French and United St a ton troop launched an attack this morning against Uie Gennan posi tions on both sides of the Ht. Mlliirl salient. BefrliuiUig at early dawn Fnuico- American artillery directed a tcrrlllr barrage on German jioslUoiis. Jn some parts of the ttrinx zone reply or the tiermnn heavy artillery was vig orous, although weak as a whole. There are some indications that the enemy is withdrawing his artillery, although It is not unlikely that the Germans will fight hard before ltelng driven out, since they have endured a startling barrage for over eight i hours. Weather condition are line. I The attack launched tills morning by I United Stales and French troops was of a most daring nature, and so i(r has met with flattering result. The attack on the southern side of Ht. Mi Idol salient was along a front ol la miles, and on the western side along a front of eight miles. As the battle got well under wit) this morning In the 8t, M 11:1 el sa lient entente ntrplunos in gieut num ber took a hand In the flghtln;, add ing intensity to tlia situation and forcing die enemy to keep well under cover to escape machine gun fire and bombs that were hurled at tiiom from low altitudes. There was a fine con centration of Franco-American artil lery lire all of the United States troops Intensely eager for action and lighting magnificently. By nine o' clock in the morning the allies had made good progress quite generally along the line of offensive action tak ing some prisoners. The first wave of United States Infantry met with little resistance, and at eight o'clock the second Infantry wave had moved up and taken possession of several positions in the German flmt Hue of defenses. Isite reports this after noon show that the Germans ore un able to check the Americans nnd French, and already have begun n re treat on both sides of the St Mlhicl salient. METZ PROBABLY OBJECTIVE.

( BY JUDGE HAMILTON An Important decision was hand led down late yeBterday afternoon by Circuit Judge Hamilton, Involving i property locatedi at (Myrtle Creek .and owned by the late Margaret A. Hurst, who passed away In the fall or 1916, leaving a will In which she lert certain real property in Myrtle Creek to her son, W. V. Hurst ror life, and upon his death to go to cer--tain grandchildren of the deceased .After her death, Mr. Hurst filed a .suit claiming that his mother did not own the iproperty, but that he and his partner, C. J. Ilea had deeded It to her to secure a loan and that he was entitled to the property because he claimed he paid the loan In her . life time and that his mother had wrongfully obtained nnd placed a deed on record which should not have been recorded. Judge Hamilton, In his decision yesterday, found that Mrs. Hurst was the owner or the -property in question, and in acenrd- ance therewith dismissed the suit. .Attorneys J. O. Watson and I. B. Riddle' represented the defendant, while Attorney B. L. Eddy looked after the Interests of the defense in 'sustaining the will. LIEUT. IE VAXEY IX CITY. Lieut.

AGED PIONEER PASSES The death of John Bishop, an aged pioneer of Douglas . county, came quite suddenly yesterday afternoon about 2.30. Mr. Bishop had been in ill health for sometime, but hlB death was unexpected so soon. The lire at Mr. Bishop was quite an ln toroHtlng one, ft being a happy Chris tian life until the last. He was born nt Bremenon, Germany In 1835, liv ing In that country until he was eight years of ago, .when ho moved to this country, where he spent the rest ol his life. His parents landed with their little fumlly at Coal Camp, Mo., in 1843, whore Mr. Bishop spent his boyhood dhiys. He was married In 1858, and whon nut 16 years of age entered the services of the United States army, serving as a cavnlryman In the 8th Missouri, company F, dur ing the entire war, roceiving an hon orable discharge. Thirteen children were born to their union, 12 of whom survlvo him. Mr. nnd Mi's. Bishop colebrated their sixtieth wedding anniversary at their home In West Koseburg, April 7, of .this year,, at w,h.lch time there wns also a family reunion. Those who survive Mr. Bishop are his wife, Mrs. John Bishop, or this city nnd 12 children, Mrs. M. E. Leonard, Idaho; tin. S. E. Taylor, Sprlngdale, Wash.; Mrs. D. 13. Thornton, Spokune, Wash.; Mrs. R. L. Wlnniford, Al buny. Ore.; Mrs. A. M. Kendrlck, La fayette, Ore.; Mrs. E. S. Addilson, Loraine, Ore.; F. H. Bishop. Spo kane, Wash.; C. H. Bishop, Walla Walla, Wash.; W. E. and S. K. Bishop, of Pomeroy, Wash.; L. A. Bishop, or Albany, and R. A. Bishop, of Roseburg. The fqineral services will be hold at the home In WeBt Roseburg under the auspices of the O. A. R. with interment follow ing at the Masonic cemetery tomor row. , GET "LICENSE CARDS" TO TRIM THE KAISER At four o'clock this afternoon the number of men between 18 and 46 yearB of age registering in Roseburg at the two regis tration booths, the Armory and tho Perkins (lostofllco building on Cuss Btreet, totaled approxi mately 216, but as tho hour Tor registration does not close un- til 9:01) this evening this number will probably, be al- most doubled, as It Is es- timated that