The ballot will hare ir.sny Initiative
questions of much Importance, as a good
many hare already been filed and more
are said to be In course of preparation.
One of the chief ones la that providing
for a. public service commission, the mem
bers of which would have power to regu
late all public service companies such
as the streetcsr systems, telephone end
telegraph snd stmllsr corporations. This
emanates from the Seventh Ward Im

Sellwood cltlsena In particular are re
sponsible for a proposed bill to change
the boundaries of the various wards, to

The electors will decide whether two
ordinances, denying the right to carry
banners- or other advertising matter on
the streets and prohibiting the boycotting
by pickets or other syMenis shall stand.
The referendum has been applied to each
Iy the labor unions, who fought both
ordinances In the Council on the ground
that they are Inimical to labor union pro

GOVERNOR WEST PUZZLED
Naval Militia Officer- Hank Proves
Enigma.
SALEM. Or. March II. (Special.
(governor West is confronted with the
rather puzzling problem of whether the
present officers of the Oregon Naval
Militia are entitled to their rank as
officers and whether the legislature
had the power to ssy that the officers
of the old Oregon Naval Reserve shouH
f the officers of the Oregon Naval
Militia, created by the Legislative acL
Cndrr Article X of the constitution
provision Is made for the appointment
vf officers of the stsff and election of
officers, that provision applying to the
National Guard. Under the law the
appointment and election of officers of
the Naval Militia shall be governed In
the same manner as the appointment
and election of officers of tbe National
Guard.
Under the art creating the Oregon
Naval Militia the Legislature practi
cally appoints the officers for tha
aval Reserve. Whether this could be
done authoritatively by the Legtslstlve
body Is a question that In the mind of
the Governor is debatable and one
which ha Intends to investigate a soon
ss possible.
IMPLEMENT PARADE, PLAN
East Side Business Man Saja Tea
tare Would Be Striking One.
C. A. Bigelow. member of the Rose
Festival Committee from the East Side
business Men Club. Is at work on toe
plan to have an .Implement parade Mn
the course of the festival this year.
"I think that a well-conducted Im
plement parade on Grand avenue." ssid
Mr. Bigelow.' "would be one of the im
portant features of the Rose Festival.
There are St large Implement concerns
In the warehouse district on the East
Side. If each entered 10 vehlclea and
Implements. It would make a remark
able display. I would have every kind
of Implement represented. Including
traction engines, threshing machines
and the like. The cost would be small
for such a parade, while It would be
a big advertisement for the city. Wa
hare the fourth largest Implement ren
ter on the Cosst here In Portland.
After the parade the firms could keep
open house and Invite the public to
Inspect their stocks. -. There would be
auto trucks, automobiles and traction
engines.- We shsll take It up with tha
Implement people at once.
George L. Hutchln. manager of the
Rose FestlvaJ. said that the Rose Fes
tival Association would not be respon
sible for such a parade, but that if the
Ruslnesa Men's Club would manage It
the affair would be advertised, "together
with other features of the festival.

