the republican progressive, socialist and
prohibition. In the Fifth district Con
gressman Barton, not only received the
nomination In his own party, the republi
can, but defeated the regular nominee
for the progressive nomination. Thomas
M. C. Birmingham of Grand Island, who
filed for the nomination on six different
tickets, landed In the front on two of
thorn, but the other four did not taku
lilm serioviBly when he made affidavit
that he affiliated with their own and so
he has to be contented with just the
prohibition and socialist nominations
which he landed hands down.

CAMP OF INSTRUCTION, ASHLAND,
Neb., Sept. S, 1914. A sharp general en
gagement took place between the Fifth
and Fourth regiments of the Nebraska
National Guard on the outskirts of Ash
land, ending in a complete victory for the
latter. Not only did the Fourth Infantry
I practically annihilate Its opponent, but
also succeeded in capturing Its staff of
ficers. Company P of the Fourth In
fantry, from Omaha, under the com
mand of Captain Yates, figured promi
nently In the battle, succeeding in cap
turing two of the enemy's companies.
Each of the regiments left camp In the
morning in light marching order, taking
rations with them.
Outposts of the warring regiments came
In contact with one another shortly after
dinner near the bluffs of the Platte river.
A general engagement wa soon In or
der all along the Burlington railroad
tracks, which the Fourth was defending.
It was while the Fifth regiment was at
tempting to storm the Fourth regiment's
defenses that it lost so heavily.
The Judges of the mlmlo battle were)
for the Fourth Infantry -Lieutenant 3.
V. Moll, U. S. A.: Lieutenant J.
Orece. IT. 8. A., and Lieutenant De
Lcncy. TT. S. A., while for the Fifth In

M. Blrkner acted as chief umpire,

The armv bakerv will leave camp
Wednesday to return to the army school

Officers of Company P. Fourth regi
ment, entertained ail officers of the mat
battalion Tuesday at dinner.
All fuel used In the camp Is taken from
the government rewrve facing the camp
on the east. Only the dead timber is
used.
The signal corps of Fremont was pain
Wednesday by Captain Strltzinger U S.
A as whs also the Twenty-ninth In
fantry of the regular army, which Is in
camp with the militiamen.
The discipline of the camp has ton o
good that so far no courts-martial have
been held. All the men placed under ar
rest are for minor offenses, the prlwne' s
merely being given extra duties for their
Irregularities.
A number of the militiamen feigning
sickness after being told of the long hike
thev were to take Thursday were soon
sobered up upon Inspection by the caw
doctors. They were given extra fatigue
work for their patne.
JAPAN LANDS MORE

(Continued from Page One.)
yond the confines of the Uerman leased
territory. Knowing, however, that its
protest would be useless, the foreign of
fice at the same time requested the
British and Japanese authorities to con
fine their operations to the aone extend
ing on the north from Lung Kow to
Llao Chow, and on the aouth to the
previously prescribed fighting area.
Neither legation, however, accepted these
limitations.
The British regiments which are ex
pected to take part in the investment of
Tsing Tau are still at Tien Tsin.
The foreign office later in the day
notified the foreign diplomats here that
Germany. Japan and Great Britain were
transgressing Chinese neutrality in Bban
Tung province and at the same time ex
pressed regret that China was unable to
prevent such transgression.
The note declares that China would
continue to enforce Its regulations re
specting neutrality outside of the .one
bounded by Lung Kow and Ua CHow on
the north and the breadth of the Kiao
Chow neutral sphere on the south. The
note concludes with these words:
But It l still incumbent on the bel
Ugerent powers to respect the territorial
and administrative rights of China and all
persons and properties within the area
defined above." ..,..

WASHINGTON, 6ept. 3.-Amcrlcan of
flcials today took the view that Inasmuch
as China had not made formal protest
and had announced that It would not op.
pose the Japanese troops, there was i not
likely to be any diplomatic complications
involving the United State resulting from
the landing of Japanese troops on Chi
nese territory.

