TWO MONUMENTS IN SALEM "He has achieved success who has made the world better, whether by an improved poppy, a perfect poem or a rescued soul, is a maxim in the Lions clubs " says the Portland Jour nal, which newspaper goes on to say : "Jndo-P J H.

It isn t nec essary to be a statesman or a high puouc oinciai ior uxe w be successful. The carman on his platform, who threads his way through the busy street and with a smile protects his passengers, fills his niche. The nurse in the hospital, the street cleaner in overalls and all the others in the grand army of workers who faithfully do their tasks, pass on in their time and leave the world better than they found it. Judge Logan was a lawyer. He was also an authority on finance, ana a busy man of affairs. It was out of the combat of a stren uouu life that he took time to experiment in horticulture with the consequent development of a small fruit that made indus try for thousandsjind pleasure for millions. ThA Journal writer makes a slight mistake. In his garden at Santa Cruz. Cat., where he then lived, Judge Logan at tempted to cross the local wild blackberry with the Texas Ear ly (or Auirinbaugh), a cultivated blackberry. But he had planted some Red Antwerp raspberries in the same garden. and his experiments in cross-fertilization produced an unex pected result so the loganberry is a cross between the Auginbaugh blackberry and the Red Antwerp raspberry ; and it has never varied from the first production in the Logan garden. It runs true to form in all the generations. But that dees not matter much, except for exactness Judge Logan deserves a. monument. The monument should be in Salem, where the loganberry as a commercial product was started; started by Dr. J. A. Richardson, afterwards mayor of Salem; extended by Alec Lafollette, state senator from Marion county. There should be several monuments, the second one to Mrs. W. P. Lord, who was the mother of the flax industry. The Oregon Linen Mills is to do something in this line for a memorial to Mrs. Lord. Perhaps that may be adequate. Judge Logan gave to Salem the king of bush fruits, worth millions to this district destined to develop into an indus try hundreds of times larger than it is now. discovery that one of them haa Abused his power by a petty display of authority Is viewed as a national disgrace. What would happen in England, if a London Bobble should makfe such a brutal and unwarranted attack upon an inoffen sive citizen, as was made by Patrolman Nichols the other night upon an individual whose crime was incorrect parking of an automobile? In the Portland case, if needs no parlia mentary inquiry to prove the blows, which have left their own purple evidence on the flesh of the victim. In the face of that irrefutable evidence, the big policeman protests that he can't remember hitting the man who was the object of his wrath. What can be said of an officer who has such slight control of his own temper, that a minor incident brings on a brain storm so violent that it leaves no mark upon the memory? If a policeman can't keep his head in an emergency, what good is he, anyhow? What is he for, if not to stand as the represen tative of sanity in the midst of emotional excitement, of im partial justice in the turmoil of lawlessness and crime? We can not expect respect for law unless its sworn guard ians are themselves respectable. So long as we allow uniform ed bullies to believe that they are above the laws they are meant to enforce, law enforcement will continue to be farce. Portland muddles hopelessly along, wondering why gamb lers flourish, vice festers and burglaries multiply, while many of the stalwart police expend their energies chalking tires and beating up unarmed and peaceful citizens. The above, from the Portland Telegram, tends to make our people appreciate the efficiency of our Salem police force Keeping order and making Salem one of the best regulated cities in the country, though the number we have is only nail tne standard for the country which is a man to a thou sand population. In Salem we have a man to about 2000 pop ulation w De protected; and our people are scattered over a wide territory, too. Our streets are wide and our building lots large. On Sundays, week days, holidays and all, even without an hour off on account of illness, Elmer Bates, telegraph oper ator at the Southern Pacific depot, Salem, has for eight years been at his post from 4 p. m. till midnight without a break He has held his present position 20 years. He has gone to Waldport, Oregon, on a vacation and a wonder is whether one so constantly at his post will know what to do with the leisure hours of a holiday. Portland Journal. R. A. Harris of Salem made the Oregon state library a present of the complete file of the "Stars and Stripes," Am erican army newspaper published during the World war in Paris. It makes a thin book. That book is now worth $1000. Cornelia Marvin, state librarian, has offered the book back to Mr. Harris. He has refused to take it. What would you do? What is the right of this matter ? "He is entitled to the vote of every citizen who would re establish the open sale of liquor in the land and call back the saloon with all its infamies," says the Christian Scince Moni tor, speaking of Al Smith. He surely is. Distinguished Musicians Heard at Roberts Studio STAYS BY HIS FRIENDS Through the courtesy of Profes sor and Mrs. T. S. Roberts, more than 100 