slonershlps to be vacant, with a couple
more weeks available for other candi
dates to file. Tacoma's municipal cam
paign is assuming a livelier aspect.
Candidates are actively at work ad
dressing women's clubs, Improvement
clubs or any other organization that
will listen to them. Meanwhile, a re

with petitions being circulated all over
town.
The recallers plan to circulate their
petitions at the churches tomorrow,
and expect by Monday to have about
6000 signatures enough to force a re

The Mayoralty race has taken on a
new aspeot with the entrance into the
contest of Rev. u F. W. Stoever, pas

In whose place the present retiring
Mayor, W. W. Seymour, was Installed.
Mr. Stoever is waging an aggressive
campaign. He has been pastor of St.
John's Church for several vears and is
widely known, although Ire has at all
times steered clear of fads and civic
reform movements. He Is in the prime
of life, broad-minded and his entrance
Into the race upset the calculations of
more than one campaign manager. In
announcing himself. Key. Mr. Stoever
said: ,
Church Not to Influence.
"The people of Taooma, I believe,
"want a policy that Is sane, positive, ag
gressive, progressive, yet conservative,
broad and wholesome, efficient and
constructive. I believe in business
like, common-sense management of
public affairs and will refrain from
taking church affairs into that office."
This Is the first time Tacoma has
ever had a minister in the race for
city office. Besides Mr. Stoever and
Mr. Fawcett; there are in the field H.
P. Burdick, M. W. Greer, W. L. Kirby.
Homer T. Bone and E. O. Helnrich.

tration since January 1 was 11,940 men
and 6111 women. The dry interests are
claiming a large share of the credit
lor the heavy early enrollment.
A new feature In the municipal cam
paign is what is called the "New Move
ment League," which harks back to
American Protective Association days
and Is the outgrowth of the efforts of
e self-constituted "Committee of Ten."
The "Committee of Ten" has concealed
carefully its identity and the identity
of the members and officers of the
New Movement League." The "Com
mlttee of Ten" has declared it will soon
make Itself known and that the public
win men see tne "splendid men back
of the movement. Enough has leaked
out concerning the committee, however,
to indicate that at least one original
member has been ousted on account of
his personal and tnowl record.
pillar to the right of the platform,
aBked that Commissioner Logan repeat
the statement as to bis insulting a
representative of the city.
It was repeated.
"Did I?" asked Sergeant Rupert.
"Didn't you?" came back Commis
sioner Logan.
"I did not," was the quick reply.
"One of the Commissioners reports
that you did," said Mr. Logan. "I
was not that Commissioner, or I would
tell you specifically what you said."
Claris and Caldwell Silent.
Commissioners Clarke and Caldwell
sat silent.
"We will taken that Commissioner's
word for it,", said Commissioner Logan,
closing the incident.
Captain Riley spoke up.-"
"I am not in on that six months
business, ain I?" he asked.
"I am sorry to say. Captain Riley,
you are not," came the answer.
"The next case is that of Captain
Slover," announced Chairman Caldwell.
"Is Captain Slover here or is there
anyone here to speak for him? If not,
a motion will be entertained to- dismiss
his case."
No one answered for Slover.
Deputy City Attorney Thomas rose
and made the motion, saying that it
seemed that Captain Slover had "con
cluded to drop the case."
Lapsed Chances Reviewed.
Then Commissioner . Logan related
the chances that Captain Slover had
been given to present his case to the
commission, mentioning the Injunc
tion to test the power of the Mayor to
dismiss, its setting aside and the latest
move .the application for a writ of re
view thereon.
'I noticed a letter in The Oreeonian
this morning," said Commissioner Lo
gan, "in which Captain Slover ex
pressed a fear that In the event of a
trial the Commissioner who did not
hear the evidence would not be pres
Commissioner Logan went on to say
that he would be willing to have the
Slover case Indefinitely postponed,
have a permanent injunction against
the Commission from hearing the case,
or have a hearing by a committee ap
pointed by the Commission. He crit
icised Captain Slover for his news
paper utterance.
He said that there was one thing
apparent, and that was that Captain
Slover did not want a hearing before
the Commission.
Chairman Caldwell Interposed with
an explanation bf .the incidents leading
up to the dismissal. He said Captain
Slover had given him information valu
able in the investigation of police
irregularities, and that he had told the
Captain that the investigation would
oe no whitewash for anybody."
Conversations Are Repeated.
"Captain Slover said he had been
holding prayer-meetings at his house
and in his neighborhood twice a day,"
said Chairman Caldwell. "He said he
had been 16 years in the police depart
ment, and believed he had done noth
ing in that time to displease God.
"1 told him that there were two In
stances of what he had done that were
very questionable. . These were his
hiring police officers to stay near fallen
women and his connection with the
Daily News subscription list.
"He said he didn't want an investi
gation and that he expected to go into
the ministry the first of the year.
Commissioner Clark said that Inas
much as Captain Slover asked for an
investigation and Insisted on it, and
Inasmuch as the commission had post
poned his hearing at his solicitation,
only to have him fall to appear at the
postponed date, the commission would
be going out of Us way to appoint a
committee to hear the case or to show
Captain Slover any further considera
tion.
I am impressed with the apparent
fact that the Captain wants nothing so
little as an investigation," said Com
missioner Clark, "and if he wants, as
it appears. Us to place a crown of mar
tyrdom on his head, that end would
probably be more readily accomplished
by an- investigation. I therefore move
that his dismissal be sustained.
The motion was carried.
The case of Frank S. Morrison, dis
missed from the tire department, where
he was a hoseman, on a charge of
"falsifying the records," was heard, and
Mayor Albee's action in dismissing
Morrison was sustained.

