former secretary of war, was named
led States district court here. will de-
pend on the present excellent physical
condition of the road and the property
which he thinks is returning TO the
country to rehabilitate the corpora
ton while the court affords it protec-
ton from the creditors. He made his
statement to newspaper men, Contin-
uing, he said:
"A receivership was the only alter
native we had in the circumstances.
Under it we will probably spend more
money on the road than we did III
the previous six months. We have an
undue proportion of cars in bad order,
a fact which assisted in bringing on
the crisis With increasing general
traffic in sight we will spend more
money on equipment.
Il have absolutely declined to let
the property run down, which is an
other reason why we ran, or were will
ingly conducted, into court.
mo better selection than Judge
Dickinson could have been made to
| represent the court in the receivership.
He has the deciding voice and I am
sure that there will be no more drastic
economy.
The receivership, I believe, will be
| of short duration, if the road is en-
ab1ed to obtain it's share of prosperity.
The Rock Island is the largest railroad
ever placed in the hands of the receiv-
ers and it is in better physical condi-
ton than any road ever placed in a
similar predicament.
The real underlying trouble with
our road is the same as with all other
railroads and they will all in time
find themselves in our fix if this fun
damenta1 trouble is not eliminated.
That trouble is the governments atti-
tude toward railroads; we must have
higher rates and lower costs. Happily,
however, there are signs that the pub
lie attitude is changing and the rail-
roads may hope for fewer handica ps."
Amster Denounces Action.

of Boston, a Rock Island director, who
represented a large number of share
holders at the recent annual meeting.
has issued a statement denouncing the
action putting the Rock Island into
the hands of receivers, which he de-
clared was unnecessary. He said he
would apply to the courts to vacate
the receivership on the ground that
there was no proper consent by the
management of the company.

Topeka next Monday and Tuesday, has
risen to her present enviable position
solely through her own efforts. She
was nobody's protege; unlike her dis
tinguished countrywoman, Christine
Nilsson, she had no wealthy benefactor
to pick her up and provide means for
her musical education; she educated
herself, from her own resources, OBJ
tanned by work and courage.
I She came with her Swedish parents
to America and settled in Boston, at
the age of 10. There she secured her
entire musical education, except for
some outside coaching by the promi-
nent Swedish composer, Patterson
Berger.
One of her first Boston engagements
was as sopranist in one of the church
choirs. Following her appearance
gear or ago with the St Louis
Symphony orchestra, she was the
guest of honor at a private dinner,
where she met, among others, a gen.
tleman from the east, who was very
enthusiastic over her voice. To a friend
he said, Il know of only one voice
like hers, and that was the priceless
possession of a soprano in DIR. Cor
don's church in Boston, wheer l al
ways went when in that city just to
hear her sing.
''Whereupcn the friend exclaimed,
why, my dear Mr.. Blank, it is the
very same soprano; Miss Sundelius
used to sing at that church.
Returning to Sweden to visit rela-
tives some time ago. Miss Sundelius
voice attracted so much attention that
King Oscar II expressed a desire to
hear her, but unfortunately, when the
royal summons came she was several
part of Sweden, and thus missed the
distinction.

COUNCIL MAKES
A GOOD MOVE

The city council. at its meeting
Wednesday night. put into effect a
measure which the Examiner has
been advocating for several years
that Of consolidating the offices of
city clerk and police Judge. The
council also went a step further and
passed an ordinance making the clerk
the collector and book-keeper for
the city water system.
The ordinance making the clerk
ex-oficio police Judge prescribes that
the salary of 400 a year. which il
now paid to the police Judge, shall
be paid to the clerk, which will make
his salary S400 year. In addition
the ordinance says he shall also re-
tain all fees received by him when
acting in all preliminary examina.
tions for the state of Idaho.
The ordinance making the clerk
collector for the water system, fixes
his salary as such officer at $40 q
month, which will make q total Of
$3.50 year for that official.
The ordinance also provides that
the clerk shall have his office at the
place where the business of the cit,
is transacted and shall keep said offics
open from 8 o'clock .. m. until nool
and from 100 to s o'clock D. m
every day except Sundays and lega
holidays.
The ordinances will be published
next week, but they will not go int
effect until the first Tuesday In Ma.
of this year.
| Another thing this council shoull
do and that ID increase the salary o
the city treasurer. At present tha
official is receiving the measley sur
of $50 a year. and we consider 1t q
outrage to ask a man to do the wor
of that Office for such q pittance
