SCALING WAGES MAKES
PARK PAYROLL LOWER

Scaling wages according to merit
has resulted in decrease in the park
departments payroll of about S14.5O a
day, according to a table presented 10
the commission by Commissioner Z.
H. Randall yesterday morning.
Mr.. Randall is not pleased with the
arrangement, and Mayor Alexander was
not pleased, either, when he saw how
it was working. An attempt was made
by Mr.. Randall to have the old scale
Of a $3.50 a day minimum wage re-
stored, but the matter was laid over
until next week because Commissioner
Lippincott, who originated the system,
was not present yesterday.
Several months ago the park commits
sion adopted a system of payment with
five grades. The minimum was 50 a
day, and from that it went to $2.25,
$3.50, $2.75 and 49, The men were to
be paid according to their merit, and
the foremen were the judges of the
merit.
Mr.. Randall has found that under the
new system fourteen men are receiy-
ing 81, thirty-seven men s2.25, twenty
eight men $3.50, seven men $2.75 and
eight men SO day. The eight men
are semi-gardeners and received So
under the old system, while all the
others We're paid $3.50 day. He finds
that under the new system only seven
men have been increased and they but

CITY WILL OPERATE PUBLIC
FERRY TO TERMINAL ISLAND

The board of public utilities has ad-
vised the council not to grant fran
chises for ferries between Wilmington
and Terminal Island. as such fran
chises would interfere with the city's S
plans for municipal ferry. Fran
chises for ferries We're asked for by N.
T. Stone and the Joseph Fellows Yacht
and Launch company These applica-
tions were denied.
At the same time the council author
lied the board of public works to ad-
vertise for bids for a municipal ferry
and landings and to award the con-
tract, provided the price was within the
budget appropriation of $4,000.
Councilman Betkouski, chairman of
the harbor committee, declared that he
feared the municipal ferry would be
merely a plaything, as the city would
have a hard time to find landing places
in the harbor.

PROBLEM OF B|LLBOAROS
CAUSES COUNCIL DEBATE
City Attorney Instructed to Dis
solve Injunction varney OBJ
tained Against Ordinance

Not one FRIEND has the billboard
trust in the city council, and the coun-
ell proposes to do things to the Dill
boards that will demonstrate to their
owners that their recent action in
erecting double -deckers" is thoroughly
resented.
From a multitude Of motions that
passed through the council yesterday
affecting the bilboards three are OF
special consequence. The city attorney
was instructed to Immediately. take
steps to dissolve the injunction suit
that T. II. B. Varney has secured
against the operation of the billboard
ordinance. The city attorney was also
instructed to redraft the ordinance
so that the provision concerning the
maintenance of billboards more than
six feet high shall go into effect at
once instead of September, 1911, and
the legislation committee was IN
structed to put as high a license tax
on the billboards as they can stand.
QUESTION OF LICENSE TAX
The license fee tax suggested was
from w. J. Washburn, chairman of the
finance committee, who always has the
condition of the city's Golfers in mind
Make the license fee little higher
than they can stand" suggested Coun-
CllliltiH w illllGll.
II would like to, but I don't believe
we can legally" answered Mr.. Wash
uurn.
C. f. Burnell attorney for the Var
ney company, said that eff the six-foot
provision went into effect the bill
boards would have to go out of busi'
ness.
II hope they WILL" emphatically de-
ciared Mr.. Washburn.
Councilman Andrews criticised the
legal department because 1t had not
taken steps to have the injunction dis
solved several months ago, and there
was a general opinion among the coun-
cilmen that there had been some laXity
in the matter in the city attorneys
office.
BILLBOARD OWNERS CRITICISED
President Lusk stated that In TAX
ing advantage of the temporary in
junction against the billboard ordi-
nance and constructing two-story bill
boards, the billboard people had shown
their contempt of the council and he
had no sympathy with them.
The ordinance, passed by the council
nearly a year ago, prohibits the erec-
ton Of billboards more than six feel
high and provides that after Septem-
ber 1911, all existing billboards must
be cut down to six feet. 1t was this
ordinance against which Mr.. Varney
secured an injunction that has not yet
been dissolved

