, ' (Journal Special Service.)
BALEM, April 7. Something of a
sensation was created in this city by
v the publication in the Salem Sentinel
ng 9alUo5x' iinjiaiaman Ajojs s jo
: perintendent Wents ot the Oregon
Deal Mute School The paper cited
instances In which small children had
been severely castigated, and told of
a cruel whipping administered to sev
eral young women of the Institution.
The Journal representative interviewed-
Secretary of State Dunbar
and, Superintendent of Public Instruc
tion. Ackerman relative to that part
? of , the Sentinel article that said jn
investigation would probably be or
dered, but these- gentlemen declared
' that there was no foundation for the
statement Secretary Dunbar, In fact,
said the superintendent was not strict
enough. ':;-'&- 4;'.
'Superintendent Went was also In
terviewed. He said some of the larg
er boys had poisoned - bis ds and
that he had mildly chastised some of
thera for it: He added: "We have
had much trouble with some of the
larger scholars, and I was compelled
to punlsn rive girls with a little rid
ing whip. Four of these were simply
struck lightly twice, but the other
girL Rhoda Phillips,, about 17 years
old, was grossly impudent and as she
has been particularly intractable was
wnlpped more severely than the oth
" srs, but not so severely, however, as
to leave any marks upon her body.
The statement that 10 children have
been withdrawn from the- school by
taeir parents as a result or the oe-
rurrence is not the case. Only three
lave gone for that cause."
In addition to the above, Mr. Wentz
lays that great difficulty is encoun
tered in curbing the vicious tenden
cies of many of the older pupils and
that ' the strictest villgance is neces
sary to prevent them from becoming
immoral and obscene. '
In brief, both the superintendent
- and the teachers make emphatic de
nial bf the troth of the charges.
. Still quite a number of outsiders
wonder if the authority is vested in
Superintendent Wentz to whip young
women at any time he deems corporal
punishment necessary. An investiga
tion would be made if Governor Geer
was a candidate for re-election.
on the company, which 'the corpora
tion refused to pay. The town au
thorities threatened to cut down or
dig up the telephone poles and was
enjoined from so doing. Judge Bel
linger today ordered a further in
junction until the case is tried on its
merits.
The suit of David Keith vs. J. H.
Parker came up in the United States
Circuit Court today on a demurrer to
an amended answer. The case will
be tried tomorrow.

MEDFORD ENJOINED

The enterprising city of Medford is

company. The suit of the Sunset

in the United States Circuit Court
for an airing.

NOTHING DONE.

In - reply to Secretary Moore's let
ter regarding plans for entertaining
Mr, Harrlman, Manager R, Koehler of
the Southern Pacific states that he
was not .informed of Mr. Harriman's
plans, but presumed that he would
extend his trip to the Northwest. The
letter was referred to the general
manager at San Francisco.
To all consignees of -shipments
front the East which are long over
due, The Journal can glre some
pleasing information. It Is perfectly
natural that business menb6 put
in their orders a long time ago for
goods, and who have been compelled
to see the days slip by, one after an
other, without bringing them' in,
should get impatient It is likewise
not to be wondered at that they
should feel like protesting more or
less forcibly to the Northern Pacific,
the Great Northern and the Harrlman
lines against these aggravating de
lays. '
It should be remembered that the
Northern lines have been flocked
twice within a very recent period by
snow and water In North Dakota.
These delays from natural causes
these lines were in.no wise to blame
for, and it has been to their interest
to spare neither labor nor money to
restore service as rapidly as possible,
and they have done so.
Along the roads comprising me
Harrlman system local troubles of the
nort afflicting Its Northern competi
tors have happily been largely want
ing.
Shippers should bear in mind that
in addition to the delays above noted,
there have been serious troubles af
fecting connecting lines In the East
as well. The tie-ups by disastrous
floods at Pittsburg aie of too recent
occurrence to be readily forgotten
The fact that not less than 127 miles
of track along the line of the Mew
York Central impeding the passage of
freleht should not be forgotten.- The
inundations on the Erie, on the Dela
ware, Lackawanna & Western, on the
Lehigh Valley, on the west Shore and
the Immense accumulations of snow
on the lines east of . Buffalo have
greatly added to the embarrassment
As the result ot all this trouble
there has been a tremendous glut of
congested freight at Chicago, Minne
sota Transfer and other transfer
points. Millions ot dollars hare been
ovnendeH to combat the disastrous af
fects of the nowers of nature. Tbs
Lehigh Valley, for example, has Just
gotten its line into shape so that it
can run trains over it clear through
without transferring to the New Jer
sey Central. Immense sums of
money have been poured out Ilk
ter In restoring expensive onages
which were torn away by the rushing
floods. L .
Now that the Eastern line hat
been cleared of debris, tracks hare
been relald. bridges and culverts re
built and new embankments maae, as
enormous mass of freight is motlnl
westward. One traffic official gat It
as his oolnion today that the local
forces of freight handlers would hat
to be greatly Increased to dispose, of
it, and thought that if he should. su-
mate that the force of freight nana
lers would be made double their pres
ent number. It would be only a con
servative estimate. He thought that
within the next 10 days Portland
would be likely to see the greatest
atnount of freight ever poured in here
as compared with any corresponding
period of the history of freight con
signments here.

"Cleanliness Is Next to Godliness"
Is a Proverb that is nowhere more applicable than in dentistry.
. Cleanliness absolute, chemical cleanliness, i essential to guard
against transmission of disease from patient to patient. We em
ploy a number of lady attendants whose duty it is to disinfect each
instrument with antiseptics as soon as it is used.
Tooth troubles-are progressive, and hence decayed teeth should
be attended to at once. We aim never to extract a tooth except
r when absolutely necessary. Our system of extracting, and of crown
and bridge work is absolutely painless.
"IT DIDN'T HURT A BIT."
We employ only skilled specialists of long experience. No
dental students about the place, fifteen years established in Port
