And buy men, it's funny
Not one of the suckers can clout.''

Hunting Season May
Be Closed By Governor

Salem - Whether the game season,
which opened in the state Sept. 1,
when a proclamation issued by Cover
nor West few weeks ago, closing it,
expired, will continue to remain open
is problematical, the executive saying
he was undecided as to whether he
would issue new proclamation.
The governor issued the proclama-
tion closing the season until Septem-
Der l, on petition of timbermen, they
representing that hunters in the woods
were responsible to a great extent fol
the many forest fires. They have
again petitioned the governor to close
it until rain eliminates the fire danger.
when the game code was adopted
the timbermen requested that it be
amended SO as to provide for the clos
ing of the game season until Septem-
Der l." said the governor. "By issu-
ing a proclamation, which expired
September /, l closed the season
Whether they are now entitled to have
it closed for longer period is ques
tion. l appreciate the danger from
fire, however, and the damage which
would result to the forests, and have
taken the subject under advisement. >
State Forester Elliott, after con
ferring with the governor, gave 1t al
his opinion that the season should moi
be closed unless the forest fire situa
tion became more serious.

Mericans Agree on Plans
for Holding Nelp Election

Washington, D. C.-The basis for
the recent assertion of President Will
son that he believed Carranza and Viii
la would cooperate in restoring con-
stitutional government in Mexico was
revealed Wednesday, when it became
known that General Obregon, personal
friend of General Carranza, had sign
ed the proposals of General Villa for
an electoral program. i
The program in full is as follows:
That a convention of the delegates
of the constitutionalist army be called
to arrange the date Of the election for
Congress, President and Vice-Presi-
dent.
That no military man be candidate
for President or Vice President or
Governor Of any state.
That civilian take charge of the
provisional government to hold elec-
tions.
That a general amnesty be declared
except as to those who committed the
crime or participated in the assassina-
ton Of Madero and Suarez.
That the officers of the old federal
army who can show clean records shall
be taken into the new national army.
That all reforms shall be put
through in an energetic manner, but
on legal and constitutional basis.
General Carranza already has COM
piled with the first proposal by calling
a general convention. for October to
select a provisional president.

Contract Let for 28 Miles
SutherIin-C Coos Bay Road

Sutherlin into cash, 1t is the intention
Of the lumbermen to cooperate with
one Of the big railroading interests in
extending this first unit which is un-
der construction, into a through east
and west line. Al survey has been
completed from Sutherlin to Coos Bay
and maximum grade of / per cent
established.
A party under Chief Engineer H. D.
Haley, of the Lumbermen's Engineer
ing company, of Portland, will be
outfitted at Sutherlin during the
month, to investigate the North Ump-
qua River canyon and pass in the vi
cinity Of Diamond lake, the summit
of the Cascade mountains, due east Of
Sutherlin. From the previous investi-
cations of the Forestry service, the
Umpqua river pass is Of less altitude
and more accessible than that of the
Willamette Fork at 0dell lake, through
which the Natron survey was made.
On the report Of the engineering
party and the anticipated revival in
trade and railroad building in this
country, will depend the extension of
the Sutherlin road east through the
-undeveloped empire of Eastern Ore
gon, and to Boise Idaho. The Suther-
lin survey will be made from Diamond
lake through klamath, Lake and Har-
ney counties to Malheur lake, where it
is expected to connect up with the ex-
tension from the Oregon Short Line on
Snake River to Juntura.

company, of Portland, whereby the
latter is to commence construction
work on the first % miles of the Suth-
erlin, Coos Bay & Eastern railroad

ing on the contract, has departed for
Portland to superintend the shipment
of the company's grading outfit to
Sutherlin. He said that he expected
to have the equipment here in few
days and hoped to be in shape to COM
mence grading next week.
There was much rejoicing through
out the valley when i,s became known
that the contract for the- first unit of
the railroad had BEEN signed and that
construction was to begin at once.
The hackers of the line are making
a thorough investigation of the route
both eastward and westward from
Sutherlin, with the idea Of an early
extension Of the line.

is primarily for the purpose of con-
verting the huge timber holdings of

Russians Admit Defeat
at Hands of Germans

London-Advices have been received
here from Petrograd (St. Petersburg)
that the Russian general staff frankly
confesses to disaster to two army
corps, including the loss of three gen.
erals.
Telegraphing from Petrograd the
correspondent Of the Times declares
that the war reports given out by the
headquarters staff in the Russian capt.
tai are generally rather meager, but
are generally true.
That the headquarters will stick to
this plan also when the news is bad Ia
proved by the announcement made
here.
The wording of the announcement
indicates that other Vistula fortresses,
besides Graudenz and Thorn have re-
ceived reinforcements. The news ar
rived Thursday night and the people OF
Petrograd received it with firmness.
Their faith in final Russian victory
remains wholly unshaken.

