mission, in power less than a month,
already finds Itself in a mess that has
invoked numerous pointed personalities
the past week and that it is likely
to take the courts to settle. The trouble
has arisen over Mayor Fawcett'a ordi
nance slashing $10,000 a year off city
salaries.
The ordinance was formally passed
a week ago Wednesday and signed by
the Mayor. At the time It was passed,
some of the Commissioners objected to
a sharp cut to 250 made in tho salary
of the City Attorney, who had been
getting 400 a month. Nevertheless, the
measure went through and reposed
serenely until Monday, when the Mayor
and four Commissioners convened for
their adjourned legislative session
from the previous Wednesday.
Reconsideration Effort Faaaen.
At the Monday meetlifg, a motion
was made to reconsider the Fawcett
salary ordinance and it passed with
the votes of Commissioners Drake,
Woods and Mills. This was followed
by a motion by Mills to amend -the
Fawcett ordinance to increase the City
Attorney's pay from $260 a month al
lowed by Fawcett, to $350; and other
items which Fawcett had cut out.
The amendment thereupon received
the votes of the four Commissioners,
Fawcett alone voting against it and
Commissioner Atkins afterwards chang
ing his vote. Mayor Fawcett there
upon ruled that the motion to recon-

Mrs, Sarah Baber.
JUNCTION CITY, Or., May 30.
(Special.) Mrs. Sarah Baber, a
'pioneer of this part of the state,
died at her home ln this city
after an illness since December
30. She was born in Clark Coun
ty. Illinois, April 26. 1832, and
was married to Joseph Leaffer
ty September 6. 1849. She moved
with her husband across the
plains In 1852 and settled 12
miles from Corvallis, near Mon
roe. Mr. Leafferty and their three
children died. She was married
to C. C. Baber. of this city, in
1901. The interment will be in
the Masonic Cemetery, near Har
risburg. Her widower and two
sisters, Mrs. Matilda Holmes and
Mrs. Klixa Dowe, .both of this
city, survive.
all-day session left the muddle where
it then stood. The City Clerk held the
records showed the Fawcett ordinance
had been reconsidered and had not
passed again and that the old sp.lary
ordinance was in effect.
Mayor Makes Charier,
Mayor Fawcett charged tho whole
thing in putting through the amend
ment was a scheme to put him in i
hole, where he couldn't vote for his
own ordinance because of the amend
ment tacked on to it- He asserted
that Commissioners Mills and Woods,
who are facing a recall election for
which petitions were filed last week,
wanted to have the present City At
torney In office as Fawcett was sure
he would rule against the recall peti
tions and, also, that he would resign
lx nis salary was cut.
city Attorney T. L. Stiles in a
published statement accused Mayor
hawcett of resuming his old tactics
that had caused hia recall three years
ago and trying to dictate appointments
of the other Commissioners, naming
specifically Commissioner Drake, upon
whom Stiles said Fawcett hid attempted
to force friends. The Mayor retorted
in kind and also had a section of the
city charter read at last Wednesday's
Council meeting showing that the
Mayor is given authority to "super
vise ail oepartments.
Inslgned Warrants Likely.
Mayor Fawcett has announced that
If the City Controller draws the salary
warrants for June for city employes
on the basis of the old ordinance,
which his measure sought to supplant,
he will refuse to sign them and Com
missioner of Finance Atkins has de
clared, he will refuse to nay salary
warrants on the basis of the old rate.
The City Attorney and City Controller
both hold that the old rate is still in
effect and that the Fawcett ordinance
cutting salaries has been reconsidered.
The upshot is likely to be unsigned
salary warrants for city employes and
necessity for somebody to go into court
to unravel the tangle, unless there is
some mediation meanwhile. The con
troversy has developed more bitter
feeling than would appear.
"If the Mayor presists in his present
bulldozing- tactics they will land him
on the same rocks where he was a few
years ago." said City Attorney Stiles,
a former member of the State Supreme
Court bench, in his statement. "I was
absent when the salary ordinance was
taken up Wednesday, but I understand
the Mayor literally forced Commis
sioners Mills and Drake to vote for
the entire ordinance. As the matter
now stands, the Fawcett ordinance is
just the same as if it had received
two readings in Council and was up
for third consideration."

At 1:50 the grand march began by
the pupils of the fifth, sixth, seventh

OLYMPIA, Wash.. May 30. (Spe
cial.) The State of Washington has
been such an easy landlord that it has
allowed renters of agricultural and
grazing lands to fall behind more than
$50,000 in their rent, mora than half
of this sum being now uncollectible
the State Bureau of Inspection states
in a report filed with the Attorney
General, after a thorough examination
of the office of Commissioner of Pub
lic Lands.
So liberal have been the terms or the
state in fixing tide land leases, that in
one Seattle Instance, a lot In the dock
and warehouse district, on Railroad
avenue, is rented for 14 per year, the
lease having many years yet' to run.
19SO Rentals Fixed In 18SO.
Rentals for 1920, when ' Seattle, It is
estimated, will ha.'e 500.000 people,
were fixed by conditions in 1890, when
the population of the city waa 4-'.8:i7.
"If Astor had practicd the tide laud
rental methods of-the State of Wash
ington, he would have gone broke early
In the same," is the observation made
by the bureau in discussing this phase
of the situation.
A clear loss of $31,211.54 had been
sustained up to October 31. 1913
through failure to collect rentals due
on agricultural and grazing leases,
the report states, while on the date
named an additional $25,290.92 was de

The bureau's report concludes with a
recommendation to the Legislature that

Lands bo Increased from J:t000 to $5000.
"Two hundred and fifty dollars a
month, after the payment of house rent,
clothing, meat, grocorlos. light, water,

that their main elective officers, from

at any time 15 cents per mile. You have absolutely no idea of the work that
this truck has done through good, bad and indifferent roads, and has never
at any time refused to respond. The truck has taken the place of three teams
and saves me monthly about $250. Yours respectfully,

What this truck has done for Mr. Young it can and will do for you.
It may be, however, that our truck is not suitable for your business. If so,
we would not sell you one.
There are some instances when sC firm cannot use a truck, but for every dne
that can't we will show you nine that can. Maybe you are one of the nine. Let'
us figure it, out for you and see. Have you stopped to think that your deliveries
by horses are costing you 30 cents pjr mile, and they are only covering 20 miles
per day? We can cover 60 miles per day at a cost not to exceed 15 cents per mile
