Stockholm, July 30. Men and wo
men of nearly every nationality, color
and language, but animated by a com
mon humanitarian motive, the abo
lition of war, met In the Swedish capi
tal today to Inaugurate the eighteenth
Universal Peace Congress. The de
liberations of the friends of peace will
continue through the first five days of
next week. -
Although primarily a convention of
delegates from the five hundred peace
societies now In existence in various
parts of the world, the congress has
also enrolled representatives of trade
and labor unions, churches, civic and
philanthropic societies and education
id Institutions. It was origlnallv in
tended to hold the eighteenth congress '
in this city last year, but It was post- '
poned on account of a strike which
threatened to develop Into civil war. i
Among those scheduled to deliver:
addresses are Baroness von Suttner of'
Austria and Pignor Moneta of Italy,'
both recipients of the noble peace j
prize; the eloquent Senator La Fon- '
taine, or Belgium: Joseph G. Alex- j
under of England, and Prof. Quidde of J
Germany. '
Topics to be considered during the!
congress include the effect of the j
probable establishment of an arbitral
court of justice; the possibility of an!
international agreement for the limit-j
atlon of armaments, as foreshadowed ;
In former President Roosevelt's noble'
address; the Immunity from capture
of merchant ships at sea during time'
of war, a measure that would do away'
with the necessity of naval protection!
for commerce, nnd therefore greatly!
reduce armaments; the removal from
the category of war of questions of j
national honor, and the growing de- j
mand for treaty provisions pledging'
the nations not to take territory from
each other by conquest
Reports were presented today on
an International federation, a public
international code, an international re. i
lief fund, and new ideas for adoption
by the third Hague conference. i
GRANDE RON HE CROP
OF WHEAT IS GOOD
j tonight with a parade and final per-I-a
Grande, Ore. In all parts of the formance of 2000 United States sol
valley harvesters and threshing Is now ' diers. All records fu' attendance at
proceeding without a hitch. Contrary '
tn the previous expectations, the grain
yield will be almost uy to the usual'
standard, although the past season I
has been notoriously dry. In many
places the crops have matured without
a drop -of rain. Reports received yes
terday show that in almost all cases
the fall sown grain will give an out
put about the same as In the average
year, and an encouraging tiling is that
a large proportion of the spring sown
grain gives good prospects of an aver
age yield. This Is very encouraging in
view of the adverse weather conditions
of the past few months.
Lee Smith was In from lower Cove
preparing for heading which he will
begin today. He has no complaint to
offer as to the condition of fall sown
grain and Is also encouraged over the
condition of the spring sown fields.
His report Is similar to that of manylP:ted matters Mr. Maloney will have
other extensive grain growers of the i
valley.

admired by men who appreciate new

says the Weston Leader. His dump
nets are so arranged that the wagons
are emptied into the automatic hoe
down by engine power. One man only
Is needed to keep the separator fed
with straw, and takes the place of five
formerly used. The attachment works
like a charm and Mr. Key's outfit Is
said to be well worth a visit for the
purpose of seeing it In operation.

,1a ui lc Ready to March Into Dis
iluptcd Kingdom,
Rome, July 30. Monsignm- Vico,
papal nuncio to the Spanish court,
was recalled this afternoon by the
pope. This action followed the recall
of Ambassador Emilie peojeda from
the Vatican by King Alfonso. This
completely severs relations between
Spain and the Vatican. This open
rupture it is believed, foreshadows
the downfall of the .Spanish dynasty.
The recalls today are the result of a
long fight over the question as to
whether the state and church should
have equal power.
King Alfonso favors the supremacy
of the state. With thousands in in
dustrial turmoil this action today will
probably precipitate trouble and give
the revolutionists their long-awaited
chance. Don Jamie is encamped on
the border with 10,000 exiles and has
issued appeal to Spaniards to join h'.m
on his march into Spain and civil
war seems certain,
"v Praise for Alfonso.
Madrid. Ju y 30. The abrupt sev
erance of friendly relations of Spain
with the Vatican brings King Alfonso
l.i the front in European policies to
day. Opponents who doubted the sin
ctr ty of the young king's anti-religious
actions are now praising him.
Marquis Emilia Deojeda. the Spanish
ambassador to the Vatican, :s expect
ed to return his credentials to the
pope and return immediately to Spain.
This would mark a complete sever
ance of relations which arc now vir
tually broken.
Consternation in Madrid.
San Sebnstin, July 30. The recall i f
the Pupal Nuncio and the severance
of relation wit the Vatican has caus
ed consternation at the capital. Radi
cal clericals are predicting the over

issued for the military to be ready to
occupy Madrid. The roy.n family is
closely guarded.

MALONEY IS BOOMED
FOR COUNTY JUDGE
J. V. Makmey for county judge.
This is the l.uest polithul gossip in
the city and county and it is a subject
which during the past few days has
been taken up with much enthusiasm
by the friends of the ix-bunker and
pnsent day farmer. Just how the
boom started does not seem clear but
according to those who have investl-
'"eided strength if he cares to make
the race for county judge. Though he
Is a democrat he will draw hundreds
of republican votes, so it is asserted.
because he Is popular with an classes.
I'p to this time Mr. Maloney has not
said whether or not he will be a enn-
btsy looking after his wheat crop and
i has been in town but little. He has
j di voted his time to farming since he
! resigned ns cashier of the American
national bank. Mr. Maloney served
: for two terms as county recorder and
i according to his friends left an envi
able record ns an official.

MEXICAN FIELD PEAS
GROW WELL IN KLAMATH
Klamath Falls, Ore. The experi
ments being made in Klamath coun
ty soil in the growing of Mexican
field peas has proved a great success
so far, and those having planted them
believe this product is destined to be
one among the principal products of
the country when the people find
that they will grow successfully here.
These peas start in developing the
pods early in the season, and contin
ue to bloom and grow new pods until
the frost catches them In the fall.
These pods will remain on the vines
until they are all ready to gather or
the farmer is forced to gather them
by the stoppage of their growth by
the fall frosts and cold weather. They
are then cut and threshea and the
seed is very valuable for the market..
If not threshed, they are considered
among the best fattening reed for all
kinds of stock that can be fed. They
are especially good for hogs and can
be fed on the vine, the animals shell
ing out the seed themselves. Both
the vines and the pods are devoured
by cattle and horses and they are far
ahead of alfalfa as a feed.
F. E. Smith has 10 acres of Mexi
can peas under surface irrigation, 18
acres on dry land and about 3 acres
that are being sub-irrigated. He In
tends to make a thorough test of the
growing qualities of the soil with and
without water. He says while the
vines on the Irrigated lands are larger
than those on dry land, he believes
the dry land peas will bear the heavi
est. This' is the first year that these
peas have been grown In this vicinity.
Last spring a carload of the seed was
brought from Colorado and distribut
over the country to the farmers who
would experiment with them. Re
ports come from men who planted
them that the outlook for an immense
crop is good.
Mexican field peas are very valu
able in the market. They bring on
ar average 4 cents a pound, and an
acre of them will produce from 40
to 60 bushels. If this climate and soil
proves to be adapted to their giowth
it is safe to say this is one of the
most profitable crops the farmer can
grow.
