SALEM WILL HAVE A MANAGER IF PEOPLE ACCEPT CHARTER Committee Appointed Oyer a Year Ago Is Now Ready to Report, Davis Again Found of Murder ALL WORK EXCEPT ONE Fropoaed Salary W1U Max Z.abor Worth One's Beat Zfforts Coun eil of Seven. (Salem Bureau of Thm Journal. t Balem, Or.. Aug. 20. After spending moro than a year considering th proposition, the committee appointed In July, 1913, by Mayor 8teeve to frame a charter for a commission form of government for Balera, tonight completed Its work and will report at the next meeting of the council. The charter was framed after a study of various systems In use throughout the United States and the committee be lieves It will meet the needs of Salem for many years to come. The manager system has been ae lected by the committee aa the beat for this city, and the manager la to be given full control of the various de partments. One feature of Interest la the provision to do away with titles for men who will work in various capacities. The manager is to behead of police, fire, treasury and other de partments and the men under him are to be only -workers. This was incorpo rated with a view of preventing a pos stbillty that en officer might be so busy living up to a title aa to neglect the duties or his department. According to the charter framed by the committee, seven men are to be chosen as a city council and these men shall constitute the legislative branch. At present the city council consists of 14 men. It is proposed to pay the city mana ger a large salary and make him absolutely responsible for the affairs of the city. Some of the committee men were inclined at first to favor a commission of three, but It was pointed out that in that case It Would be impossible to pay them large sal aries and it would be better to have one man -well paid and capable of handling the city's work. The people of Salem will vote on the proposed charter some time this fall. The date will probably be fixed at the next meeting of the city council. Two thousand copies of the proposed char ter will be printed and distributed. Salem voted down a plan to adopt the commission form of government .about two years ago. However, the ?roposed charter differs from the old n many particulars and It Is believed by Its advocates that it will carry. Flavel Workman Seriously Injured navel. Or., Aug. 20.

Governor West said today that there was no question but that there haa been unnecessary delay in the case. He aald he notified Attorney General Crawford in May. 1911. to start suit., to set aside the- patents but no atten- j tlon waa paid to bis order, and that! it . was about a year and a half be fore tbe state land board ordered Crawford to proceed. Kay objected to tbe employment of additional coun sel to aid tbe attorney general in pushing the prosecution and so the board employed no one. The legisla ture of 191S appropriated 15000 for the prosecution of the cases but not a line of testimony baa so far been heard. Something should be done to push th trial of the Benson-Hyde cases,' said Governor west. "Special coun sel should have long ago been em ployed to see that the state's case was properly presented to the courts In these Important actions, involving 91,000,000 worth of school land.
