America with a great burnper harvest corning, has enough grain to can- for the deficits of all. If all maintain a "victory bread and flour" system. That was the announcement from the United States food udrninis- stJ tration Morula v. All wheatless days and meals for America are abolished, but all bread used in this country w must correspond to the bread to be . used abroad. It must not exceed Kfi per cent wheat. "It has been agreed that the wheat bread for the Allies shall contain 20 per cent grain other than w wheat, und it is only that we should bear our share In this saving and that our bread should be universal with th those who a is- suffering more greatly d< from the war than ourselves." says the announcement from Herbert Hoover's onii'i-. Kxiirl |iro|iort Ions for miximr "victory flour" are given: Four pounds of of wheat Hour to ono pound of barley, ed Four pounds of wheat flour to one ^ pound of corn flour. Fight pounds of wheat flour to one pound of barley lo flour and one pound of corn flour, m Three pounds of wheat flour to not y? less than two pounds of rye flour. Whole wheat, entire wheat or graham flour or meal must contain at least 95 .. |ier cent of wheat berry. ? The nation will not becomo "bone dry" until July 1. 1919, at the earliest, h; even In the event of the passage of the W( wartime prohibition measure now . pending in congress. The prohibition 1 forv?*s of the senate have agreed to amend the prohibition rider to the lood production bill, which is schedul- tii ed to collie up for debate ill the up- tr |ht branch of congress as soon as the . man-power bill has been disposed of. so as to permit the s;tle of whiskies and other distilled spirits until July th 1, instead o* piohibiting their sale ,|, after January 1. as the amendment . . originally provided. The agreement of the prohibitionists was obtained es under presure from the White House. Senator Sheppard of Texas, had a long talk on the subject with I'resi- f dent Wilson on last Saturday, he rtJ said today, and the president insisted n< upon an extension of time so the th stocks could be disposed of, and the government obtain the revenue from the sales. There are approximately 1,1 150.000,000 gallons of whisky in bond, ai and mder the new revenue bill more tb , lh"ff ft ,11(10,0011,mm woqM be derived from taxes this year! The present fiscal year ends June 30. and the extension of time for selling the liquors until then would turn several n, hundred million dollars of badly need- bl ed revenue into the treasury. ? A thrilling story is at hand telling ^ how a squadron of French hussars sc rode down a machine gun nest, charg- til lug full In the face of the deadly lire n of the Germans. The foe command had brought up regiments of crack infantry and ordered them to stop the *' French advance toward the Ailette in river at all costs. A terrlflc and ac- ... curate artillery tire soon comitellcd the Germans to beat a retreat, but 111 while doing so they left six heavy machine guns, situ ngnung uruunu Mareull farm In the Epugn.v region. The death-dealing guns were sweeping the plain and rendering further French advance impossible, when the vt cavalry squadron was ordered into tii action. The mounted men moved forward in the face of a hail of bullets to what nppeured to be certain death. 1,1 Suddenly the squadron otlieer sighted to the crew of one of the machine guns |;l which was tiring on his men. He . shouted the order to the men to 1 charge and the whole force of men tr and horses shot forward as from a el l?olt. their sabres flashing in the sun. ;i| They reached the Hermans before the latter had time to recover from their 111 surprise, killed one. wounded several, captured the nuichine guns and took eight prisoners, with the result that a breach wjis made in the centre of resistance which the infantry soon took udviuitage of. The squadron of si' cavalry was cited in the order of the a, day and the cuptain was decorated. ^ ? Herman soldiers believe Hermany is not planning any more offensives because of the manpower shortage, se according to one of a party of seven hi of a Herman patrol captured by the . Americans early Sunduy east of Fismen. The soldier, who was a former 18 biuik employee and the owner of a cc Berlin restaurant, said the soldiers \y no longer had any enthusiasm for war. Most of those with whom he ;is came in contact believed the war to would end soon. The prisoner had to been fighting three years and declnred he was thoroughly tired of It. He ^ said the soldiers understood that the Pf Herman losses during the recent Al- so lied offensive had l>een very great. re; These reports were credited by the soldiers and were having a demoral- co bsing effect. He said he knew of one an division of 15,000 which had been re- th duced to less than 1,000. He did not .. know what became of the men. Plenty of Hermans, he added, would desert HI and surrender if given the opportuni- th lv Monv nf t hotn urn PAnutn ntlv watching for a chance to give themselves up to the Americans. Trouble had been threatened in the German an munition plants, and the army lead- fo; era were tightening conditions there. un lie said the rules governing munition workers were more strict now than 01 ever. Germany, he said, has plenty th of ammunition, but the man power be question and the actual entry of , American troops into the fighting are worrying the military leaders. be ? Dewlopments on the western no front during the next 4S hours should determine the fate of the much-vaun- mi ted "Hindenburg line", in the opinion jjj of some military officials in Washington. With the strength of the line al- J,, ready materially impaired by the British wedge driven around its left flank ^ and even more telling blows threatened by the steady advance of the French through Neele towards the Somme and by the British east of Arras, observ ers here believe that scheme of defense Fu popularly held in Germany to be the bulwark of the western front is in a fair way to become untenable before the main Teuton forces have mi been driven back to it The lmpres- l'u sion prevailing in military circles here rl* la that General Foch's tactlcts have 01 forced upon the enemy the necessity Ct>i of making every effort along the prea- on ent front to stay the Allied advance, s& without the option of withdrawing NO "unnoticed."

