Klamath Falls. June 21. The days
when K'amath county was merely a po-
litical unit of Oregon are passing. With
Its. great jlmber, agricultural and live
stock Industries It is, through the "de
velopment of a state highway system,
becoming in reality a worthy part of the
state. Its earnest desire to have com
' munication ' and commercial relations
with the rest of the state is based not
. alone on sentiment but is manifested in
. the practical way of tendering its avail
able funds for expenditure on the state
- roads within Its boundaries. .
At the recent special election the
Voters of the county decided by an over
whelming majority to issue bonds to the
- . . C . m n it rrAA rpui. .. .i I.
i the addition of a few thousand dollars
j already In the treasury, is to be turned
,over to the state highway department
to be expended In cooperation with the
1 ! state and federal government on the
' main trunlc roads of the county, con
' i nectlng it on the south with the Call-
1 fornla system, on 'the west with the
i Pacific highway, on the north forming a
j link in The Dalles-California highway
..and on the east joining with its neigh
bor. Lake county. To bring about this
result half a million dollars will be ex
' pended out of the Joint county,, state
and federal fund. Besides an appro-
i priation of $50,000 is expected from the
: i tribal fund of the Klamath Indians in
, view of the fact that The Dalles-Call-,
fornia highway and the Lakeview road
'cross the reservation.,
13(3,000 TO BE TUB5TED OTIB
The condition on which the county 4s
to turn over $352,000 to the state 1 is
that the money is to be applied to the
following roads :
The Dalles-California highway, $163,
.000. Klamath falls to California boundary,
, $59,645.
' Klamath Falls to Lakeview. $77,618.
Klamath Falls to Ashland. $40,000.
On the, Lakeview-Bend road a small
('corner of Klamath county is intersect
. 1 ed and therefore the county will appro
i priate $11,000 for this road.
t Taking up the roads to be improved,
i the one leading to California will pass
I through the most highly developed irri
gated district of , the county. It will
.traverse, the Tule lake country via the
towns of Merrill and Malln and will
have a total mileage of 38 miles. There
is 'aJ re-ad v a well rrsded eountv road
f I which Is to be . macadamized after it
ihau been shortened about two mile by
'the elimination of right angled turns.
. (cOVEBXJjHTTTa:'Aip ' t
The improvement' is ", a - post road
'project, the "federal government bearing
SO 'per cent of the cost and the state
i and county the other 50 per cent. The
estimate of cost is approximately $213,
000. Of this amount; the county Is to
' contribute $70,000. The survey is about
complete and it is expected to call soon
I for construction bids.
- Outside of its importance as a county
road, this highway, which reaches the
California boundary and runs toward
Alturaa. will have an attraction for tour-
. lists from . the fact that, after crossing
the California line it passes through the

Boiler Circulator
Is Installed Now
On Many Engines
"Boiler Circulator and Cleaner" is the
name given to an invention of D. F.
McGIll, now proprietor of he Enamel
Bake Ovens, Fourteenth and Surnside
streets. The device has been adopted by
many of the largest., manufacturing
plants of Oregon and several of the
steamship companies. Locally the Sarah
Dixon, No Wonder, Shaver, Henderson
and Cascades steamers have had it in
stalled, and the boilers in the court
house and Selling building are equipped
with , it- It has been introduced on the
Sound, and six of Spokane's Industries
have it attached to their boilers. In
brief, Mr. McOill claims for it that it
stops pitting and corroding, saves fuel,
prevents the formation of scale, lessens
danger of blistering the boiler, assures
a perfect circuauon within the, boiler,
increases the capacity of boiler and
engine, causes removal of old scale from
boiler, prevents priming and foaming if
caused by water conditions, prevents
grit and i dirt from being carried over
to the engine cylinders, saves lubrica
tion, packing, time and consequent an
noyance in keeping engine in repair, re
moves all suspended matter from the
water, including mud, organic matter,
oil and scale forming salts; will neu
tralize acids and automatically remove
scale-forming salts from the boiler, etc

building; A. C. Larsen, chief engineer
for Nickum & Kelly, and others, write
of the invention in the strongest terms.
PREPAREDNESS FOR
WAR ON PACIFIC IS
SOUGHT BY PHELAN
Declares Orient Is Sore Sopt of
World and Japanese Cannot
Be Compromised With.
Washington, June 21. Senator Phelan
of California, as witness today before
the house immigration committee, de
clared that America, must be prepared
for a "war on the Pacific" and demand
ed legislation which would bar immigra
tion of Japanese.
"The sore spot of the world is ihe
orient." Phelan said. "It is a place to
be watched for eventualities. Our fu
ture wars will be on the Pacific . and
not on the Atlantic ocean.
