WATER AT FACTORY CAUSES EPIDEMIC

ELGIN, 111., Sept 16. The water supply of 'the Elgin Watch . factory, which employs several thousand persons has been found to be the source of a typhoid epidemic which has puzzled city officials all summer. Eleven deaths and 175 cases have been reported to the health board in the last two months, and It is feared the epidemic will become general.

Health authorities today took steps to check the spread of the disease.

RAILROADERS MAY COMBAT H. G. L. WITH CO-OPERATIVE BUYING PLAN

Efforts to fight the high cost of living this fall and winter will be made by roalroad employes by cooperative buying in Cincinnati, Chicago and other big markets in wholesale quantities, according to plans on foot In railroad yards and shops. The plan may be taken into the brotherhoods to perfect, railroad employes said today. , The employes indicated that such steps are being considered partially in retaliation for what they believe was unjust Increase of prices by Richmond grocers and produce dealers, particularly the later they said, in the week preceeding the date set for a strike of brotherhood members, and to forstall similar action they predict will be taken during the winter. Bring in Mixed Cargoes. Mixed freight carloads of potatoes, fruits, canned goods and other staples and food necessities such as rice, four and sugar will be shipped here and distributed among the employes at prices from 25 to 50 per cent lower than grocers will charge, employes said. The greatest saving will be accomplishes on sugar, four and potatoes, they said. "Men with runs terminating in big market centers have kept in close touch with prices, supply and demand," said one. "We have learned, contrary to what Richmond dealers told us, that there is a big crop of potatoes in Michigan for winter use and plenty In Ind-

MEET AT MORNING SUN.

OXFORD, O., Sept. 16. The annual meeting of the First Ohio Presbyterian

U. P. church, closed at Morning Sun last night with the election of these officers: Moderator, Rev. O. W. Bovard, Hamilton; vice-moderator, Rev. S. G. McChesney, Loveland; clerk, Rev. Ralph A. Jamieson, Morning Sun.

iana for fall use. We have found out there is no necessity for fearing an increase in the price of sugar because the refineries have not altered prices and probably will not. "By getting at the food supply bases, and by keeping in close touch with produce markets, we expect to cut out high prices and to get the additional

advantage of buying at wholesale prices. Railroad men have been doing

this on a small scale for several years."

VISITS OF

Continued from page One Democratic leaders say this meeting will rival in attendance the meeting to be addressed by Mr. Hughes Thursday night. Make Public Officials. A list of vice presidents for both the Hughes and the Marshall meetings are now being made out by local party leaders. Henry Farwlg, in charge of arrangements for the Marshall meeting, says his list of vice presidents will be made public Monday and will include prominent Democrats In every county in the district. L. S. Bowman, Republican county chairman, said today that his list of vice presidents for the Hughes meeting would also be made public Monday. G. O. P. workers believe that more than five thousand people from all over the Sixth district and from Ohio points will come to Richmond to attend the Hughes meeting and predict that even standing room in the coliseum will be at a premium. If possible arrangements will be made to have Mr. Hughes address an overflow meeting.

PALMER RELATES

Work Brings Result The slow plodding work of recent weeks which included the taking of Ginchy and Guillemont had for its object the control of all the high ground from the region of Thiepval to the junction with the French on the right. The Germans fought hard for every foot of it. Delville, or Devil wood and

the High wood under rib of earth windwall crowned beyond Poizieres have been steeped with blood of men and mixed with flesh of men fallen there under the longest and heaviest orgy of shell fire In the history of the war, as experts agree. German wrestled with Briton not for a piece of farm land, but for the military and human mastery. Today the British advance was largely down hill. They rut behind them the high ground where the slopes give them shelter for their guns and whose crest gives them observation for their artillery Are. No Offensive Expected Evidently the Germans did not expect the attack, considering that the

British offensive was overwhelming. Never before was there such a battle on any front than, was on at this point. The British made their advances on July 1, and they have continued their offensive with phlegm

atic and dogged persistence. The Germans have kept bringing up guns until they have a thousand in this

snort sector, ana yesterday correspondent, moving over the region of

devastated villages and shell torn earth, saw how enormously they had increased their artillery. Sun tanned

and weatherbeaten are the gunners after their ten weeks' work. There

seemed lines and parks and clusters

of houses. Rows of batteries were firing with something like regularity and

mechanical workmanship of the need' les of a loom weaving cloth. Batteries Side by Side.

