WELFARE OF CITY IS
MENACED SAYS SOLON

Like playing with the lives and
health of the people of the city," is
the way the fight in the Salem coun-
ell by several of the eouncilmen
against the council police committee,
was characterized today by Council
man Won Esehen, chairman of the
health and police committee, when he
intimated that an effort would be
made at the meeting of the council
Monday night to chop off the head of
the deputy health officer.
That this condition of things can
not last long, was the opinion express
ed by Councilman Won Esehen. 1t is
his belief that the limit of endurance
on the part of the people of the city
has about beon reached.
The health and police committed

men E. c. Minton ard j. f.. Jones, on
the one side, and the police committee
on the other, he frankly admitted
" Everything proposed by the police
committee" he asserted, "has met
with the opposition of those two men
and their followers. Our work is be-
ing crippled and the health and safety
of the city endangered by the petty
spite work of these disgruntled cOun
cilmen."
Councilman Won Fschen stated that
the present fight began before the city
Officers were elected for the year. He
alleged there was schme on part OF
alleged there was a scheme on part Of
the whole list of city Officers, saying
that at the time the city officers were
being discussed he, with Councilmer
Cummings and Presnall, who now form
the police and health committee, met
with COuncilmen Jones, Minton, Ne
Cracken, Hoover, and McClelland in
secret caucus.
At one of these meetings Council
man Jones, SO Mr.. Won Eschen stated
brought in a slate of the city officers
which he had chosen. Councilmen
Cummings, PreGnall and Won Esche1
objected TO some of the men named or
this slate as being entirely unfit tC

Mr.. Jones' An angry discussion fol
lowed.
As chance would have it, wher
Mayor Sleeves appointed his commit
tees, later he selected Won Eschen
PreSnall and Cummings on the police
committee. 1t was then, Councilman
Won Eschen declares, that the figh
on the police committee began. III
said that Councilman Minton openly
declared that he would oppose any
thing and everything, good or bad
that this police committee had to d,
with. Ever since then there has beer
bitter war.

That he had any intention of using
government money in connection with

was that but for delay in a payment

LAUNCH IN WHICH THEY WHICH
THEY WERE PICKING UP MINES
FOUNDERS IN COLUMBIA.

Fort Stevens, Or, May corporal
Klempke and Private Price, Of the
Thirty-fourth company, Coast artillery
corps, are dead today as the result Of
drowning when the launch in which
they were picking up mines foundered
in the lower Columbia river. Musician
Hoenig, Private Smith and Private
Decker, also occupants of the boat,
were rescued with difficulty.
Under orders of Lieutenant Conley,
commanding the mine planter, the men
put out in heavy weather in a launch
that is said to have been leaking. BY
bailing, the soldiers kept the craft
afloat, but when they picked up a dis
tribution box and some heavy cable,
it began to settle and finally sank.
Sergeant Simmons, in yawl, reached
the scene in few minutes and rescued
Hoenig, Smith and Decker, but Klemp-
ke and Price had disappeared beneath
the water. Their companions had sup
ported them until weakened by cold,
when they were compelled to relin-
quish their hold.

TWO SOLDIERS DROWNEDW|LL TALK GOOD ROADS
PROMOTERS OF BOND ISSUE PLAN
TO HOLD BOOSTER MEETING AT
THEATER TOMORROW.

Saturday will be Good Roads day at
Salem. Governor West will preside at
two great public meetings to be held at
the grand opera house, at which the
ablest and most prominent opponents
Of permanent highways will address the
citizens Of Salem and Marion county.
The afternoon meeting will be at 2
o'eloek and the evening meeting at
5 D. m. The ladies are specially in
vited.
The speakers include Sam w. Hill, a
man Of International reputation, who
is spending his large income promoting
good roads. Those who have never
heard Mr.. Hill should make it a point
to be present. His life and gospel are
an inspiration to any American citizen.
Chief Engineer Lancaster, who viii
speak, is one of the greatest highway
engineers in the world, and is at pres
ent engaged in building scenic high
why up the Columbia river that will
put Switzerland and Italy out of com.
mission as competing for American
tourist travel. Another speaker will
be Sam Jackson of the Portland Jour
nal. He and other public spirited men
of Portland are giving their time and
money to good roads promotion. He is
one of the wittiest speakers in Oregon.
Another speaker will be plain Farmer
Terrace of King county, Washington.
He will tell the farmers the advantages
of hard surface highways in the coun.
try. Laboring men should be interest
ed in this proposition to cxpend near
ly million dollars in highway con-
struction in Marion county. They should
attend these meetings and become good
roads enthusiasts, as they always do
when they understand the question.
This is not a rich mans proposition,
for he frequently objects to paying
more taxes for any big public inn
provement.
The County Campaign.
A large and enthusiastic good roads
rally was held last night at Sublimity,
where Henry Downing, Seymore Jones
and Judge Scott delivered addresses.
About two hundred were present, in a
community that has spent money libcr-
ally for hardsurface highway. Sublim-
ity knows what good roads are and
wants more Of them. The speakers were
very favorably received. All the qucs.
tions asked showed friendly interest.
Meetings are being held every night in
various parts of the county, and the
general committee is taxed to the ut
most to supply speakers. Sentiment is
changing very rapidly in Marion coun-
ty in favor of joining the progressive
movement
