I RULER S REPORT.
Recommends plans for completing
new Elks' National home project at i
Bedford. Va. ' ' -
Recommends pensions for widows
of past fraud exalted rulers.
Denounces use of lodge emblem for
commercial or advertising purposes.
Discourages immediate erection of -tuberculosis

Recommends statute" providing for
more universal observance of the 11

Recommends statute reducing pop
ulation of cities In which new lodges
are organized from 9000 to 3000,
based on Federal census.
Recommends that other than of
ficial emblems bt not worn by Elks.
Crges members to solicit Congres
sional support of measure aimed at v
negro pretenders of Elks.
To reduce the population required of
' a city in order to establish a lodge of
Elks from 5000 to 3000. probably is the
most important recommendation made
by Grand' Exalted Ruler Sullivan in his
annual report to the (rand lodge, sub
mitted yesterday.
Mr. Sullivan believes that the pres
ent method of determining- population
is unjust; he advises, therefore, that
in all future applications the basis of
computing the population shall, be the
state census, or, when that Is not
thought Just, the United States census.
' His proposed change In the statutes
follows:
"Subordinate lodges may be institut
ed in any city or incorporated village
, in the United States of America, or its
possessions, having within its cor
porate limits 5000 or more inhabitants,
according to the last state census, or
9000 according to the last National
census."
Population Often Incorrect.
Heretofore there has been consider
able dissatisfaction in granting dis
pensations for organizations of new
lodges. Frequently municipal census Is
taken showing population of .5000 or
more, which is required beforean Elks'
lodge can be Instituted, but it is known
that in many instances these counts
have been Incorrect, and the grand ex
alted ruler, having received petitions
-certified to by the Mayor .or Clerk of
the municipality, could do naught but
grant the dispensations.
The grand exalted ruler gives serious
consideration to the new Elks' National
home project, which is one of the most
weighty problems before the grand
lodge at this session.' He points out
the gravity of the situation, which calls
for the construction of an Institution
which cannot be built for less than
(500.000, and for which but 180,000 Is
available.
The Atlantic City session created a
National home commission, which has
wrestled with these problems for the
last year. An architect was employed,
who prepared plans and specifications.
Tax la Levied.
A per capita tax of 25 cents for each
member on the rolls of each subor
dinate lodge on September 1. 1911. was
levied, and this fund was to be used for
building a home. s
On May 23, 1912. the commission met
in Cincinnati. Bids were received for
the construction of the home in ac
cordance with plans and specifications
prepared by the architect, The lowest
hid received approximated $396,000,
' which did not Include kitchen and
laundry equipment, engines and boilers,
for which additional bids will be neces
sary. In addition thereto, must be con
sidered the cost of furnishing the new
building when completed.
Therefore, it readily can be seen that
the grand lodge, acting under the reso
lution levying a per capita tax for one
year only, charged th new Elks' Na
tional home commission with an under
taking impossible of accomplishment
- In a financial way: in other words, the
grand lodge placed at the disposal of
the new Elks' National home commis-
Bion approximately $80,000 with which
to erect and furnish and pay for a
$500,000. proposition.
Plana Drawn Carefnlly.
The', new Elks' National home com
mission, after receiving bids, was con
fronted with a condition of which solu
tion cenld only be made by the grand
lodge at the Portland tasslon.
The plans and specifications have
been carefully drawn and every provi
sion made for every comfort for the
residents of the home. The commis
sion, therefore, has referred the entire
. subject-matter to the grand lodge. It
is proposed that the grand lodge will
evojve a financial plan by which the
contractors, should the bid be accepted,
can be paid in cash as the work pro
gresses, and the new Elks' National
home at Bedford City be made an early
realization.
The qew Elks National commission,
'of which Past Grand Exalted Ruler
August Herrmann Is' chairman, has
i labored to give to the order a monu
ment suitable for" taking care of those
imho may. by misfortune, seek shelter
under the roof of the National home.
(Expenses Are Allowed. .
Under the statute of the grand
, lodge, the expenses of each past grand
'exalted ruler for attendance at the
' grand lodge conventions are allowed,
'and the presence of all past grand ex
.alted rules at the various sessions is
urged. The past grand exalted rulers
(constitute a committee on the good of
the order. - ..
In view of the fact that these ex
tpenses are allowed, Mr. Sullivan recom-
mended that widows of past grand
exalted rulers who may .be in actual
want, be paid an annual pension
'equivalent at least to the amount of
! their expenses and per diem fee of $10.
A grand lodge statute prohibits mem
bers from using the certificate of
- 'membership or any name or emblem of
Ithe order on ' labels, signs, cards,
'periodicals or business literature of any
kind for commercial or political pur
i poses, "and charges the subordinate
; lodges with the responsibility of prose
cuting offenders. In the last year,
'v the reDOrt. complaints have been
: made about non-members of the order
' u.lna- the emblem lor aavertising pur-
' poses, and in every Instance where re
quests for a cessation of the practlco
has been made, it has been complied
with. .
Inasmuch as provision has not yet
been made for the erection of the new
' National home, the grand exalted ruler
In his report considers it Inadvisable
to attempt to construct a tuDercuiosis
sanitarium at this time. He asks the
PAPtianii mnvntlnn 1 1 dve the sub
ject careful consideration, however.
Observance of the eleven o ciock nour
has always been faithfully practiced
by the various subordinate lodges, but
the grand exalted ruler urges still fur
ther observance, and In accordance
with this idea has drafted the follow
ing statutes which he asks the con
vention to adopt:
"It shall be the duty of each subor
dinate lodge to observe the hour of
eleven, nightly. The rooms shall be
rfoi-voneri the chimes toll the hour, the
eleven o'clock toast recited, and ' all
members present shall join in singing
the verses of 'Auld Lang Syne.'" . ..
J ' Uniform Emblem Used.
His onlnion on the .use of unofficial
observances is expressed as follows:
- "Our membership is now wearing
many emblems of different design, and.
so there shall be no conflict regarding
similarity with emblems of other or
ganizations, I recommend that the of
ficial emblem as adopted by the Dallas
convention be worn exclusively: This
emblem being the combination of a
dial showing the hour of eleven with a
white face and red Roman numerals
circumscribed by a blue circle contain
ing the initials 'B. P. O. E.,' on which
i i ..a .i.i. ahaii mat An elk's head
and antlers, which shall be surmounted
by a red star.

