ERRICSSON'3 CENTENARY.
On July XL' interesting s ryices were
b!d at more than one place In the
world In honor of John Ericsson. One
hundred years aeo. July XL he was born
lo a little town In Sweden, the name, of
which comparatively few readers would
be able to pronounce were it printed in
fc a newpairv ' ,
, Soon' services are tofie held in dedi
cation of a statue of Ericsson which
stands in Battery Park, at the foot of
Broadway. New Tork. according to a
. writer In the Aanaconda Standard. A
monument to him has rtood for some
J yearn on that site. It was deemed to
b not satisfactory and new one takes
U ita place. In St a huge moniimeirt;
consisting of an enormous granit'? boul
dcr taken from a neighboring quarry,
was placed in front of the house where
Ei lesson was born. It was suitably
i Inscribed, and : Jn . celebration of him
centenary memorial services were neia.
' A remarkable man was John Erics
son. The inventions of Incalculably
gr?at value which he gave to the world
u
are many. The United Spates, of which
he became a citizen when he was thlr-ty-three
yeans old. honors him ospeci-
ftlty for hla inventlon'of th-j naval war
weapon which first appeared In the
: famous Monitor. '
Ericsson had scored many successes
- before he cam to America. lie had
"submitted to one or two governments
li Europe his plans for the submarine
, terror,' which became, famous during
the Civil War a submerged affair, with
guns In a revolving shot-proof cupola
placed centrally on the dock. - , '
In 1MI Ericsson proposed th!s sort of
im vcscl to the people n-ix-lated with
President L4ncoln.J It 1 history, Hhat
4 his device did not nm Yor with those
t who had the mpst ttriy In regard to
Vour sea equipment. tn the end, how
; vt, he received an order to build one
of his boats.' lie was placed under
stringent conditions; he had hardly
I any plans drawn when his craft was
ordered; as if by a miracle he had it
ready to go to sra one hundred days ;
after its keel Was laid; as if by a great- i
. er miracle the Monitor might have lost
IKs opportunity had It been ready for;
rervice Just one day later.
Ericsson's craft went to sea, bound
for Hampton Roads. Very few of the
naval experts believed that fhosre who
took passage In the "Iron coffin" would
ever be seen agIn or h-ard of. In
deed, aa It turned out, the vessel en
countered heavy weather and narrow
ly escaped destruction. But there Is
iJ page In American history-more dra
V matlc than the one which describes the
5 first appearance of this sea monster in
"" Hampton Roads.; There lay, one morn
ing In starch. 1S6V the rebel ram Mer
rimac itself a novelty In warfare.
The Merrimac had destroyed many
Union warship In those water", the
Cumberland, the Congres and he rest,
-and was arrogant master f the situa
tion. Before many hours the Merrimac
wss a sunken wreck, completely de
stroyed by tha "tub" Ericsson had se
afloat. The event was of remarkably
rg significance; It persuaded one or
two powers, quite ready at that mo
ment to act. to delay their program of
proposed Irrterferenre in behalf of th
Confederates. ' . :

