OPENING OF ESTABLISHMENT is
PRACTICALLY ASSURED.
LEASE PLANT this SEASON
May Take Over Grants Pass Cannery
From First National Bank ut
$4,000 for Property.

The prospect of the operation of
the Grants Pass cannery during the
present season is now especially
promising, it being practically as
sured that a cooperative company
organized through the Pomona
grange will take over the plant and
put a competent man in charge in
time to handle the products of the
farms during the coming summer.
The executive committee of the
grange has been working along the
line of solving the cannery problem
for some time, and Friday morning
met with the committee from the
Commercial club in this city, Later
the First National bank, which holds
the cannery property, made a propo-
sition of lease and sale to the coop
erative company that will be placed
before the Pomona grange by the ex-
ecutive committee at the meeting
here next month, and If 1t receives
the Endorsement of that body, the
cannery will be taken over at once
with option of purchase later. The
exact terms upon which the transfer
is to be made have not been made
public, but the purchase price is un-
derstood to be $6,50O to the local
company with the terms of payment
placed on a most reasonable basis.
The plant is one of the most COM
plete in the west, including not only
the cannery, but a vinegar factory
and spray factory as well. The equip
ment is complete for the operation
of all three branches of the business,
power being derived from 3D.
horse power boiler and engine. There
are also all the needed small ma
chimes, vats, etc., the whole having
cost much more tnan the price no"
asked by the bank. The site is in
the east part of the city, on the
Southern Pacific tracks, and in
cludes lots in block A of Boundary
Line addition to the city. The build
ings are the two story factory build
ing and the warehouse connected
with it by tramway, office building,
lime house, and other outbuildings,
all substantially constructed espec-
tally for the cannery.
1t is understood that the grange
committee has in mind the names of
parties who are available for the
management OF the institution, and
that a competent manager will be
put in charge as soon as the Pomona
grange takes action.

SALEM, Feb. 25.-The legislature
today became conscious OF Governor
West when several messages from
the executive office came in. Only
one was veto message, the others
announcing the approval of various
bills.
The veto message dealt blow at
a county salary bill by Senator
smith, fixing certain salaries in
Josephine county. The message
merely stated that the governor ex-
pc is this matter to be taken care
OF by house bill awaiting action in
the senate under which county saIar-
les throughout the state will be-
classified and equalized.
Announcement by the governor
that he had filed the Barrett-Hurd,
or the County Bonding bill, caused
a smile of gladness to spread over
the face of Senator Barrett.
The governor signed a senate bill
granting the progressive party full
rights on the primary ballot.

JUDGE CALKINS DIS
MISSES KIENLEN CASE.

Judge Calkins in the circuit court
has issued an order dismissing the ac-
ton brought by Sam Y. Kienlen
through which the latter asked for an
injunction to prevent the authorities
from destroying liquor captured by
the officials during a raid upon the
Kienlen establishment in February,
1912. Under the order the DISPOSE
ton of the case is back to Justice Hol-
mans court, where final disposal of
the confscated liquor will be determ-
ined.
At the time of the arrests and con-
victions in the liquor cases here a
year ago, liquors valued at approxim-
ately $1,000 were seized in Kienlen S
place by the rading officers The
search warrant had been issued from
Holman's court, and the liquor has
since been held in the jurisdiction of
the court, now being stored in the
county Jail. To prevent the destruc-
ton of the booze, Kienlen, through his
attorney, asked for and was granted
temporary injunction, but in the or
der now issued the court refuses to
make the Injunction permanent and
remands the case to the Justices
court for further action.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 24.-The
killing of Madero and Suarez in Mex
leo City will still further delay
recognition of the new admlnistra-
tion. 1t is stated that the United
States will now withhold official
recognition of the new regime until
the blame for the killing is fixed and
those responsible punished. This
action will be followed by the other
world powers.
Non-recognition may make it hard
for the Huerta-Diaz regime to bor-
row money Few bankers, 1t Is be-
lleved here, would be willing to loan
money unless the borrowing govern
ment was among those recognized as
world power Loans to the Huerta-
Diaz administration under present
conditions, come under the category
of financial aid to rebels.

NEW YORK, Feb. 24.-Without
exception the New York newspapers
condemn the Staying of the deposed
President Madero and Vice President
Suarez. The following are extracts:
World-"They were shot to death

their guilt. President Taft is right
in his policy of non-interyention ex-

cation to keep the people Of Mexico
from each others throats."

page than this which Huerta has
written in the blood Of Madero."

Smith asked the governor why he
was showing favoritism

Macleay canning interests can fish

in the fall Josephine county gets
only one month for commercial Ash

the commissioners we're placed in ra-
Their a peculiar position. as at spe-

this special levy, two weeks ago made
one precinct of Davis county, SO That
all taxpayers might contribute to the
building of the highway. This was to
conform to the law providing for the
levy of a special road tax only in
precincts through which the road
passes. For other road purposes in
this county about $4,000 are avail
able, making a total Of $4,000 Tor
