Adding the 20,000 slight casu

And It Is for that time, It Is believed

has had Us taste of war, but has not
yet borne Its heavy burdens, Is bclnr
saved, by the French military genius,
who follows Napoleon's'rule to produce
the utmost possible result with the
greatest economy of forces. It Is for
that big offensive that tho Americans

Yesterday wo continued the advance
north of those points. Meanwhile the
French troops on our right had pushed
forward across tho river on a front of
fifteen kilometers to the east of Thurs

our men have now reached, one may see

The Germans have got most of fhelr

strong, and Intact, would bo costly
to take frontally. But Mangln's ad

tho Solssons plateau on the, crest on
the east half of which lies the Chemln-des-Dumes
position. Should Mangln's
army get around so that It could com
mand the terrain in the rear of this
position, it would be untenable for
tho boche. Will the boche. ..therefore,
get further back than the line from
which the Crown Prince started his
"victory drive" last spring, or will he
tryi to halt for a while on the famed

since he squatted on the plateau north
of the Vesle on August 1 after the
French and Americans had driven him
there from his position along the
Marne. Then, too, the pressure
exerted by Mangln's army from the
westward was due In part to the work
of the American forces fighting with

overcame such bitter 3erman resist

AMERICAN PURSUIT
A BRILLIANT VICTORY
By the Associated Press
With the American Troops In France,
Friday. Sept. 6.
Tho artillery lire on the American
sector In tho Woevre region was heavier
toay than It had been for two weeks.
In the Voigea. however, the firing ac
tivity Increased. The pilot and observer
of a German airplane that -was shot
down by tho French and fell within the
American lines' were captured taday by
American troops. American patrals had
a sharp encounter with an enemy am
bushing party last night. Another enemy
patrol approached the American wire,
but beat a hasty retreat when It was
filed upon.
Menaced Dy a salient, increasing In-
aanger, tne uermans today began a
withdrawal from the Vesje valley to
tho right of the Americans. On the
west flank the Americans held firmly,
while the French exerted sharp pressure
on the rear. The struggle Is being
made to the Americans' right and has

are subject to a heavy enfilade, esne.
dally by the artillery. Despite des
perate resistance, they swung their line
torwara 10 us junction wun tne t rench,
where the most determined resistance
was encountered The Americans were
forced to face a deadly barrage, while
barriers of gas were raised In teyery
ravine down which they might advance.
An equally destructive artillery response
was made by tho Americans, however,'
ana tne men aireaay iriea in previous
engagements advanced steadly, driving
out the machine-gun nests one after an
other. The Germans held tttelr positions
along a machlne-guu line stubbornly,
many of them dying at their posts, but
the total mortality was not great, since
only machine gunners were left In the
rear line. It Is probable, however, that
the German losses were large as a re
sult of the counter artillery fire. Some
thirty prisoners were brought in today
from that part of the sector on the
Americans' right.

REPUBLICANS LIKELY TO WIN
MONDAYS MAINE ELECTION
Indications Arc That G.' O. P. Senatorial, Congressional and
Gubernatorial Candidates Will Be Returned
in Pine TYce State
Portland, Me.. Sept. 7.
Maine's full quota of four Congress
men and oneof her two United States
Hoiators will be chosen Monday nt the
biennial State election, besides a Gov
ernor and lesser officers. Senator Fred
erick Hale's seat is not In contest at
this time.
Known as the barometric State be
cuise Its election precedes all others, In
terest Is iiatloif-wlds In Monday's ballot
ing and then tho political dopesters
watch to see If, Indeed, "Ab goes Maine,
so goes the nation " Participation of
the United States in the world war has
dls.'o-tcd politics Just as It has other
Institutions and conditions nnd even the
incut certaln-mlndcd prognostlcators of
prtvlcus election ears are quallfs Ing
their forecasts with "Ifs" and "huts'
even with voting day so near at hand.
Looking at tho situation from all
angle", however. It seems reasonably
certain th.it thft United States Senator
and three cf tho four Congressmen will
be Republican with tho odds fairly
strong Ih favor of a fourth Republican
Congressman, a Republican Governor
and l(ke party majority In both branches
of the State Legislature,
v All four Congressional, the Senatorial,
tho Gubernatorial and tho majority of
the State legislative seats In contest
aro now occupied by Republicans and
re-elections are sought by the Governor,
Senator and the quartet of Congress
men. Senator Bert M. Fernald has
nimer R. Newbert as Democratic oppo
nent. Intho first Congressional district
Louis B. Goodall Is opposed by Lucius
B. Swetti In the second district Wallace
JT. White, grandson of the late Senator
William P. Frye. Is oppoed by former
Congressman Daniel J. McGllllcuddy; in
the third district Edward Chase opposes
John A. Peters; nnd In tho fourth dis
trict Ira G. Hersey Is opposed by Leon
G.C.Brown. Governor Carl I" Mllllken
Is opposed by Bcrtrand G. Mclntire
Only two parties nre represented this
jehr. the Socialists and Prohibitionists
naming no candidates.
Little Apparent Interest
There Is little apparent Interest In
politics hero In Maine, thousands of men
of voting ago arc with the colors nnd
that united with adoption of a new
variation of the Australian ballot has
brought about a perplexing condition for
party leaders and political forecasters
to copo with.
Stickers aro barred under the new
foim of ballot, and voters may cheek
each cimdldato for whom he wishes to
vote. This iwans a falling oft in straight
ballots affecting Stato ofuclals tnore than
congressional candidates Governor Mil
liken has mado many firm friends among
tho Democrat", but also has made ene
mies In his own part. enemies wh
will neglect to vote for him, even If thej
do not double the effect of their cui
by clucking the name of his rival. Re
publican rolnsnun fo this reason, ar
making every effort to get out a b'g
Republican vote, so that tho normal
Maine iRcpubllean marginal strength
may" overcome the cut and not endanger
congressional candidacies

The Republicans have displayed very
little cutward actlv ty, and the Demo
crats but a shade more. The Republican
urgument Is that tho record of the cor
grcsslonal representatives In standing by
the Administration In every war move
and the like attitude of the Governor
and Legislature etand of themselves as
sufllclent recommendation for re-election
of the party's candidates. Many Demo
crats hopeful or electing, at best, only
their gubernatorial and Second District
congressional candidates, are outspoken
In argument that this Republican Mogan
Is a trap sprung by National Chairman
Will II. Hayes to Influenco patriotic sen
tlment among Democrats On 'the other
I'and, mere are many leading Democrat
I whn have refused to get.ln'o the fight
this jmr because they u'reue that two
jears hence Republicans will be asked
to retain President Wilson, and they
will wlshto be consistent In their argu
ment therefor as far as any action they
might take at this time would obtain.
