HOTELS PLANNED IN FRANCE BY
 AMERICANS

PARIS, Oct 30. - The reawakened enterprise of French hotelmen is be- ing applied to the preparation of pro per accommodations for the Ameri- cans they expect to see over here as soon as the continenal touring is again possible,
 American built hotels in portable sections will be ready to shelter tour ists on the battlefield of the Marne as soon as the war zone is opened to gen eral circulation. They are to be erect ed by a group of French and neutral hotel men.
 A Grenoble hotel man is already ne gotiating for site in Verdun on which to build new hotel as soon as Ger man shells get through demolishing the old ones. A committee of busi- ness men in Meaux is pushing along different projects for the benefit of the battlefield tourists.
 Sign posts giving distances between intersecting points and the itinerary tourists should follow will soon be erected on all the fields of the seven days fighting in that region. Com memorative plates will be put up wherever acts of heroism were accom- plished, and an illustrated guide book with maps of the battle of the Marne provided for visitors, while informa- ton bureaus will be organized in each commune to facilitate visits to inter. esting places.

 With due respect to Mir. Gnmore's opinion, it is the prevailing belief here among disinterested observers that practically all the states he places in the doubtful but possible" list will go to Wilson. Of his probably safe" list 1t is now the opinion of careful observers that Wilson's chances at present are better than those of Mir Hughes in Wisconsin. In Idaho also, it is believed that Wilson has the lead at this time
 Mir Gilmore and eastern observers agree with regard to Ohio and Illinois, and with regard to the further state ment that the presidency will probably he decided in those states It begins to look like the closest presidential contest since the famous Tnden-Hayes contest of 1878.
 MT Gilmore has read with interest the polls made in the state of Wash ington by The Times and the New York Herald, and says that the state will go for Hughes by more than 5o,- O0O He informed the chairman of the Republican national committee this af- ternoon, Mir. Wilcox. that the Wash ington state polls were confined al most exclusively to the downtown dis tricts, where labor predominates. Polls. he pointed out, were made in shops and other places where men are employed and after that in eating houses where many of the same men take their meals.
 No polls have been made by way of counter balance, he told MT Wilcox. of districts of the city. which he says are overwhelmingly Republican. On the returns of 1912, 1914 and the prim- ary election returns of 1916. MT. Gil more told MT. Wilcox, there is a Re publican majority of more than 1O0, 900 to be overcome before Wilson can carry Washington state He went into the situation in detail, after which Mr Wilcox placed Washington in the surely Republican column.

DELEGATE SURE OF BIC VOTE
 EVERYWHERE

NOME, Oct. 2g. - The Arctic Bro therhood hall was packed last night by eight hundred men and women who turned. out to attend the Wickersham rally. It was the largest attended and most enthusiastic meeting held here during the campaign. Senator Dan Sutherland made one of his telling speeches, and his eulogy of Delegate Wlckersham for his indefatigabIe eff. forts al Washington in behalf of the people and in defiance of the fish and other trusts was received with great applause. That Seward peninsula will give Nickersham a big vote there is no doubt. In fact, he will receive prac. tically the same support here as was given him during the Carson campaign in 1908, when he carried the Second division by about four hundred ma jority.

MARRIAGE. LAWS EUROPE MAY BE
 CHANGED

VIENNA, Oct. 30. - Whether or not Europe will be obliged to change its marriage laws as the result of the war is a question which has recently occu- pied sociOlogists in the central states. Most of them are of the opinion that material notifications must ensue: few think that legalized polygamy must be established in order to pro vide for the surplus of women which two years of warfare has made one of the problems of all Europe.
 The total population of the states at war, the non-Arian elements of Rus sia excepted, is roughly 373,OO0, ,O0O, of which, according to best sources, 188,O0O,OOO are women and 185, 900 OO0 men. For the countries of Europe where exact statistics are available, the proportion is 105 males to 1O7 fe- males. For Europe this leaves in nor nal time an excess of three million fe. males, of which number a third would be marriageable.
 To this million of women who at present can find no husband for the reason that nature, while ensuring an excess in the birth Of males. permits more of them to die in infancy. will be added at least eight millions whom death on the battlefield and incapaci. tating wounds has also deprived of mates. Europe therefore, is face to face with the question of how these nine million women are to be cared for.

CH|SANA TRAIL |S IN NEED OF
 REPAIRS

Y. Kawakami, who spent the past three summers in the Shushanna camp. where he has been conducting store, has just returned from there. He came over the trail which is in bad shape, and 1t took him seven days to make the trip to Mccarthy. Kawa- kami says the development Of that district has been greatly retarded for the lack of trails and the mining men there are very anxious to have the Alaska road commission give them some consideration. Freighting costs from twenty to twenty-five cents pound which is prohibitiye As there is both placer and lode copper in that section and the White river country. the future would be most promising providing there were good trails. so that supplies and machinery could be hauled reasonably
 On account Of shortage of water the gold output this year was not up to expectations. James X Nelson found better pay after going down to bedrock. pans running as high as one dollar. and figure that as a hydraulic proposition they will be able to make a good cleanup next season.

In Ohio Mir. Gilmore sees difficulty. It is not in as bad condition as Hi nois; indeed, there has been a de- cided Democratic trend there for sev- eral weeks, due first to the labor vote, and second, to the absence of a good state organization on the Republican side. If Ohio is to be for Hughes, 1t must be on account of work yet to be done. That work Is now under way, MT. Gilmore says. and the preliminary results have been satisfactory.

 SITUATION

NEW YORK, Oct 21. - W. A. Gill more, of Seattle and Nome, came to town on Friday night on the Hughes train, after swing through Indiana Michigan and Ohio with the Hughes party He goes back to Chicago to- morrow forenoon, there to remain un- til October 27, when he will start for Seattle.
 Mir. Gilmore has been working with the western Republican headquarters at Chicago, and has spent a good deal of time in the Middle West, where the presidency will be decided. He was in Indiana a week, where he met Con gressman w E. Humphrey, who is busy campaigning for the Republi, cans. He came east with the Hughes party as the personal representative of the western headquarters to make observations and reports on condi- tions. Being in the personal cOnfi- dence of Frank H. Hitchcock, who is now the directing force of the Hughes campaign in the Middle West, MT, Gilmore is in position to speak with more than usual knowledge and accu- racy.
 He believes Hughes will be elected, and has a table showing PA electoral votes for him, or within twelve of enough to win. He admits at the same time that the contest is not settled, but will depend entirely upon Ohio and IlliI ois. Indiana, he says, will go for Hughes, because of the superb organization the Republicans have in that state. There is nothing like it. he says, in any other state. in either party.