Roseburg, accortl 4 ing to the government's estl- mate, will probably have 700 registrants. Three cities in the county, Yonculla, Drain and Olendale applledl for additional registration cards today, ac- cording to Chief Clerk Raffety, though a third more wore sent to these cities for the present draft than were delivered for the June, 1917, registration. which Is evidence that registrn- tlon In these precincts is going 4 io be. greater than anticipated. Tho government has entlmat- ed that this county would as- semble In the neighhborhood of ?,000 men for the present call, her will be reached before the and It is quite likely this nnm- day's registration closes. The quota for the state Is placed at 84,000 against 63,319 for the draft held June 5,1917. Though there has been no 'particular rush during the day's roglstra- tlnn the registrar and assistants afeach registration booth have been kept quite busy and the work has been carried out in a very satisfactory manner. Many "did bucks" could be seen me- anderlng toward the booths to get their "license card" to do tiuslnesii with the kaiser, and were mighty glad of the oppor- tuntty accorded them by the government. . DELAY OF SOLDIER MAIL EXPLAINED Improper and Incomplete Ad dresses the Cause of Much Confusion. 50,000 MEN NOT SERVED Plans Are Now Complete By The Departiuent for a More Accurate . and Prompt Delivery of ... Soldiers' 'Mall. Captain Frank E. Frazier, U. S. A., assistant director of the American expeditionary forces postal service at Tours, France, has beeii sent to the United States on a mission rela tive to postal affairs, with authority to furnish information heretofore, for military reasons, withheld from the postal officials. The military au thorities found it neceBBary, in or der to secure prompt delivery of sol diers' mail, to provide the military poBlal officers in France with com plete Information as to the location or troops. The military postal oin cors at the central post office in France have now been afforded' ac cess to the card-Index directory of the adjutant general's department, loratcfl In the same building; and on his arrivnl in this country Captain Fra.lor furnished, undor seal of so rcocy, to tho postul ofilcero a direc tory giving the locution of troops In Frnnce and) a record of those on the way, Orders -have be'nn IsHiicd to send mall on every bout destined to ooek nt any port In France organized to reccivo mall, This, und tho adop tion of a Bohoiuo of designation for groups of unattached men sont,from the United States to replacement camps In France, which Is uecom mended by Caiutuln Frazier, will, It Is believed, go a long way -toward expediting the delivery of letters to soldiers. " The mall of more than fifty thous and. o0 our soldiers in France is delayed, nnd perhapB cannot Ue de livered at all. The reason for this is that letters for a greater number than fifty thousand, In thu aggre gate, are Improperly or Inadequately uddrosBed. Complaints covorlng those delays are sufficient to give tho public the Impression thnt the soldiers' mail service Is bad. But besides the Im proper addressing of letters, which Ib woefully common, there are other reasons for delay In the delivery of soldiers' mail which cannot be nvoldr ed by the military postal service any more than It could be when this ser vice was conducted by the postofflce department. These delays affect rolntlvely small proportion of the mall, but the number Is sufficient to give rise to a very general, If unjust, criticism of the postal service. Delays caused by military objec tion to furnishing the civilian poot al officials with information as to the location of troops are now, In a measure, cured by this Information being given the army officers direct ing the mail service. Letters cculd not be promptly delivered without knowledge as to where they wore to be sent. Military officials are also provided now with transportation fa cilities which were not provided by. the army for the civilian service. But at timos there is still delay to tho mall after it reaches port in France. Some of these are absolute ly unavoidable If the safety and wel fare of. our troops are to be given first consideration. Others can be avoided, and steps to that end which were Impossible undor military re stjrlctlons upon civil authorities! have been or are being taken. .- - Onlv In exceptional cases, 'nnd -un dor circumstance's which will be ex plained, does It take more than throe weeks for a -properly addressed lottor to reach a soldier In France who Is attached to an organized unit of the army. Most ' of the mail reaches its destination In less time than that. The great mnss of let ters to end from tho expeditionary forces go and! come on schedule time. Yet, exceptional circumstanco may delay a soldier's mall as much as two or three month, or he may not get It at all. Tn the extreme case where there are several soldiers of the same name it will be because his letters are Improperly ad reused and he has j failed to correct the conditions by I furnishing hlB proper address. There are no delays, or at-most none grent I er than a few