LISTER'S PLAN FOR WASHINGTON STATE FLAG NOT APPROVED Sons'of American Revolution , Adopt Resolutions in Sup port of Old Gfory. SEATTLE BOY WOUNDED Karl ST. Llewellyn Reported la Ger man Hospital After Belgium Battle. (Snw-ial to Tb- Journal.) Seattle. Wash., Feb. 27. The plan of Imniel B. Trefethen, chairman of the Scuttle library board, to establish branch libraries and free reading rooms that will be made vacant when - the saloons go out of existence, Janu ary 1, 1916, has met with opposition. The proposal has been called socialis tic and lending itself to higher taxes In Seattle. : Dudley G. Wooten, a Seattle attor ney, and formerly a member of con gress from the stare of Texas, ha tnis to say; about the scheme: "It Is estimated that the loss through saloon licenses will be at least 1500,000 annually to the city Now It Is suggested that on top of this material reduction In the public revenues and consequent increase of the burden of taxation, the city shall add an additional uncalculated item of public expense in the way of free libraries to reimburse the landlords who will lose their rentals in th Vacated property, as well as to con sole the bar room habitues who are deprived of their customary solace. it may be conceded mat for a .considerable number of persons the bar. room is the substitute for the rich man's club. But It may be doubted that the condition Is a good one, or that its victims are entitled to free provision for their comfort and entertainment." Opposition developed at the annual meeting In Seattle of the Washington. State society. Sons of the American. Revolution, to Governor Lister's sue gestion that the legislature adopt a state flag, and resolutions were for warded to him In protest. The so ciety took the position that the Stars and Stripes constitute not only the national . emblem, but that of the states as well. In his annual message to the legis lature Governor Lister urged the adop tion of a distinctive banner for the commonwealth. Byron. Phelps, auditor of King countyj and himself a Civil war vet .eran, introduced the . resolutions against a state flag at the Sons of the American Revolution meeting that were unanimously adopted. The reso lutions recited that as Washington was named in honor Of the first presi dent of the United States, there 'should be no flag adopted to be dis played with the American flag. "The sentiment of our people is for one country and one flag the dele- gates agreed. The story of the- exploits of Karl N. Llewellyn, aged 22, a former Seattle boy who' nojw lies desperately wounded in a German hospital after fisrhtlntr in the army of the kaiser, reads like a tale 'of one of Richard Harding Davis' Soldiers of Fortune. Llewellyn Is well known here among the younger set, as he was born In Seattle and re ceived his early education in this city. Young Llewellyn's secret enlistment In the German army caused interna tional machinery to be moved to have his commission cancelled, and al though he was dismissed from service by imperial edict on petition of Am bassador Gerard, he found his way back Into the ranks and was wounded in the trenches In Belgium.; After leaving Seattle, Llewellyn en tered Tale university and became an honor man. He won a $1000 scholar- Ship in the University of Paris and What Does Your Mirror SaytoYou? If Your Face Is Not Fair, You Are . Not Fair to Your Face.

It Is an Exquisite Joy to &ook in My Hirror How Stuart's Calcium Wafer Gave Me Back My Clear Complexion." Stuart's Calcium Wafers act directly upon the sweat glands of the skin, since their mission is to stimulate the excretory ducts. They do not create perspiration, but cause the skin to breathe out rigorously, thus trans forming perspiration Into a gaseous vapor. The calcium Sulphide of- which these wafers are composed consumes the germ poisons in the sweat glands and pores, hence the blood makes a new, smooth skin in a surprisingly snort time.. You will never be ashamed to look at yourself in a mirror, once you use Stuart's Calcium Wafers.'

While he studied under the gruldance Of French savants, his heart was In Germany, for he had been a student in Meckienberg, and fell In ! love with a pretty. German girl. When the war ; broke out, Influ- enced by his sympathies, he left Paris ; with a party of German students, and disguising his nationality, enlisted in the German 'army at Osnabrouck.

Dr. Mueller has a degree of doctor or laws. Besides Eiyrlish and German, he speaks Freneh and Japanese, and he reads Chinese readily. He was taught .Japanese especially for the German diplomatic service In Japan.

When he returned to the United States he was made consul at Philadelphia, and remained there until he was or dered to relieve the former German consul in Seattle, Baron Wolf von Loehneysen. Mayor Gill and organized labor In Seattle are at swords' points as a result of an Interview given out by the chief executive opposing the can didacy for the council of T. H. Bolton, president of the Seattle Central Labor Council. Mayor Gill declared Bolton was in sympathy with the I. W. W. and, moreover, was not capable of using sound business Judgment in dealing with the affairs of the city. Bolton was nominated at the prim aries. He and five others will go before the voters Tuesday and three will be elected to fill vacancies for the three-year term in the council. Besides Bolton, the candidates are Joslah Collins, Will H. Hanna, A. E. Parish, A. F. Haas and H. E.