REDUCTION IS PLAN
Per Capita Tax Lessening Is
Recommended in Report.
TRUSTEES PLAN MEMORIAL
Suitable Tribute to Be Paid to Late
Thomas Grattan RIggs, One of, the
Founders , of Order Finance
Question One of Puzzlers.
A reduction of the per capita tax
from EO cents to 26 cents is recom
mended by the Elks' Grand Lodge
trustees in their annual report submit
ted yesterday. This is because the
finances of the grand lodge now are
in such condition that the lesseremount
will support it. Tbe per capita tax is
paid from the treasury of the subor
dinate lodges.
The board of trustees is the custo
dian of the grand lodge funds and its
property and is charged with the con
duct of the grand lodge business. It
also has charge of the National home
at Bedford. Va.
The board met during the year as
follows: At Bedford City, September
1S-17, 1911; at Dubuque, la., October
9-10, 1911, and at Bedford City. March
25, 1912. They a J so held meetings and
transacted business, when, as members
of the Elks National Home commis
sion, they were summoned by the chair
man of that commission to meet as fol
lows: At Cincinnati. August 23, 1911;
at Chicago, January 23, 1912; at Cin
cinnati, March 24, 1912, and at Chicago,
May 27. 1912.
,. Rlaes Memorial Planned.
The trustees will ask the grand lodge
to appropriate 9400 to erect a suitable
memorial over the grave of th late
Thomas Grattan Rlggs. one of the
founders of the order, who died re
cently on the Island of Tasmania.
The new Elks' National Home com
mission, which was authorized . last
year to proceed with the erection of a
home at Bedford, Va.. for dependent
members of the order, has been unable
to have the specified work done for
less than 500,000.
In view of the fact that this amount
is far In excess of the original esti
mates, and also that fip to the present
time there is only available for this
purpose the sum of approximately $73
500, the commission determined not to
take any action, with inference to any
of the bids received, but to submit the
entire matter to the grand lodge for
further consideration. The certified
checks have been returned to all the
bidders, and if it is decided to proceed
with the work, no doubt contracts can
be entered into at the prices .designated
by one of the low bidders. . '
Finance Question Pussies.
As to how finances should be raised
Is a matter of such importance that It
should be determined by the. grand
lodge. It la tbe opinion, however, that
-y 5gjSitasiart.CA-nafc. 'V jm'a a , i
8
mm
if it Is decided te- proceed with the
work that -then an additional per capita
tax of 50 cents upon each member of
the order should be made at once, to be
foUowed by a similar amount in a
year hence, which, with the money al
ready on hand, will create a fund of
approximately $500,000.
The entire matter is now submitted
to the grand lodge for its considera
tion. Secretaries of subordinate lodges are
censured by the following report of the
auditing committee:
For many years past, the auditing commit
tees and the grand secretary have endea
vored to impress upon the secretaries of the
various lodges tho importance of making an
accurate ' and complete report of the remit
tances made during the year to, the offlce of
the grand secretary. It appears that the sec
retaries have teen very careless, or very In
different, in filling that part of the annual
report wherein It is Intended to show the re
mittances by item made to the office of the
grand secretary during the year. A year or so
affo. a plan was suggested and the law so
changed compelling a secretary to fill out a
remittance blank, sending the original to the
offlce of the grand secretary and a duplicate
to the chairman of the auditing committee
for each remittance. This plan has been
In operation for the past year, and from our
Investigation we cannot see that this plan
has been an Improvement over the former
method, for the reason that as usui-l many
secretaries have disregarded the law. The
grand secretary has put forth every effort
to endeavor to have all the secretaries for
ward the necessary blanks. He has taken
tt upon himself to write 783 -letters while
the chairman of your committee has writ
ten over J50 letters calling their attention
to their several delinquencies.
Elk Protection Urged, ..
Further protection of the elk in the
wilds of the Western hills Is urged in
the following - report of the committee
on the preservation, of elk. which con
sists pf Rush L. Holland, of Colorado
Springs, chairman; Joseph T. Fanning,
of Indianapolis; William J. O'Brien, Jr.,
of Baltimore: Senator George E. Cham
berlain, of Portland, and Edward J.
Kelly, of Cheyenne: . .
This committee believes that the Preser
vation of elk can best be accomplished
Jfrough the agency of the Federal Govern
ment, by the creation and maintenance -of
game preserves, and the enactment and rig
Id enforcement of stringent laws protecting
such preserves against the hunter. In no
other way can the encroachment of civili
sation on the Winter feeding grounds be
effectually accomplished. The co-operation
of the states In. which , elk abound Is also
absolutely necersary. We believe that the
enactment Into law of the several bills now
pending - in the Congress of the Un'ted
States, to which reference has been made
In this report, will mark .the beginning of
effectual protection, and that thereby the
elk will be saved to posterity.
- The creation of game preserves by tts
states will, we believe, follow as a natural
consequence upon the enactment Into law
of H0US9 bill No. 23839, now penuins. we
recommend that this measure be called to
the attention of the various lodffes of the
order: first, to the end that influence may
be brought to bear to secure its pasEage,
and second, to the end that states wherein
elk abound will speedily avail themselves
or tne opportunity w
magnificent big-game animals and should
spur eacn one on w w.vo .i,ui . -
bill by writing to the Congressman from
his district. As a law the bill would make
a new era In game protection.

