WINCHESTER GENEROUS Little Town Ko.hhu1h With lAtre Coiiti-ihutioiig to the ApiieiU of tho IU1 Vntati CiMiuuillei'ti Heading the i-'tuiifmiKii. (lly .1. ;. .MfClintixk.) The H;d Crorfa teams bring In good reports from the canvass lor IuihIb thiiH far, in sumo instuuci-B meeting with much better results tliun unticl paledt but over against lliese good reports they also are compelled to report certain Hellish individuals, who lack tho nuedlul spirit of patri otism, or aie so inhuman that they care not wuat becomes of the soldier and sailor boys, who go out from our homes, litfht for our country in this, her hour of peri), and Douglas county will be compelled to send to Wash ington a liHt of "kIuc kers," and mcst of the names handed in thus far, tre men of wealth, so that thty would be making no sacrifice, oven should Tiiey subscitbe liiindreds of dollars each. This call for funds to the H'td Crof-s war ftiiKt does not come from the men who arc in the held beg'tig for your little contribution, nor from the state hcadquurtcrs at 1'uril ind, neither does it come from national headquni'U'is Jtt Washington, 1). C. but the call c-jipes from lJresideut Wilson, com man dei- in chiui of the army of tlie I nited Slates, so when you refuse to assist in this great fuuse you .ire refusing the president. Hut this is not all, you are delib erately suylng to the mothers oi uose- burg and Dounlus county, "Send your boys, for whom you have suffer ed and Haerilieed. Let them go to the trenches of Trance and fU;ht for me. and tor the security of my property Interests, and for the continuation of American lib'iiy. They may b'e wounded In battle, and lie on the bat tle Holds until death shall come to relieve ihe pain, hut I will not ghe; one cent to help the Ited Cross care for them, for I believe in keeping the money at home." You s.iy there are no such selfish j people in this county. Well, ask tin i captains and lieutenants of the sov-, oral teams, and they can tell you things that will make your 'ulo')d boil. W hat do you think of a man worlo possibly $50.noo offering to the committee, and of a man who hopes the war will continue so that the price of wheat will go slip iugh er, providing t he country does not have to enter the war? Just to snow that the true spirit of American patriotism is not conlin,d to t lie larger cities and towns, tho Ut ile fity of Winchester set an example in liberal giving, by subscribing $'Joh to the lied Crosi war found yestei day. These people not only gave lib erally, but willingly and gladly, and counted It a privilege to be aide t do their part lu the interest of suffering and dying soldier boys, who will tight our buttles for us. We predict that no other locality of a tike population in tho stale oi Oregon will do more than Winchester has, and they are to be commended and congratul.iteil. Lieutenant llurcldield hail promised to hold a rally at Winchester tills ev ening, but on account of his team being obliged to vUil Camas Valley and other outlying districts today and tomorrow, this meeting had lo be cancelled. If every part of Douglas county will respond as Winchester has, Douglas county will be able to report double our a ppiirtionment. SMITH RIVER NEWS.

When it comes to matters mili tary, little Visalia. Cal is not only patriotic but strictly modern. A short time ago the recruiting officers in that, town were informed that a machine gun company was needed in a hurry by the Second California Infantry. A rapid-fire recruiting campaign produced tho men in 24 hours and then a dozen business men of Visa lia, who own Dodge Brothers motor cars, offered to set tho new recruits at tho Presidio at San Francisco in record time. j This was the first attempt at mov- Ing troops long distances by motor; in the San Joaquin Valley and it , was watched with much interest by j military men. The U.I 0-mile run was made in 1 eight and one-half hours, with an average speed of '27 miles an hour, j The first half of the trip was coin- ; plete with a 35-mile average, but rain and slippery roads cut the aver age to 27 before the ferry at Oakland was reached. While the number of men moved in this particular instance was small, the run demonstrated that the num ber of troops it would bo possible to rush to a given point would de pend wholly on the nuiiibur of motor cars available. The only delay reported on the entire t rip was occasioned by five punctures. Tho performance of tho Dodge Brothers cars aroused high praise from the officers who accom panied the recruits on the trip.