Well, I will have to make afe exception for the poor horses, that had to pull up the grade over a mile or so of unfinished road, through mud hub deep in places, had no time to rejoice. To get their load to the top of the hill was the work cut out for them. Personally I think Mr. Hill saves about a mile of the old-style bottomless mud road as a sample of what was, as a contrast to the Wonderful Maryhill road. As we pulled out Of this "slough of despond" onto the well kept bitullthio roads of Maryhill, Governor Wast said, as he pointed to the mud and the pavement, ''Mr, Hill, that Is an Im pressive contrast of what Is and what can be, or rather what is and what isn't-" "Even the horses are glad," said Mrs. West.

Below us, looking like a toy village, were the few "scattered houses of the old town of Columbus, now Maryhill. To the westward Mount Hood, clothed In spotless white, was outlined against the blue of the west ern horizon. Boon we came in sight of the new house a sturdy, massive structure, built of steel and concrete. This is the first house of this char acter to be built on the banks of the Columbia. Half a century hence the Columbia will be lined with homes of this character, just as are the Hudson and the St. Lawrence today. Mr. Hill's house will cost somewhere between a quarter and a half million dollars. We went all over it. One gets an Idea of Its size when one learns that the dining room will seat 250 people comfortably. Through the center of the house is a driveway for automobiles. ' Guests step out of their machines into a reception room and from there to the electric elevator, or they can drive up an inclined plane to a passage way through the Becond story. Roomy kitchens, large bed rooms with bathrooms and fireplaces, a huge library, living rooms, dens and numerous other rooms are to be found throughout the house. The walls are very thick.

Mrs. Nicholas Clinton, well known pioneer of Oregon, died at the family home here early this morning at the age of 73 years. Mrs. Clinton was Sarah J. Ross, daughter of Job Ross, and was born in Illinois. She crossed the plains with her parents in a prairie schooner in 1846. The start was made from Illinois In 1845, with ox teams, but they were driven back to the Missouri river by the Indians,- and spenX the winter there. Proceeding westward on their Journey the following year they made the rest of the trip in safety and settled in Astoria, where Ross engaged in the hotel business. In 1863 Satah Ross married Nicholas Clinton, ship's carpenter, who came to the coast by way of the isthmus in 1859, and en gaged in general contracting business in Portland. Nicholas Clinton died in 1904. Mrs. Clinton leaves three sons, one daughter: J. C. Clinton, county clerk of the county; J. R., accountant in his brothers' office; Dewltt in Portland. .

"I have planned it for a good, comfortable and substantial farmhouse. Here I can let the world wag as It wilr. My cold storage plant will keep my meats and farm products in good shape. It is large enough to have a few friends drop in and take pot luck with me. I can keep them warm in winter and cool in summer. On the roof we will have our outdoor bedrooms throughout the summer months, and we can look up and watch the wheeling constellations Swing across the night sky, or look down on the Sea-seeking Columbia or at Mount Hood in all its varying moods. Significance of Good Boads. "Some day the people will realize mat they can have any kind pt a road they are willing to pay for; and that the price of bad roads is more than they can afford to pay. When they realise that they will find Farmer Hill here on his farm ready to put his shoulder to the wheel." We had left for our morning drive with the suggestion from Mr. Hill to Sam, the cook, who has been with Mr. Hill for 35 years, that he have some sandwiches ready for a hasty lunch when we returned. We were back from our drive by noontime, with good ap petites. Our sandwiches turned out to be a home-grown golden' bronze roasted turkey with trimmings, a huge roast of beef, pineapple, combread, honey, sweet potatoes, salad, carrots, beets and various and sundry other things. Sam is more than a cook; he is a poet, a philosopher and an artist. With him the preparation of food is a science and a religion. Knowing Sam, one does not wonder that the dining room in the new farmhouse will, seat 250 guests. After lunch we went down to the river, and In the presence of the neigh bors and sonie of the original settlers the Indians took part In the cere monies of launching the new ferry boat, the "Governor West."

The proposition of securing a supply of water for Oregon City from the South Fork of the Clackamas river was taken up by the Pure Mountain Water league in the fail of 1913, shortly after Oregon City had passed through a se vere typhoid epidemic. This epidemic, during which the drinking fountains in the schools and on the streets were closed and the citizens ordered to boil their water, brought home to the peo ple of this city the necessity-of a change from the filtered water to a supply that would be more pure. Surveys were made by Engineer H. A. Rands and checked over by 1. C. Henney, consulting engineer for the United States government. The esti mates as a result of these surveys and the low price obtained on pipe and ma terial has made it evident the water can be brought to this city and entirely paid for within 30 years by a rate to consumers of not to exceed $1.6S per month. - - Information has been received that Centralia, Wash., is pay In interest at 6 per cent on a bond issue of $300,000 and providing for a sinking fund to re lieve the indebtedness by a rats, of $1.75 per month. - There are about the same' number of consumers in Centralia aa in Oregon City.