MORE OF THEM.
Once every year, usually In the dull
part of the H mar season, the news
papers are sure to print the story of
the man who has found how to make
gold cheap.' : Usually this man Is an
alchemist in his way; he Invents" pro
cesses whereby,- at little expense, ' he
can develop gold out of the baser met
als -or claims he canuV- v -' '
A couple of years a, a fellow who
operated on the coast of Maine was
going to extract gold from the ocean.
His odd scheme attracted National at
tention. That fact, however, was not
so noteworthy as tbe other act : that
this genius found fools who Invested
tens ! of thounds of dollars in the
project, their expectation being that,
as they were to get gold at an expense
of two. cents on the dollar,, they -would
presently be rolling In millions. .'-
- As a rule, however, the gold-makers
operate In laboratories; One of . the
alchemists who is doing the turn this
year has headquarters In Philadelphia.
The newspapers are exploiting him and
the 'reports are . that already he has
Interested many "practical business
men In his wonderful discovery. One
account says that, for the realization of
this; latest dream av plant haa , been
erected, the, process has been In part
explained and some of the machinery
set In ope rat I n. : f
Of course, the principal machine In
this business is thevone that is tucked
away in the head of the man who is
able to persuade others to put their
good money at his disposal. The won
der is that he Is able to raise a dol
lar.! Still, when one thinks of it. the
scheme for, making1 gold out of com
paratively worthless material, at ,at
handsome margin of profit. Is rather
more alluring than most of the quick
rich projects which, in the aggregate,
eapture milllo of money every year.
?jw' comes forward o man at-Meeting
Oregon, who. it Is said, can trans
form gold into silver, and he is now
working on the problem of making gold
out of sliver or some cheaper metal.
It was only a short time ago that Mr.
Long was forming a ten million dollar
company, with headquarters in Salem,
to turn most any old thing into gold.
THE NEW POPE.
Pope Pius Tenth, the name assumed
by the newly eltcted ruler fn the .Vati
can, who was until yesterday Cardinal
Sarto. the Patriarch of Venice, is one
of the best men who could have been
ralxed to this highest place In the great
Roman .Catholic Church. . . i
A writer in "Everybody's Magaxine"
to August said of the then Cardinal
Sarto: '"The Cardinal has ruled his di
ocese" undisturbed during the last ten
years, beloved- by Catholics, , esteemed
by the -Government, and respected by
his enemies. Under his sway, the
Catholic Instiutions of Venice have
thriven exceedingly, and the Cardinal's
piety combined- with his very note
worthy common sense, has given him
the reputation of being an Ideal bishop.
He is sixty-eight years old, and Is cer
tainly a possible candidate.
The writer meant a possible candi
date for the high place of Pope that
matter being . under dircusslon. - The
Catholics of the world are to be con
gratulated that" they have a Pope of
the kind mentioned, one wHh ' pi
ety and common sense. And indeed.
the whole world is to be congratulated,
for tbe man who rules in the Vatican
at Rome has an influence upon the
moral well being of all the peoples of
the civilised earth. It Is well that the
new Pope Is not tainted in the least
with extreme Ideas or a headstrong dis
position. Pope Plus Tenth will, it is
predicted, be a worthy successor' of
that great man. Pope teo, who recent
ly laid down the cares and responsi
bilities of life, after a most useful ca
reer.
GIGANTIC RAILROAD DREAM.
A company of American,1 French
and Hussian capitalists have forward
ed a petition to Secretary Hitchcock
asking approval of a railway to. be
routed" across Alaska and Bering sea
to Siberia, to make an. all-rail route
from America to Asia.
"This l-4he proposed, railroad which
James Hamilton Iewis. formerly , of
Seattle and now of Chicago, has been
talking about, -and for which be has
WnorWng. having recently- visited

than tte tunning HC Behrngr etrtit,
from the jfartheat. eastl ponf of ,
bera 'tO' Cape Prince--of Wales, ; the
farthest "west polntf pf Alaska; ' and
then tbe building of a railroad throwgh
Central Alaska to the British, line
in all a. distance of some 800 miles. ,
The tunnel t is to' be in two divis
ions from Alaska to Diomede island,
and from the Island - to Siberia, ; The
distance Is roughly stated " at , stxtyi
five miles. It is to be under the bot
tom of the ocean.3 We suppose much
of the railroad on land will have lo
be In tunnels also, or boxed over. : In
that far north. It win be difficult ' to
keep ah exposed road, clear of Ice and
snowv -: - -'". j- .
The road does not seem to be plan
ned to build up existing properties in
Alaska. As with Russian railways;
it will run In nearly a straight line. It
win leave Circle City 100 miles. to the
northward, and even Dawson City fifty
miles to the northward. t j.! - r J- I -
Nothing Is said of getting a' coni
nectlon at the ends with established
systems of railway on either conti
nent, and this problem Is not the least
to be considered. From the point In
Siberia where the tunnel ends, tp the
nearest railway (at Port Arthur) fn
Russian terrtory, 'a as far , as from
Cape Prlnce"of Wales.' Alaska, to l-s
Angeles. California. . Tha is some
thing of a rpi in the international
railway. - Perhaps the reason the pro
moters do not say how it Is to be filled
Is because they do not know. : The
whole scheme is a fairy tale, probably.
THE BRANDED HAND.
.Sixty, years ago, - when ; the slavery
question waa beginning to rend! the
country and when to be an abolition
ist was to expose oneself to denuncla
tion as a craxy radical, John Creenleaf
Whittier. fired with the rplrlt'of Hberl
ty, was turning his poetic gift to ac
count for the proclamation of freedom
for. the slave. . V. ;
Whittier was in his thirties when he
wfote the verses to which reference is
hore to be made. These are recalled by
a newspaper -announcement of last
week which said that interesting cere
monies were to be held Saturday, Aug
ust 1, at Muskegon, Michigan, in com
memoration of the death of Jonathan
Walker. The story is that this Captain
Walker, a native of Massachusetts,
took , a, deep Interest in the; slavery
question. In 183&' he formed with oth
ers a compact for the establishment In
Mexico of a' colony for escaped slaves.
At one time. Walker was earnestly
solicited, by several fugitive slavees at
Pensacola. Florida, to carry them In
hfs ship to the West Indies. He knew
the hazard but he concluded to. make
the venture. His ship wrasr. seised a
sea by an American vessel and Walker
was delivered over to the authorities
In Pcpsacola. : He" was sentenced" to a
long term In , prison and to the pay
ment of "a heavy fine. , But, , in addi
tion, tbe unusual punishment was that
his right hand ehbuld. be branded with
the letters "S. S. the same' signifying
slave-' stealer.- . - :
Aftor many months In prison Captain
Walker was released. When he re
turned North. Whittier wrote one, of
his anti-slavery poems, with Walker
for its hero, one verse running thus
Then lift up that manly right hand.