"The Huns have come the Huns of
he east. Those Japanese are not tr
be compromised jwith ; . they must . be
driven out like 'a plague of locusts,
which they equal in economic destruc
tiveness." C02TDITIOK8 UNBEARABLE '
- Conditions in the agricultural area of
the , Pacific states ' daily -are becoming
unbearable, Phelan . declared. - He re
ported - "thousands of cases" of men
who had gone with their families to
California and purchased land only to i
find in a year or two- that theyL were !
surrounded by "despicable neighbors,
who recognized no standards of civiliza
tion or living." .All the Japanese seek
is money and there has been no limit
to which they would go to increase their
world stores, the California senator as
serted. Replying to questions regarding al
leged Japanese encroachment in Mexico
and South America, Phelan continued :
"They are buying oil leases in Mexico.
They are buying great tracts of land.
They are a part and parcel of the Car
ranza machine. ' - And some day j, the
Mexican problem and the Japanese -will
be onfe and the same." -y .
8ATS DA27GEB GBATE
Phelan said one' of the gravest dan
gers -confronting his state from -ah eco
nomic standpoint was the "effort of the
Japanese to gain control of land." He
declared few of them would go in -the
field of -open labor, preferring to 'en
gage in business for themselves. :
A statewide hatred of the Japanese is
arising among union labor, Phelan re
ported. Labor, he said, felt that the
Japanese would not affect it directly,
but "as the Japanese influence has
spread and demoralized and driven out
whole communities of white men and
their families, labor has awakened."
He deplored the "gentleman's "agree
ment" existing between. - the United
States and Japan which' permits the
bringing in of "picture brides." He de
clared immigration laws to check ; the
spread of the menace "certainly ; must
come if our whole Pacific, coast is not
to be overrun."
AWAY GOOD
HINGS
Oregon Factories
Will Be Listed in
Industry Directory
The Associated Industries of Oregon,
A. G. Clark, manager, is preparing,
manufacturer's- directory covering Jill
the industries of the state. To accomp
lish this and in an effort to have the
list correct, Mr. Clark, about two weeks
ago, malied a questionnaire to between
500 and 600 manufacturers. It asked
for the name -of the industry, its loca
tion, sales office, its line of manufac
ure and its officers. ' Inclosed was a self
addressed envelope, yet up to' this time
only about half the concerns have made
reply. As there will be no advertising
in the directory the entire cost of .its
publication will be paid by the local as
sociation and the State Chamber of
Commerce, and that the expense may be
as light as possible Mr. Clark is anxious
that those '.receiving the questionnaire
mail to him the Information the asso
ciation requests, so it will not be put
to the expense of sending a messenger
after it. It is desired to make the direc
tory thoroughly complete and accurate.
It cannot be without the cooperation of
manufacturers, and it would seem that
inasmuch as no charge is made for the,,
insertion of the information the least
the management of the industries can do
is to supply it. Mr. Clark wants to send
the book to press at the earliest possi
ble time, and this procrastination of fac
to rymen is retarding the work.
E
Portland Man Devises - Several
Appliances to Cure Evils of
High Heels and Pointed Toes.
"The high heel and the pinched toe
have accomplished much," says W. S.
Phelps, proprietor of a shoe repair shop
at 269 Taylor street. "They have done
somewhat for the American foot, as the
bandages of the Orient for the pedals of
the dainty Chinese. limping along the
street in evident distress. -Watch the
women, particularly, and their walk will
tell you that they are in misery. See
them when not walking, standing first
upon one and then on the other foot.
Their feet are creating , agony. They
are not affording thes comfort the com
mon sense, low heeled, broad toed foot
wear does. Corns and bunions are In
cubated. They become real menaces. In
steps are .disfigured. Nature has been
tampered with. It has been wronged.
The unnatural foot results. Its posses
sor is out of harmony with the fitness
of things, and there must be a remedy.
It has been difficult to find. Remedies
have been applied in vain. The dis
tracted person has not been benefited.
"With these conditions in mind I- set
myself to work to originate a cure for
the foot disease, but. of course, not for
the mind which would bow to the fol
lies of fashion which created the cause.
I have therefore patented and am man
ufacturing what I have named the Com
mon Sense , Foot Arch, for the instep.
Hundreds of afflicted persons now are
wearing this device, .and Its success led
me to invent and likewise manufacture
a line of metatarsil supports, bunion
protectors and ankle braces. These
contrivance are of leather and so ar
ranged that they support the arch and
prevent the sore places (bunions or cal
louses on the bottom of the foot. If lo
cated there), from coming in contact
with the shoe. The weight of the body
is transferred to unused parts of the
foot, and in time it becomes normal
again. My success in this line has been
marked. Two years ago the Common
Sense Foot Appliance company scarcely
was known. -Now great numbers are
comforted by use of my inventions and
bless the day they were brought forth."
