THE JOURNAL'S PROGRAM.
The readers of The Journal under
stand that It fights for a general pro
gram of. good government all tho
time.
fAs a result, of .Its fight Salem has
a good city government as good as
can bo .reasonably expected out of
fallible human Instrumentalities. Sa
lem has less vice, less drunkenness
and gambling than other cltie3.
As a result- of its fighting ceaseless
ly Marlon county has the best county
government In the state, and yet It
It Is probably not perfect Tho coun
ty government could bo bettor than
It Is,
But in all human probability it
would not be much better for this city
If all the pets of all the more perfect
"vjolates the spirit of the Constitu
tion of the United States."
WOODBURN INDEPENDENT
AGAINST SCOTT.
Tho Woodburn Independbnt comes
out editorially against Judge Scott for
re-election, and advocates the election
of Mayor Corby. It says at the end
of a long article
"Thero Is not a politician In Ma
rlon county who does not know that
the Independent can be more oxpllclt
and prove to tho people that It would
bo a grave error and damaging to the
Republican party of this county to
re-elect Judge Scott. WE HOPE EN
TERING INTO FULL DETAILS
WILL BE UNNECESSARY, AND
reformers were put In office and a THAT ALL WILL SEE THEIR DUTY
prayer meeting held In the city' hall .WITHOUT FURTHER ELUCIDA
and court house daily.
In stnto affairs Tho Journal has
fought for a flat salary bill and for
an economical legislature. Let those
TION."
The above Is pretty nearly a throat,
and Judgo Scott had better "see" the
Woodburn editor. If the editor has
who have dofeated these reforms an-. had any bad dreams he ought to mako
swo'r 'to the people when the time them public anyhow.
For a newspaper man who has
fought ho "best men In the party, and
not, been1 abovo almost 'distressful re-

been' earnestly for these reforms, and
has advocated thorn In an Uncompro
mising manner. That program has
not beon deviated from ono hair, and
will yet have to bo adopted.
In Salem public school affairs The
Journal has fought for tho best, Our
schools are good. They should bo
bottor. They must finally bo tho best
In tho state. Those who nro satisfied
with los3 aro also good pqople.
ON THE8E LINES THE JOURNAL
WILL FIGHT IMPERSONALLY FOR
PROGRESS, AND NO AMOUNT OF
PRE8SURE OR THREATS CAN
CHANGE ITS POLICIES.
Ijroach himself to .-try to elect Mayor
Corby county Judge In this way Is a
mistake
Mayor Corby Is a fine man, but ho
has choson a poor weapon to fight
Scott with' In the person of the
Woodburn editor, who is not abovo
the lino of vulnerability himself.
If thecounty judgo ha3 been guilty
of any lapsos of official duty tho
Woodburn editor owes It to the pub
lic to toll them all about It, and let
them judgo for themsolvcs, instead of
handing out lnucndos.

But tho unfortunato polltlral con

peoplo can bo easily deceived In so
plausible a proposition.
Tho Portland bosses have undoubt
odly takon. ad vantage, for tholr own
purposos, of tho public sentiment In
favor o Direct Nomination.
With tho Portland dallies silenced
or for tho measure, which they hon
estly bolievo is a reform bill, tho
mass of tho pooplo will bo misled.
Tho country papers are gonorally

j Tho politicians aro all afraid of tho

fear of giving the Improsslon that
they aro against direct nomination.
They would really be for diroct

