FEBRUARY 21, 1909. - - II MILITARY GLORY j " ' ODDFELLOWS WILL DEDICATE $30,000 EAST SIDE TEMPLE TOMORROW NIGHT, F IB D DR GUARDSMEN Civilians No Longer May Use Gorgeousness of Brass Buttons on Parade. MILITARY CODE CHANGED Political Graft Done Away With and Guard Mnst Be- Ready for Serv ice or Thrown Into the County Jail. Br g. a. w. Passage by the Legislature Thursday of the new military code was another itroke In the death-knell of that ancient American practice of entrusting military responsibilities to Inexperienced civilians. Long ago It was found that politicians weren't any icood in the Regular Army, and the practice of commissioning incom petent officers stopped. Now that idea is spreading to the National Guard of the country, which a a part of the first line of defense has arisen to a status of gen uine Importance during- the pact few years. Several states are already fol lowing codes similar to that Just adopted here. Notable examples are Wisconsin and New Tork. and the guard organiza tions of those states are known far and near for their high state of efficiency. The objection was raised in the House that the bill provided a life position for a Democrat. Adjutant-General W. E. Flnzer. This cry might have hurt the measure in its course through the legis lature, except that the code was pre sented by a delegation of officers from the Third Oregon Infantry, every one of them of the Republican persuasion. These officers insisted that General Finzers de tention was for the good of the service, as he had done efficient work for several years, following strictly up-to-date mili tary methods In all branches of military work. Democrat In, but Many Retired. "It puts a Democrat in office for life." was the persistent answer of opponents to the measure. The reply to this was brief, but ef fectlvec The measure puts several Dem ocrats out of office for life. One of the foremost provisions of the new code was that all officers of the State Military Board and of the General Staff must be appointed from officers of the active Guard service above the grade of first lieutenant. No officer may receive any such appointment. It Is provided, unless he lias seen six years' service as a com missioned officer In the Oregon National Guard. This means the retirement from the service at the explrauon of their present terms of the following: Colonel Cecil H. Bauer, Judge Advocate-General; Colonel John A. Waddle. Commissary General; Colonel Charles T. Chamberlain. Burgeon-General; Colonel T. L. Perkins, Alde-de-Camp; iJeutenant-Colonel Da vid L. Houston, Alde-de-Camp; Lieutenant-Colonel George W. Hasen, Alde-de-Camp. w General Staff. A new General Staff will be or ganized from the active officers of the Guard above the grade of first lieutenant who have seen at least six years' continuous service as officers. When the Governor goes to a military camp he will be provided with aides especially assigned from the active list. These officers will be relieved from their other duties only during- such time as thoy are In attendance upon the Governor. The spectacle often witnessed of civilians without the remotest Idea of military affairs parading about on state occasions In uniforms of colonels and lieutenant colonels will not be witnessed again In Oregon. A provision of the utmost Importance to the service, and one which will add greatly to the discipline of tho troops, la that providing a marshal to attend upon the military courts. This official, while receiving no remuneration. Is given full authority to enforce the collection of all fines for non-attendance on drill and other offenses. Sheriffs and other civil authorities have hesitated at arresting derelict guardsmen on order of military court, but the authority Is now fully vested by law in the marshal, who will have no hesitation In locking up In the County Jail any offender who declines to heed the findings of any military court. Strict EicmtnatloDi Provided. Strict examinations are provided for all officers. No man can get a commission hereafter unless he is faliy qualified. An examining board wlil give an examina tion largely similar to that required for advancement in the Regular Army, and the man who gets by that board will have earned his shoulder straps. The Adjutant-General Is given authority to order any officer up for re-examicatlon at any time. In the event the President should call cpon the Guard to support the National Government, either abroad or In the TTnlted States, all officers shall go to the front In their respective positions. Thus the men who have prepared for the emergency of war wlil go out with their commands and will not be replaced by political favorites, as was the case throughout the United States In 189S. In Its other details the code provides for reorganization along Regular Army lines, as required by the Dick bill, passed by Congress In 1005. This Is necessary to the drawing of the annual Federal allot ment for maintenance of the state troops. An order was Issued by the War De partment last Fall announcing that all organizations of the National Guard not on a Regular Army basis as regards or ganization would be cut off from Federal support January 21 last, but Congress was Induced to give two years of grace inas much as many Legislatures did not meet last year and necessary changes could hardly be made without revision of state codes. As the Oregon National Guard now stands It la subject to the call of either State or National Government, way be thrown Into service either In the United States or abroad, and any man who refuses to respond to the call to arms may be thrown Into the County Jail as a deserter. There is no longer any ques tion as to whether every Guardsman would go to the front or not If needed. That Is a condition of Ms enlistment, and he cannot back down, unless he should chance to prefer a cell at the County Jail to duty on the firing line. Largo Wheat Iiease Made. PENDLETON, Or.. Feb.

