The industrial section differs from the usual special edition in that it contains no fulsome puffs and write-ups, no fancy illus trations or hot air. . It is devoted exclusively to carefully com piled statistics, reliable and dependable data, striking' compar isons based upon authentic records, and logical conclusions as to the future drawn from these established facts. Surrounding these condensed statements of facts are the dis play advertisements of industries centered about ' Salem, which tell their own story. The endeavor has been to present a brief and business-like resume of our' resources that could be quickly comprehended and convince the most skeptical. The industrial section should . be mailed broadcast, lor no; vou that T can.t helD liklng, though ; stronger argument as to the impregnible strength of Salem's- it would be hard for me to say just Industrial and commercial position could be presented. v 9 The Curnenoer'g Promise When Buster Bumblebee told Whiicfiroi the Camenter Bee, that he hated to work, that honest artisan stared a this caller in astonishment.

Public Forum To the Editor: Welcome to the Klks who are here In our oity as vis itors. It Is commendable and benefit ting fur-Salem to decorate our city in their honor and use tho red, while and blue to do so bu,t why desecrate the most, sacrod emblem of that or der and of the state and nation by draping the flag all over our build ings? - ' No good citizen would wilfully Bland by and see our flag trampled upon, yot, when we stop to think, this is Just as much a desecration of its honor. It is forbidden by the laws of Ore iron to make a drapery of our flag and is-against the constitution of the United States and those using it In such a manner subject themselves to Ui liability et prosecution. What does the flag symbolize? The declaration of the principles of the nation it represents. When will the American citizen learn to respect our national emb lem? Yours for the protection of our flag, A LOYAL AMERICAN. THE ISSUE OF THE CAMPAIGN Senator Harding, in his keynote campaign speech accepting; the republican presidential nominataion, rejects the League of Nations and the treaty of Versailles and declares for the negotia tion of a separate peace with Germany by congressional resolu tion, thus defining definately the republican position. As the candidate of the Old Guard, Senator Harding runs true to form. His position is that of the republican senate leaders, whose every effort has been the rejection of the peace treaty or its nullification by reservations. The ambigious republican plat form, designed to catch votes for the league and votes against the league, is thus shown to be mere camouflage. The aims of Johnson and Borah are revealed as synonymous with those of Lodge and Harding only their methods differ. Now they have dropped subterfuge and openly unite in a common cause war upon the League of Nations. . - ' Mr. Harding offers, after peace has been made by resolution and the league rejected, to propose an "international understand ing" to "promote world harmony" without "impairing American sovereignty." The language of the Old Guard. The league is in actual existence and the only way America can promote world harmony is to join the league talkrfo the contrary is "bunk" as Herbert Hoover has put it. Of all the many falsehoods used to discredit the League of Nations, the most preposterous is the one that it creates a super state, or in any way imperils the sovereignty of the member nations. The League has been in existence for some months. It has not impaired the sovereignty of any of the nations. It is only an experiment and its future depends solely upon the eood faith of the participants. If it fails, it will be due to just such miser able intrigues as those conducted by the. United States senate. As to separate peace with Germany, Senator Lodge as chair man of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, publicly pro claimed, when the suggestion was first made, that it would make the Uiited States "guilty of the blackest crime. " He said: If we send our armies and young men abroad to be killed and wounded in northern France and Flanders with no result but this, our entrance in the war with such an intention was a crime which nothing can Justify. The intent of Congress and the intent of the President was that there could be no peace until we could create a situation where no such war as this could recur. We cannot make peace except in company with our allies. It would brand us with everlasting dishonor and bring ruin to us also. If we undertook to make a separate peace." Yet this is what the republican party and the republican candidate for president propose and what they will commit the United States to, in case' of election in November, a policy to "brand us with dishonor and bring ruin" and nullify the work of our armies abroad. Thus have the maneuvers of the Old Guard been crowned with success, uecreemg the death of the treaty before it was writr. rejecting concessions and creating new objections, concealing c.uiHiy unuer pretense oi tnendship, seeking nullification r.nrniio-li omnnTvinvif A , . .. . : , ... 0.. u...x..iUicllb anu xcacivauuii. auueaiiner to racial ammiw. ities and conducting a propaganda of misrepresentation, slander aim lausenoou, cnanting a hymn of hate, a small senate minority nave succeeded, through control of nartv selection of one of their number as candidate, in forcing the icpuuucan party, irom its attitude of friendliness on the part of l"c " me to tne treaty, into one of open hostility. l "What's the matter?" what it is so please don't ask me!" "Then you'll make me a house, af ter all?" Buster cried joyfully. "I will," the Carpenter promised, "just as soon as I finish the addition I'm building to my own home:" "Good!" said Buster. And wish ing the Carpenter Bee a hasty good afternoon, he flew off to find little Mrs. Ladybug and tell her that he was going to have a house of his know. ,.. tnat ii she had suggested After that the news spread quick ly, for Mrs. Ladybug was somewhat of a gossip in a pleasant enough way. Being much interested in her neighbors, she liked to talk about their affairs. And now she told everyone that Buster Bumblebee was going to have ', a fine new house, and that the Carpenter was going to buld it for him. Naturally, Buster's friends all told him that they were glad to hear of his good fortune. And whener any one mentioned the matter, Buster promptly invited him to come to a oartv that he intended to give as soon as his new home was ready to move into. "Mrs. Ladybug tells me that ought to have a house-warming, Buster explained. And though some of his neighbors didn't know what hv that, they said "Of course!" and tried to look wise. Theer was only one thing about the whole affair that annoyed Bus ter: when people asked him when his new house would be finished he was unable to tell them. "Well, when is the Carpenter going to start building it?" they would ask. And he could only reply that as soon as the Carpenter completed the addition to his own house he had promised to begin to build Busters. Now, many people were satisfied with that answer. But there were some, they were the curios ones, that insisted on knowing exactly when that would be. And then there was nothing that Buster Bumblebee could do except to admit that he did'nt Democratic Convention Snap-Shots The Story of Nominations By A. H. VANDENBERG Tho Convention of 1904 " Three high spots stand out in the story of the democratic national con ventlon of 1904, which met in St. Louis on July 6 (1) the unsuccessful effort to galvanize ex-President Grov er Cleveland onto a-enewed leader ship; (2) the party power of Will lam Jennings Bryan even when par tially in eclipse; (3) the spectacular insistence of Judge Alton B. Park?r of New York upon the "gold stand ard" ere he would accept the con vention's nomination for president. John Sharp Williams o Missis sippi was temporary chairman of the convention. He precipitated the con vention's first great demonstration when he pronounced a glowing eu- flced to have a plank upholding the "gold standard" struck out. At 5:40 o'clock in the morning of July 9. after an all night session the convention took its first and only presidential ballot. It stands on the official record as giving Judge Alton B. Parker of New York exactly a two thirds majority with 667 votes. Wil liam R. Hearst was in second place with 196 votes, and a field of 11 other candidates divided the rtmnant of 165 votes. Henry G. Davis of West Virginia was then nominated for vice presi dent on a single roll call, which was made unanimous after an original division showed Davis with 654 votes against a field of three as follows: logy upon Cleveland, whose name) James R.

