Indications now are that at the
special election March 18 in Milwau
kee, the $20,000 bond issue for a mu
nicipal water plant will be carried.
Sentiment seems to favor an enlarg
ed water plant, or the purchase of
the present private water system,
which embraces two plants. It is
provided in .the act that the city shall
purchase Minthorne Spring as the
source of water supply, which has
been tested and found free from con
tamination. It is considered almost
certain that the amendment for estab
lishing a fire department by a tax of
10 mills will also be carried.
There is much interest in the com
ing special election, and there will
probably be a full vote on all five
measures to be submitted.
Mrs. Maggie L. Johnson, clerk, re
ports 270 pupils attending the school,
19 of whom are in the high school de
partment. There will be no high
school graduates this year, but a class
will be turned out in 1914. Eleven
rooms are occupied.
J. W. Wetzler has started on the
erection of a two-story concrete build
ing on the site of his building, which
was destroyed by fire. There is con
siderable inquiry for realty in Milwau

WASHINGTON, March 1 Fiftj
thousand visitors, it was estimated by
railroad officials, had reached Wash
ington tonight. The vanguard of the
250,000 expected to witness the first
inauguration in 20 years of a Demo
cratic president of the United States.
The inaugural conynittee announc
ed late in the day that every detail
for the elaborate ceremonies of Tues
day had been completed and the city,
bedecked in patriotic and holiday ar
ray, already has assumed a jovial
spirit.
Throughout the day Washington
teemed with inaugural activity which
tonight turned into gayety, its histor
ic avenue being transformed into a bril
liant holiday thoroughfare. Enthusi
asm was apparent everywhere in
hotel lobbies, restaurants, theatres
and the main thoroughfares, with ar
riving clubs and military companies,
which are to participate in the inaug
ural parade contributing to the gen
eral excitement.
Official completion of the inaugura
tion plans now await the arrival of
Woodrow Wilson, the President-elect,
who will reach Washington at 3:45
o clock Monday afternoon escorted by
special trainloads of Princeton Uni
versity students and the Essex troop
from New Jersey, which is to act as
his official escort in the inaugural
procession.
Vice-President-elect Marshall spent
the second day in his new home. Af
ter an early morning greeting from
the black-horse troop of cadets from
Culver, Ind., who -are to be his escort
on inauguration day, Mir. Marshall
visited the Senate, over which he is
to preside for the next four years,
and inspected the office in the Capi
tol building that will be Lis.
Late in the afternoon he called on
President Taft, who received him in
the blue room of the White House.
The retiring President gave the running-mate
of his successor a cordial
welcome, expressing his delight to
greet Mm and wishing him and the
new administration success.
The Vice-President-elect, in turn,
smilingly expressed his regret that
Mr. Talt would not be present after
March 4 to aid by his influence in the
assurance of such a consummation:

COMES HERE TO WORK
J. Ronald Stillwell, of Bandon, Or
a brother of B. L. Stillwell, of 615
Duane Street, this city, has arrived
in Portland and will conduct a cam
paign against white slavers. Mr. Still
well's iciea is different from the ideas
of most reformers, for he believes
that white slavery can be stopped by
au educational campaign among the
fathers and mothers -of country girls
would bfop this awful traffic. His
plan is to circulate a great amount of
literature to all country families and
to hae educational moving pictures
exibited alone this same line. He alsn
proposes to have a look-out commit

So great was- the success rof "Phy

was produced by the Presbyterian
Church choir, that the members of
the cas; have been urged ta. produce
it in Canby and will proTiably do so
some time in the nar future. Mrs.
W. C. Green, playing the part of the
adopted daughter, demontsrated her
ability and surprised her many friends
by the natural way in which she play
ed her part, her sweet, melodious
voice being much encored, Harold
Swafford demonstrated that he was a
singer and actor of great ability. MUss
Harrison has been urged to remain
in the cast as those who witnessed
the play say that it would be impos
sible for any one else to fill the part
as well as she. Mr. Harrison's part
was played so well that one would
think that he had the role from the
first instead of just taking it at the
last moment to fill the vacancy caus
ed by the illness of Hugh Kennedy.
The work of the chorus was a great
credit to the drilling given them by
Mrs. Leon DesLarzes.

