Mcnihcrs of the new federal ranii
loan Itnnrd passed tliniiiKh tlu valley
Friday and were met at (fold Hill by
local inemberK of the committee re
cently a)oii)ted nt u mass iiicctinf;
who advanced arguments in favor ol'
n farm loan bank for the northwest
The members of the hoard met were
fleonro Norris, W. S. A. Smith and
Herbert Quick.
Loral sentiment ih in favor of es
tablishing it farm loan bank in Spo
liime, Wash., rather than in l'ortlnnd
if judgment I'lin lie made from the
opinions expressed by some of the
tanners who met the board. I'ort
land, they sniil, has never given this
unction a square deal, and there was
general apprehension that the valley
would be neglected by the bank if it
bo established ill the Hose city. Mem
bers of the board explained, however,
that wherever the blink be located,
there need be no uneasiness on that
hcorc, as the district including Ore
gon must embrace several states. Ap
praisers will be unpointed in each sec
tion who will bo able to form correct
estimates ns to valuations. The fig
ures will, of course, bo checked by
the board of the bank, but, except in
ease of gros error, will no doubt
stand. 1
. A large number of pamphlets ex
plaining the plans of the bonrd we're
distributed by members of the local
committee who met the land board at
(lohl Hill.
After tho conference, in Medford
t tic members of the hoard with their
secretaries were taken in automobiles
to Ashland.
. The federal land board left the
eastern const August and since
thnt time has held hearings in all the
northern states, beginning in Maine.
They will travel through California,
the southern states and then to Wash
ington, where the mass of data gath
ered will he made into rcHirls. Short
ly thereafler the location of the
twelve banks and their districts in the
country will be ainiounccd. It is hop
ed by the members of the board to
linve the banks in operation by the
first of February, 1U17.
"The greatest aid to tho develop
ment of Medford nml tho surrounding
section is a means of providing farm
ers with cheap money for tho devel
opment of their properties," said Del
Toy Oolchol, who was a member of
the committee of Medford men who
met the members of tho federal farm
loan board at Gold Hill this morning
and conferred with them on establish
ing n farm loan bank in this district
"I personally am greatly in favor
. of the proposed federal plan," eon
tinned Mr. (Ictehel, "anil I think I
mil'' speak for the other bankers of
the city. Tho establishment of such
banks will in many eases compel lo
cal hanks to make their loans on sec
ond mortgages and Hut laws will have
to he amended so as to allow national
banks to do so. However, that, will
work small hardship, as the banks w
be tiblc to take care of themselves

OFF WAR VICTIMS WILSON AND HUGHES INFLUENCING SENATE
Medford Book Store
LONDON, Sept. 8. Describing tho
effocts of the British bombardment
of the German positions at Uui'.lc-
mont, tho correspondent of Router's
Telegram company at British bead-
quarters In France says:
'The ground east of the village
was strewn with German dead, In
many cuses stark naked, every stitch
of clothing having been blasted off.
A large proportion showed no signs
of wounds and there Is little doubt
that the mon were killed by the In
tense concussion.. In the dugoiits
those who escaped olive said their
nerves were destroyed by the ter
rific pounding of the British guns."
The correspondent considers It sig
nificant that the ground won was
not bombarded by German field guns,
which indicates, he says, that tho
Teutons withdrew their field artillery
out of range. Whether this Is from
apprehension that the guns might
fall into British hands or whether It
Is preliminary to a general with
drawal the writer adds, can of course
be only a matter of speculation.
AURORA, 111., Kept. 8. "Both
President Wilson and Charles IS.
Hughes conceal their thoughts In
ovaslon and are content to tickle the
ears of their hearers with platitudes
and harmless generalities," J. Frank
llanly, prohibition candidate for
president, declared In the opening
speech of his campaign tour here to
day. .
Manly particularly criticized both
Wilson and Hughes for profosulng a
great Interest in the women and chil
dren of the nation and remaining si
lent on the "liquor curse."
Tho cluim made by President Wil
son In his acceptance speech that tho
democratic party had effected the
emancipation of the children of the
country by releasing them from hurt
ful labor was denied by llanly.
"There can bo no real emancipa
tion of the children whllo tho liquor
traffic holds the warrant of (he na
tion tor their spoliation," Mr. Hanly
declared.
TO PROBE LOBBY
WASHINGTON, Sept. 8. A reso
lution by Senator Curtis of Kansas,
directing the senate lobby committee
to investigate the activities of the al
leged foreign lobbying opposition to
the retaliatory provision of the rev
enue bill ngainst Canadian fisheries
was passed today by the senate. The
resolution was adopted after the sen
ate had disposed of a similar resolu
tion by referring it to n committee.
The new resolution adopted provides
for a report at tile next session of
congress. . . ;
Senator Heed, democrat, a mem
ber of the lobby committee, said lie
believed it was high time for the
American government to show other
nations that it regarded as offensive
any efforts to influence legislation in
congress.
Senator Lewis, democrat, urged
that if anything should be investigat
ed it should be the recent demands of
Japan on China. He declared that
apparently they were in retaliation
to the attitude of this country to
ward admission of the Jananese...- .
WASHINGTON, Sept. 8. Since
the senate approved last night t lie
Danish West Indies treaty, viitually
the only thing that stood iu the way
today of the neipiisitioii of tile islands
by the United States was the ratifi
cation of the treaty by the parlia
ment of Denmark, the lower house of
which already has approved it. This
action of tho senate- came almost
simultaneously wilh the appointment
by the Danish parliament of a com
mittee to consider tho negotiations for
the sale of the islands to tho United
Slates. .'
Tlie treaty provides for the pur
chase of the Danish West Indies for
L'."),n!lll,(MM). Senator Norris sought
j ineffectually to amend the treaty so
as to make the purchase price $10,
UIMI.OIIO. In accordance with diplomatic cus
tom, the state department today for
mally notified the Danish government
of ratification of Hie treaty by the
senate. Officials feel that prospects
of its acceptance by the upper houso
of the Danish parliament is enhanced
by the prompt action of the senate.
