A UKLXTUL VOMOY. The JouitNAli would mako a plea for a helpful polloy In city and county aflalrs. All tho vetoes and revokemonts In tho world will not prevent a reaotiou in tho affairs of Salem aud Marion countv. One negntlve blow struck at this time does more harm than years of work will build up. The manner In which real estate sales have fallen off will prove this. Tk JouitNAL will uot chargo that the action of tho mayor and county court in refusing to grant street car line and motor franchises Is the cause directly of so much less real estate being sold in March, but it wishes to make use of the fact to sujw the importance of a helpful, affirmative, hopeful, progressive polloy, as contracted with a destruc tive, ohlcctlng, hindering, harmful attitude on tho part of those ofllclals Salem and Marlon county are sottllug up rapidly and are under going rapid changes and the demand for rapid transit and improved trans portation facilities Is growing greater. Motor Hues are being built all over Portland and along tho country roads altogether. If there are objections to tho charters naked by euterprislug individuals they should be removed aud overcomo In a helpful and conciliatory maimer aud not in a way to discourage any BUeli enterprise. It takes but a little of blndrauco aud objection to turn tho tide of prosperity against auy city orcounty aud with a depression existing In so mauy Pacillo coast cities that little should not bo furnished by public olllolals. Tho people have a right to expect a helpful and not a hinder ing course of action from such officials. TO J)KltOCnAT10 LEADERS. St. Louis Globe-Demecrat: The contrast between Cleveland aud Hill la a striking and suggestive one. They entertain tho samo general vjews and purposes, but their methods arc entirely difloront.- The former oseumes a dlgnlfltd and self exalting air and pretends that ho does not want the nomination for president, but will simply consent to take it as a patriotic duty. Hill, on tho other hand, makes himself agreeablo to the people, uses his lu lluouce directly In caucuses and con ventions, and lets lt bo known that ho wants tho nomination and will do everything In his power to obtain lt. Tho fact is, of course, that Cleve land is just as anxious to eecuro the prlzo as a man can possibly be, aud his studied aflcctatlon of indlfler ence is designed to promote his chances. He does not decelvo tho peoplo with his tolemu platitudes about tho responsibilities of tho ofllco aud tho 6acrl(lco of personal comfort Involved In holding it. Thoy know very well that ho wants tho place again, because of the power and honor attached to lt. Ho might as well come out like Hill and acknowledge tho truth. No body can bo mado to bollevo that he laslncero In saying that if ho were to consult ouly his personal prefer ences no would neltuer seek nor accept the nomination, and when he talks that way he loses rather than gains popular respect and confldinc. It is evident that Hill's manner is more acceptable to tho peoplo than Cleveland's, Whatever they may think of tho relatlvo ability of the two men, they cannot help ad miring tho candor and courago of the one who makes a direct fight for tho thing ho wants. CliKATEH l'OOI), The Burlington Hawkeye points out thus plainly tho cheapness of food at the present tlmo compared with the prices of last year: "One of tho blessings enjoyed by the peoplo of tho United (States this year Is a notable dtcreao in the cost of food. While many of tho countries ofEuroro arosuflering from famine, or at least a grievous lack of braid at prices within reach of tho poor, there has been a decrease of ut least (en per cent, in tho average cost of groceries to tho retail consumer in Auu-ilcan cities. A careful compari son has Uen made quite recently of prices governing now and a yrar ago, and the average decrease wim about leu per cv nt. In ceitaln or ders oovetlug as many as twenty flvu items thuaggregalu cost of the goods was lwenly-llvo to thirty ier cent. less thuu It would have beeu hut March. The decrease lias been greatest in tome of tho most im portant staples used by all classes of consumers. For Instance, sugar Is about onr-thlrd' cheaper, Dried fruit cost only about nlxty or sev enty per cent, as much as they did a year ago. The price of syrup la con siderably lower. This means 0, on the average, will go as far m f 10 rr would a year ago in buying groceries for a family, and in tho staples most importaut to households of modest means, $7 or $8 can be made to count as much as $ 10 did a year ago. Part of this great saving to tho masses is due to the bounty of nature and part of It to tho MoKlnley law and tho Republican party. Tho low price of sugar and dried fruits is a monument to the work of tho last congress, which will grow more aud mora vast and impressing as time Increases tho benefits of tho law en Joyed by the American ieoplo." tiik ruorosKD censorship. Tho bill introduced by Represen tative Henderson, of Iowa, giving to the head of the postofllco depart ment tho power to exclude news papers from the malls on his own responsibility la a thoroughly unwiso piece of legislation. It would eet up a dangerous and autocratic cen sorship of the press which ought not to bo and could not be tolerated. The present laws, rigidly enforced, should be sufficient to cause tho exclusion of all improper literature from tho malls. Tub Jouhnal Is glad to kuow that tho postmaster geueral does not favor tho Hender son bill. Blnger Hermaun will havo a walk over for nomination for congress. What will tho Balem Jouknai. and a few other Itopu oilcan journals do theu ? Albany Democrat. Will tho Salem Journal and other nowspapere that havo been lighting Hermann's nomination oheerfully accept tho inevitable? Blnger Is cortntu to secure tho nomi nation as tho result of tho conven tions held Saturday. Eugene Guard. About ns cheerfully as tho Guard and other Democratic papers will support tho nomination of a Demo cratic president thoy havo been lighting. ig 'Jta! An Appoal for tho Humana Society.

Sonator Irby Will Sail All Hia Bank Stocks. Columbia, 8, C, March 81. United States Senator Irby hoa written a letter to his local organ, In which ho states that on the strength of his advico last spring the Alli ance borrowed a great deal of money from banks in Laurens. He find now, ho says, that the banks forget ful of past patronage, are extortion the last cent that common decency will allow, from the fanners on the loans. He says that In the. helpleea and Impoverished condition of the farmers tho banks force them to pay 1 per cent, per month, and do it as if they wero conferring a great favor upon the borrowers. The letter cencludes: "I have always opposed ' auoh financial echemes, and natu rally I am more opposed to them now than ovor. I am a stockholder in one of these banks. Icondmuj tho practice, and will not be a party0 with those shylocka to indirectly rob tho people, Two weeks ago I gave themuotlco that I would Bell my bank stock, and X asked the cashier of tho bank to sell it. I In tend to sell It, and this explanation Is mado lest somo enemy of mine will charge me with being a-party to what I conceive to be a moral crlmo." So blttor Is (he hostility of tho Tillman administration to cor porations that tho employes of the railroads aro organizing an associa tion to protect their companlea from unfavorable legislation. WHAT DAKA SAYI. The United States Will Be Defeased in the Bearing Sea Case. New Yokk, March 81. The Sun " yesterday had the following edito edite rial: "Wo have asked for the name of tho statesman who composed and directed the arbitration treaty with England respecting tho questions that have been raised in Behring sea, and wo are not surprised that no ono has yot arisen to answer the question. All our rights In Behrlng sen are cfTeotuaUy given away by that party.
