had told her that lie would be present
on aprticular Monday. but he failed
to appear, much to the regret Of some
persons who had been invited for the
occasion. 'When. CHANGING to meet

to the disappointment. He asked for

He had constant dread that his
friendship or acquaintance would be

NICHOLS FAVORITE
I'm STRAW VOTES
Politicians Figure City Clerk
Only Progressive With Good
Chance to Win

Many politicians are saying that II
any candidate on the Bull Moose
ticker Is successful, II will be Charles
n. Nichols, running for reelection as
city clerk.
''Ifbelieve in municipal ownership"
Mr.. Nichols declared. Last January
I went out and worked for the defeat
or the franchise Immediately after

printed a picture of Dick Lindsay
With the line 'Detroit's next city
clerk Now Lindsay, as a clerk In
the justice courts, was the only Re-
tublican In the county building who
worked actively for the franchise.
The word went out: Get Nichols,
and Lindsay was the man picked by
the offended interests to do IL.
81 believe in city government
elected on a non-partisan ticket. and
the time Is coming when We shall see
Il chosen thus. II the people vote for
charter revision-and / think they
will. for everybody seems TO want II
the parties will nominate candi-
dates for the charter commission,
but the names OF those candidates will
then be put on q ballot without re-
lard for party distinctions, and there
Will be elected a charter commission
trom a non.partisan list. That will
be the opening wedge for the non
PARTISAN city government movement,
which l hope will succeed.
The city clerks office Is In real
fly not a partisan office. The clerk
keeps the council records, To him
are referred requests for Information.
There is nothing political about the
position and there Is. therefore, no
reason why party Affiliations should
guide a man In his choice Of a candi-
date. What the people want Is a
man capable of performing well the
duties OF the ONCE.
when | becme city clerk, I deter
mined ITO make city manual a real
handbook of the city government. II
has been made so complete that II

amount so far collected s59,700. or this

Miss Florence Brown, secretary Of

she had ever seen In her experience In
Y. w. =. A. work. The persons pledS-

the cause have been perfectly. sweet.
We have encountered no trouble N

Most of the persons who promised TO
lay so much of their pledges on Ger.
tain dates have paid them promptly.
The association hopes to pay S.UO
more on the purchase price of the lot
by July Is. The purchase price OF the
lot was $l10,274, while the amount sub
scribed WAS $124,97'.
The citizens have paid their pledges

able to pay for the lot entirely within

AUTOMOBILE MAIL
SERVICE IS ADDED
Carriers Now Travel Into North
Washington in Motor
Car. -.

A new automobile mail collection and
delivery service in the north and south
east sections of the city was inaugural
ed at o'clock this morning, when, the
carriers Of Station B were taken to
their routes by a machine similar to
the ones in operation in the northwest
section
The addition of an automobile in the
Station B territory brings the total Of
collection and delivery service machines
up to four.
The new machine will seat eight car
riers with their packs, and is sufficient
ly roomy to accommodate all the collec-
tions possible on one rtip. 1t is of the
same make as the others and Is iden-
tical in design except for the fact that
chassis is longer and the engine is over
the front axle, instead of under the
drivers seat. This gives longer, better
looking and easier running car.
Very little ceremony marked the open4
ing of the new servxice. The machine
will take the place of four carriers,
both?

Congress Provides Funds
For Joint Army and
Militia ManeuVerS

Congressman Hay of Virginia, chair
man of the House Military Affairs Com
mittee, today presented a resolution dp-
propriating 81, 100000 for the expenses of
the joint maneuvers of the regular army
and militia. which was passed, but de-
clared significantly that he would not
treat any other provisions of the vetoed
army dill In the same manner.
The only reason for this provision Is
that the States have gone ahead n
good faith and prepared for these man
euvers. and have expended large sums
of money said Chairman Hay. We
do not care to embarass the States"
A provision for the enca mpments was
contained in the army bill, which was
vetocl by the President, but prepara-
tions for the maneuvers have been
made in anticipation of the appropria-
tion voted today. The troops for the
first maneuvers, at Manassas, Va, ars
already under orders to go to encamp-
ment.
The objectionab BILE bill probably will be
taken up tomorrow, Congressman Mann
objecting to consideration of the
measure today. 1t is expected that an
agreement will be reached by both sides
as to the debate.
Prompt action by friends Of General
Wood and other members who opposed
the Hay bill is all that averted the pas
sage of the bill today, the belief being
that Chairman Hay and his colleagues
intended to rush the bill through in the
absence of some of the Congressman
who are opposed to it.

passed today, extending appropriations
after the close of the fiscal year be-
cause Of failure to pass the regular bills,
were enacted in 1876, 1882, 1884, 1885, 1890,
1889, and 1894, and in no instance was
there such a clamor as has arisen over
the condition brought about this year.
The Fitzgerald resolution, 1t was
pointed out Is in the exact terms of the
one last passed by Congress, in 1894,
providing for a similar condition to that
existing now, except that the month of
July is provided instead of thirty days,
and express provision is made for the
continuance of the Census Bureau, the
because the existing law provides for
the termination of the organization OF
that bureau on June 30.
The reorganization of the bureau is
provided for in the legislative, execu-
tive and judicial act for 1913 but until
the latter becomes effective II Is neces-
sary to provide expressly for a con-
tinuance of the old organization.
In order to avoid possible complications
that may arise in settling salary or pay
accounts under the provisions of the act
of June 80, 1906, requiring that in maxi
ing payments all annual salaries shall
be divided into twelve parts, and each
of such parts into thirty equal portions,
or computing $50 days as a year az
thirty days as constituting month,
the month of July is specified in the
Fitzgerald joint resolution as the ex-
treme period of the time covered by
the proposed extension of appropria-
tions.
