Tho Asylum Findings,
i We publish In full in this lsuie
the findings of the grand jury of
Mailon county in the matter of Un
charges against tho mnnngcmcnt ol
the state asylum for the insane. A
careful reading of their full report
must convince anyone that the
charges first made public in the
Journal are pretty fully sustained,
and that there is an opportunity
for reform in the state institution
referred to. The grand jury prcttv
broadly intimates that there is a
combine among the attendants to
defraud the patients and to carry on
dishonest practices at the expense
of the state.
Tin: Journal will not attempt
to make public sentiment against
Dr. Lane. It Is not here to coerce
public opinion against any citizen.
Every man must stand on his own
record. We recognize that an asy
lum cannot well be run without an
tagonizing borne one, nor can it
well be done to the satisfaction ol
everyone. But newspapers are
coming more aud more to the theory,
and It is right, too, that the public
interests require less the abuse of our
political opponeuts and more atten
tion to real abuses in the public ser
vice, regardless of who it hits polit
ically. Dr. Lane-deserves-credit for any
economical use he may have made
of the means placed in his hands to
run the asylum. That is his duty.
But he deserves no credit, as some
would make the people believe, for
building the new wing, or any othei
improvement for which the legisla
ture has appropriated the people',
monev. It is his sworn duty to ex
pend public money, or direct its
expenditure, economically, a tin
servant of tho people.
The Journal Is not engaged in
sunnressiug important matters !
news in which the people of the
whole state are interested. It is uo
a part of our business to suppress oi
misrepresent the report of the grand
jury. Neither lias it been maue to
see, as a part of its duty, the neces
sity of volunteering any defense of
Dr. Lane, which that gentleman, it
la to be presumed, does not need.
Why Conceal tho Truth?
The following telegram was sent
from Salem last night and appears
u today's Oregenian:
The grand jury discharge 1 to-day
returned the most voluminous re
port ever made by a jury in this or
neighboring counties. They ex
amined all the state and county
buildimrs aud institutions, and
among other things condemned Sa
lem's city jail. They coiiinienuect
the management and condition of
the asylum aud penitentiary and
made a faw recommendations of
minor importance.
Could anything be farther from
the truth or conceal the facts more
completely than such a report as
he above about the asylum?
What is the object of concealing
the fact? Are such newspapers re
liable? People will look with interest for
a copy of the Oregonian after its
editor has read the calm, mild and
dispassionate statements of the
grand jury. The fair and moderate
statements of those men must con
vince anyoue that they were not
trying to make a case, but were only
striving after justice.
The Cannery nnd a llridpe.
There Is a point of great Impor
tance In the relation of the big Sa
lem Canning Works aud rebuilding
the bridge, so far as Polk and even
Yamhill ce: nties arc concerned.
The parts of 'ioso counties within
hauling distai of Salem, for fresh
vegetables and 'rults, haven vital
interest in a new bridge here at an '
early day. Take green corn alone;
at $5 n ton in the husk, there U not i

could get in from ten to u hundred thrce BUM wliki were lost a short

This fodder dried will go fur toward

very close relation between such es
tablishments as. the Salem Krult
Evaporator aiid tho Salem cannery
and tho future . prosperity of all
farmers In reach of those factories,
and the farmers will find it totheirin
lercst to move for a bridge at Salem.
They should get up big petitions to
their respective county courts.
A Croamery at Salem.
That would pay well. With
cieamery butter selling at 40 cents u
pound at retail, u good share of the
year it would be a good tiling for
the consumer ami a much better
thing for the farmer. That it should
oe a co-operative creamery we are not
prepared to say. Many such cream
eries whoso business management
lias been conducted by the farmers
have been failures In Illinois and
Wisconsin. There Is no doubt but
ihat the same principle applies to a
renmery as to any other factory
jreat distance from competition in
tho same line and an almost unlimit
ed homo market. Tho system of
gathered croam would be tho best
probably In this country. Under
tills system the creamery sends
wagons over certain routes each
day and they gather the cream and
u record U kept by Hhe inch and
paid by check monthly In cash at
the creamery, or the check or money
s delivered to the farmer each
month. This system keeps a 'great
leal of money in circulation among
the farmers all the year mound.
Let Salem have a creamery by all
means.
Tun City not Liable. In the
.iroeendings of the city council it
.vill be noticed that the claim, of
frvine Claggelt for damages on ac
count of injuries sustained by the
falling awning last summer, win
referred to the mayor for settlement.
A reporter of the Journal has
taken pains to look up a previous
ea-ie of this character, Pyburn
against the city, in which Judge
B'jls-e held in September I8S7, under
section 23 of the city charter, that
tho city could In no event be held for
more than 8100 damages Jor a defect
or datigerotn place in street, side
walk, building or other public place
in the city, and that the city was
not liable for that or any other
amount, "unless said city shall have
had actual notice of such defect or
dangerous place mid a rcasouable
time thereafter in which to repair
or remove such defect or dangerous
plaeo before tho hippenin.? of such
accident or injury." The quoted
language is that of suction 2J of the
city charter, which section was not
altered or amended by tho new
amendments to said charter made
by the lato legislature. Hence it
would appear that Mr. Claggett's
redress will have to bi from tho
owner of the property and not from
the city.