Men began to do the "goose step"
headed by some essence of energy
armed only with a single drum, a plc
calo, or, failing that, even with a tin

Early in the morning bands began
calling at every hotel to rouse the
sluggards and collect battalions. The
Baker band, with Its famous quartet
and their battle cry of "Is everybody
happy?" appeared early on the scene.
Arrayed In uniforms of green the 22
Bakerltes made a good display. They
were down at the station, around back

In rapid succession, playing vigorously
all the while.
Ragtime Tunes Prevail.
Others followed with marvelous cel
erity. The music they played, with
hardly any exceptions, was of the light
comedy, order and of the "ragtime"
suasion. As one of the crowd aptly
remarked, "We're not here for opera,
we're here for fun and frolic. That's
why we want the old favorites that
everybody can whistle or sing or hol

doing what?" Fiddling upon the vio

companied by this beautiful doll or
that, while the honey men were as
thick as files around a pot of preserve.
Certainly it was difficult to find
anyone yesterday who did not respond.
At all corners, wherever the bands
stopped, crowds gathered rapidly. Then
they whistled or they sang, each to

The dedication ceremonies took pla;e
In a part of the parkway high above
the city, where the automobiles wers
grouped in a half circle and a speak
ers' stand was made out of the top of a
nearby bank covered with clover, with
a background of pines, firs and ferns.
An Interesting programme of speaking
and music was carried out, Bert Jones,
of South Portland, acting as chairman.
The first speaker was C. B. Merrl-k,
who heads the organizations which
have been instrumental ' In bringing
about the Terwilliger project. He. spoke
of the ceremonies being In honor of
the completion of the first link of
what will be one of the most scenic

and south on Seventh.
Cost Complete 9135,000.
The part of the boulevard which has
been completed is 6000 feet In length.
An extension of 8000 feet in length Is
to be made before tbe project will be
completed. The work so far has cost
146.000 and the remaining work prob
ably will cost upwards of IjO.000. The
plan is to extend the driveway from
Sixth street around the hillsides nearly
three miles to the Blavln Road. Ul
timately the plan Is to build It on
down through Fulton Park. The con
tract for the extension of the drive
way over the property recently donated
by the O.-W. R & N. Co. probably will
be awarded this week.
The property over which the fin
ished part of the boulevard extends
was donated to the city by the heirs
of James Terwllllger. from whom the
driveway has derived Its name.
Mr. Terwllllger was a pioneer of the
early days, having .arrived fn Oregon
with an ox tern in 1845, after suffering
many privations.
He was born of Holland parents on
a farm in Ulster County, New York,
October 3, 1809. His grandfather was
In the Revolutionary War and his
father was In the War of 1812. Mr.
Terwllllger held a commission as Colo
nel In one of the early Oregon regi
ments. He resided In Ithaca. Mew Tork.
for a time, from which place he went
to Illinois, coming to Oregon soon aft
erward. Together with his wife he
acquired" a donation land claim of 840
acres south of the village, where the
family resided for many years. All of
this land Is now within the city limits
of Portland, and on the death of Mr.
Terwllllger, September 1, 1892. at the
age of 83, he bequeathed what he had
not already deeded to his children in
equal shares. They and his grandchil
dren desiring to honor the memory of
this worthy pioneer ancestor and bene
factor, deeded to Portland December
20. 1909, a strip of land 200 feet wide
and a mile In length, extending along
the hillside In South Portland, to be
forever used as a park and boulevard
by the city for the use of the public.
Park Board to Aid.
The Park Board has since graded
the driveway, later will hard surface
