FRIDAY EVENING AUGUST 11, 1916 Frke Two Cents RUSSIANS FORCING WAY TO LEMBERG'S DEFENSES; Make Rapid Strides Against Austrians in Galicia Italians Also Putting Austrians to Bad in Isonzo British Gain Ground and French Shell Germans. (By Associated Press.) With rapid strides the Russians are forcing their wuy along the Dniester in Galicia in the direction of Ilahez, considered one of the main outlyng tenses of Lemburg on the south. (They already have reached the Dniester to the south of Mariampol, u town only eight miles soutreast of llal'u".. Likewise they are pressing t. Monaster-Zyska, directly east of ilalicz. Spreading out in a fan like forma tion from Gorizia, the Italians arc pressing the Austrians to the cost and southeast along a 12-mile front. The principal ecort apparently is directed rewards Triest, with the probable ob ject of forcing Austrians from their salient in the Isonzo. lhitish pressure on tre Somme is directed at the azen-la-Petit and Pozieres region and they have marte additional progress north of both of 'thee places, London announce.. The French in the Somme region tvidently are preparing for a new offensive movement ns they are pour imr a concentrated fire on German positions. Til K WAlT SITUATION liv the .Military Expert of the New York Tinles. ,I5y the capture of the bridgehead at Gorizia, which was announced by the Italians yesterday, Austria has Urn repaid with interest the blow struck in June in the Trentino. It is ,ni.uestionably the greatest victory the Italians have won since the be ginning of the v,ar. Italy's plan ot campaign from the beginning, it will tie remembered, was to neutralize the Trentino by blocking up all the passes leadin" into the Italian plain, and to smash through by a heavy attack the Austrian line of the Ison zo In the first named feature of the.h operations they have been en tirely successful. In the latter, how tr, they had up to yesterday met with failure. They did succeed in the earlier days of the war in crossTnp the river far down near its mouth near Mon Falcone, and in controlling its t'-i tern hank from Monfalcone to ( I ra 1 s i 'a North of Gradisca, how it, has been the great block to tt 'ir progress, the Gorizia bridge iu'id. If etv they have been held up ti'r.n the beginning. Th.- importance of Gorizia is evi dent fivm an inspection of the rail road 'irnntion and of the main topo irrapr.i. a I feature. Tho Isonzo comes du'.vt. f r( m the mo'intans through a nano,v goige. Us current is always ift, the stream deep and unfordablo. Jf is, therefore, almost an impossiDi '. i : t. cenf tmct across it the usual niiihiry pontoon bridge. Just north of rh!a tc river broadens out and flows through a stretch ofcompara ticly 1 .I country In the nature of a nail plain or valley. At the begii i in'r of this plain or valley is Gorizhi "if. The town is situated in a pocket. "h" mountains curve in behind it and irijiwd it, leaving it fitttd snugly in, i -minded on three sides by the J . -.i. .'.ntams and on the fourth by the f ''in-'o. .South of town is the brrdere-hi-id hc point where the railroad ii m Udinr? crosses the river. This is h' point which the Italians have been .'ivhting for almost from the begin i i r: -c. this the piont the capture of h:rh they announced last night. The town itself still holds out. While ii large number of prisoners were captured in the positions at the bridgehead, the Austrian positions in the hills surrounding the village are ". t recure. These positions are be- stormed by the Italians who now have easy access across the rrver. .lust what effect the bridgehead mil have on the situation is too ar!y to say. Several things are, hoNvevr, apparent. In the first place, th Austrians are weaker not only on this front, but in every other field i i a ri they have been at any other time since the beginning of the war, ,.ith Russia applying her tremendous power all along the Teuton front in hi-c territory, Austria has to make the comparatively small number of troop she has left go as far as pos- Me. Therefore the number of men holding each mile of the Austrian line le.T, and h morover, growing less till. The next prent is that Italy, itaiv is after Triar.to and Tstna Both lie beyond the Isonzo and what t-ver guarded tholitor.go for the Aust rains kept the Italians back from heir object.. In or.br to make tny headvav toward either one it r.i absoli.Uly essential in " y j v ... .i i.-i.. tree and goou avenue hum mc ; by which not nly men and supplies,) but heavy I'Miis can be brought from, been able to mi.'