probrloug language In, the corridor of
the City Hall following his trial. The
charges against him are sustained.
"The case of Patrolman Chrlstoffer
pon is much the same, went on the
Commissioner, without a pause. "On
the evidence submitted and on his own
admission, gambling occurred at his
place and on his solicitation. The
charges against him are sustained.
"As to the others tried at the same
time, and Patrolman Frey, the charges
are sustained, he said. "But the Com
mission feels that the discharge of an
officer in classified civil service works
an attainder and militates against his
ever again attaining a civil service
position, whether city or Government.1
The Commissioner explained in de
tail the effect of the ruling, saying
that it did not mean that the men
would be put back in the department
at trie end or the six months, but mere
ly on the eligible list.
Punishment Held Enough.
"We feel as to these men that they
nave oeen punished enough as It is, and
we therefore announce their suspension
without pay for a period of six months
from the date of their discharge. They
will be reinstated on the civil service
list according to the rank given them
by their examinations."
Wilson T. Hume, attorney for Patrol
man Frey, said that he did not get the
exact meaning of Commissioner Logan's
Ilnal words.
"Does it mean that Mr. Frey Is to get
no pay from the time of his di
charge?" he asked.
"Yes." was the answer.
Then, In reply to a further question
Commissioner Logan said that the
Commission s decision was based on
Patrolman Frey's petition.
Men Subject to Call.
"They will then be subject to a call
for duty," he said. "We would want
them now if they were available.
Kan Powers, attorney for Sergeant
Rupert, asked how the ruling would
aflect the standing cf sergeants.
"They go back on the list without
any standing at all, except what they
had' on their examination standings
when they entered the service," said
Commissioner Logan.

Plea tor More Patriotism Made at
Banquet by H. B. Miller General
Anderson Says Canal Means Na
tion Must Always Be Ready.
At its anual meeting in the rooms
of the University Club yesterday, the
Oregon Society of the Sons of the
American Revolution decided to Invite
and urge the Congress of the National
society to hold Its 1915 convention In
Portland. A delegation of at least
five members will probably attend the
annual meeting In Syracuse. N. Y- in
May, 191, to declare Portland's claim.
Already $2300 has been subscribed to
entertain the proposed Portland meeting.
'The National :ona-rnna nt fh Snm
of the American Revolution has never
met on the Pacific Coast," declared
Wallace McCamant, president of the
Oregon society, last night. "In fact,
it is the only Important National bodv
that has not at some time held a
convention west of the Rocky Moun
tains. However, In view of the fact
that a great exposition will be on the
Coast In 1915, I believe we will be
able to bring the 1915 meeting of our
order to Portland. The policy ot the
congress is against holding a con
vention In an exposition city itself."
Officers Are Re-elected.
The following officers of the Oregon
Society- were re-elected yesterday:
President. Wallace McCamant; vice
president. D. W. Wakefield; secretary,
B. A. Thaxter; treasurer, A. A. Linds
ley, and registrar, W. H. Chaplnl These
were chosen as a board of managers:
P. P. Dabney, W. G. Oberteuffer, J. H.
Rogers and J. F. Ewing. The board
of managers is empowered to choose
from the local society four delegates-at-large,
to serve with the society
president as representatives of the so
ciety at the Syracuse congress, where
Portland will announce Its bid for the
1915 convention.
The society yesterday instructed Its
secretary to urge the owners of public
and business buildings all over the
state to display the American flag on
all patriotic holidays. Committees were
also appointed to look after the award
of prises for meritorious essays on his
torical subjects. An appropriation
was made to supply additional books
on patriotic subjects for the traveling
library.
A banquet held in the Tin!
Club last night was addressed by Gen- 1
erai x nomas M Anderson on the "Mon
roe Doctrine," by Judge William D.
Fenton on "The South in the Revolu
tion" and by H. B. Miller on "Modern
Patriotism."
Border Problem Touched. -
wenerai Anderson, who was the
founder of the Oregon Society of the
Sons of the Revolution, declared that
the United States would have to make
Itself a world power of the front rank
If it is to keep the Panama. Canal open.
He served three years on the Mexican
border and said he had found the Mex
icans to be a thoroughly unreliable
people.
Judge Fenton. in a echolnrlv a.
dress, recalled tXhe stirring scenes of
me revolutionary War," laying partic
ular emphasis upon the share of eIaft
won by the South and spectacular
ovuutmu Btaiesmen.
H. B. Miller utilized interesting rem
iniscences of his 12 years in the diplo
matic service in his speech on "Mod
ern Patriotism." He contra r)i -v.
characteristics of the Chinese and the
Japanese peoples.
More Patriotism Urged.
"Our greatest need tnriav is a i-
vlval of patriotism, a full, inspiring
loyalty to our Government above
everything else," said , Mr. Miller. "I
am not pessimistic but rather hopeful
for better conditions to come. And I
am frank to predict that ihe newly
enfranchised weiten will have a bol
stering influence In this respect.
Women sre constitutionally so differ
ent from men. It is their instinct and
their foremost privilege to serve others
and that is the brand of spirit that
must be engendered in our public mind.
A fuller measure of patriotism is need-
ea in this country.

