TIIE SUNDAY OREGOXIAX, PORTLAND, OCTOBER 37, 1J18. - TWENTY-ONE REPORTERS AND COPY EDITORS WEAR KHAKI (Continued from Par 2 ) are either absent or in the uniform of mate lot s. "We made an Inspection of the town near our camp last niht and it cer tainly was worth the effort. There is a ijc cattle on the hil! that was built early in the 13th century, and a lit tle cathedral near It, which, according to a Frenchman I braced for Informa tion, dtites from about the came epoch. One tower of the castle is falling- to ruin. It looks as if It had been de molished by artillery fire at the time when artillery fire meant rocks thrown by a sprinK-board. My Frenchman was pleased when 1 remarked that It was old when America was nothing; but forest. The fire of us who were doinjy the touring stepped into tse cathedraL " Portland on July 13, 1917. That wai 15 months ago. "Quite a long time to be atationed in one training camp. I'd say. But really and truly, everything Is fine and dandy here, and I certainly have had some wonderful experiences l'v had that hoodoo number following sis ever since my Army career started, on June 3, 1917. Jt was notified to go to Camp Lewis on Friday. June 13. 1917, and left two days later. Everything went along great until January 13. 1918, when I was thrown into tne Dase nos Dltal with scarlet fever and I was quarantined for six weeks. After get ting out I went back to my company and on May 13 I was told to report to the Fourth Officers' Infantry Training School, which I did. It's a great life if you don't lead it. "But after taking a special course there I was 'inaptituded' early In August. It was not until August 13 that I received another "IS" thrill. I was informed that I had been trans ferred to the 13th Sanitary Train of the 13th Division, and put in the 409th Motor Ambulance Company (add the numerals). When I was In school I was the corporal of the 13th squad. "Then I went to Portland and It was the 13th trip I had made since getting In camp. My luck remained right along with me and I took a ser geant's examination. It lasted three days and had ten subjects. That was enough and I had to take eight more written affairs and now hooray, I'm a sergeant. My warrant was dated October 15. exactly 15 months to a day since donning the olive drab. p. s. I think that if I remain in I Camp Lewis it will be the best chance I for me to get 'over first, tover noma hen the war is over.)" Leo "Tick" Malarkey Active in Post Athletics.

Night fell while we were "wandering about the town looking into the picturesque shops and courtyards and. as we were making our way back toward the river along a crooked, dingy street that looked as if it had been nicked whole out of an old French novel, a centuries-old bell somewhere sounded the French equivalent of curfew."

A few paragraphs from letters writ ten to his mother are given here. "Tonight we are billeted in a little village. Everything is quiet except for the prattle of the children at their games in the streets. The band which stays with us when we are not in a danger zone has gone to another town for the evening. "So far we have been in every big drive and I hope we can keep right on doing the same old thing, for that pleases me next to going home. Have had no news from home now for a month and the worst part of it is that they do not know when we can expect letters. Just now w;e are n a very 'tranquil' sector, as the Frenchmen say. Perhaps here we shall have a chance to rest up bit. "The day Is beautiful and the sun Is shining through the shell-torn trees of the little wood in which I am sitting. There is no discordant note of battle to interrupt the quiet harmony of the day. Another letter is as follows: "It is beginning to be cold here, and drizzling rain has Just set in. Our rubber boots and raincoats should keep us in pretty fair condition, and of course we do not want for anything. "The Government is issuing us to bacco and soap. It will take a mighty good man to get through this war without acquiring the habit of smok- ng. It seems that all a fellow wants to do is to smoke, especially when he is in trouble of any kind." If . or four boys, all of them trying to work out an intricate map puzzle fur nished by the Red Cross. When I said to him that probably he would be sent home because almost all of the men who received bone wounds are sent home, he said: 'No, I am going back in the line.' and to prove that he was almost well he showed me his side wound and showed me how he could wiggle his toes on his left foot. Spirit Is Unconquerable. "The more I see of the boys and their unconquerable spirit the more amazed I .am. There Is no. bragging spirit In their attitude, but merely that of hav ing undertaken a piece of work which they are determined to finish with a fine sporting spirit. If I were German I think I should be more' Tearful of the absolutely nonchalant unconcern of the allied soldiers than of any vin dictive foe who can be imagined. "The confident allied soldiers do not know when they are beaten. I sneak of the allies because the spirit of the Americans nas its counterpart in a slightly different form In the French and English. The French impress me as being pluggingly patient, and the Brltton as doggedly determined.

