IN KEM.Tr TO "COUNTRY." The Jouiinai, believes In running Its columns wide open, so faraa dls mission of timely topics, limiting writers only to the snmo limits Im posed upon the editor In respect to length of articles, and iutirost of readers and a general average qu d Ity of writing. Ho we allow writers to use our columns within the above restrictions without regard to their attacking editorial ylows, so loop ns they contain any sense. So vu print "Country's" attack ou tho proposed plan of netting aid from the county to build tho Commeichii street viaduct Tiir Jouhnai. Is a strong advocate of better city and country streets aud highways. It fuvors a liberal polloy of public im provements. It llrmly believes no community ever yet expended money honestly for any public Im provement that It was not a good Investment. It believes a city or county or statb will prosper In proportion as it en gages its capital and credit in a publlcisplrlted and patriotic manner in advancing all enterprises for tho benetlt of tho whole people that it can legitimately engage In. It has not a partlolo of patience with that sort of paternalism which would Jealous'y gnat d the city, county or stato against spendlug a dollar be yond absolute necessity and for tho actual wants of the hour. It is not tlniitlmt progress is had in any com munity. It is not thus that business men in this ago manage private business. It Is not a good polioy to pursue. There is a wise medium between wildcat financiering, or tho boom ing that leads on to bankruptcy, and the niggardly polloy of a peanut conservatism that only applies tho brakes. Thr Jouknaii wants all the public Improvements possible. It wants them .built economically and honestly. We leave to lawyers to decide whether a streot, that was originally a county road, is entirely out of tho jurisdiction of the county court or not. Certain it is, the county built tbe present bridge sought to bo re placed by tho viaduct. Certain itis, the county has kept it in repair. Certain it Is, should tho present old structure fall in tho creek aud tho city refuse to replace It, tho county court would have to do something to allow people trnvellnc the county mad to get Into the city over South Mill creek. Certain It Is that an act of the legislature, extending Salem city limits over half the county of Marlon or over the wholoof It would not abolish tho county court or re strict its jurisdiction over that terri tory. ISut these aro all suppositions and not necessary to tho decision of the point that "Country" raises. "Country" seems to think tho coun ty court can levy a tax for roads and bridges ou the entire property of the city of Salem, and then expend it in tho country, without consulting the needs of tho city. This Is a fallacy. &UGOKST15U COMJUUNT, Salem needs more religion as well aa more churches.

It was with deep regret that the people of the Wlllatnetto valley, heard of the death of E. M. Miller. Peaceful and just, his life has been ouo, which has drawn to him scores of frlonds; among these nono were more 11 rm nor true than those, whoso friendship he held at tho State Agrl cultural college. There, he was a beuior cadet, having just been ap pointed to tho highest cilice in tho Batalllon. As a companion aud friend no ono could say, that ho was at fault lu any way, since he had tho best re gards, and tho esteem of every stu dout in the school, and his class rec ords were above reproach. Being a young man of fine ability, sterling character and resolute courage, his many friends aud acquaintances had selectod for him a high mark in life, which It seems ho would reach and in all probability surpass. Ho had attended tho O. A. C. for a number I of years and would havo left his Alma Mater with high honors lu a few months, should his life havo boon spared. Thus, mentally, ho .was strong, aud competent to battlo ubly with the wIbo of his country. Constitutionally vigorous and well formed, ho was held as a model of strength and power, among his fol low students. Among tho professors of the institution ho was looked upon as ouo of tho brlghost nnd most ambitious In their classes. Yet In this very movement, when both mentally and physically ho was best fitted to onter tho grand march of life, with success seemingly within his grasp, death claimed him for his own. J. II, S.

Mrs. Deacon, In an interview at Paris yesterday, said sho had been visiting the Countess Portalas at Caunes and was tired and went to her mother's. She was there when Abellle arrived and accompanied her to bet apart ments in tho Hotel Splondlde. In her bedroom salon sho was accus tomed to relinquish ceremony, and she wont Into her bedroom to get hor dressing-gown. Abellle te malnlng lu tho salon. They were quietly conyorslug, when her htw band sheuted: "Open tho door or I will burst it in." "As I was in the salon," said Mrs. Deacon, "it took time for mo to cross the bedroom, and light a candle. Although used to being ill treated, I was frightened , when I saw tho revolver lu my hus band's hand. Aboillo was reclining against tho mautloplece when my husband leveled tho revolver at him. I tried to prevent Mr, Deacon from " shooting, but without effect, Abellle seeing the danger, naturally Bought shelter bchlud the sofa. Three shot9 wore flrod by Mr. Deacon, one of tho bullets being buried in the cushions. If Aboillo had been guilty of anything that would have caused him to use violence, ho could easily havo escaped by tho way of tho salon into tho passage, or to the cornice, eight inches wide, which was round tho outer wall of thn building." Mrs. Deacon says that sho intnnds to bogln an action for divorce from hor husband. PROM OHILI AGAIN. Grave Charges Against U. 8. Con-' buI McOreery. Valparaiso, Chill., Feb. 24. A new scandal has cropped up here. It implicates United States Consul McCreery. Tho story is the sensa tion of tho hour. Documents In the coso havo just been made public. They relate to alleged transactions In exchange by Mr. MoOrceryl" The revelations have fairly astonished the mercantile world here. It la as serted that tho bills show there was bought and sold by him In Decern bor, 1600, and In January and Feb ruary, 1801, over $1,000,000. For the last three months, it is further al logod, ho has been extensively en gaged lu exchange transactions. This wns especially the case during tho tlmu of tho Baltimore affair. It Is also alleged that he used informa tion which ho gained from official sources lu his dealings. Thki data, which has bo astonished and wrought up tho business commu nity, leaked out through a letter; which was sent to Broker Neckle mann by Mr. McCreery, and In which tho consul threatened legal proceedings unless bo was paid a certain sum of money which be claimed was duo htm. Neoklemann alleges, ou his part, that McCreery owea him mouoy. It Is rumored that Lieutenant Harlow, the world' fair commissioner, is seriously mixed op lu tho scandal, and that he en tered into a sort of partnership with McCreery In lils Iato purchase of bills. The complicity of Mr. Me Creory and Lleutonant Harlow Is hard to give lu dotal), as all tbe doe uraeuts In the affair, photographs of McCrcery's letters, signature and contracts for exchange, are now eu route by mall to New York. News of theeo transactions havo lod to aa increase of tho feeling In this city against the consul, who has not for qulto a whllo been favorably regard ed here. Lieutenant Harlow's let ters to certain New York papers, lu view of tho present circumstances, seem to Chilian minds to furnish good reasons for the spreading of startling rumors In tho United Stats for the purpose of mutual profit of those engaged In this affair.
