President Wilson gave what was said at the White House to be a, very reluctant consent to the resignation of Major General George w. Goethals from the governorship of the Panama canal zone and his retirement from active service in the United States army. The right to retire from active military service was granted to Gen. eral Goethals in the act of congress authorizing his promotion to the rank of major general. He will be suc- ceeded as governor of the canal zone by Colonel Chester Harding, corps of engineers, United States army, who was sent to the isthmus with a view to the succession upon the retirement of General GOethals.

No Need for Money Matters to Stand Any Longer Be- tween You and the Relief You Seek.

WHAT WE NEED

We couldn't undertake to chron-
icle all of the things in this world
that we would like to have or see,
but there are a few which we
might mention as being pertinent
and to the point-whatever the
point may be.
We would like, for instance, to
see a little more life and hustle
and hustle in this town. We would
like to see more farmers teams
hitched around town, and we'd Ike
to see more Of the farmers and
their wives and sons and hired
men mingling with our townspeople
and getting better acquainted and
on more intimate and friendly
terms. This is a big world, but our
communit,-' is only a dot on the
surface, and because we are only
n dot we ought to know each other
better and stick to e sch other more
than we do. A single twig can
broken by any child, but young
sapling is a mighty hard thing
even to bend. We don't want to re-
main even a twig Or a sapling, but
we do want to he a full grown
tree, and that we will never be as
long as we are only a collection
of human twigs. Let's get together
and grow with the world.
There's another thing we'd like
to see-to have-to feel. We would
like to have the spirit of brotherly
love exemplihed in this town. We
would like to see it in evidence
wherever people congregate. We
would like to feel that it is the
dominating influence in our private
and commercial life. We would like
to see it dwarf all other things and
all other considerations. We really
would.

IS TRAPPED
CIeverIy Arranged by Local Off.
GERS Under New Search and
Seizure Law.

For sometime rumors have been
reaching the local officers to the
effect that James Henry Combs was
selling liquor at the old stand of
John NJ. Adams above Jefferson
vile, this county. Friday Combs
received by express twenty -four
pints of whiskey at the local ex-
press office. Believing this was in
tended for court day trade, County
Attorney Senff laid the matter be-
fore Commonwealth Attorney
Hamilton and they concluded that
a search and seizure warrant ought
to be issued. The law provides
that such a warrant can be obtain
ed upon the affidavit of three citi-
zens and they at once explained
the matter to Deputy Sheriff X. M.
Montjoy, who joined them in the
affidavit. About six o'clock Satur-
day, Mr.. Montjoy, accompanied by
Jailer Richardson and Policeman
Scott and Buford Runyon left in an
automobile for Combs place. Mr..
Runyon, who was dressed like a
mountain cattle man, went into
Combs place, so represented him
self and bought from him pint OF
whiskey. As per previous arrange
ment, he then went to the door OF
the store coughed and raised his
hat. The officers, who were hidden
nearby, then came in, pretending
to arrest Runyon, searched him
and found the whiskey; then ar
rested Combs and searched him and
found the money which Runyon had
paid him and which the officers had
previously marked and upon
searching his store five full pints
and one bottle partly full were
found. Combs was at once lodged
in Jail.

PROSPERITY HIS THE NAVY

Secret liy Daniels has admitted
he finds it very difficLIt to get a
sufficient number of recruits for
the Navy. He says that it would
be simply marvellous if the Navy
could get as many as 10000 new
men in a year, and to keep up the
number of men needed to provide
for the loss resulting from $4,000
expirations of enlistment annually,
requires a constant effort on the
part of the Department. A few
years ago the pay of soldiers and
sailors in the service of the United
States was ridiculously low, but
even with financial inducements
such as are offered by the Govern
ment, the opportunity for more
lucrative work outside of the
Navy, Is responsible Tor men seek
ing private employment. Mr.. Dam
iels has had a great deal of ex-
perience in advertising and public
ity fields, by reason of the fact
that he is the owner of news
papers. lie recently asked Con-
gress for $4,000 to provide for
recruiting stations, and attractive
literature has been arranged for
display, that it is hoped will in
duce men to become sailors and
marines ON dreadnaughts and
cruisers.

we therefore recommend that ii
each of said streets or the residents

from this meeting of the Council,
to-wit, May 9, 1916, and state that
they have in the hands of some re-
liable party or parties sufficient

Council do not require the property
owners of said street at this time
to so permanently repair or build a

STILL BEMoANING FATE.

The announcement Of the transfer

vail from the Medford Mail-Tribune.
Undoubtedly there might have been
Z fuller confidence between the public
and the promoters Of the sugar COM
pany, when there would have been
less cause Tor a display OF Ill feeling
later, but this does not justify the
Medford paper in some OF its state
ments. There was no time when the
required acreage had been pledged
by the Medford area" and regardless
OF whether or not the factory had
been guaranteed to Grants Pass by
previous arrangement. the fact still
remains that Grants Pass won the
location through providing the great
est acreage that came within the spe-
cifed provisions. The published list
showed the greatest acreage guaran-
teed without strings" in the Grants
Pass area. At no time did the upper
end Of the valley offer legitimate con-
tracts for beet acreage that aggre-
gated as much as those turned in by
the Grants Pass solicitors. OF course.

do 'if the factory should be located
there" So did the Grants Passites.

not MI the bill.
II the people Of the Medford dis

It is argued in government circles
and in the press that SO long az the
entente nations adhere to the pro
gram recently reiterated by Premier
Asquith and Niscount Grey, there Is
really no occasion for Austria Hun
gary to show great interest in the pro-
