Just now, with a competent corps of

that not a single operator will be
disappointed in gathering in this by
no means trivial sum of money for

what it accomplishcs socially and re-
ligiously. Rev. DR.. Forbes and the
Rev. Mr.. Rodgers, as assistants,
dovetail admirably in DR.. Matthews

Valley Hatchery
Has New Supervisor

Hugh Mitchell, state superintend-
ent of the United States Bureau of
Fisheries, spent Thursday in Med
ford on his return from the Elk
creek hatchery. Van e. Heffner of
Spearfish, S. D., said to be the best
trout culturist in the department, &C
companied him to Elk creek, where
he will hereafter be in charge of the
work, succeeding Arch Cappell, who
has been transferred to Duluth and
is leaving with his family for that
point.
Only a million and a half Chinook
salmon eggs have been taken at Elk
creek station this year, the lightest
take in years. A light egg take is
also reported on the Columbia and
other western streams, despite fair
packs of salmon at the mouth of the
stream. As all fish runs are late
this year and no silversides have yet
entered the river, operations will be
extended for some time yet.
Extensive improvements are con-
templated at the Elk creek hatchery
for the coming season, and the ca
pacity will be much increased. Twen-
ty cement ponds and four large earth
ponds will be built.
The old Matching houses will be
done away with and large one built
that will hold 100 troughs., This,
with the new ponds, will enable the
holding of three million fry to the
lingering stage and solve the re-
stocking problem.
A new water wheel will also be
added.-Medford Mail Tribune.

Saws Counties Will
Get Taxes Soon

That there was not a flaw or error
of any kind in Lane county's state
ment of the Oregon and California
land grant taxes for 1913, 1914 and
1915, recently forwarded to the de-
partment at Washington, was the
statement of Oswald West, former
governor of Oregon, now special
agent of the United States, in charge
of the checking of claims of the diff
ferent counties within the land
grant.
Mr.. West passed through Eugene
yesterday afternoon on his way to
Salem from Marshfield, where he
went to straighten out number of
matters with the county court of
Coos in regard to these taxes.
Mr.. West few days ago forward
ed to Washington Lane county's
statement of these taxes, which
amount to $2S4,235.O6 for the three
years.
"There is 10 reason why Lane
county should not receive this money
from the government quite soon, ="
said Mr.. West yesterday Every
thing was correct to the cent in this
county's statement, and we recon-
mend that payment be made at once.
There is nothing whatever in the
way, as far as J know. of Obtaining
the money at once"
Mr.. West said that Lane county's
claim was the first to be forwarded
to the government. The claims of
the other grant counties will be for
warded as soon as their statements
are checked over-Eugene. Register

How Much ls Now Left Of the Bal.

The president had boldly signed the
Pork river and harbor bill, and his
facile pen is dripping with Ink eager
to attach itself to a pork public build
ings bill.
The friendliest apologists of the pres
iGant's part in the prohigate waste of
money wrung from the people by op
pressive taxation have nothing better
to say for him than that 1t is hardly
fair to expect man to say 81 forbid!'
in his presidential year when he is a
candidate. OF
The foregoing words describing the
profigate waste Of the peoples money
with executive approval are taken
without change from plank of the
platform on which Woodrow Wilson
was elected In 1912:
we denounce the protigate waste
Of money wrung from the people by
oppressive taxation through the lavish
appropriations Of recent Republican
congresses, which have kept taxes high
and reduced the purchasing power of
the peoples toll. We demand return
so that simplicity and economy which
BELTS democratic government"
How much is now left Of the prin-
ciples declared and the promises reg.
istered at Baltimore as inducements to
citizens to vote for Wilson.
Possibly it is because he and his
party have been such reckless, such
wholesale repudiators Of the pledges of
1912 that few people remember or care
to remember what pledges were made
In his behalf about forty days ago at

welfare workers in the United States.
Mrs. Robin told how as governor
of New York Mr.. Hughes had always
been a consistent and true friend of
labor. She told with feeling how he
had brought about the passage of the
first employers liability act ever
placed on the statutes of state of
the Union.
"Mr. Hughes saw the great human
issues involved" she said, 'and he
went to the people and explained
those human issues to the people.
What are those issues? Well, among
them is the fact that we have in
these days of peace in the United
States a list of injured and crippled
men and women of 100000 every
year.
For the first time in the history
of this country protection for these
workers was provided by the state
through the efforts of Mr.. Hughes
when he was governor of New York.
"He saw it, moreover, that the
eight-hour day for telegraph oper-
ators was given in New York. He
also saw to it, when he voted as a
member of the supreme court to up
hold the constitutionality of the Cali
fornia eight-hour lay, that every
state should have the right to pro-
tect its working people.
"Mr. Hughes took these important
positions on the side of labor, and
during his administration Sc labor
laws were passed by the New York
legislature, in each case leaving
foundation so broad that we can
build on 1t for the future"
Mary Antin Drinks Lithia Toast.
Mary Antin won the hearts of the
audience and made the hit of the day
when she held aloft a silver cup
which was presented to the party by
the Oregon state central committee
and which was filled with sparkling
Ashland lithia water and drank
toast, "Of your wonderful Ashland
lithia water, here in this beautiful

Polotzk, Russia. She was educated
in the public schools and Girls Latin
School, Boston, and later studied at
Barnard College She is nationally
famous as a worker in the immigra-
tion field.
Much of her address was directed
to Hughes consideration of the i'm
migrant problem while governor of
New York.
"They usually let me talk on the
hyphen,' she explained, because I
am it." Miss Antin arrived in Amer
lea as an immigrant from Poland
when only 13 years of age.
She told how the big corporations
in New York had been in the habit
of exploiting the poor immigrant and
how Governor Hughes corrected that
evil, how he had instituted other re-
forms that would make America
better place for the immigrant to
live in.
She seemed to speak with assur-
ance when she said that if Hughes
