AUTHOR UPHOLDS BIG PAX
IlnancA Com nil 1 1 to Submit New
List for Two and Four-Year
Terms Later Many in FaTor
of Fire-Man Plan.
Discussion centered about the ques
tion or salaries for city official at
the meeting of the Charter Commission
at the City Hall Wednesday night.
The submission of a tentative sched
ule of salaries by Adolph Wolfe, chair
man of the committee on finance, pro
voked the arguments, many holding
with Rufua E. Holman. also a member
of the finance committee, that the sal
ary scale suggested In the report was
too high.
The question of salary Is the rock
on which this charter Is apt to be
wrecked." said City Attorney Grant.
He urged that the committee should
use the utmost caution In the action
It might take on this subject. Mr.
Wolfe defended the schedule earnest
ly, holding; that If the city waa to ob
tain efficient men It would be obliged
to pay them well for their services.
Just as any business man would be
obliged to do In obtaining satisfactory
employes. Poor salaries he contended
would attract only Inefficient men. and
would, in the long run. prove more
expensive to the city on account of the
possibility of Inefficient service and
mismanagement.
Report I Sent Back.
The schedule submitted last .night
was drawn up en the basis of a two
year term of office. If the term of of
fice were extended to four years. It
was the common opinion of the mem
bers of the commission that a different
scale should obtain, since, with an as
surance of a longer term of service,
officials would be willing to nndertake
the work at a salary somewhat lower.
After long discussion the report was re
ferred back to the finance committee
with Instructions that It should prepare
new schedules on the basis of a four
year and a two-year term of office, and
hold these In readiness for submission
at one of the later meetings.
The report submitted by Mr. Wolfe,
ore the basts of a two-year term for all
officials, who should devote all of their
time to the duties of their offices, gave
the following seal of salaries: Mayor.
$o0o per annum: each commissioner,
WOO; City Auditor. SlSOe; City Treas
urer. t00. All salaries of subordi
nate officers were to be subject to the
discretion of the commission, with the
exception of the office of City Engi
neer, whose salary should b J5000 a
yesr. the City Attorney ti09 and the,
City Judge 11400.
ITlve-Man Plan Favored.
Ia connection with the discussion ot
salaries, the Question of the uumber
of members who should make up the
commission was argued at length, al
though no definite action was taken.
J. K. Werlein. R. E. Holman and oth
ers were strongly In favor of a com
mission of five members Including the
Mayor, while & Orutxe. Adolphe Wolfe
and O. W. Taylor favored six com
mlssloners and a Mayor.
At the meeting on next Tuesday night
the committee on public utilities win
mske Its report. It was also decided
to place the subject of the civil service
In the hands of a committee of three,
which will be appointed today by the

