GERMAN PAPER HAS
ANOTHER NAME
PORTLAND, Sept. 19. Tho Ore
gon Deutsche Zeitung, German lan
guage newspaper, Is no more, at least
under that name. In its place Is be
ing published the Portland American
which will be printed in the Eng
lish language exclusively.
This announcement is made edi
torially in the first Issue of the Port
land American, which appeared on
the streets yesterday as the succes
sor to the Zeitung. A. p. Kern,
publisher of the Zeitung, is publisher
of the American, and it is understood
that Max Lucke, the German-born
editor of the Zeitung, who has been
under investigation by the govern
ment, and other German employes of
the paper, have been dismissed.
"The last Issue of the Deutsche
Zeitung was distributed yesterday to
its readers,' says an editorial In the
American. "The attorney of the Ger
man Publishing Company in an Inter
view with the United States Attorney,
was informed by this official of his
Intention to suppress the paper un
less it discontinued publication of
matter in the German language.
"The directors of the German Pub-
s
AT THE MAJBSTIO TOMOltROW
llshlng Company wish to make it
known to Its luousands of readers,
whose right to read a two-language
paper has been thus taken away, that
the representatives of the national
government have forced this paper to
suspend publication and that the
Portland American, all English, Is the
best, and for the present the only
substitute which can be offered to
the subscribers for the Deutsche Zei
tung."

SOUTHERN PACIFIC LINES
PORTLAND, Sept. 19. S. W. Wil
liams, special assistant to the attor
ney general of the Unitud States, is
in Portland to remain for some time,
in charge of a suit to be brought
against the Oregon & California Rail
road Company for an accounting of
sums recoived for tho sale of Oregon
& California grant lands.
The Ferris-Chamberlain bill auth
orized a suit to determine what
amount Bhall be paid by the govern
ment for its $2.50 an acre equity in
the 2,300,000 acres of tho land grant
forfeited.
From this equity there is to be de
ducted, under the bill, money for
back taxes due the counties, and
money which the railroad company
has received for the Bale o Its lands
in excess of $2.50 per acre. Just
how much has been so received, and
accordingly how much to deduct, wilt
be determined in the suit for an ac
counting. An Interesting question will also
arise over the status of the Booth
Kelly Lumber Company as an Inno
cent purchaser of Oregon & California
grant lands. This company bought
approximately 70,000 acres from the
railroad company prior to 1908, pay
ing from $10 to $15 an acre.' Later,
under an act of congress of 1912, it
was required to pay the government
$2.50 on each acre, for which it is
now suing the railroad company. Mr.
Williams will determine whether tho
government is interested In any way
In this suit. m
Mr. Williams spent several months
here two years ago for the purpose
of making a detailed report to the
attorney-general.
His findings formed the basis for
the Ferris-Chamberlain bill. He waB
instrumental in obtaining for the
state Its percentage of the money to
be obtained from Bale of the grant
lands. Under the arrangement adopt
ed, the Btale's school fund will re
ceive 26 per cent, the road fund 25,
the United States reclamation fund
40 and the government treasury 10
per cent.
Mr. Williams during his stay hero,
probably will supervise and handle
the payments of back taxes which
are to be made by the government to
the Oregon counties.

TWO MORE TRAINS
OF
Two more troop trains passed
through this city yesterday evening,
and were fed here. The second train
which brought more than 450 of
the recruits was composed of men
from San Mateo, Tulare, and Kern
counties, Hukerstleld furnishing the
largest number of any one place,
the number from there being 202.
Tho boys were In especially good
spirits apaprently and seemed eager
to get Into active service. The sides
of the cars wore covered with slo
gans among which were "We'll kill
the kaiser, girls, don't worry." "We
want the kaiser and we're going to
get him," and others of a similar
nature. One car ahd a cartoon of
the kaiser with the words, "U. S. for
him." Another cartoon was that of
a Gorman daschund, with the words
"His dog now, his goat next."
The third train, which brought
the largest number of men who pass
through this city yesterday arrived
last night at about 8:45. This train
was composed of about 660 men
from Stockton, which furnished
over 200, and more than 100 from
the rest of San Joaquin county. Tho
remainder were from Napa, Sonoma,
and' Eldorado counties.
Those bojB like those of the other
two trains seemed in good spirits
and eager to got "a lick at the kai
ser." These cars like those of tho other
trains were covered with Blogans
from the different companies, one
quite conBlpicuous and rather sug
gestive one being "Good Night, Kai
ser." These boys as well as the oth
ers had chalked expressions, wishing
the kaiser In a good deal warmer
clime than that of California.
On this train as well as tho two
earlier In tho day there was consid
erable evidence that "California has
not yet gone dry." Quite a largo
crowd was at the station to see the
trains pull In.

ther investigation into tho advisabil
ity of convening tho legislature in

ator McNary telegraphs. "Ily tho
terms of the bill provision Is made
for soldiers' dependents. Forward
ing you copy of bill by mall today."
"With legislation of this character
practically enacted by tho federal
government, the need of stato Inter
vention to care for dependents is very
small," said Governor Wlthycombo.