MAKES PLEAJFOR ANTHEM
Commander of 0. A. R. to Perpetuate
Star-Spangled Banner.
PERMANENT HEADQUARTERS
Would Hare Head Offices In Wash-Ina-ton,
Where, l.eadera f'onld
Keen la Toaeh with All Pro.
posed Legislation.
DETROIT. Mich.. Sept. S.-A plea for
the jertet nation of "The Star Spangled
Banner" as the American anthem, with
out alloy, was made fervently by Wash
ington Gardner, comniander-tn-chlef of
the Grand Army of the Republic, In his
address before ths forty-eighth national
encampment of that organisation here to
day. He urged the old soldiers to Join In a
movement to pay special honor to this
song, and to discountenance the practice
of playing It In medley with such "flip,
pant and comparatively meaningless dit
ties" as "Yankee Doodle" and "When
Johnnie Comes Marching Home." He
said there waa something Inspiring In an
audience rising and standing uncovered
at the majestic strains of the national
anthem, but It as "Incongruous, border
ing even on the ludicrous." for the band
to strike up some other national air In
medley with this, and to observe the
audience resume sitting In "an Irregular,
half-ashamed manner." It were better
not to rise at all when the national hymn
Is played In medley, he said.
Permanent Headquarters,
A recommendation that permanent
headquarters for the Grand Army of the
Republic be established In Washington
waa another point In his address. Chi
cago and Philadelphia had been proposed,
but he preferred the national capital,
and thought that If possible the neces
sary space should be secured In a gov
ernment building, where the officers
could keep closely tn touch with matters
before congress which affected the Grand
Army.
A standing committee of seven persons,
with the commander-in-chief and adju
tant general of the Grand Army of the
Republic, as ex-offlclo members, he also
recommended, principally for the purpose
of taking churge of all legislation which
had the endorsement of the order. He
said that such a committee would "con
centrate responsibility, reduce expense
and give promise of better results."
"As it is now," he continued, "the
committees having to do with proposed
legislation, number, in the aggregate,
nearly ten times sevon and are widely
separated. It is difficult to have a gen
eral meeting, save at large expense to
the order or to the Individuals. Under
the present arrangement, responsibility
Is too widely diffused and rrembers too
rarely brought together for consultation
and concert of action.
On Soldiers Homes.
He urged that no change be made In
the method of management of the sol
diers' homes which are scattered through
out the United States. Concerning the
matter, he said:
"Not a single complaint has come to tho
knowledge of the commander-in-chief
from any member of any home during
this administrative year. It ia known
that an effort Is being made to place
these homes, now under the care and
supervision of our comrades, subject to
the approval of the War department. Into
the custody of men who never saw mili
tary service In actual war and whose
sympathies are not so likely to be di
rected toward our comrades, in their de- !
dining years. This seems to be a case
where the old rule, 'Lot well enough
alono' will apply. This encampment, In
my Judgment, should jay to coi gicss that
the Grand Arm of the Republlo Is de
cidedly against the proposed change."
The present msmberahlp, In good stand
ing, was reported as 171,335. During the
year the roll was curtailed by the death
of 11,178 old soldiers, but notwithstanding
this large figure, It is 1SI less than dbd
during the preceding year.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 3. The position
of the old British frigate Minden In Balti
more harbor, aboard which Francis Scott
Key wrote the "Star Spangled Banner"
after the bombardment of Fort Henry, 100
years ago is to be marked by a buoy. It
will be known as the "Star Spangled Ban
ner buoy" and probably will be placed In
position tomorrow by tho lighthouse
service.
RUSSIAN BEAR IS
CROWDING AUSTRIA
(Continued from Page One.)
has been a series of fights on an in
creasing scale until a third river known
as the Foul LI pa was reached. The fight
for the possession of the valley of the
Foul Llpa was severe. The Austrians
realised the strength of the Russians and
had strongly fortified a naturally formid
able position. This was carried after an
obstinate fight. The Austrian force, a
whole army corps, lost about half of Its
strength,
"These actions occupied the Russian
left, its right still being In Russian ter
ritory. It Is evident that all the actions
were part of a concerted movement with
the surrounding of Lemberg at Its objec
tive, thus dealing a death blow to the
Austrian defense."
Hasalana In East Prussia. ,
LONDON, Bept. .-(4:13 a. m.)-A dis
patch to the Keuter Telegram company
from Petrograd (St. Petersburg) gives the
following official announcement:
"The battle on the east front tn Oallcla
was participated tn by the Twelfth Aus
trian corps, which had only been trans
ferred from the Rumanian frontier on
August 36. The Austrian army haa been
I reinforced by numerous bodies of the
Landsturm.
"Our troops continue the offensive In
creasingly and our cavalry division bus
penetrated far into the Interior of East
Prussia, destroying means of communi
cation. They have also occupied a sta
tion tn the Koerachen region and Boldeau
and Sensburg.
The German forces remain Inactive.

Second Zeppelin
Raid on Antwerp
is Reported Futile
LONIVN, Sept. t-(7 p. m.)-The Ant
werp correspondent of the IVntral News
describes the second aerial raid on Ant
werp by a German Zeppelin which he said
occurred Just lieforc dawn. The bom
bardment he explained demonstrated
from a military point of view the futility
of the Germans efforts to do any dnmnge
of Importance. His description of the
aerial bombardments follows:
"I waa awakened by a rattle of rifle
fire from neighboring roofs and the
crash of exploding bomb. Hurriedly
descending 1 waa Just In time to see the
aldshlp disappearing southward at a
tremendous height. There was an In
cessant rattle of shots from rifles and '
machine guns from the dsrkened town,
and shrapnel could be seen exploding
like meteorites In the trail of the flying
marauder. All around from points of
vantage on the high buildings spurts of
flames Indicated the effoJs of the flrers
to bring down the hated Zeppelin.
"It Is believed the Zeppelin drifted over
the city with the aid of a brisk easterly
wind so that with Its engines almost sil
ent It was albe to get near enough to
the rlty to begin work unopposed. There
was no panic In the city, (he people re
maining In doors until dawn when they
gathered In small groups on the street
corners to discuss the outrage."
PARIS, Sept S.-(3:30 a. mi-Reports are
In circulation here that one of tha Ger
man aeroplanes which hovered over
Paris yesterday hal been brought down
at Champaagne. Several bombs were
dropped while the German machines were
here, but only one of them exploded and
