Considerable discussion is going on
relative to the quality of the Salem
water. Some contend that it is per
fectly pure, while others assert that it
is full of wingless microbes and other
dangerous animals. There are certain
ritixeiiH in every nnmmnnitv who are'
hIwhvs ready to slander the water.
Jow the water of Toledo, for instance,
is good enough for anyhody, yet we re
cently heard au old-time-citizen de
clare that it is bad very bad. He said
he knew what he was talking
about, for he tasttd it onre sev
eral years ago. We remember, also)
that while we were in Salem last winter
State Printer Joe Whitney warned us
to beware of the water, informing us on
the quiet that he never drank it.
While we thus briefly touch upon the
important subject, we do not wish to
ba understood as taking sides in the
tipntixi Rnd learned discuooiun. ,

William Jennings Bryan of Nebraska
isugaiu engaged in the pleasant and
solf-imposed duty of telling President
llooHeyelt and our natioual lawmakers
how to tun the governmental machin
ery. Tho Nebraska etge and his theo
ries have been turned down by the
people several times, bat that separates
no congealed aqua with Billy. Al
though fairly reeking in prosperity
himself, he continues to cut loose pro
bono publioo. Billy is an amusing
ligure. When he retires the stage will
lose the greatest comedian of his day.
The days are gliding swiftly by and
Portland on hotels is shy. Of course,
the visitors to the Lewis and Clark
Fair in 1905 can be accommodated In
tents furnished with sheetiron stoves
and canvas cots, or the gambling
houses' might be temporarily converted
into sleeping apartments and the visit
ors could munch redhot weinerwurst
or tamales on the street corners. They
needn't be afraid to come. Climate is
about all they'll need in the line of nee
rosaries and we've got tho climate.
