FILLED HOUSE
A well filled house listened to
3a.m McKelvle. former governor
! of Nebraska, when he spoke last
night at the city nan in tne in
twHts of the Coolldge campaign.
McKelvle la a pleasing and
forceful speaker and he handled
his subject well, dealing not in
personalities but in Issues in the
main though he handed some
pretty strong ahots to W. J.
Hryan and "Brother Charlie."
A M. Collier presided at the
meeting and In bis introductory
speech spoke of his feeling of
prldfl In being a member of the
republican party with such tradi
tions of progress and liberty as
It holds. ,
When McKelvle opened up on
his subject It was with consid
eraHe of praise for the Klamath
country, frankly admitting that
until directed here make a series
of addresses he had never heard
of the place.
Th reaucnon ot me bic- "-
tlonal debt by two ana one-nan
billion dollars since the Inaugur
ation of president Harding was
atreiwed as was also the ruse or
the country from the hard times
just passed. ,,...
The mention of La Follettes
name by the speaker brought
considerable appaulse from a
group In the rear of the room and
when later repeated drew some
clever response from the speak
er. McKelvle told foe story or
the waiter In Chicago who said
he knew many who wouldsup-
pont La Follette. they neing wio
Greeks and Italians in the lodge
to which this waiter belonged.
This statement allowed the Cool
ldge supporters to get the laugh
on the La Follette forcea In the
" McKelvle is a farmer by birth
and the editor of a farm paper
in Nebraska and claims to view
all the political problems from
the standpoint of a fanner, con
tending that farm legislation is
not wanted by the farmers nor
desirable or vaiuame u u
passed. He cited Nebraska as nn
example of a atate with farm leg
islation but no better for the far
mer than other states wilthout
such- laws.

many families; there Is 35. ,000
acres dry farmed to . grain this
latter producing thia yea- over
three-quarters of a million bush-
t eld of oats, barley and wheat and
I between 15.000 and 20.000 tons
of hay. Some of the oats yield
ing 129 bushels to the acre is the I
nign recora ior yieia in mai sec
tion. .
Dr. Trout said that, most ot
this Tule lake land being in Cali
fornia, he had communicated
with the agricultural department
of-the University of California

produce.

Langell valley who spoke of the
18.000 acres there will be made
