WORKS WONDERS
Proposed City Government
, for This City Has Done
'! 3Iueh for Des Moines.
Increased property values, cleaner
atreots. better operation of public
utilities, more easily fixed responsi
bility, and greater satisfaction with
local government result from the com
mission plan of government from a
business man's standpoint. John A
Mott end V H. Seeburger, prrain dealer
from Des Moines, Iowa, ate spending; a
Jew days In Portland, this being their
last stop before returning to their
homes after traveling a month or more
In the Pacific northwest. Both are men
ft considerable prominence In L'es
Moines and they are authority for the
atatement first miiir.
"Mr holdings in Des Moines," said
Mr. Motl. "are much more valuable than
they were two years ago. And thiH is In
spite of the financial depression. Still
Ies Moines is hardly a .fair comparison
Vith some other towns. We have never
had a boom. I am Informed that Port
land never had anything else. Not
being politician, I have not come Into
contact wiui tne discrepancies of gov
ernment by commission from a political
point of view. But I have been grati
fied to see that our streets are kept
. much cleaner and in much better repair
than formerly. We know now whi-re
! tlx the blame for anything that goes
wronjf. The cost or local government is
leas than it was. yet the present plan
seems to me mucn more errecuve. one
of the most gratifying results has been
the abasnca of political strife since the
commission form of government went
Into effect.

NORWAY'S NATAL DAY
CELEBRATED WITH SONG
The concert at Arion hall last night
In honor of Norway's natal holiday,
May 17, drew a large gathering and the
program was much enjoyed. The en
tertainment was, as usual, given under
the auspices of the Norwegian Singing
society.
Professor K. O. Kassa delivered the
principal address, touching upon the
birth of the country as an independent
nation In 1814 when a constitution was
adopted at Eisvold. The Norwegian
Hinging society gave a number of selec
tions, and Mrs. Rose Robinson sang the
solo In "The Great White Multitude."
J. E. Staples appeared in a number of
humorous songs and N. Evanson gave
"Kongekvodet-" II. Saether sang the fa
mous solo in "I-andsighttng." Dr. Emll
Enna was accompanist for the evening.
Brilliant Wedding.
Washington, May 1 8. The Che' y Chase
Episcopal church was the scene of a
large and brilliant wedding at noon
today, when Mlbs Ada Newlands, niece
of Senator Newlands of Nevada becamo
the bride of Dr. Virglnius Dabney of
this city.
RECOMMENDED FOR
THROAT TROUBLE
People in public life, upon whose
vocal organs there Is more or less
constant demand, consider the "com
mon cold" one of the serious afflic
tions. A noted preacher in one of the
larger towns in Massachusetts con
tracted a cold which would not yield
to ordinary treatment, and in a short
time became so hoarse that he was un
able to make himself heard in ordinary
conversation, and preaching from the
pulpit was out of the question.
Acting upon a friend's advice he took
a couple of drops of Virgin Oil of Pine
compound pure on a lump of sugar,
resulting In almost immediate relief
from the hoarseness. It is claimed
that a half ounce of Virgin Oil of Pine
compound pure, mixed with two ounces
of Glycerine and half pint of good
Whiskey, taken :a doses of A teasr.oon
ful every four hours, will break up a
a cold quickly and cure any cough
that is curable. Purchase the Ingredl
enta from the Skidmore Drug Co., or
any other first e'esa pharmacy.
Virgin OH of pine compound pure
is put up only In half-ounce vials,
each vial securely sealed In a round
wooden caae. with an engraved wrap
per, ahowlnjr plainly the name, Virgin
OH of Pine Compound pure, prepared
only by Leach Chemical Co., Cincin
nati, O. The mixture of Whiskey
nd Glycerine with the Virgin Oil of
Pine , compound pure makes a suffi
cient quantity to last the average fam
ily an entire year.
FOUR TRAIHS TO
ASHLAHD DAILY
Southern Pacific Will In
augurate New Service
to California.
The Southern Pacific will Inaugurate
Its new California service including
the Shasta limited, the fast new train
between San Francisco and Portland.
June 3.
As soon as this service la put 'n
effect there will be four through dally
trains each way on the lines in Oregon
between Portland and Ashland, the
southern end of the Oregon division
of the Southern Pacific. At present
there are two through trains to San
Francisco and one to Roseburg. The
two San Francisco trains are to be re
tained, the Roseburg train is to be ex
tended to Ashland, and there is to oe
one entirely new limited train whicn
wii;. it is figured, make the best time
between Portland and San Franci3 :o
that has ever been offered the travel
ing public. This new limited will maks
close, connections at San Francisco for
Los Angeles and in" Portland fqr Puy:ot
Sound and British Columbia points, con
siderably reducing the running time be
tween southern and northern points on
the coast.
The added service on the 8outhjrn
Pacific will give the Harriman lines
four through tiains down the Willam
ette valley, three through trains over
the O. R. & N. to eastern and south
eastern points and two trains daily to
Spokane, one of which runs through
to St. Paul and Chicago.
FIO-BTT OB COTTON rttlD.
The old lfosato Laws forbade the tne of
pork in any form, and modern science baa
confirmed the wisdom of the patriarch In
making taU Law. The flesh of the hoc 1 ln
digeetthtes eois the fit. Food prepared with
lard ia unwholesome. To meet the demand
for a cooking fat that la pure and easily di
gested. The N. K. Falrbank Company.
Chicago, bare pnt on the market a shortening
called COTTOLENE. made from refined veg
euble oil. This cooking fat can be nsed In
any and every way that lard now is, and can
area be used in place of batter In making
fine pastry. Contrast the source of lard the
filthy pig-sty, with the source of COTTO
LENE the pare, white cotton boll, and on
can readily understand the great demand for
tbls pure, vegetable shortening In preference
to the fat of the bog.
MUSICIANS LIGHTEN
BURDEN OF THE SICK
The concerts given by members of the
Musicians Mutual association in the
various hospitals of the city on Friday
afternoons are much appreciated and
will be continued until the weather gets
too warm. Then a brief vacation will
be taken, but the good work will be
taken up again next fall with the In
tention of continuing It through the en
tire winter.
The first concert of the series was
given at the Good Samaritan hospital
last Friday afternoon. It was thorough
ly appreciated by the hundreds of, un
fortunates confined there. Some of them
have been In the hospital for a long
time and to them especiall was the
music a welcome treat. Ujxt Friday
afternoon the orchestra will play at the
St. Vincent's hospital and a week from
next Friday a band will probably go
out to the county farm to play a con
cert for the Inmates there.
It was at first intended to give band
concerts at the hospitals, but it was
discovered that softer music of strings
and reeds would be more sutlable and
so an orchestra of 10 pieces was In
augurated for the start. ,
The concerts are entirely voluntary
on the part of everybody participating.
CASE WILL STAND AS
PROCEEDING IN EQUITY
Judge Wolverton has handed down an
opinion in the case of R. S. Howard,
receiver for the United States Fidelity
and Guaranty company that is
rathar unusual. Injunction was se
cured against Theodore Rowland and
Walter S. Fortene, .the complainant giv
ing bond in the sum of 1 1 000. The in
junction was dissolved and the defen
dants at once brought action to ret-over
the 11000 bond as damages at the
same time stipulating that the entire
proceedings be dismissed. Judge Wol
verton denied the damage but de
creeded that the case be kept before
the court as a proceeding in equity un
