REPUBLICANS ARE ACTIVE.
A business meeting ot the Hashes
Alliance of Grants Pass, held in the
court house last evening, developed
that a great deal ot interest Is being
aroused among the Hughes support
ers in this district. There was an ex
cellent attendance ot both men and
women at the meeting, and all were
anxious to get into the campaign in
earnest
The list ot delegates to sttend the
state-wide conference at Portland
Thursday was completed, and it is ex
pected that this city will be represent
ed by several delegates.
In order to defray expenses inci
dental to the campaign for Hughes
In this county, a request was made
by the Alliance that its members eon
tribute some amount from 25 cents
p. A considerable sum was raised
among those present at the meeting.
There is no obligation upon members
to make contribution, and their offer
ings are voluntary. Committees, to
he composed of the central committee
man and one lady from each of the
voting precincts of the city, and one
committee at large from the county,
were provided to aid in raising the
campaign fund.
The Alliance resolved to aid the
county committee and the state com
mitteeman in arranging the first poli
tical meeting ot the sesson, which will
he on October 13, when Hon. A. E.
Clark, of Portland, will be the speak
er. Other speakers are expected to
be sent into this territory later.
A meeting of the county central
committee has been called tor this
evening, at the court house. The
nominees tor county office are also
to meet with the committee, and a
vigorous campaign for the entire
county ticket will be outlined. It Is
expected that the nominees will go
in a body and hold a series of meet
ings throughout the county.
The boys of Grants Pass are about
to be organized into a local camp of
tbe Boy Scouts. This organization
has done a wonderful amount of good
for the youth ot the nation. It has
provided an outlet lor surplus en
thusiasm, and energy that might have
found release In other directions Is
given toward the development of the
Boy Scout movement. There is an
appeal to the mind of youth in the
outdoor activities ot the members of
Hhe Boy Scout organization, and a love
of nature is Instilled snd guided along
right lines.
The machinery at the sugar factory
will be started In motion next week,
and a few days later the first sack of
Grants Pass sugar will Im upon the
market. Tbe beets are now fast tak
ing on saccharine as well as gaining
In size, so that neither the factory
people nor the farmers are in a hurry.
4o start the slicers.
i
It you have any doubts about the
prepondeiancy of local sentiment in
favor of Hughes for president, Just
note the number of Hughes buttons
worn by men and women over the
Wilson emblems.

(Continued from page 1.)
as to reasons for the reported resig
nations," Sato said. "There was no
intimation that the Okuma cabinet
anticipated such a step when I left
Japan. It Is not true that Marquis
Okuma did not control the cabinet.
He was working In harmony with the
administration and reports to the con
trary are mere conjectures of persons
who sre uninformed. If subsequent
events prove the reported reslgnstlon
true, it 'will occasion no disturbance
in Japan.
"I can not understand why the re
signations should have been offered.
for the Okuma cabinet was bscked by
a strong party organisation."
Dr. Sato will be the guest of
Seattle's leading public men at a ban
quet tonight and will leave tor Wash
ington tomorrow morning.
Washington, Oct. 3. Persistent
opposition of the Japanese upper,
non-elective house of parliament to
the policies of Premier Okuma Is re
sponsible for his reslgnstlon, news of
which was cabled from Toklo today.
This is the belief of the embassy here.
Oknma's party controlled the ma
jority of the lower house, but a coali
tion of other parties In the upper
house was formed against him. It Is
said Okuma has tor some weeks felt
unable to continue the government
and face the npper house when It
convenes in December.
It Is understood the premier hss
been contemplating resigning for
some months and has been waiting
for a time when he thought he could
arrange a successor from his own
party. Viscount Kato. former min
ister of foreign affairs under Okuma,
snd now lesder of the letter's party
In the lower house. Is said to be the
candidate of that body and ot Okuma
for the premiership. Oknma's op
ponents in the npper house are advo
cating the appointment of Count Mar
shal Terauchl, now governor of
Korea.
Terauchl, with the title of marshal,
has the highest rank In the Japanese
army.
Marquis Okuma Is 79 years old and
has been premier for two and a half
years. It Is considered likely that
his advanced years have something to
do with his desire to retire.
CROSS TIE DANUBE
London, Oct. 3. The Roumanian
force which invaded Bulgaria Sunday
is believed to be moving southward
against the Important Kustchuk
Varna railway. Tbe size of the army
tbat crossed the Danube is not known
here, but English military critics to
day declared they believed It was
composed of at least 20,000 men.
They pointed out that a smaller force
would be pinned against the bank of
the river by the Bulgars and would
meet the same fate as the Roumanian

A note
Sen Francisco, Oct. I
from Lieutenant Immelmsnn, famous
German flyer, delivered in Australia,
brought Edward Grimwade, Mel
bourne millionaire, to San- Francisco
today, on his way to London, where
he will seek the release ot bis son,
Frank, from a prison camp In Ger
many. Immelmann's note told how Frank,
who is a British airman, had engaged
the German aviator in a sky duel and
how the Englishman, sorely wounded
and with his observer dead beside
him. brought his aeroplane to the
ground, where he was taken prisoner.
Immelmann and hla associate Ger
man aviators, moved by admiration
for their defeated antagonist, risked
their lives to deliver a note address
ed to Grlmwade's father. With shells
bursting about them, they flew over
the allied lines and dropped the mes-
ssge, which wss delivered to the elder
Grimwade In Melbourne many weeks
later.
He started east this afternoon.
