GERMAN HEAVY
GUNS WITHDRAWN

With the French Armies on the
Somme Front, Oct. 1S.---The Ger
mans have withdrawn their heavy
guns from one and u half to Ave
miles behind their Somme front,
Anglo-French aviators have discover
ed on recent flights. The withdrawal
was ordered to save the pieces from
capture. In the recent dashes of al
lied infantry into the German lines
many heavy guns have been taken
before the Germans had an opportun-
ity to withdraw them, The Germans
now have 2,l00 guns opposing the
French and British on the Somme
front, compared with the $500 guns
they used In the attack on Verdun.
or this number coo are south of the
Somme, facing the French, and ESQ
oppose the French advance north OF
the Somme. The British are opposed
by $50 German pieces.
Since the allied offensive began
more than 500 German guns have
been captured.

O.& c. GRANT LANDS SOON

l. Sharp in Charge Of the Field Party Now Classifying
the Tracts, Says Work in Southern Oregon Is About
Completed, and the Tracts in This District Should Be
Distributed to Settlers Within a Very Short Time

not be opened under the homestead
law. The timber will later be dn-
posed OF by sale by the government.
It was evident from talk with Mr..
Sharp, however. that the bulk OF the
lands already classified. and especial
ly large proportion OF the lands In
Josephine county. would be classified
as agricultural and would be opened
to entry within the next few weeks.
Mr.. Sharp stated that while the re-
ports upon the individual 40-acre sub
divisions had not yet been separated.
by far the greater part Of the 1Ss,-
900 acres Of the grant lands In this
county would classify as Agricultural.
Some OF the reports show much tim
Der. but not quite enough to classify
II as timber lands. Upon some Of
the homesteads there will be one mil
lion feet or better Of timber. or Just
under the 1900. 900 feet that would
put II In the timber class. The CLASH
dcation has been by some OF the best
timber experts in the west. men who
know what merchantable timber Is,
and who. to quote Mr. Sharp. do not
think that because q tree has limbs
and leaves that II should classify as
timber. This liberal classification Is
responsible for the large amount that
will be returned as agricultural land.
No Chance for the CRATER
In the opening Of this great body
Of land. Il IL plain that the system
used will not make a place for the
CRATER. the fraudulent locator or the
speculator.
"The intent Of this opening OF the
grant is to place the lands in the
hands OF developers and home build
ers rather than Of the speculator." is
the way Mr.. Sharp puts II. And one
can feel that Mr.. Sharp Is the kind OF
man who wants the public to get
all there is in the grant without hav-
ing to pay tribute to locatos and
grafters. That is why his men are
instructed to make a graphic report
upon each tract. for when the report
is studied the character OF the land
will be known. The surveyors are re-
obliterated section marks.
bench marks. ETC.. so that little skill
will be needed for the land seeker to
make his own location.

Newport, R. l.. Oct. l3 Rubbing
through the waters OF the Atlantic

bays and harbors for a possible naval
base OF belligerent nation. One
by one the destroyers left Newport

they were string out along the coast.
with three reported as far north as
Bar Harbor, Maine. Reports from
the destroyers by radio were not
given out by the station here. but so
Tar as is known no actual evidence Of
t. belligerent base of supplies has
been located.
Every available destroyer in the
United States navy Is either on patrol
duty now or will be within the next
few days. All reserve destroyers In
the southern navy yards are being
rushed into service. Admiral Gleaves
announced today.
The destroyers on duty here are to
see that neutrality laws are to be OBJ
served.
The remaining destroyers here In
the harbor had steam up ready to sail
and two slipped out of the harbor
early this afternoon.
Reports OF heavy storm, which Is
approaching from ontario, gave the
naval officials here some apprehen.
sion as to the advisability Of rushing
all their available destroyers at once
to the coast, where heavy gales are
threatened for tonight,
AT 1880 this afternoon the de-
stroyer Cummings tore out OF the
harbor at full speed to Join the con-
stantly increasing patrol which is
securing the coast for possible float
ing bases of supplies.

Washington. Oct I3.--Statc de-

certain features OF the allied mail
censorship. The notes. written m

Although neither department on

learned on good authority that the
two governments. taking issue with
American contentious. maintain:
That they have a right to censor

Ing neutral ships into British and

they have u right to seize United

ers back to work.
There was some sniping, but the

mitted he had done some firing yes
terday. A squad under Fighting
Dan" Cady located Pereprin after
some sniping in the vicinity Of his
house. but he was ca'miy reading a
book. As the squad was leaving the
house with Pereprin, he made a lreak
to escape. but was stopped by blow
from Cady's blackjack. Searched at
the station. Pereprin was found to
have four buckshot wounds in his
back.
The police today confiscated the
licenses Of 20 saloonkeepers. alleged
to be doing business in violation Of
the edict that there must be no sales

The Tidewater Oil company decided