developed among the fraternal organ

Adjustment of tha Broadway bridge
approaches br the city with the O.-W.
It. N. Company and Northern Pacific
Terminal Company last Friday has cre
ated great enthusiasm throughout the
city relative to this large project, and
it Is believed In official circles,. that
the bonds for this purpose will be sold
much more readily as a result.-
Mayor Simon' and City-Auditor. Bar
bur held a conference' yesterday morn
ing, at which they discussed the situ
ation and decided to , send to Farson.
Son. Co. all of the farts In connection
with the case to date. . including the
settlement of the two approaches. Ac
cordingly the telegram was sent yes
terday with a request that the com
pany, which. Is considering' legality of
the issue of 1500.000 bonds, bid for by
it. make Immediate reply 'whether it
Intends to accept the bonds.
Mayor Simon and all of the city offi
cials concerned express great - satis
faction over the adjustment of the
rights of way -for the east and west
approaches to the bridge. They declaro
that this leaves only the securing of
funds to build the bridge.- snd believe
that this feature -will be worked out
soon. .
1 believe -the city mede an excellent
adjustment of the approach, propo
sitions." said the Mayor yesterday.. "I
am now very anxious-to. get the cash
from the bonds. When this Is st hand,
construction will be. pushed Just as
rapidly as possible."
"I believe the Broadway bridge Is
now in an excellent position, actually
to be built." declared Councilman Menc-fee.-
-I think the city has secured a
first-class adjustment of the approach
problem, and I also believe that this
will have a wholesome effect upon the
ssle of the bonds. It certainly should
have, and I trust thst we shall now be
able to sell tbem without much more
difficulty."
Councilman Lombard, who waa chair
man of the sub-committee of the street
committee, which arranged the adjust
ment with the offlclsls of the rallroadj
companies, regaras ine seiuemeni aa
very satisfactory to the city. He says
that the city got all it needs for actual
construction of the span, with all pros
pect of litigation to obstruct eliminated,
ao far as the railroad companleeare
concerned.
The railroad companies. through
their representatives, agreed to give,
the rights of way for the bridge and to
waive all such litigation aa -might ob

WOODLAND. Wash, March la. (Spe

the adjacent district In Clark County
that will be benefited by the bridge
across the Lewis River, allowed by the

Trades Instruction "Arouses
Great Interest. '
ATTENDANCE ON INCREASE
Ir. Charles Friedel, Head of Port
land Trades .St-hool, . S- That,
in Pact Two Years Wonderful
Progress Has Wt-en Made.
Dr. Charles Friedel. principal of the
Portland School of Trades, believes
that before long; the local school will
rank with the foremost In the country.
He said as much yesterday in speakinK
of the progress made by the school In
the last two years.
In referring to a recent Issue of the
Sunday Oreitonlan, which contained a
report of the relative renlstratlon of
the pupils of the various schools of the
city on Februsry 1. for the years 1911
and 110. he said:
In this report the registration for the
School of Trades Is given -correctly as la
bors, this year, as asalnst 111 boys last
year, an 4 slrls this year, with no
for last year since tha slrl's' side or the
Trade School, althoush started last 'ST
waa not fully .organised aa a part of the
Hovs" and Girls- 8-hool of Trades until this
last September. This increase In registra
tion, and corresponding Increase In attend
ance at the School ef Trades, while perfectly
correct so far aa figures are able to express
It. nevertheless falls to represent, at all ade
quately, the real growth of the school and
the attendant Increasing Interest In the com
munity In trades school worn. Knr this
reason, and for the additional reason, that
the school baa become a focus of consider
able watchful attention, hostile, possibly, ss
you a more detaled and compete statement
aa to the progress the school has made dur
ing the present year.
Karollmeat Is 2U.
The present" total enrollment-Is 200 bos
snd girls. This does not represent the
number of students now actually belonging
to the school. The acroal number belonging
Is oi.1t 144 boys and 40 girls. The utmost
capacity -of the rooms at our disposal, wltn
proper -regard for the necessary conditions
for good work, .does not exceed 15o boys
and J girls. , " '
In at least three of the departments, for
two months, we have had to turn back ap
plicants for registration'. .In one week si
many as a dosen boys and girls had to be
denied m ranee, or were told to walr a
while and try again. . During the past month
there have been many applicants who were
denied entrance Jo the departments of elec
trical construction and machine shop prac
tice. A few boys showed rare persistence,
and returned every three or four days to
Inquire If someone had .dropped out. . and
were finally rewarded by being permitted to
enter. Kather than fall to enter the school.
If the department which they desired to
enter could not -take any more, some, ap
plicants, girls ss well ss hoys, were willing
to take up work In other departments In
order to be on hand to slip Into, the first
opening that occurred. ' ' '
Perhaps the most striking evidence of tbe
Increasing Interest In the Trades Srhnol
work is the fact that, whereas there were
only about II or II new students during the
first five weeks of the second semester of
last year, this year, t her are 6" new stu
dents ef which 4a are boys and IS gli-ls.
Four of these come over from Lincoln -High
school to take drawing In the afternoon.
Shop Work Interests..
Interest In shop work on the part of the
students has always been at fever heat from
the very first. Students are generally per
mitted In the shops one-half day at a time,
only. The other half day Is devoted to
academic work and drawing. There Is no
punishment that Is dreaded hslf ao much
as to be deprived of the privilege to go to
shop practice at the-regular periods. -While
Interest In academic work was Isgglng-at
first. It haa steadily Improved and la rapidly
becoming strong and healthy. Fortunately
tha capacity of the school of Trades In this
respect Is like that of most other schools,
hard to overtax. So strong, Indeed, haa In
terest In tbe peculiar work of trade schools
grown In the City of Portland and sur
rounding country that If sufficient room can
be provided and no unlooked-for evil over
takea us there I certain to be an attend
ance of at least 4S0 boys and girls thts next
'"'though the -Portland" School -of Trades
Is the youngest of the small group of such
schools now In the United States. . : UV has
already outstripped several of the others In
the number of Its students, even though
these are located In larger centers of popu
lation, such aa the School of Trades In
Philadelphia, and the Boys" School of Trades
In Milwaukee, and I fully believe this school
has. eood chance to rank as one of the
tore most in that respect In tbe very near
future. .
The night school, as well as the - day
School In this city, hss enjoyed . a -very
marked growth. I do not happen ,to have
the figures for last year at hand and .can
therefore report on this year only.. The ag
gregate registration for the term ust closed
Is J.-.T. of which MS were boys and men. and
a I wera girls snd women. . The largest at
tendance was on the evening of November T.
when rthare was a. total attendance of 119.
of -which eS were boys and. 41-girls. . This

