The progressives, aided it in naid l>y democratic fund», are maintaining an organization in that •date; I,at competent observers believe that from K5 to 1*0 per cent o f the tiuli moose will vote for Hughe* and that the number who will support Wilson are negligible.

The 70 30 division applied to Kansas would give that state to the republicans by the following figures: republicans, 210,21»; democrats, 21*4,162. In Maine the result would be: repub lican», 77.HKM; democrats, 00,071. In Nebraska the figures should show: republicans, 114,37(1; democrats, 113,820. This is another hnirline of demarcation, but there is no bull moose ticket in N e braska this year, and while the contest will be a hard one, the indentions are that Hughes will curry the state. The same division of the progressive vote in Ohio would produce figures for 11)10 in this wise: republicans, 511,03k; democrats, 41**1,053. It is, therefore, u fair assumption that, in addition to retaining the states which disclosed a clear republiean plu rality in 11*14, nnd whirh assume a ma jority o f the electoral college, the re publican ticket will this year gain Kan sas, Maine and Ohio without <|Ucstion and secure for Hughes nnd Fairbanks i total of 320 out o f the 531 votes In the electoral college, with more than a fighting chance to odd the 23 votes o f Inilinnn nnd Nebraska to that number, making 341», or n majority o f 107.

A Musical and Novelty Performance That W ill Delight and Instruct You EASTWARD Cottage drove, Ore., Sept. 11.— (To the Kditor.)— I have been much inter ested in the several letters that have been printed in The Sentinel in regard to the Cottage Grove cannery. Will you allow' me to add n wordf 1 think I cun hit the nail right on the head. 1 think the principal reason that there has been so much trouble in sell ing sufficient stock to put the ennnery on its feet is because each fellow is afraid he is going to do just n little more than someone else. One man did not wish to put in over $5 because he was afraid that was all his neighbors would put in. Another would not go over $15 because someone else in like circumstances had said that was his limit. Nothing will ever he accomplished in this world by those who measure their stent by what the other fellow is doing. The men who have made a success in the world ure those who have taken little note o f what the other fellow Is doing, nnd no cooperntive concern can be successful until every fellow who will benefit does his full shnre regardless of what the other fellow will do. Here we are now with a good building nnd n good plant and nil of us are going to lose more by letting the ennnery lie idle than it would cost us to put it on its feet. I nm willing to be one to do my shnre. A STOCKHOLDER. Let your friend*- in other states know o f tho country you live in, nnd they mny want to come here too.

London.—The British and French, striking simultaneously north and south of the Homme, have further won Important successes. Haigs troops took another giant step forward In their drive against Bapaume, while Foeh extended his positions between Chaulnes and Peronne, greatly In- J creasing the menace to both these1 strongholds. In their advanee north of the Somme ' the British took an important step in their movement toward the encircle ment of Thlepval, obliterating the sal- ' tent that protruded into their lines be- j tween that place and Courcelette, and ! brought their front to within less than ; a mile of Urandcourt and the Albert- Bapaume road. By capturing Mouquet farm work and the Danube trench, Haig has eliminated the greatest ob- Staelea toward a direct northeast ad vance on Bapaume by the British. The British guns are now bombard ing Grandcourt, while Bapaume itself is almost in range of the heavy artil lery. 1 he success of the French south of the Somme likewise wipes out a dan gerous salient and brings their right wing nearer the point of the south from which the flank move on Per onne must be begun. Swiftly the French are clearing the whole sector south and southwest of Peronne and bringing nearer the isolation of that stronghold. The allied attack in Picardy is daily growing in momentum. The Britit.h advance Is exhibiting such power that It is no longer necessitating constant pauses for the consolidation of ground gained.

The Roumanian army is hastily fall ing! back upon the line running through Cxernavoda and Midzidiah to Oonstanzia on the Black Sea, a re treat at some places of mote than 60 miles, said a dispatch to the Cologne Volks Zeitung.

British Front in France.—The main theme of talk In the British army is the wonderful work of the new ar mored cars, used for the first time when the British smashed the Ger man’s third line of defense. Evidently their building was a close secret, the first the Germans knowing of their existence being when dawn came and they trundled across craters, trenches and tree stumps on to the German's second and third line de fences. Many battalions, following in their wake had nothing more to do than harvesters gathering sheaves as they follow the reaper and binder. B u lgars R e t re a tin g .