INSANE ARIzONAN HERE;
RETURN, ORDERS COURT
Judge BordWeII Declares CaIitor'
mia Cannot Support AffIict-
ed from Other States

An attempt to thrust the care Of an
Arizona man on California was pre-
vented yesterday by Judge Bordwell'
presiding judge Of the superior court
who. sitting with the lunacy commits
sion. inquired into the case of Charles
Bristow.
Although the judge was not unaf-
fected by the pathetic side of the case,
he was firm in his command that Ari-
zona must care for its own pubic
charges.
Bristow. who at times is said to be-
come violent, arrived in Los Angeles
a few days ago. He had been sent 10
this city in charge of Ed BOchart from
the home of his aged father, James
G. Bristow of Cornville, AriZ.
FATHER PROVIDES FOR TRIP
Bochart and Mrs. Telithe Wilber
who lives in Los Angeles, and who Is
a sister of the afflicted man, declared
that the aged father had given Bochart
only $l2 for his son when the start 10
this city was made, the climate here
being a sort of last hope that the 1ath-
er had for his sons mental cure. He
hardly had arrived here, however, until
it was necessary to send him to the
police station. There he was given in
to the care of the surgeons in the re-
ceiVing hospital VINO declared tlle man
insane and sent him to the county hos
pital to await his hearing before the
lunacy commission.
Mrs. WILDER declared that her father
is unable to come for her brother and
asked Judge BOrdwell to commit him
to an asylum.
at is ridiculous to expect California
to care for the insane of Arizona said
the judge. He is a citizen of that
territory You say he was even born
there, and he must return there for
the authorities Of Arizona to give him
attention"
PROBLEM OF MANS RETURN
How to get Bristow back to his home
was a problem, Bochart, who brought
him here, objeCting strenuously to es-
corting him back again.
Il want to know what you fellers
here pay taxes for, anyway" he blurt-
ed out at the judge and the commits
sion.
I'VE don't do it to care for the in
sane of Arizona" said Judge Bordwell
"and you will have to take the man
back"
When the case was concluded Judge
Bordwell declared that every similar
attempt always has been and always
will be circumvented whenever there Is
the least sign of another state or terri
tory trying to eVade caring for such
persons

SOME POLITICAL WISDOM
FROM HENRY HALL

When the papers advise one
thing the managers advise anoth-
err. In Seattle we find that the
papers are in a fight over the
democrats. One paper advises
them to go in and vote for Judge
Burke, a former democrat. while
the other paper advises them to
stay out of the primaries, but the
candidate of the latter paper adj
vises the democrats to go in and
vote for John L. Wilson, in fact
some of the leading men on the
Seattle Wilson committee are
democrats.
In Tacoma we find one paper
advising the democrats to stay
out of the republican primaries
while another paper makes the
claim that a man whether he be
democrat or republican is a traitor
to Tacoma unless he forgets his
politics and votes for Ashton. Go
Iup around Ashton headquarters
and we find several democrats put
ting in their hardest strokes for
the general and at the same time
opposing Stanton Warburton, an
other Tacoman, who has every
chance of being elected to con-
gress should he get the support of
Tacoma and Pierce county.
Party politics are a good thing.
Good for the bosses. Tacoma has
a member of tine supreme berch.
A solid delegation to the republic
can convention would hold him on
the bench but the bosses have
made mp their minds TO nominate
Judge Rice, who hales from Lewis
eounty and in the wind up Taco
ma will get left.
There is one thing I'm this
fight that seems to have es-
capped the papers. Two years
ago the party bosses insisted
that every man who ran for
the legislature should take
the pledge to support the
nominee Of his party, but this
year It Is different The
bosses are afraid that the
people might choose Poindsx-
The Tacoma times. [volume] (Tacoma, Wash.) 1903-1949, 1910-07-25

in the primary and the people will
rule.
When a man tells you that you
owe it to Tacoma to vote for Ash
ton, ask him If he is voting for
Warburton. When a man calls
you traitor because you will not
support his choice for the United
States senate, ask him how much
pay he is getting from the bosses
to talk in that strain.
Judge Henry Mcbride, who was
the governor of Washington be-
fore Meads came in, says that
Poindexter will carry Spokane
with larger vote than all other
candidates combined, and Mcbride
is supporting Judge Burke.
