The first shipment ot ohroralc Iron Ort ever ant from southern Oregon rent forward from Water crck, th terminus ot the saw railroad, Tues day night. . Tht shipment was billed through to Naw Torn" city, and la the first of many shipments that are ex pected to follow as fast aa the ore can ba hauled to the loading atatlon. Forty tons constitute a carload, and H has to be hauled from 10 to 10 tajlee by wagon before It can be load ed upon the car. The present ship ment la made by the Manganese Com fatty of California, which has had omerous camps established through oat the Illinois valley daring the sea ton opening np the deposits of thla ort and hauling It oat for ehlpment. It It said that 00 tons, or 18 car loads, are now on the dump at the mines or at Kerby awaiting hauling to the railroad. The opening np ot thla new Industry waa made possible by the great adranre In the price of this ore, the bulk of which had here tofore been Imported from Europe. It as found cheaper to ahlp the ore by Teasel serosa the sea than to trans port It across this country by rail, nenre the deposits on the west coast were not developed. The ' freight across the continent la greater than the former prices paid for the ore. Chrome ore la used In connection with other Irons In the making ot aome of the higher grades of steel. ROUT. TWOHY ON EASTERN PROSPERITY. There have been rumors from Port land that the firm of the Twohy Brothers company would embark In the buslneaa of building wooden ships, and that a ship yard would be oper ated by them In Portland. The re Ian of Judge and Robert Twohy from the esst has put new life Into the rumor, though Robert Twohy, In an Interview Tuesday, denied that definite plana had yet been made. He eald, however, that proposals made them were under consideration and that announcement would be made The Finest Water White Homey KINNEY & TRU AX GROCERY Quality First G KERBY I aued a call for a mass meeting of proteat against United States occupa tion of Mexican territory. The call for the meeting mentioned the "in terventionist tendenoles of the United Statee southward," vaguely hinting that Interventionists In the United States threatened the safety of other Latin-American republics. The Argentine papers are divided In their sympathies. LaNaclon, the most Influential newspaper In Argen tine, attributes Mexico's plight to outlawry which Carrama la evident ly unable to prevent. While prac tically admitting the existence of a strong nucleus of sympathy In South America for Mexico, LaNactoa adds: "But the attitude ot the United States deserves trsaqull view as long aa It maintains a guarantee ot Mex ican territorial Integrity.- The newspaper Rasoa publishes a review of the situation under the headline: "Mexlco'a Calvary." The Union suggests that possibly other nations may he Interested, mention ing no namea, but evidently meaning Japan. The newspaper Argentine saya that Mexico la simply suffering the consequences ot anarchy. .1 KIU.KD IX CANADIAN KXPIiOttlVK Pl.AXT Parry Sound. Ont, June 11.

We found the biggest men divided as to which would win. I believe there will lie more oratory and less mud In this campaign than usual. "There Is less of the feverish buy ing In the cast now, and one banker we mot eald he considered the un derlying Imslnps situation as 'soft.'

No better evidence of thla attitude could be found today than In the statement of the high administration official mentioned, who aald: "Thla government still hopes for peaceful settlement; we are even yet far removed from war or Interven tion. But even should It become ne cessary, through some overt act of Carrama or his armed forces, for the punitive expedition to take up a more serious task, whom would our armed forces set out to fight!" War department officials aald that, In the event of real trouble, they ex pect no more than two or possibly three real engagements. But there would still be left the more serious work of policing and pacifying the country south of the Rio Grande. It would not be a matter, they say, of taking two or three strategic posi tions by force ot arms, and then treating with the established govern ment for pence, for they are con vinced that one or two victories for American arma would break any hold Car ran xa has on the Mexican govern ment. War and navy officials today aald ft would be a small matter compara tively to blockade all of Mexico. But they asked, "whom would we block ade?" The population already Is nesr starvation In many sections, they de clared, and to put Into effect a real i blockade simply would mean further suffering for those this government j wishes to relieve. There would be no government with which to trest 'ss to lifting of such a blockade. For theee reasons, administra tion officials are even more deter mined to go alowly. It was frankly admitted and emphasised that the ad ministration will strain lis powers to koen out of Mexico. Although many officials Mleved real atlon. If It comes at all. will not come for aeversl weeks, it was expected that all haste will be made to get the militia to the border as soon as practicable. Except the men from those statea In the far south, the militia men must be acclimated. It was expected that after the mllltla I men reach the border a period of walt'ng will follow while Carranta Is i given a final chance. Fraternal fellowship and good will were demonstrated on Saturday night. June 17. by the Golden Rule Lodge, No. 78, 1. 0. O.
