SPRINGFIELD, Mo., July 30. The
cases of seven persons charsed with
kidnaping conspiracies and brought
here from St. l.oui and Stockton,
Missouri, have been set for trial on
the second Monday in September in
the Webster county court at Marnh
flald. Missouri. Tho prisoners were
brought here for
request for a change of venue which
was granted.
Congress lias appropriated $040,000,000 for an airship
program, and America will shortly lead the world in air
shijis. Many thousands of young aviators are in training
at the various aii'shijt bases.
We have successfully floated a two billion dollar pojm
lar loan and have advanced our allies $1.37.j,IXXJ,UO0 -for
sujijilies lmught in America. We have raised $100,000,000
fur lfed ( 'loss work. We have established an embargo nj'oii
shijimrnts to neutrals and hope soon to have under way
the building of an immense fleet of merchantmen.
For a peaeedoving and peaeeable nation, we have made
a good start, an augury of what this country is capable of
d'ling when it shakes off its lethargy and uses its full
strength and power in the jirosecution of the war when
it filially makes war its main business. We are an impa
tient people and seek to have things done in a hurry and
would succe'ed were it not for the kaiser's friends in the
senate, fighting successfully for delay.

AMNESTY TO POLES
LONDON-, July 30. The editor of
the Polish Review, published in Lon
don, has received from A. R. D. Let-
infky, chairman of the committee ap
pointed by thte Russian provisional
government to settle affair in Poland,
a telegram saying that the govern
ment has granted amnesty to Polish
prisoners of war who are Russian sub
jects and who fought against Russia
in thte Polish legions and that they
will not be treated as rebels.
All Polish civilian prisoners. In
cluding Prussian and Austrian sub
jects, will he treated as subjects of
foreign states which are not at war
with Russia and they will recover
personal and property rights. The
telegram also gives details of various
privileges granted Polish war pris
oners.
Camp Kelly, South San Antonio,
Tens, tJd Areo Squadron V. S. Army.
To the Kditor: Having lived in
Medford for about six years. I wish
to write you a few lints about the
aviation camp here.
We have the largest aviation camp
In the world here, consisting of 45
squadrons of 10 4 men in each squad
ron, i
They have been sendine men away.
About eight squadrons left for across
the water and others for Dayton and
Detroit.
You first reach Camp Kelly by car
line from San Antonio and then by
auto. Reaching the field you see l.0
machines all in a square in hangars,
some of them the latest Curtis models.
Also a French war plane. They have
a French captain here instructing
men. You see eight or ten men in the
air all doing loop the loop and tail
slide and all the fancy flying. Mr.
Stentson, a civilian, one of the coun
try's greatest fliers, was an instructor
but has left for somewhere, we do not
know where.
Tomorrow they are going to take
the war plane for the first time.
People ought to be here at mesl
time and see the way they feed 6000
men. It would be someth'ag they
won't see in a lifetime.
Imagine 6500 men here, and the
way they take care of them. Three
doctors for the crowd. Few men
have the mumps and measles and they
send them to quarantine and others
have the tonsilitis and they send them
to the hospitals.
July 4 they had the worst storm
they ever had, wind blowing fifty
miles an hourand rain coming down
in buckets full. Men running around
yelling and laughing and swimming
around. They have some storms In
Texas.
When boys write home and tell of
all their experiences of putting ma
chines together, yon ought to see the
other side. Here they are learning to
be America's greatest aviators and ex
pect to go to France. But they are
called fp the morning and each has a
pick and shovel and is put to digging
ditches and sewers. A sight you'd
give a million to see.
Some men who never had a pick or