This paper has novor engaged In
personalities In discussing schoof af
fairs and does not propose to. This
paper has not undertaken the defonso
of City Supt Traver.
Ho is a young man of 33, who-has
dovoted all his life to teaching. Ho
has accomplished decided results at
Salem for the Improvement of the
schools and he seems to bo In de
mand elsewhere.
Tho Journal Is not attempting any
defense of Supt. Travor. His work
for the Salem schools, although not
above criticism, has beon endorsed
by tho school board.
Tho weak point to all that has beon
printed by Director Fletcher Is that
If Mr. Traver hasvviolated tho orders
of tho school tfoard, why did tho board
ro-omploy him?
But the purposo of this papor la not
to hnvo a controversy with any mom
bor of tho school board. Mr, Fletcher
has stated that ho will ho guided en
tirely by tho oxprokod will of tho poo
plo. , It Is up 'to tho peoplo ot Salem
fcchoQl district No. 24 to say what
they wnn tholr schools to become. At
tho noxt olectlon they must voto up
Or down tho grades abovo tho ninth
grado.
They must voto up or down whe
ther tho Salem schools shall be put
on a par wlth'tho othjr towns of the
samoslzo In tho stato, and Mr. Flotch
or agrees to abide by that voto,-
That is a fair proposition and the
people ot Salem can tako no excep
tion to that. And the people will not
voto tholr schools down bolow tho
grados that are carried on In all cities
of tho slzo of Salem In tho United
States. , ,
Tho pooplo of Salem should sustain
the proposition to havo grades In tho
public schools .abovo tho ninth grade.
They should elect a school director
on that Usuo on tho third Monday
In Juno.
According" to tho unofflclat ToporU
GET OUT OF DEBT AND BUILD
GOOD ROADS.
Columbia county Is another one out
of debt. All Oregon counties should
be so In tho near future. This will be
the very greatest sort of an Immigra
tion Inducement.
Marlon county (Rep.), out of debt;
Linn county (Dem.), out of debt;
Wasco county (Rep.), out of debt;
Baker county (Dem.), has reduced Its
debt from $300,000 to 150,000 and will
Eoon be out of debt; Polk and othor
counties (mixed), out of debt.
Tho conclusion is that politics cuts
no figure. What tho peoplo want is
a county Judge, county commission
ers, assessors and sheriffs who will
pull and work for the peoplo, and to
put their respective counties out of
debt, and to build good roads, and do
good, clean, honest servlco gonerally;
and It doesn't amount to a hobo's eja
culation whether they aro Republicans
or Democrats.
Judgo Doan of Columbia county Is
a Republican; if he has beon a good
ono, as It loolro llko. the people ought
to keep him there. Judgo Scott of
Marlon county not ,only helps to keep
his county out of debt, but Is fore
most among Oregon county Judges In
tho good-roads crusado; he should bo
kept In office Ho Is more than earn
ing his salary. Portland Journal.
t' THeVaNAMA CANAL.
John F. Wallace, general manager
of the Illinois Central railroad, has
accepted an, appointment as chief en
gineer in chargo, of the construction
of tiie Panama canal. Mr. Wallace is
52 years old, was educated as a civil
engineer, and roso from a position as
rodman In tho service of tho Carthago
& Qulncy railroad, In 1869, to chief
engineer of the Illinois In 1891. Ho
practically rebuilt this railroad dur
ing tho ensuing 10 years, and became
Its general manager In 1902. Ho gave
up a bofter position and prospects,
financially, to direct tho greatest piece
of engineering work that has over
beon undertaken. Ho will receive a
'salary of $25,000 a year In the em
ploy of tho government. It Is esti
mated that two years will be required
to comploto tho surveys, making tho
estimates of cost, and 'decldo on tho
final plans. In round figures tho ca
nal will cost $200,000,000, and will re
quire 10 years to complete. Aside
from the engineers, machinists, and
othor skilled labor, tho constructive
work wlH'gIve employment to 50,000
men.
FOR CIRCUIT JUDGES.
Tho Republicans havo put up two
mon In the prime of life and of su
perior ability for circuit Judges.
Burnett and Eddy aro mon of the
strictest Integrity, of high character
and fine standing in the profession.
Eddy has an unblemished reputa
tion as a legislator, and has gonerally.
been on the right slu of things.
Judgo Eddy, of Tillamook, Is not to
bo confounded with Jas. B. Eddy, ot
Portland, who was on tho railway
commission. Ho Is no relation of Col.
Jim Eddy, either.
