Fiom a business standpoint Ceda: Creek has in no way been contrary from the average towns of her sizr throughout this section of Xebrasko this fall. The farmers are busy in the torn fields, many of whom are almost through with the gathering, and this alone has made the days just a trifle quiet in town, but we will soon be leady to compare notes with many towns many times larger than Cedar Creek.

GREAT OFFEN SIVE BEGUN BY THE ALLIES Furious Attack on Constantinople's Defenders Follows Lord Kitchener's Visit. THE GERMANS REACH TURKEY Rotterdam, Xov. 22. A tremendous offensive has been begun by the allies at the Dardenelles, sai 1 a Constanti nople dispatch to the Koelnische Zeit'-mg today. The Da;uanel!es offensive is re garded here as Lord Kitchener's nega tive answer to suggestions in Eng land that the Gai'.ipoli campaign be aba-.doned. Following Sir Ipii Hampton's recall from command of the expedition General Monro, who succeeded him, is understood to have recommended that the troops engaged in the Darda nelles land campaign be withdrawn, considering them engaged in a hope less task.

ACCUSES AL LIES OF TRYING TO START WAR Harsh Measures Adopted in Blockade Condemned by Press Says No Excuse for It. Paris, Xov. 22. The declaration of r commerical blockade of Greece by the entente rowers has produced a marked impression in Athens, par ticularly as it was unexpected. An Athens dispatch to the Petit Journal says the newspaper organs of the Greek government accuse the allies, especially Great Britain, of seeking to diasr Greece into the war by harsh measures. These papers assert Greece has given sufficient piOoCthat she intends to maintain the policy of benevolent neutrality and has had no thought of taking hostile steps. However, she cannot permit trans ference of the theater of war into her own territory. It is suggested that the measures taken by the allies may result in withdrawal of Greek troops from the frontier or even in partial i demobilization. ' The section of the press which sup ports former Premier Venizelos ac ' cuses the government of having ; brought on by want of foresight the ; conflict with the entente powers. The j general feeling, however, is one of optimism and it is believed serious ; misunderstanding will be avoided. LOCATING THE TROUBLE.

Lincoln, Xeb., Nov. 22. The Even ing Star of this date contains the fol lowing: Now that the Hughes presidential boomers in Nebraska have been prop erly spanked and squelched, anil the .-ame fate seems likely to befall the irrespressible John Yeiser in his ef fort to draft Mayor Thompson of Chi cago, the boards pre cleared for a con sideration of real g. o. p. candidates for the job of trying to defeat Presi dent Wilson next year. Although it is being heralded far :"id wide that the republican party is once more united, plenty of evidence exists that the rank and file are not quite so ready to forget the sins and mistakes of the past as are the poli ticians, who want office. The latter may be, and doubtless are, ready to call things a draw and join hands for the sake of getting the jobs they covet; but the former still do some of their own thinking and it is doubtful whether they will be so willing as the politicians to fall in line and whoop it up for the offices. Nix on Teddy. It is undoubtedly true that so far as Taft and Roosevelt ar1 concerned lepublican voters care very little about either one of them at the pres ent time. Men who were shouting themselves hoarse for Roosevelt in l."I2 are now indifferent to him, while those who stood by Taft have lost ail interest in his sayings and doings. But there exists in the republican party today the same general division which developed during the Roosevelt and Taft administrations, when the insurgents in congress began their fight against control by Aldrich and Cannon. One element wants to go back to the "good old days;" the other insists that the g. o. p. shall nominate progressive candidates and stand for progressive policies. This division is seen in the way things are being lined up looking ahead to the contest for the repub lican presidential nomination. Stand pat republicans, in Nebraska and else where, are letting it be known that they look with much favor on Root for president. Those who call themselves progressives are demanding someone like Cummins or Borah. La Follette Popular. There is a large element in the re publican party which has looked to Senator La Follette as its leader. La Follettee is the one recognized pro gressive who never compromises his principles for the sake of policy. He is sounding, through his magazine, a tall to progressive republicans to stand by their guns, and is warning the party against the attempt now being made to bring it once more un der reactionary control. It is quite certain that the repub lican voters of Nebraska will be called upon in the primaries to express their preference as between a standpat can didate like Root, Weeks or Fairbanks, and a progressive like Cummins, Borah or Hadley. This may precipi tate a fight for national committeeman rnd national delegates, with one slate racked by the standpatters and one by the progressives. The result, of course, in that case will be a factional fight all along the line. Meanwhile a great many repub licans continue to express themselves as well satisfied with the conditions prevailing under the Wilson adminis tration, and nothing is more certain than that the president will receive a very considerable number of repub lican votes for a second term. The split with Bryan will tend to increase Wilson's popularity among repub licans, many of whom are bound to be dissatisfied with any man that their own party may nominate for the presi dency.
