THE MORNIXO OREGOXIAIf, SATTTRQAT. OCTOBER GO, 1915, 75,000 DRAWN TO FAIR KLAMATH DAY Wealth and Beauty of Oregon County Reflected In Feast c and Motion Pictures. GOVERNOR HEADS PARTY Yearly 300 Citizens From District Honored at San Francisco Are Present at Observance Plea Is Made for' Settlers. OREGON BUILDING, Exposition Orounds, San Francisco, Oct. 29. (Spe cial.) Klamath day at the Exposition brought 75,000 people to the grounds and a big crowd to the Oregon build ing to hear Governor "Withy combe, Commissioner Hawley, Commissioner Booth, C J. Blanchard, of the Govern ment reclamation service, and Arthur Arlett, for the Governor of California, jtpeak on Klamath County, Oregon, its beauties and resources. Afterward hot bread made by the Sperry Flour Com pany from Klamath flour and spread with Klamath honey, Klamath cheese and crackers and Klamath celery were served to the multitude. Klamath moving pictures, music and dancing finished one of the most delightful days in the Oregon state building's history. Nearly 300 Klamath people were present. The Governor's party from Oregon, Including: Governor and Mrs. Withy combe, Miss Mabel Withy combe, the Governor's staff, Commmissioner and Mrs. John F. Logan, Commissioner and Mrs. C. L. Hawley, Commissioner Clark and 30 other well-known Ore c;onians, arrived at 7 oclock this morning on the Shasta Limited and were met by Mayor Rolph, Arthur Ar lett, for the Governor of California; President Moore, Commissioner Booth of the Oregon building and George U. Hyland. Banquet Served on Train. The Governor's party, coming down, was banqueted in the dining-car,- the party just filling the car, and short speeches were made by Commissioners Clark and Logan. It was a very happy, merry party. Commissioner C. L. Hawley was chairman of the Klamath day exer cises. Arthur Arlett, speaking for Gover nor Johnson, reviewed the riches and beauty of Klamath and prophesied a glorious future, a future near at hand with the cominff railroad development. Commissioner Booth spoke of Klam ath's riches. "If there is a better county than Lane," he said, "it is Klamath; she is rich in forests; her white pine has no superior in woods; Klamath could ship to all our sister states timber sufficient to pay the Na tional debt tn white pine alone." Commissioner Hawley introduced Governor Withycombe as a "great Gov ernor of a great state." Governor Withycombe said in part: "The Klamath people are to be con gratulated on the way they have turned out today; if all our counties would send down such a delegation, Oregon would be a greater state than she is. .The Klamath people deserve great credit for their loyalty and enthu siasm. They represent a rich coun try, a country truly flowing with milk and honey; after the forests there are the farmers to pour wealth into the lap of trade." Plea Made for Settlor. C. J. Blanchard, of the Reclamation Service, made a special plea for fair treatment of the settlers, who. he said, will rush into Klamath and other East ern Oregon counties with the coming of railroads. He told of the mistake of booming prices with the first in flux, of making conditions too hard for the resources of the man looking for a home in a new land. "No man is more valuable to the State of Oregon along agricultural lines than your present Governor," he said. "The Klamath projects combine more elements of success and prosper ity than any projects on the Coast. The possibilities of Klamath County under reclamation are still unrealized; she has the climate, the soil, and will have one of the most satisfactory irrigation systems in the world. More pep and finger in the farmers is all that is needed; also there should be a respon sible board to direct settlers to the land properly. "There should be a proper spirit of co-operation between land owners and the Federal Government; they should tell tho truth about the land, charge a fair price and give the settler a fair chance; the Government should direct the homeseekers, and the land should all be properly appraised. There isn't an organization in one of these West cm states to which a man can go as sured of getting a square deal. There should be an organization among land owners to protect the land buyer.- organized yesterday with the follow ing officers: President, Lula Roberts; first vice-president, Florence Lamou reaux; second vice-president, Majorie Adams; secretary, Gertrude Meinig; eergeant at arms, Ralph Ganger; critic.

I dinger Prompts Desire for More Investi gation Before Execution. BOISE, Idaho, Oct. 29. (Special.) Governor Alexander has appealed to Secretary Lansing to obtain a stay of execution in the case of Albert L. Clingrer, an ex-resident of Reubens, Idaho, condemned to die at Kamloops. Canada, for murder. Intercession for Clingrer is said to be the first in the history of the state on behalf of an ex-resident "condemned in a foreign country. Clinger is accused of the murder of a companion near Kamloops, British Columbia Clinger says that his com panion was killed by the accidental discharge of a gun as they were bieak ing camp one morning, and that he fled from the authorities when he real ized that, as a stranger, he would have little chance to resist a charge of murder. lie contends that there had been no quarrel, and that the two had been such friends that he had lent money to the other for the purchase of the team with which they had planned a trip across the country. After the kill ing the team was returned in lieu of deferred payments, and Clinger then attempted to nee from the country. He was arrested, however, tried, con victed and sentenced to die at Kam loops December 23.

NEW YORK. Oct. 89. J. P. Morgan. who has been at his desk a little more than two months since recovering from bullet wounds inflicted by Erich Muen ter, the mad professor of languages, who attempted to kill the financier last July, again is confined to his bed and under the care of specialists, this time from an attack of appendicitis. Mr. Morgan underwent an operation today which three attendant specialists afterward described as successful. The appendix was removed at noon and the official bulletin, issued shortly there after, said Mr. Morgan was resting com fortably. Continued progress was re ported, unofficially, during the after noon. Attack Mild, Recurrence Feared. The patient's attack .of appendicitis was mild in character, it was said, and his condition was in no way attributed to the attempted assassination of Mr. Morgan by Meunter. Apparently the financier has fully recovered from the effects of the two bullet wounds he sustained then. His general health, his doctors said, was so excellent that his prompt recovery from the operation of today was confidently expected. Mr. Morgan attended a meeting of the directors of the United States Steel Corporation Tuesday. He was at his desk as usual Wednesday. He .was in disposed Wednesday, however, and spe cialists diagnosed his ailment as a mild attack of appendicitis. Fearing, a re currence of the malady later, his physi cians advised him to undergo the oper ation, which was performed at his home in Glen Cove, Long Island. - Effect on Stocks SUtkt. ' All members of the Morgan family were present. On the Stock Exchange the effect of Mr. Morgan's Illness was almost imper ceptible. Stocks went down fraction ally, but quickly rebounded. At the Morgan offices his illness was not regarded as serious by any mem ber of the firm. Whether Mr. Morgan's Dresent indis position could be attributed in part to his recent strenuous activity could not be ascertained today, but the general impression in the financial section was that such might be the case. Mr. Mor gan is 48 years old. WATER ENGINEER NAMED Aberdeen Official to Supervise Con struction of $400,000 System. ABERDEEN, Wash.. Oct. 29. '(Spe cial.) City Engineer I D.
