w'Col. WaHhburn'H speech followsr .
Santa Monica, Cul., February, 1921,
To tho members of the Loncoln club
of Juckson county, nt banquet as
sembled: As president of the Lincoln club, I
regret my Inability to be present at
the seventh annual banquet when we
have so recently received the good
tidings of great Joy, which shall 13 to
all people.
My regrets are all the Keener and
mnro pronounced when 1 realize that
for the first tlmo In tho club's his
tory you are ablu to sit at the groan
ing tables of Kmtl Mohr and rejoice
over the most sweeping republican
victory in a period of sixty years.
In relinquishing tho office with
which you honored ino a year ago. I
desiro to express my disappointment
nt having accomplished so litllo us Its
president.
Hut I am able to extract somo con
solation from tho fact that another
president is also about to retlru with
a record which for paucity of real
achievement 1b even more appalling
than my own.
Despite tho fact that during my
tenure of office 1 may have dono those
things which I ought not to havo dono
and havo left undono thoso things
which I ought to havo done, It is a
pleasure to record that othors have
not been equally lux, and I desiro to
pay trlbut t tho splendid efforts of
those Individual members of the club
who assisted so mightily In the re
moval of the democratic tumor that
was fast bringing national debility to
our body politic.
I feel assured that when tho un
biased historian of two generations
hence rocords tho story of tho repub
lican victory of 1020, ho will unhesi
tatingly nserlbo that victory.
First To democraatlc mistakes and
mismanagement.
Second To tho dignity, poise, wide
vision and rare common sense of tho
republican candlduto.
Third To tho wizard like skill and
marvelous nstutencas of Will H. Kays,
and
Fourth To tho patriotic and never,
ceasing nctlvlty of tho Lincoln club of
Jackson county, Oregon.
During tho pust seven yeara tho
work of tho Lincoln club has been
largoly that of criticism.
And of all thoso indulging in fault
finding and rebuko I, perhapB, have
been not tho least conspicuous.
It remains for us now ,to provo that
we, whllo in power, aro better able
to run this government than aro those
whom wo havo criticised when they
wero in authority.
It remains for us to show that our
chief object in. overthrowing tho de
mocracy was not
"To (turn tho rascals inside out,
"And tho outsldo ruscals In,"
but rather to put strength, efficiency
and wisdom whero thoro has been
weakness, Incompetenco and down
right foolishness.
From tho tlmo when Abraham Lin
coln Journeyed to Washington to face
n war of secession, no moro formid
able task has over confronted an in
coming administration than thai
which must bo mot now.
We havo appreciated tho magnitude
of tho undertaking. Wo havo de
clared that wo aro equal to tho emer
gency. And now Ihu republican party
must make good.
And if tho party has wllhln It the
character, onergy and honesty of pur
pose that gave Inspiration at Its birth
thero can be no doubt of tho result. -
Wo havo been given full and com
pleto authority.
For tho first time at least In eight
yeara, tho president will bo ifn un
embarrassed spokesman.
Wo must begin at onco to effect n
readjustment that will gradually re
lease us from tho abnormal conditions
urougni auout by tno war and its in
efficient administration on this side
of the Atlantic.
In the moro important posts of gov
ernment wo must at onco replaco pin
heads and rubber stamps with men
of ability.
We must sweep Into tho street of
obllvian tho thousands of loiterers,
leaches and lunkheads who encumber

