HAN FnANCISCO, March 11.
Tho reorganization plan of tho Call-

which Ik doslgnod to reduco Its In
debtedness from $16,226,486 to $7.
476,252 wbh approved today by tbn
ntnto railroad commission., Tho re
organization plan calls for tho sain
ot tho California-Oregon company ta
a refinancing organization of tho
aamo name.
At a meeting hold In tho Chdm-
bor of Commerce rooms last night,
thn auto dealers of thin city decided
to throw tholr united strength Into
an otfort to mako a conspicuous suc
cess of tho anto show to bo hold
horo on March 20, 21, and 22, Paul
T. O'Dowd acted as chairman of tho
mooting, and was continued aa pres

y rolcasod tho promoters from tholr

motors company to uso Its garago
for tho 'show was accoptcd. This Is
tho only chango In the show pro
gram. THE ASTER
Aftor all, tho happy contest to
eolect tho official flowor for Klam
ath has shown conclusively how
many flowers bloom to perfection
horo, nnd how nlcoly the ladles
choso n list ot candidates. Thu con
test has bcon harmonious and ha
attractod much attontlon to a sub
ject hitherto too llttlo considered
horo, although many housewives
without ronporatlon havo grown
numerous beautiful flowers, and
soloctod varlotloa with consldorublo
caro.
Tho newspaper publicity given to
cortaln varlotlos In this friendly
competition han not so far mention
ed cither tho nater, phlox, or colum
bine, nil hardy and splondid flow
ra and provon at homo In our tor
tile soil and under our summer sun.
Tho astor, especially aster chlnen
sis, cannot woll bo heaton for vari
ety, ot colors, vigor of growth, and
for long nnd Into period of bloom,
though not fragraht. It In ono of
thoso flowers that happily ylolda
woll to good trontmont, yot doos
not dotorlorato much with neglect.
Aa a Iato bloomor, oven aftor au
tumn has bogun to chill tho air, it
Is almost without a poor.
Friendly competition, yes! Tho
writer knows that tho lato rotor
onco to tho goldon glow, ono ot tho
most popular, aud deservedly popu
lar candidates, with roforenco to
Its color, was mado In tho spirit ot
humorous irony by a Herald writer
who la a groat admlror of that
Pflowor and who oscllntod In Judg-
n on t which to contond for, tho
golden glow or tho Shasta Daisy.
It tho golden glow should win, and
such may really bo tho rosult, no
ono will bo more loyal to thoquoon
oloct than that samo wrltor.
Really, thoro la a now( spirit In
the Klamath atmosphoro.and the
pooplo aro going to harmonize moro
happily than thoy over Havo in tho
past, at loast since tho oarly days
of privation and war, when they had
o stand together for their very ex
istence. When tho Klamath queen
ot flowers comes into her own. no
portion ot our grrfat and rich basin
vill bo without her presence, and
tho defeated candidates will all bo

