To Xeoonolle Welsh Cbieftans.
Edward I was the first king of Eng
land to-create his eldest son Prince of
Wales, with the .object of reconciling
the Welsh chieftains to English domi
nation, after the death of Llewellyn, the
last native-ruler of Wales. But it was
not until the reign of Edward III that
the latter raised the earldom of Corn
wall to a dukedom, and bestowed it
upon his son, Edward the Black Prince,
with the provision that it should al
ways be held by the heir apparent who
was the son of the sovereign.
Tha dignity of Prince of Wales carries
with It no revenue, nor even preroga
tlves, and its holder sits In the house
of lords, and is enabled to take part in
its deliberations, not as Prince of Wales,
tut as JJuKe or Cornwall.
Prince Edward Is a typical Anglo
Saxon lad. He was born June 23, 1894,
and entered the Royal Naval college at
the age of 13. With his brothers and
sisters he has been brought up as much
like other English children as possible.
They have been subjected to gentle but
firm discipline and trained In habits of
industry and self-reliance.
After the prince's presentation, the
royal household, together with the long
list of England's nobility, will attend a
naval review in Carnarvon bay. .

BAND CONCERT
Suggestions Freely Jlnvited--Life
of franchises to Be 25
Years Guard Against Pe- j
tition Frauds Taken.
The charter revision commission
wants the assistance and advice of the
public in the important work of making
a new charter for the city of" Portland. .
The commission invites anyone who has
ideas be would like to have considered
to submit them to -the commission In
writing. Such suggestions should be
addressed to' James QUI, secretary of
the commission, care - Auditor's office,
city hall. f
, Decision to invite the public to par
ticipate In this way In framing the new
charter waa made at the meeting of the
commission last night, which was at
tended by all the members with the ex
ception of Oay Lombard, who has, not
returned rrom the east. It was thought
by members of the commission that
while there are 11 of them who are giv
ing their time and thought to the im-
portent work, still It Is probable that
many publicly Interested citizens will
have good suggestions that members of .
the commission might overlook, and the
commission wants to have these sugges
tions before the charter is definitely
prepared rather than have them present
ed when the time comes to submit the
new charter to the people for approval,
franchise Discussed.
Franchises were discussed last night
It was decided that the life of fran- '
chlses should not be over 25 years. ' It
was also decided that where a company
or corporation is given a second fran
chise on the same street on which it
now hoW s a franchise, the new fran
chise must be for no longer than the
old one. This la considered to be a pro
tection of the people's interest. The
commission will endeavor to frame the
provisions governing franchises to pro
tect the interests of the people and the
corporations without favor. :
On the motion of ex-Councilman Cel
lars the commission Voted to abolish all
existing boards and commissions con
nected with the city government. This
does not apply to the board of educa
tion and the library commission, as they
are city-bounty organizations.
Ouard Against Fraud.
In this connection the civil service
commission was discussed, some of the ;
members favoring Its retention and oth'
ers favoring abolishing it. Decision was
reached that if the civil service com- ;
mission was retained It would serve
merely in an advisory capacity. The
members of the city commission will
have full authority over city employes, '
but any vacancy caused by the discharge
of an employe will be filled from the
list of ellgibles, according to the rec
ords of the civil service commission. :
As a protection against the securing
of fraudulent signatures to initiative k
ana reterendum petitions, the new char- ;
ter will provide that all names must be '
signed to the petitions at the registrti,
tlon booths at the city hall or county )
building. ,
Attorney F. C. Bronaugh appointed a
committee -of three on civil service, as I
follows: City Attorney Grant, Henry E. J
Reed and S. Grutze. Mr. Grant vai also l
appointed on the committee on! streets, !
sewers and repairs, to fill the vacancy '
caused by the resignation of W. H. Daly.
