NATIONAL ISSUE DRAWN Administration's Gage of Battle Ac-I ccpted by Opposition Vote Is Larger Than That Beoently Cast for President. OREGON! AN SEWS BUREAU. Wrt-lug-ton, Sept. 16. The unexpected Re publican victory in the special election recently held in the Third district of Maine and It was an unexpected vic tory all around continues to he a live topic of discussion at Washington, but where Republicans are discussing It publicly. Democrats and Bull Moosers are talking: it over in secret and only among themselves. Try as they do to deny that unusual significance attaches to this election. Democratic leaders have been unable to dispel the Idea that the Maine elec tion does not augur well for Demo cratic prospects and that they them selves are to blame for the unusual significance which has been attached to the unlooked-for result. Ordinarily, the election of a Repub lican member of- Congress in Maine would attract no notice. Until recently Maine hss been a rock-ribbed Repub lican state. Maine went Democratic at the last Presidential election, due to the presence of the third party In the field, and Maine has one Demo cratic Senator and one Democratic House member In Congress today. Natloaal Iwrae Made Plain. The principal reason why the Re publican victory is unusually Impor tant is the extraordinary effort put forth by the Democratic National Ad ministration to take advantage of the presence of the third party in the field and to carry the special election on National, rather than local. Issues. President Wilson wanted to carry that election because he believed that a Democratic victory, even though ac complished over a divided opposition, would be an indication to the country that the Administration and its tariff policy are popular, even in Maine. The fight was made on National Issues. Had not three of the biggest men m the Democratic party participated in this campaign, and had they not made the fight on National issues, no wide spread Interest would have been shown in tho result. But after having sent Bryan. Redfield and Clark Into the fray, under instructions to make a plea, for support of President Wilson and his tariff bill, overlooking almost entirely the Democratic candidate and local Issues, the National Administra tion cannot well explain the result in a way that reflects credit on the party In power or that brings comfort to its members.

There Is no real comfort in that, for In November there were only two Congressional candidates In the Third Maine district a Republican and a Democrat whereas at the recent election there were three candidates, and the combined anti-Democratic vote was 60 per cent greater than the vote rceived by the defeated Democratic candidate.

Witness Before Impeachment Man agers Says He Had Had Experi ence Before Order of Vot ing Is Important. NEW YORK. Sent. 16. Hugh J. Reilly. a contractor and railroad builder for the Cuban government, one or to day's witnesses before the Sulzer board of impeachment managers, said that he lent Governor Sulzer $10,000 In cash shortly after his nomination. Gov ernor Sulser. he said, still owed him this money, in addition to other loans, which brought his total Indebtedness to Mr. Reilly up to $26,600. Mr. Reilly was examined In private before the Impeachment managers at' torney and this is what he told the newspaper men he testified. Can Paid In Wife's Presence. Reilly was questioned regarding his oealings with Mr. Sulzer when the lat ter was chairman of the foreign rela tions committee in the House of Repre sentatives In connection with claims Reilly was pressing against the Cuban government. Their relations were re ferred in recent litigation in which Reilly was involved. "Sulzer asked me for a $10,000 loan jUBt after he was nominated, said Reilly. "He came to my house and I paid him the money In cash In the presence of my wife. I did not take any note for It. I had had previous experience with Sulzer s notes. I had lent him money before. He would pay me back in driblets, but when I gave him that $10,000 it brought the total debt to me up to $26,500, dating back that Die Mayor appoint a committee of thri-e Couicilmen and nine men; rep resenting tne manufacturing interests, business interests and labor Interests, to make a draft of a charter.

"I did not want to lend him the $10,000 and told him not to get a swelled head just because he had been nominated, but he promised to pay me back the next February and so I gave It to him. He never paid It and he 6till owes me $26,600." When the court of impeachment meets on Thursday, the question whether the three Judges of the Court of Appeals designated by the Governor to assist in clearing the court calendar Judges Hiscock, Chase and Miller will sit with the elective Judges in de termining the guilt or Innocence of the accused executive must be settled. Order of Voting Important Much importance attaches to the or der of voting by the court of impeach ment as to whether or not the charges against the accused Governor have been sustained. Should the Judges of the Court of Appeals vote first, their verdict, it Is asserted, would have great weight with the members of the Sen ate. This Is another of the questions which the court of impeachment itself will be called on to decide.

Dr. Frederic Lane, where he has been cared for since his collapse in Oakland September 9, to a quieter portion of the city. He was taken to the home of Assistant Secre tary of the Interior Miller, who is a resident here. The Miller home, in North Berkeley, is remote from traffic noises of the business district. reason of the state of Insecurity, it Is presumed, growing out of the revolu tion. In view of this departure on the foreign relations, I entered into cor respondence with certain foreign dip lomats calling attention to the action of their-, respective governments, and upon receiving due explanations, dic tated orders toward the fulfillment of the law In such cases. - "Since the law prohibited warships from remaining for more than a month In territorial waters, the Senate au thorized the said ships to remain, but with the understanding that those re maining should not entail an attack upon the dignity and sovereignty of Mexico. Authority Not Renewed. "Such authorization limited them to a period of six months, dating from April 25 last, and It was not thought advisable to renew this authorization upon Its approaching expiration. Other ships, which made visits of courtesy. and not of vigilance, have been re ceived by the Mexican authorities ac cording to international laws and cus toms. He declared that the government would continue to make efforts toward the pacification of the country within a period relatively short. In this re spect he could Inform Congress that the situation already was dominated by the government in a majority of the states, only Sonora and Durango being at the present totally beyond authority. He called attention to the fact that within the period treated by the mes sage, the most salient accomplishments of the revolutionary movement had been the taking of Zacatecas, which had been recovered later by the lorcea of the government, the taking of Du rango. which still was in the hands of the rebels, and attacks on the port of Guaymaa and the City of Torreon, which were repulsed by the federal troops. The filibuster movement In the northern part of Lower California had quickly been suppressed. Treasury Fund Almost, Spent. Of the treasury funds, amounting at the beginning of the last fiscal year to $27,600,000, $24,900,000, he said, had been expended for the pacification of th. ommtrv. Of the loan of $100,000,000 authorized in May, French bankers took $30,000,000 at 90. Out of this Speyer & Co. had repaid $20,000,000, half of which was a loan to the na tional treasury and half to the mone tarv commission. For the army, 6600 horses and 2300 mules had been bought during the year. The national cart ridge factory, he said, was turning out 260,000 cartridges mommy. Besides a great number or cannon of various descriptions, machine guns, rifles, carbines and ammunition, the government has contracted abroad for 10 aeroDlanes. 11 armored auiomooues and 60 unarmored automobiles and two armed transports.

A new organization, the County Clerks' Association of Oregon, was born at a banquet in the Oregon Hotel last night, attended by more than a score of the County Clerks of the state. John B. Coffey, of Multnomah, father of the idea, or who. at least, first broached it at the banquet, was elect ed president. W. L. Mulvey. of Claca amas. is vice-president, and Max Gehlar. of Marion, secretary. The association will hold its first convention in Portland next year, probably during Rose Festival 'k. In the meantime, an executive com mittee of five, to be appointed later by Mr. Coffey, will draft by-laws for th organization and formulate a pro gramme for the convention. The association is partly for (lie purpose of drafting legislation neces sary to the operation of the office of County Clerk and to provide a united front against freak and useless laws inflicting more duties on the County Clerks.
