BIBLE THOUGHT FOR TODAY
When Christ, who ia our life, shall appear, then shall ye
also appear with him in glory. Cnlossiavs 8:4.
We Report Progress
Progress of raising the necessary money to finance the
proposed $640,000 linen mill is slow, but we hope none the less
sure. Of the $300,000 required from Salem, practically two
thirds is in sight. The balance must be raised, some way or
other, or else Salem might as well abandon efforts for indus
trial progress and rest content in the lethargy of somnolent
state capitals.
It is a matter of regret that so many of our well-to-do
investors, who put their money into stocks and bonds of
distant places, and some of our large property owners, and a
' few of our most prosperous business men, who will benefit
mc:t, are so lacking in public spirit and community enter
prise that they refuse cooperation in this effort to secure
the valley a great industry and the city a payroll but the
mossbacks, like the poor, we have with us always, more
perhaps than our share in Salem.
What makes a mossback ? Our contemporary, the Wood
burn Independent, says its the heavy atmosphere that is
responsible in western Oregon and that it takes so long to get
a new idea into an aborigines head, that the originator
becomes similarly affected, loses ambition and pep and also
becomes languid. It says :
The newcomer in a western Oregon locality cornea from a lighter
atmosphere, consequently for the nonce le full of vigor and bright
thoughts. He is surprised at the leisure ot brain and body exemplified
by many with whom he has cast his lot. He looks around, notices
exceptionally rich resources, where there should be development and
there Is none, becomes imbued with good, workable schemes, but
(alters in giving vent to his imagination.
Why? Because he finds the "aborigines', though weighed down
with tons of atmonphcre until fishing time or when a vacation is due
a stone wall as it were the greatest philosophic objectors on earth.
The least whispered unearthing of discovery, he frars, will seem like a
clarion call and summon an army of philosophers with spectacles
through which a clear view cannot be obtained.
So our knocking philosophers have their myopic spectacles
on and are doing their best to build the community by tearing
down, to attract capital by driving it out, and to encourage
enterprise by pe: ;imistic prediction of financial failure, and
really showing some pep in the only way they ever show it,
preventing somebody else from doing something.
Nevertheless, we are glad to report progress and predict
eventual success, and believe that Salem will make good in
financing the linen mill because we have more live ones than
dead ones.
TODAY'S CROSS WORD PUZZLE
Be Sports for Once
Again we have talk of a recall being invoked against
Governor Pierce by "sportsmen", this time because he
removed one of his own appointees, Ben Dorris, as game com
missioner, without giving any reason. An equally good man
was appointed, so the service hasn't suffered, if it did lose its
leading kluxer. Perhaps the Klan, or its corpse, figures on
taking its embalmed recall petition of two years ago out of
storage.
Of course the removal of Dorris was politics, but the game
commission itself is politics and exists to furnish a fat payroll
for an army of heelers who do little except travel about at
public expense enjoying the scenery in 'summer and playing
pinochle in winter. The entire game machine could be abol
ished without materially affecting wild life or our rapidly
dwindling game resources.
The Capital Journal does not believe in the recall, tho there
exists real causes enough, but the removal of a disloyal
appointee for double-crossing the appointor, is not among
them. The "sportsmen" voted almost unanimously for the
governor and ought to be sport.8 enough for once to take their
own medicine and pretend to like it. If they don't, they will
get a second dose.

This situation is the direct result of Governor Pierce's