Incomes Made to Bear
Share of sWur" Tar

Washington, D. Can income tax
increase Of one-half of per cent and
a reduction of the minimum exemp-
tion from $4,000 to $4,000 and the maxi
mum exemption from $4,000 to $4,000
were tentatively agreed on by Demo
cratic members Of the ways and means
committee who are framing the emer-
gency bill to raise $100,000,000.
1t is estimated that the proposed
income tax changes would produce
$35, 100000 annually.
In deciding on the income tax in
crease, the committee considered the
fact that revenue from this source
would not be available until next July,
but the opinion was general that the
increased revenue from other sources
would meet any deficit until that time.
Under the proposed changes the in
come tax would be TX per cent on in
comes of single persons in excess of
$4,000 and the same on married per-
sons in excess Of $4,000.
In addition the one-half per cent in
crease would be added pro rata In ac-
cordance with the increased 'sur-taxes
on incomes in excess Of $4,000.
The committee agreed also that the
increased tax on beer and malt liquors
should be fixed at 30 cents a barrel,
bringing in $35,0O0,0O0. On domestic
wines an extra tax of 20 cents gal
Ion viii raise $1o,0O0,00O Distilled
spirits will escape an extra tax, but 1t
was decided to tax rectified spirits 2
cents gallon, realizing $2,000,000.
Opponents Of an increased tax on
whiskies won their fight after three
ballots had been taken. Proposals to
levy an additional tax Of rs and Is
cents a gallon were defeated. On a
proposal to make the tax 10 cents a
gallon, there was tie vote. Finally
it was agreed to make the tax apply
only to rectified spirits at 2 cents.

BATTLE OF AER0PLANES
Is FOUGHT OVER PARIS

Paris--A fight in the air over Paris
took place Friday. Three German air
men hovered over the capital and i'm
mediately two French machines were
sent up to engage them.
Meanwhile rifles and machine guns
mounted on public buildings kept up a
constant fire. By this means one Of
the German machines became sepa-
rated from the others and the French
aviators flew swiftly in its direction.
The Germans opened fire, to which the
Frenchmen replied vigorously.
The battle seemed to turn to the
disadvantage of the German, who
mounted speedily to a higher level,
and, holding this position, was saved
from further attack. He finally dis
appeared in northwest direction over
Fort Romainville, after vain pursuit.
The other German aeroplanes also
escaped the fire Of the guns and after
circling about for considerable time,
disappeared from view.

Million in Battle.

London.--A Boulogne dispatch to
the Evening News says a telegram
has been received from General Pau
announcing a victory by the allied
forces at Precy Sur Oise.
The Imperial Guard, under Grown
Prince Frederick william, is reported
to have been annihilated by the Brit

The Evening News dispatch says.
"a telegram has been received from
General Pau announcing a victory by
the allied forces under Field Marshal
Sir John French, commanding the
British, and General d'Amade at
Precy Sur Disc, about rs miles north
of Paris.
THE allies were drawn across the
northern line with the center at Precy.
The English troops were on the left
and the French on the right. The
former had in front Of them the I'M
perial Guard under Crown Prince

"On both wings, 1t Is reported, the
allies we're successful. The German
left was held by the French and re-
tired to the north.
"The Imperial Guard, who were or
dered to 1aurrender, were annihilated
by the British. 1t is reported that
the Crown Prince was in their midst. ;"
The British official bureau has re-
ceived no confirmation Of this mes
sage.
An earlier official statement given
out in Paris said that general action
had started on the line from Nanteuil-
le-Hardouin to Verdun, a distance of
120 miles. 1t was then said that,

successful in checking and forcing

ITALIAN FLEET
TO AID ALLIES
Great Britain Supplies Coal for
Operations Of Warships.
French Fleet in Mediterranean, to
Be Shifted to North Sea
to Aid British Navy.

Washington, D. C.-That an agree
ment exists between the Triple En-
tente, made up of Great Britain,
France and Russia, and Italy, is estab-
|lished to the satisfaction Of diplomats
here BY information they have re-
|ceived.
Great Britain has given Italy 40, 900
tons Of coal for the use of the Italian
fleet. Additional supplies are to be
provided as needed. The result will
be that Italy will be able, when the
moment for her action comes, to use
her fleet against the Austrian and
Turkish navies. The French fleet in
the Mediterranean thus will be re-
lieved Of the necessity of bottling up
the Austrian men of war and can be
shifted to the North Sea.
The union of the British and French
navies will mean that tremendous
force will be stationed off the German
coast and enable offensive operations
against the harbors within which the
German navy is lying ready for action.
The exact moment when Italy is to
throw in her fortunes with the Entente
