Iowa City's Former Mayor
Tells of System of Com

Which Capital Has Ex

Des Molnea, Iowa, has a system of
expert commlBKlon government, run
ducted by five cniincilmcn, one of whom
Is the mayor. The city Is erolnt? ahead
along lines of business end Improve
ment, and Is growing In population unci
wealth. John MacVlckar, formerly a
mayor of Dos Moines, is n gue.st of
Portland, and yesterday afternoon lie
spoke at the Commercial rluh, Riving
fncta of Interest about Des Moines guv
ernmenL
Years ago . Des Moines was one of
the most slovenly towns In the middle
west. Although the capital or juwa,
one of the greatest states In the Vnton,
the town had but 30,000 inhabitants In
1885, and was the traction renter of a
mule car lino . operated by !r. Turner,
" these cars belonging in a claws among
other comic opera Jokes.
Not until about 180 did the city get
first-class hotel. Then with electric
cars, aome street paving of modern
type, and a few boomers to open new
additions, inspire the -newspapers and
agitate better city government, Des
Moines began growing and Improving.
It has kept up a fairly steady rate of
growth since that time.
Some years ago the non-partisan
movement struck Des Moines and Its
city government began to Improve. The
city has never let go its advantage In
this resDect. and although a strong Re
publican city It has kept the bugaboo
of non-partisan city government before
the eyes of the politicians. Ultimately
the voters forced the adoption of the In
itiative and referendum, and the recall,
and have now completely remodeled the
cltv eovernment.
"The Des Moines method of city gov
ernment Is a combination of several
eystema," Mr. McVickar said. "It em
braces some parts of the plan of gov
ernment by board of control, by which
all Iowa state institutions are success
fully managed. There are also some
features or the Galveston commission
Included. The initiative, referendum
and recall are embodied in the plan.
"There, are. five men In the city coun
cil, and the mayor 15 one of them. They
select all officials, and civil service
rules are In effect. The five councilmen.
with the mayor, devote their entire
time to managing the city government
"There are Ave departments, and one
of the councilmen Is at the head of
each department. iThe mayor is super
intendent of the-department of public
welfare. A councilman heads each of
the following departments; Accounting
ana finance; ponce, nre and Health de
Hcr.iusn Itiire was a strung demand
for It on tlie part of the livestock men
and breeders of the state, the Country
Chili ami I,liMuk association has de
rided to hold a special combination
sale during the races and livestock
Kliow here the week of September 21-HG.
It will lie. a select sale and only a
small number of horses and rattle will
be placed under the hammer, probably
not mure than .'.0 head of each. In the
entries will be included both race
boises and pun- bird livestock not only
from the muthwest but there lias nl
readv been entered runshlcrahlu east
ern stuff which will appear here In the
J'arlrlc .National show.
The sale will lie arranged for and
conducted on Just as elaborate a sain
as If it were to include all classes and
divisions of livestock whether pure
bred or not, and one of the best auc
tioncers of the east Is being negotiated
with to knock down ' the stock.
About half the number of pure-bred
came mat win be accepted nave al
reauy Dren oirered although the en
tries do not close until Senteniher
and what will be of chief Interest to
the farmers of this territory Is the
fact that a fine string of Clydesdale
and l'ercheron brood mares will go un
hit me Hammer. 1 here Is an extra
strong demand for Mgh-hred draft
horses here In Oregon at present and
the arrival from the eastern stabl
of a good string of such horses for
sale here Is a step forward In the live
stock Industry of the state
Only such animals as are catalogued
will bo placed on sale and thev must
be pure-bred. 10 very head of cattle or
horses offered will first be on exhibi
tion during the meet and will be Judged
ring ncrore being placed
GREAT SUCCESS
Much Satisfaction Expressed
by Catholic Teachers Over
Work Accomplished.
In the show
on the block
The sales will be held two ilivi
Thursday and Friday, September 24-':fi!
It Is figured that this comhl rin I Inn
sain will be not only of value to the
livestock men and breeders of the
northwest, but it will be a big aecnm
modatlon to the exhibitors of stock In
the show, who would prefer to dispose
of some of their stuff and save the
expense of taking It back across the
country with them after the show sea
son is over.
With the benediction nt St. Mary's
cathedral yesterday afternoon the sec
ond annual institute of the Catliollo
Kducationnl association of Oregon was
brought to a close. Officers of the in
stitute express themselves aa entirely
sausneo with me work accomplished by
mo institute, which brought together
most or me teachers in the Catholic In
stitutions or the state and gnve them
me opportunity of hearing some partic
ularly able educators in department
norn.
The most notlceahlo and character!
tic feature of the Institute was Its
practical nature. There wire no gener
alities, but the special needs of the
teachers present were sought out and
administered to. The institute was
particularly complete this year, all de
partments being of a high Quality, nnd
such new ones as the commercial de
partment having been added to the list.

