SEATTLE, Wash, July 13. The fea
ture of the day lor the Mystic Shrlners
drawn to Seattle by the annual meeting-
of the imperial council was the
procession which escorted the imperial
officers from headuarters through the
principal streets of the city and to the
council hall. Six miles of soldierly
men, fclad in Zouave and Hussar gar
ments of silk and velvet, of all colors
and gorgeously ornamented with gold
and silver lace, made a moving picture
that delighted the eyes of a multitude
who cheered the marchers. Lulu tem
ple, Philadelphia, with its mounted and
foot patrols under band, and ilola tem
ple of St. Joseph. Mo., led by three
camels harnessed to a cart, attracted
much attention.
At the Moore Theater the Imperial
council hurried through its opening
session of music and speeches, for
there was much sightseeing scheduled
for the afternoon, including a steamer
rida to the Navy-yard at Bremerton
and automobile rides about the city
and beyond its borders.
Ladles Are Entertained.
A.' lawn fete had been arranged at
Volunteer Park for the visiting ladies.
The Al Malaikah chanters, Los Angeles;
the Moslem temple band. Detroit; El
Segal temple octet, Fargo, N. D-i the
Ararat temple band, Kansas City; the
Moslem temple patrol, Detroit; the
Moolah temple chanters, St. Louis; the
Aloha temple patrol, Honolulu; the El
Mina temple band. Galveston, and the
Cordon bagpipers of Gizeh temple, Vic

Open house for visiting ladies was
maintained by the wives of many Seat
tie Shriners. Mrs. Frederick R. Smith,
wife of the imperial potentate, held a
reception at the Hotel Washington.
Al Kader band of Portland furnished
music for a children's dancing party
at the imperial grandstand.
Tonight a great throng of people
gathered at the Port Commission cen
tral pier, where a concert was given
by Islam temple band, San Francisco;
El Katif temple band, Spokane, and
Abdallah temple band, Leavenworth,
Kan. In Pioneer square Ismailia temple
band, Buffalo, delighted many people
and" Al Malaikah temple band drew a
crowd that filled City Hall Park. At
the official grandstand Lulu temple
band of Philadelphia played.
Three great balls in honor of the
Shriners also were given. They were
in the State Armory, the Hippodrome
and at the Port Commission pier. All
these entertainments seemed not to
lessen the throng' of Shriners on the
streets, however, and the downtown
district wore a holiday aspect. The
temples which possess bands appear
indisposed to have them unemployed,
and the Zouaves are always ready for
special parades and concerts.
Portland Man Candidate.
The imperial council tomorrow will
take up the election of an imperial
outer guard. The candidates are John
T. Buckbee, Tebala temple, Rockford,
111..: William C. Bristol, Al Kader tem
ple, Portland; James E. Chandler, Ara
rat temple, Kansas City; Colonel George
Filmer, Islam temple, San Francisco;
Forest Adair, Ye Arab temple. Atlanta,
and James E. Burger, El Jebel temple.
Denver. Northwest temples are solid
behind Mr. Bristol's candidacy.
In addition to Manila, Houston and
Knoxville, Roanoke, Va.. is seeking a
dispensation for a temple. A templo
must begin with a membership of 400
and yet leave in the mother temple
1000 members. ,
Tomorrow is to be Portland day at
the conclave and many visitors are ex
pected to swell the number already in
the city.
6 0 00 VISITORS ARE EXPECTED
Portland Slirlners Ready to Enter
tain Brethren on Friday.
An all-day search yesterday revealed
two or three or half a dozen weary and
disappointed Shriners fretting in their
offices in Portland while their fellows
were having the time of their gay
young lives at Seattle.
The proverbial fine-tooth comb would
reveal no more than a dozen fez
wearers yesterday, and it is certain
that at least 30 per cent of them would
have been found making arrangements
to leave for Seattle last night, as today
is Portland day at the big conclave on
the Sound.
Those who were not making arrange
ments for leaving yesterday were pre
paring to entertain the great army of
Shriners who will be here later In the
week on their way from Seattle to San
Francisco.
It is estimated that more than 6000
of them will be here on Friday alone.
Friday will be ,the big day, so far as
Portland is concerned. It will be
Shrine day in Portland like today Is
Portland day In Shrinedom.
. Through the irony of fate W. J. Hof
mann, general chairman of the Port
land entertainment committee, is so
busy with his work of preparing for
the big time here on Friday and Sat
urday that he is unable to get away
to share in the Seattle entertainments.
He will be busy from now until Fri
day morning arranging for the recep
tion to the visitors. The first big party
will be here tomorrow night, and con
sists of about 400 members of Medinah
Temple, of Chicago. They are traveling
with two special trains and are car
rying a band and a uniformed patrol.
They will arrive over the O.-W. R. &
N. line at 1 o'clock and will leave over
the Southern Pacific at 11 the same
night.
Automobile rides through some of
the best residence districts and a series
of pictures at the Multnomah Hotel
are the principal items of entertain
ment planned for them. S. C. Lancaster
and Henry Berger will show their
handsome colored photographic plataa
of the Columbia River Highway and
will explain to the visitors the various
scenes represented.
A committee headed by J. Fred Lar
son will greet the Chicagoans at the
Ftation and will escort them to the
Multnomah Hotel, where they will have
their headquarters. A big battery of
automobiles will be required to accom
modate all the visitors.
For the big Invasion on Friday many
unusual accommodations have, been
provided by the Portland committee.
Sight-seeing automobiles and street
cars have been chartered to take par
ties of visitors on trips through the
city. Stops will be made at the For
estry building and at Council Crest,
where lecturers will explain the items
Of interest.
A- meeting of all the committee
chairmen who remain in the city win
be held at the Imperial Hotel at noon
today to- make final arrangements for
Friday's and Saturday's festivities.
WARRANTS GOOD AS TAXES
State Supreme Court Rules Klamath
County Must Accept Own Paper.
SALEM, Or., July 13. (Special.)
I he Supreme Court today. In an
opinion by Justice Harris, held that
Klamath County must accept county
warrants totaling $10,400 as part of
the Southern Pacific Company's taxes
for 1914. The warrants were Issued in
1912 by the county because, in error,
the Assessor had collected several
thousand dollars t much in taxes on
personalty.
According to the complaint the com
pany owed $179.95 taxes on personal
property in 1912. but through error
$17,454.99 was collected. When rhe mis
take was discovered Klamath County
had expended the money, and the au
thorities directed the issuance of war
rants for all over S179.95. When the
warrants were tendered as part pay
ment for taxes for 1914 the County
Treasurer would not accept them.