JOY RIDING EMBARGOED lei Administration Frowns on Useless Waste of Gasoline. Washington. Aug. 27.?The fuel adnistration today called upon the blic in states cast of the Mississippi er to cease the using of all classes automobiles with a few named exptions, motorcycles and motorboats, Sundays until further notice, as a sollne conservation measure. Only luntary compliance with the letter d spirit of the request will prevent 9 issuance of a mandatory order ohlbiting the use of gasoline on ndays, it was declared at the fuel ministration.

The Germans facing the Allied forces from Arras to .Solssons everywhere are 1 In dire peril. rc On almost every sector of the bat- 111 the front the eneiny line continues to ai crumble before the Allied attack, not- n? t withstanding the violence, born of des. peration, of the counter offensive tactics. c' Xcar Arras, the old Hindenburg line now Is well outflanked; from the , Scarpo to the Somme the hostile line is gradually lulling back, while from the south of the Somme to So ssons * ?!! ? Sunn ' the enemy front nas meruit; *>? smashed and the German hosts apparently are caught in two distinct traps, escape from which without heavy losses in men made prisoner and guns and CI material captured, seems almost im- Pi possible of achievement. B< ? Scores of additional towns have been N< , captured by the British. French and Sr American troops, the Americans hav- ~ J ing entered the fray with the French northwest of Soissons, while all of the old German salients in the Allied lines now have been flattened out and the , Allies tin niseives have dug deeply into the enemy's terrain. I'i The first trap in which the enemy finds himself is the triangle formed by , the sharp curve of the Somme river with I'eronne its apex and with Curlu on the Somme and Fresnes respectively its northern and southern bases. This triangle is a little more than three miles deep and six miles wide, and In . it the Germans are fighting with their backs toward the Somme on both the north and east. 5 Desperate resistance is lieing offered 1 hy the enemy in order that his men ? may have time to reach a haven of safety across the stream, but the British are hard after their <iuarry, and with the French almost up to the river to aid them by an outflanking movement. it would seem that the odds are heavily against the GermansIt was the French troops who 1 sprang the other trap.- With the fall s of Cliaulncs the French forces routed . the enemy over a front of about 19 ' miles and penetrated the region to a 1 depth at some points of nearly seven 1 miles. From tho north of Chaulnes to s Nesle the penetration of the French reached the heights on the left bajik I the Somme; southward the-advance reft the Fnencn" along the CsftfU Dunord nt various points between Nesle . and the outskirts of Noyon, south and southeast of Noyon gains also were ' made and Noyon and the entire rer gion between Neslo and Soissons now i are in a great pocket and with the , French pincers working hard to close it up. The Americans are fighting with the s French northwest of Soissons in the s operation which has in view the blot- t.( . ting out of tho Noyon sector and the outflanking of the Aisne and the old sl 1 Fhi-min-Des-Dnmes positions. Olfl- ti i cial reports have the Americans and {U French fighting violently with the ene- (> my around Juvigny anu ^na?. where they have gained some ground. vs 1 The Americans have successfully sus- ei tained several enemy counter-attacks j? j in this region. The Americans and the Germans also ' are engaged in bitter battle around Ba> zoches and Flsmette on the Vesle. i The Germans endeavored to ford the , Vesle south of Hazoches, but were held by the Americans. Likewise an enemy 1 assault against Kismetto was stopped. The German official communication . asserts that the Americans have suffered severe losses and lost more than 250 prisoners in the battle along the Vesle. i .? ? B HON. R. A. COOPER 1 Brief Sketch of Next Governor of South Carolina. Ci Robert A. Cooper, who has been ^ ; nominated for governor of South jV . Carolina, says a Laurens correspon- p dent, is 44 years of age, a son .of Mr. H j and Mrs. Henry A. Cooper, both de- H . ceased. The Cooper