Mr. Phelps has his inventions on sale
in stores in all the large cities of the
coast: They are having wide distribu
tion. FIRE ESCAPE IS
SIMPLE AND CHEAP
Cost About 10 Per Cent of Pres
ent Style and Efficiency Great;
Buildings Are Not Disfigured.
Here is a patented fire escape which
can be constructed at a cost of about
10 per cent of that entailed in the pres
ent style which we see disfiguring the
walls, of the buildings of the present
day. It is the invention of D. A. Mc
Coy of Miller, .South Dakota, is brought
here by him and exhibited In the of
fice of H. B. Dyer. 610 Chamber of
Commerce. The contrivance is so simple
as to cause wonder that it had not been
thought of before, and so cheap as to
place it within the reach of even private
residences. Bolts with an eye at one
end penetrate the wall of the building,
and a brass or galvanized iron rod, one
for each two or three stories, is used.
Except in case of fire this may be
turned against the wall and be scarcely
perceptible. If a fire be discovered the
occupants of a room or building can
throw the window up, reach out the
hand, turn the fire escape rod out, grasp
pit and slide down to safety identically
as a fireman slides down the pole at a
fire station. That it might not blister
the hands one could cover the . palms
with a pocket'- handkerchief, a pillow
slip or sheet or any other thing he
found convenient. With a fire threatening-
one's life, the selection of a cov
ering for the palms of the hands would
speedily be made. The flight -to safety
would be so much faster than by . the
old ladder route as to, Mr. McCoy says,
make his invention a universal favorite
were'its merits generally known. It is
the opinion of Mr. McCoy that the day
wijl come when his style of escape will
be adopted by cities, and on large build
ings several instead of one will be
placed. H. B. Dyer and Mr. McCoy
are brothers-in-law, and the former may
have' the device manufactured here..
Mr. McCoy and B. A. Unsley. rich
farmers of South Dakota, are touring
the coast on a pleasure jaunt. - Like
thousands of others they were charmed
with the scenic beauties of the Co
lumbia river highway. . v. i:

. "I have been In the piano and musical
Instrument business for 20 years," Mr.
Wakefield says. "For several ? years X
have been experimenting- with : phono4
graphs, with a purpose of clarifying the
voice and effecting, more natural, clear
and distinct enunciation. It was my
desire to, if possible,' dispense with that
"tin sound of . the voice, and have it
emanate, as it were, from the chest of
the singer, or speaker, as it-ought, and,
not from the throat or Hps as is the
case with the phonograph of the presents
It always has ben supposed that the(
sound from the needle passed on to the
sound chamber through the hollow arm
tone tube, and to the ear through that
chamber. I proved the first surmise in
correct by corking up the hollow in the
arm to which the needle is attached. I
discovered that the sound ' traveled to
the sound chamber almost as perfectly
as before the hollow in the ' tone arm
was stopped, therefore the sound must
be. conveyed to the sound chamber by
the metal in the 'arm itself. I also
found that the base of the tone arm was
fastened to the deck of the phonograph
and wondered if this was best, or should
It penetrate , the deck and convey the
sound - directly to the - sound chamber.
And .would it not benefit the - voice If
the walls of the sound chamber were of
heavier construction than that of the
thin veneer of which they were built?
I 'therefore adopted three-quarter, inch
spruce for the walls of the sound cham
ber, and find that, with the change of
the sound arm, the effect is precisely
what I desired. The- voice is clear,
enunciation perfect, and . the sound . of
greater volume than before."
Mr. Wakefield has given the name
Cremona to this new idea phonograph;
and the Valentine Manufacturing com
pany has abandoned the manufacture
of toys and Is 'devoting Itself to the
production of this new Invention. Up to
this time about 25 .have been completed,
all of which are spoken for. One goes
to Los Angeles.
Says Change Made
Charles Coopey, the well known tailor
and manufacturer of military uniforms,
in his advertisement the other day, men
tioned the Sellwood woolen mills, and
his copy was changed to worsted mills,
the splendid institution now in opera
tion in that part of the city. This latter
was an error. Mr. Coopey says. He says
he had no intention of making reference
to the worsted mills.

COOPEY SAYS:
They of tea say to him. "Why do jou want to expose these crooked
deals that occurred years esof It only hurts bnsinesa by doinc st.
and what do yoa mas:, out of it? Force! it and let tt so." Let us
ae. what on. of America's beat. Colonel Roosevelt, has to say on that.
The ex -president urged the necessity of oontl oniric th. fight against
dishonest business methods, no matter what the immediate result to
business and commercial interests may be. He said:
"If business is hurt by atern exposure of crookedness
- and th. result of efforts to punish crooked men, then
. .' business most be hurt, eren though good and honest
men may suffer."
What has Bart badness the most, crooked deals or the exposure
of them, end besides, which is right? Our churches preach truth,
then why be afraid of it t But dollars, oh, dollars i
