quets. In other parts of the same floor
are found the special tea and card
rooms set aside for the use of guests
who wish to entertain in less formal
way. Then there are private dining
rooms, where organizations may meea

is found the crypt, one of the most
unique cafes in existence. 1t is in the
corner of Mason and Sacramento and
is extremely popular with the business
men of San Francisco. It offers a COM

special attention is paid to the cook

Epitome of Hotel Excellence. U
The Fairmont, as it stands today, 10
the epitome of hotel excellence. The
vast experience which the Palace Hotel
Company had in the celebrated Palace
Hotel has been utilized in this house.
To Colonel John c. kirkpatrick, General
Manager of the Palace Hotel Company,
was given the task of instilling into
a brand new house the spirit of hos
pitality which made the old Palace Ho-
tel celebrated in two hemispheres. How
well he has succeeded in doing this 10
evident the moment one enters the
doors of the Fairmont. For the Palace
Hotel spirit of hospitality enfolds one
like garment, making his visit one
of delight, his leave taking one of re-
greet, and his memory of the time so
spent one of great pleasure.
Only hotel in the world in which
every room has bath.
The Fairmont Hotel offers to the
traveller all the conveniences and luxu-
ries known to the best modern hotel,
together with many exclusive features,
some of which we have spoken of above.
Every room in the entire hotel has q
bath attached. For $3.50 one may thus
enjoy a pleasant room, beautifully fur.
nished in mahogany, with a dainty
whitetiled bath; or, for as low as ten
dollars, a suite of ROOMS. Visitors to
San Francisco may rest assured that at
the Fairmont Hotel they will find only
the best of accommodations and service.

Unequaled Entertainment Features

UneQualed Entertainment Features
The ball room of the Fairmont Hotel
is one of the most beautiful, as well as
one of the largest, in existence. It has
one of the few spring floors to be found
IN the country, making dancing pecu-
liarly delightful. It is decorated in
white and gold, with hangings of blue
satin tapestry. Its walls are covered
with mirrors, between which are decora-
tions by the most famous mural artists
of the world. And the ballroom is not
merely an ornament San Franciscans
are a very sociable people, and the rec.
ords of the ballroom show that it is
occupied an average of three times a
week during the social season. Behind
it is the famous red banquet room,
which has, perhaps, held more distin-
guished company than any other room
of its kind west of Chicago. On the
floor below is the magnificent Norman
Cafe banquet room, hall of superb
proportions and simple grandeur. 1t is
the best illustration of hall of the
Norman period. Even the tesselated
floor is made of special design, char
acteristic of the Norman times. From
the lofty ceiling hang chandeliers Of
quaint design, made of hand-wrought
iron in Paris especially for this room.
The long French windows, which cover
the entire north side of the Norman
Cafe, open on the terrace, broau,
tagged promenade, which overlooks the
Bay of San Francisco and the city.
Upon special occasions of large enter
tainment, the terrace is canvassed in,
making another hall, almost as large as
the Norman Cafe itself. On warm days
the terrace. presents an animated scene,
reminding one largely Of Paris or the
embankment in London. Here parties
of convivial spirits gather around the
tables where lunch is served in the open
air, overlooking the most beautiful
panorama of mountain and sea.
Numerous Dining Places.
Another thing for which the Fair
| mont Hotel issnoted is The number and
variety of its different dining places
In them one may find place to dine
as suits his convenience. The Laurel
Court, which is Immediately behind the
| lobby, offers a convenient grill for
ladies and gentlemen. Further on is
the main dining salon, with accommoda-
lions for three hundred people. This
room is done in white and gold with
silken tapestries. From it's windows,

CONGRESS TO STAY
INTO THE SUMNER
Tariff Bill Expected TO Hold
Legislators Here Till
Nearly July 1.

That Congress will not adjourn until
some time between June 70 and July 1,
is the opinion Of the President who has
discussed the matter with the leaders of
the House and Senate.
Although Mr.. Taft and the leaders had
iI<s,s-s-. s-S..-1tAe tariff bill could be dis
posed OF by June 1, this idea has been
abandoned, as il is acknowledged that
the bill presents certain difficulties and
problems which it will take time 10 dis
pose of.
The most significant inference from
this change in the date of adjourn
rnent is that all paTtieS Interested in
the tariff recognizes thac much work win
have to be done by the conferees on the
bin, more in fact than was expected
While there are features in the measure
which are pretty well understood TO be
unsatisfactory to the President at this
time, II is the hope Of all concerned
that they can be adjusted to suit him.
This, however, will take mucn time and
discussion. for most of II will Je the
work of the conferees.
Mr.. Taft stu wants bill whose pur-
poses shall be generally downward re-
vision, and this, Il Is now thought, will
be complied with.
1t is only necessity that will keep Con-
gress here through any part OF June,
but the general recognition OF this ne
cessity has brought all parties TO the
conviC ton that a longer session than
was first expected will be the result.

