CIRCULATION (SWOrtW) OVER 4000 WHO FIRED THE LAST SHOT AT. ,"vJ H THE ARMY? A j- ;Jut before the vote In the Senate on the Philippine bill Mr, Culberson,.. of Texas, came up, comparatively fresh to the front line of defamation and took ; his place beside Patterson, Carmack. Dubois and the rest. Culberson brought more ammunition and proceeded to em ploy it against the United States Army In the Philippines. i This ammunition consisted or certain papers from the-re-eords of the War Department. Mr.' Culberson had pre vlously attempted to procure the same by means of the customary resolution requesting' that the documents, be fur nished. Ills purpose had been defeated. not by any refusal of the Department to produce the papers, but by the fall, ure of the Senate to adopt hM resolu tion calling for the same. Nevertheless the documents reached him by subway, and he had them In his - pocket all ready -to use when he wanted to use them. :'N . , : ' I?;- The particular rase to which j these papers related Is of trifling importance or Interest now.

Portland Evening Telegram. It will also result in better guns and equipments generally being provided, and in giving better pay to the guards. especially to- those who have proved their mettle under fire. Eternal vigi lance Is the price of safety; but better pay and better equipments will help to secure and keep men who will be vlgi- lan t. If the guards had possessed as good rifles as the escaped convicts, they would not have escaped. They would have been killed.

Sun: We have recorded fr tlm to time In the last few years sev eral experiments, mainly in the West, in co-operative housekeeping. The taste for It scarcely seems to ' grow. The increasing difficulty of finding competent ? domestic .servant f leads tnany persons to cast' pla tonic glances at co-operative housekeeping. It seems a way of escape from trouble. - By It Inviting economies have been achieved. It looks promising, but most people are able to keep put of It. Probably Its want of privacy -frighten many , of them away. Their household may. be a poor thing, like Audrey, but It Is their own. :'l Still, anything that pre tends to lessen the cost or friction of living deserve civil treatment. .

ESCAPEOHErRTTE'NTION. There is a good deal of nonsense in dulged In by some of the Republican state papers by abusing Governor Geer for "proposing to call an extra session of the Legislature. .

Why not discuss the merits of an ex tra session "and leave the personal matter out of ilt? . " ' " In discussing; the ' extra session an Astoria' paper goes so far as4o saya that the Governor bua lost a hundred thousand dollars to the School -Fund by not raising the price of school land. when that matter rest with the School Board of three, one 'of whom lives in Astoria.; who with the other member of the board" ha just been re-elected wtthout one word being aald about school lands from any quarter, and It la not likely that an increase in the price of school lands lias ; ' been v de manded by any paper in the state. So " far the Governor has not been blamed for the Pelee eruption, but it muiat : have escaped the attention of some of the paper of the state. t NO GOOD EXCUSE. Those Marlon .county .officials seem to have desired the-escaped despera does to get a safe distance ahead. Portland Evening Telegram. Thls is unjust and mailolousv The Marlon county officials have ben ac tlve in their efforts to capture or kill the murderous convicts. iThey have been out all the time since the escapes were . made. They have . been, assist d .too, by some of the best of the Portland men: who are .experienced Jn this , Itne. . There Is.no good excuse for this ping by the Telegram. It easy to stand off and find fault. Any old fool or coward can do this, . and foels and cowards are generally found doing M In cases like the present, ' There has been fear of such a short age in help as to make It Impossibl to save the fruit crop In the district surrounding' San' Jose, Cal. The Mer tury, of that city, ha been making an ftnvestlgation of! the "matter, and the following are the conclusions of that paper: "As far a the cherry crop I concerned its harvest Is now well un der way, and there is abundant labor and plenty to-spare to take care of it.

The, pear, peach and plum har vests are close at hand at that .time, but the peach yield Is not Expected to be above the normal and may fall be low It. The pear and plum crops will be large but nothing phenomenal. .The prune yield will be normal. With the exception" of apricots conditions this season will not- materially, differ from those of preceding -good ffuit' season 7 ' : ' . . 'I Hon. A. .

If he could, and other; requlretrierits were satisfactory,' the man was taken, whether he wa a Democrat or a Re publican. It would be a very good idea now and in the future to have a little civil service applied to the In stltution, and a system of promotions for. good and efficient service. Politics ought not to be allowed , to interfere with efficiency at the Penl tentiary.

Mr. Durbln wa unwilling to have the sac rifice made, even to attain the desira ble end. The. newspaper reportar or other man who imagines there are no brave men among: the pursuers' is much mistaken.

The taro escaped convicts were cap tured over and over again ten thousand times on th street of Saletn yester day, and a greater or less number of ttmes on the streets . of other t.r'ron cities. The campaign TiKtng over, this matter came in hands for thto numer- ous fellows who love to talk about- how other people, ought to Oo things. The young: ladles at tha central tel ephone office are probably tired of an swering the calls of people who want to know. If the convicts are captured yet. But the office force of the states man ha nqtlm to get tired. ,, 7 That wood chopper down, near Ger vals concluded that the escaped con vlcts might become regular boarders. He thought that he could not afford it, and so ha temporarily abandoned his boarding; house. v 7: F. Knight, of Ramona, South Dako ta, a subscriber to the -Twice-a-Week Statesman, is In the city. He Is look ing for a location with a. view to be coming a resident of Oregon. He was here before for the purpose of looking over the country. There Is some business In real estate In Salem and the surrounding country more than for a long time before. A man arrived from the Kast on the morning train a few, days ago. and be fore, night he had bought himself a. home. He will buy other property to rent. ; There 1 a greater- demand for houaus for rent than ever before in the history of the city, and more will have to be built if the demand Is sup plied for very long. In times of public excitement, you can hear, all sorts of things. ; Many Were the foolish reports started and circulated : over the : state yesterday concerning the progress of the pursuit of the two. escaped convicts. This is the time of all times when the liar (and his- name Is legion) gets in his work. It Is a. pity a large-sixed crop of- tha liars could not be sent up against the murderous convicts. They never would be missed. . ; ' Now the campaign for Old WHIam ette must be opened up again and pur sued - vigorously and earnestly, und everlastingly. '; ;V ,: r-.-.'.;'.. The Statesman : force thought the good natured crowds would be with them In front of the office no longer after It -was definitely known who was elected Governor, But the tragedy at the Penitentiary and the chase . after the murderous, convicts has brought them back. If this thing keeps up, things are going to be lonesome around this office after the crowds disperse finally. They are welcome. Even the scores and scores of telephone callers are welcome. ' But it makes it rather, a strenuous . life around the Statesman office. . r" , John F. Cord ray Is in the city for a day or two. Mr. Cord ray is looking over the situation, e.nl figuring up the pile of, money he has made the past year and estlmatihir how much more .. may make during the next season.

The season is now over There will be only straggling troops un til about the middle of .August, when (he. next season opens. Mr. Cord ray says the. next season will be a brilliant one. - He has felt his way and found out that the people of Salem will . sup- port the best companies. It has taken time Idf demonstrate this. It has been demonstrated, however, and this will give Mr. Cordray an opportunity to give better satisfaction in the future, and a chance to make something for himself out ofthe venture. The Oregonian has .been asking If there is really any black "bass In Ore gon. A friend of the writer saw. at least a tnousand or. inem a. tew days ago in the Willamette. The tragedy at the Penitentiary will result in the guards being better paid and better armed,' and better equipped and disciplined generally. The Legis lature will not provkie grudgingly for the Penitentiary In these regards in the future. .. ' ' ,'; ': ' .
