THE DEl'OT AGAIN'.
if May Vet Frnvo Exiicnsive to
1 the City.
The engineers began laying out
the ground for the new depot this
morning, and setting the stakes for
the change in the siding.
The new building will be erected
about fifty feet south of where the
old one stood, and will be a two
4tory, handsome building. A plat
form five hundred feet in length
anil eighteen feet wide will extend
along the track from the depot the
building being at the center of the
platform.
There 1ms, iu the years gone by,
ken a great deal of kicking by peo
ple who have had occasion to come
into and go out of the city on the
Turner load which crossed the
track, by courtesy of the railroad
company, just south of the depot, at
delay occasioned by trains standing
on the crossing, and, a day or two
since, some plucky granger drove
upon the switcli crossing directly
in front of the yard locomotive,
which was approaching, threaten
in" to stay there until that train
standing n the main track, and
blocking the crossing, should "get
out of the way" and let him pass.
He thought better of it, however, as
the yard engine continued to move
towards him, and he drove oil' the
track, and, simply following in the
footsteps of the lamented "Wllkins
Jlicauber, proceeded to "wait for
something to turn up," or for the
train to get out of his way.
These travelers o'er the road, and
very likely a great many citizens of
Salem, will bo surprised to learn
that this crossing has only been al
lowed to exist through the courtesy
of the railroad company, and that
theie is no public street or highway
between State and Leslie street (the
latter not opened), and between 12th
and 14th streets.
Ordinance No. 74, approved
August 9th, 1870, reads as follows :
"Be it ordained by the Common
Couucil of the city of Salem, That
the streets and alleys included in the
following description, to-wit: All of
the alleys in blocks Nos. 43, 44, 45,
48 and 40; Thirteenth street between
blocks 43, 4-1, 45,40, 49 and 50; Oak
"treat betw eon blocks 40 and 49, and
4-5 and 50; Bellevue street between
blocks Nos. 44 and 45, and 43 and 40,
all in the University addition of the
utj of siaieni, be and are hereby va
cated, the same to be and form a
part of the depot grounds of the
Oregon and California Railroad
Company; provided, that the prin
cipal depot for the city of Salem
tliall lie located on said grounds by
said company."
The new platform at the depotwill
lompletely shut oil' this crossing,
and will compel the seeking of
.mother route into the city, probably
via 14th street to State and in that
ay. Having the welfare of the
tity of Salem ever uppermost in his
thoughts and work, and desiring
that the tax payers of the city
should know all that was worth
knowing concerning the matter, the
writer made an eye survey of what
will probably be the nowhigliway
into the city from the southeast,
tills morning.
Fourteenth street is the eastern
most street running north andsouth,
now open iu the city. The part
that will come into proniinence.now,
is that portion lying between SUito
and Oak streets tho Turner road
whig the extension of Oak street.
Hiding over, this piece of roadway
tills morning, the writer found that,
although it shows signs of being
traveled slightly, it was in very bail
audition, and in no way suited, in
its present state, for heavy trnille.
tjoing south from Stato street, the
Hdew al k cross! ng is about twel vo or
mtecn inches higher than tho road
Kfaue; the road bed is fairly good,
although rough to Ferry street,
where it crosses the oil mill race,
"lis bridge is old, out of repair, and
"w-siiot appear safe at all. Two
V;lir "''erts, or small bridges,
Jartlu r out on the street are also in
'u repair, and, unless some means
uy be devised for turning all the
J"tcr that usually pours over this
"at in waiter, into one of the num
4r;us channels of Mill creek, much
"'the road way from Oak to Mill
't will prove "dangerous navi
jMtii.n" In winter. A good doal of
"ru-h, a stump or two and other
"Mrtntlons iu the road will have to
taken out, and, in fuot, a good
"1 of work will havo to bo done
nt money expended to put Fonr
'itu street in a sulllciontly
l state of repair to
"II accommodate the travel ub
" to the Turner road.
. Another improvement that should
made, and a long suffering public
is anxious that "if it were done, it
were clone quickly," and that the
city couucil will "get In," and push
.ui.i , w-Nii; construct a tle
eont sidewalk to and from State
street to a point opposite the depot
on 12th street, where the railroad
company agree to loin with n walk
to the depot. This has been de
sired by the traveling public for lo,
these many years. Now that the
iuiuuuu company agrees to erect a
JUll? UUW IIIMHII. lllIllfllllfT ,11111 tn -..
it "right exactly where tho dear
in.-uinu m oiiieiu want ii," it eems
they might come up and construct a
decent sidewalk to at least let our
visitors walk down town on.

