It Is a day for us all to .re member for its many blessings, not only to us at this age, but extending back to the day wien light was find (joen In the East, nineteen centuries ago. When wc think of the bless ings the advent of this day has brought to the world, wo should in deed rejoice and be glad. The great hero of tills day lias taught us many lessons which we - reret to say are too often remem bered only on this day. First of all by his great example we a o taught to humble ourselves before our maker and fellow inou. We should meet friends as FitiENDSmcet others as more thau friends. If we have had dlflcrcnces with our neigh bors we should remember that sucli can only be the outgrowth of men tal errors. Let us not look up to one man simply because he is rich, nor down upon another because perchance he is poor in this world's goods. Let us look upon both as brothers. We are all of the same clay, and our conditions vary only as that clay varies by contact with tho cold world. We all begin and close our earthly exis tence with equalj opportunities. Let us bu grateful for that which we have and not regret being denied favors for which perhaps wo are not fitted, for when wo covet that which Is beyond our reach wo too often loso that which wc already have. The Lo.nl of Light hath taught us that a contented mind eoutalueth greater riches thau the flesh pots of Egypt or tho Ivory coffers of tho Orient. Let us rise above envy and proilt by tho joys of a magnanimous spirit. Above all lot us exercise that great eat of all virtues, charity. Let us be eharltablo, both in the senso of giv ing and forgiving. Have wo a poor friend on o who is I u need of balm for his wounded spirit, or food for his body ouo whose soul longs for that fond recognition which alone can heal tho dejected? If so, lot us go forth and lave his soul in tho milk of human kindness. This is the day for rejoicing. Let us each make another happy, and all tho world will truly rejoice and sail on tho silvery sea of Joy, not for a day, but for all time. The Journal Is sorry to see the papers of Albany work up so much feeling over the supposed rivalry ex isting between that town and Sa lem. It is all imaginary. Salem can llvo without Albany, and, to Judge from tho tone of those paperH, Albany would not object to living without Salem. From an un prejudiced business point of view It is impossible to seo where tho vital interests of either town clash with the other. In Albany's prosperity we can only see good times for Sa lem, and wo would really liko to see that town grow taster thau It does. But tho boys up thero should remember that they can't build up their town by trylug to pull down Salem. Let them put forth their best eflorts to get icoplo to como there, as Salem Is doing, and they will accomplish something. Wo really wish all surrounding towns t ho greatest possible prosperity, and In the meantime propose to hump ourselves to do for Salem all that can bu done. Wo know we havo wonderful advantages hero, and want tho people of tho world to know It. That will bring more people hero than to convlnco them that Albany or any other place Is no good on eaith. That is tho cause of our pichcut wonderful pros perity mid rapid growth. Tin: Women's Ilofugo Home at Portland, a slate Institution, is said by tho Orogoiilau to bu rendering excellent "urvhvfor tho unfortunate women within Uncharge, They aro mostly young women, and among (hem it girl of only twelve yearn.

It took Salem a good while to raise a subsidy for a woolen mill. "voliintarily, and without soliclta tionj she subscribed in two days over $20,000 to the proposed railroad to tho sea. Baker City Democrat. Tub big strlko at Manchester Is just now tho causo of much excite -mrntovcry whore. It flsems a trifle strange, though, that all the strikes are taking place in a free trade coun try, for wo are told at every election that protection is the cause. A Missouri girl recently shot a young man because he teased her about her fellow. This action the Alta California calls justifiable. It may bo to considered in tho Demo cratic state of Missouri, but in most civilized states it would be called murder. A ministerial contributor to the Chicago Advance remarks: "I do not care much for what Paul said to the sisters in Corinth or Ephcsus, or in any other heathen town. For we know very well that If, Paul were speaking to tho women ot a church In Chicago, he would tell them to talk." The San Francisco Examiner Is opposed to letting tho seal fishing contract to the highest bidder, but says the Alaska Commercial com pany should bo continued ir. the privelego for Its past good record. Its editorial savors somewhat of paid advertising, and its estimate of the government's ability to run its af Fairs in a business-like way Is be neath tho dignity of American journalism. Hnim is good advice, only It don't just lit Salem, for hero everybody rich and poor ore pulling togeth er. "The prosperity of a town is not graded by tho wealth of its Inhabi tants, but tho uniformity with which they pull together when any important undertaking is to be ac complished. A man with a thous and dollars at his command and a love for his town in his heart can do more for tho building up and im proving of it than tho millionaire who locks up his capital and snaps his linger at homo progress. Mrs. Ada H. Kkpley, of Eftlng ham, 111., an earnest worker in the W. C. T. U. department of purity In literature and art, was lately brought to trial for tearing down certain ob noxious circus posters whose exhi bition clearly violated tho moral if not tho civil law. Sho has just been honorably acquitted, tho doctrine being sustained that such pictures aro common nuisances and havo no rights under tho law. Tho judge aid that ho would havo douo tho same thing under tho samo circum stances. Concerning Small Farms. Htayton Sun: Touching the sub ject of small farms, a man who visit ed Salem last summer