The early hour at which the Vic
tory Train of war trophies arrived
in this city yesterday morning caused
many to miss viewing the exhibit
during its stay here, A large num-
ber, however, gathered at the sta
tion and inspected with interest the
various implements of warfare which
were picked up on the battlefields
after the retreat of the Huns from
the invaded districts of France and
Belgium.
A stop OF two and one-half hours
was made in Ashland and the cars

Sh0rth0rn Cattle
Sale Was Success

The upper end of the valley was
well represented at the auction sale
of shorthorn cattle held at Medford
Saturday afternoon, when many
farmers and stockmen were interest
ed spectators and bidders at the first
sale of registered cattle conducted
in this valley. These were shipped
in for the benefit of dairymen to bet
ter their herds in this section, and
the sale was an unprecedented sue
cess from start to finish.
The entire consignment of 26
head of cattle brought the total sum
of $7,415, the seven bulls averaging
$3S7.43 each, while the 19 cows av-
eraged $247.S9. The highest price
paid for any one animal was $3.50
paid by E. E. Beeson of Talent for
the bull Silverdale. o. D. Lowe was
the only representative from this sec
tion who secured one of the register
ed stock, when he bought the bull
Comet. $50
Colonel A. L. Stevenson of Cor
Wallis was the auctioneer and Prof.
E. l.. Potter, head of animal indus
try of the Agricultural College and
secretary of the Northwest Shorthorn
Association, assisted at the sale. The
advent of this sale marks new era
in dairying in this valley and will be
the means of better stock and better
products In the future. Mr.. Lowe

Pacific & Eastern
May Again Operate

Contingent upon their ability tC
make financial arrangements and
upon the decision OF the Portland
district freight traffic committee OF
the United States railroad admins
tration to grant an attractive rate on
lumber for outward shipment, the
Pacific G Eastern railway will re-
sumo operations. according to reports
from Portland. This road, running
3S miles out of Medford to Butte
Falls. went into receivership early
this year because Of its inability to
earn enough to pay operating charg-
es, and its renewal OF train service
will be a source OF Joy to lumber
producers Of Southern Oregon now
without means OF transporting their
product to outside markets.
Last week delegation OF Jackson
county business men and lumber pro-
ducers headed by E. w. Messereau,
had preliminary conference with
the Portland district freight traffic
committee with 4 view to obtaining
extension OF the Coast group rate on
lumber from Butte Falls to any point
reached by the Southern Pacific and
connecting lines. Another conference
will be held the coming week and in
the meantime the Southern Oregon
men will learn just what they may
be able to do in the direction of ar
ranging for resumption of operation
of the railway.
Without extension of the Coast
group rate to Butte Falls, the rail-
way is or would be handicapped by a
differential of 6A cents a pound
freight compared with competing
points situated on branches and feed
ers of the Southern Pacific. This
amounts to 50 thousand feet on
lumber, and it is possible to have it
absorbed by the long haul charge,
as is commonly done in like cases.
II plans to resume operations of
the Pacific G Eastern line carry, the
immediate sacrifice sale and scrap
ping Of the road will be averted.

clares that the allies have received
a new proposal for an understanding

understanding are the withdrawal of
troops from Russia and the abandon

in Russian affairs. Russia, on her

says of the signing of the Peace Treaty
by the German delegates that
"To imagine such a thing and remain
calm is extremely difficult. Our emotions
seem irrepressible, but we must learn to
keep them within bounds We do not need
to crush them out. Oh, no; but to shout
our feelings to the world which for a per-
iod was a political duty, is no longer op
perfume. Now we must learn to keep sill

God wills, some day our deeds will. Such

INVESTIGATION OR FARCE?

A<J
The country has a right to expect Con-
gress to make a thorough investigation of
the conduct of the war. Every one who
lost a relative in France, Russia, Italy, or
in an American camp has a right to know
whether that life was paid as n OF the
|inexorable demands Of victory or as the
price of neglect; whether for instance. j.
IshOuld be charged to poor equipment,
poor leadership, poor medical attention.
OF course all who saved and sccaped
ito buy a Liberty bond or to pay heavy
taxes has a right to know how the money
was spent-how much was wasted, and
lhow much was absorbed in graft.
And there are thousands of others who
would like to know the truth about var
ious specific developments. There are
many lonely women who want to know
why their letters were never delivered,
and why the comforts they addressed to
their boys overseas were dumped on Ho-
boken sidetracks. There are a great many
lpeople who would like to know why we
had no American planes over the front
after the expenditure of a billion dollars
or so, and why, after we borrowed plenty
of planes from the French, we had not en-
ough available a~vitors, although thous
ands were at the ear and thousands OF
others were awaiting orders to sail from
America.
Many will want to know why, after APP
propriating billions for ordnance we had
mo American field guns at the front
that is, guns manufactured under these
appropriations. And there are those who
would like to know why the American
army was the most poorly clad in France,
and why many of our boys walked into
Germany with s~oleless shoes and bleeding
feet, despite the fact that Secretary Bak-
~erannounced that the Americans were
the best dressed army in Europe. In this
connection it would be interesting to
know how may millions were wasted in
giving the men complete new outfits as
they prepared to sail fer America and
why it was essential to "dress them up on
the eve of rehabilitation.
We cannot even begin to list the things
that people would like to know about, be-
cause we lack the necessary space. But
one thing is certain: Unless the Republi-
can leaders change their methods, the
public will be deeply disappointed in the
Investigations, because they will develop
into farces. Consider for example, the
committee appointed by Speaker Gillette.
If the House had been canvassed for the
least qualified Republicans to take charge
of this all important task, it is doubtful
if a more incompetent committee could
have been assembled. Chairman Graham
has neither the experience nor the quail
kfications for the work and the same thing
is true of the chairman of subcommittee.
The successful direction of this inves-
tigation will require the most skilful legal
talent in the country, assisted by technical
advisers who actually know what hap
peed behind the Baker smoke screen.
There is no more adroit manipulation of
facts in America than Secretary Baker

girls of the Patriotic league under

1t is a love story of olden times
and many perplexing situations that
come up to hinder the lovers hold
the audience throughout the entire
three acts.
Those who have been fortunate
enough to attend the rehearsals claim
that men could not have filled the
male parts any better than the girls
that have been chosen.

leading role of David Garrick, who

part.
