BEAULIEU PAYS TRIBUTE END COMES UNEXPECTEDLY mum 3 I POLITIGI JL s Bnlnc Man Needed. Declare I-eaJ-ins Light of Republic, as Do mestic Difficulties Pre Mnt Thorn j Thicket. LONDON. July 2. Special.) It l considered here that the new Paris min istry will he short-lived and tliat the probabilities- favor early dissolution of Parliament. But In Krance It la the unexpected that happen, and M. Joeph Calllaax. the new Premier. Is concededly a man of exceptional resources and of rare a-lfts for managing large enter prise. Since Maurice Rouvler. there has been no statesman In supreme authority at the Palais Itourbon -ho was so emi nently a business man as Is Calllaux. France needs Just now a business man. ratfer than a professional poli tician: a brilliant doctrinaire, a (treat debater or a past master In diplomacy, thinks M. Leror Heaulteu. to advance her fundamental Interests: and Calllaux has demonstrated his practUal sagacity anrl an Immense driving; power. Ills advent Is viewed wltn serenity at the leaning European capitals for two reasons: one Is the belief that the ornanlxed ministry will not leave the path of for eign poll.-y along which M. Cruppl and 11 plchon before him traveled. The other la the undlsputedly Ira prote.l relations of Paris with Berlin, trie two srovernments now appearing to be almost competitors In promoting an era of better reeling as to the most seri ous Issue between them the Morocco situation. Occasional growls from Ger man or French Journals no longer re flect the official attitude. Ahead of M. Calllaux. however. Is thorny thicket of domestic difficulties, rooted In financial projects of a nature an broadly democratic, not to say so cialistic, that the Bonapartlsta and Or leant'ts pretend to think the hour near for the overthrow of the republic. Fore most in the labor question, far more menacing to Calllaux than any question of electoral reform. NAVAL AIRSHIP LAUNCHED First Aerial Pilot Qualifies la Suc cessful Trial. HAMMONDS PORT. N. T..

T s. LORDS FACE CRISES British Cabinet Planning to Force Veto Question. ANOTHER ELECTION LIKELY King Mar Be Called On to Create 150 New Peers Home Rule Question to Figure Largely in Com In? Campaign. LONDON. July 2. Politics have forged to the front again with sur prising suddenness. After the true during the coronation season, the case of the government against the peers seems about to reach an acute stage. The Radical newspapers assert the Cab inet, after careful deliberation, finally decided to take drastic and final action If the Lord persist In mutilating the veto bill with amendments. Some Radical writers claim Cabinet authority for asserting that the gov ernment's plan Is to announce that the Cabinet has decided to call on the Klnx to create liO new peers unless the Lords accept the veto bill. The object of this announcement would be to. call a halt on the Lords before they plunge deeper Into opposition. That the Cabinet has decided upon Its plan of action appears undoubted. Whether It will show Its hand as soon ss the most ardent Liberals predict Is- questionable. It Is possible the Cao tnet will give the Lords time to send the bill to the House, then reject the amendments enbloc by one vote, de clare Its plana, and perhaps give the House of Commons an opportunity to vote on the question of asking tlio King to use his prerogative to create Liberal peers. From Conservative sources comes a different version of the Cabinet's plane. The Globe says It has the highest au thority for saying that the government will ask the King to dissolve Parlia ment. The Conservative whip. Arthur Steel-Maltland. also said that the gov ernment proposed to have another elec tion In which the home rule question would figure. The Spectator, the organ of the most extreme Conservatives, save the Con servative members of the House of Commons privately admit that the Lib. erals would gain an Increased majority If another election were held and that home rule therefore would be certain. NEGLECT RETARDS PLANS (Continued fmra First Page). guess that there will be no omnibus public building bill next Winter. And there will be none at this special ses sion, either. So Portland must wait on the will of the Democratic House of Representatives. All of which wait might have been avoided had Senator Bourne attached to the site appropria tion a little Item fixing the limit of cost of the new Portland Post office. If the omnibus bill Is not passed un til the short session, a year from next Winter, Portland must take Its turn In the supervising architect's office, for there are today 300 public build Ings authorised by the Congress last passed, for which plans have not yet been prepared, and not all these plans will be out when the next omnibus bill passes. Portland Is pretty well down on the Hat. and while It will be taken up ahead of some of the smaller cities. It probably will not be the first of the new buildings to be placed on the mar ket, for everything Is done In the su pervising: architect's office In rotation, unless very strong pressure Is brought to bear to have a case made special. Local Architects Mljht Help. There Is one way In which Portland's claims might be promptly recognised, sfter the appropriation Is made and the building authorized. Provision might be made to have plans for the Portland postofflce submitted by private archi tects, not In the Government employ. Thlr has been done in several large cities, and the results have spoken well for the plsn. When this Idea Is carried out. the Secretary of the Treas ury Invites several reputable archi tects to submit plans. Informing them of the amount of the appropriation, the requirements of the postofflc service, and other details which will guide them In the preparation of plans, and each architect Invited submits his plans to a board appointed by the Sec retary of the Treasury, this board se lecting the plans best adapted for the Government use. The other plans are rejected. Usually, In these competitions, one or more local architects living In the city for which plans are being prepared are Invited to enter the competition, and that wctild be done In Portland shou'd this suggestion be carried out. In this way, Portland would not have to awn't Its turn but plans could be secured within six months of the time the ap propriation is made. Bourne Overlooks Chance. More than a year and a half ago the supervising architect of the Treasury recommended to Congress than an ap propriation of 11.000,000 be made for a new postofflce building at Portland, thlr amount not including the cost of a site. That recommendation was on file when the site appropriation was made, but In spite of It, Senator Bourne allowed It to go unnoticed, and he se cured no provision whatever for a building. Whether $1,000,000 will now be ample to erect a building suitable to accommodate Portland s growing post office and provide a building that will be adequate for many years to come has never been discussed officially. The probabilities are. however, that more than S 1.000.000 will be necessary. If the building Is to be a credit to the city. But it will be up to Senator Bourne and Representative Lafferty to get the appropriation, and whether It Is more or less than $1,000,000 will de pend upon the energy they display In pressing the appropriation. If a limited appropriation only Is secured, the postofflce will have to be erected of cheap material; a liberal ap propriation will Insure a building thi equal of any In the city and the equal of the best postoffices in the large cities of the East. STATE SALARIES CUT EMPLOYMENT OP BUSINESS TACTICS AIM OP OLCOTT. New Men, Handicapped by Ln fa miliarity Wtth Work, Not to Draw Regular Wage. . SALEM. Or, July 2. (Special.) De creasea in salaries have been made in the Secretary of State's office by Sec retary Olcott. In the corporation de partment he has made a cut of $200 annually, the new State Auditor will receive but a nominal salary for the time being and In the bookkeeping de partment another reduction haa been made. "The decreases are not made because of lack of efficiency, by any means." said the Secretary yesterday. "In re lation to new men coming Into em ployment here I take the stand that a policy similar to that usd In any business Institution should be fol lowed. In the more or less technical duties of the various departments here a new man la essentially handicapped. No matter what his native ability may be. It Is certain that he cannot be as competent as far as the technical side of his work is concerned when he first starts his duties as he can become when he has mastered that technical side. "For Instance, the State Auditor will receive a nominal salary for a time as he la breaking Into the work and aa he becomes more familiar with It his salary will be Increased accord ingly. I believe he will become one of the most valuable men In the depart ment but at present his services are obvloualy less valuable than they will be In the future, consequently he is not receiving as large a salary as he will. "This rule holds good In other de partments. At the same time In the bookkeeping department some of the work which has fallen on the shoulders of one man Is now divided and the sal ary accordingly decreased." The total decreases in salary amount a annroxlroately $750 annually In ad dition to the absence of a chief clerk's salary, which Is 3000 annually, tnis work being done fay Secretary Olcott at the present time, although he prob ably will secure a new clerk In a few months.

