J., Nov. 6. At 10: Gl this morning, Woodrow Wil son cast his ballot, No. 112, at a fire engine house. A battery of cameras was trained on him. Emerging from the booth, Wilson remarked "Who ever arranged the ballot made the Democratic electors smiled. CINCINNATI, Nov. G. At 12 o' clock -sharp President Taft cast his vote in the Third ward. Before the tlous as an omen of victory for the out In practlcnlly full force and pre dictions are freely made that the city's registration of 1262 will he exceeded bv the total vote polled Two years ago the total vote of the city, when Its precincts extended Into the adjoining country districts, was 1311. Indications during this morning's vote were that Roseburg would go Prohibition by a majority of between 100 and 200. The working machine ot the dry forces waB In evidence everywhere and Its systematic and. thorough operation among the voters and at the polling places was an ex pected finale to the vigorous cam paign of the drys of the past three weeks. Men who never before have taken an active Interest In politics are busy on the streets In behalf of the Prohibition cause, while others. In groups of four, are Btalioned at the polls challenging every voter whose qualifications as to residence is not positively known or is In doubt. Everv voter known to ravor r-roniDi- tlon In the city will have registered blB vote before the polls close at 7 o'clock tonight. The wets are not idle by any means, but their work 1b not In or ganized form. Many voters whom they sent to the polls were challenged by the vigilant drys and a number of them had to restrict their ballots to National and Btute candidates and the initiative measures. To the last tne wets are asserting that they will win despite the superior organization agalnBt them, but It appears late this afternoon that the best they can do is to hold a dry majority under tne 100 mark. If the city's total vote rails below the registration It will be chnrgenhle to the confusion attendant nt the nnlln hv the persistent challenging of the drys, whose militant spirit cannot be downed, and the length of time renulred In tho voting uootns on account of the great size of the ballot. The official count ot tne voie will probably not be completed before midniirht Wednesday. This Is based on the estimate that not over 12 ballots can be counted In an nour. in nil of the Roseburg precincts there are alternating sets of judges and clerks, so the count will proceed without Interruption, oeginning im mediately after the close of the polls this evening. OREGON NEEDS RAISERS OK POULTRY AND STOCK. (Portland Journal). In a booklet Issued by the Secre tary of State of Washington, this In formation is given: Imported annually Into the state of Washington, cattle worth $7,000,000; Bheep, $1,000,000; hogs, $G, 000, 000; eggs, $6,000,000; butter, $700,000. To this there should he added Im ports of packing houses of perhaps $10,000,000. The booklet makeB the statement that Washington needs 30,- 000 families to raise poultry and live stock, and the figures of state Im ports show how accurate is the state ment of the state's needs. Similar figures are not at hand for Oregon, but there is not the slightest doubt that the case of the two Btates Is Identical. Oregon Is likewise an Importer of the sume food products. Oregon likewise needs "30,000 fam ilies to raise poultry and livestock," and. It may well be added, to engage in dairying. For some reason the great public conception abroad of what Oregon needs Is families to engage In or charding. Orcharding In Oregon is a splendid business. Hut It Is not all. In fact. It Is not the overshadowing activity. Nor Is It the kind of activity on which Ore gon can make her strongest appeal to settlers. It has been stated, and Is probably true, that the average farmer who changes his location from one section to another takcB with him about $2, 000. It Is absolutely necessary for such a man to get some return the first yenr In order to survive. Gen erally he knowB Utile or nothing about orcharding, with Its spraying, grafting, pruning, tree planting, packing and shipping, all of which Is now reduced to an almost exact science, requiring trained hands and expert Information. Nor is the aver age farmer disposed to undertake to learn all the requirements of a scien tific orchard business, without which he Is not likely to succeed. Hut this average farmer does know how to milch cows, how to raise pigs, how to grow beef cattle, how to plant and harvest small groins and how to raise chickens, and how to plant and cultivate vegetables. He kuow-B this sort of husbandry will yield food for his family, and give him something to sell. , , The Washington plan of advertis ing for 30.000 families to raise "poultry and livestock" is excellent and timely. Mrs. Henry Kaston left this after noon for Portland to join her hus band, now employed In the grocery department ot Olds, Wortman & King's department store. Can You Beat It?