Meeting at Roseburg.
INDORSEMENT GIVEN PLAN
Mr. Benson Outlines Way to Give Aid
to Counties in Work and Reports)
Pacific Route to Be in
Fairly Good Condition.
ROSEBL'RG, Or.. July 13. (Special.)
Escorted along the Pacific Highway
by County Judges and Commissioners
of the counties through which they
parsed. S. Benson. J. H. Albert and
Leslie Butler, members of the advisory
board of the State Highway Commis
sion, accompanied by E. L Cantine. as
sistant state highway engineer, are
meeting with a demand for state aid
for roads through Western Oregon.
Mr. Benson at a meeting of Roseburg
business men this afternoon struck the
keynote to the situation by voicing
the need for a state bond issue t
$10,000,000 to build main trunk lines
throughout Oregon, the interest and
principal of the bonds to be paid from
tne current tax revenues of the state.
It is considered impossible. In view
of the low tax levy for road purposes,
to meet the demands of the various
sections of the state, and the only way
is predicted in the bond issue.
Boad-lssse Plan Iadoraed.
At a largely attended meeting at the
Roseburg Commercial Club today, the
proposition was indorsed after being
presented by Mr. Benson and the other
members of the party.
As outlined by Mr. Benson, the plan
contemplates the Issue of bonds to the
amount of $10,000,000. extending over
a period of 25 years, the proceeds from
the sale to be used to build permanent
roads that are primarily state high
ways. Mr. Benson favored the appoint
ment of a State Highway Commission
of five members, three from Western
Oregon and two from Eastern Oregon,
to serve without pay.
This commission. It is suggested,
shall be entirely In charge of perma
nent state road work and shall employ
an engineer of wide experience for
the technical work.
Illschway Condition Keporte Good.
"The Pacific Highway, generally
speaking. Is In good condition for Sum
mer travel." declared Mr. Benson, "but
there are numerous dangerous railway
crossings that should be eliminated, as
well as numerous heavy grades that
need adjusting, that mean that the
road must be relocated for distances
before it is attempted to spend money
to make it permanent, and there are
places that demand resurfacing before
the route can be put; in condition for
Winter travel.
"To build and maintain roads Is an
Impossible task for one county. State
aid in some form must be forthcom
ing. To my mind, the bond issue pre
sents the only solution to' the prob
lem." Leslie Butler spoke In favor of the
bond 1 ssue, and said he believed there
is no one thlnor that can he done that

will so greatly promote the state's
prosperity.
J. H. Albert went Into the bond
proposition in some detail and pro
nounced It entirely practicable. He
said the Inability of ,tbe counties to
Increase their levies for road pur
poses makes it Impossible for them to
carry on this work at present In any
other way.
Deputy Engineer Cantine assured
the Roseburg people that the object of
the state officials In making the trip
Is to learn the needs of this section
and to aid ln every possible way.
Responding on the part of Douglas
County, County Court officials and
prominent citizens declared themselves
favorable to the bond Issue for per
manent state roads and declared they
will take early steps to obtain a sur
vey of a permanent Pacific Highway
through the county.
