to sales of real estate, comparing the
sale prices with the assessed valua
tion in an effort to show that private
property Is assessed at a lower ratio
than the railroad property. Tax
Agent Charles A. Murray, of the
Northern Pacific, sought this week to
have the State Board of Equalization
check these data officially, but was
told that the board had no funds for
this purpose, and was Invited to have
the county auditors certify as to the
correctness of the figures. "
In 1913 a similar attempt was made
to obtain reductions by the same group
of railroads, and when requests were
refused successively by the State Tax
Commission and the Board of Equali
zation, a suit was carried to the
Supreme Court. The court only re
cently gave a final decision, adverse
to the railroads.
No fight of the magnitude of that of
1913 and no suits were attempted last
year.
Couutry Described In Better Condi
tion Sir Edward Carson Says
War Minister Has Absolute
, : Confidence of Colleagues.
LONDON, July 10. Field Marshal Earl
Kitchener, whose conduct of the War
Office has been criticised by certain
sections of the British press, received
a remarkale ovation from the public
Friday on his visit to the London Guild
Hall to make an appeal for recruits,
and particularly for reserves for the
great army he has raised since the out
break of the war.
From the War Office to the Guild
Hall great crowds assembled to wel
come the Secretary of War, and as he
drove through the troop-lined streets
cries of welcome and confidence were
ehouted at him, while a meeting of
business men in the Guild Hall unani
mously voted confidence in his adminis
tration. Primary Need Is Men.
The great need of the moment, said
Earl Kitchener, was men, material and
money. Honey, being raised by loan,
was a success, he said, and he assured
the meeting that the question of mate
rial was being dealt with in a highly
satisfactory manner by the new Minis
try of Munitions. But there still re
mains the vital need of men, he de
clared. "Men and more men," he cried,
"until the enemy is crushed."
The country is in a better position
than it was when the war broke out,
and he made his first appeal for re
cruits. Lord Kitchener declared, but, he
added, the position was still serious and
he made an urgent call for men to fill
the gaps which had been made in the
ranks of the army.
While at the beginning of the war
the British were short of equipment.
Karl Kitchener made the statement that
now the War Office was able to equip
ail men enlisting.
Carson Answers Critics.
On moving a vote of thanks to Earl
Kitchener and pledging the City of
London to support him. Sir Edward
Car3on, the Attorney - General, an
swered a sectioD of the British press
which recently hd been attacking the
War Minister. He said: "It is enough
to say of him that he possesses the
absolute confidence of every colleague
In the Cabinet, and. what is more, the
absolute confidence and unflinching de
votion of a grateful nation. I do not
know a poorer service anyone could
give his country than to attempt to
shake the confidence of the nation In
Lord Kitchener."
Sir Edward concluded:
"Voluntary recruiting is now on Its
trial. Does anyone doubt if it fails
that we shall hesitate to apply com
pulsory service?"
Kitchener Predicts Lodz War. .
The text of Lord Kitchener's speech
follows in part:
"Hitherto the remarks I have found
it necessary to make on recruiting
have been mainly addressed to the
House of Lords, but I feel that the
time has come when I may, with ad
vantage, make another and larger de
mand on the resources of English man
hood. "Enjoying as I do the privilege of a
free man of this great city. I am sure
my words, uttered in the heart of Lon
don, will spread broadcast throughout
the nation.
"When I took up the office I hold I
did so as a soldier and not as a poli
tician, and I warned my fellow-countrymen
that the war would not be only
arduous but long.
"All the reasons which led me to think
in August, 1914. that this war would be
a prolonged one, hold good at the pres
ent time. It is true that we are in an
immeasurably better situation now than
we were 10 months ago, but our posi
tion today is at least as serious as it
was then."
The Field Marshal said there had
been much talk about slackers that is,
persons doing literally nothing to help
the country but that this should not
be exaggerated, for he believed the
residuum of absolute "do nothings" was
relatively small.

Formal transfer of the stock of the

and their associates was arranged at a
meeting in Portland Friday.
The company proposes to build a
railroad from Grants Pass, Or., to
Crescent City, Cal., and recently Twohy
Bros., of Portland, agreed to finance
the project and build the road.
The company is incorporated for S.
000,000. It has an authorized bond
issue of $5,000,000, of which the people
of Grants Pass recently purchased
$200,000. This money was used in
building ten miles of road westward
from Grants Pass. Twohy Bros, now
are engaged in extending this line five
mles and probably will have this por
tion of the project completed this year.
Meanwhile they are running lines over
the remaining distance in the hope of
being able to begin actual construction
work all along the line early next
Spring.

derson, chief milk inspector for the
Department of Health in Seattle and
president of the Milk Inspectors' As
sociation of the United States, at the
second and last day of the congress
held here by the International Milk
Dealers' Association.
A paper by Professor H. L. Russell,
dean of the College of Agriculture of
the University of Wisconsin, was read
on the best safeguard for the milk
supply of a large city. He said: "It
is a Jong way from the old pour-out
process of can delivery of milk to the
modern method of in-bottle pasteur
izing, but the price of fresh milk to
the consumer has not advanced any
thing like what it has for other prod
ucts. "Too few consumers - ever realize
how much actual food value they get
in fresh milk compared with other food
products. Based on actual nutritive
elments, a quart of good, fresh milk
equals nine ounces of bread, three
fourths of a dozen eggs, 11 ounces of
steak, eight average sized potatoes, 16
oranges, nine Dananas or 14 apples. '
The newspaper was characterized as
the best medium for advertising the
iraae in a paper written by C. E. Pot
