Phone Main 82. THE FOOL ASKS QUESTIONS, WILL THE WISE GUY ANSWER? think tank of the fellow who pens tho bright rays of thought for the morning paper. THE GENTLEMAN who furnishes the montal pabulum bo anxiously and longingly awaited by those who like that kind of soothing and restful reading, for the editorial page of the morning paper, having classified the Capital Journal editor as "a crapulent nd cheerful idiot and irresponsible yawper," ought forever to render the latter quiescent. That he is not so, is probably due to his "crapulent idiocy," and hence he "rushes in where angels fear to tread" and takes the chances of being called something real mean by taking the onomasticon in knickerbock ers, who writes the profound legal argu ments for the morning paper a few questions. It is an old saying that "a fool can ak questions that a wise man cannot answer," and as our reputation as a fool has been established by the indis putable dictum of the unabridged pons asinorum, who corrals airy nothings in empty space and gives them in print a local habitation and a name, we desire to also establish his reputation as being the real wise man by asking a few questions, that in consequence of his wisdom, ho will probably not answer. Why is the morning paper so deeply interested in the purchaso of the Salem company's water plant by the city I Why did it not, if it knew of this in iquitous clause in tho charter amend ment that would have deliberately rob bed tho outlying districts, tell its read ers sof Why did it, as It says it did, talk the matter over with thoso managing tho matter of purchasing the water plant, and so readily agreo with thorn thnt tho section alluded to did not mean any thing, and then keep still about itf Why did it come out after tho in iquity of the measure was shown up in The Capital Journal, and attempt to do cnivo tho peoplo still further by insist ing the section did not mean what it said, and by trying to distort that meaning in an effort to mako tho sec tion seem harmless t Why did it, after nil this, in its is sue of Friday morning, admit cditnrinlly that The Cnpitul Journal's view of tho matter was right and that section 17 tit the amended charter must bo elimin ated t Whv is it so insistent that this pur chase mntter be gone ahead' with when it knows, and says that section 17 must be amended, and with its usual cheerful optimism assorting it will then carry by a largo majority t Why is it trying to force the people to buy a plnnt that only about a year ago they emphatically said they did not want f Why does it insist, not on municipal ownership of water, but on tho purchase of this pluntf Why iliiea it back up tho expending of $100(1 of the taxpayers' money in finding out the estimated value of the Salem water company's plnnt, for thnt company f Why this tremendous rush to have the matter settled at once! Is it Bfraid some further colored gentleman will be found in tho woodpilef Why is it fighting tho water com pany's bnttlo for it, rather than stand ing with the people! These are just few question asked by the crapulent but cheerful idiot of The Journal. You will perceive that this idiot does not ask the "moral nplifter" of the Jinper up the street, why it classes him Ks nn idiot, lie knows. It Is because the evidence shews he is. If he wasn't be would never try to enlighten the cheerless gliinin, the somber curtained dark chambers in what should lie tin More " Direct Evidence " The blood-purifying, strength-giving properties of Hood's Sarsaparilla are brought into strong light by the following letter, which describes the cure of Mrs. Bearse, of Portsmouth, N. H. This is another of the thousands in our series of "Direct Evidence." jTy S XL.ELh'l OREGON (iflCAGOr) TOME N "45 Coffin Court, "Portsmouth, N. H., May 12, 1912. "C. I, Hood Co., Lowell, Mass. "The beginning of my trouble was a sore or nbscess that gathered In the Ipjlil DELIGHTFUL OPTIMISM, a i HAT'S the matter with you, John- TV nyf" asked a gontleman of a small boy he noticed with his head crooked to one side, and so busy munching an apple that be did" not have time to either wipe or work the recall on his nose. "Got a bile on my neck," was the brief answer, as he snuffled at his noBO drop, or pendant, or whatever you might call it. "That bad," was the consoling re ply. "Yep, pretty bad," said the kid, "but ma says it'll bust directly and then I'll feel better." A cheerful optimistic kid he was, and he reminds "one irresistibly of the Sa lem morning paper, which is as cheer ful under afflictions as Job himself. When the purchase of the water plant was suggested it chirped up and foresaw the completion of the job the city owning the waterworks and every body happy. When it was pointed out to it that the council had discretionary powers as to the time when it could order water mains extended, it at once re joiced because that fact vjould sottle all opposition to the purchase of the water plant, and satisfy tho vory eas ily satisfied voters of Salem. Its op timism is delightful, its cheerfulness commendable and its versatility really a matter of wonder. Tho Capital Journal takes especial pleasure in commending its neighbor's happy disposition, its childliko inno cence, and its ability to see good in everything, whether the public is be ing cinched or not. Mrs. Charles Boarse, Portsmouth, N. H. corner of my left eye. It discharged continuously for a year and eight months, and nothing seemed to heal It. I consulted eminent physicians, who said the eruption would never heal without a surgical operation. I was Much Run Down With Impure Blood, and dreaded to think of an operation. "I remembered that four years be fore I had taken Hood's Sarsaparilla with benefit, and I deckled to take it again for my very poor health. The medicine brightened me up, but my family physician advised me to discon tinue It, saying that It would not ngree with other troubles with which I was afflicted, so I stopped taktng It for some months, when, as the doctor had fulled to help rue further, I decided to take Hood's Sarsaparilla again. "After I had ued four bottles of Hood's Sarsaparilla the nbscess had a more healthy appearance and the dis charge wns less. When I had tuken seven bottles the sore had entirely dis appeared, leaving only a slight scar. When I told the doctor Hood's Sarsa parilla had cured me he was dumb founded, and said 'Hood's Sarsaparilla certainly has done wonders for you.' I think my blood was cured of humor, I had .better appetite and was In better health In every way. My husband can not say too much In praise of Hood's Sarsaparilla." Mrs. Chas. Bearse.

This wns intended to be real sarcastic no doubt on tho part of tho gentleman who, having secured a broador field for his talents is trying to uplift humanity nnd cinch the suburbs, but it isn't. It is the most unadulterated truth the gentleman ever told, though we do not accuse him of doing it intentionally. You see, the "crapulent idiot" of tho Capital Journnl convicted tho editor of the morning sheet out of the lattor's own mouth. This accounts for him so quickly recognizing the weapon. among the orchardists, contracting for a supply of apples for the vinegar factory. The Salem water company is in luck. It is getting a physical valuation of its plant made at an expense of only $1000. and tho city is paying that. Tho city engineer says "much of the concrete street paving laid in the past is unsatisfactory; some of the contrac tors used the wrong proportions and so tho paving lacked durability." Ho added: "It's all in the mixing." This is not cheerful news, and it Is sincerelv hoped tho city engineer will keep both Corner of Liberty and Center.
