First Company to
Take Federal Oath

The Ashland first company, Coast
Artillery Corps, is now one Of the
biggest in the state, and according
to old members is on a more substan-
tial basis and has better spirit than
any company Ashland has boasted
since the days of the war with Spain.
Seventy-eight members don uniforms
and turn out for drill, both in infan-
try tactics and artillery work, every
Friday and Monday evening. AL
though the company is now on a
peace footing as far as membership
is concerned, an active campaign is
being entered into to put it upon a
war footing in anticipation of early
service on the Mexican border. One
hundred and four men constitute a
full company and the Ashland COM
pany needs forty recruits so that a
full company of the highest physical
qualifications can be established. A
number of the young men of the vi
cinity will join tonight at the arm
ory and others may join by applying
at the armory Friday or Monday
evenings. All who join before the
18th will be entitled to full pay when
the company goes to camp at Fort
Stevens on the 18th of this month.
On this Monday evening the COM
pany will be mustered into the fed
eral service. The entire company
will take the federal oath. The oath
to be taken by the local companies,
which is required after July l under
the new federal regulations, and
which will entitle the members Of
the companies to federal pay, will
differ but slightly from the oath re-
quired now.
There will be but one or two
words difference" said Colonel Ham
mond. Our oath has always con-
tanned words calling for allegiance to
the president and the United States,
as we'll as the governor of Oregon
and the state"
Beginning July 1, 1916, all mem
bers of the militia who have sub
scribed to the required oath will re-
ceive 25 per cent of the pay of SOL
diers In the regular army of the same
grade. Unless the number of men
required under the regulations Of the
war department take the oath, the
company as a whole cannot receive
federal support. The minimum num-
ber of men in coast artillery COM
pany is forty-one, that being the
minimum number that can properly
operate the large ten-inch seacoast
cannon.
Lieutenant Shippam, regular army
officer in charge of the instruction
of the Coast Artillery of Oregon, will
Immediately begin the work of re-
cruiting four companies of Coast Ar
tillery to increase the strength of the
present Coast Artillery from eight to
twelve companies, making it a full
regiment. Companies will be formed
at Marshfield, Forest Grove, Astoria
and Tillamook.

Marlinton, w. Va, Aug S.-Many un-
usual features will figure in the trial OF
DR.. oliver A. Howard, held in connection
with the death of his wife, Frances Rob
ertson Howard. Suspicion directed
against DR.. Howard is predicated on the
theory that he killed his wife following
quarrel over equal suffrage. The first
suffrage murder If this proves correct
will have been brought to light by the
volunteer work OF several Warrington
physicians
The physicians examined the body after

SPECIAL to The washiustrn Herald

NEW YORK SALOONS
BAN PAPER "GROWLER"
High Pulp Prices Relegate Sud"
To Tin Pail.

Special to The Washington Herald
New York, Aug. 2S.-The New York
Saloonkeepers' Association has shut
down on the paper growler" After
Monday you can't walk into your ad-
jacent groggery and buy a quart in
paper to take home" They all want
to sell the beer. but they refuse to
supply the paper container
When the paper "growler" was first
introduced over a year ago, the New
York saloonkeeper could buy it at the
rate OF $40 per thousand. Beer was
cheaper then than it is now, and 1t
looked like good business to give
away penny container with a dimes
worth of suds.
But the war has raised the cost of
paper, and the portable "growler' is
now billed to the amiabIe saIoonkeep-
er at the rate of nearly cents per
pint container. The average cost of
glass in which five-cent drinks are
served is not much higher, and no
saloon has yet figured way in which
the glass goes with the drink"
| The war has made paper about as
costly as glass, and for this reason
the paper 'growler" must go. The
! portable beer cOntainer of one pint
now costs the saloon nearly two cents.
There is not two cents profit in a
pint Of draught beer Ergo. the paper
"growler" dies. SaIoonkeepers are
generous merchants but they refuse
to complicate the market scarcity of
paper. They insist that their busi-
ness is selling refreshments: not Civ
| ing away costly paper cartons.

PROSPERITY NEEDS NO
HIGH TARIFF "--DANIELS
Europe's Need After War Will Assure
Good Times.

(By the International News Seryice.) }
Waterville, Ne, Aug. 2S.-American
prosperity is not temporary and will not
end with the war, Secretary of the Navy
Daniels said in his speech here tonight.
He said in part:
For half a century the stand-pat ora
tors have been denying that prosperity
could exist except under the reign of a
Republican high protective tariff. We
have prosperity, greater and more widely
diffused than ever before, and never again
can the stand-pat orator claim high tariff
and prosperity are one and inseparable.
To-day, the people, having been given
glance at the world of fair trade, and
having found that prosperity was the
creature of no particular creed or party.
are forever emancipated from the fear
that sensible tariff reduction. such as was
incorporated in the Underwood-Sim
tariff act, will work injury to any legiti-
mate business or cause the reduction of
the wage schedule anywhere.
Nobody today dares to promise to re-
store the old Aldrich schedules. They
were framed by the benefCiaries Of the
schedules. In 1912 the Democrats and
Progressives united in opposing that high
tariff wall.
1T took Europe fifty years to come to
normal production after the close Of the
Napoleonic war. Read the history Of all
devastating wars, and even wars of short
duration. Its people depend for decade
upon other countries, and when the Euro
pean war closes this country will be
strained to supply the implements and
machinery and other instTUmentalities TO
aid in rehabilitating its destroyed or di-
verted Industries of peace
