The Cities of Oregon are responding nobly to the demand of Portland for co-operation in entertaining the national grand lodtre of the Order of Elks. From Ashland, Medford, Roseburg, Eugene and Albany spe cial trains carry their local lodges to the national gathering at the beautiful Rose City. Portland Is proving a great entertainer her decorated build ings and her brilliantly illuminated streets showing off to ad vantage the warm-hearted hospitality of her people. The principal cities of the state have royally received the spe cial trains of Elks passing through by giving them automobile excursions and local entertainment. The crowning event will take place at Salem on Friday, when the special excursions of Elks will come to the Capital City from the national grand lodge to visit the Cherry Fair. OFFER MORE LIBERAL TERMS. The Business Men's League went on record Monday as favor ing the most liberal terms for a general franchise for the Port land, Eugene & Eastern railroad. . This railroad system is not only developing the valley cities, but is the thorn in the side of the trancontinental situation that is forcing other lines to action. . The Welch system, as it is known, is the only one that is actu ally proposing extensive development of branch lines, and they will bo more valuable than street car lines. It is a well-known fact that any street car line in Salem will not be very profitable, if it even pays expenses of operation, for Borne years to come, with our population. A line to Silverton, a line to Rosedale, a line to Stayton, and a line north on Mission Bottom will be worth more to. Salem than the street car lines in the city. ... For these reasons the city council will act wisely m giving the Portland, Eugene & Eastern a liberal franchise. CORRECTING MISSTATEMENTS. Referring to the attack made by Col. Hofer in the Capital Journal a short time since upon Col. J. M. Poorman, of this city, it is worth while, even at this late date, to Btate one or 'two facts. Col. Poorman is charged with having got through the legislature years ago a bill which has given him a salary of $11 a day as colonel all those years. As a matter of fact Col. Poorman has held the position of colonel of the Third regiment only two or three months. And it is further true that the salary Col. Poorman receives for the office he holds is not paid by the state of Oregon, or by virtue of its . laws, but by the United States, in compliance with the pro visions of the Pick bill, which Col. Poorman had no more to do with passing than did Col. Ilofcr, or the one who is reading theso lines. ..... The above is from the Woortburn Independent, and, m justice to Col. Toorman, The Capital Journal wishes to say that it said nothing like ti e above, and did not attack Col. Poorman or reflect on his name and honor as a nan in the slightest manner. The Journal did say that when ho was in the legislature Col. Poorman, as chairman of the committee on military affairs fot through a bill raising all the salaries of the military officers. Then the article went on to say that compi'ii.-ution was at cer tain figures. Of course,, as everyone knows, it is paid out of the Dirk bill, and also by the state of Oregon. Col. Poorman did no more than other nun connected with va rious departments of tlw slate hae done in the legislature- in crease the emoluments of their department. Hut that general practice is what makes taxes so high that the poorer class of citizens have to go without shoes and other nec essaries of life in order to meet the demands of the sheriff. It has got so that anv man who ci'lls nttention to any of these ninUers is immediately .imped onto by the newspapers con trolled by the predatory interests that rob the taxpayer. Their hired writers denounce any man who dares raise a voice against the transfer of millions frorr. the pocket of the masses and 5)5 families out i.f 100 are not well-to-do. So there is probably nothing to do but keep still and every body join the army of tax-extenders and silence press criticism with the death penalty. jT5 Arvf AM A Non-Skid Tires Supreme by test of hardest service, are the ent potitivt iccurity against skidding on any kind of road, at all seasons of the I ) Who Coniwiar 1 tU ' - .. 0Mt j C MUM iIMM ilm MMi .tuwmrnm m u mm mwimi ' up spiepiiM suffering of others. Hundreds of lives have been saved by the Introduction of the cable- rltged never-break saddle, for the wild riding cow punchers and gen eral UHe in the mountains and on the plains. This Is the Invention of one of the brothers, P. J. McMonles, now a partner with Hamley & Co., Pen- dleton. This saddle has a wire cable rigging arranged In such a way that It simply cannot break. This patent, for the wholesale trade Is owned ex clusively by W. H. McMonles and the result Is Oregon-made saddles are In demand all over the world, being ridden even In South America and South Africa. When his Are took place Mr. Mc Monles felt that he was lilt pretty hard but now look3 upon It almost as a blessing. His bad luck sent him shower of congratulatory letters from his customers that fairly took him off his feet. Ten thousand dol lars in remittances rolled in in one week. One country harness shop In Oregon ordered 20 horse collars that were not needed, but purely as an expression- of sympathy and good will. Another firm paid up a bal ance and enclosed a chock for fi00, fiaylng they would want some stock In the fall. A tannery offered to run its plant day and night to supply him with stock. A Jobbing firm or dered 175 dozen collars. It was ex pressions like that which touched McMonles' heart and touched the right spot In his bank account at the right time. The harness and saddlery business is one of the great industries of Ore gon becauso tills state can furnish t lie hides, has the tanneries, has the ttinbark, can produce the best saddle and harness leather in the world and has the practical men with the ex perience to handle the trade. That is why Portland stands second to Kansas City only In harness and sad dlery manufacture. An Oregon funner Is doing more to keep money at home and build up homo Industry when he insists on buying harness and saddles that are "Made-ln- Ore gon" than he can In almost any oth er way.