The Balmore had made a round voyage from Marseilles, at which port her cre was signed on February 17, 1807, to Syd ney and Newcastle, then across the Pad no to Taltal. Ballestar Islands and Callao. At al' of these ports some of the crew de serted or were discharged, and their places taken by substitutes. When the Balmore left Callao she was well found In every way, and no reason can be given for her mysterious disap pearance, although the general opinion Is that she must have collided with an Ice berg during a dark night and sank with all on board. Sfe was a steel barge of 1473 tons gross and 1338 tons net register and waa built In 1S92 at Dumbarton. She was under com mand of Captain T. K. Gronndwater, aged tt years. The Balmore was In Portland harbor a year ago last April and took out a cargo of lumber for the North Pacific Lumber company.

Rev. A. A. Winter, under whose pastorate the new edifice was projected, has now nearly served Scientific treatment My success has come as a reward of ability and honest, earnest and scientific application of thorough understanding. ORIGINAL METHODS I depend upon nobody's theories, but treat my patients in the light of my own knowledge and experience. There is not another physician or specialist anywhere who treats men's diseases as I treat them. This is a fact that should be duly considered by those who have re peatedly been disappointed in their efforts to obtain a cure. In no other branch of practice has medical sci ence so lagged and the forms of treatment now commonly employed among the profession are largely based upon theories that have been handed down through generations of doctors. An evidence of this is the prevalent inability to successfully cope with 'several of those ailments peculiar to men. MEN ONLY I have learned Nature 's laws apply ing to their cause and cure. Through this knowledge I have perfected forms of treatment wholly original and distinctive. Every requirement for a thorough cure is scientifically met, and as a result I am able to completely master cases commonly regarded as incurable. I especially invite those who have been long af flicted to consult me.

" WEAKNESS " I am confident that I have cured more cases of so-called "weakness than anv other physician. There may be doctors in the large Eastern cities who have treated more cases than I. but they cling to the oldand ineffective practice of dosing witn tonics. "Weakness" is merely. a symptom of local disorder that re quires local treatment. This is a truth that I have discovered, and that has been fully established by my success In effecting permanent cures. My method is original with myself and is employed by no other physician.

Consultation Is iree and confidential and you place yourself under no oblig atlon to me whathever by coming to talk with VARICOCELE Under my treatment the most aggravated cases of varicocele are cured In a few davs' time. There Is no pain, and It Is seldom necessary that the patient be de tained from his occupation. Nor mal circulation Is at once re stored throughout all the organs . and their natural processes of waste and repair are again es tablished. If you are afflicted with varicocele, consult me at once. Delay can but bring on ag gravated conditions and nervous complicat'ons that will impair the vital functions and Involve the general health. No other physician employs a like treatment, and so thorough Is my work that there need not be tho slightest fear of a relapse Into old conditions. , Dhnnt vour case. OFFICES OPEN ALL DAY FROM 9 A.
