Economical Building Programme Is
Outlined Improvements at Van
couver Schools for Defec
tives Are Planned.
OLYMPIA, Wash.. Nov. 28. (Spe
cial.) The Washington Board of Con
trol announced today Its budget for
the 12 state institutions and other re
quirements for the coming biennium.
A total of $3,989,199 is requested from
the Legislature Xor all purposes. Ap
propriations for the same purposes
made by the last legislature were
$4,063,630. '
An increased amount is asked for
maintenance of the state institutions.
On the basis of an estimated popula
tion of 6740 inmates of all institutions
during the next biennium $2,409,385
Is requested, compared with $2,124,535
appropriated by the last Legislature.
The number1 of state wards is increas
ing at the rate of about -15 per cent a
year.
An economical building programme
base been outlined, however, and aside
from maintenance only $1,399,814 Is
requested for the Institutions, as com
pared with $1,759,825 appropriated, by
the last Legislature for these purposes.
Funds for Schools Asked.
The state schools for the blind and
for the deaf at Vancouver, Wash., are
among those for which new buildings
are planned by the Board of Control.
At the school for the blind $60,000 is
requested for a fireproof school build
ing to replace the present frame struc
ture, and at the school for the deaf
$40,000 Is asked for a similar purpose.
At the state's latest Institution, the
State School for Girls at Grand Mound.'
Thurston County, with the buildings
not yet occupied, their capacity is less
than the number of girls awaiting ad
mission. The Board accordingly asks
$100,000 for a new ward building and
an administration and chapel building.
One of the most interesting pro
posals of the Board of Control's build
ing programme is the plan to establish
the institution for feeble-minded on a
new site, a mile and one-half from the
present location at Medical Lake. On
the new site buildings have recently
been constructed for male Inmates. It
is proposed to build sufficient addi
tional buildings to house the entire in
stitution and to turn over the pres
ent buildings at Medical Lake to the
Eastern Hospital for Insane, which Is
outgrowing its present buildings.
Nearly $300,000 Is therefore requested
for new buildings and equipment for
the Institution for feeble-minded.
Asylum May Be Enlarged.
The only other Institutions for
which new building programmes on a
large scale are outlined are the North
ern Hospital for Insane at Sedro
Woolley and the Monroe Reformatory.
,v Plans are to enlarge tlje Northern Hos
pital and make it a receiving institu
tion with a capacity for 750 or 800 In
mates, transferring to this institution
the surplus population at the Western
Hospital for Insane, where there are now
more than 1400 inmates, more than
can be bandied conveniently in a single
Institution. At the reformatory the
plan is to continue the construction of
permanent buildings by inmate labor
and about $120,000 is asked for mate
rials for this purpose.
At the State Training School at Che
halls $20,000 Is requested for a gym
nasium building and equipment.
Bequests for maintenance appropria
tions at the various institutions, show
ing also the estimated population of
each Institution for the coming bien
nium, are as follows:

