London. Tho official press bureau
Issued long reports from Field Mar
elm! General Sir John Kronen dotitl'lng
tho" operations of tho British expedi
tionary force In France and their prog
ress from August 22 to Octobor 18.
This covors tho retirement of tho
British from Mons southwnrd to tho
Seine and tho advance back to tho
lUvcr Alsno and tho first stage of tho
desperate encounters along the lino of
that river. It was September 5 when
tho allies took tho offonso.
Tho report contained this stnrtllng
Information:
"It Is a fact that botwen September
12 and October 8 tho total of killed,
wounded and missing among tho Ilrlt
Ish expeditionary forco has reached
EC1 officers and 12,1)80 men, proving
tho soverlty of tho strugglo In whlc,h
our troops have been engaged."
Following Is tho statement Issued
by tho press bureau:
Sir John French's llr9t report, dated
September 17 says:
"In splto of very determined resis
tance on the part of tho enemy, who
Is holding In strength and with great
tenacity a position peculiarly favor
ablo to defense, tho battlo which com
menced on the evening of Scptembor
12 has so far forced tho enemy back
from his first position, secured pas
eago of tho river, and Indicted great
loss upon htm, Including tho capture
of over 2,000 prisoners and several
guns."
Tho dispatch gives dotalls of tho
retreat on August 28 and 29. Gen
erals Gough and Chctwodc, with tho
Third and Fifth Cavalry brigades,
coverod tho retreat, repulsing tho Ger
mans with great loss.
German Pursuit Vigorous.
"Tho pursuit by tho enemy," contin
ues tho report, "was very vigorous.
Somo flvo or six German corps wero
on the Sommo facing tho fifth army;
on the OIso at least two corps wero
advancing toward my front and wero
crossing tho Sommo cast and west of
Ham; thrco or four more German
corps woro opposing tho Sixth French
army on my left.
"On September 5 General Joffro de
cided to take tho offensive, as ho
considered conditions very favorable
to success."
Field Marshal French believes that
about noon on tho Cth tho enemy re
alized that a powerful threat was
being mado against the flank of his
columns moving south and east and
began tho great retreat which opened
tho battle.
This battlo, bo far as the Sixth
French army, tho "British nrmy and
tho Fifth and Ninth French armies
were concerned, wns concluded on the
evening of September 10, when the
Qormons had been driven to tho Sols-eons-nelms
line, with the loss of
thousands of prisoners, many guns
and enormous masses of transport.
On the 8th both tho First and Sec
ond army corps made largo captures
and took some guns. On tho 0th
after forcing the passage of tho Marne,
they Inflicted a heavy loss in killed
and woundod on tho Germnns, whllo
the Second division took some hun
dreds of prisoners and a battery of
eight mnchlno guns.
Field Marshal French's second re
port, dated October '8, concerns tho
operations of the British forces since
the evening of September 10. It reads:
"Early in tho morning of the 11th
three corps crossed the Ourcq, fur
ther pursuit of the enemy being prac
tically unopposed, the cavalry reach
ing the line of the Aisne, two brig
ades south of Solssons and three brig
ades at Couvrellls and Carseull, on
tho afternoon of September 12.
Battle of Alene Opens.
"The Fifth division approached Mis
ay, but were unablo to make headway.
Tho west army corps reached the
neighborhood of Vauxcero without
much opposition. In this manner the
battle of the Alsne commenced.
"The position of the enemy was
very strong either for delaying action
or for defensive battlo.
"On tho morning of tho 13th I or
dered tho BrltUh forces to advance
and make tho passage of tho Alsne.
The first corps and cavalry advanced
on" the river. The first division was
directed on Chanouvllle, via tho canal
bridge at Bourg.
"By nightfall tho first division oo
cuplpd the area around Moullns, Passa
and Geny. The Second division biv
ouacked on the southern bank of the
river, leaving only the Fifth brigade,
on the north bank to estamisn a
bridge head.
Checked by Artillery.
"In the approach to Missy, where
tho Fifth division eventually crossed,
th.ore la some open ground, which
was swept by artillery flro from tho
opposite bank. The Thirteenth bri
gade, thereforo, was unable to ad
vance, but the Fourteenth, directed to
a less exposed point, was ratted over,
and at night established Itself on the
left of Salnte Marguerite, where later,
with the Fifteenth brlgado supported
by the Fourth division on their left, it
succeeded In repelling heavy counter
attacks on the Third corps.
"On tho morning of tho 13th the
Third corps found tho enemy estab
lished in strength on Vregny plateau.
Tho Twelfth Infantry crossed at Ve
nlzel, but tho bridge was so damaged
'that tho nrtlllery could only bo man
Ihnndled across It. Meanwhile tho con
struction of a bridge began closo to
' 'the road bridge at Venlzel.
"At 2 p. m. an infantry attack In tho
JUroctlon of ChlvreB and Vregny had

