8 THE OREGON SUNDAY JOURNAL, PORTLAND, SUNDAY MORNING." MAY 30. 1918. RURAL- CREDIT PLAN IS RECOMMENDED BY ; TROUT LAKE FARMER ; If Farmers Could Borrow at a Low Rate THey Would Make Improvements, PRESENT RATES TOO HIGH Vore Attention Should B Paid to the Fumm, ,Xs Opinion of - Si B. Bicater. "If I could borrow money at 4 per . cant on lonf-time security, I would . begin milking: 40 cowi tomorrow where today I milk 20. If X could ' feet this cheap money, I would , put a ga.ng.ot men to work today In clear ling the 100 acres of -wild land on which I pay taxes arid which does no good to me, the state or the nation." B. R. Rlchter, of Trout Lake, "Klickitat county. Wash., who was in ' Portland yesterday, declares the sub ject of rural credits Is the greatest that now faces this nation. Because the farmers are not well organized, do-not know their full rights, do not ' Insist upon what rights they know . about, and too often have not equipped '. themselves to compete with city busi ness men, he says,, their welfare has v largely been neglected and ignored by 4 business men and, lawmakers of state and nation alike. Low, Bate Is Urged. ' "If the farmers could borrow money at a low rate, this whole northwest - would develop faster than the aver ' age person has any idea of," said Mr. Rlchter. "The farmers want to make the most of - things, they have the- energy ana the intelligence, but our' finan cial system is so adjusted that they have 5not -the means. "Cheap money in remote corners of the globe allows producers to export their butter, eggs and beef into the United States and compete success fully with American-grown products. It is not the American farmer's fault that this is so. It is because he has to pay 8 and 10 per cent for the money he is obliged to borrow. The profits from his land and his labor are not enough to allow him to pay so much for money and leave any thing 'for- himself. He therefore does not borrbw, docs not expand and the country does not develop. Farmers Deserve Attention. "More attention should be paid the farmers. They are factories every oue. They create w hat . did not exist before, and add to the wealth of the tate and nation. Tour chamber of commerc, raises a great rejoicing When a new factory employing 200 men is located in Portland, and it Is right that it should. But the farm 'era are doing just what the factories are doing. "Every county in- the southern tier in Washington is tributary to Port land commercially. Politically, of course, -we look to Olympia, but the people of Portland should know, that : our people do not look to Seattle or Tacoma or Spokane for our business inspiration, but to Portand. " We "be long as much to Portland as ' does every county of Oregon Let that simmer." Crop Prospects Good. - Mr. Richter claims to be a "busi ness man" in the broadest sense. He used to ba in the wholesale grocery business, but got out of it in time to , start farming before he should become decrepit. He insists that he is now applying his- business experi ence to the farm. "I do not sell a pound of hay, oats or wheat except to accommodate my neighbors or those who need such supplies right at home,' he said. "I transform the grains and grasses into pork, beef and butter fat. It pays better and is better for the land. "Prospects, in our section were ' never better for abundant crops. Rains have tended to soften the strawberries, -but we don't raise many, being too far from the river to be able to market them."

Clark, chairman of the day election board of precinct 37, was convicted in Circuit Judge Gatens' court last night of a charge of alter ing 128 ballots cast for T. M. Hurl- burt in the election last November to read for T. M. word. The case was tried once before about two week ago and that1 Jury disagreed. The Jury yesterday deliberated about seven hours, reporting to Judge Gatens at 8:30 o'clock. With ihe verdict the jury returned the following suggestion on a sep arate sheet of paper: , "In connection with this case we, the jury, desire to enter & protest against a system which permits th-3 appointment of election officials in the manner disclosed by the testi mony in this case and we hope that parties who probably instigated this crime; will be brought to j-uatice." ; Meaning Wot Clear; Both Judge Gatens and Deputy Dis trict' Attorney Collier failed to get from the Jurymen a statement as to the extent and meaning of this special finding but each promised to interview the jurymen .Tuesday when they re turn to court to determine whether the jurymen have any fixed Ideaa as to who might be behind .Clark. It is supposed the jury in protest ing against the system of appoint ment of election officials opposed the action of the county. .Commissioners in delegating ' that work to D. G. Tomawlni, former county sealer of weights and measures, who had com plete charge of the clerical work of selecting the officials. . Collier announced that Daniel B. Cul hane. an election judge on the same board with Clark, will be tried some day this week on a similar charge. The trial of James N. Linn, a watcher at the polls who is under a t'miiar in dictment, will follow Culhane's trial. ,The jury agreed upon a verdict al most an hour before Judge Gatens, Clark's attorneys and Collier could be reached. Clark and his Wife were waiting in the court room and" the strain proved too much for Mrs. Clark. When the verdict was read' shefell forward on a table and screamed and it was some time before she could be calmed. Clark, se?m-?d hiore worried over his wife's condition than over tho verdict. - " - Penalty Is Stated. Judge Gatens d!r acted Clark to ap pear Tuesday and will probably set the date for sentence at thiit time. The dtatute governing th crime provides renal ties of one to throe years in the . penitentiary or a fine of $500 to J2000 or loth 'fine and imprisonment. Following the reeling- of the vert diet several members of tne Jury ap proached Judge Gattnij with pleas for O'ercy for Clark. ft js expected an a pi eal will be taken. as a noriun for a new trial was susfcested l.isc night by Clark's counsel. The trial is the - res lit - of disclos ure made during recount pioceedings brought by ex-Sheriff Word contesting the election Of Sheriff Hurlburt. Dur ing the recount it .vas found that the day board, of which Clark was chair n.an, had counted a part of the vqtes uhich had .been alrered and that the othtr ballots altered were thrown out by the night board. It was largely oi: tins supposition that many Word bal lots had been thrown out in Precirct 3? that Word bega.i his content. Giant Pitcher May Become Venetian I os Angeles. May 29. (P. N." S.)

