Several cases of whooping cough
are reported in the city, and word
has reached this office that some
children WIN are suffering with this
illness have been seen in public

Parents are cautioned not to permit
their children to visit public places
and not to play with other children
who are not affected with whoop-

one, appreciate the worry and SUI
fering caused when your child con-

contagious, parents cannot be too
careful in keeping their children at
home who are affected with the
whoopjns cough.

MEMBERS Of CO. c TO GET
SALARIES STARTING JULY |

Bogalusa has always been proud
of Co. G. L. N. G. and they will be
pleased to know that effective about
July /, every member of the COM
pany will receive salary as A re-
suit of the bill which just passed
Congress. The members will re-
ceive rs per cent of the salary given
members of the U. S. Army. This
means that the privates in Go. G.
will receive about S. per month,
Sergeant $3.50 per month, Second
Lieut.. $40, per month, Lieut.. $25
per month and Captain will receive
about $500 a year. There are SO
pivates and officers in the local
company and the fact that their
Importance is recognized by the U.
S. government will result in many
joining the militia.
Boealusa has an excellent oppor-
tunity of securing another company
as only 63 privates and 8 officers
are required as minimum. Pre-
paredness Is now the national slogan
and every man who has studied the
situation, appreciates the necessity
of having a larger and better mill
tia. With the number of young
able bodied men in Bogalusa another
company could be organized after
a determined campaign.

Here is sensible reasonable, bust
ness-like proposal. The country in
tends to spend $35O,OOO,OOO or perhaps
half billion dollars within one year
on preparedness, and it may be two
billions of dollars within the next five
seven or eight years, and yet it is
proceeding to do so without any def
mite plan or system or accurate knowl
edge of what is needed. 1t is not sc
very many years ago when half q
billion dollars and even $3.50, ,00(
represented the nations entire budget
for a single year and a whole session
of congress was devoted to the consid
Grafton of the manner in which il
should be expended. Now, it is pro

one purpose and that without having
decided upon a comprehensive plar
which will accomplish the objcet

LOCAL ELECTRICAL
STORES INCORPORATE

Quite an important consolidation of
two well known firms, the Liberty Elec.
trio company and the Aberdeen Elec.
trio company, has been made in the
electrical supply business in this city.
The new firm is known as the Pacific
Electric company and is located at the
corner of Heron street and Broadway,
and is composed of H. v. Reynolds,
president; A. A. Peterson, vice presi-
dent; R. F. Boettiger, secretary and
treasurer.
This means the effectiveness of two
good reliable firms combined. They
have put in very large and complete
stock of electrical goods, and occupy
one of the most favored and high class
locations in this city. This makes this
establishment the most up.to-date and
complete concern of it's kind in Grays
Harbor.
The increased business in all bran
ches of electricity makes this a very
important event in this city as by COM
bining their forces this firm will be
in a commanding position to do every
kind of work no matter how complex
or big the contract. Consolidation
seems to be the order of the business
world today and means effectiveness
and perfect organization, hence capa-
city to do work in better way.
1t will surprise most people to see
the enormous and comprehensive
lines of goods electrical carried by this
firm, in fact it can now be said that
the center of the electrical business
is practically in this one establish
ment. Each firm has hitherto enjoyed
a very enviable reputation and now
having joined forces they will be in a
better position than ever before to
serve the public.

Second-Say that you never wore

Without Preparation

Preparedness Without Preparation
There is but slight opposition in con-
gress to placing the army and navy in
condition for defensive war, should
such be forced upon the nation. In
this unanimity party lines have been
obliterated, it being generally admit
ted that the struggle in Europe has
dispelled the dream of a warless world
for some years to come.
But, in preparing for an event We
all hope to avoid, congress seems to
act without the preparation such an
important and expensive a change of
national policy should demand. No
less than five committees of congress
are working diligently to formulate
legislation which will place the coun-
try in a condition of preparedness,
working along different lines and in
most instances at cross purposes.
Among them there is absolutely no CO.
operation, coordination or unity. Not
one Of them is taking heed or con-
corning itself with what any one of
the others is doing, and none of them
is giving attention to sixth commit
tee, the ways and means committee,
which in one respect is the most i'm
portant of all, since that committee
must devise the method by which the
money is to be raised to pay for the
preparedness. This is not in criticism
of the committees themselves, but of
the system, or rather lack of it, which
makes such condition possible.
United States Senator Francis G..
Newlands alone has raised his voice
to demand a change in the system.
He has proposed that there shall be
created from the committees on mill
tary affairs and naval affairs of the
Senate and House of Representatives,
joint subcommittee of ten senators
and ten representatives who shall be
selected by these committees respect
lively, five by each, to investigate as
follows:
(a) The general subject of the ma
tional defense.
(b) The efficiency of the present or
ganization of the army and navy and
the increase of such efficiency.
(c) The ACCESSIBILITY of compulsory
service.
(d) The relation of the state militia
to the national defense.
(e) The advisability of creating a
council of national defense and it's COM
position.
81 The increase of the military and
naval schools for training officers, and
utilization for this purpose of the
schools of agriculture and mechanic
arts created under the Morrill, act.
(g) National cooperation with the
states in school training, involving the
fundamental idea of the uses of arms
for the maintenance of civil order, both
domestic and international, and not for
conquest, and the method to be adopt
ed for the incubation of such idea.
(h) The construction, equipment, and
personnel of auxiliary ships for the
navy to be used in war in aid of the
fighting ships and in peace for estab-
fishing routes of commerce and mail
to foreign countries.

lis found difficult to discover a party
issue. While the administration and
congress is Democratic, a large part
of the constructive legislation enacted
at the last session Of congress re-

side Of the house, a fact which leads
