MEDFORD MATL TRIETJNE, MEDFORD. ORKfiOX, MONDAY, AUCUTST 21, 1016 PJGTC TIMET! 'ft F By G1LSON GARDNER. WASHINGTON, Aug. 21 The Ger man government now rests on the "left" or radical side of the Reich' etag. This Is the information brought to the United States past the censor ship by no less authority than Miss Emily Green Baich, formerly pro fessor at Vassar, and now one of the two American members of the League for Continuous Mediation at the Hague. The fact Is probably more lmpor- taut than it might appear to many. The power of government comes through the parliamentary body which In Germany Is the Reichstag. For years the German government has beon sustained by the support of the "right" or conservative groups. These are composed of representa tives of the upper and middle classes, the propurty intorests, the church and the business men and banking in terests. The "loft" or radical groups are mado up of the socialists and liberal representatives of the working class and the peasants. The Reich stag, like othor parliamentary bodies In Europe, Is not controlled by any single political party, but depends for a majority on combinations made be tween political groups. Only in this way can the appropriations and taxa tion measures bo passed, and without taxation no government can exist, The Chancellor Is the responsible gov ernment official, who must secure the support of a majority In the legisla tive body. i The significance of the passing of power to the radical groups is that the German temper toward peace is apt to be much altered as a result. The Socialists and progressive groups are much more favorable at an early peace than are tho groups represent ing the military clement the junk ers and other conservative repre sentatives. In this connection, I am told by Charles R. Crane, who Is probably one of tho best informed men in tho United States on Russian affalr.i, that at the present time the Duma Is the real Russian government. When the war broke out the Duma was a repre sentative body only :n name, tho real power resting In the ancient Russian bureaucracy. This bureaucratic gov ernment ha3 failed to meet the crisis and for the first time In its history the government of Russia rests on the Duma. TO , MADRID, Spain, Auk- 21. An in crease in the Spanish army to IHU.OOO inen on peace fouling is provided for in n military reorganization hill which soon will be presented to parliament by the minister of war,' General Luque. This calls for an increase over the present force of 10,(10(1 men. Vnder the new plan (18,000 men will be garrisoned in Morocco. The reserves of the active army will permit rnpi.l mobilization of .100,000 men. The project provides for offi cers sufficient for a reserve army of 000,000. BABES ARE DYING 4 ClIlfAdO, AuK. -M The headless body of Mrs. Hosario Cosentino and two children, a baby about six months old and another child a year old, apparently dying from starva tion, were found in an apartment in West Twenty-fourth street today.

HERE SEPTEMBER 1 1 E "Hold your horses, the elephants ure coming! ' the giddiest, gnyest, erandest. glitteringest galaxy in the whole wide, wonderful world is trekkina this way and will spread its acres of tents here on Monday, September 11, for one performance only, Saturday at 10 u. m. If one doesn't infer from this that reference is made to tho Bur num & Bailey greatest show on earth the publicity man will regard the case as hopeless. 1 The first advertising ear is in this eily today and more than a score of experts are spreading with tack and hammer and pasto and brush the flaming- lithographic tidings of the approach of the big truvcliuir amuse ment institution. They arc under the direction of Arthur E. Digss, a well- known circus advertising specialist. This is the innovation of novelty year, the greatest of all seasons. More railroad cars arc required to trans port the show, bigjfor tents nre rais ed, more area is needed to accommo date the show than ever before. In fact, the circus litis reached a point where it is the despair of many of the smaller railroads and taxes their facilities to the limit, for cighty-nino cars arc needed to convey the gigan tic canvas vugrnnt from town to town. . , There's material enough in this year's circus to make a dozen cir cuses of the . old days. A "big top" 080 feet long, nearly IfiOO employes, three rings, four elevated platforms, icres ot aerial apparatus, n 108-eage menagerie, 750 horses, forty elo phants, a street parade three miles long! The stereotyped "grand entrco," with which the circuses were content to open their program for many years, has been permanently elimin ated from the Barnum & Ilailey tour nament. This season the nreniu en lertninment is inaugurated by the pectaole, "Persia or, the Pageants of the Thousand and One Nights." EPIDEMIC CENTER NKW YOU K, Aug. 21.