and saw the large holdings being subdivided into tracts of from llvo to twenty and thirty acres, writes as follews: Adam Smith said that the farm ers are not competitors against one auothor. In his day thero waH no great speculating producers of crops and it is llkoly he was right as to small fanners. As such farmers produce no more than they con sume directly or Indirectly, it Is plain that tho lncreaso In tho num ber of such farmers would lncreaso tho number of consumers pro rata, and their lncreaso could not be con sidered compotltlyo. A remark mado by a Georgia farmer In tho Southern Farm Is right In point, and tho moro of such farmers wo havo tho hotter for us all. Ho said: "I wish to stato what I think to bo tho truokoy to agriculture, animal llfo and vogetatablollfo must go together and iu natural proportions. Tho primo object In farming is to make a living, not merely to keep soul and body together but to llvo on tho good tilings wuicn nave been pro vided In tho great store house of na ture for us to Btibslst upon. ''Now, the great trouble In all our farming has been, our system Is an unnatural one. We havo mado all our figure to find tho dollar, and none to learn how to llvo and have; consequently, missed both. My lit tlo thirty-acre farm U Intended to correct thin unnatural system and how that every farmer who Is able to own liny or ouo nuiuircu acres ought to llvo like a king and be ub- tautlally Independent of tho world, though ho lives llfty mlliM from jnarkut." Ho says the corn Inking or ought to Ih with farmer, There U no doubt In the world that an Intelll. gent family can, If o minded, llvo on a miiuiII furiiii It require brain to do n, Hut the fault with our American fanners I it dlpoltlou to ralxoono tiling. Tho Ohio fanner enev grew all wheat iu doc (he Iowan and Mlssourian goes wholly to hog and hominy. The Southern to cotton, tho Callfomlan to wheat and fruit. All for speculation, nothing to live in comfort and ease. All for good times in tho future, for getting tho only good tlmo is now. The result is great surplus crops of com, cotton, wheat, hogs, etc., which aro thrown on markets to the great advautago of carriers and speculators, poor farmers and rich stockholders. Sweet Charity Misused. Senator Pierce, of North Dakota, has exploded tho scheme of some swindlers who have been at work in Eastern cities victimizing phil anthropic people by collcctlngmonov and goods for the nlleged purpose of relieving the suffering people of North Dakota who aro said to be starving, because of tho failure of crops for tho last three years. The swindlers have endeavored to create tho Impression that state pride keeps the senators and representatives from the Dakotas from making an aireal to either congress or the pub lic, for their people. Senator Pierce bu'h amonir other things on th's subject: "While the suffering in that state has been grossly exagger ated, there Is in a few of tho nowly eettled sections some destitution, and T do not desire to discourage in any manner the spirit which prompts the good peopl" of tho East to con tribute for such a purpose. But in tho case of such contributions they should be sent to responsible persons who will seo that they are religiously npplled to tho purpose designed by the donors." The matter should not bo allowed to drp at this, but tho tricksters who would thus ope rate under the cloak of sacred char ity should be ferreted out and con dignly punished. AX VGIiV DISCOVERY. A Keport that Should Bo Iteail. "A recent anslvratlon In Philadelphia by a celebrated cbcmlrtot ten populur brandi of Barsaparilla discloses tl.o astonishing fart that theso tcu snmplcs of blood purifiers (?) contained In tho aggrcgato sixteen different mlnorals, cloven of which wcro actU'o poi sons. Iodldo of Potash wos discovered In every sample mcrcuiy was found In all but two, whllo urscuio existed In six of tho ten brands. Not ono brand was tuo puro article." A reporter took tho above clipping to E. W. Joy, tho manufacturer of Joy's Vcgetablo Sar saparilla. Mr. Joy exhibited no surprise. Ho said druggists knew It. Ho said ho long ago saw tho crying need for a safe and absolutely puro vcgetablo preparation of Barsaparilla, henco his was named Joy's Vegetable Barsapa rilla, becauso it contained nothing but pure syrup of sarsaporllla, combined with tho puro Juices of California's vcgetablo alteratives. Unllko potash sarsaparlllas, it docs not forco impurities through tho skin, but stimulates tho various secretive organs, thereby correct ing functional derangements and eliminating all impurities through tho natural channels San Franeltco Examiner.

It is intended to make the drive leading from Commercial street through Riverside and High land additions and around Highland Park THE FINEST DRIVE IN THE STATE Of Oregon. Tho line of the Salem Street Railway Company runs through the middle of this addition, and no ots will be more than two blocks distant from the line. Highland Park will in tho near luture bo THE MOST POPULAR RESORT ABOUT THE CITY OF SALEM. Lots in Highland Additon are High and Dry and Well Located; Most Excellent Drainage The soil is black and rich. From all points a fine view is obtained of the public buildings and our highest mountain peaks. Arrangements are already being made for the location of two churches in this addition, and a numberof residences are soon to bo built. Buildings only of the best class will be permitted. Residence lota within the limits of the city of Salem are worth on an average over $1000. We can sell you better lots in High land addition for one-third of the money, and being directly on the line of tho street railway they are practi cally not half so far from the public buildings and the business part of tho town as the majority of the so called "inside lots." Buy a Lot in Highland Addition for Three Hundred Dollars, And let some other fellow pay $1000 for an inferior lot not so well located.
