MEDFORD CLAIMS PATERNITY
OF NEW STATE IDEA

MedfOrd, Ore.-Local leaders in the
movement to create new state out
of northern California and southern
Oregon, when shown dispatches from
California unfavorable to the project
today stated that as soon as possible
they would start an active campaign
to call attention to the advantages to
be derived from the creation of the
new state.
The movement originated in Med
ford some months ago and has since
been indorsed by many commercial
bodies and men in all walks of life.
1; was brought about through the
seemingly inability of the territory
embraced in the new state to secure
any recognition by either state or ma
tional legislative bodies. Northern
California, it is claimed, has long
been neglected, while southern Ore
gon says it is impossible to get ma
tional appropriation for any part of
Columbia river.
At a meeting of the Medford Com
mercial club, the largest body of its
kind in Oregon outside of Portland,
a mention of the proposed new state
brought about a wild demonstration
on the part of the 500 men present,
which lasted many minutes Local
leaders in the movement are claiming
today that the sentiment expressed at
this representative gathering is uni
veral throughout southern oregon.

KING VICTOR OF ITAIN
WOULD FOSTER PEACE PLANS

Rome.-King Victor Emanuel may
be the most active ally among Euro
pean monarchs of the peace plans
fostered by the United States and urg-
ed in part by the recent note of Sec
hetary of state Knox urging an agree
ment on the question of an interna-
tionaE court of arbitration.
King Victor Emanuel with Queen
Elena is making preparations for a
royal tour of Europe, and II Is under
stood that their majesties propose 20
visit Paris, London, Berlin and 81.
Petersburg.
King Victor is a firm advocate OF
anything that makes for the peace OF
the world He realizes as much, II
not more than any other European
sovereign the crushing burden upon
his people caused by the enormous
taxes for war purposes. one OF the
reasons for his proposed journey is
20 talk over with King Edward, Pres
idcnt Falliers. Kaiser Wilhelm, Car
Nicholas. the question of reaching
some agreement for the Limitation OF
armaments.
King Victor is convinced that the
time is ripe for some such agree
ment and that because of the friendly
relations now existing between Italy
and the other great powers he will be
able 10 take the initiative with some
chance of success. It is believed this

The court house was crowded and
jammed early this morning by an ca

the defendant would go on the stand

morning they would rest. But the

road track as he claims he did wait
fer the return of the horses. But
Mrs Longnetber and her cousin who
were out riding that afternoon says
that they saw two men ride horse

she wasn't looking for any mysterious
third person, but stated positively that
there was no person around within

railroad track at that time.
Everybody IS waiting with almost
breathless expectancy for the defend

charge of the day. The first number
on the program was two selections by
the orchestra of the high school under
the direction of Professor Leaning

medley of National Airs were rendered
with great skill and the expression was
unusually good. Mr.. Carl Werntz, df-
rector of the Academy of Fine Arts in
Chicago was then introduced and gave
the ladies an illustrated talk on
Artistic Reasoning" His talk was
both entertaining and interesting and
the pictures, though simple were skill
fully drawn and contained all the ex-
preston necessary for the making of
any beautiful picture. Mrs Charles
Hohman's rendition of Sing Me To

tically received. Mrs. Holman graci-
ously responded to an encore and gave

two very fine piano solos by Professor
Clark Leaning. Mr.. Leaming's selec-

represented distinct type in music.
The first, "A Scotch Poem" was a bold
dashing piece of harmony while the
second, "A Memory" was full of soft
| joyous little runs. The guests for the
afternoon registered in the guest book
