INSPECTORS UNDER FIRE Board Complains About Some City Appointments. of In an effort to weed out Inspectors not under, civil service - Jurisdiction in City Commissioner Dieck's depart ment. George W. Caldwell, president of the Municipal Civil Service Board, has sent a letter to Mr. Dieck In forming him that the temporary ap pointees must be dropped and their places filled with persons duly quali fied under civil service rules. It is said there are employes in Mr. Dieck's department who have been ap pointed over the heads of persons who have taken civil service examinations and are on the waiting lists. Mr. Cald well's letter to Mr. Dieck reads as fol lows: "It has come to our attention that for several months there have been working under temporary appointment several persons with the title of in spector. From the present informa tion it is the judgment of the board that the work being done by these temporary appointees is such that It is placed within the scope of the exami nation for persons who now comprise the eligible list of senior inspectors. This being the situation as it appears to us. we think that appointments should be made from the eligible list and the temporary appointees should be discontinued. "Matters of this character and other matters coming before the board seem to furnish ground for considerable complaint among those who have taken examination for various kinds of mu nicipal offices, and it seems to us that we should all strive to comply as nearly as possible with civil service regula tions to the end that there should be no just basis for complaint." OUTSIDE SENATORS JOIN TWO HOLDOVERS WILL HELP FRAME ECONOMY LAWS. TO Plan of Advance Study of Problems la Declared "Best Yet" by Edward Kiddle and C. L. Hawley. Two State Senators from other coun ties have already accepted the invita tion of Multnomah holdover Senators to co-operate in preparing an intelli gent programme for reducing taxes, eliminating useless state commissions and consolidating others in the inter est of greater efficiency, before the next Legislature meets. Edward E. Kiddle, holdover Senator from Union and Wallowa counties, and C. L. Hawley, candidate for re-election as State Senator from Benton and Polk counties, were in Portland yesterday and said that they would co-operate to the fullest extent with the Mult nomah Senators. They thought the plan of studying out the problem be forehand, so that prompt action, based on thorough knowledge of the subject. can be taken by the Legislature, as one of the best to be undertaken In many a day. Senator Kiddle proposed to make a special study of the tSate Sanitary In spection Board and of the appropria tion for the destruction of wild ani mals, with both of which he is famil iar, in co-operation with the work to be done by the Multnomah Senators. Senator Hawley, who was a member of the education committee of the last Senate, will study the appropriations to be made for educational purposes. The Multnomah Senators will hold a meeting with members of the State Railroad Commission in Portland some time next week. At this meeting one important subject for discussion will be the suggested transfer of the pow ers and duties of the State Tax Com mission to the Railroad Commission. OREGON POLITICAL GOSSIP Election Cards and Candidates Placards Flooding City and Country Districts W. L. Robb Urges Republicans to Support Ralph E. Wil liams for National Committeeman Charles A. Johns Talks to Alberta Voters News of the Candidates. ELECTION card time, certain sign of Spring and. primaries, is again on the Job. Imagine what 252 earnest candidates for state and 41 for county nominations can do in the way of election"-card circulating when they set their minds to It, and you gain an idea, Just an Idea of the heft of cards and other campaign litera ture descended upon this city. Most of the candidates haven't more than tapped tho first layers of their card supply, at that. Candidates' placards, tacked on old barns and fences all over the city and through the country districts, are an other sign that tne primary election campaign is In full swing. Some of the former circulators of nominating petitions are turning a few dollars by undertaking to post these placards throughout the county. Speaking of the placards brings to mind the plight of one candidate in Portland four or five years ago. He was a good-looking candidate, and his friends advised him to go strong on placards containing a large photo graph of himself. He ordered 20CO or 3000. He was looking about for somebody to post them up, when along came an honest-appearing fellow who offered, for a consideration, to see that they were "circulated." A bargain was struck. The candidate insisted only that, as the time was short, they must be circulated quickly. He was unwise enough to make an advance payment. That night the man who was to do the "circulating" took all the placards down to the terminal grounds and tacked them on the sides of freight cars. Not a car escaped. The placards were "circulated" all Tight. In the natural n.ovement of traffic thi can didate got some fine advertising in Spokane, Seattle. Tacoma, San Fran cisco and Chicago within the next few weeks. In a formal statement, W. L. Robb, who withdrew as a candidate for Re publican National committeeman from Oregon several days ago, has explained his reasons for so doing. Mr. Robb says: V I take this means of explaining to my friends and Republican voters of Oregon why, after filing my declara tion to be a candidate for the nomina tion of National committeeman, I withdrew, or rather, declined to com plete my filing. When I filed I was sincere in my desire to secure the nomination,' as I thought it would be a contest between Republicans, but when I learned that Charles W. Ackerson, who, on January 8 registered as a member of the Pro gressive party, and on March 14 changed his registration to Kepubli can, had filed his declaration for the nomination for National committee man. I deemed it my duty as a loyal Republican to withdraw my filing in favor of a man whose Republicanism cannot be questioned, so I declined to complete my filing In order that Ralph E. Williams, the present Republican national committeeman, might have a clear field. Mr. Ackerson during the last year has been a most persistent vllifier of the Republican party, and his change of faith as late as March 14 and immediate filing of his candi dacy for Republican National commit teeman shows conclusively that he and nis co-woraers want tnis olllce to lur ther vilify and disrupt the Republican party. "I sincerely hope that' all good Re publicans in Oregon will look into this matter and support Ralph E. Williams, as there is no doubt of his Republi canism. - Rainier, Clatskanie,.

