a day In early April, 1917, about
10:30 in the evening.
The recent dethronement of Czar
'Nicholas and overthrow of autocracy
in' Russia is a source of great satis
faction to Dr. Joseph Goldman, for
mer Jewish rabbi In Russian Poland,
who will address a public meeting in
the Baptist church of Medford next
Monday evening, and will also deliver
addresses on present and past condi
tions In Russia at the Christian
church in Ashland on Sunday fore
noon, afternoon and evening.
He has witnessed and suffered the
hardships formerly inflicted upon the
Jews In his country, and until four
years ago had always lived In Russia,
having been a rabbi for ten years.
Immediately on coming to this coun
try about four years ago he began the
study of English and since then has
lectured (to 100,000 pcopio in eight
states.
Every time Dr. Goldman thinks of
the deposed czar and government he
gnashes his teeth that Is what few
teeth he has left, for fourteen of his
teeth were kicked out by a Cossack
during the big Klshenof massacre.
"That's one reason why I am so
glad that the great deBpot Nicholas
was deposed," said Dr. Goldman to
day. Wow Russian Poland is under
TWO TRAVELING
ELDERS ELECTED
Slav J7 Hishon Rcllcw opene.i the
second sittinir of the Southern Ore
Sn conference, now being held in
the Free Methodist church on the
corner of Tenth and Ivy streets, with
the usual devotional exercises, after
which the liishop delivered a very in
teresting address on the subject of
war, which wns jrrcnlly appreciated
by nil who were present. The litisi-
n '-s of the niominir sitting consists
largely of the reports of the preach
ers and tlieir work.
It wns decided to man the work of
the conference the coming year with
two traveling elders. On the first
ballot Revs. D. D. Hodge nnd K. 11
Dollarhide were elected traveling eld
ers, Kev. Dodge will probably serve
the Jlcdford district nnd Rev: Hollar
hide will probably serve the Kose
bnrg district. There will be preach
ing every uftcnioon and evening thi
week nnd nil lire invited to attend
these services.

Germany's rule, and next will come
Kaiser Wilholm's overthrow. He is
the samo kind of a despot as Nich
olas, but I am of the firm belief that
now that the United States has come
Into the war Germany is sure to meet
her Waterloo.
'I know it Is almost Impossible for
American people to realize the for
mer Russian barbarism and cruelly
toward all people In Russia who 'did
not believe in the Greek church, espe
cially the Jews. Under the rule of
Alexander HI every intelligent mind
was pressed down hard, and over 10,-
000 persons from all calsses, all re
ligions and all nations were Bent to
Siberia for no other offense than that
of being educated. It was just the
samo under Nicholas II, who haB just
been deposed.
"Who could ever forget Kishenof
that saw that awful massacre, in
1902, when the Black Hundred, an
organized mob under protection of
the czar's soldiers, killed 25,000
Jews and plundered 100,000 stores.
When the slaughter was going on I
went to protect an old rabbi, a dear
friend of mine, and a Cossack kicked
out 14 of my teeth and otherwise
abused me. However I was very glad
to escape with my life.
"In one day of mob violence in Rus
slan Poland I have seen 300 bodies of
Jews III the street killed and mutilat
ed with inhuman cruelty. And all
this killing went under the Bpcclal
command of the czar.
"The czar is no more. Hut do you
think that Kaiser Wilhclm 1b a better
and more corciful ruler to strangers
of the Jews. No! He Is worse than
the czar because he acts under civil
izatlon. He kills more people with a
smile on his face than the Russian
czar did in his Ignorance. Germany
took Poland and rules It. Now where
are the Jews In Poland today? The
German army drove them out from
their homes and the Jew lives in no
mnn's land. But Germany will meet
her Waterloo soon and all will he
well."
A ,very pleasant luncheon was serv
ed In the Ashland pavilion yesterday
noon, by the ladles of Medford and
Ashland, for the visiting delegates to
the Tri-State Good Roads association.
J. A. Westerlund, president of the
association, presided and introduced
the speakers, who Included George F.
Cotterill, state highway engineer, of
Washington, Herbert Nunn, state
highway engineer of Oregon, and
Mrs. Winnie Braden, secretary of the
Polk County Good Roads association.
Mr. Cotterill was particularly en
thusiastic over the development of
the mineral springs III Ashland and
declared that Hhey were certain to
prove one of the most valuable re
sources of southern Oregon. He com
plimented the public-spirited people
of Ashland for.their energy and pro
gressive methods, and advised an ex
tensive advertising campaign through
out the country and Pacific coast.
State Highway Engineer Nunn
drove over the Pacific Highway to
the summit and was most enthusias
tic over the road. "You have here,"
he Buid, "one of the finest scenic
drives In the state; and the road, con
sidering the weather, is in excellent
condition. No permanent highway tn
the state can" approach this splendid
mountain boulevard, with the excep
tion of the Columbia highway, and I
believe the construction of your road
Is equal, If not superior, to that. We
will start work the latter part of the
month on completing the road to the
California line; also will assist In the
completion of the Ashland hill cut
off. When the work is done, south
ern Oregon will have a thoroughfare
which will he a source of pride to
every citizen of the state."
Mrs. Braden explained the Impor
tance of women working for the
$6,000,000 fcood road bond issue, and
suggested that the women's clubs or
ganize a campaign In the school
houses of the country districts. Show
the people what the good road bonds
really mean, said she, and it will be
endorsed by an overwhelming majority.
LIBERT? LOAN
PROCEEDS IN BANKS
WASHINGTON', May 38 Pro
ceeds of the liberty loan, the treasury
department announced today, will be
dcK)sited in bunks and trust com
panies which have qualified ns dopos-
luries which forward subscriptions
of at least ,$100,000. Where possi
ble the other financial institutions
forwarding a less amount of sub
scriptions will be treated similarly
later. The government will pay two
percent interest.
The government's apparent inten
tion to advance approximately $1,
000,000,000 to the nllies before July
first, $070,000,4000 of which already
has been paid, is reflected in a re
quest of Secretary McAdoo to the
banks to fake as large amounts of
treasury certificates m possihlo 'and
at least equal to fifty percent" of
the payment they will have to make
on subscriptions.

