SERBIA I ARMY RESUMES
ITS DA1VE ON MONASTIR
After Being Checked Two Weeks by Bulgarians They Are
Victorious and Capture Several Villages-Rumanians
Defeat Invading Teuton Army Driving It Back Across
Frontier-Berlin Concedes Gains by Both British and
London, Oct. 19. The Serbian army has resumed its
drive on Monastir, base of the Bulgarian army operating
in southwestern Serbia, after being held up for two weeks
by Bulgarian counter attacks.
The Serbs have captured the village of Brod in bril
liant fighting, it was officially announced at Paris.
Other Serbian detachments have occupied several posi
tions on Mount Nokol and have advanced appreciably
nearer to the summit of the highest peak.
Bulgarians are rushing up reinforcements and a large
number of trench mortars, said a Serbian official state
ment to London.
While the Serbians were registering this success the
Rumanians again defeated the Teutonic armies that in
vaded Rumania through Predeal Pass driving them back
across the frontier, said an official statement from
Bucharest this evening.
On the Somme front a heavy downpour of rain hin
dered operations somewhat last night, although the
French reported some further progress west of Peronne,
where the French lines have been advanced to within easy
artillery range of the city. The German war office con
ceded Anglo-French gains on both sides of the Somme yes
terday, but declared they were more than offset by heavy
allied losses.

The anti-ally leaders, however, are
continuing their nttemupts to organize
demonstrations and tho crisis is by no
iiii-ans past. It is understood that King
Constantino, following conferences with
the British and French ministers, sent
pci-sonnl appeals to the most prominent
of his supporters urging them not to
tir up the Athens crowds to acts of
violence.
The collapse of reports that a United
States fleet was approaching Piraeus to
intervene disheartened the civilians and

reports greatly encouraged the mobs,
thousands of (IreoKs actually believing
that they would soon be joined by Am

"It is with joy that wc hear of the
impronchinir arrival of the great Amer
ienn fleet," said one of the newspapers
circulated by the royalists. "It brings
relief in the midst of our torments. Am
erica resents the sorrows of the Greek
people and doubtless will proclaim her
reproof in a vice that will resound
across the sen. ' '
The crowd that visited the American
legation to present an appeal for Amer
ienn intervention, learned that these re
ports were ill-founded nnd tho news

. Dallas, Or., Oct. 19. County Asses
sor F. K. Meyer has completed a sum
mary of the assessment rolls of Polk
county for 1910. There is a loss of
$83r,5i: in land values in the year,
owing to a withdrawal of 37,309 acres
of O. & O. land from assessment. There
is, however, a gain in value of $5200
in deeded lands. Tho total number of
acres assessed is 429.999.4.'5,"'of which
134.478.08 arc tillable and 290.520.77
nre non-tillnb'e. There is a loss of $19,
970 in merchandise stocks nnd a gain
of !i54S.' in farm implements, indicat
ing that the farmers are more prosper
ous than the merchants. There are 259
less horses in the county than last year,
due, no doubt, to the large number that
were sold for the European war.
There are 1033 more ca'tle, but a

