Band ban. By MAJOR E. W. DAYTON, Writer for the Army and Navy Jour nal and Military Expert of the "Examiner." The great battle of the Somme has now entered upon the ninth week. As it developed In July the hope spread wide that here at last might be the beginning of an end.

As August wanes even the bravest optimist must admit that the end remains almost at remote as though no such battle had been fought. There can be no question that the effort has resulted In a great and glorious victory for allied arms In Plcardy. RUINS OF 20 TOWNS TAKEN. Brave regiments have fought and died to take back from the German Invaders the ruins of about twenty little towns and villages between Thlepval and Estress, on a curvinr front of approximately twenty miles, Just east of Albert. The French fighting between Estress and Hardecourt have manned rather more than half of the line engaged and have gained much" more ground than their British comrades.

At Blaches the French have pushed their enemy back five miles, and are less than two miles from the city of Peronne, their Immediate objective. North of Hardecourt the British have rained three to four miles in the sector between Pozleres and Longueval, but they are still seven miles away from their objective at Bepaume. To add to the spoils already won on this front is now a very difficult undertaking. The Germans have brought up strong reinforcements of men and munitions and In the past ten days it has proved Increasingly difficult for the Allies to win further advances, even when using very large forces In the attack. CANNOT DOUBLE GAINS.

Therefore It is apparent that we cannot expect between now and October to see the gains of July and the first half of August doubled. The British line promises to advance further on the road toward Bapaume and we may expect them to capture Martlnpulch and perhaps Thiepval and Courcelette, although hard fighting will be required to wrest these strong positions from their defenders. The French are likely to take Combles and Clery and complete the conquest of Maurepas. Peronne is unlikely to fall In the near future. When the autumn storms set in the season for great attacks In the open country will have passed.

Whatever Is to be done this year in way of defeating the Germans in France must be done within the next two or three months. An offensive which ends short of inflicting a crushing defeat must defer its ultimate end until another summer. The battle of the Somme Is a very much more important effort than the allied drive of last September and the allied armies employed in this undertaking are much stronger. They have maintained their effort much better and promise to continue to fight hard on this front for some weeks yet. LITTLE TO BE GAINED.

Nevertheless, this greater attack will gradually die down as that did. The ground regained will be much greater and the casualty lists will been tried and they show splendid capacity for hard fighting. The British guns and ammunition have been supplied with absolute prodigality. Most remarkable of all the French once more have found strong divisions of brave men as full of enthusiasm for battle as though there had been no rivers of French blood drenching the soli these two years past. DOOMED TO BE BRILLIANT.

Yet with all this combination the battle of the Somme it doomed to be brilliant but not decisive. It would, however, be most unfair to limit the effects of the battle of the Somme to Plcardy. The indirect effects of this battle will probably be revealed to future his. torlans as having been of very great value. It must be recalled that last spring the prospects of the allies were decidedly gloomy.

The great -German siege of Verdun had progressed despite the marvelous pro-elstance of the French, and when Thlaumont, Fleury and Chapel Saint Fine were lost, it was apparent that the days of resistance on the east bank of the Meuse were numbered unless some important diversion could be developed else-where. Then the great surprise of the war happened. In far off Gallcia Brusiloff drove a smashing at-tack through Bukowlna that shook Austria to the roots and saved northern Italy. RUSH TO THE RESCUE. The Austrian lines crumbled so dangerously that Germany had to rush to the rescue -generals and army corps.

Reserve divisions needed In the rear of the western battle front had to be hurried off to Volhynla and Galicla. Then the allied councils had a trump card all ready to pll' and tney Played It Just right. The probabilities are that when the battle of the Somme exhauts Itself 'some time in the autumn we shall find on the western front the German lines still intact from the British Channel to the Swiss frontier. Along the Somme 75 to 100 square miles of French soil will have been redeemed. At Verdun the Germans with reduced numbers may have been unable to close in any nearer to the Meuse.

In Russia the vast territories from Riga to the Pripet marshes are likely to pass another winter under German control. As to Austria, If enough Turks and Germans are brought up the Russians will probably be held at the Carpathians, and Bukowlna seems destined to house Russian troops. Instead of Austrians next winter. Bibles to Cost More; Big War Is Blamed BOSTON. August 26.

The American Bible Society announced to-day that the price of Bibles was likely to be advanced at once. The European war, which has increased the cost of paper and other raw material, was given as the cause. The stock of Bibles and books printed in foreign language, previously purchased from Germany, is being rapidly exhausted, it was said. BRUGES Klbtcoure Soisson0 PARIS be far longer, but the battle of the Somme will not have accomplished very much more In the way of decisive results than did the drives of last autumn. There is little in the present situation to Indicate that the Germans will lose Bapaume and Peronne this year.

