I'VE foresaw months ago that the
party which registered the largest
percentage OF voters would win the
election for this reason we devoted
our Efforts 10 the registering OF the
vote and as a result our poll books
indicated just such victory as our
party won.
The democratic organization was
weak and IL did not register its vot-
ers. This accounts for our large
plurality. I believe this election in

(night) engineers, who
have played such a conspicuous part
in the war, made it possible for the
Americans to advance east of the
Meuse river today by throwing four
pontoons across the river during the
night
At dawn the German observers
spotted the bridges and the boche
artillery began shelling them.
One was destroyed but the dough-
boys swarmed across the others with
the shells dropping all about them.
AS the Americans reached the
eastern side they deployed in skirm-
ish formation and quickly drove
back the enemy. The Germans were
severely trounced.
Gain Over is Miles.
The Americans on the Meuse river
have advanced over 10 miles since
the beginning Of their offensive last
Friday morning
Throughout today the Yankees
went ahead with increased enthus-
iasm everywhere overcoming enemy
resistance.
(The advance on Tuesday reached
four miles.)
The Yankees drove the retreating
Germans through the Meuse valley
ike sheep. German divisions were
hurriedly thrown into the struggle
in futile effort TO hold up the
Americans.
Our guns now dominate important
German strongholds and vital Ger
man lines of communication.