"All of these heads of departments,
or councilmen, are supposed to be ex
perts in the lines of work they repre
sent. They are nominated for their
fitness to handle their departments.
They appoint and direct their subordi
nates, and are responsible for the re
sults obtained In their various depart

only the finer arts were Included in
the curriculum, but the more practical
stuuies also.
At the opening yesterday afternoon
musical selections were given by Miss
Suza Jones, Madame Daurla and Miss
Anne Dltchburn. Charles Frledel spoke,
ommendlng tho work of the institute
and Its officers and Father Gallagher,
president of Columbia university, spoke
to the teachers on their work.
Archbishop Christie made the closlnn
address or the institute. He spoke of
the necessity for schools and the fact
that thev must ba used to teach rellttion
as religion should be taught when the
mind is mat receptive. He said that
the work of teaching Is one of the no
blest of all professions. He encouraged
the work or the institute and the asso
ciation In gathering new methods of
teaching, bringing the teachers together
for an exchange of Ideas, nnd In system-
itizirig anil unliving the work. Speak
ing of the liturgy, he said that the
teaching of religion apart from Its
piritual side had a great educational
alue as n snbjset of beauty and In
terest.
At the benediction Father Gallagher
presided, assisted by Fathers O Ifara
and Cantwell, with Archbishop Christie
present. The benediction waa sung to
uregonan music.

YOUTH'S SPIRIT

, Crnin Will Fight Well for
Journal Scholarship.
THE STURDIEST peoples of the earth drink beer
drink it from childhood to age. And those are the peoples
who suffer least from nervousness and from dyspepsia.
When one needs more vitality, the Doctor says "drink beer."
The barley is food; the hops are a tonic. The trifle of
alcohol is an aid to digestion.
The proper drinking of beer but not the abuse of it is
good for the weak and the well. And not the least of the good
comes through flushing the system; in getting rid of the waste.
But a beer to be healthful needs to be pure. And it must
be well aged, else the after-result is biliousness.
That is why we are so careful with Schlitz. We double
the necessary cost of our brewing to insure absolute purity.
And we age the beer for months before marketing.
It gives you the good without the harm.
Always on the lookout for some
thing profitable and worth. -while to

succeed Kellaher, makes the blovv all
the more keen.
The changes of orcnnlzntlnnn In thu
council, or rather the dest rnctinn of
the two factions, leaves the council nt
the present time with one party com-
iini-u ui iveiianer una l'riscoil, as the
adcrs. and with Rushllirht Vn ii wli n
Cottel. Concannon and Dunning as mem
bers Councilman Itaker is also counted
In with the new party, as Is Councilman
Keldlng. The rest of the members do
not know where they stand with the
exception of Cellars, who hns nhlnrwl
all party organizations in the council
and will stand alone.
Thus with practically a solid -otlng
majority oi eignt neiianer Is placed In
a position where he will be enabled to
Influence largely the appointment of
his successor, If he cannot actually
name the man.
It Is believed by some of the cltv
hall politicians that if it were not for
Kellaher's fight against the bitulithie
f 'avement he would resign In a short
Ime in order to take advantage of the
present state of affairs and name tils
successor. Kellaher's well known en
mity for bltnllthic paving, however, is
expected to keep him In the council. so
long as ne has an opportunity to oust
the bitulithie company from dolnir
nusiness in forwanoj.
rbnl Kellaher will be unsuccessful In
his efforts In the paving war Is be
lleved. because If the council votes to
oust the company. Mayor Iane will veto
the ordinance. If this Is done It is
practically certain that Kellaher will
lose, hecause It Is believed that he will
not be able to land the necessary 10
voies 10 ovei l ine ine veto.
Just who will succeed Keljsher Is now
Uncertain Since the appointment of
Masters has been relegated to the
background there has been no further
ncfioTi taken In naming a successor and
the matter will In all probability be

