FOR FLETCHER'S
A S T O R i A
The Object Is To Prepare
Arguments Favoring Cliar
ter Amendments
Mayor Walter K. Keyes has called a
meeting this evening at the Commercial
club of a committee appointed to pre
pare arguments to accompany the pro
posed charter amendments to be sub
mitted to the voters of the eitv at the
election to be held July 0.
The three proposed amendments are
to be submitted to voters by action of
tho council, and the general opinion of
the leading citizens of the city is that
the election to be held July 0 is of vi
tal importance to the general prospori
tv of the city.
The proponed amendments are being
submitted to Jhc voters primarily be
cause the city lost the two cases in the
supreme court, wherein certain tax pay
ers on Houth Commercial and South
High street avoided their assessments
on account of a technicality in the ad
vertising. To give the city authority to reas
sess and to correct the technical errors
made in the advertising, the common
council proposed three amendments to
the city charter, which are to be passed
on at the coming election.
The first amendment gives the city
the right to re-assess, whore property
owners are refusing to pay their street
assessments, through a technical error
in advertising. The second amendment
to the city chnrter to be passed on by
the voters' provides for a more effective
system for collecting street improve
ment liens. The third measure proposed
gives the majority of property owners
a right to decide as to whether there
shall be a street improvement, instead
ot the present law wherein a two thirds
majority is necessary.
A committee of about 30 to prepnrei
arguments will be appointed by Mayor
Keyes, the appointments up to 'today
noon included John H. MeNnry, 8. M.

CAPTAIN H'ALLISTER
PilESENTEDWITH RING
This Was Feature of Cher
rians Visit to Portland
Banquet Another Feature
The interesting event of the visit of
tho Cherrians to the Rose Festival yos-j
terdny in Portland was the presentation
of a Ooinmandory ring to Captain Joe j
McAllister, who has enlisted with tlici
:irmv engineers and who will soon join i
his company.
The captain was taken bv surprise at
this manifestation ot good will from I
his brother Cherrians but managed to!
thank them, expressing the hope that.
in time they would all meet again.
Everything went along according to
schedule yesterday. On tno trip to rort
le.nd the Oregon Electric, handed the
men cigars and presented the ladies
roses, curing for their comfort on the
return trip by supply each with a chair
pillow.
The Cherrians were left pretty well
to care for themselves, which they did
to their own satisfaction with the ban
quet at the Multnomah and dance. The
gold room of the Multnomah was ten
dered the Cherrians for the dinner and
dance. Cherrians to the number of H2
were present in uniform and a total
of 192 plates were served.
For the first time in the history of
the Cherrians. thev came homo without
bringing a prize. The only classification
under which the inerrinns coiuu coin
peto was that of a non-fraternal or
ganization and the prizes were won by
the Italian Red Cross nnd tho Trans
portation lted Cross club.
Besides the dancing at the Multno
mah, the evening's entertainment in
cluded solos by Miss Ada Miller, who
was most favorably received, several
numbers by the itosarian quartet and
selections by the Cherrian Military
band.

into a stirirng patriotic appeal for the
Red Cross, receiving a trcniendouB ova
tion. So decided a hit did tho rekcr
make, anil so much comment create,
that O. B. Gingrich yesterday got
chautauqua headquarters on the wire,
and made request for an additional
quota of Mr. Herbsman's time and tal
ents. The chautauqua people showed
their patriotism by coming through, and
Mr. Herbsman will be returned io oa
lem for this occasion at their expense.
In addition to the splendid speaker
thus secured, preparations lire under
way for an elaborate musical program,
to furnish a proper setting. Details of
this have not as yet been filled otit, but
the public is assured of the finest tal
ent available. That Mr. Herbsman is
more than worth listening to, is the
testimony of all that heard his im
promptu address of the other evening.
Mr. Herbsman being of German descent
himself, knows and understands the
psychology of the German people. His
setting forth of the issues which divide
the United States nnd Germany was
illuminating to a high degree, and his
definition of German Kultur, ana us
tBnirer to democracy, a revelation. Ev
eryone should hear" Mr. Herbsman to
morrow evening as a matter of infor
mation. When Judge Bushey was asked for
permission to use the court houso steps
and lawn for the meeting, his response
was, "Certainly, Nothing is too good
for the Red Cross workers."

Tacoma, Wash., -June 15. German
roses iu Tacoma are having a hard
s, niggle this year.
Whether the war is responsible, is
a matter of conjecture, but Frank M.
Latcham, originally of the Tacoma rose
society, and one of tho most prominent
Rosarians iu the city reported Thurs
day that all roses with German names
are stunted and backward in their
growth.
Among the plants which seem to be
unable to thrive this season on enemy
soil are the Kaiserin Auguste Victoria.
Frail Karl Druschki, Madame Hoste,
Bismarck, Johannes Wesselhoft, Hein
rich Munoh and Frustin Von Plcss.
"Moles seem to be acting as subma
rines in attacking the roots of German
roses." said Latcham today.
' Flying ants are attacking the
plants in similar fashion to airships. I
am digging war trenches about the
plants deeper than ever this year, but
it doesn't seem to do any good."
Latcham reports that other roses,
particularly the La Franco and others
from tho allies, are buckling rapidly.
