UNIFORM RANK OF THE WOOD
MEN OF THE WORLD is
GROWING.
General Rapson Making Arrangements
for Creation of Two More Regi
mental Commands.

The formation of two new regiments
of the Uniform Rank Of the Woodmen
of the World, is expected to be consul
mated in the state of Washington on
March 8. Major General Will E. Rap
son, commanding the department of
the west, who is in Walla Walla is
now making the arrangements for the
formation of the two commands on
that date. According to General Rap
uniform rank in the Spokane district
will be included in the second regi-
ment and all those in the Waila Wal
la district will be placed in the third
regiment. Spokane will be the head
quarters of the second regiment and
Walla Walla of the third. The first
regiment was organ zed some time ago
with the headquarters at Seattle.
There has been unprecedented
growth of the uniform rank of the
Woodmen in the state of Washington
during the past year and at present
there are Sc organized, we'll differed
and uniformed said General Rapson.
This is one of the most attractive
features of the order and has done
more to increase the membership
among the young men than anything
else.
BY the organization of the COM
panies into regiments in the state
will make place for the appointment of
a brigajier general and a large num-
Der of staff officers. It will also create
many officers for each regiment and
many of the best workers in the rank
will have an opportunity for promotion
from the ranks

like. 1t is said on good authority that
the dresses will be of white, but be-
yond that much Of the talk is con-
lecture.
The pension building is not adapted
to events such as this one, and the
need for some large hall, built by
the government, where the inaugural
ball and great national and interna-
tional conventions might be held, is
becoming more pressing each session.
The thing in the floor is poorly laid,
and there are other reasons why la
dies are not particularly anxious to
don fine costumes to be brushed
against the rough walls, trailed over
the rough floors, and brought into
contact with other things, which
while not out .of place perhaps, in a
pension building, are not regarded as
a proper setting for fancy ballroom.
But despite these objections the
ball will be a great success, and it
will bring out more elaborate and ex-
pensive costumes than have been
seen in this city for many day.
Mrs. Roosevelt and Mrs. Fairbanks
dress handsomely and appropriately
for every occasion, but neither is ex-
travagant, and the extravagant cos
tunes of the inaugural ball will not
be theirs. However, it is understood
that Mrs. Rooseve1t's dress will be
the most expensive that she has worn
in Washington. 1t will be of Ameri-
can manufacture, but the lace and silk
for the foundation came from Brus-
sells, where they were carefully select
ed by her sister, Miss Carew, who has
spent the winter abroad.

all animals slaughtered for use in. cities
of the first three classes was talkel
to death at the meeting of the joint
livestock and dairy committee. The
majority of the committee will prob
ably recommend indefinite postpone
ment of the bill and it will be only a
very small minority that will favor
it's passage.
Those who spoke against the meas
by the attorneys of the large meat
packers, particularly the Frye Bruhn
company. and was designed to hamper
if not to entirely cripple the bus ness
of the smaller concerns. The oppo-
nents of the bill all declared that they
were in favor of state inspection, but
they protested against the fee sys-
tenn provided for in the Dawes bill.
They declared that that was equiva-
lent to paying an informer or a spy
for the number Of victims and that it
would lead to abuses. They said that
this fee plan was the niger in the
woodpile" inasmuch as all the slaugh-
ter houses of the big packing COM
panies were under government inspec-
ton, which was obtained by the COM
panies without cost. They asserted
that the bill would work the greatest
injury to the farmer, who killed a few
head of cattle and brought them to the
small towns for sale. They urged that
this was the real intent of the bill, for,
with this source of supply cut off, the
forced to buy meat of the large firms.
George c. Israel, an attorney of this
city, was the first speaker who OBJ
jected to the bill. He said that he ap-
peared for the farmers of ThurstOn
county and proceeded to outline the
protest that these farmers desired to
make. His speech was long. He
charged that the bill had for it's OBJ
ject the building of monopoly among
the large packers on Puget Sound. He
said that bad meat was sold every day
and that there was not one animal in
one hundred that was not afflicted with
some sort of a disease. He was posi-
tive that state inspection would not
remedy this.
WILDER Soleman, an attorney of Sc
dro- Woolley; A. J. Sp1awn Of North
Yakima, former state senator and at
present the owner of one of the largest
herds of cattle in the state, and John
w. Merritt, of Spokane, appeared for
the bill.
State Veterinarian Nelson also be-
came involved in the discussion, as did
Charles Frye of Seattle. Meat pack
ers and butchers from every section
of the state were present.