becamo so severo that no further prog
ross could be made. Tho positions
roa'ched woro held until dark.
"Tho Third corps mado an attempt
to throw a heavy pontoon across tho
river lato in tho nftcrnoon, but gavo
up becauso of tho heavy howitzer
flro of tho enemy.-
"In tho evening tho enemy retired
at all points and intrenched himself
on high ground nbout two miles north
of tho river, along which runs tho
Chcmin dos Dames.
Build Pontoons Under Fire.
"During tho night of tho 13th nnd
on tho 11 tli, nnd following days Hold
companies incessantly worked night
nnd day, throwing eight pontoons and
one foot brldgo ncross the river under
a generally heavy artillery lire, which
wns Incessantly kept up on most of
tho crossings after their completion.
"Tho action of the First corps on
this day under tho direction and com
mand of Sir Douglas Halg was of so
skillful, bold and declslvo a charac
ter that ho gained positions which
alone would have enabled mo to main
tain my position for more than thrco
weeks of very severe lighting on tho
north bank of tho river.
About 1 p. in. tho enemy obtained
a footing between tlia First nnd Sec
ond corps and threatened to cut tho
communications of tho latter. Gen
eral Halg was hard pressed and had
no rescrvo In hand. I placed a cav
alry division at his disposal, purt of
which ho' skillfully used to prolong
and securo tho left Hank of the
Guards Vlgade. Somo heavy fight
lng ensued, which resulted In the en
cmy being driven back with heavj
loss.
General Advance Ordered.
"About four o'clock a weakening ol
tho counter-attacks by the enemy nnd
other Indications tended to show that
his resistance was decreasing, nnd a
general advanco was ordered by the
army corps commander.
"Although meeting with consider
able opposition and coming under
very heavy artillery and rlflo lire,
tho position of the corps at tho end
of tho day'H operations extended from
tho Chcmin des Dames on tho right
through Chivy to Lo Cour Do Scuplr,
with tho First cavalry brlgado ex
tending to tho Chavonnc-Solssons
road. On tho right tho corps wns in
closo touch with tho French Moroc
can troops of tho Eighteenth corps,
which were entrenched In echelon to
Its right rear. During tho night thoy
entrenched this position.
"Throughout the battlo of tho Alsne
this advanced and commanding posi
tion was maintained, and I '-cannot
speak too highly of tho valuablo serv
ices rendered by Sir Douglas Halg
and the army corps undo'r his com
mand. ' "On tho morning of tho 15th I bo-
camo convinced that tho enemy was
making a determined stand. Reports
reached us from tho French armies
on my right and left clearly Indicating
that tho enemy was occupying a
Btrongly intrenched lino along the
wholo Valloy of tho Alsne.
"General Hamilton, with the Third
'division, attackod vigorously and re
gained the ground lost on the 14th.
"I was compelled to change my
plans when I learned that further ad
vance of tho First corps would have
dangerously exposed my right flank;
and further also learned from tin
French commander-in-chief that ha
was strongly re-enforclng the Sixth
French army corps on my left, with
the intention of bringing up tho allied
left to attack tho enemy's flank and
thus compel his retirement.
"On the 17th, '18th and 19th th
whole of our lino was hoavlly bom
barded. Tho First corps was con.
stantly engaged. The enemy was ul
timately driven back with heavy loss.
"On tho 18th information reached
mo that General Joffro had deter-,
mined to attack and envelop tho Ger
man right flank. ,
Night Attack Repulsed.,
"On tho evening of tho 19th the
enemy became active. After dark he
continued his attack on the Second
division, only to bo driven back. Our
losses in theso two days wero consid
erable, but tho enemy's,; as obtained,
vastly exceeded them.
"On tho night of tho 21st another
violent attack waB repulsed by the
Third division, tho cnomy losing heav
ily. On tho 23d four-Inch howitzer
batteries from homo arrived. They
were brought Into action on tho 24th
with very good results.
"On the 23d tho action of General
do Dastelnau's army on tho allied left
developed considerably and withdrew
considerable forces of tho enemy from
the ccntor and tho east. Until the
2Gth it appeared as though the en-
' cmy's position In our front was weak
ening.
"On that day, however, a masked
rcnowal of activity commenced.
"Renewed counter-attacks wero de
livered and beaten off during tho day,
and in the afternoon a well-timed at
tack by tho First division stopped the
onemy'B entrenching.
"During the night of tho 27th and
2Sth tho onemy again mado deter
mined attempts to capturo tho
trenches of tho First division, but
without Buccesa.

