Renewed Efforts of Solic
itors Brings $300,000
Goal Within Reach;
Outsiders Responding,
The linen mill drive will pass
the $275,000 mark at Thursday's
noon luncheon it was predicted at
headquarters today.
After a cloud of lethargy had
settled over the workers who had
been plodding uphill In strenuous
efforts to reach the top, a second
wind came today.
Everyone of the 48 hustlers
who have carried on so far enter
ed into the fray with a new spirit
and was outworking tooth and toe
nail with the $275,000 mark for
Thursday noon as the lowest of
the ambitions.
Willi uie $276,000 mark safely
passed the linen mill will be vir
tually a realization as there wilt
be no stopping or letup If the work
- ers themselves have to personally
guarantee the difference but they
are sure they will not.
The work on the outside Is pro
pressing, some fast pickups being
made at Silverton, Dallas report
lng progress and Independence
coming in strong yesterday after
noon and evening.
Yesterday afternoon's meeting
at Independence woa one nf en'
thustasm and last night a steering
committee was appointed there to
have charge of the drive.
From all over reports are com
ing in from rural districts as to
Interest farmers are showing from
the standpoint of a new crop for
the valley, a crop that promises
good returns and can be used as
a third rotation with their oats
and wheat.
The whole atmosphere In the
linen mill drive was surcharged
with new life today.
"I have never seen anything
like It in the history of any drive
In Salem," declared R. O. Snelling
"The men as a unit showed them
selves back Into the harness, every
one determined to go out and ex
cel the mark that was set to shoot
at. The bacon is Just around the
comer.
Medford, Or., May 13. A tour
ist In a light car drove up to the
door of Coroner H. W. -Conger's
on ice yesterday with a dead man
Bitting upright fsl the seat beside
him. The tourist was Edward
Borghart of Irwin, Mo., and the
dead man was Thomas Snodgrase
o. Phoenix, Arli. According to
Borghart, he picked up his com
panion while touring through Ari
ion a eeveral weeks ago, en route
to the coast, Borghart wishing to
go to the Puget Sound.
Upon reaching Ashland, Snod
gress complained of extreme pain
in his arms so they stopped in
Medford where medical treatment
was secured.
Continuing their trip north
however, to Gold Hill, Snodgrass
told Borghart to stop the car as
he was dizzy. No sooner had the
car stopped than the eick man'.'
head dropped and a hasty exam!
nation showed that he was dead
Borghart Instead of calling medi
cal assistance, turned the car
around and stopping In Medford
for Instructions, drove straight to
the coroner's office.

SEAT ON SOVIET
Moscow, May 13. (A. P.)
Leon Trotzky, deposed head of the
soviet army, who recently return
ed from seclusion in the Caucasus,
was toduy elected a member of the
presidium by the federal congress
of soviet states. He was given an
ovation by the congress.
Much surprise and widespread
comment followed the appearance
of Trotzky on the platform next
to Gregory Zinoviev, who last
year led the fight against Trotzky
which forced the tatter's political
retirement.
Although Trotzky Is not includ
ed among those who are tb present
to the congress report of govern
ment activities last year, it Is
probable that he will participate
in the wont of some of the numer
ous commissions which are formu
lating the program of the con
gress.
It was noticeable that Trotzky
received more applause than any
official who appeared on the
stage.
Medford, Or., May 13. Will
the lowly smudge pot conquer the
snows of Crater iake as well as tbe
frusta of the Rogue river valley?
This is the question which will be
settled by a series of experiments
started today by Colonel C. G.
Thomson, superintendent of Cra
ter Lake park, assisted by E. C.
Jerome, local agent for a standari
orchard heater.
Thomson and Jerome leave to
morrow with a crew of laborer
armed with shovels, T. N. T. and
picks, to start the work of re
moving hard packed snow from
the main roads in the park, to
make way for the official opening
set for July 1. This work is be
ing started three weeks earlier
than usual because of the ex
cessive snow which is now 14 feet
deep at tbe lake rim.
while the usual business of
snow removal Is curried on by the
snow crew, Colonel Thomson will
experiment with the smudge pots
tne idea being to set the potn
burning upon the lop of tan snow
at short distances apart in th'
hope that as the fuel burns the
heaters will gradually sink down
into the snow forming dpp holes
It is then though that the wind
and sun will connect up thes
holes, leaving a loose moss which
can easily be thrown to one side of
the road.

