The old city council should not Lo talked in 1W work of reform by the ta!ucr of atlio .mayor or aldermen. Jheyr are r probably not, Intentionally, but tatuepreflenrcrlBta of-the city's af- fair rnrtnlnlv lnonDOrtUnely. Pueb the.worK of reducing -expenses. Tlie ataeafc'esfenew.tbBtutuia would be, the lartWSetlogoftho cauUclL ;tbisyear. Tbey knew that a pleasure of refornj proposing to-A'flect a'-euving'.of $4800 a year was pending.- They knew that ii was agreed upon by majority of tlie connd!. They know that at the find meeting of the new council a full board ofoflloera must be chosen and, unleic their salaries were reduced before theli election, thov would continue anotbti 'year at present high pay. Knowiu thee facts, the counollmen who are in the qlty who favor u reduction should not bebalked by tbe absentees. Jnaldltlon to the reductions pro pond by the reform committee ther houldbe a reduction of $1000 a year in th ' oflloe of city marshal. That propo .sltloaruf the Journai has. tbe endorse me tof, the. leading business menu! the city. $100 u mouth is a good In come tbwe days and a dozen men can be found to;perlorm the duties of city marshal for thut pay. The office of marshal now Is worth from two ti three thousand dollars a year, ir not more. Tbe reduction of $1000 a year in thU department would keep three men at .work the year around on the streets and support three families., It is a bus iness proposition that the council should not overlook. It is tbe application of u sound rulo of economy that aldermen would apply to their own business. It lu a good rule p apply to public affairs. No office should be worth more than ii can be' well filled for. If $1500 was u .fair salary Ayear ago $1000 is fair now. But the salary of $1600 is not all tbe marshal receives. By bringing cases before the recorder as acting justice of ' tbe peace th marshal as constable get -from $40 to $80 a month additional fees. ' i 'Besides there' are several "asides" that could be named. No one can blame the marshal for making all he can out it, -efhis' office. But there Is a manifest Injustice in a city's affairs where one i i man 1b paid $3000 a year out of the city treaiuryi and the city is economizing by cutting off men on tbe police force and laborers on the streets, who have families to support at common day wages. If policemen aro to ;be discharged, if laborers on the street force are to be cut' off, let the income of the olty mar , isha b reduced proportionately, That f Is Justice. A prominent Balem corpor Vatlon recently found it necessary to re- trench its expenses to the amount of . four or. flvo thousand dollars a year, The salaries were reduced all around, t Including the highest officials. In fact om t of tbe severest cuts were made on thoss who received the biggest pay. Ii it tbe council not fail to meet tonight and push its work of reform earnestly and vigorously, Honest men will not - "conduct the people's business less care- folly than their own. .CALL A R0AU CONVENTION. ;?

