WEDNESDAY', HKPT. 15, 1M0 OF THE ESCH It may be emphatically and un equivocally denied that the transpor tatloa act, which li sometime re ferred to asthe..Eich-Cummlns bill, guarantees the fallroadi an aianred Income of 6 per cent, or any per caaUfe whatever, beginning with September 1," 120. Prior to tkat time the majority of the railroad had contract with the government guaranteeing them the same com sensation they received under Ind eral control. Section 412 of tka transportation act requires the commlMlon to make rate which will give under boaaotj efficient and economical manage ment a fair return on the Talue of'tk railway property used In the servile of the public.

Smart brogues, stylish walking boots and ox-' fords, pumps and slippers for the formal and semi formal social affairs of the season. They'reall of the famous JOHN KELLY quality.

When that fund reaches S per cent of the value Of the carrier property, the carrlor mar retain Ita half of the excess and use It for any lawful purpose. No where doe the act guarantee that the rate fixed under the act will produce any detlnlto rate of return era the Investment. It la not even claimed by the Interstate commerce commission in Its recent order that the Increases It makes will have that effect. It Is only said In effect that It I hoped that they will. The aovcrnment doea not guaran tee any of the outstanding bond or -nrlitia nt thn carrier either aa to Interest or principal. It doe not undcrtako to. make up any such amounts or any operating deficit from the fund created by tho excess Ubovo referred to. The carrier to whom that fund may be loaned are entirely within tho commission' dU cretlon. I AT THE THEATERS I o . ' "12:10" I a new picture, iljk'aa absolutely no similarity with any photoplay thus far produced. Laid In France beside the beauti ful river Seine, the opening scene of "12:10" reveal an aged sculptor, Fernando, with bla daughter, Marie. Despairing in hla struggle to gain a living he deserts his child and pluagea Into the river to end his trouble. He leavea Marie an orphan. In her frenxied search for her father. Slarie stumbles upon Lord Chatter tbn, who adopt her and takea her to hi home InEngland. There Marie become the sole delight of the aging man and hi heiress. Her loveliness arouse the passion of Lord Chatter ton' secretary and Marie becomes Involved In a series of complications that make "12:10" the greatest mys tery picture of the year. '''She, in order to Inherit Lord Chat terton's fortune, must spend 24 hottra from midnight In a lonely castle beside the bedside of her dead patron In silent prayer. As the hand of the clodc "pofnj. to 12:10, the dpor opens, the bed cover move,, and thl begin a mystery that would baffle a Sherlock Holmes. It will be the attraction at the Lib erty theater tonight. It Is estimated that upward of K20, 000,000 women are eligible r to rrote In the coming presidential elec tion in the United States. , .- - . .,---,.,., .-in.rLan.n.ru uuuLruwnaium.il IKl tVUflNQ HtJULD, KEEPJIK5E QUT OF f ST MAMON, O., Sept. IS. In an ad dress yesterday to a delegation of Callfornlans, Senator Harding said In part as follews: "Americans, I greet you who come from far placos with deep gratitude tor the honor you have done tho causo I represent, which I believe is the cause of all the people of America. "There Is no sectionalism In tho United States. "'America first.'

"Lei us not allow those who would like, to retain tho autocratic powor which the war put into their bands to decelvo frco Americans with the delusion that 'democracy' painted as a sign over their works conceals the fact that thoy have robbed us ot true democracy. Thoy have set up a one man dictatorship which they, of course, desire to perpetuate, 'and which finds In their various spokes men the 'expression 'we ire In full accord.' "L eonfesa little patience with those who complain about that which they choose to call a senate 'olig archy. Those who prefer autocratic, personal government to the represen tative Institution which waa Inherit ed, naturally oppose tho senate exer cising Ita constitutional functions. The senate la not popular with thoej who attempted to merge Inspiring nationality in paralysing fnternatlon allty; it I not In "favor with those who dreamed world government backed by a military alliance, to be preferable to the exercise of Amer ican conscience.

Hut It also InvolvcH tho obligations of that group cf state to the notion. 'There are those who Incline to raise alarm because of the dangers which lurk In racial difference. I do not say racial inequalities but racial differences. I am ever ready to recognize Uhat the civilization of Japan older than ours; that her people' have a proud and honorable tradition; that tbey have engaged In a change from Oriental to modern custom of business and government with amazing ability and that they have f stalwart, unflinching honor, bo.th In armed defense of their right and in the fulfillment of their Inter national promises. "In spite of the, honor of a people and the great measures of contribu tion tbey make to tho world's ad vancement, It is conceivable that they may be so different In 'racial charac teristics or In manner of life or prac tice from another people of equal honor and achlexemonta'that no mat ter whether It be on the soil of one or upon the soil of the other, thesq dlf ferancea without railing any question of inequality, may create, aa I be SAYS HARDING KLAMATH PALLS, OREGON lieve Jhey .have .created, upon our const, without blame to either sliio, a friction that must bo rocognltod.

To mo it appears that a situation which might precipi tate violence, oven tho violence of a few irresponsible men, Is a situation which threatens gravo International consequences. The cost of ono small outbreak might bo an incalculable disaster to both nations." County club work waa -the chief topic at tho chamber ot commerce luncheon at the Rex cafe today. It became necessary last night, on ac count of temporary shortsgc of help at the White Pelican, to -witch the meeting to tho Rex. Despite short notl.ee a flno repast was served snil' more than fifty member and gucsU enjoyed It thoroughly. Frank Sexton, county club lender, explained the Importance of tho work and the progress ot three jours In Klamath county. Klamntli sowlnic and calf clubs lead the state. Moro than 200 boys and girl aro enrolled. They are getting not only practical training in different lines but tbn foundation for a business career. This Inst was proved when Dale West, a club member, followed Mi Sexton. Dale got two of tho tho oughbred Shorthorn calve last Lsprlng. They cost about f 300 apiece and a few weeks ago ho turned down a bona fide offer of $1,000 for otif. The value ot tho Investment Is ob vious. Someone asked Dale what be wanted for the calf, and he answered In a flash: "fifteen hundred dollars." No takers. Tho members loudly cheered tho successful young finan cier as he sat down. 1 II. J.
