Immigration Committee Aimt Washington. Sept 4. (Spec ial cor-1 res omlencei- Si caking us a member J of the committee on Immigration und naturalization In the House of Repre sentatives, Representative Isaac Sio gel, of New York, says that the I'nlt ecl States typifies loye of country. 'Citizenship implies desire und will nnd obligation to give all you possess in behalf of the country In which you live. As fur as the immigration coin- ! mHtt'H is concerned. It is determined upon one thing that in the United States there is not going to he room for u living creature, no mutter how small he can be, if he is not willing lo stand by America 24 hours n day. It Is only in the Inst two years that the Immigration law really provides for illiteracy test and examination both physically and nientiilly. It gav Ihe government all the power it could usk for to effect the detioratlon of 1 undesirables. The astonishing feat ure of our Investigation has been (hat we find that the man who cannot read Engl'sh or any language in fact, Is the very man who Is willing (o listen to people who have no love for America."

Urging i that a movement be started arw-w tr force tiie building by the Southern I Pacific company of the Natron cut- wit hi iiuii' .i liit; fv it j .t inaiii line with Klamath Falls, Senator George K. Chamberlain told the Pro gressive Puslness Men's club at lunch at the lienson hotel Thursday noon, that Southern and Central Orergon are not only buying goods in Califor nia, but reading California newspap er and have the California spirit. The senator mentioned his holding up of the Link river dam project la Klamath county which. If completed, would have the effect of making Southern Oregon.' Irrigation and water power available only for Cali fornia and'to the great detriment of Oregon settler. He said hi inspec tion of other project conylnced him that more government aid I needed to helo the settlers put over their own irrigation endeavors.' Executive Says "Nothin Doing" Portland, Ore., Sept. 6. "A railroad with net earnings limited to 6 per cent is in no position to pay 7 per cent interest on money spent for ex tension of trackage," declared Julius KruttHchnitt, chairman of the execu tive committee of the company, in an intcfrview Saturday night, and he made It very plain that the Southern Pacific has no Intention 'of Indulging In that sort of flnancing'for the bene fit of Klamath Falls or of Portland, whose interest Is as great. The only construction work planned for this summer In Oregon consists of four long sfdings on the main line of the company's tracks on the east side of the Siskiyou mountains ac cording to Kruttschnitt. These sid ings will average 4500 feet in length and will prove a great aid to through freight traffic over the Southern Pac ific main line, relieving the conges tion on the Oregon side of the range. Building Freight Cart (Eugene Guard) " . ." 7 A party of prominent Southern Pac ific ' officials stopped off in Eugene yesterday in course of a tour of in spection through the state and took a look over the properties and offices in this city. In the group were Presi dent William Sproule, Julius Krutt schnitt, chairman of the executive . committee. Vice-President Paul Shoup General Manager J. H. Dyer. T. T. Burkhalter. assisstant general man ager, 'and A. T. Mercier. superintend ent of the Portland division. They were noncommital in their conference with local officials, but from remarks dropped by the way it is made plain that the Southern Pacific construc tion program is going to be pushed with all exped'tion. having in view something over 9.000 freight and re frigerator cars and 100 locomotives. Work on these is being carried si multaneously, in . th.e shops in Port land, Sacramento and Los Angeles. As to the future of th.e Portland-San Franc'sco train service, there is no great encouragement to the people who want to travel de luxe, in the chance remark of President Sproule that the extra fare trains over the route have never been especially norular with the public nor profitable to the company. Hence there will be no hurry in restoring that class of service. Slug the Garden Slug By spraying "slugged" plants with Bordeaux mixture, 44-50, and spread ing a poison bait, made of one part calcium arsenate to 16 narts chopped lettuce leaves, in small heaps about the plants, good protection is ob tained. For several years A. L. Lov ett, entomologist of the O. A. C. ex periment station, and A. B. Black, assistant, have been trying out many ways of slugging the slug, and find the above best. They have published their findings on the slug, its feeding and breeding habits and its control, in a new bulletin. "The Gray Garden Slug." Just off the college press. If bothered bv slugs, and of course you nre. Fend for free copy to the college at Corvallis. . COMPLETES S. P. AGENCY COURSE Lester E.