Siemen's Reorganization Plan
Culminates in the Fullest
Success
Monday morning at 10 o'clock tho
doors ot tho First Stato nnd Savings
bank will swing open nnd buslnoss
will bo resumed after suspension of
60 days. It will mark tho end ot
ono of tho most rnmarkablo periods
In tho banking history of Oregon
ono ot tho most romarkablo in tho
history of any state, for no ono has
been fouml whoso memory can re
call an Instnnco that will parallol
that surrounding tho closing and
oponlng ot this Institution. During
tho period that has olapscd alnco tho
bank closed, tho pooplo who trusted
their funds to tho First Stato and
Savings bank novcr doubted for a
moment but that It would ro-opon
and It has boon this confidence that
played tho important part In the re
sumption. So great was this confi
dence, not only among tho deposi
tors, but among thoso who wero not
associated with tho bank, that when
It was announced that tho capital
would bo Increased to aid its re
oponlng, tens of thousands ,of dol
lars poured In ,ovor 60 per cent of
which was from pooplo who were
not patron at the time ot suspen
sion. And tho end Is not 7ct. If
Monday docs not seo a demonstra
tion of cnthuslaam that will live in
tho memorlea ot thoso fortunato en
ough to bo thoro when tho bank
opens its doors, The Herald will ho
moro surprised than It has yot been.
It will havo aa its first vlco presi
dedont Marshall Hooper Oregon's,
assistant state superintendent of
banks and rocognlzed aa in tho very
front ranks of the leading bankora
of tbq stato. Hla Idontlty with tho
bank aa a stcokholdcr puts a stamp
upon tho solidity and solvency of tho
bank that words cannot convey, for
Mr. Hooper, as a state official, ex
amined Into ovory asset ot tho In
stitution and it it woro not every
thing that a bank should be, he
would not becomo a part ot It. Hla
coming means his turning down a
offer from tho banking department
of California, his ability having been
recognized by tho officials ot that
stato that has boon sought after
for nearly a year and finally con
sented to accopt tho offer, until he
found that ho could bocomo con
nected with tho First Stato and Sav
ings bank.
It will havo back ot It tho sup
port ot ono ot tho oldest nad strong
est financial Institutions ot tho
state support that comes bocauso
Investigation rovoals that the First
Stato and Savings bank dosorves tho
support it glvea and bocauso it is
financially sound beyond tho slight
est doubt.
1 It will havo back ot It tho actlvo
moral and financial support ot two
hundrod and fifty-eight stockhold
ers, practically all ot whom aro
rosldonts of Klamath county.
Qroatost of all, It will havo back
ot It tho contldonco of tho pooplo of
tho county, n contldonco that opon
cd tho doors, n contldonco that plac
ed at tho disposal ot Its offlcors
9240,000 in cash and that would,
It conditions demanded it, moro
than doublo that sum.
Captain J. W. Siemens returned
'from Portland last ovenlng. It was
announced from his offices yester
day that ho would not reutrn until
this ovenlng, this stop having boon
necossary to avoid nnothor demon
stration In his honor, plans for
which wero bolng formed when It
waa loarnod that he was roturulng.
It was not tho deslro' of thoso Inter
ested in tho rcoponlng of tho bank
that any unnecessary enthusiasm
should be Indulged In at this time.
It being felt that the time for that
would be when the hank, opened.
While iu Portland Captain Sie
mens concluded the arrangements
that will insure the bank against a
rocurrenco ot any such contingencies
that necessitated the suspension 60
days ago. Ho also arranged with
tho bonding companion that tarnish
ed tho bonds given aa security for
tho various funds deposited In the
bank such as tho county money,
and government tunda of alt kinds
to lot them stand as they always
havo been and no domand will bo
mado for their renewal or change
Jn their conditions. This agreement
was ontorcd into in writing and at
focts every bond tho bank has. Thin
action moans the removal of the last
barrier that had to bo overcome and
meant a further approval ot tho sol
vency of tho bank and assurance ot
continued confidence by one ot the
most critical class ot financial In
stitutions In tho world bonding
companies.
In thla city today aro J. B. En
yard, representing tho Bankers Dis
count company of Portland and
Frank Soeds, representing the First
National bank of San Francisco, and
tonight Bob Howard, representing
Ladd & Tllton of Portland, will ar
rive Tho presence of these men
noeds no explanation. Their being
here speaks for Itself and Is an add
ed testimonial to tho aonndnoaa of
the First Stato and Savings bank.
All waa hustlo and hustle, around
tho Siemens offices throughout the
day. Tho old members of the bank
ing force wero In and out getting In
structions and preparing for the
great event. Over in tho bank the
palntors and decorators were rush
ing their work, so oa to bo out ot
tho way on Monday morning. Cap
tain Siemens would not tako tlmo
to issuo a statement beyond the
brief ono, "tho bank will open at
10 o'clock Monday morning."
Riverside Pupils
Examined By Nurse
Tblrty-tbrco pupils from the Riv
erside school wero examined yester
day and Wednesday by Miss L"ydia
Frlcko, county health nurse. Tho
pupils wore choson by the teachers
as bolng obviously defective. Miss
Frlcko states that at present sho Is
not taking tlmo to. o,ovor the entire
enrollment of each school, aa the
work started so late this year that It
Is nocesaary to tako tho worst cases
first and start corrective meaaros.
Partial examination has been made in
tho Control school.
All dotoctlvo pupils are given a
note to tholr paronts, noting tho
troublo and pointing out the remedy.
It la neither compulsory for the pu
pils to submit to examination or for
tho parenta to tako the advlso ot the
nurse, but Miss Frlcke states that ap
parently many aro glad to avail them
solvps of tho service. Defective teeth,
ospoclally, aro receiving attention,
and dontlsts roport great Increase In
their work among children.
T Personal Mention

Swan Lake district was in the city
yesterday on buslnoss.
Tho debato at tho high school,
