GERMANY SEEMS OPTIMISTIC In possession of the city of War saw, and with the Russians In sullen but continued retreat, German ofll clula In the city of Herlln believe the great European war will come to an end before the closing of the winter. They believe that Germany's enemies hnvo about reached the. end of tliolr Hrlng, and in spite of their talk of continuing the war, they have about arrived at the point where they will bo glad to mako peace. The Rocky Mountain Times says: "That Kussla has Buffered a blow that will nullify her offensive power for a long time to come. Thut England and France realize their inability to push the Germans out of Franco and Belgium, as evi denced by their Inactivity while Ger many was concentrating against the HusHlans. "That the Dardanelles can never be forced. "That the Balkan situation la sat isfactory. Inasmuch as Bulgaria, ac cording to the best avulluhlo Infor mation, has given assurance that she will remain neutral until tho end of the war. "German optimism Bcenis based wholly on the continued eastern suc cesses and there is a general feeling that things are coming Germany's way since the fall of Wursuw and the continued retirement of the Russians, who have been able to command no assistance from England or France, but who have compelled to fight Germany and Austria unaided." It Is a significant fact, however, thut Russia has spurned tho peace overtures alleged to have been made by Germuny, and that fact would In dicate that the reverses met by the Russians in Poland, have not damp ened their war spirit. With the com ing of winter, which Is now near at hand, conditions will be more to the Russian liking, and it will be remem bered that all of the Russian ad vances were made during the winter season. Russlun war resources have as yet been but sightly utilized. There are said to be millions of men who can yet be called to arms, and with Eng land, France and Italy all looking for an opportunity to strike at the most vulnerable point In the German defenses, the situation may be re versed almost any day.

Furniture., E. A. ROSS Undertaking Figures just compiled by the For est Service covering Its work In Washington and Oregon for the fis cal year ending June 30, 1915, show, among other things, chat the Service has built DO miles or road, 462 miles of trail, and C25 miles of telephone lino, besides erecting 12 bridges and 30 lookout stations. The detailed figures give the Ore gon forests 85 miles of road, 200 miles of trail, 4 65 miles of telephone wire, flvo bridges and 27 lookouts; whllo to the Washington forests have beon added five miles of road, 169 miles of trail, 170 miles of telephone, seven bridges and three lookouts The bridges represent only struct ures costing over $100. Small bridges over culverts and the like are ranked as part of the road. For ad mlntstratlve purposes the Service has also built In Oregon 24 cabins, eight barns, 20 miles of pasture fence, and developed 10 springs; and in Washington it has erected 12 can- ins and one burn, built 10 miles of nasture fence, and developed nine springs. The rangers have done large part of tho labor necessary tn making these Improvements. It Ib the policy of the Service to dovelop communication as rapidly as funds will permit, not only because roads and trails and telephones moan better protection for the forest wealth which the government Is guarding, but because these means of communication also make the Nation al forests more accessible to the gen oral public. To date In Washington and Oregon, over 4000 miles each of trail and telephone have been built, and 101 bridges and 56 lookouts have been erected. Of the bridges, seven are of suspension type.