Foch Master of Situation; Writes Young Soldier. Corporal W. C. Bolton Says Amer icans Brighten French Faces. MEP.ICAN soldiers are brightening "Y French faces, writes Corporal W. C. Bolton, overseas with Company F, of the ISth Engineers. Corporal Bolton writes his mother, Mrs. W. B. Bolton, of Beaverton: "Scarcely a family in France but wears crepe. When we first came here we found a look of patient resignation upon the faces of all the people and the question always ready, 'When will you be able to help us at the front?" Now they brighten up with the more certain aproaeh of victory and their question is, 'Vt hen will be war be over?' That is heard several times each Sunday when talking to the various people. xoung and old, rich and poor alike. all ask the same question eventually. "Our people at home will never know what It is, in this war, to leave their homes, say in Portland, on account of a 'Big Bertha' or the 'Gothas.' We will never feel the longing of hundreds of thousands of refugees to return to their homes in the north, most of which have been destroyed utterly and entirely. And lastly our people will never know of the great relief of the French when their beloved city, Paris, was saved again this Spring by their armies, as sisted by the Americans, at Chateau Thierry. "They love Paris as no other nation in the world loves a city, and during the Hun drive toward Paris the feeling of the people was that some miracle would happen to save the city. And it was the miracle of having intrusted the entire control of all armies into the hands of one man, probably the greatest General in the entire history of the world, one who was able to solve the plans of the greatest war machines the world has known and to anticipate their movements after al lowing them to suffer an enormous loss of power by drivfng useless wedges into difficult territory. Now that the danger to Paris is removed forever we can see that this man knew his strength and power and was confident of the ultimate result." Man Minus Toe; Sues. LATROBE, Pa.

Manion Has Been Over Top Twice. Portland Roy Was In Big Drive of July IK and la. HAROLD S. MANLON, the son of Dr. Florence Manion, of this city, has been "over the top" two times. He is with the 78th Company of the Sixtii Regiment of Marines, who participate in the big drive of July 18 ana 1. Previous to going over-seas, Manion, who enlisted in January, was training at Mare Island, sailing over-seas in May. "I took part In the big drive of July 18 and 19," he writes. "I was over the top two times. In the last attack our company was nearly wiped out, and how- I ever came through with out injury is a mystery to me. Nearly all of the old Mare Island bunch have either been bumped off or are in the hospital with wounds." Manion has been confined In the hos pital with a severe attack of influenza, but at the time he wrote his letter ex pected to be back in action Boon. When he was being transported from the front to the hospital he stopped at a receiving station where there were a number of Oregon nurses and doctors.

Coast Artillery Man Spends Day at Fort Stevens. 3Iaarlee II. Hyde Begins Day at 5:40 A. M. Now That He's In Army. AURICH H. HYDE is with the Coast Artillery at Fort Stevens, Oregon, where he is a member of the band. He enlisted about August 1. Previous to his enlistment he was em ployed as a copy editor for The Ore gonian. At last I am in uniform after many trials and tribulations," he writes. "Our days are pretty busy and I don't get much time off, although I do manage to get home for an hour or two during the day. My day begins at 6:40 A. M. when 1 get up to choke off the Big Ben. Reveille is at 6:15. calisthenics at 8, band rehearsal at 3:30 to 10:30, some times drill at 10:45 to 11:45; dinner 12, band practice again at 2:45, parade and retreat at 5:15, guardmount twice SAMPLE ballots for the state and county election have been printed and are now available to the pub lic The ballot is of good size, but not as long as some ballots have been. There are comparatively few con tests in the election, and for the most part the ballot will be found uninter esting. For instance, the result of the election for Justice of the Supreme Court, between the Socialist and the Republican candidates is a foregone conclusion. The same is true regarding Attorney-General, Superintendent ot Public Instruction and Labor Commis sioner or, as the title reads,, Commis sioner of the Bureau of Labor Statis tics and Inspector of Factories and Workshops. Nor is there any question of the result for Commissioner of Pubr lie Service, nor Superintendent of Wa ter Division No. 1. And without violat ing any confidence, it can be stated now that Frederick W. Mulkey, Repub lican, will be elected United States Senator, to fill the term expiring March 3. Mr. Mulkey'B opponent is Martha Bean, a Socialist of Malheur. Among the county offices there is also about the same lack of excite ment, not one Republican candidate for the county offices, with the exception of J. W. Beveridge for County Clerk, having an opponent making a campaign. Two blank spaces are on the ballot where voters can write in the names of candidates for Supreme Court Jus tice and for State Senator, these vacan cies occurring after the time for can didates to file. Down at the bottom of the ballot are nine measures submitted for the approval or rejection of the public. On the whole the ballot can be voted by the average person in less than a minute.

Certificate of Necessity for Incrense In Stnte Tsx Levy for 1919 (Issued under authority of Chapter 150, Laws of 1917) State of Oregon, Count of Ma rion, ss. We, the undersigned, constituting the State Tax Commission of Oregon, hereby certify that in our opinion it Is necessary to levy an amount of state taxes for the fiscal year 1919 larger by 5940,000.00 than the amount limited by the Consti tution of Oregon, unless specifically authorized by vote of the people. From careful investigation we believe that the proposed specific increase of the state levy of taxes for 1919 is necessary that defi ciency debts incurred for maintenance of state in stitutions and departments may be paid, that in creased cost of necessary labor and supplies during the ensuing biennium may be anticipated, that un avoidable obligations in war emergencies may bo met and that the credit of the state may be pre served. The amount specified is estimated as equiv alent to an average levy of one mill on the dollar of the total assessed valuation of the state for the current year.

Commissioners of thA Prtet of Portland, certit'v fhjlt in our nnininn it is necessary to levy taxes for the district of ths Port of Portland for the fiscal year of 1819 larger by $250,000.00 than the amount limited by the Con stitution of the state of Oregon, unless specially authorized by vote of the people.