SOCIALIST VOTE CUT
Falling Off in Idaho Makes
Organization No Party.
TOTAL BALLOTS INCREASE
Governor Haines Receives 5291
More Than in 1912, but Is De
feated Decrease in Progree-
elves Strength Is Shown.
BOISE, Idaho, Nov. 28. (Special.)
The Socialist party of Idaho has ac
complished what the advocates for re
peal of the primary law are urging, for
It is evident from the canvass of the
vote at the last general election that
the Socialist candidates did not receive
at least 10 per cent of the total vote
cast for all candidates for the same
office within the state, and the party,
therefore, must go back to the old con
vention system of nominating its can
didates. A. L. Coblentz, Socialist can
didate for Governor, wbo led the ticket
at the last election, received 7967 votes.
The number cast was 107,913. Ten per
cent would have been 10,791.
It is not at all probable that the
Socialists will worry about going back
to the convention. All their candidates
are passed upon by referendum vote of
the locals before the ticket is placed
In nomination, it is said.
Names Are Written In.
Because there was no competition for
nominations during the last primary
election, and to save filing fees, the
Socialists wrote in the names of all but
one of their selected candidates from
United States Senator down. The only
exception was Mr. Coblentz, who was
nominated by an ardent supporter who
paid the filing fee.
The canvass of the state board also
shows there was a falling off In the
Socialist party vote. Two years ago,
when Mr. Coblentz ran as the party's
candidate for Governor, he received
3127 more votes than he did at the gen
eral election.
Total Vole Iuremscs.
For Governor, taking the total vote
cast for all candidates, there was an
Increase in the vote at the last general
election over the vote cast at the gen
eral election two years ago. The total In
1912 was . 105,495, and In 1914 was
107,913.
Totals for Governor procured from
the canvassing board, which will ktand
without change, show an increase in
Republican. Democratic and Prohibition
votes and a decrease in the Progressive
and Socialist votes.
Governor Haines received 5291 more
votes at the election than he did at the
1912 election, but was defeated. Governor-elect
Alexander, Democrat, has a
proportionately greater Increase, for he
received 13,626 more votes than James
IL Hawley, Democrat, candidate for
Governor, received two years ago. Hugh
E. McElroy, Progressive candidate for
Governor, lost about as many votes as
Mr. Alexander gained.
The total vote cast for all candidates
for Governor at the last general elec
tion, as compared to the vote cast at
the 1912 general election, follows:
1I4.
John M. Haines. Republican 40,847

Statewide Prohibition Does Not Re
peal Local Option TTntll 1916.
OLYMPIA, Wash.. Nov. 28. (Special.)
The statewide prohibition law ap
proved by the voters at the recent elec
tion does not operate to repeal the
local option law until January L 1916,
Attorney-General W. V. Tanner ruled
in an official opinion rendered the
Spokane County Prosecutor.
The effect of the opinion Is that cities
and towns which voted "wet," like
Waverly, in Spokane County, will re
main "wet" until January 1, 1916, when
statewide prohibition becomes effect
ive, and this regardless of whether the
county in which they are located voted
"dry" on the prohibition bill, aa did
Spokane County.
On the other band, cities like Van
couver, which voted "dry," will become
so in January, 1916, a year In advance
of the rest of the state, regardless of
whether the counties voted "wet" or
"dry."

CHANTICLEER'S FAMOUS
CHICKEN DINNERS.
"Tou have undoubtedly heard of
many chicken dinners; you have
heard of chicken dinners prepared
by all sorts of cooks, noted chefs,
etc.; but you have never really
known the height of chicken-dinner
achievement until you have enjoyed
one as prepared at Chanticleer Inn.
Not only the chicken, but the soups,
' the salads, and all the extras that
go to make up this wonderful din
ner reach the height of perfection.".
This is the substance, of a letter
written by a late guest who, only a
few days ago. dined at Chanticleer
with a party of frienda.
A CHICKERIXG FOR CHANTI
CL.EKH. A very beautiful Chickerlnsj Baby,
Grand in satin finish, Circassian
walnut case, and of the wonderfully
, graceful Louis XV design, was pur
chased by the. Chanticleer Hotel
Eeople at Eilera Music House and
as now been installed in the lobby
room of the unique hostelry, which,
by virtue of its location and serv
ice, is destined to become one of the
world's renowned show places.
While Chanticleer's dinners have
become famous and have been de
signated the "perfection of cater
ing." guexts hereafter will be priv
ileged to listen to the music of that
perfection of pianos while enjoyins
the magnificent panoramic view of
the Great Columbia River Gorge,
visible for over &a miles.
HOW TO REACH CHANTI
CLEER. The best way to reach Chanticleer
Inn is by automobile, out East
Burnside street to Twenty-fourth
street, then over to Sandy boulevard
and out through Troutdale along
the famous Columbia River Drive
Just about twenty miles of the fin
est road over which anvone would
want to drive a car. The scenery,
the cuisine, the exhileratins' air, and
the romantic setting of this inn
combine to make the trip well
worth the while of anybody.
i'ou should phone them on long
distance. Pacific phone, just asking
for Chanticleer Inn, and your din
ner will be ready for you when you
arrive.