PROSECUTE
TEACHER OF
EVOLUTION
Science Instructor Made
Defendant In Action
To Test Legality of Ten
nessee Statute
Memphis, Tenn.t May 13.
When J. T. Scopes, science teach
er, Is called into court in the little
town of Dayton, .Tenn., to face a
charge of violating the Tennessee
law against teaching evolution In
the public schools, the case will
have passed beyond the borders of
state interest and an array of na
tionally known individuals and
organizations would be found
lined behind the prosecution and
defense.
Brvon Taxeit Hand.
The latest prominent individual
to enter the lists is William Jen
nings Bryan, foe of the theory o!
evolution. He announced in Pitte-
burgh yesterday that he had ac
cepted an invitation to represent
the World's Christian Fundament
al association in the prosecution
of Scopes.
Simultaneously persons inter
ested in the defense of Scopes,
who consented to nrrest on May 5
in order to start a test case of the
evolutionary law, announced plans
for the collection of a fund to de
fray expenses of carrying the litv
&j.ti)n to the courtB.
George W. Rappleyea, a chemi
cal engineer ana advocate of
theories of evolution who was re
sponsible for the issuance of the
warrant under which Scopes was
arrested, announced at Dayton
that before starting the proceed
ings he had obtained a guarantee
from the American Civil Liberties
Union that It would co-operatf
financially to carry the case to
the highest courts.
Held to Grand Jurv.
Following his arrest, Scopes
teacher In the Rheo county hih
school, was held for action by the
grand jury which meets in August.
Mr. Bryan's acceptance of a roio
in the prosecution, contingent up
on such representation being
agreeable to the legal department
o! Tennessee, came as the result
of the request ion by the Christian
fundamental association, meeting
here. The organization also asked
the commoner to tour tbe colleges
and universities of the country and
present the arguments of funda
mentalists before student bodies
and reply to advocates of theory
of evolution.
"I have been asked to help In
the fight to preserve the Irftegrlty
of that law tTennesse evolution
law) and I am going to do It,"
.Mr. Bryan said In an Address to
the Pittsburgh Presbytery after
the Invitation bad been received.
"We cannot afford to have
system of education that destroys
t.ie religious faith of our cbil
dren.'
Mr. Bryan asserted that "care
fully prepared figures Indicate
that among freshmen who enter
college, 15 per cent are wlthou
religious faith. By the time they
have reached their senior year the
college atmor-pliereof rnhelief has
so Influenced theiMives that there
Are 45 per cent who are without
religious faith."
"The attack being made right
now upon thofe who sta id square
ly for the Christian faith of their
fathers Is not an attack on ortho
doxy. It Is an attack on religion.
"There arc about 5000 scient
ists and probably half of them arc
athetlsUi, in the United States. Are
we going to aivow them to run
our schools? We are not."

receiver and former president- of
the Chicago, Milwaukee and St.
Paul railway. In a statement today
took exception to charges he said
newspapers had published that the
receivership of the railway was
held back until after congress ad
journed because bankers wished to
handle the proposition that way.
"The facta are," the statement
said, "that we approached the gov
eminent last fall to see about fin
anclal assistance In the way of a
loan and were told the government
had no money to lend us. We con
sidered It would be futile to follow
with a formal request after we had
been Informed there was no money
available.
"When we found the govern

sition was one of the last things

REAOY FOR
Attempt To Cut French
Communication Line
Seen In Concentration
of Tribesmen.
Madrid. May 13. (A. P.) A
dispatch from Rabat, French Mo
rocco, says the concentrations of
well armed and disciplined Rif
flan forces are taking place near
Cheopauev, giving rise to the be
lief that Abd-el-Krim will at
tempt to pierce the French right
and cut the link of communica
tion with Fes.
It Is said the French -military
experts do not believe this opera
tion can be carried out success
fully. Belief Moves Start
Rabat, French Morocco, May
13. (A. P.) The troops began
a movement last night for the re
lief of the besieged outposts cur
rounded by Abd-el-Krim's Rtf
fian tribesmen, says an official
communique issued today. Roth
of the French officers in charge
and half the members of the gar
rison of fifty at one of these
posts were wounded and out of
action for several days during the
Rlfftan bombardment, It is dis
closed. This outpost In the Bibane
region has been hotly besieged,
the Rifflnns keeping up a con
stant machine gun and artillery
fire and making repeated assaults
with hand grenades.
- The French forward action, the
communique says, is intended to
clean out the Rifflnns from
around several such block house
posts, which for more than a
week have been Isolated. During
that time, the garrisons have
been revictualled by airplanes.
News that the Bibane post was In
such a difficult position, prompt
ed immediate action by the
French. Despite the serious
wounding of both officers tho na
tive garrison was still holding out
at Lesports, although halt the
men were badly wounded.
Censorship Effective
Paris, May 13. The censorship
decreed by the government over
news of the developments In the
r.lffian tribesmen Invasion of
Fnch Morocco appears to have
become effective, the newspapers
this mnrnlnir ceasine to nrint
news oi the troop movements.
The situation according to the
latest advices remains unchang
ed along the 150 mile front, both
sides preparing for the coming
struggle. Abd-el-Krim's tribesmen
have showed no tendency to take
the offensive, and the French for
the present are contenting them-
sel- j with sorties and r.Irplane
flights for the revictualling of
their besieged outposts.
The work of grouping and con
triting reinforcements continue
and the Riffians are Improving
the opportunity to make their po
sitions as formidable as possible.
