Withycombe, was not a good thing for the taxpayers. j Close Harmony Hot Desired. .1 Tou don't want harmony," he said.