.e since the begin V' JusVwhatVitaly will do now no one what 'uy ' ,5 fc j to Udine runs to Trieste by way of San no matter now i.anisn.. nuK.. th year ago he dressed a wht -.wperiority she niM;ht have in more Admiral Von iTirpitz through men i.t equipment aosolutely was Jttttr w Aa v. neld fart i.nd unable to .a-Svaro-3 , I J?" e settini? forth the idea of vdu- bridgehead at Gorizia fell into her; ritish bockade by this Daniele. This valley would seem the logical line of advance. If this ad vance were made successfully the en tire Austrian line south of the valley would be turned. There is also anoth er possible line of attack which will undoubtedly have consideration when the Italian staff is preparing- for its next move. This is the line from Gorizia toward Unterloitsch bv wav of Aidussina. The object here would be to cut on Istria from the rest oi Austria and thus to isolate the troops which are now in Istria. This would be the more destructive move of me two, as it would, if successful, entire ly destroy as far as military value is concerned, a large section of the Aus trian Army. Speculation as to what will follow this Italiaa success is at the present time idlo. Italy's next nvve will prove of the greatest in terest, and from it we can tell which course she will follow. There is one point, however, that I wish to impress in connection with this new Austrian defeat. That is Austria's rapidly dwindling strength. We have no means of knowing with any degree of accuracy how many me of suitable fighting age Austria still has with the colors, on the firing line, and in reserve. But we hava seen Austria driven literally from pillar to post, standing only when bolstered up with German contingents. Close to a million men have been put out of action in the last ten weeks, the majority of them permanently, so. Part of her force is disorganized by a succession of defeats as disastrous as the defeats which hurled Russia out of Gallicia a year ago. On the Isonzo, Austrian 'held the strongest defensive line in all of Europe, with the possible exception of the Vistula. This line Austria nas been holding with comparative ease. Italy threw the' best she had against it and was defeated, not once but many times. She has struggled for an individual position, not for days or weeks, but for considerably over a year, without success. There came a lull; a period in which Austria had time to rest from the succession ot attacks and to perfect her prepara tions for those that were to come. This lull extended over several months. Then Italy struck and in five days broke down the Austrian resis tance and took the position. There can be but one reason for the sudden success, and that is the weakening of the Austrian field forces by war s depletion. Germany may persist, but Austria seems done for. Germany may forse Austria to remain techni cally in the war and to furnish sucn aid as her remaining resources war rant. But Austria as an independent unit, as a fighting military entity, is to all practical purposes a nullity. Russia again reports another crush ing blow delivered to the Teuton line !.t CalL'ia. The Stokhod front has temporarily lost interest. The Rus sians are evidently for the time being just sufficiently active to keep the German:; busy while her main blows are being 3truck against the Lemberj front. The blow this time fell between the Dr.eister and the Pruth northwest of Kolomea, and is directed primarily at Stanislau. Reports received trout this front are not yet complete and we have a none too definite idea of just what has been accomplished. The VV.ri.O.i'r. evidently nave neon auvane :ig up along the Dneister Ri ver and iia've thrown back the Teuton? practi cally to a straight line joining tut mouth of the Zlota Lipa River with the town of Nadworna. if thts sflouia prove to be the beginning of the Aus train retreat between these two riv ers, the Austriah position in northern Galicia is in the fullest sense of the word desperate. But one thing stands between the Austrian line along the Stripa and utter disaster, the River Dneister. If this river should be forc ed near Stanislau where the Russians are now fighting before the Austrians make good a fifteen-mile retreat to the line of the Zlota Lipa, the Rus sians are practically certain to ach ieve the greatest success they have yet won since their offensive began on the 4th of June. niTTfril OFFICERS URGED BREAKING OF BLOCKADE (By Associated Press.)