And Approve the Splendid Adminis

By Electing the Entire

"Mens' hearts wait upon us;

up to the great trust? Who dares
fall to try? I summon all honest
men, all patriotic, all forward
looking men to my side. God
helping me, I will not fall them,
If they will but counsel and sus
tain me." President Woodrow
Wilson.
To the Voters of Nebraslia:
With a sense of peace and good
wilt toward men, wo view tho closo of
our stato and congressional campaign,
knowing that thu Inherent honesty and
patriotism of tho people of Nebraska
will impel them to vote right. Dur

frained from Indulging In mud-sling-lng
and thoso vitriolic and pyrotechnic
displays which at times In tho past
have marked and marred tho cam
paigns of all parties.

Bon? Manifestly by helping to elect
tho candidates of tho democratic
party, of which President Wilson Is
the head, always provided that these
candidates are themselves worthy of
election. If porcha'uee an unfit man
by accident has received u democratic
nomination, and Is not ono of tho
"honest, patriotic, forward-looking
men" which President Wilson sum
mons to his side, then such a man do
Borves defeat. It Is an act of patriot
ism to defoat him.
It Is with a feeling of gratltudo that
wo present, as managers of tho demo
cratic campaign, bucIi men na Con
gressmen Mngulre, Lobeck and Ste
phens for re-election; such men as
Rhodes, Shallenborgcr and Taylor to
represent the Fourth, Fifth and Sixth
congressional districts; nnd such men
as Governor Morehead and his follow
state candidates to (111 tho stato of
fices. Not a man of theso has over
been tried and found wanting; all of
thorn havo filled with credit to thorn
selves public positions, nnd all of
them aro hold In high esteem In their
respective neighborhoods which,
after nil, Is tho supremo test.
Wo havo no word of condemnation
for tho candidates of other parties op
posing tho democratic party; but thoy
are seeking political preferment at a
time when, through no personal faults
of their own, they aro destined to de
feat. The United States Is faco to
face with a grave situation. It can bo
mot successfully under tho national
leadership of President Wilson, and
the stato leadership of Governor
Morehead, by electing six democratic
congressmen and tho entiro demo
cratic stato ticket. And we rest our
case, and leave It In tho hands of a
Jury composed of tho patriotic electors
of Nebraska, supremely confident
that a right verdict will bo rendorcd
on November 3rd.

AN EXPURGATED PLATFORM.
An amusing Instance of Mr. How
ell's versatility as a bolter Is pointed
out by Hort Sprngue, secretary of tho
democratic stato committee. "It will
bo remembered that In 1912 Mr, How
ell bolted the republican tlckot, gave
nld nnd comfort to tho progressives,
and did his prettiest to prevent tho
Tuft men from having their electors
on tho official ballot. Then In 1914 he
bolts tho progressives and comes on
the sccno as leader of tho Btnnd-pat
wing. That In Itself Is rather good
work for a lightning chango artist,
but as I was browsing around In somo
republican campaign literature which
drifted Into our headquarters, I
mado tho discovery tint Mr. How
ell has douo even better than
wo thought ho has bolted part
of tho 1911 republican platform,
adopted In Lincoln, July 28.
"The republican stato committee,"
continued Mr. Sprague, "has In circu
lation a little four-page folder, giving
the republican ticket on the llrst page,
nnd on tho thrco pages following a
series of paragraphs called 'Condensed
Republican Statu Platform.' Con
densed menus boiled down, I reckon.
If it does, tho fellow who did the boil
ing must have steamed away an entire
paragraph, becauso hero is a plank
which (lues not appear at all In the
folder, but which Is reported In thu
Omaha lice's account of thu Lincoln
convention:
"We believe that Individuals
should be encouraged to unite
their energies and their capital In
legitimate business and Industrial
enterprises. We favor a policy
which would Invite largo Invest
ments of capital In this stato for
the construction of transportation
lines, electric railways, power
canals, Irrigation projects and
manufacturing enterprises.'
"Now, what do you think of that?
Tho republicans, in convention as
sembled July 28th, thought It would
bo n bully thing for thu stato to 'Invito
largo Investments of capital . . .
for tho construction of transportation
lines, electric railways, power canals,
irrigation projects and manufacturing
torprisos.' That's rather a nifty
k, It seems to mo; but it didn't lit
I tli Bolter Howell's scheme of
lng thu stato to build power
s, so ho had It 'condensed' clear
tho platform."