THROAT OF WAN
PARSONS, Kas., May IS. The
police tonight spirited Dr. R. 13.
Smith, a negro physician, out of town
and lodged him in the county jail at
Oswego. He wa sarrested In connec
tion with the atempt yesterday to
pour acid down Hie throat of Mrs,
Asa Smith. The assisting prosecut
ing attorney tonight related that Mrs.
Smith informed him that the man
alleged to have committed the act.
accused her of bringing an estrange
ment between himself and her hus
band. Mr. Smith Is said to have fi
nanced the physician's medical course
and to have befriended him Jrom
youth.
A reward of $1000 was offered by
Ml. Smith for the man's capture a
few hours before he was taken. It
was said tonight that Mrs. Smith's
bums prabably would prove fatal.
WASHINGTON, May IS. All
available American trans-Atlantic
tonnage for the time being will be
used to transport supplies to Russia,
France, and Italy under an agree
ment about to be made by the Amer
ican government with the allies.
Great Britain has assurred the Uni
ted States that stio can carry enough
supplies in her own ships to meet the
needs of the United Kingdom and
perhaps spare- some vessels to sup
plement American tonnage in supply
ing the other countries.
No general agreement as to appor
tionment as to shipping among the
countries most tn need has been work
ed out, but a definite program prob
ably will be decided on In the near
future. Meantime the shipping board
Is putting the repaired German ships
into service as fast as possible, char
tering them to the allied govern
ments for single trips. The govern
ment is besieged with requests for
tonnage to take coal to France and
Italy and general supplies to Russia.
Approval by the shipping hoard of
diversion of coastwise ships to trans-
Atlantic service has brought a flood
of offers from coastwise companies
for permission to put their vessels to
carrying supplies to the allies. These
offers will be accepted by the board
where It appears removal of ships
from coastwise runs wilt not work
hardships on communities ser.yed by
the vessels. It Is probable also that
some ships may 1e withdrawn from
other foreign runs to be put in the
trans-AtlanUe trade, although the
shipping board Is inclined to e ex
tremely careful in this reBpect to pre
vent disarrangement of normal for
eign trade.

I never tasted
a Flakier
Pie Crust
(Report No. 9) By the manager
!Here Is my first ex
perience with Cotto
lene pie crust:
One night, early this
month, our Lancaster
County cook, Alice, an
nounced: "You all are
going tohave a real bUt k
bcrry pie tonight. I used
a jar of berries from Mr.
David's box, and Cot
tolene." I was glad she had
used Cottolene. 1 want
ed to see how it worked.
But I was sorry later
that Alice liked that pie.
We four bachelors left
nothing for her but the
big blue pie plate.
Ly nn,who comes f rom
Lexington, Ky., said it
reminded him of the
blackberry pies his old
mammy used to make.
And Dave, who is in the
telephone business, got
rid of his before we had
a chance to say "Hello",
I never ate a Thanks
giving pie at home that
beat that one,
I noticed the lower
crust especially. It was
light and flaky. I at
every bit of it, which is
a thing I seldom do with
lower crusts.
After it was all over,
we cast an unanimous
vote for Cottolene. We
have used wholesome
Cottolene ever since.
Only last night Alice
made a Cottolene apple
pie that was a wonder.
