REFORM MAYOR
WILL SHAKE UP
QUAKER CITY
# PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 11 (by Asso
ciated Press).—Many changes in the
city government became effective with
the induction into office of Mayor J.
Hampton Moore. They were author
ized at the last session of the legis
lature.
The fegislative authority passes into
ti»e hands of twenty-one councilmen,
organized into a single body, each
member being paid $5,000 a year. This
council takes the place of the old two
chamber council of unsalaried mem
bers.
Holding of more than one salaried
office by one man is absolutely pro
hibited.
All city employes are required to
cease political activity. They are for
bidden to solicit or pay political as-|
sessments, voluntarily or involunta
rily.
The city has acquired the power to
do its own paving, repairing and clean
ing of streets, collecting of ashes,
garbage, waste and rubbish, and dis
posing thereof. This is not compul
sory, however, as it still may be done
(r 1
by contract.
Mayor Moore for years represented
a. Philadelphia district in congress.
Effected on a reform ticket, he has
promised to revolutionize methods and
do away with the old “gang.” Already
he has shaken up the police-, and
served notice upon thieves, pedlars of
habit-forming drugs, bookmakers,
gamblers and the underworld gener-'
ally that they must get out of the
city. Protected vice will not exist as
long as he is mayor of Philadelphia,
he has declared.

Prominent in the membership of
the new council is William W. Roper,
famous as a Princeton football coach.

WE ARE THE LARGEST DEALERS IN RAW AND MANUFACTURED
FURS IN THE NORTHWEST, and all we ask of you, Mr. Shipper, is to give
us the chance of a trial shipment and we will convince you that we pay more
for furs and make quicker returns than you can get anywhere in the country.
We have been jn business in Alaska for 36 years and have built up a very
extensive trade. We sell manufactured furs in all parts of the United States.
Canada, and in a great many European cities.
By shipping to us jrou are not only helping an Alaska industry but you are*
helping yourself to build up a business that belongs to Alaska.
We eliminate the middleman entirely, as we buy direct from the trapper and
trader and sell direct to the consumer; thus we are able to pay you a better
price than you can get elsewhere. WE MAKE RETURNS THE SAME DAY
SHIPMENT IS RECEIVED.
If so desired, when your shipment amounts to $100 or more, we will wire our
bid, and if not entirely satisfactory you may wire at our expense and we^ will
ship to any place you designate.
All we ask of you is to be fair with yourself as well as with us, and make us
a trial shipment; the result will make you a steady shipper.
