John H. Carson Home
On Leave from Border

John II. Carson, a private in com
pany NJ, is home on 80 days leave OF
absence, on account of the illness OF
his father, Attorney John A. Carson
Private Carson reports Company NJ
about as healthy lot of soldiers as
can be found in the regiment. In fact
not q single man is in the hospital and
the living out of doors and near to
nature has had such fine effect on
the boys that most of them weigh sew
eral more pounds than when living a
civilians life.
The days work begins at o'clock,
with breakfast at $3.50 and three hours
of drilling from 8 until IL o'clock.
The boys are then off duty until re.
treat at O'Clock.
The Pacific ocean is located, accord.
ing to Mr.. Carson, just 400 yards from
the camp and when the boys are not
taking their ease on land, it is the
ocean for them.
There are just two things the boys
want: first, a lot more letters from
home, and second. just little of the
home made cake and home made candy.
Their food is all right and entirely
satisfactory, but there is plenty of
room for the home made delicaeies.

ROAD PRESIDENT
(Continued from Page One.)

roads felt in the present situation that
they were fighting for the principle of
arbitration, which he said was the only
remaining protection, not only for rail
roads, but for all the other industries
of the country, against the aggressions
of labor. The railroad presidents were
reinforced by hundreds of letters and
kilograms from big manufacturers and
employers urging them not to yield the
right and justice of arbitration"
The employees have made it known
that they win not recede from their
position beyond the points conceded AT
President Wilson's request.
Any concessions made now, it was
declared, must come from the operators
The railroad presidents indicated almost
uniformly that when they give their
final answer to the president, it will not
be an acceptance of his proposition
Steps have already been taken to con
tinue the operation of their roads in the
event of strike materialiZing, one
railroad executive said this afternoon.
Employees of the roads, it was stated,
have been canyassed and confidence was
expressed that many Of the men will
remain loyal.
The news that the general commit
tees balloting had resulted in accept
ance of the president IS suggestion was
carried to the White House by Presi-
dents Garretson of the conductors and
Lee of the trainmen.

RED S0X STILL LEAD
IN RACE FOR PENNANT
Teams Swing Into the Home
stretch and Are All Run
ming Under the Whip
By H. G. Hamilton.

Omitted Press staff correspondent
New York, Aug. 1S.-With their
drive toward the American league pen
nant only started on the home grounds,
the Boston Red Sox hook up with the
White Sox again today after falling
yesterday before the bats of the Chi.
cago crowd, who pounded Carl Mays for
seven runs in four and third innings
and won the third game of the series
with the leaders. AT the same time in
New York, Cleveland was losing to the
Yanks and in Washington, Detroit ham
mered the Senators for double vic.
tory.
Cleveland s loss, while Boston also
was dropping game, did not lengthen
the distance between the two leading
clubs and they go back against the
same clubs this afternoon with their
status unchanged. Thee and half
games now separate them.
The remarkable team play of the Red
Sox, coupled with the long experience
under fire of every one of its players
is playing an important part in Boston 8
fight. Alsa Carrigan's pitching staff
seems to have rounded into shape and
when these hurlers are going right
there is little chance to beat them.
Cleveland probably will have the
services of Chic Gandil, first baseman,
and Bobby Roth, outfelder, again with.
in few days, Manager Fohl said to-
day. Gandil has been out with a pair
OF bruised toes and Roth is under sus-
pension. Fohl declared Cleveland S sue.
cess has been due mainly to the work of
one man-Speaker.

Conditional Pardon
Given HacOn ROstad

In accordance with the recent recon.
mendation of the parole board Cover,
nor Withycombe today issued condi
tional pardon to Hacon Rostad, who was
received at the Oregon state peniten.
tiary in May, 1915, to serve from two
to go years for forging a promissory
note.
A conditional pardon for Rostad was
recommended by the parole board with
the approval of Judge VIM. N. Gatens,
before whom Rostad was tried. and Dis
trict Attorney Walter H. Evans, of
Multnomah county.
The conditions of Rostad's parole are
that he is to be and remain law abid-
ing citizen, to make monthly reports to
the parole officer of the Oregon state
penitentiary, and is revocable at any
time without notice when the Governor

may be using property from the pro-
eeeds of his crime.

May Come to Head Today.

Washington, Aug, ls.-The railway
wage conflict-with the threat of a
general strike hanging over all proceed
ings-appeared likely to come to head
before today ends.
With favorable action by the GAO rep
resentatives of the railroad brother
hoods forecast as they met to vote on
President Wilson's proposed basis of
settlement, greatest interest centered in
the attitude Of the railway presidents.
The latter began arriving last night and
practically all of those to whom the
president wired yesterday were expect
sd to be present when his conference
with them opened.
A few too far distant to reach here in
time sent personal representatives from
nearer points.
At 10 o'clock, failure Of some OF the
western railway presidents to reach
Washington caused postponement of the
conference with President Wilson,
scheduled for 1880. The delay made it
likely that the decision of the brother.
hoods would be known before the presi.
dents gathered in the White House.
Managers in Hostile Mood
The railway presidents came in a
more or less hostile mood. Their inclina.
tIon. frankly expressed by some of
them, was to support the position of
their managers who have declined TO
accede to the presidents proposal that
concessions of the eight tnr day (et
present 10 hour pay), be made the basis
for settlement, other issues then to be
investigated and settled by a special
commission.
While the big gathering of railway
I'M ployes was preparing to vote at the
8iiou theatre "yes" or "no' ON the
Presidents plan, the railway presidents
we're comforting with their managers.

GREETED to find that you had not yet re-

The last advice that we have had

ed in Mr., Campbell's s letter of June 26,
to Mr.. Joseph H. Albert, the president
of our club.
Mr.. Campbell had told me day or
two previous to the date of the above
letter, that he had instructed the en-
gineering department to prepare some
plans and estimates, believe, and as
sured me that the matter would not be
dropped by reason of his being trans.
ferred to the Southern division.
You no doubt know that all members
of the Salem Commercial club, as well
as other citizens of Salem, are very
much interested in this matter, and are
very desirous of seeing an adequate
and suitable station, worthy of the cap