was really more than we could set to work,
and quite a number had to stand about and
watch the others. While the night work
has been very well attended, still there was
a constant changing, some dropping out and
new ones coming In from week to week,
which made It especlaly burdensome on the
Instructors, because. Instead of classwork.
such aa Is carried on In the day school, only
individual work, could be attempted.
When on last Monday night, after the
close of the previous Friday evening.- the
students returned to take away their draw
ing Instruments, tools, overalls, etc.. there
was a general expression of sincere regret
that the school had-to be closed, and I dare
say the feeling was general which was ex
pressed to me personally by one young man
on leaving. ' "Thank, you. Doctor, for what
you did for me.

Alveolar Dentistry
) . . THE HALLMARK OF QUALITY
Emancipates People From
' Common sense is the ability to de
tect values o know a big thing from
a little one. I'd rather possess com
mon sense than have six degrees from
Trinity College. Oxford.
"Den-fists are -continually- cautioning
the.publlu to save their J5tn
not to have them extracted. But they
refer eolelv to decaying teeth, which
they wish to have the opportunity of
filling or crowning. Of course, there
Is little else - to do ; with a decayed
tooth but to fill It. but these same
dentists who implore you to save your
teeth will pull good teeth without a
tremor simply because they are loose
from a disease. We wish to r,,tTt"
that there i no need of extracting
or losing any tooth simply because it
Is loose. We have a device and a rem
edy bv which we can fasten loose teeth
and make them forever solid. This Is
a part of the system we have origi-
"'n'w, with regard to diseases of the
gurres. in which dentists are so patheti
cally helpless. In the course of the fif
teen years we spent developing our
alveolar svstem of dentistry, we also
found something that will stop pus
forming In the gums: that will prevent
the gums from receding and thus either
protruding the teeth or J"'" th"m
out altogether. We can give the guma
practically new life, making them
ruddy and healthy and natural. We
have never known this system to fail
'n any diseased condition of the gums.
We mean, this unequivocally.
As to the third improvement In den
tistry outlined In our talks, we said
that the majority of people were wear
ing plates of false teeth when It could
have been avoided. For example, a per
son has three or four teeth on the up
per Jaw and, let tie) say. a half dozen
on the lower jaw. Perhaps these re
maining teeth are sol'd and perhaps
they are not. . The patient complains
that he can no longer masticate hi
food and that he Is otherwise having
conatant trouble. The dentist prompt
ly suggests extraction, and a plate of
false teeth to follow. Have you ever
stopped to realise what this means to
the poor victim? . A tooth once extract
ed Is gone forever.. All the teeth once
extracted can never be restored. The
unfortunate one must wear a plate of
false teeth the rest of his -or her life.
Think of that!
By our alveolar method, if there had
been two or more teeth on either jaw,
whether solid, sound or loose, makes
no difference, we could have prevented
the -wearing of a plate of false teeth.
All we require ts two or more teeth on
either Jaw. With' these to start with
we can give you back your 28 teeth,
and I wlfi defy-any one, dentist or lay
man, to tell the substitutes from the
original ones. . "Each tooth" will be as
solid and useful as any tooth In any
human being's mouth. In this way we
have saved many a one - the discom
fort 'of wearing a plate of false teeth,
and we are prepared to save you a
similar discomfort if you are In that
condition. f
Any dentist who would pull good
teeth to make room for a plate is a
criminal pure and simple. Most every
dentist-In Itris city knows positively
that we cure 4 ever jr case of pyorrhea

