see the grand jury notes and make
a copy of them, as a preliminary to
the hearing of the demurrers filed
The defense sets forth in the
motion, that "the Ku Klux Klan,
a Protestant organization" was
under investigation; that A. E..
Reames, e. e. Kelley and Gus
Newbury, Medford attorneys, were
called in the guise of witnesses, to
make, in effect, pleas before the
grand jury; that Raymond l.
Turney of Los Angeles, deputy
district attorney, was called to
give facts he learned at Los An

which have no local bearing; that
two witnesses, Howard A. Hill and
George Arthur Burr, were before
the grand jury at the same time,
and that the indictments are
therefore invalid.
The state combatted these
claims with the plea that the
time for filing the motion was

Council h1sulted bv
BHghS Bed Tariff;
Sign Permit Refused

The Bligh hotel charged certain
state fair visitors too much money
for their rooms. Therefore T. G..
Bligh, heavy Salem property own
er, should not be allowed to place
an electric sign in front of his
hotel.
Such, apparently, was the rea-
soning of the city council when,
last night, it voted down a motion
allowing Mr.. Bligh the courtesy
extended to other local business
men. Alderman Patton declared,
in the course of a talk discourag-
ing adoption of the motion, that
Mr.. Bligh had insulted each and
every member of the council-he
didn't point out very clearly in
what manner-and added that Mr..
Bligh was entitled to no consider
alton from the aldermen.
The minutes of the council, In
regard to the Bligh sign, read as
follows:
Alderman Patton said that,
during the fair, Mr.. Bligh had
rented his inside rooms for $1.50
and 81 per night, without baths,
which was an insult to every
member of the council, and stat
ed he did not think the council
should grant Mr.. Bligh any privi-
leges whatsoever"
And there you are. The rooms
were rented at $3.50 and So
thereby insulting the council. 1t
logically follows that no electric
sign-incidentally one of pre-
tentious type-should be placed in
front of the hotel
1t was said today that the sign
is constructed so as to meet the
requirements of the city ordi-
nance. 1t was also said that the
sign probably will be hung in
front of the hotel.

OF Nations Economic
Policy Chief Issue Of

Columbus, o., Oct. 3.-Whether
the prestnt economic system is to
be developed by the republican
party or revolutionized by the
democratic party, is the real issue
of the times, declared Albert j.
Beyeridge, Indiana's republican
senatorial nominee, in an address
here this afternoonS opening the
campaign of his party in Ohio.
Present System Defended. $500
The republican party, Mr.. Bev-
eridge said, holds the theory that
the present economic system, is
fundamentally sound and that
American institutions for all hu-
manity are better than existing or
proposed plan of government. An
antagonistic theory, he said is
held ''by a conglomeration of po-
litical elements made up of the
larger fragment of the democratic
party, socialistic organization ana
extreme radicals, who are con-
vinced that our whole economic
system is fundamentally wrong
and that American institutions
are antique and inadequate.
Selection of one of the two
theories is the profound and ele-
mental issue" of the times.

stored fully, a republican congress
is an indispensable as a republican
president"
Mr.. Beveridge suggested that to
bring about an era of prosperity
capital must be allowed to "flow
as freely as possible into the
channels of productive industry"
AS a means of relieving the
situation, Mr.. Bev-
eridge declared that the national
agreement made by William Nc
