MORE DISMISSALS LIKELY After Officially Beheading Officers Imrolird In Scandal, Mayor Sajs End Yet to Come Successors to Higher Men Named. A clran sweep of patrolmen and T-izher-upa In the police department t ho were Involved In the recent In vestigations which brought out evi dence of gambling, political Jugglery, trickery, police protection to fallen women, and other offenses against many In the department, was made yes terday by Mayor Albee. when he dis charged 12 members of the police force n various charges. The official ax lopped off the heads of two captains. K. A. Siover and Harry Tillcy: three sergeants. C. J. Rupert. I nomas J. Casey and A. I Pres.y. and seven patrolmen. John M. Jones. A. i i-chir.-ner, R. U Whiteside. Charles F. "rey. O. E. Fuller, B. D. Hutchlns and JI. Christofferson. In addition to tbe usual explanation. "tor the good of the servire." Mayor Albee gave specific reasons for dismis sals in each case. Following the dismissals which took effect yesterday afternoon the Mayor appointed C. A. Inskeep and Leon V Jenkins to the positions of captains. riven It place. We have moved Into a new police station, have discarded the old station; we start with every thing fresh and clean. I have felt with this start we should eliminate those men who have been a detriment to the service. "My ambition since becoming- Mayor has been to elevate tbe department to a good moral plane. I want the un der dog to have Just aa much of a square oeai as the man above. I do not be lieve In sending bouquets to those who are unfortunate enough to be In Jail lor committing an offense against so ctcty. but I do believe In these persons being treated as human beings and being given a square deal. "My orders are for polioeraen to be courteous and not to be abusive to any person regardless of bow low he has been. I will not tolerate abuse of the unfortunates. Petty Jealenatrs It e ailed. "Some of the men may have been good officers, but that is not all that is required. Some of them are charged with gambling and some with being trouble makers. They have been the cause of bickerings, petty Jealousies and animosities which have detracted the men from their duties and made the department inefficient to a greater or lesser degree. "Because they have been invested with more authority than ordinary cit izens they have violated the law by gambling, thus indicating that they are exempt from observance of the laws of society whla-h they are paid to enforce. I I consider this a good clean-up of the department and I hope that a hint to the wise will be sufficient and that from now on the men will buckle down GROSS ROADS -AND WAYS HAVE INNING County Commissioners Hear Discussion by Practical Road Builders.

Mayor Albee announced that these ap polntments are temporary, pending the holding of a civil service examination to secure an eligible list from which to make permanent appointments. Men to till the other positions will be an nounced later. Kad In Yet to (car. The shakeup In the department is the most serious that has ever taken place. And the Mayor says the end Is not yet Me says while be probably has swept out ail policemen who were involved deeply enough In tbe recent Investiga tions to warrant discharge, other In 'estimations are to be made by the "ivll Service Board and more dismis sals are likely. The most serious charges In the lot ' are those filed against Captain Siover, a-ho was Acting Chief of Police dur ing the Rush lie lit administration. The charges against Siover read as- fol- lo-vs: "You are hereby notified that vou are r-moved from the service of the City of I ortland. Or, for conduct unbecoming r.n employe and police officer. In rar licular you are charged w!h neglect of :uty in that on or about the 4th day of August. 1313, and on numerous occa jiiuiib prior inereio uuring tne time you have been in the police service of the City of Portland.

The notices of dismissal and charges em out to ail tne others, excepting rairoiman r ruj . read as follows: iou are nereoy nouned that you re removed from the service of the tlty of Portland. Oregon, for conduct unbecoming an employe and. a police officer and in particular you are guilty of gambling on numerous occasions Nlnce you have been employed ns a po nce onicer oy said city of Portland. Oregon, and your dismissal is made for the good of the service and takes effect mis date. ' The notice to Patrolman Frey reads i ou are nereby notified that you are removed from the service of the City of Portland, Oregon, for conduct unbecoming an employe and a police nicer. in particular you are charged with being guilty of gambling during the time that you have been employed y the City of Portland as a police of- ucer ana that you did while off duty, on or about the 12th day of October, 191 J, discharge firearms within the cor porate limits of said City of Portland. regon. and use language unbecoming to officer, and your dismissal Is marie ror the good, of Uie service, taking ef feet this date." In the case of Mr. Frey. w.ho ran for i Ity Commissioner at the election last Spring, the charge of discharging fire arms is said to be iue to his having hunted China pheasants within the city limits uuring tne recent open season Meat Cmm Go to Court. The dismissal of the men was brought about through the activities of mem bers of the Municipal Civil Service Board and particularly Chairman Cald well, of the board. For this reason tne civil service standing of the men brings out a new question in regard to their right for a hearing; of their cases. Ordinarily when an employe of the city Is discharged the charges against !.im are filed" with the Civil Service Hoard, which body gives the employe u neanng. ft - - -V.- . -S r!

