BORDEAUX, Sept. 24.—The French
cabinet issued a statement today in
which they paint the outlook in nor

the center is holding back the big
German army preventing i*. reaching
General von Kluck to render him aid.
Germans To Defend Brussels.
LONDON, Sept. 24.—The German
garrison in Brussels has been set to
work digging trenches, building barb
ed wire entanglements and mining

also from the allies now in France,
who are sure to follow up any ad
vantage gained from the present bat
tle on the Aisne.
British-Francb Troops To Charge
Heights.
The British troops have been
strongly reinforced and the French
are sending the Turcos, whom the
Germans fear, to take the heights
now held by von Kluck, who has a
line from Stamand through Denain to
Cambrai. If the heights are carried
the Germans must retire in disorder.
German Center Making Attack.
It is admitted here that the Ger
man center, strongly reinforced, is
now making a terrific attack upon
the French, that a strong force is
trying to retake Peronne and that
they are active all along the line in
order to prevent the destruction of
the German right and prevent the
sending of reinforcements to the al
lies so that they can overwhelm Gen
Vote For
George R. Goshaw
To the Voters of the Third Division:
As it is impossible for me at this time, owing to the close
of the mining and business season at this placer camp, to

this announcement through the medium of the press.
I desire your vote for Senator to the Territorial
legislature, from the Third Division, at the
Election on Tuesday, November the Third.
My friends have not urged me to seek this office, nor
does the office seek me, I SEEK THE OFFICE, and I want
your support and vote.
I am solely responsible for my; candidacy, and have
made no pledges or promises to any individual, party or
concern, and if elected will go to Juneau, absolutely unham
pered with ties of any kind; to do that which will advance
the interests of the whole people of Alaska:—not to go there
and vote “aye and nay” during the session, but to work
with a will and a knowledge of affairs, gained from a con
siderable experience, especially in this Division, and con
tinue such work, throughout the year and the entire term
of office.
If you feel that you can NOT honestly and sincerely
cast your ballot for any of the other candidates for this
office, THEN VOTE FOR ME. Yours very truly,
Chisana, Alaska, Sept. 1, 1914. GEORGE R. GOSHAW.

eral von Kluck.
Attack Is Terrific Along Meuse
River.
The Germans are making a terrific
attack on the positions held by the
French along the Meuse river, but
so far have made no material gain.
Von Kluck Prevents Effective Turn
ing Movement.
General von Kluck has prevented
the efforts of the allies to successful
ly turn his forces with their flank
ing movement and his skill has caus
ed much surprise and wonder among
the allies, who expected that when
they flanked him he would be forced
to fall back.
No Change At Reims.
No change can be noted at Reims
or Craonne and at St. Quentin the
allies are preparing to take the city
at the point of the bayonet. The
artillery duel continues at Reims with
varying success. Both sides are los
ing heavily. The reports that the
German artillery is shooting furth
er than that of the French, is de
nied here by the war office, which
asserts that if any thing the French
have superior artillery.
English Public Demand Fleet Become
Aggressive
LONDON, Sept. 24.—The public in
sists that the admiralty immediately
take the aggressive and the criti

one.
Great Joy In Berlin At British Fleet
Loss.
BERLIN, Sept. 24.—The German
nation is rejoicing at the wonderful
exploit of the commander of the Ger
man submarine in sinking three large

the German fleet and then the fight
ing will be on equal terms.
East Prussia Clear of Russians.

Russian invaders from East Prussia
and has forced them to seek shelter
behind their own fortifications in
Russia.
Raiiny Season Ends Campaign.
The start of the rainy season has
ended the- campaign in East Prussia
and the Germans will only keep a
small force in that section and will
move south to meet the Russians
coming through Poland.
Turning Movement Continues.
BORDEAUX, Sept. 24.—The turning
movement against the German right
continues although all efforts fail to
dislodge the Germans from the en
trenchments between the Oise and
Aisne rivers, which they hold in spite
of every effort on the part of the
allies.
Much Bayonet Charging.
Both armies resort frequently to
the use of the bayonet, which seems
to be the final method of forcing
the enemy to give ground as the
men of both armies have learned to
build bomb proof entrenchments and
it takes the knife to force them to
evacuate the trenches.
General von Moltke’s Son Killed. .
PARIS, Sept. 24.—The only son of j
General von Moltke was killed in j

LONDON, Sept. 24.—The Russian
movement is a huge wedge extend

and* with refineries.

but is waited with intense interest.
Bankers Will Stop War.
GENEVA, Sept. 24.—Bankers here j
predict that the war will soon be j
stopped as the financial interests of
the world will refuse to allow it to !

the resources of the nations involved.

steps have already been taken to ,
stop the war and it is expected they
will be successful.
Russians Reduce Przemysl Forts.
PETROGRAD, Sept. 24.—The Rus- j
sian siege guns have reduced five of
the Austrian forts about Przemysl !

Cracow. The Russian successes are 1

British and Japs At Kiao Chau
TONDO, China, Sept. 24.—British
troops from Wei-hai-Wei have joined
the Japanese troops now besieging
Kiao Chau and will fight with them

man shells set flree to the Reims
cathedral the enraged populace would
have killed the wounded Germans who

church in the world and the loss has
embittered them against the Germans.
