A FULL telegraphic report, received by any newspaper In a city Is of ...''Immense Importance to that city. Th f abllo generally does not realize this fact, for the American people- have a habit of accepting things as tbey are aritbfj.ut fathering to Inquire Into the cause).- This full telegraphic serv ice, such as The Capital Journal re ceive, Is taken a a matter-of-course by the readers, and while this news wrvlce Is at times not of the utmost Importance, there are occasions when to be without it would be almost a !litlcal and civic crime. In times of calamity and disaster, when the pub lic feeling Is wrought tip, the local pa per with full telegraph service, Is at hi nd with the complete story, the full ('etalls, that otherwise would not bo available for honrs. It Is there with the news long before the paper goes to press, putting on its bulletin boards Die Information the public is looking for. Ab an Illustration, Tuesday night The CapiUil Journal received full re turns, the same full dispatches that " ere flashed to the big dailies of the pn-at cities. Salem had the news just as complete and Just as early as Portland or San Francisco, and it took the only means available of giv ing, not only to its own patrons, but to all who cared to see, the full re turns. They were brief na shown by aid of a stereoptlcon, but they were correct, and Salem know Tuesday night, about the election results, all that it otherwise would have waited until next day for and then would have had to pay for by purchasing the Oiegonlan. that it is not over-stepping the bounds of modesty, or asking more than should gladly be given it by every Sa lemlte, when it suggests that it should go inio every Salem home. Try it a month, and you v. Ill not be without it HIT WHAT'S THE ISE. THERE are two things the news papers of the whole country have advocated, pleaded for, wrote about, insisted on, done every thing that human ingenuity could conceive, to accomplish, and yet they have never succeeded. One of these Is to get the election boards of the counties, In sending in the ballot boxes and returns to the county clerk, after election, to mark a ballot with the total results, so that the papers and the public could learn the results before the board meets and canvasses the returns. A large majority of the boards do this, but there Is always a number that do not, and the result is that Information In which the public is more deeply Interested than In any other the election returns is una vailable. In many cases this does not matter much, for the results can, with rea sonable certainty, be forecasted from the returns available. In close elec tions, however, this cannot be done, and the public must wait with such patience as It can muster until the canvassing board acts. This Is the case this ynr, for instance, on the U. S. senatorshlp, on equal suffrage and several other matters here In Ore gon. The vote Is so close that, while the unknown precincts are not liable to change the results, It Is easily pos sible for them to do so. Had tickets ti,o fur, itnl .Tmirnnl Is not nattine I been sent Bhowlng results In each The Indian Is Held From Developing; He Must Get Fair Play By ARTHUR C PARKER. Secretary and Treisurer of the National Indian Conference 6 VERY thoughtful student of htunan di-vrbvmui.t lelif'cs that the INDIAN POSSESSES EVKHY AHII-Ul AND CAPACITY FOR DEVELOPLiiiXT and that he is capable of any attainment possible for men provided his environment is made normal. This postulates that the Indian is equal in inherent capacity and therefore NOT AN INFERIOR. Many mistakes and much misery have been produced by dogmatically as serting the contrary. ' Ilampered by a false environment and artificial social conditions, though necessary to restrain him, the Indian has found it DIFFI CULT TO DEVELOP ALONG NORMAL LINES. The edu cation, civilization and incentivo came from without and not from within. The INDIAN IS A CAPABLE. USEFUL AMERICAN when ho is permitted to be. There can be little doubt that the ma jority of Americans desire justice and progress for the Indian. Americans, as a rule, believe in FAIR PLAY. As the law stands this is now difficult to give. An uncertain and indetermincd status makes it possible for dishonest interests to prey upon the In dian so affected. There has often been the lack of fair play and often no redress. The LAW BLOCKS THE WAY. THE INDIAN HAS NEVER BEEN THE SUBJECT OF SEARCHING SOCIOLOGICAL STUDY. BASIC CAUSES FOR CONDITIONS HAVE NEVER BEEN STUDIED; HENCE THE "PROBLEM" THERE MUST BE A NEW BEGINNING. SCIENTIFIC 8YSTEM MUST SUPPLANT DISORDER. Who Said Corns? I Use "Gets It!" It Works on a Sure, 'cw Plun "Glory! Come and See How CETS-IT Morki "GETS-IT" the new corn cure, on a new principle, works like the touch of a fairy's wand. No more knives, razors, files or other Instru ments of torture for corn-sufferers. No more salves, plasters and band ages that hurt the rest of the toe more than they relieve the corn. "GETS-IT" never Irritates or turns the true flesh raw. It Is as safe as water. But my, how It does go after corns, bunions, callouses, and warts. It works painlessly, but It shrlvelB 'em right up till they drop off, leav ing firm, healthy flesh underneath. "GETS-IT" Is guaranteed to give satisfaction, or your money refunded.

It calls your attention as wide awake citizens of our rapidly develop ing city, that it is one of the many tliliics aiding In this growth; that its telegraph Bervlce, the very best possi ble to get, Is something Salem would t adly miss should It be cut out and It points out that it Is worthy of your In-art v suoiiort and patronage your help In maintaining Its high standard of news (service, and therefore feels precinct, the tabulated vote could have been given by Thursday, at the latest, but, as It is, the actual results In the state will not be known until next week. The other matter Is purely a news paper affair, and that Is, the apparent Impossibility of getting the ministers to send Into the offices of evening pa pers their Sunday church announce ments Friday evenings. They do not seem to realize how much the paperB would appreciate this. These notices are set if received at night and so do not interfere with the setting of telegraph and local news, which can not be gotten Friday evenings.
