AX IDEA OP SEGREGATION. ,HS. A. C. FISK, nt tho annual meeting of the Federation of Women's Clubs hi Rochester, urged a concorted movemont to com pel the nowspapers to print tho stories of crime, elopements and divorcee all upon one page. In this way, she said, thq page could bo ripped out so that tho wicked and the disagreeable things of llfo would not reach tho eyes of children. Mrs. Fisk takes a new shoot In the crltlolsm of nowspapers. She doos not urgo, as many locturors are fond of urging, that reports of orlines should not bo published at nlj. ny Inforonco she admits that grown-up folk find Intorost In such news. After tho elders have shud dered to their satisfaction, have commented upon the foolishness of Miss Doe who eloped With the pen niless Mr. Roe, and upon the want of felicity In tho Coe family, the paper can be carefully operated upon but not until after. Commendation for Mrs. Fisk rises in our hearts. She does not de nounce tho newspapers for printing that which the public In general Is Interested In. It would seem she appreciates the fact that when the press ceases to print tho happenings of tho day as they occur, tho press might just as well begin dismantling Its machinery. Still another difficulty looms up to confront the adoption of Mrs. FIsk's idea. If she ripped off a page of Tho Times there wouldn't be enough left to print tho good nows. As a matter of fact though it isn't tho view of our critics tho per centngo of i'ems dealing with crime and scandals is small as compared with tho rest of tho news. It has been pioved by cold statistics. Yet this is Incidental. We merely seek tho prlvllego of applauding Mrs. Fisk. Sho indicates tho line of de markatlon between what sho would icad and what sho would let the children read. And that Is a frank ness our censors hn've nover displayed. THE DOCTOR AND THIAMINE. SEVEN TIMES Dr. L. B. Howe went down tho burning shaft of tho mlno nt Cherry, and each tlmo brought back suffocating, half dead men; seven times, until It were no longer possiblo to descend through tho flro and fumes and until his hands wero but masses of blls . teis. He had saved 25 lives. Onco In n while stories nro told of doctors who have refused to attend 'patients until shown tho color of 'money. Such Instances aro so In ' frequent that they stand out ns star tling blemishes upon the profession, are gossiped and rotnlled and exag gerated. And yet If all sohools bred so many men who mako porsonal sacrifices, who practice charity with so little ostentation, and count so many real horoos to tholr orodlt as tho medical collogos, would one henr thon, wo wonder, discussions of tho success or failure of univer sity training? A FEW PLAIN SUGGESTIONS TO OBSTRUCTIONISTS its-jHE Capital 'Journal and Its own- er have done as much for tho development of the state. Wo think we have a right to beg that certain obstruction practice be minimized and that obstructors change front. For instance, the men in Salem who voted against acquiring Fair mount Park wero sincere but struck progress a cruel blow. Killing the1 project to get that beautiful park hurt the capital city because it showed ow people aro divided on progress. It advertised us to the world as a divided people and tho value of all real estate and tho growth of Salem wero hurt. Tho same Is true of Coos Bay, when prominent factors array them selves against harbor and railroad development. In Salem any railroad that wants to come Into tho city or get out of it is simply nsked where It wants to lay Its tracks. This city imposes no conditions ex cept that work shall begin within a certain tlmo and shall proceed in good faith. The Harrlman lines recently tried to extend from Yaqulma to Newport, tho popular summer resort of West ern Oregon. Many tha.t had right-of-way Imme diately asked prices that were pro hibitive, and tho city of Newport had a strong element that opposed al lowing the railroad to como down the wnterfront. Of course, under such conditions, all efforts to Invest money, In devel opment work stops, nnd railroad managers simply quit. Tho costliest luxury any town can have Is a spirit of getting busy to stop things that aro coming along In tho natural way. Lot us all get on tho progressive bnnd-wngon and Oregon will become a perfect paradise of Industry and opportunity. Capital Journal. Willi tlie Toast and Tea ji . GOOD EVENING.