G. VANDERBILT Victim of lusitania Disaster Made No Mention" of Char- ity in His Will. i New Tork,. N. Y., May 29. (I. N. S.) The will of Alfred Gwyne Vander bilt, disposing of an estate valued at approximately $$5,000,000. was filed today in the surrogates court. j me milk of the estate upward I of $30.000,000 1 kebt intact as a family fortune. It descends in equal shares upon Alfred G.. Jr., and George Van. derbllt, the dead man's song by his second marriage. It would-appear nrst that the Van. derbllt fortune has not increased un der Its late master. Secondly, the family fortune is now split in two parts, whereas Alfred G. Vanderbilt came into possession of a net fortune of nearly $35,000,000, his two succes sors inheriting more than $15,000,000 apiece. They come into complete pos session -at tne age or 25. . The gross personal - estate of Cor nelius Vanderbilt, Sr, was valued by the official appraiser at $52,099,837.69. His real property added largely to mis sum. But while the will of Alfred G. Vanderbilt does not afford the opportunity of estimating the amount of his entire fortune, persons associated with the management and disposition of the estate declared to day that the will disposes of no more than $35,000,000. , ii . rirst Wife wot Mentioned. Mrs. Margaret' Emerson - Vanderbilt second wife of the Lusitanla victim, mother of the two young masters of the family fortunes comes into an out right inheritance of - $3.000,000 -$2.-000,000 in -lieu of her dower rights, which ehe relinquished at the time of the wedding, end $1,000,000 as a per sonal bequest. i, ; - She likewise receives the income during her life of a trust fund of $5, 000.000. This $0,000,000 is "to be be- nlith1 hv hff In hr will n Vor Issue. ' The apportionment is left to! her. The will makes no comment upon her possible re-marriage. The name of Mrs, Elsie French Van derbilt the - first wife, is not men tioned. It is. said that the settlement made upon' her at the time of her di vorce leaves her wholly satisfied. But her son, William H. Vander bilt receives la trust fund of $5,000, 000. ' The will of Cornelius Vanderbilt gave Alfred G. Vanderbilt power of apportionment over this fund. ; Koch Goes . to Boa. Mrs. . Margaret Kinersoa Vanderbilt receives the "Sagamore Lodge" camp, the "Moose river tract," comprising about 2000 acres in the AUtromlacka; the houseboat "Venture" and all her huabanda real and personal property in Kngland. 1 To his son. William II., to whom Mr. VaiTderbilt was deeply devoted, the famous coach "Venture." the por traits and busts bequeathed to Alfred G. Vanderbilt by his father and the gold medal voted by congress to the testator's greiat grandfather, Cornelius Vanderbilt at the close of the Civil War, are given. In addition-, William H. gets beauti ful "Oakland ' farm" at Newport, L. I. The farm and all that It contains are given to the executors ef the will to hold In' trust for the boy until he shall attain tho ago of 21, when they shall convey the property to him. The executors are directed to cre ate bl trust fund for the maintenance of the Newport property, W1en young William II. becomes 21thls fund is to become a part of tho residuary es tate. - -. - " Employes Kot rorgotten. To his brother, - Reginald, Mr. (Van derbilt leaves $500,000; to his uncle, Frederick W. Vanderbilt, $200,000; to Frederick M. Davies, his closest friend, who died on May 2", $500,000; to Charles El Crocker, bis private sec retary, $10,000, and to Howard Lock wood, a clerk in. his office, $1000. Nothing Is left to charity, Kach person employed on Oakland farm, Sagamore Lodgetor in Mr. Vanderbils London home, "Gloucester Houae," and who has been tin that employe five Consecutive years, gets an amount equivalent to his or her wages for the fifth year. " The will thus in a most simple man ner disposes of the entire estate. It was drawn up by Itoy C. Gasser, law associate of Henry B. Anderson. It is impossible to state Just how much the estate varies in value from that which Mr. Vanderbilt Inherited-,' Oave Brother 46,000,000. While nearly $10,000,000 is disposed of variously, it is figured that . the family fortune, which descends to Al fred Jr., and George Vaaderbilt, amounts to nearly, ! if not quite. $20, 000,000. When the official appraiser gets through "estimating -the personal; fortune of Mr, Vanderbilt it may de velop that the figure will dwindle a bit ' While Mrs.. Harry Payne Whitney, Gladys Vanderbilt Slid Reginald C. Vanderbilt daughters and -.son of Cornelius Vanderbilt Sr received $7,500,000 at the time Alfred G. be came master of the family fortune, Cornelius Jr., having incurred, the dis pleasure of his father because of his marriage to Grace .Wilson received only $1,500,000. To" prevent a contest of the will, Alfred Q. Vanderbilt gave his brother $6,000,000. The two main heirs George and Alfred G. Jr. come, into their one- quarter of their estate at the age of 21; one-quarter at the age of 25; one quarter at the age of 30 and the final Installment when they become 23 years of age. DISEASE OF RABIES DISCUSSED FROM AN EXPERT STANDPOINT Any '.Person Bitten Should Not Delay More Than Three Days Before; Treatment. !e:xplains the symptoms According to Professor Ptrnot Disease, ! 