(t is not to bo inferred from the
grand jury report that county super
intendent Yoder is in any way de

as much as he should, as might be
taken from the facetious language
of the report, which was intended
as a joke on Professor Yodel's avoir
dupois. Jed Beale, who was pardoned out
out of tho state prison a few months
ago on account of sickness, since his
arrival home at Pendleton has
greatly improved in health. At tho
September term of the circuit court
ho was sentenced to a term of years
in tilt penitentiary for horse stealing.
When pardoned he was supposed to

A LONELY DEATH.
Eloquent Tribute to Younj; I'razcr
Who was Lost in the Snow.
The remains of "Nick" I'razcr
were laid to rest at Peudleton Sun
day a week. To a Tribune reporter
his father said: "I think that when
my son followed the deer he had no
idea whole ho was going, and as
night came upon him, ho began to
grow tired und started back for the
camp, aiulas ltwas blowing a pictty
stltTbieeze he started for Hie canyon,
but found the snow quite deep aud
soft. I supposo lie was growing
weaker every minute, and at last
had to lay down and rest. When
they discoveicd him 1 was only a
short distance away, and was the
first to touch him. I could not tee
any marks upon his face, I do not
believe his deatli wiib caused by fall
ing. When found he was lying on
the fiat of his back, and looked ns If
ho was only sleeping. Ills neck
was considerably swollen and dis
colored. I had the body removed
to Wilbur on a stretcher and It was
with dltllculty that the men who
carried the body could walk, so
steep were the hills over which they
bad to goto reiish Wilbur. It re
quired eight men to carry the body,
and I should think the spot where
he was found is about a mile and a
half distant."
On the occasion of tho burial, Mr.
J. P. Wager delivered a very elo
quent address. Tho following are
the closing passages: "Such was
the character of our late young
friend and neighbor. Quiet, unas
suming, industrious, one of Cow
words, but those words were always
to bo depended upon; honest with
all men; faithful to all trusts reposed
in him,- he had formed a character
that well might be if such bo tho
sowing aiulthc reaping, tho meas
uring and the building, of God and
nature the foundation for an eter
nal career. Of that wo cannot
speak; wo can only dumbly aud
reverently guess, and hope, and say
with hands inert and heads bowed
dewn: "Thy will, O God, be done."
"Our duty as friends and neigh
bors and mourning relatives is done.
Tho agonizing suspenso is over.
Nature i inexorable, unheeding pit
iless. Tho treacherous mountain
steep, the dark canyon, tho moan
ing pines, the walling mid-winter
winds and the Ice-cold drifted snow
will neither pity nor confess. The
tale they fell is iu iv tongue un
known to nrjrtal cars.
"But after a little, tho summer
breezes will blow with mild and
fragrant breath over tho spot where,
alone with nature mid with God, lie
faltered, fainted, and fell. The
mountain wlld-llowcrs will breathe
their fragrance around tho place,
l'ho summer sun and tho harvest
moon will shed their glorious efful
gence upon tho hillside aud Into the
grass-grjwn gorgo where his last
Journey so cruelly ended. And all
nature, where but lately It was so
dangerous and deadly for him, will,
as if in compensation and atom
incut or shall we say as if with
prophetic nromlbo bo bright with
smiles of welcome, and melodious
with enticing murmurings of leaf
and bird and rippling stream.
"Yes, let It bo a token and a
promise; that out of the chill an
guish and dark despondency and
diifted thoughts of sorrow for oiii
fiieiid's sail and untimely deatli, he
shall pass safely and speedily Into
tho springtime and summer of jin
Immortality, visions of which, be
hind veils of tears, Faith points for
us in dreams.

SCROFULA
Is that Impurity or tho Wood which pro
duces unslBlitly lumps or swellings oa tho
gl.-indsot tlio neck; causes painful running
Bores on tlio arms, legs, or feet; dcvclopes
ulcers la tlio eyes, ears, or nose, oitcn caus
ing blindness or deafness; is tfio origin of
pimples, cancerous growths, or tho many
other manifestations usually ascribed to
"humors;" and fastening upon tlio lungs,
causes consumption, and death. Hclng
tho most ancient, It Is tho most general of
all diseases or affections, for very tow
persons aro entirely freo from It.
How Can
It Bo
CUFtED
By taking riood's Sarsaparllla, which, by
tho remarkablo cures It has accomplished,
often when other medicines Jiavo failed,
has proven Itself to bo a. potent and pecul
iar mcdlclno for this disease. Somo of
theso cures aro really wonderful. If you
suffer fioin scrofula or Impure blood, bo
suro to try Hood's Sarsaparllla.
" Every spring my w If o and children havo
been troubled with scrofula, Bores break
ing out on them In arlous places. My
little boy, thico years old, has been a
tcrrlblo suffoier. Last spring ho was fino
mass ot sores from head to feet. I was
advised to uso Hood's Sarsaparllla, and wo
havo all taken It. The result Is that all havo
been cured of tho scrofula, my little boy
being entirely f rco from soi cs, and all four
of my children look bright m:d healthy."
