The tournament for the champion
ship of the Portland Golf Club has pro
gressed slowly during tne past week.
The bad weather, together with yester
day's tournament, is given as the
"cause. The players have all qualified,
' however, and it is expected that play
will get under way during the week.
"When play in the annual Oregon
State Golf Tournament starts this
morning on the Waverly Country Club
course at 9 o'clock, more than a score
of new entries will be lined up. Nearly
100 golfers have been secured to play
in the championship event.
Entries from the California enthu
siasts were not received up to last
night and all hopes of any southern
representatives to be on hand were
given up. Because so many names are
down on the list it will be necessary
for play to start Immediately at 9
o'clock and all entries are requested
to tee off promptly as-their turns come.
.
Among the new entries received yes
terday Andrew Junor is the only Port
land Golf Club member, while S. R.
Hall. E. Lazarus, H. H. Holland, E. A.
Da Schweinitz, F. Hart, II. H. Sargent,
.T. S. Campbell, E. W. Jones, A.' F.
Smith, J. K. Gamble, John Latta, C.
C Whitnev, A. C. Hugh Berry and
C H. King hail from the Waverly
Country Club.
Several days will be consumed in de
ciding the championship and several
special matches, both for men and wo
men, have been arranged by those Jn
charge. Interest among the women has
caused several new names to appear
on the entry list.

MUNITIONS DEAL FAILS
FRENCH SENATOR DISCLOSES NE
GOTIATIONS WITH SCHWAB.
risi for Control of Bethlehem Steel
Works Virtually Completed bat
Dropped for Unstated Reason. .
PARIS, June 13. (Special.) As ef
fort of the French government to ob
tain control of a large section of the
American steel industry shortly after
the war began was disclosed today by
Senator Humbert, who has been active
ly engaged in a campaign to secure
more ammunition. Senator Humbert
was himself sent to the United States
as agent for the French government.
He went directly to Charles Schwab,
told him that his government required
an arsenal that would be the equal of
the great Krupps' plant and made a
bid on behalf of France for control of
the Bethlehem steel works.
Mr. Schwab quickly told him that he
could put the entire resources of the
Bethlehem works at the disposal of the
French government. At the same time
Mr. Schwab, according to Senator Hum
bert, intimated that he expected an im
mense cash offer for the works on be
half of Germany. He said, however,
that he did not want cash securities
from France, but would gladly place
the steel works at the French govern
ment's disposal on Senator Humbert's
word of official acceptance.
For some reason the plan was never
completed. Just why this was Senator
Humbert did not explain, though he
promised to do so at a later date. Con
sequently France was unable to profit
by Schwab's offer, which it is under
stood provided that the government
should have the Bethlehem works to do
with as it pleased during the war.

EDITORIAL
We had' the pleasure tbls wk,
of reading a graduation oration
composed by a iriend who's
young idea has finished shooting
in a nearby college, and we are
reminded Lhereby that the IVlo
crop of intellectual white hopes
is about to be released upon our
fair land.
Out two previous occasions, wc
remember now we ourself broke
out of college with a glad snout
and rushed to Join tne merry
throng which was preparing to
get a tail-hold on the Wicked
Old World and twist It around
into the paths of Justice and
righteousness.
We got the tall-hold all right
after some Jockeying, but are
free to confess that the Old
World bu snaked us through
several briar thickets and over
some pretty hard cobblestone
without us being able to get his
nose slewed around into the
paths of J. and r. along which
we originally Intended to drive
him.
We still find ourselvea won
dering at times whether we will
be aole to maintain even our
tail hold through the next patch
of cactus, but most or the time
we are too busy maintaining it
to spend much time in wonder
ing. We gather from the gradua
tion oration we have Just per
used, that our young friend is
figuring on Jumping In front of
the Old World's head, kicking
its fore-feet out from under it.
bull-dogging it into submission
and then, after he has hogtied It
at his leisure, dragging it down
the paths of J. and r. himself.
We gather from his remarks
that he regards this plan as the
most feasible one.
We had, intended, before we
read his oration, to give him
some experienced advice ou
dodging In and grabbing its tall
as it went by, but after study
ing his plan carefully, we have
decided to let Um try to put it
over.
And if he is successful, we be
lieve that the gen. pub. may
look to aee some mighty clever
foot-work inside the next three
weeks.

Nearly all the officials and employes
Of the Southern Pacific passenger de

BE CLEAN
INTERNALLY
Over 300,000 People Are Now
Doing So.
For many years physicians have agreed
that 95 per cent, of human ills was caused
by accumulated waste in the Lower Intes
tine; that in our present way of living:
Nature could not remove ell this waste
without assistance, no matter how regular
we might be; and that the poisons from
this waste circulating through the blood
pulled us away down below par and were
responsible for many diseases of a serious
nature.
During this time the "J- B. L. Cascade"
for Internal Bathing has, because of their
recommendation and those of its users,
been steadily growing in favor.
Recently, however, the startling- news
which has been covering the country that
great surgeons and specialists . have been
operating on the Lower Intestine in such
serious diseases as Tuberculosis, and attrib
ute such conditions of chronic ill health
as Nervous Debility and Rheumatism to
this cause, also saying thfrt these poisons
are favorable to the development of Can
cer and Tuberculosis (as stated in a re
cent article in the New York Times), has
caused Americans to become thoroughly
awake to the importance of keeping this
Lower Intestine - free from all poisonous
waste matter, and over 300,000 are now
using Internal Baths.
If you try the "J. B. L. . Cascade" you
will find yourself always bright, . confident
and capable the poisonous waste makes us
bilious, blue, dull and nervous. Internal
Baths are Nature's own cure for Constipa
tion just warm water properly applied.
Drugs force Nature the "J. B. L. Cas
cade" gently assists her.