But even should that happen we would find that the loss of these larger towns would by no means compel a general retreat of the German armies in Northern France or Belgium. Twenty miles beyond Bupaume lies Cambrai and seventeen miles beyond Peronne Is St. juentin; these cities, with Lille further to the north, are the great centers of communication which some day in the future must be takeu. When they are taken the Invaders in Franco will begin to think seriously of retreat. The new Kitchener armies have ODOfMUDF French CyoV A South 1 pn.

En-thuslastlc over the hearty response for the western women voters to the appeal of the National Woman's Par-ty, and having started all it Political machinery at the women's recent Colorado Springs conference and during a trip through the West, Miss Alice Paul, national chairman of the Congressional Union for Woman Suffrage, has returned to Washington. While other parties were unprepared, in many cases still waiting for the results of the primaries and looking about for organizers, the Woman's Party has rone so far ahead that it has called forth the admiration of leaders in the various other parties, said Miss Paul.

Miss Paul spoke of what has been done in Colorado, Wyoming, Arizona, Washington and California, where congresrlon'al districts or counties, in many cases every precinct, have been finished, with chairmen and other officers named and committees appointed to carry on a vlrorous campaign which will reach every voter. It is planned to have all this completed by Sept. 15, when campaigning will begin In earnest and all the stump speakers for the Woman's Tarty started out. All the other machinery has been provided, with Miss Anne Martin, Chairman Woman's Party -National Committee, at the Chicago headquarters now In charge of the general campaign. A speaker's bureau has been established and will be directed from Chicago.

Other important features of the campaign machine Include the campaign text book, the publicity department and the supply department. The workers in California Include: Miss Doris Stevens, Omaha, Mrs. Clara Snell Wolfe, Austin, Teras; Miss Hazel Hunklns, Billings, Montana; Mrs. Sara Bard Field (speaker), San Francisco; and Mrs. Ida Finney Mackrille (speaker), Sacramento.

Those In Oregon are: Miss Vivian Pierce, San Diego. and Miss Mary Gertrude Fendall, Baltimore, Md. Prisoners Eager to Take Up Education Popularity of the extension work of the University of California within Folsom State prison has Increased until at the present time 195 prisoners are enrolled In the classes. There were twenty-five enrollments when the work started two and one-half years ago. Almost 70 per cent of the men sent to the prison since the instruction was begun have taken the work.

There also has been Increased demand for books from the prison library. The men read an average of 400 volumes a week. U. C. to Turn Out Mining Prospectors The University of California inaugurated this semester for its fledgling mining engineers a course In prospecting and exploring.

Professor Frank Probert, for twenty years In charg of mining work in Wales, Germany, Spain, the United Statifs. Canada and Mexico, has charge of the work of turning out scientific prospectors. In the university laboratory the student prospector will learn to pan and Into the campus hills he will dig and timber, drill and blast and survey. 'Prehistoric People9 Lecture Topic To-Day "Prehistoric Callfornlans" is the subject of the lecture to be given at the Affiliated Colleges at 3 o'clock this afternoon by Associate Curator E. W.

Gifford. There were three principal centers of settlement in California before the Mission Fathers came, one around San Francisco bay, another around Humboldt bay and the third In the vicinity of Santa Barbara. The lecture will be illustrated by the stereoptlcon. I worked up to mutual passionate admiration. We are almost tempted to establish a law of periodicity In the fluctuations of feelings between the two nations.

The cycle of currents from high to low tide of affection seems to be regularly complete every three lusters. The change produces itself much quicker between France and Russia. When Napoleon's Grand Army Invaded tho empire of Alexander, contempt and hatred of the Muscovite, "overcrept with vermin, eater of tallow candles," reached their summit on the banks of the Retne. Nevertheless, when after Leipzig, and a second time after Waterloo, the Cossacks camped In the Champs Elysees, they became rapidly the pets of the Parisians, whose feminine part had for them the most bewitching smiles. DRINK WITH ANCIENT FOE.

More astounding still was the transformation alter the Crimean war. Scarcely had the thunder of the runs of Sebastopol been silenced, when the hands of the besieged and the besieger clasped each other and the adversaries of the day before drank their mutual healths on the very battlefield. What their relations are since the visits of Admiral Aube at Cron-stadt, of Admiral Avellane at Toulon, and -of the Czar Nicholas II In Paris and Complegne, and particularly since the outbreak of the present war, need not be enlarged upon. Remember the indignation which the Alabama affair raised in the United States during the Civil War. Minds were Inflamed to such a point that there was a general desire for rushing Into war and for turning atralnst England the forces that had become utilizable by Lee's surrender.

