This hospital sprang into life at the :nspiration of a comparatively few per tons, s n;e of whom nave passed to the ;reat beyond, and some have moved to tlu r j arts, but the greater number are -it ill honored residents uere. It was necessarily started with a small begin ning, anil required a great deal of time and unselfish labor to build it up to a position where it could be its own building force. Its first location was in the building on Twelfth street formerly used as a school for the blind, and now iecupied by the Holiness church people, but Irtter the fine property northwest if the state building on Asylum ave nue was secured, and makes one of the best lrospital sites on the coast. From its humble beginning it has jrown into the confidence of the peo ple so that the patronage has been lio eral and the suce ss phenomenal, while its record will compare favorably, with nuch older hospitals. With a favora ble location in- the suburbs of the city mil ven building is delightful, and its altitude insures good air. The present accom modations are sufficient -for fifty pa tients, and it has never been over crowded, twenty-nine being the largest number recorded there jit one time. The business done since its ine-ption will probably surprise a. great many. Over 2,000 patients have passed through its doors up to- the month of October. . Thus, it is seen, the Salem Hospital has grown into an important business factor in the city. Its patrons come from distant points of the state, as .well as front the rural districts of Marion county, so it is not Salem alone which furnishes its constituency.

Both, suita arise from Com plications caused by the commence ment of a gravity mountain water sys tern. The Corvallis Water Company, which has for- years- been supplying the city with Willamette river water, has, with in the last ten days, and since the let ting of contract for putting in the new system, legun extending its pip line to Krtions of the city hitherto un supplied. A six-inch main is being laid along Adams street, as far as the col lege grounds. At the last meeting of the city coun cil a .secial committee was appointed to confer with the city attorney as tr the proper steps to take to prevent the old company from further extending its system, so as to avoid, as much ar possible, the effed of the water-rat war lietwcen the city and the old com pany, which is exected to follow the installation of the new system. On the other hand, the old conipanj has given notice that it intends to en join the city from diverting the waterf of Rock creek into its gravity system The old company has filed on certaii water rights along this stream belov the proposed intake of , the. .Corvalli; water system, and it asserts that sucl projiosed diverting of the stream wil be of great damage to it financially It is possible some sort of a couiproaiist may be agreed upon between the eitj and the old company to avoid a lonf and exjensivc legal fight.

OADTOT BtaqOs -jyTti IM Toa Haw a?W7 lss& His Attorney, With Consent of Judge and District Attorney, Petitions for His Release From Jail on. Ground of Ignorance and Sufficient Punishment. Governor Chamlierlain is in receipt of a letter from Attorney 0. W. Tal lage of Tillamook, asking him to remit the fine and punishment ad judge I against one Ernest Breelitz, who was indicted for setting out fire in slashing contrary to the lw aud pleaded guilty. He was fined $100 and having no money was sent to jail. Mr. Talmagc,, who was lppointed by the" court to defend the man, states the case to the governor thus: , "Beelitz is a German of very eccen tric character aud almost non coiujmjs lientis, and lives on a small homestead laim in the mountains about ten miles from the city. He had some slashing, the burning of which during a dry spell jf weather would endanger his house, ind his all. Several young men in the deighborhood, among them the prose cuting witness in this case, and inci dentally the fire warden for that local ity, amuse themselves by playing tricks upon this ignorant and inoffensive Dutchman. Among other things that .iave. been done to trim is thw following: About the first part of July last, a-ean-ITc partly burned was -found by him imong his slashing. supposelly placed "here to intimidate him by making him uppose some one was trying to bnrn him out. Atout this time it rained tome, and he thought lie could burn his dashing without endangering his house, ind set it on fire without first having obtained the permit required by law. Indeed It is possible that he did not know he should get such ermit as the law contemplates, and it is certain that ic thought he was within his rights in letting the fire. No injury or damage ceurred from, the result of his act." . Mr. Talmage assures the governor hat Judge Burnett and District Attor ley McNary fuliy agree that the mini num jenalty, which was given the man a aoove recited is much more penalty han the man deserved, and that they :re not averse to executive clemency in he matter. As the man has been al ready sent to jail, it is urged that his unishment is already sufficient, and hat the balance should be remitted. . The governor will give the matter his ittention upon his return to Salem early text week.
