Nov. 22.— (Special)-—The Oregon
team of eleven regulars, which has
played through the season with few
substitutioDs, will lie weakened in
the game against O. A. C. today by
the absence from the line-up of Jack
Bliss, left end. out for the season
because of an infected foot. Sher­
man Smith, of Glendale, who played
for a time in the Idaho game at
Moscow, will probably substitute for
Bliss. Burton is a possibility.
Although Bliss is strong and
stocky, he was battered so hard in
the Idaho and W. S. C games that
it was difficult to get into scrimmage
on return home on account of his
many bruises. One of his hurts re­
sulted in an infection, with a conse­
quent order from the doctor that he
must not play Saturday.

SIX COVERED WAGONS ARRIVE
«lettiera For Irrigation District
to Grants Pass
< 'ome
Covered wagon days, which bring
to the imagination those early times
when pioneers battled their way
west, have not completely disappear­
ed. Travel conditions have changed
however, as found out by the occu­
pants of the six covered
wagons
which reached Grants Pass late Fri­
day from Detrick, Idaho, in search
•fbs new country in which to make
their homes.
These travelers left
Idaho six weeks ago and have been
coming westward to the "last fron­
tier" through wind, rain and snow,
to find the sun smiling Its brightest
when they dropped over into the
Rogue river valley from the Klam-'
ath country.
The
wr.rm
balmy
weather which greeted them Friday
was vastly different from that en­
countered on their way, when they
met two snow storms.
These new settlers were attract­
ed to the Grants Pass district by the
Chicago Liyid Company and several
have already purchased tracts of land
within the irrigation district
on
which they will make their future
homes.
They were here
several
months ago and liked the country
to such a degree that they returned
and expect many of their neigl.ltors
to follow. In fact, six other covered
wagons have already left for the
Rogue valley.
The trip was made by way of Burns
and Klamath Falls. While several
other promising places in Oregon
were seen, the wagons continued
their courses and did not stop until
they reached their objective. Mem-
bers of the wagon train state that
the whole section around Detrick is
interested in the Rogue valley and
many more may be expected to ar­
rive.
A Million Dollars Worth Went Up in Smoke
Lima. Peru. Nov. 21.— (A. P.) —
The economic future of Peru being
largely dependent on immigration,
because the native population is
small, the country today takes an
especial interest in the foreigners
who Journey from their own lands to
settle within the boundaries of the
Peruvian republic.
The question of the coming of
Japanese has attracted
attention,
particularly as the Japanese quotas
have lately increased. Also it is re­
ported here that a company has been
formed in Japan to encourage emi­
gration to both Peru and
Brazil.
There is a feeling locally that the
moment has come to regulate immi­
gration from Japan; that .within

Peruvian borders Peru should safe­
guard her own interests. The abil­

they are clannish and slow in assim­
ilating the customs of the country,
has not made them popular here.
Nevertheless a treaty of friendship,
commerce and navigation between
Peru and Japan, signed in Washing­
ton in 1895 and subsequently re­
voked, recently has been renewed.
Peru has in the past tried to stimu­
late immigration from Italy and
Germany, whose people have been
found especially adaptable to the
needs of the country and who make
good Peruvian citizens. A continu­
ation of these efforts would, tt is be­
lieved, find popular support
There are today no restrictions up­
on the entry of Japanese into Peru,
yet remarkably few have so far come
here.
Reliable estimates place the
prisent number at 10,000. Peru hus
a totul population of 4,500.000. Lima
counts about 6.000 Japanese resi­
dents. the others living in the prov­
inces.