Thereafter Walker was ; not much
beard of. In 1863 be settled in. Muske
gon county, having his home, on a very
charming spot near the lake. He died
in 1878. Thereafter an army chaplain
raised a fund wherewith a suitable
monument ' was erected ovei Walker's
grave. - - The dedication of this shaft
was an occasion 'for Impressive cere
monies. On . its face . is. graven a

The first is a pxropoiUon Ho run- the

ily imply that we have bo right to own

striction upon the liberty of the citizen.
The fourth means, if anything, the re
moval, of tariff, upon materials; used in
shipbuilding.. The. plani; would be bet
ter stated: We favor reform t of the
tariff. The fifth demands that laws
shall originate by petition of the peo4.
pie and before enactment shall be sub

between that and representative gov

What has the jinti-canteen law done
for our soldier? ; No doubt women's
temperance associations, tract , socie
ties, etc'will str6ngl- assert that the
banishing of liquor from, military posts
has done wonders for the moral good
of the soldier. But on the other hand,
perhapsthe laying low of this evil In
the army was like ' the slaying of the
dragon when '.' one ? head was cut', off
seven others appeared! in its place. An
example "of. this may! be- seen at Fort
Stevens, Oregon. Off on a little" knoll 'of
ground" M 'an id weatheKDea'tetC tum-r
ble-down building , now deserted, on
which, the words stand out clear on . a
dilapidated !:slgn.n'Post.,' Exchange."
The buildihr Is uredi nbmbfe;- Uncl
Sam Is not In . the business of dispensf
ing liquor.. No morej does tbe soldier
get the benefit of sales at the canteen.
As a result a towri has sprung up just
on the outskirts of the military reser-
vation. where but a short time ago
there, was . no town. There, are no in
dOBtries "there, 'only numerous houses
of fishermen and men engaged about
the ,; Government work. There are
many towns tbe size iof Hammond that
cannot' support a saloon, yet this town
has no 9mh than six saloons. . And
when it -is J notorious! -that most of the
sollders' pay. goes far drink, U can be
seen where the support comes from.
Dr. Dinwiddle, referring to the anti
canteen law, mada the argument "in
the Interests of fairness,' that a sol
dier does not have to drink at all. Ye
in regard to the 'fairness"; the follow
ing Is, noted i "A soldier, does not have
to "drink; the Uhlted States will
not allow him to drink-at a post; this
puts him in the necessity of going out
side if hew lyTdrink; this Is fair. " To
whom ; The saloon , keeper, of course.
And It Is this ,farness"f tha t keeps
such places as these on -the edge of
every military reservation In the Unit

Says the Mobile. Ala, Registsr:
"Onp who has employed negroes in
agriculture 7 and' general plantation
work' for years, writes: The world is
beginning to find out ' that ninety in a
hundred .of the negroes are xjuiet, "rea
sonably Industrious and easily" man
aged.; It is the remaining ten that are
dreadfully' bad. and ''who commit hor
rible crimes and who give so bad an
odor to the rest of the race.
It is announced In San : Francisco
that E. H. Harriman has in mind .the
construction of a coast railroad from
that city to Astoria. The Southern
Pacific has a coast line to California.
It Is quite the natural thing that there
should be plans for extending it. In
deed, the report has it that engineers
are already figuring on the matter.
though the actual work of construction
maybe a long ways off.
"r One of the first" things that the " new
health board will . have to , deal with,
perhaps. Is the open sewer running from
tbe tSantiam river to Salem. mi lea,
and then dividing and coursing 'down
lntwo polluted streams , through the
city-t-the open sewer that is otherwise
known as .Mill creek. Its -waters will
have - to be protected from pollution
before the sanitary condition of . Sa
I em can be pronounced as perfect. ,,- V
,The Salem city council deserves cre
dit for constituting a city board of
health 'and still more credK for select
ing fine excellent men toj make, up the
board conservative men,' and yet vig
orous and thorough. They should and
no doubt will be heartily supported in
their efforts to put Salem in a 'good
sanitary condition. - '

Let the., new. health board now. or
ganize and ; get-to .work. r Make - the
necessary regulations, and they will
be enforced. If the city government
is too poor to have them enforced, the
people-w ill take up a collection among
themselves to meet the necessary cost.
