13 THE SUNDAY OKEOOMA.N, FOKTLAXD, DECEMBER 8, I91g. PEN IS STRICKEN FROM SALARY ROLL Oregon Single Tax Leader to Get No More Pay Because He Is Candidate. TALK MADE AT HARVARD Oregon City Man Gives His Opinions on Initiative and Referendum and Tells of Conditions in This State. BOSTON. Dec 2. (Special Corre spondence.) Joseph Fels Is weary of the role of financial angel In the cam paign for single tax. and at the final meeting of the National conference yes terday at the Twentieth Century Club, he announced that unless others con tributed more generously next year to the single tax fund, he might be counted out of the list of contributors. However, he said he was confident that the fund would grow and that even his death would not end the work. During Sunday the five members of the commission discussed the situation among themselves. No report of their deliberations was made to the confer ence. Chairman Kiefer, of Cincinnati, was asked for an outline of the meet ing, but said that there was nothing to report, and the only matter of con sequence mentioned by members of the commission was the dropping out of Mr. U'Ren, of Oregon, as a paid mem ber, because of his candidacy for Gov ernor of Oregon. - In talking over the situation in Ore gon with Mr. U'Ren, It was virtually decided that the clause exempting (250 of land value in Mr. ITRen's new meas ure be eliminated when that measure again is presented to the voters of Oregon. U'Ren Makm AddreM. Mr. U'Ren, by invitation, today ad dressed the Economic Club, of Boston, and a number of Harvard undergradu ates at. Cambridge. Mr. U'Ren took for his subject the "Declaration of . Independence." "We hold these truths self-evident," he said, "but sometimes there is a difference in interpretation. I interpret them as giving every man equal opportunity to use the National resources of the coun try and to share in the value of them with no special privilege allowed. "As to the methods by which this may be attained: We are said to have a representative government, but we know that we haven't. The people are not fairly represented In the Legisla tures by spokesmen of their own choos ing. It is one party or the other that monopolizes, as in Oregon, for instance, where out of 90 men in the Legislature 80 or more are Republicans that is not representative government. And that is why people are turning to the initiative and referendum." View Are Glveu. He discussed the Initiative and refer endum idea and declared his belief that where conditions are good' and the ex ecutive officials have, due appreciation of their responsibility, it would be found that the Initiative and referen dum would seldom be used. "I think," he said, "that where a large number of measures appear on the ballot it is both a, demonstration of the Interest of the people in getting goad government and of the inefficiency and incompe-1 tence of their representatives."

WALLA WALLA VOTES SOON Citizens to Be Called to Decide Im portant Questions in 1913. WALLA WALLA, Wash.. Dec. 7. (Special.) Citixens of Walla Walla will be called upon this coming year to decide two things the voting of bonds for the construction of a reser voir for the city water supply and the voting of bonds to take up the out standing warrants. No time has been set for the holding of these elections, as the Commissioners say they want to give the people a chance to register. The city has $216,000 in warrants out standing, and the sum is increasing every month, while it will be impos sible to redeem any of them before March 10, at which date the first pay ment from the taxes will be available. Taxes are not due till March 1, and , the Commissioners think there wilj be little ready by March 10. By April 10. however, ihpy expect to be able to re deem considerable of the paper. The city's handicap comes because of changing the fiscal year to corre spond with the calendar year.

Cham bers and Martin Sherrard. Vocal selec tions by a number of the Elks were in cluded in the programme.

Several days preceding the entertain ment the Elks published an eight page newspaper in which they printed local hits about the members and well known persons. ' The Elks' lodge, of Marshfield, has been . organized several years and now has a large membership. Each year an entertainment is given for the benefit of the charity fund, but this year's production was much more elaborate than ever before attempted. Artificia Teeth Specialist on Plate Work. This one thing I do. Owing to the rapid strides that have been made in the dental profession in the last few years it has become abso lutely necessary to separate the work into its various and well-defined branches. The prominent men in the dental profession have realized for some time that it was an utter impossibility for any one person to become proficient in all of the various branches. Ever since dentistry has been a rec ognized profession there has been a great' tendency among the dentists to slight plate work, giving up all of their time and study to methods tend ing to preserve the natural teeth. The reason for this is obvious, as the work is much easier, requires less artistic and mechanical, ability and is much more remunerative. TTnfortunatelv. only about one out of every one hundred plates con structed by the general practitioner in dentistry gives complete satisfaction to the natient. Hundreds of people are wearing plates in this country to day, struggling along with the belier that they have the best to be obtained, when as a matter of fact, all of their troubles can be laid directly to the lack of skill in this branch of the gen eral practitioner. The anatomical method is used in making all my plates, and by using this new mechanical appliance to get the correct positions of the upper and lower jaws, restoring the natural ex pression to the face, it gives pleasing results. It is difficult to compare these re sults with those from plate work done in a haphazard manner, beeause there is no comparison in the value of the service rendered to the patient. In the ordinary, form of plate work any real crushing or chewing ability which the patient may have is largely a matter of accident. If unable to give complete satisfac tion after a reasonable trial I will gladly refund the price paid. Artificial teeth repaired. Send for free booklet on artificial teeth, "This One Thing I Do." DR. KELSEY, D. 1V1. D. 206 Globe Bldg., 7th and Washington Streets, Portland, Oregon, wife knows a chuck steak from a sir loin, but many of them do not know just how to cut up the carcass of a meat animal properly," and the farmer and his wife were taught this art by the ctitlery demonstrations, for which ex perts from one of the big Portland packing houses were brought to the college. But to the city housewife and the merchant or clerk who do mar keting, this two days' study' was a rev elation. It Is a fact that city butchers have been known to dispose of a quarter of beef on the "dime's worth" plan and always have any cut called for as long as there is a pound remaining on the block. This is a comparatively easy matter when the purchaser's knowl edge of meats goes no further-than a distinction between suet and soup bones and where the marketing Is done by telephone or at the kitchen door, the butcher's boy acting as the medium. Because of this woeful lack of knowl edge concerning meat animals and meat cuts, this new feature of meat demon stration was added by the college au thorities to the work of Farmers' week. The lectures and demonstrations en able the Farmers' week students to follow the meat animals from the range to the retail shop.
