HOBSON WILL SPEAK
NEXT TUESDAY NIGHT
Noted Temperance Advocate Will
Deliver Lecture on america in
War" at College Auditorium

Next Tuesday evening, October 8,
Pullm an people will have the oppor-
tunity of hearing a man who has won
a national reputation as prohibit
ton orator. Congressman Richard
p. Hobson Of Alabama is the man
and he will deliver an address at the
college auditorium on America in
War" Mr.. Hobson is lecturing
under the auspices of the Anti-Saloon
league and the lecture will be free
to the public.
The name of Hobson has become a
household word throughout the
American nation. His daredevil
heroism at Santiago in the Spanish
American war, when, with few like
minded comrades, he sank the Mer-
rimac under fire of both the Spanish
fort and fleet, first brought him to
the attention of the American people.
With no less patriotic self-abandOn
he has served his county as congress
man from Alabama, his native state.
From his first entrance upon the
halls of congress, he has bravely and
persistently pressed the question OF
prohibition upon the attention OF
congress and also the entire country,
HobsOn is an orator of extraordinary
ability and has frequently addressed
congress upon the urgent Importance
of prohibiting the liquor traffic
nation wide. Upon the same theme
he has spoken from almost every
noted Chautauqua platform in Amer
lea. and his published temperance
addresses have been scattered over
the nation by the ton.
No man has made a more exhaust
i've scientific study of alcohol and the
appalling effects of the drink habit
on the human race, as traced through
the pages of history, than has Rlch-
mond Pearson Hobson.
His mastery address, THE Great
DESTROYER" and Destroying the
Great Destroyer" have been dellV-
cred in every quarter of the United
States. and in printed form have been
scattered from coast to coast. They
are among the most terrific arraign-
ments of the curse of strong drink
,,ver delivered on the American
platform.
The theme upon which Captain
Hobson is now speaking is America
in War" This address is attracting
even a wider attention than the form
er ones.

'itN Council Eliminates Item Calling
Tor $1,000 Cemetery Fund and
increases Estimated Receipts

As Il result of the activities of a
committee from the chamber of COM
merce the city council Tuesday night
Topped approximately $1,000 from its
budget OF expenses for the year 1918,
leVylng a municipal tax of 241a mills
as against 26-mill levy as proposed
In its preliminary budget. AS a pro-
posed substitute for the budget pre-
pared by the council. which called
for a total of $26,S10 to be raised
by taxation on municipal assessed
valuation of $1,04O,00O, the chamber
OF commerce committee offered a
budget which totaled only $4,000 to
be raised by taxation, or a proposed
reduction in the tax levy to fraction
under 20 mills.
The discussion on the budget was
spirited and clashes between the
councilmen and committee members
were frequent. The council approved
the recommendation that the item
calling for $1,000 to start a fund to-
ward the purchase of the South Side
cemetery be dropped, and increased
the total of estimated receipts for the
year something over $500, fixing the
levy definitely at "a q mills, or / p
mills greater than the levy of last
year. This levy will probably raise
slightly under the sum total of esti-
mated expenditures as included in
the budget as approved, and slight
adjustments will have to be made to
meet the deficiency.
The chamber of commerce commit
tee proposed that the item of $500
for the salary of the street commits
sioner be eliminated and that that Of
fetal be included with the city en-
gineer in the $500 salary appor-
toned to that officer, but this change
was refused by the council. A pro-
posed reduction of 1855 in the $4,000
estimate for street lights and $400
less for street and sidewalk material
also failed to meet with the approval
of the city fathers.
The chamber of com merce commit
tee proposed to reduce the estimate
for park labor from $500 to $500, OF
sewer labor from $1,000 to $500

1;S-Team Looks Good

The Washington State College
football team Will clash with the Of
fcers' team of Camp Lewis in the
Tacoma stadium Saturday, October
10, in their initial public appearance
of the season. Coach DietZ does not
underestimate the strength of the ag-
gregation of army officers, most of
whom have had big college expert
ence, and did not favor the schedul-
ing of the game so early in the sea-
son. but finally acquiesced and an
nounces that he will take % men. if
that many are available, on the trip
to the Coast.
1--WE will take no chances OF in
iuries against the seasoned army
men" said Coach DietZ, but will
send substitutes into the fray as fast
as our regulars show signs OF fatigue
or injury. The result of the
Marine-California game proves that
the army and navy teams are made
M of bunch of former stars, pow
erful and seasoned, and We are meet
ing the Camp Lewis eleven for the
excellent practice it will afford rath-
or than through the expectancy OF
victory"
More than ordinary local interest
will be attached to the game through
the presence in the army lineup OF
two former State College stars
"Jumbo' Hunter and Tommy
Tvrer. Wee Coyle and Everett May
also former shining lights in North
west conference football, will also
play against the collegians, as well
as several Middle West stars.
The Camp Lewis team is coached

man of several years coaching ex-
perience.
.The prospects for winning team
al the State College look brighter
every day" said Coach Dietz IN sum

StatcrS to Meet Fast Army Team

ming up the local football situation
Forty men are now turning out, al
though half of them are first year
men and ineligible for conference
competition. All the old mon are in
good shape physically and should
stand the hard practice necessary to
get them properly seasoned for the
big Oregon game in good shape We
have lots of backfield material, ex-
cept for the quarterback position, of
a light but fast calibre. Several
places in the line must be plugged
up with last years second stringers.'
The practice so far has been pure
ly of a preliminary nature, including
leap frog, running, falling on the
ball, charging and tackling. Coach
Dietz expects to line his men up for
the first time for actual scrimmage
Saturday, when he will give them
their first play, adding to the roper
tore from day to day.
Six members of last years first
team responded to the first call of
Coach William H. Dietz for football
candidates this week Last years
letter men who have returned in
clude Captain Clarence Zimmerman,
who is almost certain to land an end
position; Silas Sites, guard; Walter
Herreid, tackle; Roy Hanley, end and
half; Basil Doane fullback, and
Hamilton, guard. Digger" Boone,
last years substitute backfield man,
is also out in suit, as is Glen GLOW
er. a substitute back field man of
two years ago who showed prom Use.
Kienholz, who last year showed signs
of developing into first rate punter
and kicker, is the only candidate for
quarterback who has put in an APP
pearance.
Lyon, understudy to Center Lang
don last year, is back on the job.
Coach Dietz points to Lyon as one
of the most promising men of last
years substitutes and he will I'M
doubtedIy be found at the pivotal
position when the first game is
played. Sorenson and Price of last
years varsity basket ball squad, also
reported to Coach Dietz this week.

registration of voters from 500 to
$40. and miscellaneous expenses from
$500 to $400, which, with the
$1,000 for cemetery fund recon-
mended to be dropped entirely,
would have reduced the total esti-
mated current expense from $19,6S0
to $15,635. The $1,000 item for a
cemetery fund, however, was the
only item dropped or reduced by the
council in the current expense list,
leaving the estimated current ex-
penses for 1918 at S1S,6S0.
The figures for estimated receipts
presented by the chamber of COM
merce totaled 1851, as against esti-
mated receipts of $3.50 included in
the cOuncilmanic budget. The prin-
cipal difference was in the item in
the chamber budget of $4,000 from
the profits of the water system, with
which the council proposed to estab-
fish a sinking fund to take care of
the city's general Indebtedness from
year to year. The council refused to
take cognizance of this suggestion,
however, increasing the estimated re-
ceipts from all sources only slightly
over $500, including the telephone
franchise tax of $30O, which had
been omitted from the councilmaniC
budget but included in the chamber
OF commerce figures.
The recapitulation of the budget
as approved by the council is as
