Big Power Project Begun for
Oregon Electric at Eugene

Eugene-A force of men is at work
at the Oregon Electric's SIS, 900, 900
power project at Clear Lake at the
head Of the Mckenzie river in the
summit of the Cascade mountains.
Preliminary work is to be rushed says
L. C. Gilman, president of the Oregon
Electric, who arrived in Eugene this
week. He stated definitely that no
other plans for development are under
way.
II am not prepared to state at this
time how soon the permanent con-
struction work will begin" he said.
The Mckenzie power project, one of
the largest in the state, involving the
tapping of one of the largest lakes at
the summit of the Cascades, was COM
menced quietly several years ago.
Engineers established headquarters
and meteorological readings were made
daily over period of two years.
Final surveys were made and engineers
reports submitted were favorable to
the projects.
The first formal announcement was
made more than year ago, when one
of the engineers, returning with the
final reports, made public the plans.

Seven Battles in Week is BIoodiest
Of Entire War in Western Europe

London-Seven separate and distinct
battles were fought in the week just
closed and there can be little doubt
that the days from Saturday, the 9th,
until Friday, the 14th, will rank
among the most bloody in the history
of Western Europe, says the CORE
spondent of the Times. He adds:
Saturday night saw no lessening in
the intensity of the struggle. On the
Ypres front, although outnumbered
and in danger of being outfanked, our
men again and again hurled back Ger
man attacks.
During the darkness the Germans,
as though aware that with every pass
ing hour their opportunity was slip
ping away, continued to hurl them
selves against our lines.
"Men who lived through this night
shot until they could no longer hold
their rifles. The fury of the assault
was indescribable.
Dawn of Sunday showed in the
fields in front of Ypres the dead pile6
like cornstalks at harvest time, British
and Germans lying side by side."

Tillamook - Demands for a rural
credit or Federal longtime loan law
were made in committee report to
the State Grange in session here. At
ter an hour of discussion, the grange
decided to take no action on the report
until the committee in charge of the
Bathrick bill has announced its find
ings.
The committee also urged the grange
to declare it would support no candi-
date for the United States senate who
would not promise to work and vote
for rural credit law.
Increase in the limit placed on pos
tai savings accounts to $4,000 with the
privilege Of diverting these funds to
the farmers at low rate Of interest
was favored by the committee in a res
olution which was adopted.
A resolution also was adopted by the
grange declaring against tax exemp-
tions on certain classes Of property.
The resolution, however, was not op-
posed to an exemption of $500 on
household goods actually in use.
The grange also declared in favor Of
a Federal law that would require man
ufacturers of woolen goods to mark
their products to indicate whether they
are made of long wool or REGARDED OF
of old woolen garments. Changes il
mail or rural routes were opposed II

Freezing Temperature Over Wide Area.

Washington, D. C.-Abnormally cold
weather prevailed Tuesday night
throughout the entire country except
in the Gulf states, with temperatures
20 degrees below the seasonal average
in the Upper Lake region and the Da-
kotas. Snow fell in St. Paul and other
parts of Minnesota and West Virginia.
Reports to the weather bureau told of
the disturbance, one accompanied by
heavy frosts in Nebraska, Minnesota
and parts of Iowa and Wisconsin, and
the other attended by rains over the
Northern states east of the Missis-
sippi, which were said to be RESPONSE
BILE for the unsettled condition and low
temperatures.
The Eastern storm was said to be
passing into the Atlantic and the one
in the West to be moving eastward.
Frost warnings were issued for
many sections.

State Grange Asks Rural
Credits at Annual Session

of the date of the collection of the
second half of the taxes from October
s to the first Monday in November
favored in another.
In the demand for the rural credit
law the committee recites that the
people of the country expected relief
from the financial stringency after the
passage of the administration currency
act and that the law has failed to
bring about that relief. It says that
money is as scarce as it was before the
passage of the act, and reports that
rates of interest have remained as be-
fore.
1t calls upon all Of the subordinate
oranges of the state to support a
measure for the relief of the farmers,
Icontending that the interest rates now
charged by lenders are "eating the
vitals and life out Of the state and ma
tion. /"
The committee would have congress
grant to the states the right to issue
non-interest-b bearing bonds to be used
as time loans on which the secretary
of the treasury would issue currency
less 2 per cent discount. This woult
be handled by the state land board anc

Notices Sent Officials.

Salem 81 The State Tax commission
has sent circular letters to county off
cials calling attention to an act passed
by the recent legislature, which makes
sheriffs, instead Of county treasurers,
tax collectors. The letter says in part
"This act does not specify any partic-
ular method to be followed in making
transfer of the tax roll from the treas
urer to the sheriff. 1t is evident, how
ever, that the treasurer must make a
return to the County court, verified by
proper certificate, as required by law,
showing clearly the state Of the tax
roll on the conclusion of his duties as
tax collector"

New York-President Wilson = the
man on whom the eyes of the world
are turned because of the international
situation ~ Tuesday reviewed the At

luncheon rendered to him on shore by
the City of New York told distin-
guished gathering Of navy officers,
army officers and civilians what the
country and its navy stood for. The
great battleships that lay in the river,
he said, were "engines to promote the
interests of humanity"
The inspiring thing about Amer.
ica," the President asserted, "is that
she asks nothing for herself except
what she has rightsto ask forshuman-
ity itself. We want no nations prop
erty; we wish to question no nations
honor; we wish to stand selfishly in
the way of the development of no ma
tion. 1t is not pretension on oul
part to say that we are privileged tt
stand for what every nation would like
to stand for and speaking for those
things which all humanity most de-
sire."
The spirit which brooded over the
river, said the President, was "just {
solemn evidence that the force oi
America is the force of moral princi.
Pile, that there is not anything else she
loves and that there is not anything
else for which she will contend"
The President took occasion in hi
speech to pay tribute to Secretary o.
the Navy Daniels, who sat beside him
Although the day was damp ant
chilly, with occasional downpours o.
rain, the weather in no away abatet
the enthusiasm with which New Yorl

Riots Surprise Germans.

Berlin-The Overseas News Agency
Wednesday gave out the following:
"The German press expresses sur
prise at the impotence Of the London
police. Mob rule is easily suppressed
where the police are active. Official
reports of parliamentary debate clearly
show that the hatred of the Germans
is the only pretext left for plundering.
That the internment of all hostile for
eigners should be necessary to protect
strangers is bad sign"
