Following his remarks, W. G. Mc Phorsou spoko on tho need of a homo guard and asked for tho sup port of tho Commercial club in ob taining an appropriation from tho county court for tho purchase of uni forms. Principal Grant of tho high school also discussed tho guard, say ing It was a civic asset, needed for tho disciplinary power It offered and as a means of helping to train boys of tho high school who woro anxious to Join. Tho club voted to appoint a com roltteo to assist tho guard In obtain ing its uniforms and a committee was also voted to confer with tho city council and suggest plans for the formation of volunteer flro depart ment.

ALL Democratic CandldAto Sow In Itace Mot" Chance ,t'all to Im proTO No Need to Clianjco Htnfrnirnt. SALEM, April 4. (Special to Tho Bulletin.) Members of tho public service commission aro becoming ap palled nt reports coming from vari ous parts of tho stato relative to sentiment developing as to tho bill providing for tho decapitation of the members of that commission. Tho bill Is duo to go boforo tho clectorata next November and Its immediate animus Is tho order of tho commis sion increasing tho street car fare in Portland from 5 cents to C cents. When tho bill was first suggested tho boys about tho commission wcro Inclined to treat tho subject lightly, hut their consideration of the situa tion Is becoming much heavier since tho folks from homo aro being heard from. Portland Is a veritable hotbed of anti-commission talk nnd tho various mombors are being labeled every thing from crooks to imbeciles, es pecially by the straphangers. Soaaa such outburst was expected for a tlmo and It was beliored that it would dto down, but tho sentlaaeat seems to be blooming moro fully In stead of withering. Jurlgo Henry McGinn, magnetic orator, fa farming the flamo of discontent until In some places It has risen to fever heat. SurprlKO Is Sprang. Dut the surprise to the commis sion has come from the communities outstdo of Portland. Not only In- the valley; but In Southern Oregon aad Eastern Oregon It Is reported that a decided sentiment has sprung up to tho effect that the commission is out living its usefulness. Two big things aro mllltattag against tho commission. One of these is tho 6-cout fare order and tho consequent talk that tho commis sion Is playing its cards to tho big gest utility corporation In the state, and tho other Is federal control of railroads, which Is causing many people to assort that over half of the reasons tor tho commission's exist ence havo been removed. With one side hammering on tho utility end and the other side on tho railroad end, the commission is find ing due cause for worry. On top of this, another significant phase Is found in tho fact that ap parently ithore will bo no opposition to tho candidacy of Frank J. Miller for re-election as member of the commission from tho stat6 at large. Thoro was talk of opposition boforo tho rendition of the 6-cent faro opin ion, but after that the talk subsided. Commission members ithomselves ad mit In talking the situation ovor that tho opposition may have vanished from tho vory uncertainty of chore bolng any job to bo elected to after tho Novomber eruption. No Prophecy to Make. This is no prophecy that ho com mission Is going to bo abolished, or no hint that it should bo abolished. Tho situation simply simmers down to tho fact that tho commission U badly scared nnd jobs at ?4,000 por are nat numerous. Uesldes, thoro Is every indication that the coming welter will bo a hard ono. Tho people next Novcmbor also will bo called upon to vote on a slight nilllngn tax to take caro of military exigencies for tho Jioxt blonulum. Tho 6 por cent, limitation amend ment makes it imporativo that If a levy greater than C per cent, ovor stho levy of the preceding year Is al lowed, It must bo allowed only at tho dictates of a majority of tho voters. When tho limitation amend ment waa pawod of course there was no hint that tho United State would bo In Mo greatest war in history as early as 1913 and a nurabor of un locked for omongouolcs' have arisen which will artako It expensive sled ding for the toxpayors it tha mighty conflict continues.
