THE WORLD WAR.
Week's Happenings Reviewed by the
Editor.
The close of the eighteenth day of
the battle of the Aisne in France has
not brought any decisive result. The
Germans are holding their ground no
doubt chosen for this great battle
while their skirmishers and outposts
were over-running the country. The
retirement of the latter forces on the
main force was heralded as a disas
trous retreat by the eager allies, but
evidently were a part of the strategic
plan of the invaders, for their main
column has withstood the assaults for
eighteen days without any sign of ser
ious weakening. Wherever tne allies
strike they find the invaders in force
to meet them. The reports, nearly
all from French and English sources,
paint pictures of fearful fighting and
of hideous hand-to-hand conflicts, us
ually ending by describing the worn
out conditions of the Germans and
suggesting that they will soon retreat.
German official reports are very meag
er as censured in the English tele
graph offices. They deprecate j.ny
suggestion of German retirement.
They report indecisive fighting along
the line while their siege artillery are
reducing the immense French fort
resses on the frontier. When Verdun
falls, they claim, direct railroad com
munications will enable them to safe
ly move forward.
In Belgium only a small triangle of
territory between Antwerp, Ostend
and Ghent is yet controlled by the Bel
gians, the balance is in the iron haLds
of the invaders. A German army is
preparing to lay piege to Antwerp and
German airmen are terrorizing all the
Belgian cities along the English chan
nel. England's published motive for
entering the war was to assist the op
pressed Belgians but up to date there
is no sign that she is sending any ar
mies to drive the Germans out of Bel
gium, the English forces being con
centrated with the French in order to
attempt to rid France of the foe.
In the east the Russians are con
tinuing to claim great victories over
the Germans. It is noticeable, how
ever, by the simple expedient of lo
cating the lines at the points where
the victories are supposed to have oc
curred, that the German lines have
pushed eastward more than a hundred
miles since the capture of the Rus
sian army at Allenstein several weeks
ago. Instead of investing Konigberg,
in East Prussia, as recently claimed,
the Russians are now accorded big
headlines for repulsing an attack of
the Germans on the river Niemen at
the eastern boundary of the govern
ment of Suwalki in Russian Poland,
which appears by our map to be 150
miles nearer St. Petersburg and Mos
cow than is Konigsberg. Evidently
every invading Russian has been hurl
ed back from East Prussia and the
German defense line is ii tact from
the Baltic thru Russia Poland to Sil
esia in Austria, all the way inside of
the enemy's country. Whether the
Russians are more truthful in describ
ing their victories over the Austrians
remains yet to be proven.
Events on the sea during the week
have seemingly favored the Germans.
Three great British cruisers were tor
pedoed by a German submarine and
sank in the North Sea with the larger
share of their crews. The German
cruiser Emden in the Indian Ocean is
continuing to capture and destroy
English merchantmen. These German
successes have stung the British to
the quick, and important naval devel
opments are again promised.
Events In the far East are quicken
ing. The Japanese, with their trem
endous resources of men and ships are
closing in on the German garrison of
Kiao-Chow. The Chinese have blown
up a railroad bridge to hamper the
progress of the Japanese whom are
violating the neutrality of China. This
act suggests probabilities of further
complications.
The Christian Herald publishes a
map entitled, "The Blood-Red World"
which is very startling. Take any
map of the world on Mercator's pro
jection and color red the maps of the
nations at war and"their dependencies
and see the result.

The nuisance of finding letters in
your mail soliciting orders for intoxi
cating liquors is well on the way to be
stopped. Thanks to County Attorney
Thornton of Swift county and a de
cision by Judge G. E. Qvale of Will
mar it is held unlawful for any per
son or corporation to solicit orders
for intoxicating liquors by mail in dry
territory.
A mail-order liquor house in St.
Paul, Lewis L. Metzer Co.. was ar-Four
rested on complaint of County Attor
ney E. L. Thornton early this sum
mer, charging them with tin crime of
soliciting by mail orders for liquors
in "dry" villages and townships of
Swift county. Atty. Thornton claimed
and showed that it was the habit of
these mall order liquor houses to flood
places that had voted out saloons with
advertisements soliciting orders by
mail.
Attorney Hiram D. Frankel of St.
Paul appeared for the liquor houses.
He contended that the law did not for
bid soliciting sales of liquor by mail.
The case was argued before Judge
Qvale at Willmar in July, and a de
cision was handed down last week de
claring it to be unlawful to solicit
trade for liquor houses by mail in dry
territory.
This is the first attempt made in
the state to curb the mail order
"booze" nuisance, and it is a credit
to our city and district that our Judge
Qvale should hand down the decision.
Similar action has been taken in the
state of Georgia, but the law of that
state differs somewhat from that of
ours, so that there is really no prece
dent to Judge Qvale's decision. No
doubt the decision will be taken to the
supreme court for its revision.

SAAVE SHIPSTEAD.
On Sept. 15, one of the old well
known and highly respected citizens
of Burbank Township, Mr. Saave Ship
stead, .was gathered tennis fathers at
the ripe age of 79 years, death result*
ing from general debility.
Saave Shipstead was born at Kvlte
seid parish, Telemarken, Norway,
Dec. 14, 1835. ^In his younger man
hood days he engaged at railway work.
In 1863 he came to this country, ar
riving to Dane county, Wis. In the
fall of the same year he came to Da
kota County, Minnesota. In the fall
of 1865, as the wave of Immigration
came to the frontier after the war
and Indian troubles had subsided, he
located a homestead in Burbank. The
following summer he married Miss
Christine Tomine Ellefson, and they
have lived on the old homestead near
ly a half century. Mrs. Shipstead died
about three years ago. They had
twelve children, of whom nine survive
to mourn the death of their father.

Shipstead of Willmar and by a sis
ter, Mrs. John Peterson of Spicer.
There area number of grandchildren.
The funeral occurred on the 18th,
when Rev. E. M. Hanson officiated and
consigned the remains to their rest
ing place in the Gausdahl churchyard.
The Belgrade Tribune, the local news
paper, pays the following tribute to
the memory of the worthy old pioneer.
"Mr. Shipstead was a man of gener
ous impulses and never forgot the
hospitable ways of the pioneer. He
had borne adversity bravely and en
Joyed prosperity quietly. He was
a man of sound sense eminently and
well fitted to mould the rude elements
of pioneer society. How much he ac
complished in his community and
sphere of life it would be difficult to
estimate, though it would be a grate
ful and delightful task to trace his in
fluence through some of the more
direct channels, and to hold up our
present society the high standard of
citizenship he exemplified in his life
work. He has filled the various re
lations of life, as husband, father,
neighbor and friend, and filled them
well and the splendid sons and daugh
ters that he reared will perpetuate his
good name and emulate his virtues."

Hammond Opens Campaign.
Congressman W. 8. Hammond left his
official duties at Washington long
enough to open his campaign for gov
ernor with a speech at Redwing Mon
day and a hurried day trip thru south
eastern Minnesota, and then returned to
Washington. He is determined to stick
to his important public duties on the
ways and means committee until Con
gress adjourns regardless of the Minne
sota campaign, while we had hoped to
see him at willmar before election, as
there are hundred of voters who would
like to hear him, still we believe peo
ple will honor him for sticking to his
post apparently at a sacrifice to his per
sonal interests. The Willmar Tribune
will publish Hammond's keynote speech
in full next week.
