The German commanders thus far lack Information about movements- going on behind tho allied front. In several instances in the last few days the Germans have spread a cur tain fire over vacant ground,- wasting tihells lavishly for lengthy periods, either because of poor range directing by their aviators, or because of nerv ousness on the part of their comman ders, fearing an attack at some unex pected point. French officials declared todny that liny have learned that .the Germans are now systematically trying to ere ato the impression among the neutrals that France Is worn out by 21 months ot1 war. On the contrary, they paid, France is determined to continue bat tering the German line with huge, newly created artillery and other of fensive materials all winter, despite luiii. snow and sleet, maintaining the Initiative, demornli.iiig the enemy and pi eventing the ti asportation of troops to other fronts.

He said that he is confident j tial's favor. that President Wilson will receive enough electoral votes to Insure his victory even if he should lose New York. "Without exception, I found that the audiences 1 addressed etrongly ap proved President Wilson's Mexican policy," said Mr. Bryan. "Of course, there is some special achievement of the administration which makes a pe culiar appeal to each class of 'voters. For example, the federal reserve set is our most attractive achievement, as far. as the biibiness men of the west are concerned. Similarly, the farmers commend the president most heartily because ot the rural credits aci, while the laboring classes have been infected with Wilson enthusiasm because of the stand he took during the railroad strike controversy and his sitccees in bringing about adoption of tho eight hour law.

Attorney Need Not Come Home to Vote Clarence !- Beames, Portland Federal prosecutor, Busy at Ban Francisoo, May Travel Only Into Oregon. Clarence L. Reames, United States attorney, created considerable interest in San Francisco the other day when he said that although a resident of Portland all that was necessary for him to do to vote for president was to cross the state line into Oregon. Mr. Reames is assisting In the pros ecution of important government cases in California and instead of taking time to come all the way back to Port land he may go only toMedford. 4 Under the state constitution a voter In certain instances is not restricted to the election precinct where he may be registered. The constitution says, article H, section 17, "All qualified voters shall vote In the election pre cinct in the county where they reside for county officers, and in any county in the state for state of ficers, or in any county of a congressional district in which such electors may reside for members of congress." Legal opinion agrees that this clause would most certainly be applicable to an election for president, although it will be necessary for the voter to show that he is a registered voter in the state.
