SENATE SESSION 10 BE CALLED
President. Wilson Desires to Ann
Merchant men Keni'dless til' the
Action Taken, Ity Congress
Hilling Closing Honrs.
WASHINGTON, March 5.
President Wilson took the oath
of oflice at 12:17 o'clock today.
Swarms of secret service men
surrounded him. It was the
heaviest guard in the Nation's
history. Vice-President Mar
shall was sworn in at 12:05
o'clock. Hundreds of suffra
gettes refused to participate in
Hie ceremonies. The thousand?
of spectators overwhelmed the
police, and cavalry were used tc.
push back the surging crowds
The trip to the capitol was a
continuous, thunderous ovation.
President Wilson's speech
sounded a new doctrine of inter
nationalism, lie warned the
people that the United States
may experience more immediate
association with war. He urged
unity of American thought, ac
tion and spirit, and voiced a new
peace plan. He advocated limi
tation of armaments, and equal
responsibility of all nations foi
maintaining peace, and the
equality of all nations, destruc
tion of the armed balance of
power, and freedom of the seas.
Ho solemnly suggested that
peace is coming soon. "The
shadows now lying darkly in our
path may soon be dispelled," he
said. He announced that armed
neutrality is the present Ameri
can altitude.
"Vet this may not sullice,"
the President said, "and we may
even be drawn into more active
assertion of our rights." Ik
said the United States has not
contemplated conquest nor na
tional aggrandisement.
in the form of a hollow square
the Second Cavalry surrounded
the President down Pennsyl
vania avenue. A secret service
automobile crowded with armed
guards was also inside the
square. A score of additional
secret service men ' walked
alongside the Presidential auto
mobile. It was the most warlike
inauguration since that of Ab
raham Lincoln. The weather
was cold and a raw wind pre
vailed. The President wore a
hat while speaking.

INITIAL CARLOAD OF
BROCCOLI WILL LEAVE
HERE ABOUT MARCH 15
A. E. Kitchin, milliliter of tin1
loral plant uf the Cinpiiua Valley
Cruit t'nioti, slated this uliei-uoou
that it would probably he March l.'
before th' first carload of broccoli
is shipped from Douglas County to
the Kastern market. The delay is
due, he says to the recent cold
weather which retarded the growth
of the plants. The first carload of
broccoli shipped from here last year
left the headquarters of the Ump
iua Valley Fruit I'uion late in Feb
ruary, or about three weeks earliei
than this season.
Although somewhat late this year,
Mr. Kitohln says the growers cx"
peot a good crop, and the prices
will probably be as high, if not
higher than last year. Practically
all of the local product will be hand
led by .lobn Nix 4: Company, ram
mission merchants of Chicago. The
product will bear the official I'mp
iiia Valley label and will be the
means of advertising this section ol
the I'nited States.
SPECIAL SESSION CALLED.

The prospects for a cannery In this
city will probably be determined
within the next few dayH. A meet
ing of the directors of the Itoseburg
Commercial Club to consider new
phases of the project will be held on
I uestlay evening, and later In the
week a meeting will be called for all
parties interested. It Is hoped at the
latter occasion to hoar from the
farmers on whose action the erection
of a cannery is doubtless to depend.
Secretary K. C. Benson, of the
Merchants' Association, who recently
made an Investigation In Portland'
and has obtained considerable data
on the proposed institution, will sub
mit a report, at the meeting Tuesday
evening. While no Intention of the.
Commercial Club directors has been
made knovvn, it is generally -believed
that between $'1000 and $4000 will
build and equip a suitable plant on a
small scale and that this sum as a
beginning can be raised among the
merchanls and farmers with little
difficulty. Mr. Itenson Interviewed
prominent cannery operators Iti Port
laud, and his Information is believed
lo be of the greatest value nt the
present singe of the undertaking, lie
believes also that a callable manager
can be obtained, while efficiency will
be acquired a Her n brief operation.
On the farmers, however, depends
iiui f;Gw proposition, for without
sufficient supplies assured to operate
tiie plant it would be useless, accord
ing to the merchants, to go further
with any such scheme. It. is believed
the products that are annually wast
ed would support a cannery, but the
farmers will havn to Interest them
selves to bring the material to the
plant. Vegetables, berries, and fruit
of all kinds would he used, mid a
cannery would no doubt result In
thousands of dollars being brought
here which would otherwise be spent
elsewhere. It is hoped that the co
operation of the farmers will be se
cured at Ihe big meeting late this
Week.
The site for the cannery Is also
anot her problem under discussion,
and this will find easy solution, since
several have been offered free. One