and decided to enter and try for the
Portland Academy scholarship. Har
ry is the son of N. J. Craln. the well
known and prominent druggist for
merly with Woodard-Clarke but now
connected with the Thomas Pharmacy
In the Perkins hotel. He was horn at
Elgin, Or., 15 years ago and has lived
in Portland for eight years and is a
member of the church of the Holy
Rosary, corner of East Third and
Clackamas. He attended the Irvington
school last year where he was In the
Ninth A grade.
Harry is not able to cover the ground
and canvas as easily as other contest
ants, owing to the fact that a serious
Illness when five years of age, left his
lower limbs completely paralyzed. He
Is fast regaining the use of his Hmba
and although his canvass must be
made on crutches he is not at all dls
couraged. The work Is agreeable out
door work and this young man is at
work bright and early every morning
WU1 Cover City.
At present he is canvassing his own
neighborhood, but expects soon to fin
Ish and he will then make excursions
to different parts of tho city in his
campaign for subscriptions.
lielng a very bright ami Intelligent
lad, he Is determined to stand high in
the score list at the finish so that his
wish for the Portland Academy schol
arshlp will be- attained. No doubt we
shall bear from him often and the
many friends of the "rain family will
come forward with loyal sumiorL
Surely if this bright lad, not the phy
sical equal of other hoys and girls, has
the courage and determination to ob
tain a free scholarship, many 'others
could easily do the eame nnd obtain
a vaiuaiile scholarship and expense
money at ine same tune it is never
too late to learn. Any one between the
ages or 10 and do can compete in The
Journal's contest. Many young men
and young women, w ho are employed
during the day nt meager wages, could
with determination secure enough sub

Many people who are neglecting symptoms of kidney trouble, hoping "it will wear away," are
drifting towards Bright' s Disease, which is kidney trouble in one of its worst forms.
Stops irregularities, strenirthens the urinarv orcrans and builds un th worn-out ficcite
of the kidneys so they will perform their functions properly. Healthy kidneys strain out
the impurities from the blood as it passes through them. Diseased kidneys do not, and
the poisonous waste matter is carried by the circulation to every part of the body,
causing dizziness, backache, stomach trouble, sluggish liver, irregular heart action, etc.
If you have any signs of Kidney or Bladder Trouble commence taking FOLEY'S
KIDNEY CURE at once, as it will cure a slight disorder in a few days and prevent a
fatal malady. It is pleasant to take and benefits the whole system.
n
How to Find Out.
Yon can easily determine if your kidneys are
oat of order by setting aside for 24 hours a
bottle of the urine passed upon arising. If
upon examination it is cloudy or milky or has
a brick-dust sediment or small particles float
about in it, your kidneys are diseased, and
FOLEV-s KIDNEY CURE should be takes
at once.
Q. D. Burhans Testifies After Four Tears.
G. B. Burhans of Carlisle Center, N. Y., writes:
"About four years aco I wrota you stating that I had bean nMraly
cured of a aevero kidney trouble by taking leu than two bottles of
Poley's Kidney Cure. It entirely stopped the brick-dust sediment and
pain snd symptoms of kidney disease disappeared. I am glad to say that
I have never had a return of any of those symptoms during the four
years that have elapsed, and I am evidently cured to stsy cured, and
heartily recommend Foley's Kidnsy Curs to any one suffering from
kidney or bladder trouble."