Exalted Ruler Portland Lodge of EJks.
HARLOWTON, Mont. July 6. (Spe
cial.) The entertainment On board the
Portland Elks' special train last night
was an event that will remain
forever in the minds of the Jolly mem
bers who were fortunate enough to be
present. Music was plentiful. Many
numbers were given on the orchestral
grand and the beautiful vlctrola fur
nished by Mr. Kilers.
Several numbers were given by "the
famous entertainers." Charles Fair and
William Webb, who styled themselves
"the Chocolate Soldiers." Their beau
tiful "execution" of that famous opera,
their late musical hits, their witty say
ings and their contortion feats made all
aboard feel that the best number of the
Orpheum circuit had been witnessed.
Dr. A. E. Marshall, "the unknown,"
demonstrated hla ability as an elocu
tionist by reciting Shakespeare. It was
learned today for the first time that
Brother Marshall was a member of the
troupe that supported the famous actor.
Sir Henry ilrvlng. on one of his Ameri
can tours. Dr. Harry McKay gave a
number of the programme that was in
teresting and instructive.
National Airs Sung.
After the entertainment Independence
day was celebrated by the singing of
National airs and a beautiful display of
fireworks from the rear platform of the
observation car. This demonstration of
the patriotism of the American Elks
was enjoyed by all.
The finest equipped train that ever
crossed the continent was now speed
ing by the matchless panorama of rich
fields and fertile uplands then alone;
the weird and uncanny watershed of
mysterious Rock Lake, the depth of
which is unknown. Its banks rise aa
forbidding- rocky barriers . sheer from
the lake, as perfectly palisaded
as the far-famed Uudson. The strange
disappearance of the noble redman,
whose legends cluster about this mys
terious spot, are told to the traveler In
subdued tones how the redman sees
the hand of the Great Spirit In every
tree and stone and brook for which
his own Imagination cannot supply a
reasonable understanding'.
After the patriotic demonstration.
there was a dance given In one of
the dining-rooms which was cleared
for the occasion. After an enjoyable
two hours of dancing, the evening's
festivities were closed.
During the day of the Fourth, owing
to the many celebrations in the small
towns, great crowds turned out at the
depots to pay tribute to the .iks ana
wish them godspeed on their Jour
ney. At Tekoa, a beautiful and flour
ishing city of some 4000 Inhabitants,
Mr. Judd. of Astoria, Introduced the
exalted ruler of Portland lodge. K. K.
Kubll. who responded to the Introduc
tion by congratulating- the people of
that prosperous section upon their
patriotism and the universal desire of
all true Americans to keep In mind
the spirit object and meaning of the
Fourth of July. He called their at
tention to the prosperous, growing,
beautiful Portland, and that the Elks
were speeding to Atlantic City to cap
ture the great National Elks' conven
tion for Portland in 1912.
At the next stop. Dr. Harry F. Mc
Kay was called to the front and In ad
dition to saying what he could to
advertise Portland, "broke loose" with
a patriotism that would do credit to
Patrick Henry.
St. Maries Captured.
With similar bursts of eloquence he
captivated the populace of St. Maries,
Idaho.
With all the great receptions given
the Elks' special up to today, and par
ticularly the one at Tacoma, the climax
did not arrive until the special reached
Butte. The hospitality of the Elks of
Butte and the manner in which the
general public of the great mining
town received the Elks' special cannot
be forgotten. With automobiles, cars
and all, and every kind of vehicle de
manded during the two -hours' stay,
Portland Elks were properly intro
duced to Butte.
On the main street of city, after the
populace had been rewarded in their
desire to hear the famous song, "Port
land Wants You in 1912." by hearing
Frank Hennessey Bing it, J. W. Casey
was introduced and made an eloquent
speech of thanks to Butte. He as
sured the people' that the convention
of Elks in 1912 was assured and ex
tended invitations for them to come
here.
The writer has Just received a tele
gram from Aberdeen, South Dakota,
saying no expense had been spared for
our entertainment at that place.

Commander J. M. Ellicott Says
Cleanliness and Subordination
Are First Requirements.

avoid is the idea that your ship is a

Is lent to you by the United States
Government that you may train your

prominent citizens and members of the
Naval Militia.
Guests began to arrive in launches
shortly before 8 o'clock and were re
ceived on the after deck by Captain
Reynolds and his officers. A band
played selections at Intervals through
out the evening.
B. F. Irvine, representing the Gov
ernor, was the first speaker. He grave
a brief history of the Boston and her
part In the battle of Manila Bp.y. Com
mander Ellicott, who next spoke,
dwelt on the primary requisites in the
training of a seaman. The first es
sential he declared to be cleanliness
and the second subordination.
"The United States Navy is fully
trained for war," said Commander El
licott, "and I believe that if the Navy
should meet another fleet In battle .we
could strike a most terrible blow. But
the United States Navy ts not on a
war footing. To havo it so wo would
have to have transports, coast defense
ships, patrol boats and a number of
otler vessels. The enllste-1 forco Is
J sufficient to man our baltleshUs
tcc"ay. The enlisted force for the ci
pacded Navy is not sultlci-jnt. We
would have to draw it from somewhere
else. The Government does not want
raw recruits. It must have tralt.ed
nicr. It must have tnem fit for Avar
when war oomes. T-ie training has
got to be systematic.
"Another great essential is subordi
nation. No military organisation no
naval organization can over attain
anything without subordination. The
lowest man. the highest officer, must
learn to be subordinate to thone above
h'm. You must divest yourself a! the
idea that subordination is peraonui. It
is your duty to your country, to your
state, to your organization, to be sub
ordinate. "1 was on this good ship in Manila
Bay I was in that battle with Ad
miral Dewey. This ship was hit sev
eral times by shells. I tell you, offi
cers and men of the -Naval Militia, If
you can live up to these Ideals of clean
liness and subordination, this ship can
again be Just as useful to her country
as she was In the battle of Manila
Bay."

Patrolmen Assigned New Beats.
There was a general shape-up on the

Are You
a Neurasthenic?
Neurasthenia is the physi-
cian's name for a condition
of weakness or exhaustion
of the nervoua system. Tha

over trifles, is often depressed and irritable, is subject to
headaches or a feeling of pressure on the head, is sleepless
and sometimes the digestion is disturbed. Overwork oil
excesses may cause the trouble.
: The treatment consists largely in rest, recreation and tha
use of a tonic, the discontinuance of any practice that may.
