Resume Offensive.

WITH THE AMERICAN ARMIES IN FRANCE, July 6.—Increasing activity in the rear of the German lines over a wide area, recently, probably foreshadows a resumption of tne German offensive at any time. There was a heavy bombardment of the American lines la?t night, the avalanche of shells including many containing gas.

There is a continuous aerial activity. An American observer, who was attacked by seven German planes, shot down one of his pursuers and escaped the rest. He reached his own lines in safety, although his machine was riddled with bullets.

"COES OVER THE TOP"

By Special Correspondent. BRAZIL*, Ind., July 6.—Cass township, the smallest township in the county, and having the largest per cent of German population, fully 90 per cent being of German parentage, is the first to "go over the top" in the War Savings Stamp drive in Clay county.

Cass township has been the first to report a 100 per cent record in every war activity to date, and the people of that patriotic little township intend to keep their record clear.

MAY HAVE PEACE ON WILSON TERMS

Wilson Tells VVar Aim*.

"President Wilson yesterday made it clear what we are fighting for. If the kaiser and his advisers will accept the conditions voiced by the president they can have peace with America, peace with France, peace with Great Britain tomorrow. ''But he haa given tm Indication of an intention to do so. Because he will not do this, is the very reason we are all fighting. "What are we here fort JNot because |we covet a single yard of German soil tnot because we desire to dispossess •Germany of ner inheritance. Not because we desire to deprive the German people of their legitimate rights. We are fighting for the great principles laid down by President Wilson."

PRESIDENT TO VETO BILL FOR $2.40 WHEAT

WASHINGTON, July Efforts to raise the price to be paid farmers for this year's wheat crop were dead tonight, as a result of positive announcement from the White House that the President will veto $2.40 wheat, passed by the house and senate today. He considers, it unnecessary at this time.

The increased price would not help production, because this year's crop has been long since planted and some of it already reaped.

The President is Understood to agree with Chairman Lever of the house agricultural committee that a price boost at this time would constitute a gift to the farmer at the epepense of wheat consumers.

The closenes* of today's vote i« the house showed the futility of attempting to pa.ss4.he measure over the President's, veto.