music lovers of Salem were privileged to hear two dis tinguished visiting artists. Daniel L. Philippi of St. Louis, Missouri, and Lucien E. Becker of Port land, In concert last evening at the Roberts' studio on North Summer street. The two organists were assist ed by Mrs. Ethel Moore Miller, soprano soloist In the Unitarian church of Meadville, Pennsylvania. who is the house guest of her brother-in-law and sister. Dr. and Mrs. Martin F. Ferrey. for the summer. Mr. Philippi who is organist of Christ church cathedral of St. Louis was deeply Impressed by the three-manual Guenther organ 6n - which he played last night which he characterized as being exquisitely voiced and comparable to any of the best eastern Instru ments. He was particularly 'pleased with the solo stops which , , (he used to advantage throughout company did Al a wonderfully fine turn a few months ago. his program. The guest organist opened the evening with a group of three in teresting numbers: "Overture to Occasional Oratorio" (Handell). (Corvallis Gazette-Times) In alt the stories sent out about Al Smith, one of the traits most prominently mentioned is that he "stands by his friends." Personally, we think that is a trait much to be ad mired. It is a part of the lesson he learned as a cog in the Tammany machine and one that many people could learn greatly to their advantage. That Al does just that is strikingly illustrated in his selec tion of a new Democratic chairman of the national commit tee. John Raskob would hardly have been selected by Al a year ago, at least we think not. It would have been much better politics in view of the religious antagonisms already engendered in this campaign for Al to have selected a Pro tectant. But, Mr. Raskob, president of the General Motors Raskob himself came up to his present position from a New York street car conductor. Having the hankering for political prtferment that so many men have when they get rich and want the prestige that goes with it, Raskob sought to be Al's financial adviser. When it was decided to give General Mo tors stock a skyward leaping habits Raskob put Al wise to the deal and advised him to blow himself. He was thus taken by Raskob and the DuPonts for a free ride and when -the end of the journey was reached, Al was sitting pretty with a 1250,000 profit made in six months time. That's the story they are telling in the east where it was predicted several weeks ago that Al would run true to form and remember his friend Raskob by making him national chairman. Raskob can be depended upon to do his durndest and if Al is elected, Ras kob s ambition will have been achieved, the street car con ductor becomes persona grata at the White House and co boss with Al in telling office seekers where to head in. Poli tics is a great game, but, as for us we hold it a most com xnendable trait for a man to stick to his friends. "Music of the Sprite" (Gluck). and "The Swan" (Saint Saena). the last of which was his own ar rangement. Mrs. Miller thrilled her au ence with her dramatic lnterpre-! tation of the difficult and beauti ful aria "Hear Ye O Isreal" from "Elijah." Mr. Philippi accom panied the singer. Tne emmes in the echo organ dominated "Evening Bells and Cradle Song" by McFarlane. "The Passacaglia" which was Mr. Phil- ippi's outstanding -number, was notable for its fluent pedal tech nique. The audience was Immensely stirred by Mr. Becker's piano so lo. "To My Heart and to My Soul" mi ISSUE LOOMS U HI BATE U Kansas-City Man Declares Uore Shipments Coming West Recently PORTLAND. Of., July II. (AP) A new Issue cropped oat momentarily here today at the In terstate commerce hearing oa grain rate. The middle west en tered the picture In the person of Walter R. Scott, secretary and transportation commissioner of the Kansas City board of trade. Scott had followed the series of grain bearings under the Hoch Smith resolution sines they start ed, and was one of the heaviest contributors to the records of tes timony at sessions held in Wichi ta, Kansas, and Chicago. His activities today were limit ed to brief cross-examination of A. M. Chrystall. grain buyer for the Crown Mills and Balfour. Outhrle A Co. Chrystall has been on the stand two days. In an inXormal statement at the close of the session. Scott said he had two interests in the Portland hearing; the study of grain mar keting methods as compared with the system developed in the mid dle west, and the proposed reduc tion in rates In the northwest. Since the last reduction in grain rates from Idaho, and Montana to tidewater, he said, there had been a noticeable Increase In movement from those states to Pacific coast ports without a comparable la crease in production -a fact he in terpreted to mean that grain which formerly went to midwest markets was now going west. Chrystall. under cross-examination by railroad attorneys, Seat tle representatives, and examiners Mackley and Hall of the Inter state commerce commission, re peated his testimony of yesterday in which he asserted there was no price fixing collusion among Port land grain dealers and that there was no Juggling of prices. W. L. Teutsch of Corvallis, as sistant county agent leader, who will appear as a disinterested wit ness at the request of the inter state commerce commission, was present today but was not called to the stand. He Is scheduled to appear next Tuesday and tell what he knows of the financial troub les of Oregon farmers.