Athens, Aug:. 11- The forthcom-j ing elections in Greece (which cable j advices have announced will be held! in SepteiryVr) a . e being regarded with great importance, in view of what has taken place during the past fifteen months. It is declared, par-1 ticularly by the adherents of the j former premier, Venizelos, that mil-i itarism is in the balance against j democracy, and that the divine right! of kings is pitted against republi-l canism. ! The campaign has already begun with Venizelos serving both as a ' rallying point and as a point of at-' tack. The ahti-Veni"elos journals a ej calling him a traitor, accusing him of having sold his country to the entente powers and proclaiming him as a potential dictator who would turn his country into a French pro tectorate. The Venizelists on the other hand; have assumed the attitude that the 1 king has no power under the constl-l tution, and therefore they are stop-' ped from assailing him for exercls-1 ing a power which they deny exists. The king is really popular, and i though many Greeks disapprove out-! spokenly of the royal participation ' in politics, thorc is no bitterness! against Constantine i., personally, Nor is the figure head late premier1 Stephan Skonloudis especially at tacked, 'Those who come in for a i.-i tack by the Venizelists are the of ficers of the General Staff, the Ger- ' man propagandist Baron Schenck .' I and ex-minister of Interior, Dcrne trios Gounaris, the real head of the Greek oligarchy. ' There is nothing polite about the politicar methods of the Greeks. 'Strong epithets are commonly ap-: fplied opponent? in the editorials of: j respectable Athenian journals. And ! although the army is in process ot '; demobilization, its officers are draw ing every possible political ad van l-! age of its organization while there ;is yet time. The soldiers of tor'ay, 'who will be citizens tomorrow, are harangued, treated to orders of the day and manifestos and enerally shepherded by their officers into the anti-Venizelist fold. Each tram bringing "reservists" (demoTi;zoi , soldiers) from Macedonia is accom- . panied by one or more officers wno talk -olitics to the men until they' split up to return to their homes. Political leagues are being formed ji. . i i .i among ine reservisiis uivier tne tutelae of anti-Venizelist ocico"---, and every effort is being made to converse qll the political advantages of mobilization after the army has been disbanded. These methods are fraught with menace to any sort of peaceful elec tions. Venizelos declared that the intervention of the powers guarant ors of Greece on June 21 saved the country from impending revolufon, and it said now that thrt prospect has not been entirely disposed ot, even yet. Elephtehrios Venizelos, besides !" ing one of the great statemen ot Europe today, is also a very astute politician. Jlis personal organ, the Herald, which appears every Sunday, has some 300,000 subscribers. and the Cretan writes at least one lead-; ing article every week. His follow 'ers are busy in every ca"e as all of , i Greece lives in the cafes in the sum-j imer. There is just one topic of dis-: ,cussion: 'Venizelos and the Consti-; tution or: Gentlemen! The Kin;! i I A neutral diplomatist says: "The: trouble in Greece is not yet over. It is just just beginning. King Con-1 stantine cannot logically accept" the j elections calmly, for the elections! CAMPAIGN OFF WELL HER: Commerce Early Today Persons are vaccinated anywhere from 18 months on up. Dr. Jordan told the people facing him. this morn ing. There is not .much danger of a nursing baby's taking rypn. but one never gets too old to he subject to the disease. In every part of the county, as the figures indicate, the people have res ponded to the call. At I! rook ford yesterday 403 persons were vaccinat ed, and at all other stations the res ponse was good. Considering the fact that physicians in Hickory and other parts ' of the county have dene a great deal of work, it is probable that 10.000" persons will have been immunized when the cam p..:gii ends in three weeks. Many persons on seeing the big crowd at Chamber of Commerce v-.c it away to return later and there was the prospect of a busy day for the health officer. Each person vaccinated was given a tag and number which are to tie presented on the seconU and third visits to the dispensary. Will September War is Likely mean the return of Venizelos. And Venizelos is determined to make it impossible for all time to con-.n for the sovereign in Greece ever to take the reins of power as Constantine 1. has done if the Cretan has to change the Greek constitution to do it. .For King Constantine o ccpt this is equivalent to abdication and I believe he will actually ab dicate before he will do it. "What is a still bitterer piil for the king to swallow is that the re turn of Venizelos in all prohabditp means the entry of Greece into ihe iOuropean war on the side of the al lies. They saj that Veniz--lo; and his follower are already placing or ders for the necessary munition-; yr.d aimament for the Greek army- m that event. Can you sec ("on.-. tan tine I. leading his men against the forces of his brother-in-law, the kaiser, while Venizelos, whom' he re gards as his .arch-enemy, governs the country in the royal name? ''Considering the attitude of t'.m king up to now, jt seems only logical that he must resist by every possi ble means the return of Vepf;;eos to power and all that return ;',-us. After ali, the king has put himself in the position of a loader ;f a political p.irly, and if he !;fs he may lind that the sole coiis'sten) course to follow ;s that iiicunil. iit on a political leader v ho has lost retire to private life." Ouuvardiy, there h nothing visible in Greece to justify this statement. Th PC Greek c;d.:r,e I're- m'er Zit'mis has loyally car-ic 1 out tiie demands laid down in the e.n.-n'e dtimatum of ,!une 21.
