The guarded announcements of the two allied nations, while evidently worded in such a way as to leave open a verbal escape in case of unexpected reverses, may also be interpreted as paving the way for a final triumphal declaration. From day to day they no awaited and expected is a general retirement of the immense German army.

$Ys^- have grown more optimistic though ni-j.' less moderate. What is now awail

There can be little doubt that thf allies' successes have been won through the constant access of reinforcements. Germany has done what she could, but there were comparatively few fresh men to send to the relief of the army In France. The allies, whose work has been wholly in the French field, haJve continually strengthened their forces, and have given their more war-worn fighters opportunity to rest. It is now definitely announced that 70,000 British Indian soldiers have been in the fighting for the past two days. This is but one indication of the superior advantages of the allies in the way of reserve supplies of human units.

Unless the German commanders execute some remarkable coup it seems likely that within a comparatively few hours the tide of battle, which has ^3een setting against them, will over)®4vhelm the invaders. If such shall be ,he result it may mark the end of the erman infvasion, and the war may ter a new phase.

FORT WAYNE'S TROUBLES.

The Fort Wayne News stands without the gates and laments this woeful lamentation "The condition of the Main street "court house steps and the sidewalk in front of the court house on Main street is a blighting disgrace to the community. The steps and the sidewalk h$f*e'apparently not been cleaned since Vv'the

year that the court house was ded-

j: icated, and the foul smelling loafers who hibernate on the steps do not add

L--.

to the attractiveness of the scene." Here in Terre Haute the surround- & ings of the court house and city hall were never more pleasing to the eye.

While the city hall building itself 4 might be overhauled, the park place about the building was never more attractive and would do credit to larger cities than Terre Haute. Too, Terre

Haute police have solved the loafer problem, and the afflictions of Fort Wayne happily are unknown here. These things are merly suggestive of Terre Haute's advance among the cities of the state. But it is Just these little things which in the aggregate make a city a good place in which to liive. If life is so irksome in Fort Wayne, Terre Haute stands with open gates to refce) TCM ceive the people.

E LOSS OF REVENUE.

'Hf

fer

Mr. Shattuck last night dwelt on the revenue question, and tried to make it appear that the present tariff law was responsible for the passage of a war revenue measure.

To express it otherwise, Shattuck's t] thought is that the larger the proporo' tion of revenue levied on imports the less the deficiency will be when imPslT ports are seriously curtailed. One 5c would be obliged to go far for an argument more ridiculous.

Figures

5c,

easily obtainable answer the

argument completely. No one, not even the strongest republican partisan, was worried over a deficit prior to the war. The fiscal year ended with June, show-

CRISIS IN WAR.

Dispatches say that the German papers have grown pessimistic over the operations of the war, and from their tenor, they seem to be preparing the people for distressing news. It is evident that a crisis in the war is at hand.

ing a surplus in the treasury—excluding Panama expenditures, which no one supposed would be paid from ordinary receipts—of $33,000,000. Customs duties had exceeded estimates by $22,000,000.

Using the official figures to prove his contention, Chairman Underwood of the ways and means committee said on the floor of the house the other day "If we had allowed the Payne bill to stand, and no income tax had been levied and collected, if we had not removed the exemption under the corporation tax, and if we had only collected from the corporations the $35,000,000 collected under the Payne bill instead of the $77,000,000 accruing from the corporation and income tax collected under the present law, we should have had $15,000,000 more revenue to make up today for losses at the custom house In addition to the $100,000,000 we are now proposing to lelvy."

Candidate Shattuck says he believes the Payne act was better than the Underwood bill. He should admit, however, that even the former with its beloved schedule could not work a miracle nor hold America Immune from the effects of a war which candid men see are universal.

CHAMBER OF COMMERCE.

Secretary E. H. Clifford's announcement of the meeting of the state federation of chambers of commerce here this month directs attention to the ^valuable achievements of this national commercial organization. If the Chamber of Commerce of the United States had done nothing since its organization in 1912 but prepare for business men to come into co-operative touch with the government, at this moment of urgency, It would have completely justified all the efforts that have been made. The disturbed condition of business resulting from the European war found the machinery ready and the common basis of contact already in existence in Washington.

It was realized immediately by the officials of the national chamber that a remarkable condition confronted the United States, a condition that could be made to react in its favor, or that could pass by unused. Consequently, no efforts have been spared to bring together facts for the guidance of American business or to co-operate with the various departments of the government in efforts they are making to serve American business. Its services are being continued day by day both in general bulletins, in legislative bulletins and in personal correspondence.

The highly efficient organization in Washington has been rendered constantly available for all interests involved. The rapidity with which information has been secured and transmitted, both in relation to general subjects and specific inquiries, has given to every office calling on this organization for information the actual equivalent of its own office opened in Washington.

The officials of the national chamber are now in consultation as to the best methods of getting information from consuls so as to get at the subject of trade promotion through the specific information which the consuls can furnish.

The prophets were wrong after all the trans-Atlantic aeroplane which they said would never cross the sea is on its way across. Of course, it is safely packed aboard a steamer.

Felix Diaz says he is eager to help Villa. And "Villa's expression of gratitude resembles the noisy and joyous enthusiasm of a funeral in an institution for deaf mutes.

To hear a stump speaker declare the failure of the cost of living to reduce, you would think he didn't want the farmer to get anything for his trouble.