Minority Report Admits There Is j

Plan
WASHINGTON, March l.--Recom-mendations
for the reform of banking
laws made by a majority report of
the Pujo "congressional committee,
which investigated the "money trust"
are expected here to be followed out
in the next session of Congress.
Congressman Glass, of Virginia, is
expectei to be chairman of the bank
ing committee in the new house, and
it is declared that he is strongly in
favor of the Pujo findings. Glass an
nounced today that the report of his
sub-committee, which investigated the
Aldricii currency plan, is being pre
pared. Bills covering the Pujo and Glass
reports probably will be ready by April
1 for submission to the extra session.
The Jujo "committee recommends that
the money trust inquiry be continued;
but this clause probably will be strick
en out. Many Democrats oppose fur
ther investigation. .
A very lively battle on the floor of
the House is anticipated before the
close of the present session.
The majority report of the Pujo
committee found that:
The money trust is a menace to the
financial welfare of the country.
The-dominating forces in the world
of finance are J. P. Morgan & Co., of
New York; the First National Bank
of New York, and the National City
Bank oi' New York.
Seven Democrats signed the report,
and four Republicans dissented.
Revolutionary reforms in the fiscal
life of the country are recommended
by the report. These include the
regulation of bank .. exchanges and
clearing houses.
The majority report submitted two
model bills, one of which proposes to
prohibit the use of the mails, telegraph
and telephone to stock exchanges in
the furtherance of alleged fraudulent
transactions. It is also proposed to
bar stock exchanges from all use of
public utilities unless they incorpor
ate and their brokers open their books
and records to the state officers and
the postmaster-general.
Hayes, of California; Guernsey, of
Maine, and Heald, of Deleware, pre
sented a minority report, which de
nied that the evidence disclosed the
existence of a money trust, but ad
mitted that it did disclose a danger
ous concentration of credit in New
York, Boston and Chicago.

(By Ralph Kaye)
I realize that clean linen is para
mount to my appearance. I think
that every business man will say the!
same thing. Therefore when he de
cides ou which laundry he will pat
ronise it will be the one where he is
! assured that his colors, cuffs, sairts,
etc., will be treated right.
In the advertisements of a laundry
the points should be brought out that
They know the importance of clean
linen; that tbsey have the methods
and facilities to accomplish this; that
the colors they turn out have just the
rignt finish; that the shirts are
starched and ironed just right and
so on down the line.
Saying that my laundry does the
best vork means nothing. But if I
say that my laundry appreciates the
importance of appearance in business
and social circles and that linen turn
ed out by us has the proper looks, I
am convincing my future customers
that I know what is necessary In
their appearance as well as they do.
An advertisement has to convince
the reader, first that the firm adver
tising appreciates what he should
have; second, that the finest product
of service will accomplish the desir
ed result.

GOVERNOR VETOES
POWER MEASURE
SALEM, Or., March 1. Wielding
the veto axe with a firm hand. Gov
ernor West today clipped off the
heads from 10 Legislative bills. Most
of them are bills creating new offices
or raising the salaries of present of
ficials. Such measures met with no
mercy at the hands of the chief ex
ecutive. Others met the Governor's
disapproval because of the attempt
of the Legislature to usurp the func
tions of state officials, and because of
undesirable provisions in measures
dealing with worthy matters.
Important among the vetoes today
are the Celilo power project, reject
ed because it takes the matter out of
the hands of the state engineer and
puts it in the hands of a Legislative
committee; and the Senate judiciary
committee's bill, represented to be in
aid of the recall but believed to be
aimed at the recall.
Senator Day's hill for the investi
gation of the Celilo power project had
a checkered career in its course
through the Legislature, and all ef
forts to have the investigation put
in charge of the state engineer was
fruitless. As first introduced in the
Senate, it provided that the state en
gineer should have charge. Then the
House refused to accept this, and put
the investigation in charge of the
desert land board. The Senate would
not listen to this change, and, after
going into the hands of a conference
committee, the present form of the
bill was decided on. As finally pass
ed, the bill provided that the investl-
eat'on should tm made unocr Tnp ni