family lived In ^ j Waterloo township, engaged in farm- x . ing. As a boy Mr. Cooper attended N* j the public schools of his community ? a few months each year. When he ^ ' reached his 20th year, Mr. Cooper SI r arranged to attend the Jones High S| school in Greenwood county, going one ^ 1 year. This school at that time was taught by W. P. Culliertson of Laurens ~~ ' county. At the end oi ine year, iur. t Cooper took the county teachers' oxt ainLnation and obtained a certificate . to teach in the public schools and for about two years he taught in Laurens je t and Greenville counties, s Deciding to take up the study of , law Mr. Cooper came to Laurens in m 1897 and mid law in the office of the m late John L. Irby. In a few months . i he was admitted to the bar and en- JU I tered upon the practice of his professlon. In 1S99 he was appointed mag- fo istrate for Laurens. In 1900 he was je elected to the legislature and was rel elected in 1902. In 1905 he was elect. ed solicitor of the new Eighth circuit rt ' and for 12 years he filled the office of v( ' prosecuting attorney with conspicuous I ability and courage. With an ambition 1 to be of larger public service to his f state. Mr. Cooper entered the race for fo governor in 1914, receiving a hand- . ' soinc vote, and incidentally laying the foundation for success which has 01 crowned his aspirations at the end of the third race for the high office of f0 governor. Mr. Cooper is the first Laurens . county citizen to be elected to the Li ( governorship, though the late Chief f0 . Justice William D. Simpson, as lieutenant governor, succeeded to the of" ? -.-uUamntnn U'flfi olootm) to the H I'nlted States senate. nt Mr. Cooper, richly endowed with m natural gifts, has nevertheless been and is a student, a liberal and broad or minded thinker, and withal an omia- ba ble. companionable man. He is a member of the Baptist church and for several years has been a member of the board of deacons of the First 79 church of Laurens. In all public matters, county, state and national, Mr. Cooper hae ever been ready to render unselfish service, and for years he has be been looked upon as a leader in this as section. He is interested in farming and has given much time and means to the promotion of different enterprises of the city, with some of which ou he is officially connected. ha In 1914 Mr. Cooper lost his wife, ^ who was before marriage Miss Mamie Machen of Princeton, this county. A little daughter, now ten years old. te< survives the mother. Last November. 3 Mr. Cooper married Miss Dorcas Calmes, a native Laurens girl, who roi had spent several years in Columbia. EX ?OCAX.

CAMPAIGN EXPENSES All the candidates for the various county offices have complied with the statute requiring the filing before the election of statements, giving itemized ax-counts of their campaign expenses. The biggest part of the expense of each candidate up to last Monday has been his party assessment.

The breaking of the long drought Wednesday was quite agreeable even it it was without benefit to vegetation. ? The commissioners of public works are experimenting with the proposition of Increasing the local water suppl> by means of wells bored on the pump station property on the outskirts of town. Two 2-lnch wells were bored some days ago to .a depth of 75 feet, and together they have since been affording a water supply of about twenty-five gallons per minute without showing any sign of exhaustion. The water stands within a few feet of the top of the wells. ? There was a representative of the food administration in Yorkville some da\s ago looking into the margin of profits that the local merchants uncharging for the necessaries of life. He questioned each merchant as to uhat he was paying for meal, hominy and the like, and looked up his records to see that he was complying with the requirements of the administration as to substitutes, etc. He found that all were selling necessities at tin exceedingly close margin; but nevertheless, on a basis of his report, several dealers received letters from Administrator Elliott. The concensus of local opinion is that the margin of profit allowed on necessities is far less than the expense incut red in handling them.