It was probably only Gladstone's wisely conciliatory attitude which at that critical moment Impeded the clash. And now reigns again the conviction that "blood is thicker than water," and England has no warmer friend in the world than the American people, So these precedents seem very encouraging, and we might be Inclined to refuse being too much alarmed by the present state of mind of the European nations, and to consider it as transitory. This was my opinion at the outset of the war. I confess I do not hold it any longer. I have now the melancholy conviction that the enmity between the belligerents or at least some of them will largely survive the war.

The hatred has eaten itself too deep into the souls, it has too completely soaked the whole thinking and feeling ever to be extirpated. I do not overlook that this was generally believed after 1866 and 1870 also, and that nevertheless people happily were mistaken. The conflict between Prussia and Austria, with her southern German allies, was a brother war, and these are, according to experience, the most embittered and implacable. The fact Is that after the campaign the Prussian was perhaps more execrated in Bavaria than ho is now In France, and aa to Austria it only breathed revenge and retaliation for Sadowa, and plotted with Napoleon III an alliance against the conqueror. This did not hinder that only four years later the Bavarians, under Von der Thann, fought in loyal fraternity of arms at the side of the Prussians, and that Austria-Hungary, in 1879, entered Into a c(nmitmcnt with Germany which stands the trial of the prcsent war.

That the Bavarians, however, had not yet forgotten their rancor In 1870 is proved by a pleasant anecdote. Their army was placed under tlje superior command of the Crown Prince. After a victorious battle, in which they had behaved with particular gallantry, the prince, who was to become the Emperor Frederick III, according to his 'genial wont, stepped in their midst and expressed to them his admiration and his gratitude. "Yes," then naively answered a private, "if Your Highness had led us in 1866 how we should have thrashed those darned Prussians!" (To Be Concluded Next Sunday.) Almyfn Parlor No. 1S9.

BY MAX Part I have always questioned the ex lstence of wholesale love and hatred the object of which is not an individual, but a collectivity, a people. The people is a concept, an abstraction: the real, the concrete, Is the Individual only. The concpt Is a mental creation, the concrete is a sense-perception. Concepts are worked out by conscious reason, while the contents of tho subconscious are immediate impressions of the senses. All emotions have their roots In the subconscious.

Reason may represent and suggest to Itself states of feeling, but it is not the real feeling, creative of action. Therefore love and hatred, if they are not merely to be represented and imagined, but to be really must originate In the subsconscious, and as this receives Impressions, from perceptions only, not from representations, and as an immediate impression can be produced only by an individual, not by the concept "people," it follows from these founda-mental laws of psychology that nobody can love or hate a person he does not know and has never seen, consequently no people can nourish sentiments of this kind for another people. PROOF OF THEORY. To have the proof of this statement it la sufficient to look around in the world of realities. Am long as people squat together In their clubs and chat about foreign nations, so long as authors and journalists sit in front of their white pages and cover them with loose talk about the same topic, each of them is cocksure of his point of view.

This people is sympathetic, that other is repulsive; this is noble, that is mean; we are enthusiastic about this, we despise and detest that But as soon as these same people come in touch with a live member of one of the nations of which they have such ready Judgments their preconceived opinion yields with scarcely any resistance to the Immediate impression. They love and hate the Individual no longer because he belongs to this or that nation, but only on his own merits. They become cognizant of the fact that in this people, reputed as supremely clever, there are fools and blockheads to be met with; that In that other, pretendedly selfish and materialistic, there are to be found high-soaring Idealists, heroes of charity, martyrs of self-sacrifice; that, in a third, enjoying the fame of proud chivalrousness, cheats and cads turn up in numbers. It may happen that a man out of prejudice refuses to make the acquaintance of a son of a certain nation; in this case, of course, that prejudice cannot be rectified. But whenever we have the intellectual probity toward ourselves to measure and control a conventional opinion by reality it does not maintain Itself; and, In spite of all we might have read, heard, repeated In good faith and persuaded ourselves to believe, It is man that impresses men.

History Is my authority for denying permanent national sympathies and aversions. I will not go back farther than to the beginning of the last century. How the English and French hated each other under the Pitt administration and during the first years of the reign of Napoleon! But scarcely was the peace of Amiens concluded when a real migration of peoples set in between England and Paris, and the greatest cordiality prevailed between the French hosts and their Entrlish visitors. ENEMIES BECOME FRIENDS. After Waterloo, the table-cloth seemed definitely cut between France and England.

The flames of wrath burnt perhaps lower after some time, but they did not die, and they were violently fanned again by the Pritchard Incident which, under King Louis Philippe, threatened to kindle war between the countries. Yet, half a generation later Frenchmen and Englishmen fought in Crimea shoulder to shoulder against a common enemy, and embraced each other in unreserved fraternization. Gladstone's abstention In the war of 1870 cooled the relations considerably down again, and when under the government of Lord Salisbury the gallant Marchand inarched to Fashoda and confronted poor Kitchener, It looked as lr there should be breaking of necks once more. This, however, prevented neither the alliance of 1914 nor a friendship which has been settlement policy as prevails In Australia and in many European countries. Professor Mead points out that in the United States to-day 35 per of the farms are rented and only 65 per cent are owned, while in Denmark, only 11 per cent are rented and 89 per cent are owned.

