O. P. Hoff late today, he states that
capital has $23,619,902 invested in
plants and equipment In the timber in
dustry of the state, this being exclu
sive of timber' holdings and working
capital, including only buildings, ma
chinery and other equipment. The to

timber industry. Mr. Hoff said:
"Wages, on the whole, both for

ing of business in the timber' Indus

Backache Just

Dear Mr. Editor Sometime ago I
bad backache very bad ; it would ache
just like a toothache. I tried a new
discovery of Doctor Tierce's, called

backache and hod no more pain, and I
hope others troubled in the same way
will try this wonderful new remedy.
Yours sincerely,

Hiico mat Lowell E. Hlanehard will
not serve another year as chief of po
lico. Tho power of appointment lies
with tho mayor, but his selection must
bo confirmed by the council. Kumor
has It that even If Mayor Hackott did
appoint Chief Hlanehard for another
year, tho council would refuse to sanc
tion the appointment
On the other hand, there are sev
eral app'lrants for the post, which Is
tne boBt paid of all municipal Jobs.
iicnry ( ookc. the veteran of the po
lice department, and Night Patrolman
(icorge Woodward, both would like lo
have tho plum anil friends of each aro
active in urging their selection. Lee
French, at present elevator operator
and ror several years a night patrol
man and F. C. Iltirk, who acted oh
chief while Hlanehard was on the Mex
ican border with the militia, also hnve
their eyes on the Job.
Tho change will take place either
on January 1 or Immediately thereaft
er. In tho past Informal council meet
ings attended by the new members
have been held to make the selection
nnd the formal appointments made at
the first regular meeting In the new
year.
Besides the change In the chief of
police, new committees will be ap
pointed on the council, now patrolmen
selected or tho present officers reap
pointed and a street commissioner se
lected. Any attempt to remove Com
missioner C. C. Habcock will probably
be met with strong opposition. A

to appoint F. C. Hurk to the post, but
only one councilman voted for his confirmation.

WASHINGTON, Doc. 11. Every
member of President Wilson's cablnot
with tho possible exception of Attor
ney-General Gregory, expects to ro-
maln in offlco after March 4, whon
tho president's second term begins. It
was lenmed definitely today that all
of them have boon or will bo askod
to keep tholr posts.
Reports concerning posHlblo roglsnu
Hons have centered chiefly around
Secretaries McAdno, Houston and Ha
kor, and tho attorney-general. It has
been taken for granted that PoBtmu
ter-Goncral Ilurleson and Socrotarlos
Lansing, Danlols and WPson will re
main, and indefinite rumors that Sec
retary Iledflold might wish to rotlro
to prlvuto business wore denied some
time ago.
Secretary McAdoo today personally
denied that ho had any Intention of
resigning. Regarding Mr. Houston, It
bocame known that tho officials of
Washington University at St. Louis
have extended his leave of absence lis
chancellor of that Instltitlnn so that
he can continuo as head of the depart
mont of agriculture.
Although Secretary Hakor has boon
credited with a desire to loave the cab
Inot, it Is loomed that In all likelihood
he will remain. It Is understood, how
ever, that there Is a possibility Hint
he may be shifted to tho department of
Justice If Mr. Gregory Insists on re
signing, and that Vance C. McCormlck,
chairman of tho Democratic national
committee, may he placed In charge
of the war department.
The president has offered Mr. Greg
ory a seat on tho supreme court once
and should another vacancy occur dur
ing the administration it Is thought
probable that he would be seriously
considered again.
