of the ordinance in its simplifed
form, stating that recognition of the
library was most wanted at this time.
and that funds for present use would
be obtained from sources other than
from municipal appropriation. She
said that the Auxiliary had pledged
$500 to the fund, that one citizen had
agreed to give $780, and that from
various other contributions it was ex-
pected that at least $1,000 could be
raised at once If the city would pass
the ordinance to give them some
basis upon which to work. The city
would not be asked, she said, to ap-
propriate one dollar till the library
had been established, and that when
| they knew what they would need
from the city they would come for
ward with the request. 1t was ex-
pected to use the library room of the
city hall, and to raise funds by pop
ular subscription for present needs.
Then, when the library is organized
on a definite basis, 1--WE will ask the
city to help, and We will take all the
help We can get" added the spokes-
woman.
Debate Was Interesting.
The lively debate between Council
man Everton and Mrs. Hair brought
out the fact that the ladies are not
blind to the workings of the munich
pal machinery, and the councilman
was good lap behind at the finish.
Mrs. Hair called attention to the ap-
preparation of s35, 900 for city affairs
during the current year, and the en-
gineer-councilman retorted ooh, yes,
but we are building railroads this
year you know"
No, that does not include your
railroad fund neither does 1t include
one dollar of appropriation for the
moral uplift of the people" respond
ed Mrs. Hair, and roll call showed
that the Grants Pass free public Ii
brary and reading room had won out
by vote of seven to one, only Ever
ton voting in the negative, while
Atchison, Barnes, Caldwell, Culbert-
son, Clark, Morgan and Porter voted
aye.

came cryptic.
Nothing can be said until there is

ing uttsrance. And no farther would
he go. Ambassador Chinda has not
yet formally communicated with

VANCOUVER, Wash, May 2t.-
Vancouver slept late this morning,
for practically every resident of the
city stayed up last night to hear the
fight returns that brought the news
that their idol had slowed away Joe
Mandot his highy-touted adversary.
II has not yet been decided wheth-
or to present Bud Anderson with nine
city blocks, or purchase the govern
ment reservation at Vancouver Bar
racks, so that he may turn 1t into a
country estate.
II expected Bud to win, said Mrs.
Charles Anderson, the fighters
mother today. He wrote to me that
he would win before the 18th round,
and he is usually right in sizing up
his man, ! want him to so now and
win the championship and then re-
tire and settle down here in Van
couver."
Several thousand dollars was sent
from here to bet on Anderson

OAKLAND, Cal, May 22.-F. b.
Loomis, former ambassador to Jap

United States, and acting secretary
of state under Roosevelt's first ad-
ministration arrived here today from
Washington on secret mission,
whose object he refused to disclose.
Loomis announced his intention OF
leaving California tonight and wheth-
er he is bound for Japan on a deli
cate mission relative to the anti
alien land law is merely a matter OF
conjecture. In an interview, Loomis
said there would be no war between
the two countries because both gov
ernments we're trying to do all they
could to prevent such a conflict. He
stated however, that the rest Of the
United States sympathized with Cal
ifornia in the enactment of the law
and that personally he did not see
anything in 1t which would conflict
with the treaty rights existing be-
tween the two nations.
