A nura ber of needed improvements are being made at the Dallas mill of the Willamette Valley Lumber company, chief among them being the building of a new dry kiln. Work on the kiln was aunaii Monday and about three months' time will be required to complete It. This new addition will add to the drying capacity of the mill about 25 per cent. The new kiln makes the fifth that will be in operation at the mill, each with a capacity of about 15,000 feet of lumber per day. Lack of storage room for dry lumber has alo been a consider able handicap to the mill's pro duction and to offset this a new storage Bhed is now being con structed which will have a capac ity of 100,000 feet of dry lumber A new conveyor system in the planing mill has also been decided upon and work has been started This will be used in conveying the waste fuel, the old system having . been found inadequate for present day needs. It is the intention of the management to lay new planks over the entire mill yard as soon as the inclement weather sets in Time to Face the Facts "So much has been said against tha use of patent medicines that I have had a strong prejudice against them. But after four years doctoring with six different doc tors, without results, for acute in digestion, gastritis, constipation, appendicitis and other ailments, I was said to possess, I was en couraged to try Mayr's Wonder ful Remedy, seeing what it had luua far. a .friend similarly af flicted. I also was entirely re lieved of my trouble, and am sure 'his medicine will do all and more than is claimed for it." It Is a sim- lile. harmless preparation that re moves the catarrhal mucus from the Intestinal tract and allays the Inflammation which causes prac tically all stomach, liver and in Vstinal ailments, including ap pendicitis.

(adv) Atlanta, Ga., Sept. 22. itu Klux klansmen in Georgia are on the verge of open rebellion in con sequence of a published statement by James L. Beavers', Atlanta chief of police ana candidate for mayor, that Edward Young Clarke, acting Imperial wizard, has com pleted negotiations with Marcus Garvey, New York negro, to admit negroes Co membership in the or der. Chief Beavers reiterated his statement In a public speech today quoting an interview with Clarke, written August 15. In this inter view Clarke was quoted as saying that the ""'negro question as ceased to be," and that "the klan is not fighting the Jew, but is try ing to get the Gentile to take on some of the traits of tha Jews." The full interview was printed here, and has not been repudiated by Clarke. At the Atlanta city hall, which is a hot-bed of Ku Kluxlsm, lead era openly stated that Clarke had "played hell" and that it would henceforth be "impossible to keep the boys of the South together." Even among the imperial family there was an under-current of dis sension at Clarke's interview. Atlanta negroes are treating the subject lightly." Negro leaders here assert that no matter how many negotiations Clarke and Garvey may engineer, members of the race In this part of the coun try will steer clear of the klan. A meeting of Atlanta klansmen to discuss the most sensational klan developments here in months has been called for Monday, it was learned. A9x ANorHed Poor?

Bing ham and Percy R. Kelly, Marion county circuit judges, yesterday, enjoining Secretary of State Koz er from giving a place on the No vember ballot to the grange grad uated Income tax measure. The decision in the income tax case was reached after a hearing in Multnomah county during which 365 witnesses testified to the reprehensible conduct of pe tition circulators in this district A transcript of all testimony per taining to the frauds has been ordered by Stanley Myers, district attorney, and law violations will be placed before the grand Jury. "Governor Olcott undoubtedly will revoke the notarial commis sions of these men," declared Mr. Myers last night, "and vigorous prosecutions will follow any in dictments. Unfortunately, the ini tiative law is rather vague in pro viding means for punishment of such offenders, but the last legis- lature furnished a new line of ap proach by means of which I hope to put some of these notaries be hind the bars." Of the 14,369 signatures on the petitions filed with the secretary of state, 1108 in excess of the number of names required by law 10 place It on the ballot, 3837 were certified to by notaries pub nc wno declared they knew of their own knowledge that the signers were legal voters, points out tne decision of Judges Bing- nara ana Kelly.

Hope that "all available means be used by this country to put an end to unspeakable atrocities" causing suffering to Chrisians in eastern lands was expressed in a resolu tion adopted yesterday by the house of deputies of the Pro testant Episcopal church in the United States, in general conven tion here. This supplements action of sim ilar nature taken by the house of bishops, and places the convention squarely behind a demand for ac tion by the United States govern ment in the matter. The deputies, by a rising vote adopted a resolution extending sympathy to the bereaved families of the miners lost in the Argonaut mine. Ratification or rejection of an amendment tightening the divorce law of the church was before the house of deputies. The change approved by the bishops, which makes the law explicit in forbid ding communicants marrying di vorced persons ' except ,in cases where a divorce has been granted on grounds of infidelity, was on the house calendar, but consider ation of. other matters delayed the opening of the discussion. A prelude came in the morning session when the request of the diocese of Oregon, presented by Rev. E. T. Simpson of Corvallis, that a brief statement of the mar riage and divorce laws of the church be printed in the prayer book was rejected by the deputies Rev. Simpson argued that many persons were familiar with these church laws and often were not informed of them until they were on the verge of violating them. He protested against the convention legislating on such important mat ters and leaving no other record than in the journal. The house of bishops in execu tive session yesterday balloted. for election of missionary bishops for eastern Oregon and Haiti. The re sults were certified to the deputies who will act on them in executive session this morning. JAPS SEEKTO Harrisburg, Or., Sept. 21. 'The double golden wedding anniver sary of Mr. and Mrs. W.