Ir.ai-mucii as It was on the initiative of the board members that these dls msals were made, there Is a question as to the recourse. If the board, grants 4. hearing in all probability it will sus tain the charges and Indorse the dis missals. The men then have a right to go into the courts and ask for a re tearing. If the court rules in favor of them they are entitled to another hearing before the Civil Sen-Ice Board, l'tider the conditions In this case the men. it is said, are at the mercy of the board which m instrumental in their discharge. Mayor Albee declares that he made the dismissals In hope that the bicker ings, petty jealousies, trickery and other troubles which have kept the department in an upsoar for years will ue discontinued. "I discharged these men for the good or the service and for nothing else. said Mayor Albee yesterday. "The ex pression 'for the good of the service' is used tn a broad and direct sense and not merely in the stereotyped form that expression generally is used. Kvideaee la Weighed. "I went carefully into the evidence which was taken in the Civil Service Board investigations held recently and reached my conclusions after due con sideration. My only ambition has been to place the police department on clean and proper footing. "I consider that this is the red-letter day for the police department, because there Is a newness to everything. The old ha been wiped, out and the pew. to work and forget all these petty grievances which have kept the depart ment in a continual uproar. As to the future. 1 will say that I will continue to enforce my orders re garding courtesy and fair treatment of the under dog. If any policemen is Im bued with the Idea that he is better than anyone else and by reason of his uthortty is entitled .to greater rights than other citizens, he has the wrong idea and the sooner he leaves the de partment the better off he will be. He will not last if his case comes to my attontion. Iteaaavals Believed Justified. The men who have been discharged have their recourse before the Civil Service Board and tbe courts. I have my evidence, which I bave weighed well and carefully before taking the action I have, and I believe I have been fully justified In making the removals which have been announced. In the recent police Investigations evidence was produced to show that gambling has been going on for months In the Police Athletic CI u brooms, pa trolmen and higher ups having played for money. In the case of Mr. Siover and some of the others charges of po litical trickery and trouble-making were produced. Against air.

"Approximately $4,000,009 will be spent next year," said Mr. Bowlby, "In the construction of new county roads and bridges and in the repair and main tenance of existing roads. Criticism seems to be the portion of all officials who bave the handling of road prob lems. "Local conditions must be taken Into account by each County Court In making- Its plans for 1914. In some coun ties a rainfall of 100 Inches Is met with and in other counties a rainfall as low as 10 or 15 inches is normal. Some counties with tbe largest area have the smallest assessed valuation. Large areas mean a large mileage of necessary roads. . "It must be admitted that the con struction of good roads and bridge Is a technical problem. If your County Surveyor la not an experienced road and bridge engineer, my first advice is to secure a competent road and bridge engineer. Accurate maps and profit should be made showing road condi tions In every county.

Lottie Les ter, the little Seattle school girl, who sought to buy a Panama hat from the Government for her father's Christmas. will soon receive a brand new hat from Assistant Secretary of the Treasury Hamlin. Lottie recently wrote the Treasury that she had saved C2 cents for a new Panama hat. because a "Bel gian hare l)unny" had made a nest out of her fathers old one. "Uncle Sam wishes me to tell you that he received your letter and was very much pleased with it," wrote Hamlin today to Lottie. "He told me to go right out and buy a Panama hat for you, as he did not want to send you one of those ne iook irom .the naughty men who tried to bring them Into the United States without pay ment of the full duty. I found a hat this morning and am sending It to you by parcel post." OLD-COUNTRY (Norta of Scot land) woman was heard the other day mournfully commenting on the scarcity of fresh fish In the realm of Uncle Sam. Her mind was hungrily wandering home to the trawls of Aberdeen, like the Israelites in the wil derness, who harked back to the onion and leek beds of Egypt.

DARKEN GRAY HAIR YOUR Use Grandma's Sage Tea and Sulphur Recipe and No body Will Know. The use of Sage and Sulphur for re storing faded, gray hair to Its natural color dates back to grandmothers time. She used It to keep her hair beautifully dark, glossy and abundant. Whenever her hair fell out or took on that dull, faded or streaked appearance, this sim ple mixture was applied with wonder ful effect But brewing at home is mussy and out-of-date.

A well-known downtown druggist says it darkens the hair so naturally and evenly that nobody can tell It has been applied. You simply dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one strand at a time. By morning the gray hair disappears, and after another ap plication or two. It becomes beautiful ly dark, glossy, soft and abundant. ! Adw I TO MAKE YOUR HAIR MORE BEAUTIFUL To srtvo your hair that glos and lus tre and wavy Miky-pot tn;ss UaO Har mony Hair Beaut ifier.