Commercial Club Hears Rea
sons Why It Should Be
Built Other Business
A municipal dock for Salem U il.o
latest undertaking of tho Commercial
club.
Following tho address of Captain A.
W. Graham in which 1m ant fiiti.
advantages of a municipal dock for tho
tuy, u committee was appointed con
sisting of Paul Wallace, U. G. Holt and
Dan J. Frav to wait on th,. ,.itv- .,,.
cil with the suggestion that $5,000 be
uiciuucii in tne Dudget for 1917. This
sum Captain Graham said would build
a dock of sufficient size for the river
business of Salem.
Before the comiiiittpn nrriv.i.1 at n..
city hall, the council had already pass
ed the budget for 1917 and as a con
sequence, there will be no $5,000 a-
vaiiauie ior tne construction of a city
dock with city money at least not iu
1917.
A. W. Graham of Oregon City was
introduced by President Albert' as a
graduate deck hand, captain, manager
and everything else that might be in
cluded in tho management of a boat
iino, tho Oregon City Transportation
company.
Before eottinir an niiiirni.rinli'ni. (mm
congress for tho deepening of the riv-
r, mr. urnnam said it was necessarv
'o show there was already a thriving
business on the river and that the
more tonnage could be shown, the bet
ter were tho chances of getting money
from congress.
Whilo it might be of advantage to
deepen tne river, Mr. Graham said tho
first thin;; was to get an appropriation
"or .he re-construction of part of the
locks nt Oregon City, as at tho time of
vear when there was tho greatest river
raffie, there was only one foot and
n no inches of water at the lower lock.
!Ie claimed there had been a blunder
nade in tho construction of tho locks
nd that engineers had estimated that
S0,000 would be necossary to remedy
he mistake.
To increase river traffic in general.
Mr. Graham said more docks were need
ed up nnd down the river, owned by
'ho different localities. From Portland
'0 Eutfene. a distnnnn nf 171 min.
there was but two municipal docks at
puttcviiie and Wheatland. He believe
it was better for a town to own ;i
own doeitn.
"In Sniem, you nave n rotten antii
mated old dock," said Mr. Graham,
'and this naturally hampers business.
The city should own n good modern
dock. It could be an open dock or we
would lease it."
The best place for a municipal dock
would be at what is known as the old
dock location, between State and Court
streets.
The object in building docks along
the river not only in Salem but nt oth
er points was to convince the govern
ment that there was sufficient tonnage
along the river to justify an appropri
ation and if anything was to be done iu
tho Salem dock line, now was tho time
as tho lease of the Oregon Transporta
tion company for the present dock
would expire within a yoar. -
While Mr. Graham estimated that a
dock could bo built for $5,000, Chns. K.
Spaulding and others present were of
the opinion that tho total cost would
probably be nearer $12,00 or $15,000.
President Albert suggested that as a
United States senator would be in town
next week and also a congressman, tho
needs of the Willamette river might be
brought to their attention.
I. Greeubaum reported that the sub
ject of street lights had been presented
to the city council and that he hoped
for favorablo action.
F. O. Deckebach, as chairman of a
committee on river improvement said
that before presenting the matter of
an appropriation for deepening the
river, the rivers and harbor committee
must be shown there already was a
considerable tonnage on the river and
that a municipal dock was one of the
things needed. As for terminal rates,
he thought these could be secured if it
could be shown there was an open chan
nel from Salem all year.
Geo. F. Rodgcrs asked that his com
mittee be empowered to continue nn
educational campaign showing that Sa
lem was facing an industrial crisis and
that the city was threatened with the
loss of several of its manufacturing en
terprises. Mr. Kodgcrs is chairman of
the $250,000 guarantee committee.

WARM WELCOME BY
ENORMOUS
RID
Colonel Teddy Heckled
by Crowd Quits Talking-
Gets One
By J. P. Yoder
(United Press staff correspondent)
Aboard Roosevelt's Train, St. Louis,
Mo., Oct. 19. With tho Kentucky
mountain district and its eventful day I
behind him, Colonel Roosevelt is speed
ing across Missouri nnd Kansas today
to the scenes of his "short grass' range
riding days.
While tho colonel ostensibly is out to
mnko votes for Republican "('undidute
Hughes, he does not intend to spend nil
his time playing politics whilo in Phoe l
nix, Ariz., and Albuquerque, N. M.,
where he speaks Saturday and Monday,'
respectively, lie is looking forward to i
meeting some of his old plniu pals.
And if the colonel keeps nil the dates
with gun fighting cowboys who knew'
him in the old ranch days who havej
wired him to be sure and visit tliein.j
this trip wont end when its expected to.
Jlierc are two men, however, who
have wired Roosevelt they will meet
him eithur nt Phoenix or Albuquerque.
One is Seth Bullock, who used to sit be
hind tho colonel at political meetings!
with a pair ot loaded Colls in his hands
"to keep the audience attentive."
The other is Jim Davis, whose left
ear "wus bit off by a gentleman in an
argument. "
Is Badly Disgruntled
Roosevelt admittedly is glad to get
out west. It has been four years since
ho did any western traveling. Then,
too, bis day yesterday was not all beer
and skittles. Besides the wrecked
freight train ahead of his special, which
delayed him two lioitrs, the engine
pulling his car broke down six times.
The last time was at Livingston. There
was a crowd at the station calling for
him. HCwas greeted with shouts of
" Woodrow Wilson! Woodrow Wilson"
as he started to speak. Finally the
heckling plainly nettled the colonel and
unable to get well started, he shouted
at the men, "that's right; shout for
Woodrow Wilson tf you're too proud to
fight nnd if the Lusitonia sinking
doesn't make your blood corpuscles
shout," Siid he went inside to speak no
more until he reached Louisville for his
first big address of the trip.
Corbin Welcomes Hint
Excepting Louisville, Roosevelt got
his best reception at Corbin. Despite a
downpour several thousand mountain
folk, who could get a job any time
suping as a mob in a Belascoesque play,
all but tore' Roosevelt 's arm from his
shoulder joints shaking hands with him.