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo., July 2. Eugene F. Ware, United States Pen sion Commissioner under President Roosevelt, and one of the best-known lawyers In the West, died unexpectedly from heart disease last night at Cas ada. a Summer resort a few miles west of this city. Although he had been af fected by the heat at his farm near Scott. Kan., before his arrival here last Friday to spend the Summer, he seemed in his usual health Saturday afternoon. Ware went to his cottage about 11 o'clock last night to retire. He fell back upon the bed and died five minutes later. He retired last May, on his 70th birthday, from the law firm of Ware, Nelson & Ware, Kansas City, Kan. Lawsuit Adds to Fame. Mr. Ware, who had a National repu tation as a wit and poet, was attorney In the I'nlted States District Court in Colorado for plaintiffs L. A. BlRrger, of Topeka, (end the Cascade Town Com pany, of Cascade, Colo, against the Empire Water & Power (Company, of Colorado Springs. In this suit Ware raised for the first time In law annals the value of natural scenic beauty and obtained an Injunction against the wa ter company, restraining It from inter fering with Cascade Canyon by build ing pipe lines, etc. The case was ap pealed to the United States Court of Appeals. In addition to his widow, Mrs. Jean ette Ware, and daughter. Miss Amelia Ware, the only members of the family with him in Colorado, he is survived by two other daughters, Mrs. Dr. Nelss, of New York City, and Mrs. Ralph Nel son, who lives in Idaho, and Eugene F. Ware, Jr. War Record Good. Eugene F. Ware was born In Hart ford. Conn, May 29, 1841. and when a young man moved to Iowa with his parents. When 19 years old he Joined the First Iowa volunteer regiment on the day Fort Sumter was fired upon and served throughout the Civil War. He was mustered out as Captain of the Seventh Iowa Cavalry. After the war Mr. Ware moved to Fort Scott. Kan, and went to Chero kee County. It was there that he be came Interested in the study of law. According to the story told by Mr. Ware. In Southeastern Kansas, where at that time white men were few, he spent his leisure time in the office of a Justice of the Peace and in many cases when the Justice was required to decide points he would ask Mr. Ware's opinion. This started the Kansan to study law and after being admitted to the bar he returned to Fort Scott, where he began to practice. Political Lire Active. Until a few years ago Mr. Ware took an active part in politics, having moved from Fort Scott to Topeka in 1893. He served five terms in the Kansas Senate and was appointed Commissioner of Pensions by President Roosevelt in 1902. He resigned two years later. According to close frlends,( when Mr. Roosevelt offered Mr. Ware the place he declined, saying he did not like ha work. To this. Mr. Roosevelt replied: "That is Just the reason I want you to take It. The longer you hold the Job, the less you'll like It." The Kansan accepted the position on May 10, 1902, and It is said his resig nation was placed at the disposal of Mr. Roosevelt May 11. 1902, to be ac cepted two years later. As "Ironquill" Mr. Ware became famous for short poems he published. One of these that attracted much at tention was that referring to Dewey's victory over the Spanish fleet in Ma nila Bay. Probably the poem which brought Ware the greatest recognition was "The Washwoman's Song."

To make a resolution is one thing, but to keep it is quite another par ticularly if the one "resolving" is a heavy drinker. Many an excessive drinker who is bartering business, health and happi ness for overindulgence in drink will find himsel? irresistibly drawn back to old drinking ways. Many a man does not drink because he "wants to," but for the simple reason that his will to quit is overpowered by craving for liquor. There is a way to turn over a new leaf and keep it turned.
