German general casualty rates exceed those of other ranks
An analysis of German war losses shows that generals suffered higher casualty proportions than officers and privates, with 2.56 percent killed among generals and varying but significant killed or wounded rates across staff officers and non commissioned ranks. The piece contrasts this with Russian army discipline and cites the Anti Thief Association’s 61 lodges across Missouri, Iowa, and Illinois amid public notices.

How the French Vote Described by a London Times Correspondent
A Bordéaux correspondent describes French election procedures as simple and orderly. The process uses a plain white ballot with the candidate’s name, handled at the gate by a mayor and officials, with strict secrecy and double-key ballot boxes. Voting occurs openly under public scrutiny, with rapid counting and strong safeguards against falsification, and voters retain the right to object to any improper conduct.
