I.OS'DOX, Nov. 2f. With refer
ence to the royal pmelaniution issued
yesterday making all finaiK'ia) in
Btrumcnts contraband, it is explained
officially that the entente govern
ments frankly intend, if possible, to
prevent every tran-r.iMinn calculated
to assist the Teutonic allies to pros
ecute belligerent openilions in tiny
part of the world.
Hitherto, it is asserted, there have
been attempts by the central powers
to evade the terms of n previous
proclamation issued last April. The
official (statement adds:
"Money in the limy run wins, and
no one who realizes the power of
money can regard our action as
either illegitimate or unnecessary. As
nn indication of the vast importance
of this question, it is calculated that
sinco the allies began examining
mails to neutrals contiguous to Cler
ninny they have stopped about 30,
000,000 pounds sterling, which were
going to banks or persons in enemy
countries and including large .num
bers of subscriptions to enemy war
loans.
"If instruments transferring such
vast quantities of money to the en
emy nro not to be regarded as con
traband, it is impossible to concede
what can properly be so regarded."
The proclamation gives the follow
ing: definition of what will he consid
ered contraband : ,
"Gold, silver, paper money, secur
ities, negotiable instruments, enemies,
drafts, money orders, warrants, cou
pons, letters of credit, delegation or
advice, credit nnd debit notes or
cither documents which authorize,
cnufinn or give effect to the trans
fer of money, credit or securities."
Members of the Rogue Itlver Kifita
Protective Association in the uicel
Ins held in the library Friday even
ing, voted unanimously for an un
conditional stand for the closing of
ilogue Hlvcr to commercial flshlnfi.
In this stand, C. M. Thomas, newly
elected legislator, declared that he
will make a fight to the finish for
such a .measure.
A compromise suggested was the
limitation of commercial fishing to
tho use of drift nets, but this was
voted down and tho sloRan "no com
promise" adopted. A committee con
sisting of Messrs. Thomas, Isaacs,
Daniels, fiottlleb nnd Kwlng was nam.
cil to draft the bill, circulate petitions
and raise funds for the fight nnd if
the measure Is defeated to arrange
for presenting tho matterto the peo
ple by Initiative measure In 1 9 1 S.
C. M. Thomas and ltalph Ewins
worn elected delegates to attend tho
meeting of tho fitato Sportsmen b
League In Portland, December 3, 4.
T. B. Daniels and W. I Isaacs will
also bo on hand to urge the closing
of the river. Arrangements were also
made for tho presence ot n number
of local men ut Sulem in October,
during discussion of tho bill.
Other matters discussed and ap
proved by the meeting were for tho
closing of the season on steelhead
from November 1 to April 1. for pro
tecting Chinese pheasants of the val
ley and to provide a closer deer law,
inasmuch as game wardens state that
there are nt present hundreds of
barren does In the hills. Cutting the
fifteen days in August from tho open
season was suggested.
Funds for the fight for the closed
river will be raised by tho sale of
1517 membership curds at from $1
to $2ii ionrh.

The dam of the Calli'urnh'.-Orogon
Pov. ei Company, now under con
struction across the Klamath river
ii.'-ar Copco two mlh.-i1 fron. the Ore
gon line, will be 12 fee: hih, ii.'.O
feet thick at the water line, '.0 feet
wide on toil and 4 00 tc-'t In le.igth
between the sides of th can on.
The foundation of the dam extends
12S feet below the water level of the
river and over 15,000,000 pounds cf
cement have been used In Its con
struction to date.. An interesting
problem Is being solved by tho use of
volcanic cinders to supply the sand
clement of the concrete.
For a long time the engineers wore
baffled by tho fact that sand In slifft-
elentto,itantlt!es did not exist In the
neighborhood of tho rtnni, but after a
series of experiments by the chemists
of the power company nnd of the uni
versity of Cullfornin, It was ascer
tained that the volcanic cinders con
tained In a rone nearby substituted
perfectly Tor sand, making an Ideal
concrete mixture. As a result of this
discovery a great excavation cono has
been seen in tho side of the mountain
where acros of volcanic material have
been taken to the mixers above the
dam.
I.telow the dam a large power house
Is being built where two generators
with u capacity of 12.D00 horsepower
each will be Installed. In order to
handle the heavy machinery and the.
great amount of supplies required the
power company purchased the I'o
keganiu Lumber Company's railroad
which gives rail connection with the
Southern Pacific at Thrall, thirteen
miles down the Klamath river. ,

ASHLAND, Nov. 2'. Two pro
posed amendments to the city char
ter were defeated yesterday nt a
special election by substantial ma
jorities. The first provided for the
eonsolidalion of two municipal bod
ies into tho Mineral Springs nnd I'ark
commission. This was defeated by
37li to S63. The second provided for
tho reassessment nguinst. real prop
erty for improvements in cases where
initial assessments prove void or nie
defective. This also was defeated
3118 to fl'Jl. All three wards went
ngainst both amendments. About half
the normal vote was polled, and very
little interest nppeared to be mani
fested over Ihe result. The city elec
tion proper occurs on December 1(1.
Specifically, Ihe first ameud'ueut
provided for n levy of :!' j mills for
the upkeep nnd maintenance of all
the parks of the city of Ashland, the
mineral water plant mid for public
ity purposes, iucludini; the iimmuit
of $11011 heretofore paid to the Chau
tauqua, and would have nlloneil a,
levy of up to 5 mills, should it be'
deemed necessary by the city eoun-i
cil. This levy would have replaced:
n total levy of 3'3 mills, which in j
the past has been provided mills'
for parks, 1 mill for mineral water'
plant and :. mill for publicity. The J
amendment would have abolished the
park board and the springs coiumis-!
siou nnd provided for the election of,
a new board to lake over the work of
the two. (ii-eater iiiteiesi attached to'
this measure, due to the tact that its'
advocates alleged that its adoption

What
The NEW EDISON
means to you
This new invention of Edison's brings info your home the literal Re-Creation of
the art of tl.e world's great artists. The New Edison differs utterly from all talk
ing machines, in that talkinn. machines give only a partial reproduction of music,
.whereas the New Edison literally Re-creates every voice and every kind of instrument.
Its absolute fidelity to the original has
leen proved hundreds of times i ptih
lir by ditvet comparison ltcttvtvii the
living singers nnd the inMrmnenttilist-s
on the other hand and Kdison's new
invt'iilimi on the other.
Over Stm.noo nnislr lovers, nnd the
innsie t lit its of mo iv than 2O0 of Ameri
ca's leading nowspnpers have soon and
lieard tliese nMoundjii test nnd worn

fivm Kdison's iv-rmiitton of it. In other
words, they could not ftit i niilsli ono

nately to the living artists and to this
wonderful Kdlton invention.
What will you have in your home?
You ehofe your piano, your furniture,
your pictures and paintings wirh a view

The same discrimination will lead you

other articles intended for a similar use.
The Kdison Is slli;htly more costly
than an ordinary talk ins machine, hut
the difference Jn cost is insignificant,
when compared if'h 'ho difference in
quality.