A son of old Abdul Hamid has been offered the crown of Albania. Why try to punish the son for the misdeeds of the father?

The republican orators ought to get together on their explanation of the war tax. Each one has a different theory.

Just as the hay fever season is about over Rzeszow comes untimely to claim an important place in the war news.

The stand-patters talk about Inducing the progressives to return, and then they start a "Joe" Cannon parade.

Funston continues to have a lot of trouble in getting the cover of his trunk to stay down.

AN ARTIFICIAL STORM.

Ingenious Electric Sign On One of New York's Theaters. In front of the new Strand theater, New York, is an electric sign designed to attract attention to the name of the theater by representing a light ning stroke from some artificial clouds to earth and producing a blue flash and a crash as the lightning strikes. The clouds are very ingeniously constructed so as not to. display their source of illumination and to represent .sheet lighthlng prior to the direct stroke.

The clouds consist of horizontal meti^l strips arranged like a louver so that the light from within is diffused over the visible portion of the vanes, which are painted to represent clouds. By causing the light to flicker a semblance of sheet lightning is produced, after which a zigzag stroke darts downward along the sign, terminating with a flash and a crash from the discharge of high potential energy across a gap. The high potential discharge is caused by an oscillator similar to that used in wireless telegraph work. The coil is Installed within the building, and the terminals are led out through insulated bushings to the discharge points.

White the lightning stroke is spectacular the noise accompanying the discharge at the gap is decidedly more so, and Is very effective In attracting the attention of those who pass by.— Electrical World.

OFFICIAL BADGE SELECTED.

Clifford Selects Design for Commercial Club Insignia. The badges to be worn by the delegates to the selventh annual convention of the Indiana Federated Commercial clubs have been selected by Secretary E. H. Clifford of the Chamber of Commerce. The badge will consist of a button bearing the seal of the state of Indiana and -a yellow ribbon five inches long hanging from It. At the top will be printed "Indiana Federated Commercial Clubs," and at the bottom "Terre Haute, Oct. 15 and 16." In the center the name and address of the delegate will be typewritten.

PLANTING TREES ON SANDHILLS.

That France has saved her southwest departments from the destructive shifting sands by planting pine trees and that Germany has tamed some of the poorest soil in Europe to human service by the same methods are facts that are generally known, but many persons may not know that similar work on at least as great a scale is being performed by the government in the sandhill region of Nebraska, says the Chicago "Journal."

In this district, where the real estate moves back and forth with every change In the wind, forest rangers are planting trees. They are pinning their faith to the Jack pine, as being best adapted to standing the severe conditions of tree life in that country, fnd about a thousand acres are set to these useful tfees each year.

When they began this work, nine trees out of every 10 trees planted died. Now the rangers have perfected their technique till almost all nine out of 10 trees live: and though the work is only a dozen years old, it is already transforming a considerable region.

Enthusiastic foresters figure out a fine net profit for the government at the end of 20 years. One cannot help suspecting that most of this profit will evaporate, but that is, after all, the smallest part of the matter. Tne main thing is that a region which was useless and a menace is being put to service, and that the way is being shown for state and private enterprise cf the same nature on a still larger soale.

HOROSCOPE FOR A DAY.

Sunday. October 4. 1914.

Astrology reads In the stars today mingled good and evil influences, since Uranus and-Jupiter are in beneflc aspect land the sun and Venue adverse.

It is a time in which to keep quiet passing the hours in occupations that cannot disturb settled habit si

The influences are not auspicious for visiting or for the usual social entertainments. Dinners are likely to be devoid of the pJeasant conditions necessary to auoces&, warn the seers, for when Venus Is evilly disposed misunderstandings and criticisms are common.

Courtship la mibject to unfavorable influences. When this rule prevails women are said to be careless concorning the impression that they produce.

Jupiter is in a place that is held as moot promising to bankers and brokers, who have the prognostication of extreme fluctations between anxiety and confidence. According to the seers the next year will bring great distinction and recognition to Americans who assume far-reaching obligations. There is a sign read as indicating "breaking of limitations, broadening of activities and curtail ing of risks."

Owing to Saturn's position in the sign of Canccr, the 15th of the month may be of serious moment to Holland, Africa and Scotland. Political and physical disturbances are prognosticated.

New work for the churches again is foreshadowed. There is a prophesy that the United States will lead in a world-wide movement.

In the horoscope of the emperor of Jaipan Mars has a place indicative of a crisis that may mean a great deal to this country, astrologers prophesy. Hawaii is subject to influences that are said to be of far-reaching significance.

Persons whose birthdate it is hare the augury of a year of vicissitude*. Business will demand anxious attention probably, but there is a chance for change that will be successful. Those who are employed should be cautious.

Children born on this day may have many vicissitudes in life. They are likely to have great Initiative. Boys would succeed best in independent business ventures. Girls have the foreshadowing of happiness In marriage.

Tho passing thoughts within her mind Why fads and follies surely find A welcome warm, yet bring distress,

There is more Catarrh in this section of the country than all other diseases put together, and until the last few years was supposed to be incurable. For a great many years doctors pronounced it a local disease and prescribed local remedies, and by constantly falling to cure with local treatment, pronounced it incurable. Science has proven Catarrh to be a constitutional disease, and therefore requires constitutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co.. Toledo, Ohio, is the only Constitutional cure on the market. It Is taken internally. It acts directly on the blood and mucous surfaces of the system.
