CHINESE EGGS MISSING Kecord Snows, Declares Speaker, That Ho Xnunber or Snlagles Bare Corns Trom Canada Is Xiagt 10 Tears. Sherwood, Or., Sept. 2. "No lumber or shingles have come into Oregon from Canada for the last 10 years, and the attempt made about two years ago to bring In butter and eggs from China was such a failure that it has not been repeated since." Thomas C. Burke, collector of cus toms at Portland, made these state ments at a meeting of the Woodrow Wilson league held Saturday night, and based them upon the records of his of fice at Portland. y Walter L. Tooze had been at Sher wood a week before, and while here had told his audience that the influx of Canadian lumber was forcing the lum ber manufactured by the local mills orr the market and causing the mills to close. President Is Assailed. Tooze also said that Chinese butter and eggs were driving the Oregon rancher out of business. He' also as sailed President Wilson for not send ing an army Into Mexico to subdue that country. Judge Burke in his address met the first two of these charges with official refutation from the records of the cus toms house, and In answering the third he called attention to the fact that the two sons of Mr. Tooze are attending Harvard university and were not with the soldier boys on the Mexican border. The recprds of the customs house show, ' said Judge Burke, "that no lum ber or shingles have come into Oregon from Canada for the last 10 years and that the attempt about two years ago to bring butter and eggs from China was such a failure that it has not been repeated since, and those who favor war with Mexico are not wearing uni forms. Mr. Tooze has two sons of mil itary age at Harvard so the warlike spirit he jdisplayed was manifestly in tended for those outside of his family." Country Is Prosperous. One old time Republican was heard to say after the meeting that if the Hughes' campaign requires a misstate ment of facts in order to win, Wilson is good enough for him. "He is good enough anyway," said he, "for we are at peace, and the coun try is so darned prosperous that with record prices for nearly everything we have to sell, our only difficulty Is in getting cars and ships enough to carry our stuff to market. The contrast In the times between what they are now and what they were several years ago, brings to mind the celebrated reply of William Howard Taft, when he Was president, to the question asked him when hundreds of thousands of, people were walking the streets and highways looking for work. 'What would you do. Mr. President. If you had no - money Sfltii jSSttfcfi ,rf, I . SSJMM . .lUiiiNPi M 1 . ii. j . ,i I- al What's There? Whole wheat is sweet, but when you add the zest of malted barley you have a flavor that no food made of wheat alone possesses. The famous food, Grape-Nuts, has a de lightful taste that everybody likes, and it lies in the magic of the malt Then, too, malted bailey contains, besides its great nourishing qualities, a digestive which makes Grape-Nats food particularly satisfying to weak, as well as strong stomachs.

East St. Louis, 111 . Sept. 2t. (I- N. E.) -Mrs. Joseph F. Seymour, one time Progressive, who wrote the campaign song that was dedicated to Theodore Roosevelt, and sung at the Progres sive convention in 1912, has announced her intention 1 of working and votiag for Woodrow Wilson. "Mr. Wilson's ideals," she say. "are nearer, far nearer the Ideals of the Progressives than anything Mr. Hughes and his supporters have been able to put forth. The Republicans offer no remedy for the ills which they assert hang over the country and hold no promise of constructive legislation. I feel sure that every thinking Progres sive woman feels as I do. "They all look to President Wilson to carry out the Progressive party's constrictive legislation ana conse quently may be depended upon to cast their votes November 7. for Woodrow Wiljo'n."
