Boy Scouts Are Before
The Public This Week
Ready To Distribute
While In Medford Mouday nego
tiating for the automobile exhibit to
bo ono of the loading features of the
Fourth of July oelebratlon E. T. Sta
ples witnessed the airplane exhlblbt
given by the fleet that arrived there
In the forenoon on Its way from Sons store last Sunday night, pre
Mather Field to the Portland Rose sumably for the purpose of securing
Festival. During the stay of the a now outfit of wearing apparel, as
fleet there Mr. Staple got In touch
with Colonel Henry L. Watson, com-
mandln? officer of the expedition, to
whom he laid the claims of Ashland
for an exhibit during the celebration
here, with the result that this city
will, In all probability have these air
vlBltants hare during the three days
of this celebration. j
The management of the celebration '
have been negotiating -with the Ore-
gon Aero Club with tba result that,
en exhibit Is practically promised for J
that date, but the colonel of this1
ftiel going north yesterday stated
that he expects to take the matter u?
with the authorities when ho reached
.Portland, and thinks that without
doubt these planes will come back
this way in time to arrive here for
July 3, 4 and 5.
Ashland has an ideal site for air
plane landing, according to the path
finders who visited this diction
couple of weeks ago, laying out a
trail for the flight to the Rose Fes
tival. Tliis Is just across Bear creek,
In plain sight of the city, which was
reported by th1? visitors to be the
finest landing field in the state.
"Whether or not the airplanes that
passed over Ashland yesterday will
return here next month or sooner is
not definitely known, but it Is vir
tually certain that an air circus will
be one of the leading attractions at
the Fourth of July celebration. . .
Planes Pass City
on Hortnera
Trip
The army planes en route to Port
land from Mather Field . passed so
far above Ashland yesterday morn
ing that their presence' was only
glimpsed In tWo sky as they went
over the valley on their way to Med
ford where they landed and gave an
exhibit. According to the plans
made at the tlmb of the visit of the
officers who were here locating land
ing fields for the flying circus, the
cities omitted on the -flight north
would be visited whien the air craft
returned, so Ashland has that "pros
pect for the future.
Word was sent to Ashland early in
the morning that the planes had left
Oreneda, Calif., and would be due
In a short tlmo. For upwards of a
oouple of hours the Inhabitants spent
most of the time gazing heavenward,
and about 10 o'clock their vigil waft
awarded by seeing sfcveral tiny specks
appearing over the southern horl
. zoo. The fire whistle then apprised
the residents of the arrival of tho air
flight, and the greater majority of
the population turned out to gaze
a toft at six motes about the size of
gnats floating in the ether. The whir
of tW9 engines, however, proclaimed
them honest p goodness airplanes as
they made their way leisurely across
the Intervening stretch of the upper
alley. Two had the kindness to re
turn and circle a trifle closer so that
the body and wings of the great ma
chine could be distinctly seen with
tho naked eye.
On reaching Mfcdford the planes
went over the 'city to the landing;
field on the Jacksonville road where
they went thru various maneuvers
land took on a supply of gas before
continuing their flight The fleet
separated at Medford,' the first sec
tion .storing at CorvaJlll8 and Leba
non before reaching Portland,, and
tho slseond visiting Roseburg, Eugene
and Salem. -.
The seventh plane icame along
eome time after the f IfBt six of the
fleet and passed ovter the. entire val
ley without stopping. t.
J. M. Alnutt, who has charge of
the 'danc concessions for the Fourth
of July celebration, left Monday
night, accompanied by Claude Mor
ton for Portland to .engage music
for this feature. The dancing pub
lic can be assured that the best music
to bin obtained will be secured for
this occasion.

Huns Have 5 Days
To Sign Or Reject
PARIS, June 9. The conference
is considering plans for easing the
terms upon which Germany may be
admitted to the league of nations.
She will be admitted It she .shows i
stable ' government, signs the treaty
and loyally executes It. The replies
to Germany will not be delivered be
fore Friday.
It will be stipulated that Germany
must accept or reject tho treaty
within five days. The delay in fram
ing the reply to Germany is said to
bo due to divergent vlows of Lloyd
George and Premier Clemenceau.
Treaty a Peace 0!
Hate Says Austria
VIENNA, June 9. The peace
terms presented to Austria are im
possible and mean the death of the
country by starvation, President
Seltz declared in his address open
lng the extraordinary session of the
national essembly yesterday. .
After declaring that the treaty was
a peaoe of hate, Bauer released per
sonal vials of wrath against the
Czechs, who, he said, had taken all
of Austria's sugar. The loss of Ger-:
man Bohemia to Austria, he added,
meant not merely-subjection of over
3,500,000 Germans to foreign rule,
but the loss of the most valuable
ptrts of German-Austria, Industrial
ly and culturally. .
Dr. Bauer declared the Tyrol
would nevler submit to the peace
terms and that It, as well as the Ger
mans or Bohemia, had the sympathy
of all Germans. ' -

All advertising matter for the big
Rogue River Roundup, Including 600
one sheets, 5,000 hand bills, 1000
window cards and 2000 road signs,
are now In the hands of the adver
tising committee, and the problem
of distributing this literature is one
that has the committee guessing.
Thsre seems to be only one way to
do It, and that Is that every auto-
moblllst contemplating a trip to any
part of the county take it upon him
self to cover that particular terri
tory, and must be done at once.
There are at laast 500 miles of
territory north, east, south and
west of Ashland that needs atten
tion, so it's up to the locals to get
busy, and any one wishing to donate
a little time for the good of tho
cause will please call at Ferguson's
store and get what they are willing
to handle.
Who will be the first one.
