A medical man calls The Capital Journal down for its con demnation of the law forbidding the use of common drinking cups on trains. The law was enacted at the demand of the state board of health, but no steps were taken to protect the people from graft. The water tanks were left in the unclean and unsanitary neigh borhood of the lavatories in each end of the car. A sanitary drinking fountain in the center of the car with cheap, sanitary drinking cups, furnished free by the railroad company,, would have been more reasonable. But to leave the water tanks where they are, and the news agents hold up the passengers for drinking cups all the way from ten cents to two dollars per cup is a graft. The Standard Oil Co. is reaping a harvest from such fool leg islation, selling a parafine paper drinking cup at ten cents that probably does not cost them over fifty cents a hundred. But it is done under the guiseof protecting the people, an act of the sacred legislature, ordered by the state board of health, and so the people have to stand for it. What experiments will the kind-hearted and easy-going, long-suffering citizenship not stand for? Next we shall see a law requiring them to wear rings in their noses and bells on their toes. . What would be of more practical benefit to this city than any other form of club or organization would be a simple plan of a get-togethec lunch Monday noon at Hotel Marion where, for a fifty-cent business men's lunch each one of the community's burden-bearers could meet his neighbors and without formality talk over the program of the week. Free expression for half an hour in the best interest of the city, discussed without publicity, and in a frank and hearty manner. That would produce good feeling throughout the week, would give unity of purpose and , understanding to the promotionwork of the community. That custom is being adopted in the most progressive communities and should be adopted in Salem. ENACT THE NON-PARTISAN PRIMARY. Let Salem be the first city in the state to enact the Non-Partisan Direct Primary in city affairs. That would be the first step toward improving the present de fective system in nominating city candidates. The amendment to the charter provides for the combined Des Moines and Tacoma plan, which has been adopted in San Fran cisco. The present direct primary law, held on Saturday afternoon, forces party registration and excludes all but Republican's and Democrats. Take this step and hold the primary election Monday after noon, when the business man and his employes can get off to vote. With a more or less crazy registration system, and a bad pri mary law, it is a wonder that anyone will vote at all any more. City elections are going by default, citizens are refusing to be candidates, and the expense of double elections is enormous. The time has come to take a common sense view, and cease this cry that we have a perfect system, when the opposite is the truth. If you have not registered it is your duty to register and cast your vote for a sane and reasonable city primary law. The Capital Journal is in recceipt of a current issue of the Ford Times, published by the Ford Motor Co., Detroit, Mich. It is an interesting little magazine put out by the company for the benefit of their dealers and owners of Ford motor cars. It is full of life and snap, and n person reading it cannot help be coming enthusiastic about the Ford car. FOLK SONGS IN SALEM. The educational friends of this city are to hear a program of folk songs at a German concert. The folk-song movement has come into popular vogue in a quiet and very unobtrusive manner. It has probably a deeper meaning and message in an educa tional way than most of us are aware. The bursting into song of the heart-beats of the common peo ple has been a continuous process. The songs of the people set themselves to music and involve melody and poetry of the simpler sort. On the evening of Thanksgiving Day the German Society will put on a program of Folk ronga. The lady come? as an accomplished lieder singer with cl tssic al folk songs In four languages. In the libretto the Yull text of the songs is given wuh an English translation easy to follow. o There are a good lot of men nominated for aldermen in tr.e dif ferent wards. They seem t. be men who do a good deal of leeping quiet and act like men who would a'teml to public busi ness in an orderly manner. None of them seem to be clamoring for a salary before they will give their time to the people. If they will take their seats and not make long speeches and not originate too many schemes anddeals, the city taxes may be re duced next year.

All doubt as to the Democratic nominee for the presidcmcy Is now removed. A circular from Woodrow Wilson's headquarters settles It; It says: "Snell Smlth( writing to the Tarrytown Argus says: 'Governor Woodrow Wilson, of New Jersey, will be the candidate of the Democratic party for the presidency.' " Snell should know. Every day The Journal receives from a dozen to twice that many communications from all over the country beginning 'will you kindly publish the within In your valuable paper." etc. It would take a Sunday edition of a city paper to hold the trash, which goes Into the "valuable papers," valuabe and handy waste basket. Gypsy Smith, in his work at Port land last night, declared he has seen devils on Portland streets.

You have undoubtedly wondered about the secret of our success how it was that the original capital of $50,000,00 of The A, C, Bohrnstedt Company was over subscribed and in less than two years was increased to $100,000,00 fully paid and in addition has a good substantial surplus, how the officers have been forced by the success of the original idea to organize another company with a .capital of $50,000.00 and then another of $25,000.00, and then another of $75, 000,00 (later increased to $150,000,00), and another with a capital of $100,000.00, and still another with a capital of $150,000,00, and finally another with a capital of $325, 000.00, There is no secret to the idea. It is so simple that it can be expressed in two words "Business Sharing." This business sharing plan is carried thruout the entire system. Nearly every one in the employ of The A. C. Bohrnstedt Company, from president to stenographer, work on this plan. In every sense of the word, the employee, instead of being an employee, is a partner with the investor in the business. Every officer and employee, as well as every investor, gets his or her reward for his or her services or money in pro portion to the profit made, The result is business co-operation and the result of such co-operation is su.ccess. This .is the plan in a nut shell. The sharing of profits is based on the business co-ope'r-ation which each individual has given to the earning power of the capital. Capital receives its share of profit, for it plays its part in the business. Labor receives its share as well, for it shares its full responsibility in the business. We thus have interested labor labor that shares its responsi bility as a partner in the business therefore shares the profits as a partner in the business. This is true co-operation. This co-operative or what is a better term Business Sharing System, is being extended to the subsidiary com panies as rapidly as possible and in every department. All of them are under it to a very large degree, Tomor row's chapter will deal exclusively with this one idea. We want to fix it in your mind so that it will stick, Employer and employee are both interested alike. When we started business only one otherfirm in the United States was oper ating under this system. They are the largest dealers in their ilne in the world, -Since inaugurating the system there have been no labor troubles, better hours and better advan tages for employees, as well as more money for owners and employees, Is not this worth while?
