Attack Renewed.
"Along the Isonzo front yesterday,
under a continuous rain, our troops
renewed their attacks with unabated
vigor. In the Plava section we
stormed the Zagora region, which was
strongly fortified by the enemy, tak
ing 317 prisoners, including seven of
ficers, with one machine gun, many
rifles and ammunition. On the Pod
gora heights we broke and passed
through a fourth exceptionally strong
line of trenches. We took 114 pris
oners, three of whom were officers.
A eounter attack made on our flank
by troops coming up from the Gori
zia bridgehead was hurled back with
heavy losses.
"On the Carso plateau, after re
pelling with heavy losses several vio
lent counter attacks during the night,
our troops succeeded by day in pro
gressing along the northern slopes of
Monte San Michele and toward San
Martino del Carso. We took 175 pris
oners. Everywhere our troops showed
admirable endurance, bravery and self
sacrifice."
Proclamation by the Governor.
It has come to my knowledge that
certain soeities who have for their
object, among other things, the spec
ial study of the bible, and have in
dicated a particular day for the pur
pose of studying those portions that
would tend to promote harmony
among people and nations.
I have been requested to give em
phasis to the movement as chief ex
ecutive of the state, the day to be
known as "Nebraska get-together
Sunday School Day." Believing that
nothing other than good could come
of a conscientious study of the bible
t n the general topic of peace, and to
subserve the best interests of all, I
cheerfully endorse the proposition in
setting apart Sunday, November 7,
11)13. as the day when a state-wide
Sunday school be held for the pur
pose indicated, and cemmend it to the
attention of all churches, and people
generally.
Given under my hand and seal of
state this 4th day of September, 1915.

NO BREAK SEEMS
POSSIBLE IN THE
WESTERN ARMY
Armies Deadlocked So Tight That
None Can Gain Decisively,
Again Shown.
HALF MILLION BRITONS READY
New York, Nov. 3. The most
significant revelations made by Pre
mier Asquith in his explanation of the
progress of the war and due to the
fact that Sir John French had near
ly a million British troops under his
command during the recent offensive
in Artois and the frank admission that
the financial burdens of the war are
becoming serious.
If, with nearly a million British
troops ready for action, the German
lines could not be pierced under condi
lions that existed six weeks ago, it is
difficult to believe much hope can ex
ist that the deadlock in the west ever
will be broken by military pressure.
Sir John French's report on the Artois
offense made public this week shows
that a large gain might possibly have
result if the arrival of British re
serves had not been delayed in the
crucial moments during the struggle
for Hill No. 70.
But the dominant circumstances of
the Arois engagement is not the fail
ure of the reserves to arrive in time;
it is rather the meagerness of the
gains compared with the immense
force under Sir John French's control.
There can be no possible question of
the bravery and tenacity of the Brit
ish troops. But the more their soldier
ly qualities are emphasized, the less
hope must remain that it is humanly
possible to overcome the western dead
lock by force of arms.
Efforts to destroy the deadlock can
not continue indefinitely because of
the approach of finanical exhaustion.
Mr. Asquith has made this clear. He
has told the house of commons that
even British financial strength is not
capable of bearing the burdens of war
unless there is much greater public
and private economy. By urging econ
omy, Mr. Asquith means that the peo
ple of Great Britain must save more
money in order that they can be
taxed the heavier and can subscribe
to future war loans as well.
Mr. Asquith'3 criticism applies to all
the belligerents alike. If the prim
minister of the world's richest empire
is compelled to take a gloomy view of
the financial situation of his own
country, the plight of the other war
ring nations is without doubt equally
as serious, under tnis condition, it
s becoming more and more probable
that peace will be enforced by gradual
exhaustion of the belligerents' supply
of silver bullets.
Ships Some Fine Stock.
From "Wednesday's Dally.
Yesterday afternoon Judge W. II.
Newell shipped to his ranch at Mar-
quett, Neb., three fine thoroughbred
pedigreed Hereford bulls, which were
purchased from George A. Kaffenberg-
er of this city, who is one of the
breeders of this fine line of stock. The
animals were the finest of their class
that could be found and should make
a valuable addition to the herd at the
ranch.

SUFFRAGISTS
BADLY BEATEN
IN NEW YORK
New York Also Defeated the New
State Constitution by a
Big Majority.
DEMOCRATIC GOVERNORS IN
MARYLAND AND KENTUCKY
New York, Nov. 3. Woman suf
frage was beaten by a majority of
210,000 and the revised state constitu
tion rejected by approximately 300,
000 in the statewide election yester
day, returns today show.
The legislature w ill be virtually the
same complexion as it was this year.
Politically the senate, to which only
one member was elected yesterday, re-J
mains unchanged. The assembly which
contained ninety-nine republicans this
year, will have ninety-eight next year.
One progressive, a socialist and fifty
democrats will complete the body. Ic
has been three years since there was
a socialist in the assembly.
A majority of the mayors elected in
the state were republican. Albany,
Amsterdam, Kingston, Poughkeepsie
and Rochester named republicans.
Troy, Utica and Mount Vernon elected
democrats. Theron Akin, a former
congressman, ran as an independent in
Amsterdam and was defeated by
James R. Cline. George R. Lunn, for
mer socialist mayor of Schenectady,
was returned to that office.
