COUPLE

(From the Portland, (~Selwood) Oregon, Bee.)
Last Sunday evening at $3.50
o'clock a very pretty wedding &C.
Cured at the home of Mr.. and Mrs.
F. w Carroll, at 1876 Leo avenue,
when their daughter, Miss ldona
Isabel, was given in marriage to
Mr.. Sidney Austin Hatcher, of Pres
colt, Oregon. Rev. ], K. Hawkins
was the officiating clergyman.
The bride was beautifulin a gown
Of White duchess satin, overdraped
with silk shadow lace with pearl
trimmings. Her bridal veil was
held in place by a wreath Of orange
blossoms and she carried a shower
bouquet Of brides roses. The only
jewelry she wore was a diamond
and pearl necklace, a gift from the
groom.
The bridesmaid was Miss Lucille
Carroll, sister of the bride, who was
handsomely gowned in Nile green
satin overdraped with silk shadow
lace, and carried a bouquet of pink
carnations.
r. B.. Brown accompanied the
groom.
The ring ceremony was used, lit
tie Annie Louise Shaffer being ring
bearer, and presented the ring in a
white Gala lily. While Wayne Car
roll played the wedding march, ac-
companied with a violin by Miss
Rotha Carroll, the bridal party ap-
preached a bower of ferns, studded
with white roses, when the cere-
mony which declared them husband
and wife was beautifully consum-
mated.
The bride was given away by her
father.
The decorations were white roses,
ferns and smilax.
A buffet luncheon was served
from the dining room.
Thirty-six guests were present,
including only relatives and near
friends.
The out-of-town guests were Mrs.
w Hatcher. and Walter and Nat
Hatcher, of Tacoma, mother and
brothers of the groom.
The bride was the recipient of
many very pretty and useful pres
ents, evidence of the many friends
she has among her acquaintances.
After a short wedding tour Mr.

in Prescott, where he is manager
for a lumber company.
The bride is another one of Sell

wife, and the Bee extends to them
its best wishes and most f~elicitous

Usually ABOUT a dozen are invited

man who failed to secure the presi-
dency at the Baltimore convention.
Bryan made a savage attack on the
Tammany organization supporting
Clark and Clark was beaten when
fortune seemed to smile upon him.
Of couse this IS political history,
but it is not so generally known
that the one man in the whole world
whom Clark cordially detests is the
man who wrought his downfall in
that convention and who by coinci-
dence was himself a defeated candi-
date three times. Clark is admired
by all members irrespective Of poll.

WASHINGTON LETTER
FROM JAMES a. FREkR, MEMBER or
CONGRESS, 10Th DISTRICT

Washington, d c., Nay 20, 1914
Preceded by several genuine ap
paaring hoboes and a small boy
riding a jack, together witha dilap:-
dated looking individual footing .
bugle ahead of an ~unshaven snare
drummer, Coxey's army reached
Washington last Thursday. Gen
ersl" Coxey had marched with his
army" from Ohio, speaking at
many different points along the
cute A serious looking business
man plainly dressed assembled the
Capitol steps and launched forth
his ideas to the tvs Or three hun
drcd people drawn by curiosity to
hear him Several Representatives,
a sprinkling of policemen, three
moving picture machines and a
group of photographers were also
on hand to hear the speech. Con
trary to expectations, it consisted
Of a p|rosaic presentation Of legis-
lation he desired to have passed
for the unemployed, including pro.
posals for the issuance of Govern
ment scrip 10 be loaned to individu-
ais at 2 per cent, also giving to
communities the right TO issue non
interest bonds and urging the Gov
ernment to acquire ownership in
public utilities.
His proposal to give employment
to idle men by furnishing labor on
public improvements is somewhat
similar in character to the plans Of
Labor Commissioner Wilson, al
though more specific in character.
Twenty years ago Coxey was jailed
as a disturber for walking on the
grass with his army but last week
he excited no attention, met with
no demonstration and talked undis
turbed. Nothing violent or anar-
chistic was proposed by him and
his views may be the law of the
land in some modified form before
another twenty years rolls around,
Judging by the way the world moves.

rected to make investi2 atoms into

port its findings to the President to
be used by him as a basis for rec
concentrations to Congress. Cor

WOULD ABOLISH ALL
LOCAL ASSESSMENTS
Administrative Board Repeats Its
RECON- e ndation to the City Coun-
ell ON This Subject.

The Administrative Board adopted 4
resolution yesterday renewing it's
accommodation to the Council that it
abolish all ordinances assessing prop
erty owners for city improvements.
The. same recommendation has been
made by the board To the Council At
least once before, but has received no
attention: The resolution adopted by
the board follows:
Resolved. That the Administrative
Board repeats TO the City Council
through the Mayor the boards recon-
mendation that the Council proceed to
repeal all ordinances in reference to
assessments for special improvements
which will include paving alleys. paw
ing sidewalks. sewer connections and
all other matters which are charged
to property owners in the form of
special assessments for public improve
ments."
The income from all charges OF this
character. il is stated, does not exceed
$4,000 year Their assessment and
collection often give rise to friction
between the property owners and the
city. 1t is the belief Of the board
that the abolition OF all charges for
public improvements would be pro-
gressive piece of legislation.

SEEKS ADJUSTMENT
OF FREIGHT RATES
Chairman Travis Holding Conference
With Trnfiic Managers OF HOnds
Entering North Carolina.

Especial to The Times Dispatchl
Raleigh. y. G., July 6.-chairman +.
l.. Travis. of the North Carolina Cor
poration Commission. was in Ashcvillc
to-day III conference with the traffic
managers of the railroad companies
that do interstate freight business in
this state. with view to adjusting n
number of discrepancies between the
details of the compromise interstate
rates that were agreed upon by the
railroad companies and the State au-
thorities and accepted by the special
session of the Legislature and the
published schedules. of these railroad
companies, placed in effect June 20.
These differences are In some minor
matters. and there Is no anticipation
OF any serious complications In bring
Ing about the adjustment.
Chairman Travis will also take up
with the Chesapeake and Ohio Railway
Company and possibly the Norfolk and
Western the matter of a change in the
rules governing freight on grain in
transit and grain products. whereby it
appeared to the North Carolina COM
missionerS that the railroad companies
had changed the rule to the dctriment
of the interests of the North Carolina
dealers since the adoption of the re
duced interstate rates. 1t was first
announced that tho Norfolk and West
ern had changed the rule just as the
Chesapeake and Ohio had. but It now
appears that this is not the case.
Chairman Travis expects TO remain
in Asheville this week TO be AT the
hearings before the Interstate freight
commission, Judge Justice. chairman,
Which is TO hold the final hearings as
to the reasonableness Of tho reduced
rates prescribed by the Justice act of
the special Legislature, and to declare
