MTCDPOTvP MATH TRT1WN1!, MKIVFOR1V OKF.OOW WEHNKsPAY. .T.WTAl.Y II. 1!-JO PACE THREE TRANSFER CO. D il ARTILLERY !II Surprise, consternation and indig nation reigned among the member of Company D tf tlie Third Oregon Infantry when it became known that Captain H. A. Canaduy received an official order this morning from Ad jutant General Straffin in notifica tion of the transfer of the local com pany to the Oregcn coast artillery Bervfce battalion about to be organ ized with Captain A. J. Vance of .Medford in charge. The members of the company de clare that they will not abide by the order without putting up a strenuous light against the propesed change, and assert that much injustice will )o done the command and each man in it if such a change is made against their will. The officers of the com pany have nothing to say beyond the fact they are surprised and cannot understand why tho order should have been Issued. Aiiout the ntiddlo of December when Adjutant General Straffin and Cclonel Dentler, I'. S. army inspec tion officer, were here to inspect the company; they at the time broached the subject of a change to the coast urlillery service, saying that a bat talion of that service was about to be organized and that there was a fine opportunity for the local company to get Into it if they wished. Company I) to a man did not wish to, as was shown at the next com pany nieelinp, when they unanimous ly voted against tho suggested change, and this news was sent to the. adjutant general's office. The members of the company, which is :t federalized cemmand, say that they enlisted in the national guard by preference as' infantrymen, as mem bers of Company i), an infantry or ganization of the Third Oregon In fantry regiment, and that this at tempt to change them to artillerymen and merge tho company into a unit of tho new battalion of ccast artillery service is wrong and an injustice to them. To say that the men of the com pany are disgusted is putting it mild ly, as despito the fact that the Port land companies or the regiment have long had their full equipment the .Medford company has been plugging along fc'r six months past witii only partial equipment, and (o this day is still wearing Its old cotton uniforms and Is' without the federal uniforms and other personal clothing equip ment. There is not even one over coat in the company. ( .. The' reason for the delay In send- ing this equipment is now apparent ini view of the order just received, and the men assert that it was held back because of the contemplated change of tho company over into the coast artillery service. Jt is understood that the Ashland cttnpany of the Third Oregon is also to be transferred into the coast nrtil lery service battalion which Captain Vance is scheduled to command. .Major White of Kugene, arrived in the city today to inspert the local company tonight. Ho is commander of the Third Oregon Infantry battal ion to which the company is attached.

Sthieffcl:n has no; received any official noiifuation of her appointment on the democratic pariy national commit tee as t lie woman member f t hat committee representing (he state of Oregon, and probably will not until Dr. J. W. Mor row, Oregon memlieY of the commit tee, tv turns home from its session which was held in Washington, I). (.., this week. Uut at the lime the pros pective appointment was broached to her some time ao she agreed to ac cept it. Tho appointment of Mrs. Schieffe 1 1 il to this hiiih honor reflects credit on the wemen of Medford and south ern Oregon irrespective of politics: and all acquainted with her well known ability and capabilities nfjreo that no better selection could have Ifeen made, For years Mrs. Schief felin has been a public spirited woman of much activity in club affairs and gen eral activities. She is a former presi dent of the (i router Medfcrd club and was its secretary for several years, and is now and has been prom inent in led Oops work. She was one of the organizers and "leading members of the Women Suffrage club of Jackson ccunty. All of her adult life Mrs. Schieffe lin has been interested in politics and has always been u democrat. She was an ardent supporter of President Vih:ou in his two campaigns, worked hard for his election and made many speeches thruout the county. The notice of Mrs. Schieffelins appointment is contained in the fol lowing dispatch on .Ian. ifth from Wiashiniaon, D. C.f to a Portland newspaper,: "The democratic national commit tee yesterday declared a vacancy in i he office of assoi iate committee woman from Oregon, thereby ousting Mrs. Alexander Thompson because of a lack of harmcay with the national committeeman. Dr. .1. W. Morrow. Dr. Morrow was authorized by reso lution to name her successor, and announced he will appoint Mrs. R. Ci. Schieffelin of Medford. "The action taken by the demo cratic national committee at "Wash ington amounting, virtually, to the direct removal of Mrs. Alexander Thompson as the Oregon representa tive of tho women's bureau of the democratic national committee is the direct result of a loiij? standing feud existing between Mrs. Thompson and Dr. .T. W. Morrow, national commit teeman from Oregc-n. "Mrs. Thompson does not like Dr. Morrow a little bit and has not hesi tated to express her mind on that subject. She-now contends that the national committeeman is "st re tell ing the truth" when he says that he 'made repeated requests for her resignation." She says she was never asked to resign and that she does not consider it much of an honor to work with Dr. Morrow, anyway." MB. Try Musterole.