SOFIA, Nov. G. The Bulgarians are in possession of the Turkish town of Dureos. They have cut off the water supply of Constantinople. A big Turkish force between Tehorlu and Tchatulja is surrounded. Tho imperial Turkish hurem and city archives of Constantinople, have been transferred to Brussu, Asia Minor. Tho prospect thut a considerable, portion or the defeuted Turkish army will be able to reform behind the lines of Tchatulja, the last fortifica tions before Constantinople, is not al together excluded, but whether the Turks will be able to niaintuin there any serious resistunce to the Bul garian advance is doubtful. In the struggle with the allies the Turks lust more than half their ar tillery. In fact, the Servians alone claim capture of no less than 300 guns. This will work against uny prolonged stand at Tchatulja. Up to the present hour there is no sign that anything has come of the porte'a appeal to the powers for mediation. EUROPE ALARMED AT PROSPECT OF MASSACRE. BERLIN, Nov. 6. Virtual admis sion by the Sultan of Turkey that his subjects can no longer be controlled Is causing wide alurm throughout Europe. Tho powers are rushing all available warships to the TurklBh capital. Foreign embassies and lega tions at Constantinople are heavily guarded. MoBt of tho city shops are closed and barricaded.

TURKEY WILLING TO OUT; APPEALS TO THE POWERS. LONDON, Nov. 4. The Turkish ambassndor here was directed by the Ottoman government to Inform Great Britain ot Turkey's willingness to receive assistance in bringing about a suspension of hostilities with a view of arriving at a pence settle ment. Tewflk Pasha Immediately upon re ceipt of the communication from Constantinople went to the foreign office and conferred with Sir Edward Grey, the British foreign minister. for two hours. ProHsnls to the Powers. LONDON. Nov. 4. Tho latest pro posals to tho powers made by the French premier Is as follows: 1. Recognition by the powers or political and administrative rhanges tn tho territory occupied by the troops of the allies 2. Retention of tho sultan's sov ereignty nt Constantinople and tho region around tho capital. a. The summoning of a European conference In which tho Balkan na tions shall participate. Tho Bnlkan nations and Greece are persistent In their determination Unit Turkey must arrange dlreelly with them the terms of peace, without the Intervention of the European powers. This attitude is emphasized ill a statement from oflicial sources. which says: "Tlio Turkish proposal of peace I: satlsfaclory in so far as It shows i desire to prevent further bloodshed. As regards foreign Intervention, how ever, there seems no chalice of Hie Balkan stateB listening to any for eign counsels while treating for the arrangement of conditions of peace. These must be settled between the llnlknn states and Turkey direct. "It may at this stage be declared that the whole campaign was pre arranged and has bo far been carried out entirely in accordance with the program. For a considerable I line an officer of the Greek military Hlaff. Colonel Dousmauis, was engaged at Sofia preparing the military details, while the political program was large ly, If not entirely, the work ol' Premier Vanlzelos of Greece. "The union of the Balkan states at this moment Is more close, hearty and Intimate than It has ever been, for It has been welded by blood and common sacrifice. There Is not the least danger than any disagreement as to the division of territory or tin position on the frontier will distort It. It niny he assumed that inasmuch as the details of the campaign wen arranged with the greatest care the same procedure will he followed both at conclusion of hostllllles mid sub sequent political consideration." Those powers thus far consulted havo resKnded to Turkey's appeal for mediation by declaring they could make only proposals for peace and could not approach the Balkan nations with n request for mi armis tice. Some of the governmeiils have pointed out that Turkey's proposal for a cessation of bostililii's - In other words, nn onulstlco would offend the Italkans. Oilier gnveninieiils lake Die position dial II would hi Infringement of International law for the moment. The war must, therefore, coutlnui and the Turkish armies which tlu Porte has at last admitted have heel beaten, must keep on with their un equal struggle against the victorious Invaders. It Is believed that the powers will soon find a formula under which they can offer their good offices. Tin terms of peace themselves ore u mat ter entirely for the ln'IHgci'inls In settle. Bulgaria having again af firmed that no Interference from tin outside will be loleraled. In this kIh has the support of her allies who settled the political m well as the military aspect of the campaign he fore the war waB undertaken. Powem Not In Accord. Negotiations which were taking place among the powers when Tur key sprang the surprise of asking for mediation were not over-successful. The European governmeiils had mil even agreed on tho preliminaries for an offer of mediation. The sugges tion mode by France, to which both Russia nnd England subscribed, met wllh nothing but criticism In Austria, and she, of course, was bucked by Gormniiy and Italy, the other two members of the triple alliance. II Is suggested, however, that Austria mis understood the proposal In regard Io "disinterestedness" which was not. as believed In Austria, directed ngalnsl the Idea of economic arrangements between Austria mid the Balkan league. Still, Austria's attitude has caused much uiiculnes nnd reports that she Is mobilising troops ronlliiiie to circulate all over Kurope. I'he War CoiiIIiiihu.