TAFT WILL DECIDE
FORESTRY DISPUTE
Whole Field of Law Govern
ing Public Domain Likely
to Be Gone Over.

Attorney General vlclersham has
been called upon to interpret the for
estry appropriation act of 1907, which
Is at the bottom of the differences be-
tween the Forest Service and the In
terror Department over the withdrawal
Of ranger sites in six Western States.
President Taft has asked MS chief
legal adviser for an opinion. and viii
examine the whole legal situation of
the service before he renders a decision.
1t Is believed that the dispute will
lead TO consideration of the whole field
or law governing the disposition of
public land and that the Department of
Justice will be asked If there is any
legal way. in the absence OF any sps-
CHIC law making such provision, to con-
serve the natural resources of the coun-
try by Withdrawing land from public
entry.
Both Secretary Wilson, whose depart-
ment controls the Forest Service, and
Secretary Ballinger, who administers
the public domain, say they are willing
70 abide by the decision OF the Presi-
dent, and will gladly carry out his in
depreciation Of the law
The question has never arisen before
they say, because under Roosevelt Sec
rotary Garfield agreed with the Forest
service as to the extent Of his powers

CIVIC BODIES TAKE UP
GOVERNMENT CHANGE
Spirited Arguments For and Against Propositions Made
at Citizens Meetings-E.astern Section Said to
Have Shared Little improvements.

The various civic organizations OF the
District are giving serious consideration
to the change in form of government
propositions.
Varying views were expressed at
meetings of the Randle Highlands and
Columbia Heights Citizens Associations
last night AS the guest Of the former
organization, Thomas c. Noyes declared
himself to be strongly opposed to one
man rule and municipal suffrage, and
as favoring representation in Congress.
AT the Columbia Heights meeting, NJ
I. Weller. Of the East Washingt Citi-
acns' Association. fiercely assailed the
present form as unconstitutional and
un-American."
Mr.. NOyes asserted that a crisis Ia
approaching which viii result either in
& readjustment of the relations between
the District and National Government
or a definite decision that the present

Mr.. Noyes. 1T would simply mean
further taking away of the participation
in legislative affairs now enjoyed by
the citizens. Under such q government
It is inevitable that little regard would
be felt for public sentiment
Would Be Tied Up.
"a man placed at the head OF the
District government By Presidential ap-
pointment would be nothing more than
Cabinet officer or bureau chief. He
would be tied to the National Govern
ment by bands Of steel. He would be as
much under the control of the President
as any other Cabinet official The Dis

impracticable now in view Of the rela-
lions between the Federal and District
Government. If the money spent for
the Improvement Of the National Capt.
tai were extended by q common council
it would be an injustice TO the people
of the country at large. The National
Government ought TO and must pay Its
share of the expenses OF the District
and II would never permit a council TO
have complete control concerning the
expenditure

CANNON AND PAYNE
ARE VOTED THANKS
Delegation of Hosiery Work
ers Pay Them Visit
Today.

The delegation or hosiery workers
from Philadelphia, who came to Wash
ington in the interest Of high tarif
on the article they manufacture, called
on SPEAKER Cannon, and Chairman
Payne. Of the Ways and Means Com
mittee, today to thank them for the
schedule which was Incorporated in the
Payne bill
John s. Stewart, president of the
Workmen's Protective League of Phila-
delphia, who acted as spokesman for
the party. told Speaker Cannon that
the hosiery workers were. extremely
grateful for his efforts in their behalf.
The Speaker modestly disclaimed any
responsibility for the paragraph In the
Payne bill. which gave his callers so
much pleasure, despite the fact that
the girls insisted that IT could not be
done without the able assistance OF the
Speaker. Mr.. Cannon shook hands all
around, and then told a couple Of funny
stories to put his callers In good
humor.
Chairman Payne also was modest. and
said that the Ways and Means Commit
tee had merely endeavored 70 do its
duty and to protect American working
men and women.

support TO any movement for a better

were made also by Harry A. Coleman.
president of the United States Histori-
cal Society; Odell Smith, and the Rev.
John A. Cannon
Opposite views were expressed by Mr..
Weller, who was invited to address the
Columbia Heights Citizens Association.
Declaring the present form to be at
variance with the principles apon which
the republic is founded, he made an
earnest plea for suffrage based upon a
property and educational qualification.

said, has given rise to perziicious sec

Mr. Weller closed with an earnest plea
Cor suffrage which would be extended TO

At the conclusion of Mr.. weller's ad-
dress, Judge Charles s. Bundy, presi-
dent of the association. reaffirmed his
position as an ardent supporter and
advocate of the present form, which.
he said. is the best the District has
ever had.