Women in Huslm-i-s
Iii this ago of extremo activity
and wonderful development, it is a
noteworthy fact that many women
have made their own way In mer
cantile life, and successfully com
pete with men In many lines of
business. Women, whether they
labor iu the household or in tho
store, are all liable to suffer from
functional derangements and tho
cares ot maternity. For all troubles
known under the catgory of "fe
male weaknesses," Dr. Pierce's Fa
vorite Prescription is a tonic and
tried specific. It lelieves t lie great
est sufferers, and restores tho patient
to vigorous health and strength. It
is tho only medicine for women, sold
by druggists, under a positive guar
antee, from tho manufacturers, that
it will give satisfaction in every
case, or money will be refunded.
This guarantee has been printed on
the bottle-wrapper and faithfully
carried out for many years.

tion, biliousness, sick headache, bil
ious headache, and all derangements
of the stomach, liver and bowels.

A Woman's Discover.
"Another wonderful discovery hus
been made and that too by a lady in
tills county. Disease fastened its
clutches upon her ami for seven
years she withstood its severest tests,
but lior vital organs were under
mined and death seemed imminent.
For three months she coughed inces
santly and could not sleep. Mio
bought of us a bottle of Dr. King's
New Discovery for Consumption and
was so much relieved on taking
first dose that slie slept all night and
with one bottle has been miraculous
ly cured. Her namo is Mrs. Luther
Lutz." Tims writes AV. C. Hamrick
& Co., of Sliolby, N. C. Got a free
trial bottle at II. W. Cox's drug
store.

Tho young man fell dead I
A friend had pointed a revolver at
him.
"Bo didn't know it was loaded I"
We often hear it stated that a man
is not responsible for what ho doe3
not know. Tho law presupposes
knowledge and therefore convicts tho
marJ who uxcuses crime bv ignoranco I
If 1 had only known" has often
been an unfortunate man's apology
for some ovil unknowingly wrought,
but in a matter of general interest
nsfor instaiico that laudanum is a
poison, that naphtha is a deadly ox
plosivo, that blood heavily charged
with a winter's accumulations of tho
wnsto of tho system, it is one's duty
to know tho fact and tho conse
quences thereof. Our gotd old grand
mothers knew for illQ mm flint l,r
opening of spring was the most
penlous period of tho year.
Because then tho blood stream is
sluggish and chilled by tho cold
weather, and if not thinned a good
ileal and niado to flow quickly and
healthfully throuph the arteries and
veins, it is impossible to haro good
vigor tho rest of tho yoar. Hence,
without exception,, uhat is now
known as Warner's Log Cabin Sarsa
parilla, was plentifully mado and
religiously given to every membor of
tho family regularly through March,
April, May and Juno. It is a matter
of record that this prudontinl, pre
ventive and restorativo custom saved
many a fit of sickness, prolonged life
and happiness to a vigorous old nge,
and did away with heavy medical
expenditures.
Mrs. Maggie Kerehwal, Lexington.
Ky., used AVarnor's Log Cabin Sarsa
parilla "for nervous sick headacho of
which I had beon asufTerer for years.
It has beon a groat benefit -to mo."
Capt. Hugh llarkins, 1114 S. 15th
St., Philadelphia, Pa., eavs "it
puiified my blood and removed tho
blotches from mv skin." Mrs. Aarea
Smith, Topton, llerksCo., Pa., savs
slio "was entirely cured of a skin dis
ease of tho worst kind." by Log Cabin
Sarsaparilia. Bad skin indicates a
very bad condition of tho blood.
It you would livo and bo woll, go to
your druggist to-day and got AVarner's
Log Cabm Sarsaparilla and tako no
other, there's nothing liko it or as
good, and completely ronovato
your impaired system with this
simple, old-fashioned preparation of
roots and horbs.
Warner, who makes tho famous
Safe Cure, puts it up, and that is a
guarantco of oxcelienco all over tho
known world. Tako it yourself and
give it to tho other membors of tho
family, including the children. You
will bo astonished at its health-giving
and lifo-prolonging powers. We
say this editorially with perfect confi
dence, because wo havo heard good
things of it every whoro, and its namo
is a guarantee that it is first class in
every particular.
