jority
Exciting Contest Between
Factions of the De-

fire department was held at depart
ment headquarters yesterday afternoon
and resulted in the election of Joe Mat
thews as chief and b. Gibbons as as
sistant chief after close and exciting
contest. The polls were open from to
S p. IN. Two candidates were placed
in nomination for the position of chief,
A. j. Gibson, of Bennett Hose No. l,
the present incumbent, and j. r.. Mat
thews, of Wardner No. .. For assist

between the two factions of the de-
partment, represented by the rival
candidates for chief and assistant chief,
has been growing for some time, and it
eliminated IN the short, sharp struggle

ing, buttOnhOling and gathering in of
voters.
Following are the names of the
officers of election: Judges, Henry

it was found that lightweight ballots
had been cast with the following re-
suits:
For chief-Matthews, 46; Gibson, AZ.
For assistant chief-Biles, 43; Glib
bons, 45.
Nearly every member of the depart
ment was at headquarters waiting to
hear the result of the balloung, and as
soon as il became known the widest
outbursts of enthusiasm were INDUCED
in by the jubilant faction. Cheers for
the successful candidates were rendered
with true political fervor.
Mr.. Matthews, the successful candi-
date for chief, has been captain of
Wardner Hose Company No. 2 for the
past year, and an active worker in
the department since its organization.

RECRUITING OFFICE OPENED

To Receive Applications For Enlist
ment in the Fourteenth Regiment
Lieutenant Fred w. Sladen, of the
Fourteenth Infantry, U. S. A., has
opened recruiting Office in the Blon-
din block for receiving applications fol-
enlistment to fill vacancies in his regi-
ment. Lieut.. Sladen, previous to COM
ing here, had opened an office in Port
Angeles, but meeting with poor success
in obtaining recruits he was ordered to
Fairhaven, where he expects to remain
two weeks or more. He Is accompanied
by Sergeant O'Leary and Corporal
Peterkin.
The headquarters of the Fourteenth
regiment, for which recruits are wanted
is at Vancouver. On the first of May
there were about thirty vacancies in
the regiment. The district from which
this regiment may draw recruits COM
prises that portion of the state of Wash.
ington lying west of the Columbia
river, with the exception of Seattle and
Tacoma. A permanent recruiting
office for all branches of the service has
been established at Seattle. Last year
nearly 100 men were enlisted there.
Applicants for enlistment must be
between the ages of Is and 80, unmar-
ried, of good character and habits.
Minors can be enlisted only with the
consent of their parents or guardians.
The term of service is five years, but a
soldier having served one year can pur.
chase his discharge for $780, with a
reduction of S. in the purchase price
for every subsequent month until he
completes two and one-half years SER
vice. He is then entitled to furlough
for three months with privilege of dis
charge at its expiration.
All applicants are subjected to a
physical examination in the recruiting
office and another more vigorous one
at the regimental headquarters at Van.

almost physical perfection in recruits.
To be received, applicants must be not

pounds, and two pounds additional for
each inch in height up to five feet
seven, and five pounds per inch above
this height. They must have perfect
hearing and sight, good teeth and per-

ments that out of 100 applicants exam
lned at Vancouver only 80 were ac-
cepted.
The pay Of privates is Sl3 per month.

$40 to 800 per year on his clothing al
lowance. The new regulations have
reduced the number of desertions fully

The provision for the purchase of dis
charge has done much to cut down the
desertiOn.