Ik LOVE and MARRIED LIFE By the Noted Author IDAH McGLONE GIBSON had been prominently featured in pre-convention gossip and negotia tions for many weeks. This ovation, however, was as far as the Cleveland movement, ever went. His name did not appear upon the ultimate roil call. Champ Clark of Missouri was per manent chairman of the convention. The rules committee re-adopted the historic old "two thirds rule" by a vote of 24 to 4. Bryan lost his first skirmish when an Illinois contest for seats was decided against Bry an's minority report from the com George Turner, Washington, 100; ex Senator William' A. Harris, Kansas, 58. As soon as the hews of the conven tion's action reached him at his honu, Judge Parker wired that he could not accept the nomination except as the convention understood him to "regard the gold standard as firmly and Irrevocably established." There upon, by a vote of 774 to 191, the convention passed a resolution that it did not regard the question of the monetary standard as "i possible is sue in the campaign," and there was mittee on credentials, by a vote of nothing in the views expressed in 647 to 299, on the floor of the con-1 Parker's wire to preclude his accept vention.

But, thinking it over, I knew that I had told the truth. I could not remember a man whom I did not like individually, and yet when I thought of men as a sex I almost hated them.

Miss Parker made no comment, but I was a little curious to know just what she was thinking, for there was a peculiar look In her face. "You look relieved," I said. "Oh, I beg vour pardon," she said quickly "I did not mean to show my thought. but if I hn allowed. mvl dear Mrs. Gordon, I will say that! the only trouble I have ever ex perienced in nursing in families has come from older people, who thought they had a right, not because of. any training "or special fitness for the work, but solely because of age,1 to know better what to do in all cases than I, or anyone else. It is said, Mrs. Gordon, that are almost always brings selfishness and conceit in its train. I have rarely met an old per son wno could say to-me, "Yes, my dear, I have been through all these things which you are going through now, but, take heart, take courage.
