THE SALEM OF THE FUTURE
V I
Col. E. Iloferyin his article in The Statesman of yester
'day morning, '.visions an inland valley city of the future that
.will be a rival of Portland
Afid he probably means. Salem. -' - :
J With the full development of the central Willamette
.valley Jand in producing what It is capable of being made to
produce, and the manufacturing and packing and shipping
and : merchandising of these products here and with still
'water ;in the j Willamette river, for barges i and boats, Salem
j 1 And these are certainties, of, tne.future-- ;j
: j With also the development; of-all s'oUri potential water
powers and the general, use of 'water on 'the land, for irri
gation, , - f ; ,v 4y r
i Take" the flax and linen industries.-alone. Irt Belfast,
Ireland; there" is maintained a city of about a half million
population, almost exclusively supported by the linen indus
tries ; and with only about fifteen per cent of the raw product
furnished locally, whereas it can be all' grown here, almost
; within eyeshot of the mills.
And there are many other products almost as important
: that will be city builders here. This is the land of diversity.'
v Eugene has the same chance, almost, with still water in
the Willamette carried that far
So these will always be rival cities; Eugene and Salem
and there will finally be what will amount to almost a solid
city along the banks of the Willamette river .all the way up
.to Eugene, and all the way down to Portland.

Upon the recommendation of
the city librarian and Superin

in the opinion that a contract

Bids for supplying material, need

OPEN REBELLION
SEEN IN SYRIA
(Continued from pt 1.)
because conditions are normal and
peace reigns in Syria.
This view is frankly not shared
by the military authorities here as
even their official communiaucs
show, l During the week of June
14 to 21 not less than 2000 shells
and bombs were fired by French
batteries upon the villages and
gardens surrounding Damascus.
Machine gun and rifle fire has
been virtually Incessant. The
communiques reveal sharp fight
ing in various villages and on the
Lebanon-Syrian "frontier.
The official communiques, as
published during the past week
read :
'June 15: The village of Jube
in the region of 'Nebek was occu
pied this morning after keen re
sistance from the enemy on the
hills of Bahka. At 11 o'clock the
-village of Assal also was occupied.
fJane 16: The French troons
ted by artillery effected en-
ira . into the village of Tire and
returned to Soueida without in-
cUttiit. : In the region of Salfchad,
af column marched upon the vil
lage of In tarn which was occupied
at 10 o'clock.
"June 17: This morning in the
region of Rankus, a detachment
attacked the village from the west
while a second detachment charg
ed the rebels occupying the hills
to the east The enemy positions
were captured after a brilliant
combat. The enemy left 40 dead
upon the field of battle.
"June 18: It Is 107 dead enemy
left behind after the storming et
Rankus, instead of 40 as given
out yesterday." v
A second communique of "June
18: "The train from Aleppo "to
Beirut was halted north of Baal
beck by rebel bands who cut the
railroad tracks, fired upon the
armored train and' burned the sta
tion and village of Laboue.

prison.
Cutting their way .through the
roof of the cell house and lower
ing themselves by a rope down
the front of the administration
building into the prison yard the
four convicts made their ay to
freedom.
Jones was killed just after he
had gained the outside of the pris
on wall. The other three were re?
captured after a spectacular man
hunt participated in by scores of
citizens.
Brought to trial for the killing
of Sweeney, the three survivors
of the break were found guilty of
first degree murder and sentenced
to hang.
Willos and Kelly were to have
paid the supreme penalty for their
crime on January 8, last, but re
ceived a stay of sentence when
they filed their appeal to the su
preme court.
Murray, evidently despairing of
escaping the noose, took bis own
life by hanging himself in his cell
on the night of May 8.
One of the contentions raised
by atorneys for Willos and Kelly
in an effort to save the lives of
the two convicts was the fact that
they were at the time of the es
cape and killing already serving a
sentence for prior crime which
they contended precluded their
sentence on another charge.

the court to this contention. "
"They .complained of being in
carcerated in solitary confinement
and-being fed but one meal a
day and the like," the opinion
points out. They contend that this
had a tendency , to impair their
health and to render them appre
hensive of death or great bodily
harm. They argue that they were
entitled to act as they, did in self-
defense.
"Even if they had the right to
escape that would not include the
right to kill to effect their pur
pose," is the answer or me court
to this contention. "There is noth

Imminent danger ot death or great

"The only imminent danger of
death or great bodily harm to
which the ' defendants were sub
jected at any time as disclosed by
the record occurred during iheir
escape from tbe prison when tbe
guards were shooting at them to
prevent their escape. This was a
situation brought about by their
own wrong-doing and furnishes
uu ground for any instruction on
self-defense. Mere irksomeness or
rigor of Imprisonment will not
iustify convicts in killing their

Non-Carbonizing Western
Aristo Motor Oil is dl lubrication, containing
neither paraffin nor asphalt. The hard, flinty
abrasive "carbon" that; many motorists find on
valves, cylinder heads arid spark plugs after a few
thousand miles of use never comes from this fine
Western oil.
The small amount of residue that Aristo leaves
is a fine, soft, fluffy substance, most of which
blows out with the exhaust.
Motors in good condition which are lubricated
with Aristo, therefore, j run several years with
out the troubles, lay-ups and expense so often
due to "carbon." j '
v A further preventative of "carbon" is the use '
of non-detonating Union Gasoline with -Aristo -Motor
Oil. This combination is probably the
most effective that is known.
