methods, declaring that he failed to

with him. however, and there was no
effort made to change any of his rul
ings by an appeal to the convention.

WASHINGTON, July 19. An attack
by Senator La Follette on the general
preparedness programme as the product
of the agitation by moneyed interests,
aided by the metropolitan press, pre
vented a final vote in the Senate today
on the naval bill. The Wisconsin Sen
ator had not completed his speech
when the Senate adjourned tonight.
and he did not indicate how long he I
planned to continue. The generaj be-1
net. nowever, was mat a vote wouia be
reached tomorrow.
Most of today was tahen up with anj
unsuccessful fight by Senators Oliver
and Penrose on the section of the bill
providing for a $11. 000.000 Government
armor plant. By a vote of 51 to 17
the Senate defeated a motion to strike
out the section, and then voted down.
49 to 16, the Oliver amendment to re
fer the armor controversy to the Fed
eral Trade Commission for settlement.
Senator LaFollette contended that
neither conditions confronting the na
tion nor . the testimony given before
the Congressional naval committees
warranted the proposed Navy increases.
1 "A total of $S44.000,000 is the load
that goes on the bended backs of the
American people." he declared. "Why
is this to be done? If it is necessary
now, why was it not necessary four
years ago? You knew then the naval
and military strength of all the for
eign countries. But then the interests
had not been appealed to. Bethlehem
Steel at 40 was not Bethlehem Steel at
840. The Interests behind this prepar
edness plan do not fear Germariy or
England. The plan merely fits into
their imperialistic schemes .
The Senator charged that men had
been forced into preparedness parades
under threats of having their, wages
reduced. Workingmen in Washington,
he said, had told him. they marched
in the demonstration here for thai rea
son. The larger newspapers of the
country, he declared, were influenced
by the advantage of the "interests"
behind the preparedness propaganda, to
devote most space to the testimony of
witnesses before the Congressional
committees who favored preparedness.

WASHINGTON. July 19. The War
Department issued . today a aeries of
fejtrts on the mobilization of the Na
tional Guard lor border duty, all -de
signed to refute charges that the men
have been Improperly rationed and
have not received the best facilities
available in their trip south. Secre
tary Baker is preparing a report to
Congress on the subject, in response
to a resolution adopted a few days
ago.
To show the present conditions in
border camps, Major-General Tasker
H. Bliss, assistant chief of staff, now
is inspecting the entire border force.
His first report came by telegraph to
day from Mission, Tex., and is as fol
lows: x
"Finished inspection Monday of Illi
nois and Wisconsin troops at Fort Sam
Houston. Will mail report today. Fin
ished Inspection of Virginia and Illi
nois troops at Brownsville yesterday.
Will finish inspection of New York.
Indiana, Minnesota and Texas troops
between Mission and San Benito by
night of 20th. Will mail report soon
afterward.
"Have found camps in excellent sani
tary condition. Men are reasonably
well sheltered and well fed. Have in
terviewed all regimental and company
commanders, and taken down their
statements by the stenographer. Thus
far they are unanimous in expressing
satisfaction and contentment of offi
cers and enlisted men. Deficiencies in
equipment are being made up as rap
idly as possible. General Funston and
his stall deserve great credit for efn
cient handling of problem."
Summing up the reports the War
Department today Issued this state
ment:
"The War Department regards the
handling of the details of the move
ment of troops to the border as ex
cellent in every respect."
The department made public a pre
liminary report from Dr. Thomas Dar
lington. of New York City, who has
been making an inspection of the Na
tional Guard camps on the border at
the instance of the National Civic Fed
eration, and with the consent of the
War Department. Dr. Darlington's
message told of his inspection of the
camps at Fort Sam Houston. Tex.
where 14.000. men . are quartered, and
added:
Reassure relatives and friends o
soldiers. General medical and sanita
tion conditions reassuring thus far.
No contagious diseases."
ORKGON AGRICULTURAL COL
LEGE. Corvallts. Or., July IS. (Spe
cial.) Irrigated farms in Malheur
County are giving a good return, ac
cording to a report just prepared by
Farm Management Demonstrator
Keyes, of the extension service of tlv
college. The analysis of 4 farms yi
that section shows a net labor income
of $931. This return is figured after
all expenses of operation are deducted
and allowances made for interest on the
total investment. It is also exclusive
of the cost of the labor of the mem
bers of the family and the supplies used
by the family which were taken from
the farm.
The analysis shows that farms from
8' to 140 acres pay best under the con
ditions obtaining there. It also indi
cated that corn brought the highest re
turns per acre, and Fall grains the
lowest. Hogs proved to be very profit
able. With the market in fair condi
tion, the farmers of that section seem
to be getting good returns in feeding
their corn and alfalfa to hogs.
While the analysis is based entirely
ipo:i the figures from one year's re
turns, it is felt that they are essen
tially reliable. Analyses will be made
rach year for several years on these
farms in order that the average pro
duction and market conditions may be
determined and the various factors
entering into the agriculture of that
section classified as to -their relative
merits.

visitor early this week, having made
the trip by auto, accompanied by E. H.
ClarK. Multnomah County Deputy Game
Warden.
This was Mr. Shoemaker s first visit
to this part of the county and probably

TRACY SCHOOL TAX LOSES
Proposal to Send Pupils to F.stacada
Is Defeated.
ESTACADA. Or.. July 19. (Special.)
At a meeting of the Tracy school dis
trict of Garfield, held this i week, the
budget calling for the voting of a
mill tax. for the schooling of the dis
tricts" pupils in the Estacada schools,
was defeated.
The outcome of the meeting was
sunrise to many of the taxpayers, who
had supposed that the consensus of
opinion was in favor of having the
40 or 60 pupils transported daily to and
from' the Estacada schools, a distance
of about four miles, and the consequent
elimination of the rural school.
It is likely the quetsion will be re
considered.

Knowing the tactics of the British
and French and realizing that scores

caught in these nets that were stretched
across the English Channel, those that

causing the men great anxiety. for
with these to aid the two which have

son T. Smith, of Idaho, is author of a
bill under which the officers and men
of the National Guard on duty on the
Mexican border, in Mexico, or at camps

vote by mail in the Congressional and
