"Salem is to get aew $75,000 fruit cannery this ' 'year, arid it already has more such industries than , J any other city in the Northwest. That is. one result of' specializing. Years ago the land for miles about J' '-in all. directions' from Salem was cut up into small . tracts, to be devoted to fruit, berry and vegetable , : .n growing,, and the results are now apparent. Several -. large; canneries, dehydrating plants, juice factories, ; f ' prune packing warehouses and jam and jelly factories are located there because the raw material is close at v hand to keep them running. All these plants have J; been increasing in size from year to 'year until they t' employ many hundreds of workers during the busy 7, season and quite a number throughout the year. The I fruit and the vegetables must be produced first that s j .it the surest way of getting such industries and keep-" Jng them after they do come."

' ; u , Oregon does not want a gover nor, and Salem does not want a mayor representing 'any special interest, Klan, class, cult, creed. color or country. The heads of oar state and municipal govern ment should represent the whole people. ' - . , ; ; ' , It would be a fine thing if every person in the United States with intelligence enough to un derstand it could hear, the words of Col. C. E. Dentler,. scb as he employed in his short address to the Salem Rotary club at the noon luncheon of yesterday. ' He "how ed that there is great economy in reasonable military preparedness, to say nothing of safety; that if this country had had since it be came a nation such a state pf pre paredness as is provided for un der the present system. Canada would hare been a part of the United States: the Civil war would have been either avoided or it would have been a very short conflict, and the y orld war would hare cost this country enough less that the interest on the money, to pay the difference - would more than keep up the system now pro vided for. The state militia sys tem we now have will when fully functioning put constantly at the call of the president 500,000 men, ready for action any where, any time, on 24 hours 'notice; and, a million men in 60 days; and that Is enough. And tnese 500,000 fighting men, under the present system, cost only one-seventh of what a similar number would cost a-standing - army.