phatic in Indorsement
GRATEFUL FOR HELP TO
AMERICAN FARMERS
Admire His Work which Kept
Nation Honorably at Peace
During Trying Times
Indianapolis, lad., Oct. 19. Indors
ing in tho most emphatic language Pres
ident Wilaon's foreign policy and ap
plauding his courage and patriotism,
tho Farmers' National congress of tho
United States, in its thirty sixth annual
session, fast night telegraphed hearty
congratulations to the president, ex
pressing tho profound gratitude and ap
preciation of this important body for
the successful efforts of tho president
in "keeping tho nntioii honorably at
peace during one of the most trying
periods of its history."
The organization also expresses ap
precintion of the administration's con
structive nnd effective legislation en
acted for the benefit of the farmers
of America.
Wilson Sends Greetings
Tho president, unnblo to attend, sent
assistant secretary of agriculture Carl
Vrooninn to "Convey to you my per
sonal greetings and assurauces of sym
pathy and good will. The loyal and" ef
fective support which has been given
oy your organization to furthor the
passage of legislation in the'intercst
of the farmer during the present ad
ministration is most sincerely appre
ciated." To the president's telegram the con
gress today sent this reply:
"Your inessugo of good will to the
Farmers' Nntiounl congress of the
United States has been received with
great enthusiasm. This congress nt its
thirty fifth annual session at Omaha,

Warm Greeting
was the most picturesque he ever ad
dressed. And they were. Some had left
their mountain fastnesses for the first
time in three or four years and had
walked or ridden horseback or miiln
back, mostly mules, from ten to forty
miles "to see Teddy."
One grizzled old man, who was ob
viously a stranger to 1110 civilization,
persistently yelled, "Where's Teddy;
1 want to see Teddy," until finally
Roosevelt interrupted his speech to say
"well, my friend, taue a look. I'm
Teddy." And then the old chap refus
ed to let the colonel continue his
speech until he had gripped the colon
el's hund.
The Louisville nffuir was something
like Fourth of July used to be before
safety first propaganda dumpened gun
powder. There was enough explosive
wasted in red fire, sky rockets, roinau
candles nnd noisy bombs to huve furn
ished tho allies with powder for a
thrcchour-drum fire boinbnrdincnt. But
for all the fireworks there were num
erous very numerous Wilson rooters at
Phoenix Hill auditorium, where the col
onel sKiko to 4,000. They started heckl
ing from the beginining and only quiet
ed when he pleaded for "a square deal
and ns much of a monologue as possi
ble." Points to Himself
Persistent heckling Inter in his speech
brought the retort, "I'm coming back
to' you, to give you a chance to cheer
when I tell you nbout how women
were ravaged and American men mur
dered during tho Wilson administration
because there were men like you in
charge at Washington."
"Eat 'em up, Teddy," several yell
ed and he answered, "I will if he
gives me half a chance."
in his speech ut Louisville Roosevelt
scored the Adomson bill as "bun
combe," and contrasted its passage
with the action he took when the Louis
ville and Nashville, road threatened to
reduce wages when he was president of
the United States.
"I got the low from my attorney
general," said Roosevelt, "and told
the Louisville and Nashville folk I 'd
act under the newly enacted Krdinan
law. The iouisville and Nashville came
around and didn't reduce wages."
Tho case just mentioned was brought
to Roosevelt's attention today by H.
II. Seavy, a locomotivie engineer, who
shone in the Corbin spotlight as the
colonel's introducer there.

These words are those of A. L. Mills,
president of tho First Nntiounl Bunk.
Some time ngo 1 made tho asser
tion that business was much better iu

"and X nm more convinced or it toilay

"There haB never been so much

"The banks nre overflowing with