BANQUET
w .. Adv.
the federal' departments, draw regu
lar pay and play pinochle during of
fice hours.
We must substitute deeds for words
no matter how chaste and excellent
the diction.
Vio must substitute a fixed policy
for drifting; direct action for dodging,
and a constant forward movement for
persistent backpedalling.
We must close the bung-hole that
was opened with a dumocrataic jimmy
and for the first time in eight years
draw what we need from tho spigot,
Wemiust stump out bolshevism,
elHe, before we know it, law, order and
tho best fruit of civilization will them
selves be stamped out.
Those disciples of I-cnlne and Trot
sky now in our midst and all others
who are eternally hostile to orderly
government, work and thrift, must be
shipped out of the country and mark
ed "charges collect."
The men who have become fat, oily
and oppulent by raising prices 100
per cent when costs have increased
only 50 per cent, should be given their
deserts by law.
Autocracy having been dethroned
as a result of the war, it should never
be re-established, either ut I'otsdam
or the White House.
For seven years we havo been twit
ting, teasing and terrifying our dem
ocratic friends by charging them with
inaction, incapacity, Ignorance, In
anity, incompetency and lnherrent dis
ability. And we have loudly pro
claimed that we can do better.
Now,- we must make good or oat
our words.
And the Lord knows that in my
own case the bill of fare would be
lopg, varied and far from appetizing.
&lt wo succeed, as I think we will,
It will work to tho glory of ,tho re
public and the happiness of Its people.
, If we fail, then, just as surely as
the sun rises over Jtuxy Ann to bathe j
in splendir the garden spot of the I
world, Just so surely will be again!
assemble at a Lincoln club banquet
for tho express, purpose of firing hot!
verbal shot at a democrataic party ;
that has been restored to power.
If such should come to pass, then
may tho Lord have mercy upon us.
COL. H. C. WASHUUHN.
LONDON. Tho first detailed au
thentic account of tho killing of IT
auxiliary cadets of the Hoynl Irish con
stabulary by a party of Sinn Feinoru
near Macroom, Ireland on November
28 lias just been obtained from tho sole
survivor of tho ambushed party, Lieu
tenant K P. Fordo. Tho lieutenant has
recovered from his wounds In a Lon
don military hospital. All provlous
accounts of tho uutUr have been based
on deductions, In tho absonce of re
ports from eye witnesses.
Ltoutenant Fordo suffered a bullet
wound in the hoad and was clubbod
with the butt of a rlflo and left for
doart.
lie says that the two motor cars
carrying the cadets wore attacked as
they were passing between rocky de
clivities on either side just as the
leading car rnn Into a ditch which had
Been prepared for It. Many of those in
the first car wore woundod by the first
fire from forces concealed behind huge
rocks. ,
Thoso In the second car came up
and fought until tho last man fell
wounded. Forde was lying wounded
when he hoard the order to cease tiro.
Ho adds: "Then a largo numbor of
attackers from both aides rushed into
the road. They wore tho uniform of
British soldiers and handled us all
very roughly, not excepting tho dead.
After knocking us about thoy called
on us all to stand up.
"Two of tho parly wero able to get
to their feet and were immediately
shot down a4 close range by the
'shinnors.' Ono of the cadots near mo
groaned and turned over. One of the
civilians plunged a bayonet into his
back. I muttered Bomolhlng and ho
turned to mo and after cursing me,
said it would bo my turn next. I could
sco the others going through tho cloth
ing of the endots who wero being bru
tally treated. Ono of the civilians
tried to pull a gold ring from my fin
ger but failed. Tho next thing I ro
niombor was when ono of thorn rollod
me over roughly, to seo 1 suppose,
whether I was dead.
"When I woko up it wns pitch dark,
iho ambushors had retired to their po
sitions and occasionally fired a tow
si.ots." .

MASSACRE OF
IRISH CADETS

MIS. OFFERS NO
ALIBI,
E
The Medford high basketball quintet
returned yesterday from Hoseburg
where they completed the first two
games of the southern Oregon cham
pionship series between Ashland,
Koseberg and Medford. There Is a dif
ference of opinion as to tho vjctors of
rriuay nignrs tut. At tne end of tno
first half the local tossers led their
adversaries 15 to 8, but In the Becond
period the Orange and Black squad
through a series of clever plays, tied
the score, 19 to 19, according to the
Medford scorer. Roseburg, however,
had the score 19 to 20 for their team
and the controversy was settled six
nilnuteB before the end of that period
by an announcement by Cecil Illack,
reforee, who called tho score a tie.
During the last minutes of play Med
ford made a field basket and free toss
or 3 points, while Roseburg made two
points on a field basket leaving the
score, according to Medford, 22 to 21.
In the second game, however, the
Roseburg hoopers showed some of the
cleverest and fastest basket work ever
displayed on their floor and defeated
the local men 30 to 19. During this
game Whipple, playing center for
Roseburg, was a whirlwind and the
Medford men, although they played a
good brand of ball, were played off
their feet. Coach Kluin has no excuses
for the defeat of the secoiid. night.
According tq him the.. "Medford men
played a good brand of ball but the
Koseburg lineup was faster." Since
the local hoop:tean,. is confident that
they will show up. tbelr, victors when
the Roseburg squad plays here Wed
ncBday and Saturday of tills week the
people of Medford can look forward to
two fast Karnes.
Tno Medford girls Boxtet played the
Roseburg girls off tholr feet in both
games lant week winning by a score of
33 to 11 In the first game and 33 to 13
in the second. In these games the
Roseburg girls admit that they wore
unable to fathom the various plays and
understand the style of play of tho
Red and Black aggregation. The line
up for tho boys' game was:
medford. . Roseburg.