"MILEAGE" IS CAST OUT House Provides Actual Expense Only for Members. WASHINGTON, April 18. The House struck the time-honored 'mileage ' al lowances for Congressmen out of the legislative appropriation bill today and provided for actual expenses of mem- bers to and from Washington. The Senate has yet to agree to the proposal. All the Representatives from the Northwest except Bryan of Washington and French of Idaho voted in favor of continuing payment at the rate of 20 cents a mile, and both Bryan and French supported 20-cent mileage until they were called on to go on record to day. If the Senate adopts the new basis of mileage, members and Senators will receive only the actual cost of transpor tation from their homes to Washington and return, which will materially cut the allowance of the Pacific Coast members. Representative Laff erty will lose more heavily than . any other member, for under the new basis he will secure only the price of a round-trip ticket for one person, there being no dependent mem bers of his family.

Charles A. Johns, candidate for the Republican nomination for Governor, addressed voters of the Alberta dis trict Friday night in Baker Hall. Al berta street, near East Seventeenth. He centered his remarks on high taxes and an economical administration of the state government. "With all due respect to recent Leg islatures," said Mr. Johns, "the fact remains that the total expenses of the state for the years 1913-14 are more than three times what it cost to run the state in 1905-06. The Leglsla lure of 1905-06 appropriated $2,012, 4.72. wmie our last Legislature ap propriated the enormous sum of $6, 173,475.17. Here is an increase of more tnan $4,000,000, or more than 200 per cent in eight years, for the- cost of maintaining the government - of this state. "I want to tell yon people that any business man or corporation that would conduct its own affairs in ' the same way and with the same business meth ods that the affairs of this state have been conducted for the past eight or 10 years would go broke. It is not so much whether it is the fault of the Legislature or the fault of the people, or whose fault it is, the fact remains that it has cost too much to administer the affairs of the state, and I maintain that the right kind of public officials could and would in a large measure remedy the loose business methods that have been employed." Mr. Johns compared the cost of main taining the various state offices, includ ing that of Governor. Secretary of State, State Treasurer and Attorney-GeneraL He showed that the increase . in ex penses of these officials for the pres ent biennial period with that of 10 years ago was from 150 to 300 per cent. This he characterised as need less extravagance, asserting that the increase in population Justified no such increase in cost of maintenance. George S. Shepherd, Republican can didate for Congress, spoke at a meet ing of the Sellwood Commercial Club last night. Madame Jusserand as guests of honor, the Sons of the Revolution began their triennial convention last night on board the steamer Southland, bound down Chesapeake Bay on a trip that will in elude historic Yorktown, Fortress Mon roe and -Virginia Beach. It will be a traveling convention. business sessions being held on the oat between stopping points. The steamer will return to Washington Sun day.

Ambassador Jusserand recently called ttention to the fact that Admiral De Grasse was the only foreign command er who took part in the American Rev olution who was not honored with a statue. OREGON CITY WINS DEBATERS TAKE HONORS IX MEET AT EUGENE. Protective Tariff Scores Over Free Trade Gospel la Argiment of Hitch School Students. UNIVERSITY OF OREGON. Eugene, April 18. (Special.) The protective tariff scored a victory over free trade in the seml-flnais in the State High School Debating League here last night, when the Oregon City team won a two- to-one decision over the Klamath Falls duo. The winners upheld the negative of the question, "Resolved, That the general welfare of the United States would be fostered by a complete appli cation of the principle of tariff for revenue only." The debaters for Oregon City were Elbert Charman and William Miller; for Klamath Falls, Forrest Peil and Wil liam Hagelstein. The Judges were: Superintendent R. L. Kirk, of Springfield; C. C Collins and E. Kinney Miller, of Eugene. The negative maintained that every downward reduction in the history of tariff legislation in the United States had been followed by a period of flnan cial depression, and that the partial reduction of four months ago had failed to affect the high cost of living. The winners excelled in delivery, Charman made a strong speech in rebuttal. Peil presented a logical argu ment for Klamath Falls. By winning tonight's debate Oregon City qualified for the finals in the State High School League to be decided here during Junior "week-end.

Good Bowels Growing Children Need a Mild Laxative to Foster Regular Bowel Movement. As' a child grows older it requires moro and more personal attention from the mother, and as the fnuctions of the bowels are of the utmost importance to health, great attention should be paid to them. Diet is of great importance, and the mother should watch the effect of cer tain foods. A food will constipate one and not another, and so we have a healthy food like eggs causing bilious ness to ' thousands, and a wholesome fruit like bananas constipating many. It is also to be considered that the child is growing, and great changes are taking place In the young man or young woman. The system has not yet settled Itself to Its later routine. A very valuable remedy at this stage, and one which every growing boy and girl should be given often or occasion ally, according to the individual cir cumstances, is Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin. This is a laxative and tonic combined, so mild that it is given to little babies, and yet equally effective In the most robust constitution. At the first sign of a tendency to con stipation give a small dose of Syrup Pepsin at night on retiring, and prompt action will follow in the morning. It not only acts on the stomach and bowels but its tonio properties build up and strengthen the system gener ally, which is an opinion shared by Mr. John Dey, of Bloomfield. N. J.