This condition in Denmark has been brought about by th.e. inauguration of a rural credit system by which, since 1889, 80,000 farms have been brought into private ownership. "Up to 1914," says Professor Mead, "Australia had advanced $60,000,000 in farm loans to promote land settle, ment, and so sound was the financial basis that the year saw a total default of only $478 in payments due from 'settlers." Pickers Harvesting Sonoma County Hops SANTA ROSA, August 26. Hop picking has commenced in some of the Sonoma county yards and in Mendocino county the harvesting of the blossoms Is in full blast. The blossoms are of fine quality this year and the crop is about an average.

The market is very quiet. Very few contracts have been made for the new crop. The latter part of next week the harvest will be on in earnest in Sonoma county. Kansas Crude Oil Is Cut to 90 Cents INDEPENDENCE August 26.

Question Put Forth by Expert Whether the Institution Would Be of Great Benefit good tin any other debt that may contract Therefore, the bankers will not hesitate to loan on chattel mortgages or other good security, or even without security In the case of men of known financial lntesrrtty. As a rule, these bank loans will not be large and to the average farmer they will run only from a few hundred to a few thousand dollars. But they will be sufficient to carry on a farming- Industry In better financial shape than formerly and particularly In the matter tiding over droughts and seasons of poor crops. AID TO SOUTHLAND. Southern California will be greatly assisted by the new land bank.

No place needs Its fostering financial care more than the Imperial valley, where the effect of the new law already has been fflt, though It Is not yet In operation. Farm loans up to a short time In that section were made at 10 per cent Interest, but this percentage has been scaled down to 7. While the bankers of this State nre cheerful about the outlook, the farm loan Institutions take a pessimistic view and predict failure for the new system. It Is too bad that they cannot keep on getting high rates of Interest from farmers by lending them Eastern Insurance money and other funds. It Is too bad that Cincinnati, for example, which has found It so profitable to finance California farmers at 10 per cent interest, will no longer be able to reap a greater financial reward from our noil than Its tillers have been doing, indeed, it would be too bad If the farm loan men had to go out of business that is to say, too bad for them.

But the day of 10 per cent has gone. Hereafter the California rancher will pay only about half that interest and he will not be lying awoke nights worrying about the suddenness with which it Is going to come due. Forty years to ray off a debt in! That should be time enough. The Federal loan board has big work before it. The location of those twelve banks alone is going to be quite a job, with the whole coun- -puning aim Hauling to win a hank for this or that favorite center.

Myrtck, who is credited witli being father of rural credits in this country, is having a great deal to say by way of suggestion to the members of the board. Some of his suggestions have been very good. One of them is very bad. Myrick says that the Pacific States of Idaho, Washington, Oregon, Nevada, Utah, California and Arizona should be given just one bank among them. He has divided up the whole country into farm loan districts, and this is the best he can do for the Pacific Coast.

Well, he will have another division coming to him, for if there are not two loan banks in all that territory there is going to be trouble. It is obvious that if there is to be but one in those six States that Sacramento will have to root pretty hard to secure that tary bank. BOARD INCOMPETENT. After looking over about a hundred newspaper clippings giving editorial views upon the personnel of the farm loan board, I have come to the conclusion that the board members are a most incompetent lot of men, also that they are the best that could possibly have" been chosen, also that they will do very well for a hasty, makeshift selection. But among all the diverse and disagreeing views shines out the fact that Herbert Quick, being a first class literary mm, will be able to write a fine scholarly report to the Presi-dent at the end of the first year the board is in office.

None of the editors seems to have anything particularly harsh to say by way of criticism of the selection of W. S. A. Smith of Iowa to the board. Why should they? Mr Smith is an expert farmer and one of the best known men in that lino in the Middle West.

So remarkable is his grasp of the economic and financial sides of farming that he was made expert of farm practice by th-J Department of Agriculture two years ago, and In that capacity he has been studying farm problems and solving them, too, in all parts of the country, from the rundown estates of Virginia to the blueberry farms of Maine. He has been actively interested In farm loans as an officer of the Livestock National Bank of Sioux City. George W. Norrls was chosen because he was a financial expert. His chief function will probably be to sell the land bonds.

Charles E. Lodell of Kansas Is a banker and a farmer and has been a very warm and intelligent advocate of the bill. And Quick? Well, Quick, as his name indicates, Is not a dead calm when It comes to Ideas about farming. He has been editor of "Farm and Fireside" years and therefore knows a silo fro ma tractor. And look out for those reports! They are going to be real literature If Quick has the writing of them.
