W, Ml Bh,.!rYA (dctbad His Division Was One Of Eight Cited By General Pershing For Service On Line. Victor T. Golden is one of the fortu nate Oregon nica who will have the honor of telling what the American boys did at Chateau Thierry from his own personal observations. He was in the thick of the fight and in a letter to his mother, Mrs. T. S. Golden, 1395 Sag inaw street, Salem, tells of some of hit experiences as follows: "We made quite a drive at Chateau Thierry, 18 kilometers for our division, tho most made by any division. But our hardest fight was at the left of Soissons but we finally got them on tho run. and the French are still running them." (The letter is dated Septem ber - - i'he way us signal corps men work is a detail of about 15 men to every bat talion and wo go with battalion head quarters and move right after the in fantry. Our job is to keep telephone communication from regimental head quarters t0 battalion headquarters. the night we moved in at Soissons it wa8 moonlight and von could sec and hear for quite a distance. We went forward to relieve the French and went single filo up a small valley. We were at headquarters when the boche started to shell tho valley and they sure sent them over. It sure is some feeling when shells are bursting on all sides and you can only lay thero and wonrter if the next one will get you. "I started around hunting for a holo and fell into a small trench and fol lowed it up and finally got into a dug out. ' "Tho next day we made an attack. The tanks went first and then tho in fantry, then battalion headquarters anil then the reserves. We strung wire and moved forward. The Huns were send ing a counter (barrage and shells were bursting 'pretty close and tho machine gun bullets were kicking up dust. "A fellow and myself were splicing on a new retl of wire when a shell went over us and exploded about ten yards behind. All at once I thought tho sky was going to touch the earth. Just then a shell burst 15 feet in front of us' and showered us with rocks and dirt. I do not know how we ever got by with out a scratch, for hrapnel flies in every direction. , "W have been on three different fronts without a rest. W are now back for a rest and jt seems good to got back where the towns are not shot up and" in ruins, fs l.1; ,: "It is funny to see the tanks in ac tion. They go right into tho machine gun nests and wipe them out. They go wolloping along at the rate of five miles an hour and take their time. "Our division was one of the eight cited by General Pershing for services on the line. So you may know we arc doing our part. . "We are getting all the smokes and stuff we want and I am feeling fine. 1 do not think we will have to go to the front for two or three months." . Latest Election Bulletins. St. Louis, Moi Nov. 6. Democratic State Chairman Nealo claimed Into to day that late returns assure the re-olec-. tion of Speaker Clark. Clark's lead was growing as the count progressed. One of the strongest and most con vincing evidences of the popularity of Tanlac throughout America is the large number of letters that are being re ceived daily from well known men and women, telling of the remarkable re sults they have derived from its use. Among the many received in the pp.st few days is one from John Smith, 313 Eighth street, Bichmond, Califor nia, which is especially interesting. Mr. Smith states that he had suffered for Iwenty years, with hie stomach, liver and kidneys, and had reached the point where he wished each breath would be the last. Ho also says that when he began taking Tanlac he weigh ed only one hundred and forty eight pounds, but that he now neighs one hundred and sixty-six making a gaia of eighteen pounds and that he feels like a new man. Following is his let ter in full: 'To whom it may concern: I, tne undersigned, can truthfully say that the wonderful medicine known ae Tan lac has dono more , for me in thirty days time, than any other medicine I have ever taken before in all my life. I have been a sufferer from stomach, liver and kidney troubles for twenty years. I have takon six bottles of Tan lac, and today I feel like a new man. "Before I Btarted using Tanlac it didn't make any difference what I would eat or drink it distressed me so much that I wished tho next breath would be my last. Also when 1 start ed taking this wonderful medicine, I only weighed ono hundred and forty eight pounds. Today I weigh one hun dred and sixty six pounds nave gain ed eighteen pounds already and am still gaining.

Only 36 per cent of the registered voters in Salem exercised their privi lege of casting a ballot yesterday in the city election. This may bo due to the fact that peo ple in general did not feel enough in terest to express an opinion on the all important proposed charter amendment and then to the fact that but one city eontcst loomed up that of elty mar shal. With but one political proposi tion to decide and the prevailing apathy due to the influenza, more than half of those who have registered the past two years, failed to vote. Tho proposed amendment to the city charter for bonding the city moro than $1,000,000 to pay for all paving since 15; was decidedly beaten as tho vote was 2,572 againBt and 1,545 in favor. Ward 1, voting at the Garfield school. was tho only part of tho city favoring the proposed charter and in this ward it carried by a majority of 12. In ward 3, tho contest botween J. S. Austin and B. E. Edwards was close, with Mr. Austin winning by 12 votes. In ward 7, where there waa a contest between Dr. O. V. Scott and H. L. Clark. Mr. Scott won by a majority or jo.

With republi can and democratic headquarters both olaiming the house and Senate,' elec tion figures collected from all over the United Slate by thu United Press this afternoon indicated that the re sult in the senate is in doubt, while the house is apparently republican.- In the senate tho raoe is o close that it may be a tie with Vice Presi dent UHirshull (casting tlft (decidiinj voto. As the count "progresses, the situation is changing almost hourly. Hepoits at 2:30 p. m. indicated that, in tho senate, the democrnts have lout scats in Now Hampshire, Delaware, 11-. linois and Kansas and probably in Montana, with Idaho and Missouri still in doubt. The present senate has 52 democrats Bnd 41 republicans. Assum ing that Montana has electod a repub lican senator, this will give the repub licans 49 members of the new senate and the democrats 47, wih Idabe and Missouri in doubt, Missouri probably democratic. In case both Idaho and Missouri elect democratic senators, the senato will bo a tie. These figures as sumo that tho democrats have won tho senatorial race in Kentucky, although the republicans aro still claiming that state. Tho democrats Into today were claim ing election of Ford in Michigan, but returns Bhowod Newberry still in the lead. At 2:30 p. m. reports indicated that the republicans have approximately 231 votes in the national house and the democrats about 195, with One socialist Merger of Wisconsin, and a number of districts still in doubt.
