Fi FIFTEEN MILES T LONDON, Oct. 28, 3:55 a. in. The correspondent of the Times in North crn France sends tho following re Harding the fighting in Belgium under Tuesday's dnte: The British fire at Yprcs, after a elorions stand for five days against overwhelming odds, drove tho enemy fifteen miles. Tho German forces wcro commanded bv tho Bavnrinn crown princo who, it is reported has been wounded. "Tho British forces captured Lan gemarck, five miles northeast of Yprcs, on Friday niter inflicting enormous losses on the enemy and es tablished entrenched positions beyond the village. "At night after the roar of the can non had ceased, thero was suddenly a shrill whistlo and bushes soaked in petroleum broko into flames, throwing a glare over tho scene. Masses of men sprang up from the beet crops within a few hundred yards of onr trenches and with bugle sound, yell and song they came dash ing forward to our position. "Though taken by surprise, our brave men were not unprepared. They took their places in the trenches and held them, pouring a terrific fire into tho advancing hosts. "Answering with rifle and machine gun, tho enemy advanced, still with tho buglo playing and amid shouts of qioch! Ilochl" They were in dense ..uiasses and they fell by the hundreds. They got within thirty yards of the trenches when they re coiled. "Then came three blasts of a whistle, sounding the retreat. Our men sprang out of ,lhe trenches and went in among them with the bayonet. Tho slaughter wns terrible, and thero were many hand to hand encounters. "In tho dim glare of tho burning bushes some of the enemy threw down their arms and plended for mercy. No quarter, however, was given on either side. The work was too des perate for that. Bayonet and bullet did their work and the enemy was driven back on Holders. "A battery and several machine pins wero captured and thousands of prisoners were taken, including a gen eral and several other officers."

The genial doctor's campaign has not added any states manlike laurels to his brow, lie began tho campaign by regretting that Chinese coolie labor bad been driven out of the state in the '80's raising the issue of Chinese labor that lias been dead for thirty years. The next issue revived by Dr. Withycombe was "as semblyism," and the needed "fixing" of the direct prim ary law. Having been a candidate bofore the assembly, wliosc avowed object was to "put the knife to the hilt" into the Oregon system, ho defended the assembly and attacked the primary law. Dr. "Withycombc next attacked the proposed single item veto, declaring it a "dangerous two-edged sword" in the hands of the executive. These excursions into tho realm olitical created such a storm of opposition that the republican party managers "corked" up the candidate, who was ordered to confine himself to such statesmanlike subjects as the blue skies and "vordure-elad hills of a greater Oregon and the neces sity for hot and cold water in every farm house. "However, Dr. Withycombc wouldn't stay bottled up. In southcYn Oregon he again defended Chinese labor, again defended the assembly, and item veto, lie reaffirmed the harmony program and, avoiding particulars, discussed generalities. Instead of answering tho definite charges made by Governor West of incompetency and inefficiency in office as director of experiment stations, of waste of public funds and needless extravagance in failure to make good in the experiments conducted, Dr. Withycombe says: "I forgive him, for I believe he is in sane. What do you think of a governor who will attack the record of a man who has lived in Oregon forty years'?" As near as can be found out, Dr. Withycombc 's sole qualification for office is that he has lived in Oregon for forty years. As state veterinarian for ten years and as director of the experiment station for sixteen years, not only has he been well paid for living here for over a quar ter century, but he has acquired a large personal acquaint ance among the farmers, and having a genial personality, was naturally selected by the politicians as a man of so little force as to have made few enemies, a good vote-getting candidate who would be easily manipulated, with out being aware of it, in the executive office. Hence his nomination. Medford had a sample of Dr. Withycombc 's statesman ship when, uncalled for, he publicly, on the stump and in the newspapers, fought the establishment of the public market, predicting failure and declaring it no part of a farmer's or producer's business to attempt to market his produce, which should be left to the middle man. He de clared the market was a step backward in Medford. The people of Oregon need a real man for governor, a real representative of the people in the battle for a better government, a staunch believer in the people, to ward off the attacks of privilege. They need a good fighter to com bat legislative extravagance and corporation jobbery. They need a militant man of backbone and firmness to en force the law impartially. They need a man of even poise, of sound common sense and of proven business ability. Dr. Withycombe, though amiable and garrulous, has none of these qualifications. A motherly old soul, he lias no business in the chair of the chief executive of a great state like Oregon and the best thing that could possibly happen for Dr. "Withycombc s name and fame, is his de feat November 3. ONE GOOD TERM DESERVES ANOTHER AMONG the candidates Jackson county will be called to vote upon is one who particularly deserves re-election II. von der Hellen of Wellen, as state senator. Senator von der Hellen has the advantage of familiar ity with legislative methods. He has served four years in the senate and two in the house, and his record is a good one untainted by scandal. Through two sessions, Senator von der Hellen has made the fight for good roads and is largely responsible, as chairman of the senate highway committee, for the enab ling act that permitted the county to use its credit -by the issuance of bonds for highway work. As a member of the fisheries committee he fought for the interest of Jackson county sportsmen. In many other ways he has been able to materially advance the county's welfare. Senator von der Hellen secured the passage by the leg islature of the Ashland Normal school millagc bill, upon which the people will vote this fall. In the fight between the legislative machine and Gov ernor West, Senator von der Hellen usually voted with tho governor and helped to sustain many of his vetoes. He was not affiliated in any way with the machine, but al ways voted according to his best judgment. It would be a mistake to send a new man, who would be handicapped during his first session by lack of legis lative experience and methods. It is a distinct advantage to have the benefit of such experience. ' Always kindly and affable, a gentleman of tho old school, Senator von dor Hellen's representation of Jack son county has always been creditable and deserving of appreciation. Ho should be re-elected.
