I earnestly desire every notary and I justice of the peace in the State of j j North Carolina to decline to'receive J any fees for work done for registrants . or soldiers.

M. TIDE OF DEFEAT LASHES STRONGLY ENEMY ARMIES IN FKANCE AND FlANDEUS and British Troops Are Victorious ..and the Entire <<erman Front From Yprcs to Solssons Is Yoduy More Se riously Menaced Than Ever Before. The tide of defeat ctill surges against the German armies in France and Flanders. On /our important sectors French and British arr.:s again have been served and the ent+fe German front from Ypres in Belgium to Sols sort's. on the Aisne, now Is more se riously menaced than before. French troops of Gen. Macgin, op erating from the region two miles j northw est of Soissons to the Oise river and those of Gen. Humbert, lighting between th^ Oise and the Matz, have materially pushed forward their fronts, bringing them to positions which threaten to compel immediate evacuation ot the entire Somme-Oise salient from Braye to Koyon. Farther to the north, between Albr rt and Arris, Field Marshal Haig has Tol owed up his successes of previous days by a new offensive over a front of about teif miles and driven forward his troops for splendid gains over the entire line, capturing a num ber of villages, taking prisoners and guns and inflicting heavy casualties on the enemy. ) Still farther horth, In the famous Lys> sector, a general eastward advance on a front of more than four miles has been made by the British, who have brought their positions apperciably , nearer the old 1916 battle line, run ning east ofArmentiers. Numerous additional villages have I been liberated by the French northeast of Soissons and positions have been captured on both sides of the Oiste river, which seemingly make un tenable for occupation by the enemy the important town of Noyon, which is now outflanked on the southeast an J dominated by the French guns from the south and went. On the south the French are standing in Sempigny, a mile and a half distant, while on the west they have captured the import and pivotal town of Lassignv. the key position to Noyon and the plains to the north. ^ With the latest advances by the Freirch east of the Oiso there hr.s come under the range of Gen. Mangin's guns the Broad Gauge railway line leading from Noyon eastward to La Lere?the sole remaining line, except for two narrow gauge roads, over which the enemy may transport his men and sup plies beyond the range o i ..he French artillery. * At last accounts Haig was still pressing forward on the heels of the Germans, between Albert and Arrcs. with tantys innumerable* clearing the way for the infantry and machine guns and the field artillery which was keeping close up to the advance. The Arras-Albert railway already hasbeen crossed by the British east of Boilieux pressed eastward in conformity. * On the Lys salient the Germans have delivered a counter-attack in an endea vor to recoup in part the losses they have sustained. Their efforts, however, were fruit less for the British everywhere with stood their assaults and pushed back the enemy beyond the points of his de parture. What Is to be the effect on the al- I lied drive alog the 120 mile battle line from Ypres to Soissbna cannot be foretold at present but it seems highly probable that the entire front must be realigned. Thf* particular menace to the Germans, aside rrom that in the territory between the Somme and the Oise, appears to be on the sector alorg the Vesle river from Solssons to Rhcitus, which from the war maps* looks untenable. Even the Aisne aid the Chemin des Dames do not appear to be any too safe for a defense line if Gen. Mangin presses much further northwest of Soissions. DEFEAT OF YAR I) A MANN NOW BEYOND DOUBT; NO SECOND PRIMARY Jackson. Miss.. Aug 21.?With all counties heard from. Congressman R. , P. Harrison of Gulfport, tonight ap parently wad nominated in yesterday's | senatorial prima y over his opponent, Senator James K. Vardamann. of Jack- | son. and former Governor E. F.

A few of the counties I were incomplete, but it was beleived that there were not enough votes un reported to reduce Hr.rrison's major ity lower than 2.000 even if all should be for Vardamann. In the *ixfh district, where Gover nor Theodore G. Hilbo is a candidate for Congress, a second primary is be lieved to he necessary, but Judge Paul I D. Johnson of Kattfeshurg, is far in j the load. FRENCH ADVANCE FIVE MILES AND CAPTURE MANY PRISONERS Paris, August 21.?Lasslgny has been raptured by the Franrh Forces, whose lines hav ? now rearhesd the outskirts of Chiry O ?rscamps, southwest of No yon.

"Near Neuf Berquin and Merville and south'of the Lys," says the official re port from headquarters today, "infan try detachments which had been left behind in the forefield of our new lines beat back several British thrusts and partial attacks." C APTURES STILL Sheriff H. A. Kearney, with ofTfeer B. H. Headows, .captured a still on the count? home property Sunday even ing, within about one and a half miles of th^ county home.

The old adage of talking about al! you hear with the proverbial "grain of trait" is true in the case of the*~itory that has been gaining ground that Can ada is not hospital to American vitlt ors. Poriaps this is some more of the German propaganda, floated about to stir up feeling between the two ' ig countries of North America. Anyway in entirely without foundation. There as never been a time when Americans were not gratiously received in any pp.rt cf the Dominion and rrivcn every ?onrtesy possible.' All that Canada is asking is "Are you a genuine Ameri can?" Satisfied on that pofnt her gates are wide open and the c~:::;t.*y Is yourB. If she stops to question t?!<> c who knock at her doo?s she i.' doing no more than we are. These are times ; when every one must prove his loyal ty to the land and f a:i'.Iulent Amcr? , cans or Canadians must be detained. If you're all right don't worry?Cana- I da welcomes you more than ever.

He was energetic and whatever fie laid his hands to Was done \vTFFT alacrity. He was a minute man in all his dealings and believec in prompt ness no matter what the ta?4t. He was a man's friend, he had no enemies and he was the enemy of none ?there was nothing too good or too arduous to be done for a friend. He did not declare his friendship?he showed it. and he showed H to the unfortunate most. The widows and orphans and their need drew his heart's best at all times. He was a demoted member fo his church For years he never missed a service at Ferry's cb; pel. For years he was fitp??;ii.>niltrii of its Sunday chool a'nd for a long t:me a deacon and leader in every church activity. One other cause that lay close to his heart was that of education.

Senators were al so informed that the Russian situation is very bad bebcause of the general 1 complexity of affairs there. They were [given to understand that thre was not Ipiuch chance of establishing a real of fensive on the eastern front because of [the great number of men that would be required. General March said that official re ports 'through the Spanish Emb*.*sy give no evi- jr.ce th^t American pris oners in Gcmany arc'singled out for mistreatment, as h:.s been report el.
