The place where Mr. Brockman met his desth Is remote and singularly lnac cessible.

OTHERS ar IMITATIONS SALEM. Or., Aug. 9. (Special.) Oregon's fourth liberty loan quota probably will be double that of the third loan, according to Information conveyed in a letter to Governor Withy combe today from James K. Lynch, ot San Francisco, governor of the Federal Reserve Bank there. The quota of the last campaign was 118,495,000. The Secretary of the Treasury has Informed us that the fourth campaign will last three weeks, commencing Sat urday. September 29, and closing Sat urday, October IS," states Mr. Lynch in his letter. . ""While no further par ticulars have yet been announced, the indications are that the amount will be so much in excess of previous lib erty bond Issues that it will call for the greatest possible effort on the part of all interested in making this loan a complete, success. This can be better appreciated when is remembered that of the 3,000,- 000.000 third loan, the 12th District's share was- 7 per cent or $210,000,000, hlch means that If the next loan U $6,000,000,000 this district's portion would .be approximately $420,000,000. and, therefore, practically double the quota allotted to Oregon In the last campaign." HIGH JINKS' UNDER BAN SELECTED MEN TO HAVE LEADERS ' WITH MILITARY POWER. - New Order Provides for Careful Super vision of Men While En Route to Federal Cantonments. "High Jinks" on trains bearing se lected men to mobilization points will not be popular or profitable when new regulations announced from the office of the Provost Marshal-General are put into effect. A new pamphlet of some four Daires. defining what the selectives may and may not do and arranging stringent supervision for them has Just been issued. . - Among other things the changed in structions provide that leaders and as sistant leaders shall be appointed and sworn as special military police. In this capacity the draftee leaders have the power to do most anything to pre serve order and discipline that the of ficer of the law has. It Is required that these special officers report promptly all cases of misconduct to the commanding officer of the camp. Selectives are hereafter to be pro vided with armbands or brassards bear lng the letters "U. 8. N.

How the operation of America's rail way system of 250,000 miles represent ing a valuation of $25,000,000,000 under Government auspices and the general direction in which such operation Is tending was outlined by L. C. Gilman, district director, aa guest of honor at a welcome-home luncheon tendered by the Seattle 'Chamber of Commerce, at tended by 400 representative business and professional men today. Mr. Gilman said that the policy ot the Government would be to haul munitions before millinery, that the demands of the transportation for war exigencies would be preferred under all conditions and business second, but that the railways were Just now in a position to handle both satisfactorily. He announced that in. all probability no' new railway lines would be built for industrial development until after the war, but that when any mineral or other . deposit valuable to the Gov ernment m prosecution of wan- were required tracks would be built to It. Many Sacrifices Made. Mr. Gilman said that many railroad' men, while regretting the conditions that made Federal operation of the railways necessary, nevertheless since it was done the great work of unifying the systems had been carried on by the sacrifice, loyalty and patriotism of the men of the transportation world. These sacrifices, he said, "have, been great, but they are nothing com pared with those that are this hour being made on the battlefields of France and inlanders. "He declared that reports of luke warm ness of railway men and a desire to handicap the Government in order that Federal ownership would be im possible was untrue of railway men. 'Such an act by a railroad man. he stated, "would be that of a traitorous scoundrel, similar to that of the man who 'would blow up a munitions fac tory or scuttle a ship. 'The railway administration is close ly knit, compact and harmonious, and in condition to halt the Hun and make the world a decent place In' which to live. We have completed our organi sation. The railroad way is to furnish good service efficiently and economi cally. This has been achieved by weld ing all the railway systems into one unit as quickly and thoroughly as pos sible without disabling the properties. Competition Is Abolished. "We have abolished competition. It no longer makes any difference which line gets the traffic, so we send it the most economical and effective way. Spruce, and fir for war purposes are moving in solid trains from ocean to ocean without the necessity of switch ing. Our purpose is not to encourage travel for pleasure, but to maja it as comfortable as possible for those who must. travel. We have moved 3,000,000 troops and It Is more important to do this for the boys who are going' to fight your battles. If we can't move both pleasure travel and soldiers we'll move the soldiers. We must move munitions before 'millinery. At . the present time we are able to serve both the Government and commerce." . Mr. Gilman said that Jow rates and high costs had brought him to the opinion that the Government's action in taking over the railways was timely, expressing a doubt as to whether the lines could have performed the service required. vv e want to be able to have you say to the transportation men after the war," he said in conclusion. "Well done, you have done your part in performing youT duty bys the country and the imperial Germ,an government." . i. i i .