When you order a suit of clothes,
you don't select the cheapest. Price
Is not your' sole standard, but qual
ity, looks, style, wearability, for these
you are glad to pay a little higher
price, even though you know that
cheaper can be bought. The same
thing Is true or should be in con
tracting your dental work. Don't de
cide the tooth question on price, but
consider carefully what you get for
that price. Our Alveolar teeth are
worth more because of the EXTRA
VALUE they give. EXTRA VALUE
IN SERVICE. EXTRA VALUE IN
LOOKS. EXTRA VALUE IN SATIS
FACTION. They are teeth you will
be proud of anywhere. So why not
purchasenow the teeth you are sure
to want later?
Alveolar Teeth, Where Brldgework la
Impossible.
If only your front teeth are left,
say three or four or more, we can
replace all of those that have been
lost on both sides clear back with
perfect Alveolar teeth, whilst bridge,
work would be impossible even if you
had eight or ten front teeth to tie to.
If you have only two back teeth on
each side, say molars, we can supply
all the front teeth that are missing
with beautiful, serviceable, lifelike
Alveolar teeth. This could not pos
sibly be done by the bridge rout.
And where bridgework is possible
there Is no comparison between thp.
two. A very large percentage of oar
work Is taking out bridgework put
In by supposedly high - class dentists,
and replacing it with the beautiful and
artistic Alveolar Teeth. And, unlike
bridgework in another respect, it is
practically painless. No boring or cut
ting into the gums, nothing to be
dreaded. Now, then, prices being equal,
which would you choose?
Curing Pyorrhea (loose teeth), a dis
ease Btven up by most dentists as in
curable, is another of our soecialties.
It's a boastful statement to make, but
we can do anything that Is possible in
dentistry, and what we do is always of
the very highest class. Our booklets.
Alveolar Dentistry, are free. Write for
one if you cannot call. We have sam
ples of our work to show at all times.

HOW TO PREVENT
ACID STOMACHS AND
FOOD FERMENTATION
By a Stomach Specialist.
As a specialist who has spent many
years in the study and treatment of stom
ach troubles, I have been forced to the
conclusion that most people who complain
of stomach trouble possess stomachs that
are absolutely healthy and normal. The
real trouble, that which causes all the pain
and difficulty. Is acid in the stomach,
usually due to, or aggravated by. food fer
mentation. Add irritates the delicate Uumg
of the stomach and food fermentation
causes wind which distends the stomach
abnormally, causing that full bloated feel
ing Thus both acid and fermentation in
terfere with and retard the process ot diges
tion. The stomach Is usually healthy and
normal, but irritated almost past endur
ance by these foreign elements acid and
wind. In all such cases and they com
prise over hO per cent of all ntoniach dif
ficulties the first and only step necessary
is to neutralize the acid and stop the fer
mentation by taking in a little warm or
cold water immediately after eating, from
one to two teaspoonf uls of blsurated mag
nesia, which is doubtless the best and only
really effective antacid and food correc
tive known. The aold will be neutralized
and the fermentation stopped almost in
stantly, and your stomach wtu at ence
proceed to digest the food in a healthy,
normal manner. Be sure to ask your chemist
for the Msnrated majrrtesia. as I hare found
other forms utterly leaking in its peculiarly
valuable properties, F. J, G, Adv
