PROCLAMATION Salem, Oregon, October 10, 1917. Whereas, the American people have set themselves the task of raising a second Liberty Loan of from three to five billion dollars. Twentieth century war requires vast sums of money. The requirements are far beyond what the wealthiest country can raise by taxation. The great nations of Europe have been at war for three years. They have floated loan after loan successfully. It is unthinkable that this coun try should fail with its second loan, six months after the declaration of war; and Whereas, failure to provide the necessary money would mean failure properly to provision and equip our troops. An army insufficiently equipped and supplied is led to unavailing slaughter. We owe to those who are to do the fighting to stand behind them loyally , to give them everything which will add to their efficiency and bring nearer the day of vic tory. Let us not fight this war half-heartedly, with one hand behind our backs. Let us fight it manfully in a manner worthy the best traditions of the Re public; and Whereas, Oregon's share of the fund required is sixteen and a half to twenty-four million dollars. This is a sum too large to be raised without the co operation of the whole people. Every Oregonian with an income should consider it a duty and a priv ilege to purchase one or more bonds, in proportion to his means. The government asks us not to con tribute, but to invest. There is no safer investment in the world than a loan to the United States; Now, Therefore, by virtue of the authority in me vested, as Governor of the State of Oregon, 1, James Withycombe, Governor, do hereby proclaim the week of October 14 to 20, 1917, as Patriotic Week. Oregon has thus far responded to every appeal. We have given the flower of our young manhood. Let us not be a sordid people. Let us not place greater store by our money than by our men. If our peoDle can only be aroused to the necessities of the situation, we can not fail to have the cooperation which will spell success. In Testimony Whereof, I have hereunto set my hand and caused the Seal of the State of Oregon to be hereunto affixed, this 10th day of October, A. D., 1917. JAMES WITHYCOMBE, Governor.

L GET INCREASE WHIUI.WI.ND CAMPAIGN' FOIl SAI.K OF ST I'D K XT UODY TICK KTS UKI.NGS $101 TO TRF.AS- litV IN 13 MIXITKS. After a 15-mlnute campaign held yesterday morning nt the high school it was found that $101 worth of stu dent body tickets had been sold to the members ot the various classes Approximately 100 per cent of the three upper clusses subscribed and over half of the freshmen.

FUNDS CLINGEN LOSES E SUIT UNANIMOUS VERDICT BY JURY.

A. Eastes and Chief of Police L. A. W. Nixon returned a unan- Imous verdict of not guilty. The jurors were out approximately an hour and a half. The verdict of not guilty rendered in the $10,000 damage suit against Judge Eastes and Chief Nixon was the climax of a civil suit which lasted an entire day and a half. Vernon A. Forbes and District Attorney H. H. De Armond represented the defense and N. G. Wallace, ot Prlneville, the plaintiff. The suit involved an ar rest made in March, 1916, which Clingen charged was without legal warrant. A Jury for the trial of Fred Kas- prowitz was selected this afternoon. The complaint is based on at attempt to commit a crime. The case will proceed as soon as the 12 men have been picked. This is the third one on the docket of the circuit court.. Judge Ka-stes On Stand. Judge Eastes was on the stand several hours during yesterday after noon and evening. He recounted the arrest of Jackson Clingen for the theft of the tent belonging to Nick welder. According to the story, Clingen was fined $10 for costs and given four days' time in which to pay it. The man failed to appear and Judge Eastes issued a warrant for his arrest for contempt of court. Chief Nixon was sent after Clingen but was not given the warrant. When he was brought to court and refused to pay, after the time allowed had expired, he was confined to Jail until someone else paid the money. Chief Nixon supplemented this story with a description of his ex periences with Clingen. He stated that Clingen had shown him money sutficient to more than cover the . fine but preferred to go to jail. His wife was permitted to visit him and had come and remained all day, even to bringing her lunch. She offered to bail him out but Clingen asked ber not to do this and waited sev eral days before deciding to pay the fine himself. Snys Jail Condition Good.