Tbe difference Is the difference between wisdom and folly, intelligence and ignorance, scientific method and bap-hazard Incapacity. Tbe Claggett road Is only good where it was finished. Where It was only graded and ditched but not sufficiently covered with gravel It Is like the rest, only the worse for the work done upou It. Bring these facta before a road convention. But enough has been done on theso two pieces of road to prove forever the difference between application of private enterprise and gravel, and pub lic supervision and summer-fallowing. To grade up a road, without proper drainage, is only to make an elevated qu.igmlre. .To plow aud scrape a road bed without finishing it with a heavy roller and coat of gravel or broken rock is like puttlug the sheeting on a roof without putting on, the shingles, or committing any -.other piece of aston ishing folly, and should be madu a pub llo crime.' Tho public official who will 'bus expend thousands of public taxes inly to make roadways Impassable serves the people in a manner no more Intelligent thau stopping up rat holes with porridge, or patching holes lu a ship's side with tissue paper. The pub lic noed to be educated to realize the immorality of collecting taxes to make roads worse Instead of better. Call road convention for this purpose. Call a road convention lo begin tbt work of building good roads in this county. Let a convention take counsel with engineers and surveyors and au thorities on road buildiug and prepare an upproved plan upon which a piece of road shall be built at once. Let an other committee make an estimate of the cost of a first class gravelled road from Salem to Woodburn, and from Salem to Dallas and submit a plan for raising the money. Two hundred dol lars a mile at present prices of labor and material will probably build a pasaabli road bed. If properly managed $5000 can be raised to build a road from tie, lem to Woodburn or Dallar. It can be done within six months, before the dry season sets in. At all events let us move. Counsel will bring wisdom. Consultation will develop ways and means. The American peo ple possess the grit aud the means to extricate themselves out of the mud. Only get them directed upon the ob stacle to be overcome aud it must yield. Call a road convention. Our best business men and largest farmers, prop erty owners and taxpayers should pub licly issue a call for a county road con vention, Do not wait for some politic ian or puiiiVuK)rtlclal to act. Act your selves. Do not wait for the county court or commissioners or the legisla ture. It is imperative that a start be made lo break the embargo of. mud. This county does not suffer from bard times, low prices, mossbackism or high taxes a tenth as much as from , bud roads. The country and town sutler equally. Public convenience, public morals and the progress of thuj age equally demand actiou. Let a call for a road convention be issued and circu lated for signature today. SUGUESTKD COMMENT.

A Sclentlflq Achievement That May Come to' Post In tbe ISfture. Wo can writ by electricity, can send pictures and designs by tho Bamp agency and talk to our friends at a distance by means of tho electric, wire. "When the British association visited Newcastle, Professor Perry told his.auditors. that seeing by elec tricity was a possibility of tho fu ture, and he had shortly "before drawn a. picture of -scientific achieve ments which, would, enable menus divided by. Jarge continents, and oceans not only to ialk with each other, but to look upon their fea tures. Even before that Professor Bell is known to have been at work in his laboratory endeavoring to solve tho problem, and though 10 years have elapsed since tho possi bility of; applying the well known principle's of light in tho same way as the principles of sound.havo been applied in tho telephone was first suggested, the professor is still as hopeful of successna ever. There is no theoretical reason why light may not be conducted in tho same way as sound, but Professor Bell tells us that it will be very much more difficult to construct an apparatus for the purpose, owing to tho immensely greater rapidity with which the vibrations of light take place when compared with the vibra tions of sound. The difficulty, how ever, is merely one of finding a dia phragm sufficiently sensitive to re ceive these vibrations and produco tho corresponding electrical vibra tions, and it is encouraging to have it on the authority of such a man as Professor Bell that at least a dozen men, eminent in science in various parts of the "world, are at present en gaged in endeavoring to find the so lution of this problem. Professor Bell himself, who has never ceased to grapple with the difficulty, can didly admits that up to tho present his labors have been in vain, but he is full of hopefulness as to the suc cessful issue of his own research as well as that of the other scientists who have taken the matter up. Newcastle (England) Chronicle. When He Did. The benevolent person had put 5 cents into tho bands of the tramp, and feeling a kind of proprietary in terest in him thereafter proceeded to question him a bit "You're a pretty hard citizen, aren't you?" be asked. "Rather difficult at times, sir," re plied the peripatetic frankly. 4 'I presume, you steal when you get a chancel" "Only in very necessitous cases, sir, and then only in a Birtall way." "And lie?" "Yes, it's part of our profession, Bir." "And use tobacco?" "When I can get it, sir," Tho benevolent person began to bo sorry he had invested in such stock, but ho was going now to the bitter end. "Of course," ho -went on, "you drink too." Tho tramp 'hesitated for the firet timo, as if in doubt, and looked at tho nickel in his hand. 'Well, yes, sir," he replied slowly, "I drink two when I've got tho price, but under tho present circum stances I'll only drink one, unless you" But tho benevolent person could not stand it any longer, and ho made a rush for tho visitor, which result ed in a sudden disappearance.