Being Plate or Bridge Victims
that Is curable or that we diagnose as
curable. Manv of them will tell you
franklv that they, cannot cure It and
without hesitation refer you to the
Alveolar Dental Company, knowing
that j-ou are going . to get a square
deal from us.
Our Alveolar teeth are the most
beautiful and natural-looking teeth
Imaginable. They cannot be told from
nature's product. We can Imitate, na
ture so nearly that we defy any one,
dentists or laymen, to tell them from
the most perfect natural teeth. Each
tooth is set in Its own socket, sep
arate and distinct, spaced like natural
teeth -where beet to do so (use your
toothpick or brush same as with nat
ural teeth), lapped in other places. The
cusps occlude with the opposing teeth,
and In some ca-ses we put them in
crooked purposely to match and oc
clude with your other natural teeth.
The work Is so remarkable and so per
fect that we cannot do It Justice by a
written description, nor could you be
lieve It. It sounds too good to be
true, but we can show you eamples,
counterparts of the work: let you see
for vourself what It is. There are 12
Alveolar Dental Company offices in the
West. About 80.000 people In the United
States are wearing Alveolar teeth.
About 60. 000 were supplied by the Al
veolar Dental Company. About 2000
people of this city and state were
equipped In this office; 99 per cent of
these, if not all. w'll tell you that they
are delighted, and that It's the best in
vestment they ever made, if asked. We
will gladly refer you to as many as
you care to see.
Alveolar Teeth, Where Brldgework Is
Impossible.
If only your front teeth are left, say
three or four or more, we can replace
all those that have been lost on both
sides clear back with perfect Alveolar
teeth, whilst brldgework would be im
possible, even if you had eight or ten
front teeth to tie to. If you have only
two back teeth on each side, say, mo
lars, we can supply all the front teeth
that are missing with beautiful, serv
iceable, lifelike Alveolar teeth. This
could not possibly be done by the
bridge route. And where brldgework
is possible, there Is no comparison
between the two. A very large per
centage of our work Is taking out
brldgework put In by supposedly high
class dentists and replacing It with
the beautiful and artistic- Alveolar
Teeth. And. unlike brldgework In an
other respect, it Is practically painless.
No boring or cutting into the gums,
nothing to be dreaded. Now, then,
prices being equal, which would you
choose?
Caring Pyorrhea (loose teeth), a dis
ease given up by other dentists as in
curable, ts another of our specialties.
We cure it absolutely. It's a boastful
statement to make, but we can do any
thing that is possible in dentistry, and
what we do is always of the very
highest slass. Our booklets Alveolar
Dentistry, are free. Write for One if
you cannot call. We have samples of
our work to show at all times.
