D. S. CONSUL IS
TO BE REMOVED
Investigation of Complaints Lodged
Against Representative at Enstn-
ada May Lead to Man's Removal-
Americans are, frightened..
SAN DIEdO, Cal., May 29. That
George P. Scbmuckcr, American con
sul at Enscnnda, Lower California,
may be relieved, in a few hours is the
expectation of '.some locnl men who
have investigating reports of some of
Sohnincker's recent orders.
Jhe results of these investigations
have been sent to Washington by
Stato Senator .L. A. Wright, at the
request -of Americans in business nt
Eusennda. A number of signed state-
iiient are included in the evidence.
..Action in the. ease was decided on
after Dr. Lawrence S. Chamberlain
and J. P. Taylor, both well known
here, were arrested in bed nt Esenndit
Wednesday night and taken by a file
of soldiers to the Qunrtel or prison
oft the city. It is alleged that they
were held "incommunicado" until j
o'clock tho next morning.
iuVt that hour some Mexicans, enny
ing shovels, arrived and gave every
indication that tho time had come
foj: the two prisoners to perform the
act ofiligging their own graves. Dr.
Chamberlain told the reporter that
ho was absolutely ccrtai nlhnt hi
time to die had come. Close on the
heels o ft ho shovel men there came
iiynesseuger with orders to bring the
prisoners before Governor Celso Vega
yliom thej kuew well. The governor
toldi them that they were, they my,
held at tho instance of the AOmericnn
consul. Through the efforts of Gov
ernor Vega tho men were released
upon their promise not to kill any
one 'and to get out of tho country at
once.
Several other American citizens nr
rived here by tho Steamer San Diego
and' tho Bernardo Reyes last Thurs
day, and decline to return to Ensen
ada while Consul Sehmitcker remains
iip office. They have bustuehs inter
ests there- demanding their presence.
Schmuckor's duties in Enfienudn,
since tho rebel troubles started, have
been especially arduous, and sonio of
tho Americans say ho is in need of a
rest.
nn a telegram, outlining our superior advantages.
This locality, above all 'others was a favorite' with Mr.
llarriman.
"Build them the best depot in the Northwest" he said
after a visit here.
It was done. . ,
"Beautiful beyond compare" was his characterization 01
this favored spot.
Judge Lovott, .T. C. Stubbs, Julius Kruttschmitt all
have spoken high words of praise for Medford and the
Rogue River Valley.
Their influence would be great with Mrs. Harriinan,
as she has great confidence in their ability, capabilities
and judgment.
Let local boosters get busy.
The "can't do it" club will be on tnc jou, out urown
them out.
Such a university would mean tho expenditure of mil
lions for buildings and equipment alone.
It Would turn the eyes of the educational world on the
Rogue River Valley.
So let's get busy.
A few' of the things to be sot forth in the telegrams to
Mrs. ITarriman and here advisers would call attention to
the fact that the Rogue TJiver Valley offers for a univer
sity superior ' V,'1 -.

Progressive citizenship
Geographical situation
Metropolitan characteristics
Facilities and attractions.
Let us get together and get it. ,
A wisely directed effort cannot fail.
Get together and send the telegram before Mrs. llarri
man has made a choice.
Medford can amply afford to offer her a site consisting
of 100, 500 or a 1000 acres.
It can be worked out.
Let's do it.

IS TO BE RETURNED
J :
WASHINGTON. May 29. After
resting nearly fifty years in tho nr
chives of the war department, it now
seems probable that the ordinance
of .secession passed by the btatc of
Louisiana, will bo returned to Hint
stnte. A resolution introduced by
Senutor Fostpr providing for Uh re
turn has been favorably reported to
the senate, and its passage is ex
pected. The suggestion for its return was
made by tho war department officials.
They saw no reason for its retention
among the war department records,
though they lucked uuthority to re
turn it to Louisiana, Their -suggestion
was warmly received in Louisi
ana, and for several years efforts
have been made to enact legislation
for its return. Thus far Senator
Heybuni, noted for waving the
"bloody shirt" in the senate on simi
lar questions, has blocked action upon
tho resolution by raising a point pf
order. There is reuson .to believe,
however, thnt his opposition will be
rendered (ineffectual uat this ses
sion. The document toi enacted in con
vention at Huton Rogue on January
28. ,1801. It remained at tho 'state
capitol until the capture of the city
by federal troops. At the war de
partment there, is now no one who is
familiar with the history' of its re
ceipt in Washington. During the fed
eral occupation of Louisiana, there
were many records shipped to Wash
ington, and it is presumed thnt the
ordinance of secession was among
them.

BALK ROAD'S PLAN
SEATTLE, Wash., May 29. Arm
ed with shotgunB, a half dozen citi
zens of Rainier Valley stood on guard
at Kcayon station all last night to
prevent tho Seattle, Ronton and
Southern electric line from laying a
"X" which would enable tho turn
ing back of cars, and the charging of
an oxtra nickel fare Into Seattle. Tho
city council had revoked tho lino's
permit for tho "Y," by citizens feared
the company wqulu" get an Injunction
and lay It during the night beforo
tho police or anybody could Inter
fere. Xo effort was made, however,
but Rainier Valley citizens are on
guard again tonight.

SPRINOFIKLD, 111., May 29. if
United States Senator Loriiner, as a
Washington report predicts, lcsigns
before tho, stato legislature- adjourns
hero next Wednesday, it means thut
tho legislature must select his suc
cessor. If h resigns after adjourn
ment of tho legislature, Governor De
neeu will appoint his successor to
serve until tho legiblaliiro convenes
again.
Tho niiti-Deiieen members of tho
legislature today are planning not to
adjourn sine die, bin morely. to tnku
a recess, thus making it possible for
tho legislature to wisscmblp at nny
timo to ballot for tho senutorbhip.

Heforo leaving here for Sncrniaeii
to toduy, Governor Hiram Jolinon
stated that ho would call a speeiat
