IX COALAIKMORATrON of its fiftioth anniversary as a daily newspaper, the Portland Oregonian on February issued an elaborate edition, comprising a resume of the progress of Portland and Oregon, the resources and devel opment of the state, replete with illustrations, making it valuable as advertising literature. By far the most interesting section is that devoted to the Oregonian's own history, telling of the first issue of the daily, when Portland had but 15000 inhabitants, its early struggles and accomplishments in the half century since. Through all the long period, the paper has been under the management of II. W. Pittock, and the paper is the monument of his life work, and a fine monument in deed. When the first Oregonian appeared, Oregon was but a sparsely settled country. Port Sumpter had still to be fired upon. Indians still roamed along the Rogue. The newspa per's history is so interwoven with the history of the state that they arc almost inseparable, for during all the long period since 'OL the Oregonian has ever been an important factor in the social, political and industrial life of the state and its upbuilding probably the most important factor and the completion of its fiftieth year finds it the greatest journal in the northwest, ranking among the first in the nation. The Oregonian is to be congratulated, not only upon its anniversary number, but upon its record of accomplishment. PLANT THE SHADE TREES NOW. N' OYV is the time to plant add so much to the beauty ol the city and the value of its residence property. There is no longer the excuse of an insufficient water supply to care for the young trees during the summer dry ness. There is no longer the excuse of ungraded streets, and at least ten miles of paved thoroughfares arc in shape for shade trees along the curbs. Plant now and do your share in improving your street. A while later, and the planting season will have passed. INCREASED FIRE FIGHTING EFFICIENCY. GROWTH' and expansion of the city compels a constant increase in the operating expenses of the munici pality. Methods must change to meet changed conditions. What answered for the village no longer fills the bill for the thriving .young city. The municipality's plight is similar to that of the business houses. .livery firm has had to enlarge and ex pand, to double its slock and investment to handle the in creased business or lose it. Latest of the problems to demand municipal attention is the demand of the fire department for increased and more modern equipment for fighting fire. iMedford has been lucky" in having had no disastrous fires, and the sur est preventative is to be read' to handle the blaze when it conies. The doom of the fire horse has been sounded through out the country. The auto fire truck has come to stay. Speed, the greatest requisite, is secured.' Ouelty to ani mals is eliminated. In almost every wav the efficiencv of the service will be enhanced. Many are the arguments advanced in favor of I he proposed change, and the new council has a new problem to. tackle, which it will probably solve in a satisfactory manner. SALEM'S IMPURE WATER. SALKM does nol deserve to be the capital of Oregon. Any city too unprogressive to supply inhabitant with pure water ought to lose the prestige of being a cap ital city. livery session of the legislature sees many legislators and visitors made ill by drinking foul water and yet noth ing is done to remedy the situation. Salem has played the hog for many years, wanting all (he taxpayers' money spent there and opposing any ex penditure elsewhere. Now it is seeking the assistance of the state to construct a water system another instance of the hog. Medford, with less than f)000 people at the time, spent half a million dollars for a water system. Salem, with three times that number of inhabitants, with all the pat ronage and influence of state institutions, hasn't enter prise sufficient to supply its greatest need. The capital should be moved to Portland, where pure water can be obtained and legislators not have to risk their health and lives.
