LEGAL TIME PASSES
FOR PREPARING 1914
BUDGET FOR TACOMA

Spokane is clamoring for a re-
duced tax levy as she collected 13
mills for city purposes last year,
which raised $1,170,000, while
Tacoma had a 12-mill levy rails
ing only $4,000.
The increased valuation here
this year will at the same levy
add about $4,000 In taxes, but
the commissioners are fearful of
facing the budget figures lest they
see an increased levy necessary.
There is apparently but one way
of avoiding it, to reduce the num-
Der Of city employees, get down to
a basis of rigid economy and pos
sibly cut out the salary boost OF
last year and put the salaries back
where they were.
Seattle Is considering 10 per
cent cut now on city salaries.
The Tacoma times. [volume] (Tacoma, Wash.) 1903-1949, 1913-08-27

Commissioner Freeland began
last spring hammering the city
councilmen to get their budget
in early for next year, but none
of the commissioners have yet
reported. although the legal time
has passed In which they should
have been returned.
City Attorney Stiles this morn
ing notified them they were out
side the pale of the law.
Commissioners this year intend
to try to raise money enough to
clean up past deficits that have
been handed down from year to
year. The same condition has
appeared in all Northwest cities,
apparently. The Seattle controller
has asked Seattle councilmen to
levy 100000 there to wipe out
the deficit.

Daily scenes in Justice Magill's court as wit

William Baverle stood before

wife sat in the witness chair.
The story she told was not COM

He comes home from work
every night and stops at the sa-
loon on Center street and gets q
five-pound lard bucket full OF
beer. He drinks this, and when
II is not enough he drih-5s nine
bottles more. He gets drunk, and
was drunk Monday evening. Then

he would throw 1t In the fire and

making little smoke helps Ia
keep the air pure.
The mine is slightly damp, but
well drained, and no miner has
to work in standing water.
There are enough cars, track,
mules and drivers SO that the
miners lose no time waiting for
cars.
The thickness of the coal vein
- feet-adds greatly to the
comfort and ease of mining. Fol-
the men can work standing erect,
An average working force for
a shift in summer is 90 men,
consisting of one foreman, IL
diggers, two trackmen, two tim
bermen, three "skinners" and
one weigher. There are "a cars
and three mules. One mule rests
while two work.
The coal vein is level, making
easy hauling. The entrance is in
a hillside. The cars of coal are
hauled out three or four at q
time, then rolled singly down an
inclined trestle to the tipple. The
load Is weighed, dumped into a
big hopper, fed through a
crusher, raised on a chain carrier
and dropped into bunkers hold
ing 400 tons, which deliver it be-
low at the mouths of the power
plant boilers.
HERE UNCLE SAM, BY SEE
ENTIFIC COMBUSTION, GETS
MORE EFFICIENCY OUT OF
Ignite COAL THAN ANY
BODY ELSE HAS EVER DONE.
There are eight boilers, four
working now, each $50 horse
power. They run two big steam
turbine pumps at the power
house and three turbine genera
tors which supply power to the
pumps at a distance and also
light the city of Williston.
Uncle Sam employs, In his
power plant, three shifts OF men
working eight hours a day. Just

BY W. H. Auburn.

WILLISTON, N. D., Aug. 27.-
In q previous article have told
how Uncle Sam mines coal at
WillistOn cheaper than private
operators, and at the same time
pays his miners more money and
makes them more comfortable. As
evidence Of this, the entire force
of q neighbOring, privately owned
mine recently came over to the
government mine when Foreman
William Hutchinson needed more
men.
But there is anothr vital
custom in the operation of a
coal mine - the question OF
SAFETY. You may want to
know what Uncle Sam is doing
to protect the life and health oil
his miners and how he treats
them when they are injured.
First, let us take the case OF
Eric Larson, q married man,
who had his leg broken in the
Williston mine in 1911. He was
disabled for three months and q
half.
His pay had averaged
$4.72 a day, net. So Uncle
Sam calmly paid him $4.72
day during those three
months and = half, Just as If
he had kept ON working all
that time.
If Eric had paid the 81 a
month hospital Fee that is op-
tional with the men, his doctor
and hospital bills would have
been paid. too.
But now consider this re-
narkable fact. Eric's case
shows the only serious i'm
jury that has occurred In
Uncle Sans mine in five
years Of operation. There
have been no fatalities.
The mine has no explosive
gases, coal dust or fire damp.
But above and below the coal
vein is treacherous clay that
may sink or rise, closing exits
and air passages.
To avoid this danger, Uncle
Sam keeps his mine well tim
bered.

ONE PASSAGE WOULD LEAVE

distributed to provide escape

workings.

DEFIES ADVICE; AGED
MAN BURNS TO DEATH

About 2 O'Clock in the after
noon Adam Serbiache went to a
grocery store about a mile away
from the farm to get some sup
plies. Before leaving he warned
his brother not to attempt to set
fire to a certain pile of slashing.
The older man thought 1t
would not be dangerous to burn
the pile, and in his attempts to
light it he was burned.

MARKET is WEAK
IN CLOSING HOUR
Lowest Prices Made When
Downward Movement Is Re-
newed With Vigor.

| NEW YORK, NOV. 6-The under
tone Of the market wa good at the
outset today. Union Pacific opened
slightly lower, but quickly advanced
above yesterdays close. The rest OF
the active list showed small gains
with heavy buying of Reading.
Canadian Pacific and Interborough-
Metropolitan preferred gained point.
Mexican Petroleum again developed
weakness. 1t fell "a to 4514
II d. Indifference of the local
market to depression abroad per-
mitted some extension of the opening
advances. A few shares showed i'm
provement of a point. with an active
inquiry for New Haven stocks and
bonds.
Noon-Experime operations by
the bear faction indicated that the
early demand for stocks had been
satisfied. Pressure was then applied,
until the leaders receded a point or
more. When shorts had covered some
of their contracts there was no fur
ther support for the market, which
fell back further than it had ad-
yanced.
Reports that opposition to the New
Haven S67 100000 issue of debentures
had been withdrawn was the cause
of the strength of the roads securi-
ties. Bonds were steady.
