In Restoring Peace in Nlrirkrn Mexlio Conference Held, An announcement dated August 2, from Washington, stales that the United States has asked for the co operation of South and Central Amorica in restoring peace in Mexico. Ambassadors from Brazil, Chile and Argentina and the ministers from Uruguay, Bolivia and Guate mala conforred with Secretary Lan sing late yesterday. American du ctals feel that tho next step In the Mexican policy should bo tuken in concert with the nations of Central and South America. Following Is the announcement as made by Secre tary Lansing: "On Thursday afternoon there will be an informal conference at the State department to consider the Mexican situation. Those taking part in the conference will be the Ambas sadors from Brazil, Argentina and Chile, and the three runklng minis ters of the American republics, namely, those of Bolivia, Uruguay and Guatemala. As to the details which will be considered, nothing can be said at the present time as the conference will be entirely con fidential." PROGRESS OF THE WIL LAMETTE PACIFIC Over a thousand men are now em ployed in Oregon on the construc tion of the new Willamette Pacific railroad, which, connecting Eugene and Marshfleld, will be 126 miles In length when completed. Of this 57 miles of track have been laid. Features In the construction of the line arc: Three bridges, one cross ing the Siuslaw river near Acme, the second crossing the Umpnua near Gardner and the third over Coos Hay near North Bend. The bridge over the Siuslaw near Acme has a 286-foot through-riveted draw span with 100 feet of clear span and two 200-foot connecting spans. The total weight of the approaches and draw span is 1,895,000 pounds. That over the Umpqua is a 34 8 foot through-riveted draw span, with nine 125-foot through-riveted ap proach spans. The total weight Is 3,632,000 pounds. The Coos Bay bridge is a 458-foot through-riveted draw span, with nine 150-foot and two 180-foot through riveted approach spans. Total weight, 5,254.574 pounds. The new road calls for twelve bridges and four miles of t rest ling The total amount of steel still to be erected Is over 6000 tons of 12,000, 000 pounds. Just when the Willamette Pacific will be completed is hard to say at this time. The road is already in operation between Eugene and Ma pleton, and ballasting is being done between Mapleton and Florence. The contractors are working north from Marsh field and the last spike will probably be driven somewhere In the vicinity of Gardner, or about where the line crosses the Umpqua. v With a combined rail and auto stage service, the Willamette Pacific now makes through connections with Marshfleld. As soon as trains are in operation to Acme, It will be possible to make the through trip by rail and stage from Eugene to Marshfleld in one day. JUST ONE OREGON FARM. , An exhibit In the Oregon pavilion, Palace of Agriculture, that attracts! a great deal of attention Is that one ' showing 670 varieties of products from a single farm. This showing is made by D. M. Lowe of Jackson ' county, who Is particularly well- known to Oregon 8tato Fair attend ants. This exhibit is made uo of grains, grasses, fruits, vegetables.' the legumes, several varieties of( corn, flax, and about every thing else namable. The average visitor Is thoroughly amazed that such a tre mendous variety of products can be produced on a single farm and many stay to discuss the situation thor oughly. That this production Is ob tained without the aid of Irrigation, that the products grow to a splen did maturity without InterruDtlon. and that so much of the exhibit is of top-notch stuff but Increases the won der,. A feature of the exhibit is a large case of Bilver cups, medals and blue ribbons that Mr,. Lowe has won by similar exhibits at other exposi tions and Btate fairs. This is a mag nificent advertisement for Southern Oregon and the state at large and furnishes great opportunity for at tendants to dwell upon Oregon op portunity and possibility.. A com panion exhibit also assists very ma terially In this effort at exploitation.. This Is the splendid showing made by F,. M,. Sherman of Linn county,. He shows what can be grown on an un- lrrigated ten-acre farm and there lii an unusual variety of fine products,. However, Mr. Sherman has discover-; ed that it pays to grow first-claim seed of all kinds and this Is his special effort. There Is always a strong demand for good seed at a good price and ho rccommonds this ImluHtry to those on the small tract. The public finds his exhibit of great Interest. HOW TO MAKE A HIT WITH THE BARBER Anyone wishing to make a hit with tho harbor would do well In carefully road the following Instruc tions: When you see a friend In tho chair getting a shave, walk up to the barber and say, "Cut that guy's throat;" or you may say, "Harbor. I'll slip you two bits If you'll lot 1110 shavo that thing." Another thing that wins the adiulrutliin of tho bar ber Is, when you see him working on a bald-headed man, you yell out, "Part his hair in tho center." Rush Into the shop and begin taking off your tie and collar and at tho sumo time say, "'I'm next, nln't I, barber?" When ho Informs you that there are two uhcud, you must grab your hat and rush for tho door and say. "Well, I'll huve to got shaved In Portlund. I huven't time to wait. Besides, I can got it for a dime up there. " Tho harbor will always lovo you if you pill one like that. If, while in tho shop on Saturday, the man ahead of you gets in tho chair to got a hair-cut, you must al ways mako a remark, something like this. Just loud enough for the barber and customer to hoar: "This is a fine time to come around and got a hair cut. Why didn't he got that yester day?" If upon entering the shop you soo four or live waiting, you should pro coed In this manner: Walk up to the barber, tap him on the shoulder and whisper In his ear: "Say, you, I've just simply got to got a shave right away. I'm In an awful hurry, got a date with a chicken tonight, and I can't wait. Can't you slip me in ahead of these follows? You know them and ought to fix it up all right. I Just simply got to moot that June or It's all off. You know mo, Al." Anyone following the rules Is sure to have the undying gratitude of tho barber, as well as being assured of the best services he run render. OREGON HAS LIBERY BELL Those who have attended the ex position recently toll us that the Pennsylvania building, with Its his toric and greatly beloved Liberty Bell, bus nothing on the Oregon building. Through tho favor of two gentlemen of Union county, the Ore gon building has been decorated with a "Liberty Hell," made of Hings and Royal Ann cherries. The design Is four by six feet, and tho representa tion of the bell, even to tho crack In this historic relic, lu perfect. Jack London, famous author, just in from a five months' sea trip, visit ed the Oregon building the other day, registored and under "remark," he wrote: "Fine and splendid." To the one In Charge, London suld ho could writo a book about tho Oregon build ing and showing. Those who havo Just returned, say that to really enjoy the exposition, take your overcoat, that the Oregon winter underwear is comfortable. The Golden Gute city usually has her winter in the good old summertime, and the big show Is located on the windiest and foggiest side of the city. July and August are counted the worst of the year, and September, October and February, tho best. CIRCUIT COURT. July 27 Jonas Nystrom vs. John Kallherg and wife; complaint to re cover cow.
