Itogtio River Argus. , A Good Resolution. To holp build up Medford payrolls by smoking Governor Johnson or Mt, PUt cigars, ROGUE RE FEDERALS RLE SUIT TO SMASH BASEBALL TRUST CHICAGO, Jan. .". Clmi-ginc Hint the national commi-fon, the jjovern iuj; hotly of orgnnized baseball, H. riilo and the national agreement un der which its members work lire n violation of the iinti-lnn-l Htutute.s, the Federal league filed suit hero to day nkiiu; that tho comuuioii he decreed illegal nml il members en joined from rout lulling in tho alleged unlawful combination. The suit was filed in ' the United States district court and in the iwual course of litfino- would be put on the calendar of Federal Jud!;o Kene--aw M. l.unrii'S who i n devote" of baseball. Ono of the principal elnu-c in Hie prayer of the hill i that nil contracts with ballplayer under tho national agreement mid rules oT tho national commission be declared void, so far as they concern tin Federal league. The court is nked to enjoin the national commission or nuy elub in organized baseball from seeking to enforce its contracts with players who have signed with the Federal league. Special exception is taken to epithets alleged to have been ap plied to Fcdenil league pluyers, and the court is asked to rc&trniii the de fendant from "culling players under contract with the Federal league 'contract jumpers' nnd from char acterizing the Federal league or its members us 'outlaws.'" L To the Editer: As I havo been somowhat Inter ested In the rural credit bill that was Introduced In tho last session of con gress, my attention was called to an article from tho Washington corres pondent In tho Sunday Journal, De cember 27. hecond section, page eight, under tho heading, "Says icrsonal help, not mortgage loans Is need of farmer." This seems to mo to bo a movement to sidetrack the original bill recommended by tho United States commission and known as the Agricultural Credit Land Mortgage or Long Term Credit bill. I cannot seo how a short term credit of less than ono year Is going to bo of much as sistance to tho farmer, for It their credit is good they have It already through tho local banks. Sly exper ience has been through dealing with the farmer for the last 25 years, that they need a long term loan with a low rate of Interest, and that fcaturo was taken up very thoroughly In tho rural credit bill that was Introduced, Tho article also stated that Rob ert IJ. Van Cortandt was n member of tho Kura! Credit Commission, but upon looking up tho names of the commission appointed by President Wilson, his names docs not appoar, and when tho report wns mado It was signed by tho wholo commission. I think that tho rural credit question should bo taken up by every county In this state, and as Jackson county Is one of the most progressive coun ties, there arc petitions already bo- Ing circulated requesting our mem bers In congress to urge tho matter bo taken up nt this session. If tho farmers throughout tho country would do llkowlse, It would not bo long boforo wo would havo as good laws as tho foreign countries from which tho data for this legislation was collected, W. T. YORK. GERMAN MERCY SHOWN TO BRITISH PRISONER LONDON, Jan. G, 2:57 a, m.
