AUSTIN. Texas, April 24. Request
of the Mexican government through
the state department at Washington
for permission for Generals Juan Jose
Itios and Manuel Gambo and their
staffs to cross Texas soil on their
way from Sonora to Jlexico City was
refused by Governor Hobby of Texas
tonight. The party was to travel un
armed as civilians. The state depart
ment saw no objection to granting
permission and asked the acquiescence
of Texas.
Governor Hobby, replying to a tele
gram from Secretary of State Colby,
said he was "unalterably opposed to
the transportation of Mexican 'troops
or any military of ficlals thereof across
Texas soil." '
Such transportation, he said, "would
likely provoke trouble" and put Amer
ican citizens on the border at- the
mercy of bandits.

WASHINGTON. April 24. "The
United States has become a robber's
roost," Senator Capper, republican,
Kansas, declared in a prepared ad
dress today ii the senate in which
he scored profiteering and declared
that if the law enforcement officers
of the government could not enforce
the laws they should resign "and let

He declared that the proof of profi

the senate a long list or corporations
whose profits were placed at any
where from 20 to 200 per cent.
"Wall streets melon patches," he
declared, "continue to be warmed by
the sun of privilege, fertilized by the
perspiration of labor and watered by

The senator cited numerous cor

enormous profits, and then turned to
agriculture.
"Our greatest industry agriculture

"It is wrong to assfme because

ber owned by the Oregon Land &
Livestock company, of which R. A.

rates a big mill at Cljiloquin, north
of Klamath Falls, was announced to
day by Mr. Booth. The land lies in
Lake and Klamath counties.
Mr. Booth declined to announce the
purchase price, but stated that tt
could be classed as a million-dollar
deal. Most of the timber is in Lake
county and la tributary to Lakeview.
It lies at the head of Sprague river
and around Drew valley.
Mr. Booth stated today that the
Modoc Lumber company intends in
the near future to operate extensively
in that locality and included in the
company's plans is the construction
of a railroad leading from the tim
ber to the large rnjll which is in con
templation. The company will be
able to operate either from the
Sprague river side and use the Stra
horn railroad or rom the other side,
where the railroad that extends into
Lakeview can be used, said Mr. Booth.
George H. Kelly of Portland is sec
retary of the Oregon Land & Live
stock company, and A. C. Dixon, man
ager of the Booth-Kelly Lumber com
pany, and John F. Kelly of this city
are stockholders. The Modoc Lum
ber company is headed by Charles
Hall of Marshfield. who is president
of the Oregon Chamber, of Commerce
and president of the Southwestern
Oregon bank at Marshfield. and J.
Goldwaite is manager.
Mr. Booth said today that this tract
is among the finest of pine timber in
southeastern Oregon. It was acquired
by the Oregon Ixtnd & Livestock com
pany as part of an old stage grant
taken over by the company 13 or 20
years ago.

Can-De-
SALEM, Or., April 24. (Special.)
Marion county loganberry growers, at
a meeting held here today, voted to
reject an offer of "3 cents a pound for
their 1920 crop.
Buyers representing all' of the
larger canneries and processing plants
of the northwest were present at the
meeting. They- explained that it would
be impossible for them to pay 11
cents a pound for loganberries, as
originally demanded by the growers.
but, after an executive session, agreed
to make an offer of 13 cents for the
season's crop. This offer was flatly
refused by the growers.
Managers of the. Phez company
and Salem Kings Products comnanv
said they would be unable to pay
even 13 cents a pound for the berries
and retired from the bidding early
in the meeting. In past years these
companies have handled the larger
part of the loganberries grown in this
part of the state.
At the close of the meeting neither
the buyers or growers indicated a
willingness to compromise, and the
situation is said to be serious as far
as it relates to the berry industry of
this section.
Growers contend that the high
prices of labor and suppfies have
forced them to demand 14 cents a
pound for the berries, while the can
ners and processors declare such a
price would prove ruinous to the in
dustry, in that the finished article
could not lie purchased by people of
ordinary means.