After the funeral procession participated in by 10,000 troops and a score of airplanes, the cas ket, draped with the flags of two nations, was placed on a pedestal in the middle of Seventh avenue before the Pennsylvania station for full military salute to the. dead.

LAWS AND THE police jr ' (Portland Telegram) Because a Scotland Yard policeman was found to have sub jected an innocent young woman to a rude and embarrassing interrogation, the whole of England is aroused. The facts were proved before an extraordinary tribunal appointed by parliament, and the affair has raised such a storm of public indignation that Sir William Horwood, commissioner of the metropolitan police, has resigned and no less av man than General Lord Byng, the famous hero of Vimy Ridge, has been appointed to take his place and "clean up the disgrace ful conditions in Scotland Yard.

In a brief keynote address the opposition to the New Yorker was no reason for ques tioning the democracy of a south ern man or woman.

Bishop Cannon. one of those who called the con ference went into executive ses sion There were about 200 men and women in attendance. An opening meeting was called to night. Dr. Barton declared that the prohibition laws have been men-! aced by the nomination of Govern or Smith. "I am a democrat and therefore opposed to Al Smith," he said. "In that. I think I voice the ideas of an overwhelming number of dem ocrats of southern states. "This conference was called be cause of a serious moral crisis in the life of the nation.

PEACE TREATY MOVE BACKED BY 6 NATIONS (Coatianod from pafa I.) ' vakia would come in before the end of the week. While Secretary Kellogg made no effort to conceal his gratifica tion over the promptness with which the 14 nations to which the revived draft of his proposals was transmitted last month have signi fied their desire to be numbered among the original signatories. any formal expression or speci fic plans for the ceremony of sig nature must await the notes from the other governments. pMa-daed.xm, 1 a adn adn adno The secretary Is known to be particularly gratified that none of the powers has found it necessary to propose amendment of the next, of the treaty Itself in any way or the attaching to the pact of any supplementary interpretative doc ument. He has been desirous from the first that the new peace treaty should be as simple and di rect In language as It was pos sible to make it and that It should not be encumbered nor any doubr be cast upon Its major purposes by supplementary protocols or ex planatory notes. The treaty will be thrown open to adherence by all countriea of the world after it has been signed by the original group of powers and becomes effective, which will be automatic when instruments of retiflcation required under the constitutional provisions of each government which will be custo dian of these documents. The Washington government already has had indications from several countries not In the original group of their desire to signify adherence at the earliest possible moment. Meeting to be in Paris It still appears likely that tho place of signature will be In Paris as the capital of the Nation as sociated with the United Statet in working out this new effort to conserve world peace. Whether ratifications will be deposited with the Paris government or In Wash ington also remains to be settled by informal exchanges when plans for signature are completed. There seems little doubt among either Washington officials or members of the Interested diplo matic missions In Washington, however, that the premiers pr foreign ministers of the original signatory countries will assemble to sign the document in behalf of their governments and that Secre tary Kellogg will affix his name as representing the United States and also at the same time con summate the most far-reaching ac complishment of his public career.