GERMANS PLAN

BERLIN. Students of economic
subjects assert that at least 5,000,000
ilermans are preparing to leave tho
Fatherland tor the United States, Mex
ico and South American states as soon
as they are able to raise passage
money, or obtain admission in the case
of the United States.
A majority of the would-be emi
grants have expressod a preference to
go to South America.
. Official and unofficial quarters have
displuyed considerable uneasiness over
the class of men who are now emigrat
ing or preparing to emigrate Tho
hoad of the government Immigration
office said:
"The most able-bodied, enterprising,
stalwart sons of, Germany are leaving.
ino very poor, the communists, the
radicals, the bolshevik!, generally are
remaining with us. It Is tho family of
some substance which is moving out."
One cause of this emigration is con
ceded to be tho war taxes and particu
larly the income tax which virtually
prohibits the salaried man from laying
something asldo for tho rainy day.
Thoso men generally no longer patron
Izo the banks. They are hoarding a
lit t lo bit of salary each month, against
tho day they can emigrate.
In spite of tho general agreement
among political economists thut Ger
many Is overcrowded mid that unless
radical readjustments are made with
In ono year the nation will be able to
support only 60 percent of tho present
population, suggestions havo been
made that tho government take imme
diate steps to regulate tho number nnd
quality of emigrants. With this in
view a new law is being drafted.
It Is argued that this tldo of emigra
tion could be turned back upon Ger
many to good purpose. Germany's
arid lands, if irrigated or drained
would be capable of supiwrtlng 10,000,-
000 additional persons. It Is said, and
the government has been urged to
mako these lands available to the
numbers now flocking Into the cities.
Dr. Max Hlrsch who, writing In the
Berlin Tageblatt, says: "Germans who
aro preparing to emigrate at this tlmo
should, for the sake of tho Fatherland
reconsldor." Unrestricted emigration
eventually will result in a weakened.
probably aenemlc, German raco, he
believes. In vlow of the character of
the men who ore leaving.
Others fear the oxoxlus will result In
an "impaired German culture" nnd
suggest tho advisability of stato aid for
tho Intellectuals who have been hard
est hit by economic conditions.
Under the presiiit German law an
emigrant Is permitted to take out with
him 30,000 marks, tax-free.

sized amount of house work before
she could start out, getting a neigh
bor to bake her 'bread after she had
it ready for the oven and also danced
at tho Lincoln Tea In tho afternoon

Peerless Uakory, has recently pur
chased a new Heo "speed wagon" to

vorable comment because of. its
smooth operation and beauty. It has
a capacity of luO loaves of bread with

Hodenhelmer to better handle his
Ann land nnd Grants. Pass trade an well

HIGH PRAISE FOR
UNCLE SAM'S HELP
IN INDIAN CRISIS
LONDON', Feb. 14 Newspapers here
today gave considerable attention to
the address of Lord Reading, viceroy
of India before the English speaking
union on Saturday night during which
he told of the United States opening
its treasury reserves to send silver to
India during the war. The newspapers
expressed the liveliest appreciation of
this action which brought considerable
relief to England at a time when af
fairs in India appeared to be critical.
"Remembrance of actB like these,"
says the Loudon Times, "should enable
both peoples to judge a great deal of
Ill-considered talk with becoming con
tempt." ....
The Telegraph says the transaction
was most eloquent of the value of
American good will toward this coun
try, adding:
"When it comes to a pinch, even In
war time, such an act never could have
been done if a deep lying sentiment
bad not been there to further It."
