HIGHER PAY FOR ARTILLERY.
President and Chairman Hull Agree
IT should BE Granted.

Unless the War Department is author
lied by Congress 10 give the noncommis-
stoned officers and men Of the Coast Ar
tillery better pay than they now receive
that arm Of the service is likely TO become
useless for lack Of men 10 man the guns.
President Roosevelt and Representative
Hull, Of Iowa. chairman Of the House
Committee on Military Affairs, had a con-
ference over the problem yesterday
morning. and il was agreed that an in
crease Of pay be asked for.
''The Coast Artillery service" said
Congressman Hull. requires a superior
class Of men. First-cIass electricians
and mechanical engineers are needed, and
such men are worth 500 or Sl25 month
in private life. How, then, can we hope
10 get them for the army at less than a
third of that figure? As soon as these
men who are in the service complete
their terms they can command good sal
aries. and almost invariably leave to ac-
CCpt better pay. If we can get q bill
passed granting the Coast Artillery men
So a month like the Signal Corps, we
hope To make the service what it ought
TO be in every respect"

tive in the interest of Secretary of War
Taft Tor President Eleven newspapers
in the State, including one Louisville
daily, are carrying the Secretary's name
at the head Of their columns as the
States choice for President in 1905
The fact that all the newspapers are
stalwart party organs in their respective
sections, and that their action followed
the Secretary's recent utterances relative
10 his position. is regarded as somewhat
significant The situation in kentucky
shows at least that the leading Republi-
cans of the State construed Mr.. Taft's
words To mean that ne would like 90 be
President if he could not be Chief Jus

DISPUTE DELIVERY OF GOODS.
school Property Clerk and supply
Firm Have Misunderstnnding.

Following the receipt of a complaint
from J. W. De Maine, at the Franklin
School that certain articles were not
delivered with an order supplied by the
Rudolph q West Hardware Company and
the assertion that the vouchers VIII be
held up until the order is completed. W
j. West has requested an investigation
by Property Clerk NJ. G. HargrOve.
In a letter to Hargrove. West states
that an investigation shows that the arti-
cles were delivered in the regular man
ner and that signed receipts for the
same were attached 20 the orders when
they We're returned to the office of the
property clerk with the vouchers Not
withstanding this, West says. 1T is
claimed by the school authorities that the
gentleman signing our receipts. Taylor.
had no authority to sign for anything
delivered at the building.
Property Clerk Hargrove referred the
matter TO Commissioner West. with a
recommendation that Vests letter be
referred 10 the board of education. Har-
grove says in an Endorsement:
I think the trouble complained of by
the Rudolph K West Co. can be avoided
in the future if the board Of education
designateS some one at each school with
authority TO receive and receipt for sup
plies. and advise this office of the names
of such persons. so that the contractors
may be notified. If it he possible for the
board of education TO receive all supplies
