DUKE OF TECK FOR
GOV. .-GEN. OF CANADA.

LONDON, March 3.-It is an
open secret here today that wire pull
lers who are trying to nominate a
successor to the Duke of Connaught,
as governor-general of Canada, find
their most serious opponent in a
small but influential section which is
believed to have the support of
Queen Mary, whose nominee is the
Duke of Teck the queens brother.
1t is also whispered that King
George is not so fond of his brother
in-law's company that he would
grieve over losing him for few
years, and might sanction the ap-
pointment for the sake Of domestic
peace.
Teck is cordially disliked by the
great majority of the British public
and would scarcely be popular in the
Dominion.
Earl Beauchamp is understood 70
be the nominee of the cabinet, but
he is rather too much impressed
with the Importance of the aristoc-
racy and did not make himself very
popular when governor-general of

WORDS FROM HOME.
Statements That May BE Investigate
ed. Testimony of Grants Pass
Citizens.

When a Grants Pass citizen comes
to the front, telling his friends and
neighbors of his experience, you can
rely on his sincerity. The statements
.of people residing in far away places
do not command your confidence.
Home endorsement is the kind that
backs Doan's Kidney Pills. Such tes-
timony is convincing. Investigation
proves it true Below is statement
of a Grants Pass resident. No strong
er proof of merit can be had.
j. NJ. Jones, n. Fifth St., Grants
Pass, Ore, says; 81 am glad to con-
firm all l said in praise of Doan's
Kidney Pills, when publicly recon-
mended them some years ago. Kid
ney trouble caused me much misery
and although tried one remedy af-
ter another it was not until l began
taking Doan's Kidney Pills that |
found relief. they regulated the
passage of the kidney secretions, re-
moved my aches and pains and re-
stored me to good health. Doan's
Kidney Pills deserve my heartiest en-
dorsement."

MUTT AND JEFF MAKE
GRANTS PASS LAUGH
(Frsm MONDAYS Dailyl .

AT the opera house last night, the
musical comedy Mutt and JEFF. -
playing to house well filled, kept
its audience in shrieks of laughter
for two hours and S5 minutes, the
roars of mirth occurring with a
clock-like regularity every 80 sec
onds.
Mr.. Jerry Sullivan as little JEFF"
and Miss Hazel Tupper as Jesse, q"
gained the most hearty applause of
an audience that was unsparing in
its approval of a mirthful entertain
ment.
An unfortunate illness, resulting
from acute throat trouble. to George
Belts who plays the role of Jack
Weyler," placed one of the best ten
ors of the present light opera stage
in the hands OF a local physician,
and deprived Grants Pass of the
pleasure of hearing a display of lyric
art not often within its opportunity.
Belts fought TO go on, but was not
allowed, and an understudy did the
best he could with the role.

the opera house last Friday night,

large audience on hand and in a
financial way for the promoters of
the performance.
The program was made up of fif-
teen entertaining vaudeville acts and
farce sketches, ranging from pretty
patriotic drills to skits founded on
ridiculous farcial situations, and was
divided into two parts either of which
would make worthy vaudeville pro-
grams. A Ave piece orchestra added
much to the enjoyment Of the even
ing. making the admirers Of the
youthful local aspirants for theatri-
cal honors wonder how the evening
slipped away so quickly The entire
program was very we'll balanced,
leaving the audience much pleased
with the entertainment. and satisfied
with an evening well spent.

Wilson's speech" says the West

vague. Sermons are easier to frame

pose, and whatever is best in bold

CANNERY AND MARKET
WILL BE DISCUSSED.

How Benton county farmers have
found a market for their produce
through the medium of the County
Growers Association and the estab-
lishment of a cannery will be told to
the people of Josephine county next
Friday and Saturday by Geo. II.
Tinker, secretary and general man
ager of the Benton county organiza-
tion.
Mr. Tinker will be brought here
through the efforts of the joint com
mittees of the grange and the Com
mercial club, the prime reason of his
coming being to assist in getting the
local cannery proposition under head
way. Mr.. Tinker first agreed to come
last Friday, but because of the alb
sence of T. Il. Hill, manager of the
Leonard Orchards, who is deeply in
terested, and because of the desire
of the grange committee to have
time to advertise and get all the pro-
ducers here to listen to what Mr..
Tinker will have to say, the date was
postponed If the present plan is
worked out, Mr.. Tinker will inspect
the cannery here Friday and advise
the committee regarding its condi-
tion, availability and sufficlency for
the fruits and vegetables in sight for
1t this season. Saturday afternoon II
is proposed to hold public mass
meeting at which Mr.. Tinker will be
asked to tell how the Benton farm
ers have made the cannery and the
marketing of produce through the as
soclation success, and to advise our
farmers concerning their needs and
the possibilities of developing profit
able markets Definite dates and
hours will be named as soon as the
committee is more fully advised.
The local committee has this week
made a thorough inspection of the
cannery mashinery, finding 1t in ex-
cellent repair, and as soon as Mr..
Tinker has advised regarding needs,