'Was Pirst Transmitted Here By Coyotes. - While there have been hundreds of cases of rabies among coyotes, cattle, sheep and dogs in eastern Oregon dur ing" the past year " it is probable that ft-w people in Portland know rabies when they see It or recognize it In an animal afflicted with it. Rabies is a peculiar disease and n ot the contagious rather than the in fectious family. It is confined ex clusively to the carnivorous animals, those which have teeth and bite. While most common to the coyotes, cattle, sheep and dogs, cases have even been known among rats, squirrels, pigs and not Infrequently human beings. Once the tllsea.ee is firmly estab lished in the system it is impoimlbl to Btamp It out and the victim dies. The treatment nlven Is not a cure but is only 'a preventative . and that treat ment is called the pasteur treatment, having had its origination In the fa mous Pasteur Institute of Paris. Professor K. F. Pernot, city bacterio logist, formerly state bacteriologist and prior to that a professor of Oregon Agricultural college, was the first man to discover rabies In Oregon. That was about four year ago while con nected with the state health board. Many Cases .Beporfed. ' Since that timri there have been hun dreds of cases of the disease. While in Portland there have been a few cases-many people have undergone the pasteur treatment hero after having been bitten by dogs or other animals elsewhere. . Acording to Professor Pernot, who probably knows an much about the dis ease as any man in the state trie dis ease was first transmitted here by coyotes coming over the line fronK California. These coyotes gave it t those of Eastern Oregon and they in turn have bitten sheep, cattle, dogs and other anml.als. Owing to the large number of com plaints and the herds of cattle lost through death by disease, the lent leg islature placed a hign bounty on all coyotes. It Is hoped ' to eventually stamp out the disease among those wild animals. by killing them. The moat recent ciiwe of rabies In a human "Being in Portland was that of Frank Griffith who waa bitten by hi own dog which had become mad. Later he died at one of the hospitals after suffering the acutest of pain. To pre vent any cases'thls year City-Health Officer Marceltns has endeavored to have the city council pass an ordinance requiring the muzzling of all dog. Unles thls is done and some of the dogs become infected with rubles it will be almost IinpoKslbl to Mmnp it out once It starts, as they v. ill con tinue to bite other animals until they die' of the djsf-aseor are killed, ac cording to Dr. Marcellus.' Portland had an example of this about a mouth ago when a mad dog bit aeveral cbll-' drsn la South Portlaipl and then In fected. doge owned by residents of the Rivera and Rlverdale district. Several of these dons died BlnCe and upon examination of their jbralns were found to havp'been afflicted with the disease. It i not known how many were bitteri" by the dog which waa flrst'mad but it is believed that there were fully 20 rep'rts made to the of flee of State Ifeaftli Ofrioer Calvin S. White and to City Health Officer Mar cellus. According to Dr. Marcellus there are two distinct types of the dlsoae. one kind will appear in On dog and on It bitting another the other type may appear. : "The furlbu rabies and the tljmb rabies are perhaps thesniost common.'' Said Dr. Marcellus yesterday. "In the case of the furious rHbles the animal usually die within three or four days after tho disease developes. ' "The dog having this type rushes, aboutfe blindly. rlng and snapping at everything tha't lie touches, it hnn a peculiar throaty bark which mnrk" It at once tin an abnormal one. . It will not eat while the fever U very hlph. "While the' disease developea many times within 10 days after the i!og has been bitten they often live lonstcr. The time cannot be definitely fUM. however. - A pftrwon or animal bitten by this animal In the furious "twte will, unlet-s prompt action la immed iately "taken, undoubtedly contract the diaeaee. , Once the disease has a foot hold there; Is no cure. !

"When any of these symptoms ap pear In a dog. It Is by all means ad visable to quarantine It for at least a week, and - avoid being bitten or scratched.

"Of all the diseases that man' or t-east la heir to, there in none so ter rible or Incurable as rablew.