NEW REGULATION PROPOSED
REGARDING AMOUNT AND
MANNER OF PAYMENT.
Would Have Male Persons Over Fl
Years Outside Of Cities Pay
Four Dollars.

In the house Representative Bowers
of Spokane, has introduced bill pro-
viding for the levy and payment of
road, bridge, poll and property tax
and providing for the division of coun-
ties into road districts.
The measure is of some Importance,
as it makes new regulations regard
ing the manner of collecting and pay
ing the road and poll taxes in the
county. BY it's terms the office of road
supervisor in each county is also abol-
isned.
Mr.. Bowers would have all male per-
sons over the age of Fl, and residing
outside of Incorporated cities and
the towns, pay an annual road poll tax
of 81 instead of 81 as required by the
present law. This amount, the bill
states, must be paid without exemp-
ton, and is payable on March l each
year. At the discretion of the county
commissioners it may be paid in labor.
Any employer Of labor, when sc re-
quested, must produce list of his en-
ployes, and shall pay their taxes, f
they are due, out of the wages of such
employees.
The county commissioners are re-
quired to divide their counties up into
road districts of sufficient size that the
overseer of each, who is to succeed
the present supervisor, shall be able
to cover his territory in a thorough
manner. In counties where the COM
missioners are not elected by district
they shall each be overseer of dis
trict, of which there are to be as many
as there are commissioners. They
shall serve as overseers without ad-
ditional compensation. The commits
sioners shall also annually levy not
more than a 4-mill tax for general
road and bridge purposes.

nially may have something to do with
the elaborate preparations which are
being made.
The chief features of the Inaugural
ton are the grand parade down Penn
svlyania avenue to the capitol, where
the ceremonies incident to the inau-
guration take place; the ceremonies
themselves including a formal address
by the new president, and at night the
inaugural ball. The parade any one
may see for the line is about two miles
in length. and what with imposing
stands at convenient points, and the
liberal standing room afforded by the
wide sidewalks and streets, no one who
really desires to see the parade need
be disappointed. The ceremonies at
the capitol are also public, and in the
open air, but of course only those who
are grouped nearest the stand which
holds the president can hear what is
said
Full Dress Features.
The inaugural ball is the full dress
feature of the Inauguration. 1t is
in reality a promenade concert, to
which tickets are sold to any one who
has the price, IS. and which as re-
suit brings together a welldressed
company that for size and democracy
is not equalled the world over. For
the thousands of strangers in WASH
ington it is the opportunity of life
time to see the presidential circle in
gala attire.
The president and vice president,
with their families and friends, the
members of the cabinet and their fami-
lies, the diplomatic set in full official
and full dress regalia and dress, the
supreme court members and their
families, the president pro tempore Of
the senate and the speaker of the
house, will be in the van during the
grand march around the interior of the
pension building, and they will be well
worth seeing.
Already some question of precedence
has arisen. The president and the vice
president go first, of course, but it is
is a momentous question whether
the Russian ambassador, as dean
of the diplomatic corps and the pi-
quaint Countess Marguerite, followed
by the other ambassadors and their
ladies, are to precede the cabinet off,
GERS and their wives, the justices of
the supreme court, and the rest of the
official set. including the president pro
tempore and the speaker. This ques-
ton always comes up, but it is al
ways disposed of without bringing
on an international crisis.

BOARD OF WORKS DOES
NOT EXPECT ANY STRIKE
Maestretti Issues Orders That Street
Sweepers Refusing to Work sntur-
day Afternoon Be Discharged.

| The Board of Public Works does not
+. expect any strike of the street sweepers
! in it's employ vino are required to work
on Saturday afternoons, although the law
makes it half-holiday. Commissioner
Eagan stated yesterday that there are
only thirty sweepers detailed for work on
Saturday afternoon, in order that the
streets in the downtown district may be
kept clean during the time when traffic
is on. The sweepers are to take turns on
Saturday afternoons, so that the same
thirty will work every six weeks on the
alf-holday. Eagan says the Sweepers
have received many privileges and should
not object to helping the board out owing
to its financial inability to hire additional
men or give double pay for the half-holi-
day work.
1--WE do not expect any strike" said
Eagan, adding significantly, "and Presi-
dent Maestretti has given orders that any
man who refuses to work on Saturday
charge.
Mr.. Shaughnessy. in charge OF the
street sweeping work said yesterday aft
ernoon that the street sweepers were en-
tirely satisfied and everything was pro-
crossing satisfactorily. The gang de-
tailed for the afternoon work had report
ed without a murmur, and Shaughnessy
said the report that strike is imminent
was made for the purpose of causing
trouble and demorallzing the work OF
street sweeping which is being well done
