WASHINGTON. Dec 7. Presi dent Taft today sent tt congress a rngBgQ dealing with foreign rela tions during the past year. In his message tho president deals at con siderable length with tho Mexican situation, stating that troops were mobilized on tho Mexican border to preserve neutrality only. The presi dent says, in part: Arbitration. Tho year juBt passed marks an important general movement on the part of the powers for broader ar bitration. In tho recognition of the manifold benefits to mankind in the extension of tho policy of the settle ment of International disputes by arbitration rather than by war, and In responso to a widespread demand for an advance In that direction on ! ho part of the pcoplo of the United States and of Great Britain and of France, new arbitration treaties were negotiated last spring with Great Britain and Franco, tho terms of which wore designed, bb expressed In tho preamble of these treaties, to ex tend the scopo and.obllglations of tho policy of arbitration adopted in our pdsont treaties with thoso govern ments. To pavo tho way for this Treaty with' the United States, Great Britain negotiated an Important mod ification iu Its alliance with Japan, and tho French government also ex pedited tho negotiations with signal good will. Tho new treaties have Veen submitted to tho senate and aro awaltlug its ndvloc and consent to fliqlr ratification. AH the essentlnls of thoso important treaties have long boon known, and It Is my earnest nopo that they will receive prompt and favorablo action. t Tho Puii-Aiiierlain Union. Tho Pan-American Union, former ly known as tho Bureau of American Republics, maintained by tho Joint contributions of all tho American na tions, Iiub during tho past year en larged Its practical work as an Inter national organization, and continues to jirnvo its usefulness aa an agency for tho mutual development of com incirco, bettor acquaintance, and oJoBcr Intercourse botween tho United States and her slstor American re publics. . t New Japanese Treaty. ? Tho treaty of commerce and navi gation bbtween tho Uuitod States mid fhiuan, signed In 1804, would by a strict interpretation of Its provisions 'havo terminated on July 17, 1912, Tinnnpu rrAtmrfil trnfitfnu trlHi tlm cither powers, however, terminated In lyii, aim mo jnpauc&o govornmont avnresRed an earnest desire to con duct tho negotiations for a now treaty with tho Uuitod States simultaneous JyTwIth its negotiations vjth tka othor powers,, T,horo word a num ber of Important questions Involved In tho troaty, Including the Jmmlgra- F0IE6IERS600D MONEY PLENTIFUL IN EAST; MONEY, which is scarce in the west on account of de velopment and expansion, is plentiful in tho east. New York money can he had ou call at Xi'om to 4 per cent, bn GO and J)0 days at -t percent, on 6 months at $, percent. These are prevailing rates, though loans as low as 2 per cent are by no means infrequent. Low rates for money indicate dullness. Vow new en terprises in the east aro being financed. .Merchants are buying little. Curtailment is the order of the day. Invest prs are shy. Stock exchange records show comparatively few transactions, and the market sags. The Pacific west, however, is filled with new enter prises. Development and progress aro the order of tho day. Consequently there is great demand for money and interest rates are high. The east is full of people with idle money looking for investment who only need to be put in touch with the west, to find-the investments they are seeking. There are ten opportunities to make money in a new, growing, undeveloped and under populated country like Oregon to one such opportunity in the developed ami over populated eastern states. Scarcely a line of enterprise can bo suggested that does not offer greater inducements for the future on the Pacific than on the Atlantic coast. Not only aro tho natural advantages, such as climate, soil and resources, incomparably superior, not only is life itself infinitely more enjoyable, but opportunities arc a hundred fold greater, These moneyed men of the east, however, are most of them ignorant of tjio west and know little of its possibili ties. The west must.torco itselt upon their attention, must lure the wist to. study and investigation. It is for this purpose that the western governors are touring the country. Their missionary work, however, must be fol lowed up by an individual presentation of opportunities to capital. In this way only, at the present time, can the needed capital be secured to develop resources. Sale of Suncrest orchard this week for a. quarter mil lion dollars to Minneapolis parties is an illustration in point. This particular capitalist wanted to buy an orchard property, lie did not know where. Put the presentation of this property to his attention, followed by a visit, con vinced him that the Rogue river valley had what he was looking for, and he bought. Many another sale can be made in the same way. In other words, find the man who wants to invest. If lie doesn't come, go after him. There are plenty of eastern men looking for what the west litis to offer particularly what this favored section of the west has. - , ' S8H?t Medford men should show that they are alive by going after those who don't happen to drop off Jiere. Orchards, coal, copper and gold mines, cement factories, granite and marble quarries, lumber and paper mills, each of our varied resources will prove attractive to some one whose capital can unlock the door of development. While the farmers are learning the value of irrigation and the necessity of raising produce sufficient to feed the valley, Medford men should be developing other resources and attracting the necessary money to utilize our natural resources. The sale of an orchard means nothing except a change of owners. The opening of a mill or a mine or any indus trial enterprise means something really vital to the lifo and progress of the country. The energy and enterprise used in securing an exchange of owners should be turned into something worth while into development of native resources for the era of speculation has passed away from the Rogue river valley and we are face to face with tho far more important problems of development.
