Tacoma this summer will have the only real home for stray animals on the coast. . , For some months William S. Vari Voris ha3 been raising money by popular subscription, and all but a small part of the amount necessary has been subscribed. Plans have been gone over and suitable ones selected and an estimate made of the cost. There will be sanitary kennels, steam-heated, with steel cages and cement floors. 1 Other compartments will be arranged for the caring of cat3 and other animals. . Van Voris says he has in view several tracts on which such a home can be erected. As soon as the entire subscription is raised the city will be asked to contribute. . The Tacoma Humane Society will join with the city for the purpose of caring for the animals. In Eastern cities where large, airy kennels are kept up a great part of the expense is paid by the sale of animals picked up on the streets. WHY DEFY THE LAW? The old Oregon machine is moving heaven and earth to keep their hold on federal pap They were turned down by the people who carried Oregon for a progressive candidate for president three to one against Taft. With the Oregon delegation instructed for Roosevelt the ma chine wants the Taft national committeeman. That is to keep men in office in Oregon who will do the dirty work of the machine. Will the Bourbons never learn? Can they not see that the people are determined to have a new order of things? There is not a federal office in Oregon which could not be con ducted a great deal cheaper than it is. Most of them are sinecures. A sinecure is a soft snap where an official has nothing to do but draw his pay. The Oregonian publishes as very important news that Na tional Committeeman Williamsstarts East Tuesday. It also announces that nothing will be done for some time about reappointing federal officials. That is all the machine can think of in connection with nation al politics. Who is to get the plums, and how can the plums be made to contain more salaried sweetness. In the meantime Roomevelt goes on battering down the walls of professional officialism. , He is going to be nominated and elected by the biggest majori ty any man ever received who ran for the presidency. The foolish Oregon machine will continue to go on its career of defying the law and opposing the popular will. Wtill, it will only help the day of their doom, and when they are cleaned out they will go hide, hair and tail. OLD TURNER WAKING UP. From trie sleep of half a century the good old town of Turner is WfMnp; up. The establishment of a bank there a year ago was the starter of things upward. Not satisfied with being a mere place for holding an annual campmeeting Turner aspires. A new lumber yard has been opened up by the Wassom Bros., of Salem, two enterprising men. Then Simpson, one of the best rustlers in Salem, has located there, and is pushing things. The mayor and city council are progressive, and ready to push anvthing for the good of the town. There is even talk of paving the principal street with some thing besides water and cow droppings. A commercial club has been organized, and there is talk of an electric, railroad to Salem. The Welch line has two surveys, one past the Reform School and one via the Red Hills. Watch old Turner come to the front, and The Capital Journal will help jar loose. ilEDUCIHG TAXPAYERS' EXPENSES SALARIES AM) PEKQl'lSITES OF OFFICIALS WHO A It K TO LllillT.

The other committee will he known aa the "gcueral efficiency committee." Jlils committee will be composed of Principle and i REPORT ANIMALS., three mmnliers from each board and will be permanent In Its character and may be called together at any time. The object of the commltteo will he to develop the general welfare of both Institutions. The governor appointed as members of this committee 11. K Irvine, Senator Voiulerhelleii and C, K.

They might be culled the commit tee of over-reachera. They descended on tho Inst legislature, the Assyrians of ol, whom Hymn compared to the wolves coming flown on the sheep folds, and grabbed about a million of the taxpayers' money for so-called higher education. Twenty-five gentle men spent tho day nt Snlem very pleasantly, ate good meals at the Ma rlon, had the pleasure of slinking hands with the state officials, and, after hobnobbing In the supreme court rooms for a few hours, left for their hollies having done nothing hut appoint two committee to further consider how as lnrge a tax as possi ble might be wrung out of tho people In the future. It was figured by the In experts that about four mills would give the two big schools nt K11 ren and Corvallls about $1150,000 each per annum, and an Increasing amount each year. Not a word was mild about economy or retrenchment, hut Mr. Alderman wanted larger ap propriations fur printing. Friendly Suit feme I'p. A resolution was adopted by the hoard of regents, In which the gover nor Is requested to take stei toward bringing the. Friendly suit (o a hearing on Its merits. Coventor Went made the urgpstlon to the regents tlmt thev withdraw one of tho appreciations for $l7f.00 and allow the other to 1:0 before the pen. pie, stilting there wns a chance for one of the nmironrliitlon bills to carry while opportunities for either to car ry would be reduced to the minimum If both were allowed to go before the voters. i President Campbell expressed the belief that both of the bills would carry. Senator Miller, of Lebanon, declared that neither of them would carry In any county In the state If both went on the ballot. Irvine Peeped Lrnnomy. Before adjournment D. Frank Ir vine, who used to make a living run ning a country paper at Corvallls, and knows a little of the way people have to die to earn real money by work ing, suggested that consolidation ol these schools was in the air, and there should be a standing committee on what might be done to ameliorate the condition of the taxpayer In the way of cutting out duplication. It fell with a dull sickening thud, and Judge Bean seconded his motion. It Is ex nected that the commission of Higher Curriculum, or Tarantulum. or Currl- comb, created a few years ago, might have had something to do with that, but It never appeared. Below Is a list of the gentlemen who met to relieve the taxpayers, and the position each holds and the salary he draws, ine regents get on an average about $150 per annum for their expenses and mlleare. Some serve for nothing, and some do not even attend the meetings of these august bodies. The taxpayer is not very strongly represented; on these administrative bodies of the gen tlemen who expend the people s mil lions. The Official Aggregation. State Superintendent Alderman, L.

Newberg, Ore., May, 1912. The con tract for paving the Bt reels of New. berg was awarded by the city council Inst night, bltullthlc being the material selected. The decision of the council was practically unanimous as to the material to be used, as the mayor and council, as well as the committee rep resenting the property owners, have had the matter under consideration for some time, and have thoroughly In vestigated the claims made by the va rious paving companies as to the mer its of the different materials pro proposed. Though paving propositions, slight ly cheaper as to Initial expense, were submitted, It was conaldered practical to select the more durable bltullthlc. owing to the great saving made pos sible In the maintenance, as this ma terial lasts for years without the ne cessity for repairs. General satisfaction Is felt regard ing the action of the council In the se lection of paving material, a natural result of the unanimous action of the property ownors In signing the peti tions thnt have been circulated In fa vor of bltullthlc, and the work of pav ing, which will begin at once, Is said to be but the forerunner of much Im provement which will take place here this spring. There never was a time when peo ple appreciated the real merits of Chaniberiuln's Cough Remedy more than now. This Is shown by the In crease In sales and voluntary testi monial from persons who have been cured by It. If you or your children are troubled with a cough or cold, give It a trial and become acquainted with Its good qualities. For sale by all dealers. lournal "Want Ads" Bring Results.
