Germany for a month has almost daily announced that the Anglo- French offensive has ended. But the French and British for four weeks have almost every day dug more and more deeply into the German front.— Review. ------ o----- . There is much truth, and especially so in certain counties in Oregon, in what Col. E. Hofer in an address’be- fore the State Editoral association at Medford said to the editors: “Now, for some of the commonest obstacles to success. 1 place politics first. It is the biggest load you have to carry —running a true blue party organ. Your loyalty to the party is accepted, you are tagged and labeled as reliable for the ticket, and you are passed up as a white chip.

It will be years before America re­ alizes what this battle meant to us as well as to those engaged. But in two years since the battle there been a partial clearing away of mists that envelop the issues of war at first. We know more of history of modern Europe and politics than ever before. Events leading up to the war have been have studied. Reason and _ judgment _ begun to assert themselves over bia? and racial prejudice. That is a war of ideals, and an overwhelming majority of the people now see that the very ideals we cherish was at stake at the Marne. Greater battles have since been fought, measured by numbers and length of contest. But they merely push back the wave which the Marne started backward. Here Germany lost the war. Here civilization was spared from the triumph of autocrat force. On one side were superior general­ ship and exalted courage; on the other preponderance of numbers and armamant. Was it only chance that inflicted upon Germany that irrepara­ ble blow? "W WISE and Ilk.