Alongside each other were British and French batteries. The gunners

of neither ally could speak the langu

age of the other, yet both were going on with their parts, according to

chartered instructions.

At midnight, last night, the correspondent saw the gunners' figures

illuminated by the flashes. Except for

the guns which know no rest, the army for the most part seemed silent

and asleep.

"We keep on learning: we of the

new army," said one of the young of

ficers, "and with every show, we do a

little better. Battle is a great teacher."

The guns never stopped their earwrecking noises from daylight to darkness and from darkness to dawn; only when dawn came, where here and there some key of that strident piano had been striking a chord, all the keys began to bang at once. Stage Hellish Sideshow. But before the general attack began there had been a hellish little preliminary sideshow near Thiepval. The Germans had constructed deep dugouts and galleries. Before daylight the British got in the under cover of the fire and bombed

their way. They bombed their way

through galleries, which soon became

catacombs, and made themselves mas

ters of the position after hours of ugly

work. Then also before sun up and

The bodies were ;hen shipped to relatives of the men who lost their lives. Some of the injured were taken off the ship, while others remained aboard. The Solace was one day out of Santo Domingo when the Memphis grounded and was recalled by wireless. .

only an hour before the time set for the British attack, the Germans, who apparently had no idea that the British were coming on in another big push,

made a small attack in the neighbor-

nooa oi Mouquet rarm. Tney took a

section of trenches and they were holding it at the moment when that wave

of British, six miles long, overwhelm

ed them, and British reserves in this

part of the attack swept over both Ger

mans and their own men struggling

with Germans and reached the objective which had been set for their

day's work. Motors Cross Trenches.

With the infantry went these new

motor cars across trenches and shell

craters. So ludicrous are they In appearance that British soldiers laughed at them in the midst of the charge and cheered them as they poured their streams of machine gun bullets. Like some prehistoric monsters they must have seemed to the Germans who were forced to seek safety in flight or hunt their dugouts or try to surrender. So far as reports indicate tonight the British everywhere gained possession of new German trenches, except in the trench opposite Ginchy. Here the Germans clung with desperate courage and with dog-to-bone tenacity to retain that bit of high ground. There he still keeps up the struggle, at last accounts. Again in the high wood, he had. kept a redoubt nest of machine guns,1' which the armored motor cars engaged, machine guns, which the armored moto cars engaged, machine gun against machine gun, while the British infantry passed around it around a rock in a flood. Among the prisoners are six colonels. One of these had the honor of being captured by the newest weapon which has added picturesqueness to present day warfare.

Here Is What Mr. O. H. Scantland Has to Say About Public Sale Ad

vertising

It is the expression of a man who knowswho has tried newspaper advertising and found it to pay him in bigger results. The Advertising Department of the Palladium is

willing to offer its experience to farmers in preparing their advertising copy and will glad

ly furnish what cuts are necessary. .

BREEDERS EXCHANGE STOCK FARM O. H. Scantland. Williamsburg, Ind., Feb. 2, 1916. The Palladium Printing Co., Richmond, Ind. Gentlemen: . In replying to your request of recent date, I have this to say about newspaper advertising: During the past month I have had two public sales, one was on my herd of Percherons sold at the Taube Barn, the other on my stock, grain, farm implements, etc.,. at my farm. Both were a grand success and drew larger crowds than it has ever been my experience to see. Naturally, the success of any sale is the number of people you can attract to your sale to buy. My method of advertising in the past has always been to use hand bills and posters, and using just a small space in the newspapers ; but on both my recent sales when I really had more at stake and a larger stock to sell, I put all of my appropriation for advertising in the newspapers. The results obtained were far greater than the old way and I want to take this means of expressing my appreciation for the way my advertising was handled. I also want to thank those farmers who contributed to the success of my sale and extend to all my friends and patrons a welcome to visit me at my new home at Lewisville, Arkansas. Sincerely yours, O. H. SCANTLAND.
