Aa one Just -awakening from a horrible case of "charley-horse," the afedford Sun rubs Its eyes and asks: "By the way, what has become of the Grants Pass railroad, to the coast!" Evidently the, fog raised by the bond issue scrap over in the Jack .eon county metropolis has shut out other news features of the day. The Sun editor has not been keeping track of work as it progressed under the Twohy regime. He has not noted s the marshaling of engineering skill, the mobilisation of forces, the pre paring for a campaign that means only one thing the launching of aa immediate attack upon Hays Hill, the one engineering problem between Grants Pass and Takilma. While the Sun man has been in his trance the Twohys have been lay ing steel,' the grade has been com . pleted to Hays HI1L the tiA are al ready in place upon that unit, fridges have been built, new equipment has been sent in, a steam shovel is work ing full time every day digging out ballasting material with which the 15 miles of roadbed to Hays Hill is be ing made ready for the traffic it must bear with the heavy construction in volved on the next unit Engineer Boschke, whose name is known throughout the land as the builder of the Galveston seawall and of other great projects, has made numerous trips to the city, and now Engineer MacYIear, who was the valued lo cating engineer 'for the Milwaukee when that road sought and found a , way through to the coast, has come I to Grants Pass as a permanent at- tacbe of the Twohy company. These men have both examined tfhe Hays Hill route, and they say they can get over It on an easy grade and without tunnelling and the toot of the loco motive will be heard in the valley of the Illinois before another fall. The Twohys are doing all they ,'. agreed to do, and more. Their work ing force contains no brass bands and megaphones are not used In giv ing orders. 1 Every little while the strident whistle of the locomotive up , i on ,,tbe . Coast railroad resounds .through the Grants Pass atmosphere, ' and not a kick has yet been registered ' "'against' that whistle. Meantime, Medford Is seeking some way by which it can choke off the Southern Pacific whistle and so not awaken the dwellers upon tbe banks of the odoriferous Dear from their peaceful slumbers. They find dreams more comforting than cold, clammy facts. CHRISTMAS I.N' BELGIUM. Santa Clans will endeavor to get 55,000,000 worth of clothing IntOj Belgium before December 25. In j this particular instance Santa hap-, pens to be Herbert C. Hoover, chair-1 man of the commission for relief of Belgium, now en route there uboard the NIeuw Amsterdam. Before sailing he put It up to the American public to prevent several million destitute Belgians from freez ing to death thlH winter. "For 15 months," Hoover said, "Belgium has been almost complete- ly paralysed. We are now face to face with securing the people enough of clothes to keep them over winter. They must be new, for It is practical ly Impossible to get anything but new clothes past the present sanitary re gulations In Europe. We want about 15,000,000 worth. The gratttude of the Belgian people to America Is pa thetic. That is the one country in Europe today where America Is popular." MASOH TELLS WHAT WAR MOVES MEAtl New Y?rk, Nov. 11. Grand Duke Nicholas, once leader' of the main Russian armies, has again come In to prominence by directing the cam tap HIS "BEST Auk almost any grocer and he will tell you that he arils more at. and ROYAL CLUB at 35c " than any other brands at any price : -J , - It la not mere chance that Lang A Co.'s brands are best sellers" it is the natural result of higher quality and lower price. One year ago when the coffee market "dropped" Lang M Co. were the only coffee roan t era on the Pacific Const who passed the saving .down to the consumer la reduced retail prices and Increased quality. y We. believed that it was better to win a large volume of sales on price and quality rather than through a senti mental appeal to the people to patronize "home Indus trie." . .

Petrograd announced that the Rus sians, under the grand duke, are within 45 miles of Teheran, and that the enemies of Russia are preparing to flee: Apparently this situation develop ed from a surprise sprung by the grand duke. Moreover, probably the Ottoman discipline deteriorated In the months since the Turks occupied northern Persia, or else the Galli pot! and Thrace operations depleted their supply of ammunition. Pos sibly even, the duke's expedition met with no resistance. If Teheran falls, the grind duke will largely wipe out the disgrace of his removal from the supreme com mand in Russia. The victory will be Important for Russia and will greatly depress Constantinople. Northern Persia has practically been a Russian possession, but the Turks have long been ambitious to make It an Otto man dependency.

Faces torn and distorted by war wounds out of all semblance to human countenances will be "repaired" In a French hos pital If American dollars come to the aid of promoters of tbe plan. Dr. Anema, Paris surgical specialist, said today plans are rapidly nearlng com pletion for an American hospital In France for this humane work. France will furnish the building, and tbe hAmertcan Red Cross the nurses. "Up to Msy 5," he explained, "there were 55,570 cases of severe face and Jaw wounds among the, al lies on the western front. We will need many American surgeons and dentists for work on Jaw and teeth structure preliminary to rebuilding noses, Hps and shattered facial tissue. The number repaired will depend up on the number of dollars America is willing to contribute to prevent Eu rope from becoming a continent of ghastly freaks." Anema's photographs show that faces bocotne nearly normal when lips and cheeks' are grafted on by using tissue from the thighs of wounded men. Noses and 'Jaws are constructed from rHs, while mus taches are built from scalp hair.

TORPEDOING OF THE ANCONA Washington, Nv. 18. -If rports concerning the torpedoing of the Italian liner Anrona off the Tunis coast continue to conflict, an inquiry probably will be directed by the state department to Austria and Ger many, asking the official versions of tftelr admiralties. Secretary Lan sing submitted to the cabinet today reports from Ambassador Thomas Nelson Page at Rome, and from con sills In the Ancona sone. Meantime, officials suspended Judgment, prefer ring to have the conflict In testimony cleared up first. Tbe tangled reports concerning the nationality of the sea diver gave much concern. This question Is most Important, In view o( the warning to Germany that a recurrence of the Lusltanla Incident would be consider ed "deliberately unfriendly." Press reports Indicating that the attacking submarine rsioed death up on passengers after they took to the lifeboats added to a disquieting situ ation. Officials were Inclined to feel that, should these stories prove true, the undorsea boat had exceeded Its rights inder Intcrnatlosal.law, even though previously tho Anrona had tried to flee. This flight, they sug gested, would not Justify wanton de struction of life after the vessel had been overhauled, though It would ex cuse the shelling during tbe chsse and likewise the subsequent torpe doing of the ship.
