stated Facts.

legged misstatements by the Presi-
dent in his speeches on his Western
tour. issued as . Senate document.
Senator Borah's criticism was di-
rectsd 70 q statement made by the
President in his speech at Los An
Eeles. In which he stated that when
Germany committed the original

quiesced in the German treaty by

Great Britain and France made the
secret treaties with Japan to give her
Shantung In order to induce Japan to
enter the war on the side of the allies.
Senator Norris alleged, in his speech
IN the Senate, last Friday. that this
statement was untrue, because Japan
antered the war in August. 1914, and
the-secret treaties were not even sug-
gested until March. 1917. Moreover,
when the President first made this
statement In his speech at st. Louis
on September 5 attention was called to
II hy Senator Norris in the Senate, and
the President then wired him. under
date Of September L, thanking him for
correcting an unintentional inaccu-
racy in one Of my recent speeches"
Norris Took Up Time.
Practically the whole time of yester-
days treaty debate was taken up by
Senator Norris. who also produced the
record OF japanese rule in Korea to
illustrate what may happen to the
Chinese when they are subjected to
the-rule OF japan.

Want War Record
Of Ashland Soldiers

An effort Is being made in the
public library to preserve the records
OF all men from Ashland who have
served in the world war in any
branch of the service. The librarians
have started a loose-leaf portfolio
with the war record and photograph
of each soldier or sailor. Up to the
present, however, only a few have
responded to this request for pic
lures and history, and out Of the
hundreds Of Ashland men who have
seen service, less than fifty have sent
in their record.
The public and especially those
who have had members of the fam
lily in the war are urged to call at
the library in inspect the soldier and
sailor history, with the hope that II
will arouse more interest In the pro-
ject. While the war is fresh In the
minds Of all, few realize the i'm
portance of keeping a record of the
service Of those who participated,
but for the coming generations this
Twill be OF inestimable value and in
terest, and should he carried on.
Those who fought the Revolution
airy war were simply men and boys
who went out of the home towns
like these OF the present war, but the
descendants who realize the effort
II takes to trace out their ancestry
in order to be classed as Son oi
Daughter of the American Revolu'
tion can appreciate what such his
tory of the soldiers Of the great wal
may mean in the future.
Any man serving in the army
navy, marine or aviation during the
recent war, or any person havinl
members of the family in the ser
vice are urgently requested to take
to the library a brief war history
and photograph to be entered in the
history of Ashlands representatives
in this great struggle.

Ashland Lady Died
at MADEIRA, Calf,

Word was received in Ashland
yesterday morning of the death of
Mrs. Fannie Blalock. formerly OF
this city, which had occurred al
MADEIRA, Cal. The message was sent
here by a sister of Mrs. Blalock,
Mrs. Hoslen, with whom she had
been living for a few weeks, having
gone to that city for the bene-
fit of her health. The change
had proven unavailing, however,
and her many friends in
this community were grieved to
learn that she had failed rapidly un-
til death resulted Sunday afternoon.
Mrs. Blalock was a well known
and popular woman of Ashland
where she had lived for many years.
About three years ago she and her
husband. Walter Blalock, moved to
Dunsmuir where the latter was in
the employ of the Southern Pacific.
A year ago Mr.. Blalock was killed
on the railroad, and ever since that
tragical event Mrs. Blalocks health
has been declining, She spent the
past year in Ashland until a short
time ago, when she went to Port
land for treatment Finding that
her condition was gradually getting
worse, Mrs. Hosler took her to her
home three weeks ago. While her
condition was known by her friends
in Ashland to be serious, her death
was unexpected by many at this
time and the news came as a great
shock.
The body viii be brought to Ash
land this evening on train No. 54,
and arrangements for the funeral
will be made after the arrival of the
relatives,