days; when the sol j dler is located with the orgnrtlzed forces and the letter Is properly ad dressed. ' - ' In view of the duplication of names In the American expeditionary forces, the absence of any distin guishing designation ror groups of casual or replacement men haB been a source of diriioulty In the delivery of mail. TholiBands of soldiers are being sent to France every .month from this country for - replacement purposes. They come from various cantonmentsPike, Meade, Humph reys, Lewis and elsewher'e and are usually designated simply "Camp Pike August Automatic Replacement Draft," or some Blmilar designation, and ipart of that particular draft may be sent to one replacement camp In France and part to another. Mall now forwarded to these soldiers who have been scattered) among organiza tions at the front "floaters' mall" goes to the central post office at Tours and Its distribution there Ib still further hampered by being mix ed up with the accumulation of mis directed mall. It Is estimated that 300,000 letters a month were delay ed from this cause. This delay in dolivery will not occur under ar rangements which have just been made to have eaoh replacement unit of 250 men or less aS It leaves camp In the United States given a distinc tive .company number whloh it will retain until It reaches a replacement camp in France. Every member of such iinit will then be one of 260 men Instead of one of one and a half million men. The John Jones of the small unit will be easily located. At each replacement . catnip, In France a directory section of the army postofflce has been establish ed, and mall for a replacement Bol dler. will, hereafter follow him to the unit to which he Is sent from that camp', tho clerks in the directory Bec tlon of the post office using the card records of the statistical divis ion of the camp commander. It still rests with the soldier to Immediately notify 'his correspondents as to his correct address, and with the vari ous cantonments in the United States to see that mall adressod to htm ;at the cantonment Is properly endorsed for forwarding to France. ' It Ib equally Important for the soldier to notify his correspondents immediate ly upon his assignment to a definite unit in Franca. , ' 1 ' .Delays In the delivery 'off' mail which: cannot be avoided are liable to occur at any time during a period of great activity nnd secret move ment or troops. Where tne success of a troop movement on the front deDendB upon secrecy mall cannot be sent to members of a mobile force until they are established at tha se lected destination. Whatever delay is involved in this, whether 24 hours or several days, must be accepted as a military necessity. The same Is true when shipments of supplies, mu nitions, fresh meat, etc., are such at to make an extraordinary ' demand upon transportation facilities from the French ports. Such delays, how ever,' are but for a few days at most. When a divisional ipostofflce la moved In connection with a big troops movement great secrecy has to bo ex ercised. No word, even to tho army postal authorities, Is permitted con cerning the secret troop movement until the troope have been locnted permanently enough to permit, the sending of mail. Under these con ditions a weeks' delay in the dolivery of mail is possible. . Every care Ib taken In expediting the mail for wounded men in hospit- tals. The only dblay In the delivery of such mall Is that which Is abso intelv Unavoidable. A wounded man may be sent from one hospital to an other and even to several before reaching a permanent base honpltal, and If detained a day or two nt each of the hosDltals through which he passes In transit his mall will be de layed until he Is at a hospital long nnoueh for It to reach him. If lie should be tout sllihtly wounded, not being at the hospital long enongh to get his mall, and then should be as signed to a new organization, there wpuld be some further delay, our in none of these cases Is the delay great. The hospital authorities are required to notify the central post office as well aB his company com mender immediately on the arrival of the soldier there for treatment, and mall Is sent to him at once. There Is no delay whatever In mail sent home bv or for tho wounded man rt la nnlv that addressed to him thnt may be slightly delayed prior to hlh nnrmanent location. One of the most puzzling things to the public hn been tho frequent oc currence, both as to mall delivered in France and mall received in this coiintrv. of a letter or a later aate being received before one mailed per haps a week or more earner, uno ovnlnnation of this Is that the post master nt the port of embarkation has been assigned by the war depart ment a definite llmitedl space for mall, and when tho amount of mall has exceeded this, the excess has had to be held over until the next steam er. If there were, say, two thousand bags ready, for shipment and the postmaster was notified that only eight hundred bags could be handled the surplus, twelve hundred bags, would have to He over, being Included In the mall accumulating for the next steamer. 8nch an ex- (Continued on page 4.)