Democrats Gain.
Democrats generally were success
ful in Greater New York. Alfred E.
Smith and Edward Swann, democrats,
were elected sheriff and district at
torney respectively, in New York
county by majorities estimated at
from 40,000 to 50,000. In the other
four counties James Crojsey, district
attorney of Kings, was the only re
publican elected to a high county of
fice. The board of aldermen in the:
city is overwhelmingly democratic.
In republican circles the defeat of
the constitution was taken philosophi
cally. All of the leaders were well
pleased with the showing of the party
made in the assembly race.
William S. Bennett, republican, was
elected congressman from the Twenty-
third congressional district.
Democratic Governor in Maryland.
Baltimore, Nov. 3. State Comp
troller Emerson C. Harrington, the
democratic candidate for governor,
was elected yesterday to succeed Gov
ernor P. L. Goldsborough, republican.
At 8 o'clock this morning his plurality
over O. E. Weller, republican, was
estimated at 3,500. Albert C. Ritchie,
democratic candidate for attorney gen
eral, ran ahead of Harrington con
siderably, and Hugh A. McMullen, can
didate for comptroller, ran about even
ly with the gubernatorial candidate.
Harrington was elected by the vote
given United States Senator John
Walter Smith one year ago.
The democrats will retain control of
the senate, through holdover members.
and probably will have a reduced ma
jority in the house of delegates.
CHEAPER THAN HOME-MADE.
You cannot make a good cough
medicine at home for as little as you
pay for T oley's Honey and Tar, nor
can you be sure of getting the fresh,
full strength, clean and pure ma
terials. Did you ever hear of a home
made cough medicine doing the work
that Foley's is doing every day ail
over the country? Sold everywhere.
Mr. and Mrs. L. A. Meisinger and
son, Clyde, drove in from their farm
home yesterday morning to attend to
some business matters and to meet P.
M. Meisinger and family, who were
coming in from Benson, Neb., for a
few days' visit at the L. A. Meisinger
home. While here Mr. Meisinger took
time to call at this office and have his
subscription to the Daily Journal ex
tended for another year.
CURED BOY OF CROUP.
Nothing frightens a mother more
than the loud, hoarse cough of croup.
Labored breathing, strangling, chok
ing and gasping for breath demand
instant action. Mrs. T. Neureuer, Eau
Claire, Wis., says: "Foley's Honey
and Tar cured my boy of croup after
other remedies failed." Recommended
for coughs and colds. Sold every
where. Louis McDaniel of Council Bluffs,
who was here visiting with his moth
er and sisters, Mrs. J. E. and W'iliiam
Tuey and families, for a few hours, re
turned yesterday to his home. He
has just returned from a summer's
vacation on a ranch near White
Sulphur Springs, Montana.
DEMOCRATS ARE
FEELING GOOD
OVER RETURNS
Makes Great Gains in AH the States
and Feel Very Greatly
Encouraged.
Washington, Nov. 3. A sfeutemen
issued tonight from the headquarters
of the democratic national committee
commenting on the results of yester
day's election, said:
"The results of yesterday show tha
while the republicans and bull moose
have gotten together in some states,
the democracy has made large gains
from the progressive ranks. This is
notably true in Massachusetts, from
which state the first official returns
are available. The democratic guber
natorial candidate, Governor Walsh,
made a wonderful race. He polled
the largest vote ever given a democra
in the state, while Mr. McCall, the
republican candidate, ran way behind
the normal republican vote given
party nominees in recent years. The
boast of the republicans in Massa
chusetts that they would carry the
state by from 25,000 to 40,00 majority
remains unfilled. The total vote
given Walsh yesterday was 229,312,
while McCall received 235,916 votes.
The vote for Governor Walsh was
nearly 20,000 greater than he received
two years ago and 37,000 more than
he received in 1912. President Wilson
received only 173.400 votes as agains;
29S.175 for Taft and Roosevelt. Tafc
received 2C5.9G6 votes in 1908, which
is 30,000 more than the vote given
McCall yesterday.
"In this connection, the important
fact should not be overlooked that
Massachusetts is one of the old line
republican states. It has elected re
publican legislatures and republican
United States senators for genera
tions. The democratic party, which
has always been the minority party,
s stronger in the state today than it
lias ever been before.
"There were three state election re
sults yesterday where governors were
chosen. The democrats elected their
state tickets in two of these states.
While they lost the governorship in
Masachusetts, a heretofore strong re
publican state, they elected a demo
crat to replace the present republican
in Maryland. In Kentucky the demo
crats elected their candidate for gov
ernor, A. O. Stanley, whose election
was opposed by a number of repub
lican spellbinders of national reputa
tion, including former Vice President
Fairbanks. The victories in two of
these closely-contested states and the
very remarkable race made by the
party leader in the other is highly
gratifying to the national democracy,
for all of these states have been in
the republican fold during the past
lew years.
"The results yesterday are full of
encouragement to democrats, demon -starting
conclusively that it is the
constructive and gaining party, while
the republicans have failed signally
in their effort to force back into the
rank progressive and independent re
publicans." Mural Parmeie came in last evening
from Omaha, where he has been look
ing after some matters in regard to
his roller skating rink, which he is
