Marion county has a celery king.
He is a ran of the Japanese empire
and has the musical name of Kawag
uehi.
The little kingdom of this regal
agricultural Jap spreads over about
30 acres of fertile soil of Lake La
bish. Twenty-three acres of this
tract is planted to celery.
A view of the estate assures one
that a master hand rules here. Long
straight rows of fresh, plume-like
celery extend in parallel lines across
the field. The entire tract Is kept
as neat and orderly as a parlor.
Kawaguehi is making shipments of
celery now. Each day about 250
doz.n the .product nicely
wrapped and crated are forwarded
from the station at Quinably. Very
little of the celery is sold on the
Pacific coast. About all the consign
ments are forwarded through to Du

points where th,e Iake Labish prod

That the celery grown by Kawa
uchl is eqnal if not superior to the
offerings from Michigan Is proven
from the fact that, in the open mar
ket in thos cities, the Oregon cel
ery is commanding the top quota
tions. How does Kawaguehi grow this
tall, crisp celery. He grows it nix
ing brains with the much land on
his tract. He is an educated Japan
ese. He pursued his studies in Ja
pan as far as instruction was there
provided. He then came to Califor
nia where he graduated from the
state universitv at Berkeley.
Kawaguehi is as careful in the
management of his business affairs
as he is in the cultivation of his ac
reage. He keeos in close touch with
market quotations and ratings and

E. L. Rogers, station agent at

of celery are sent out through bis

by Kawaguehi and the remainder

tonight that the workers would nol
withdraw. The p-vsidenfs message.

purposes for which the conference
was convened, emphasizes the ur
gency of tbe need for allaying In
dustrial unrest, and makes a plea
for rurthr work on the part of the

The morning session lasted only
a few minutes and the afternon
meeting, during which quick action
was obtained, was not convened tin
til five o'clock The entire day was
devoted to group meetings in an at
tempt to devise anotherdeclaration
on ol!etive bargaining, satisfactory
to all elements. Arter more tban
three days or aln-ost continuous ses
sions, the employers were unable to
agree upon another statement and
fell back upon the Wheler substi
tute. Members of the public group at
tempted to effect a compromise by
the- substitution of words "associ
ation ot their own choosing, Tor
'trade and labor unions." in the
clause or the group's resolutions
guaranteeing workers the right to
organize, and the; five labor repre
sentatives on the general committee
of 15 spent two hours in ioint meet
ing with the house group explaining
labor's objections to the change.
This amendment was introduced by
Mr. Chadboe:ne but the hou;e group
alone voted favorably.

When the original Uusw 11-Kndl-
cott resolution came up for discus
sion in the conference, Samuel Gom
pers. president of the American Fed-,
eration of Labor, declared that the
withdrawal of the support of the pub
lie group was due to an interpola
tion of the words "trade and labor
unions' by une meirbor of the group
who is allayed with organized labor
and that the-phrase excludes all but

One disturbing element in this

ers was the fact that they had heard

closely the language of one present
ed in the senate during the day by
Senator McCumber, Republican
North Dakota, which in turn was in
almost trie exact language which
President Wilson announced in his
Cheyenne, Wyo., address, would b
regarded by him "as a rejection of
the treaty."
Behind the majority's proposals, it
is, declared by their 'sponsors, will
stand all of the 49 Republicans and
at l?ast six Democrats, leaving as a
maximum 41 Democrats opposing
them. In these circumstances, the
administration managers were told
their only hope of defeating the pro
gram was to vote against ratification
after the reservations have been pnt
in the ratification resolution. Some
of; t!ie Democrats want to pursue
that course and the general predict
ion tonight was that committee ac

to give the administration forces
day or two to think the matter over.

Two Boys Found in Alley
Tell Conflicting Stories
Otficer W. J. White at a late hour
Monday night noticed two lads in the
alley back of the bicycle shop of A.
II. Moore and arrested the pair. The
two youths. Fred Lyons, 16. and Tom
McLaughlin. 19. told very conflicting
stories concerning their presence
tbere at that time of night. Lyons
told the officers that he lives In Ten
dleton and Information was asked of
Pendleton officers by wire. Sherirf
T. D. Taylor of Tendleton wired that
no knowledge of the residence of Ly
ons in -Pendleton was available. A
friend of McLaughlin's appeared at
the police station with the Informa
tion that the lad's home was at In
dependence. McLaughlin later ad
mitted this and agreed to return to
his home If released.
The pair first attempted to explain
their presence In the" alley by claim
ing they were afraid of the police.
Later they told the officers that they
had arrived in Salem in. company
with a third man whom they de
scribed as a crook and ot whom they
professed great fear. Not much cred
ence Is given this story.
