Lured on by the deceptive1" charm of, (beluga state capital, and lu the pres ence of the' corruption and partlsau scandals always bred at a seat of gov ernment, this has been a rich field for the polklcSil'adventurer, file pfofes? slonal DlacKinaiier, anil ine newspaper slander monger, Salem has been (subjected with the output of the scandal mill for a year past First the alleged asylum scandal? filled the columns of this scavenge! press that poses3ea none of the iu stlucts of decent juuruullsm. Wha was the result? Did it achieve any n form ? Beyond blackmailing the nana of a pure woman, Miss Lillian Bobllu, who was afterward uiiluiully declared innocent of all wrong, the ulandei mills did nothiog but corrupt and de grade their readers. The state board of charities that paid heed to the scandal mougering report ers and editors was unanimously abol ished and bad no one to say a word ii. Jts behalf. Next the sewer reportei worked up the Mrs. Tdlio DeLeon BOaridal, an nflair that with the otherx cost the county and Btate hundreds and thousands of dollars and resulted In rendering a family very unhappy and blackening the good name of a hitherto blameless wife and mother. Of course, the smut mill reporters and publishers sold papers and made a living and put Bupt. Downing in an unenviable light. That they had to confess themselves liars in court was nothing to them or their enjoyment of life, liberty and happiness. Next the slander mills charged The Journal with trying to blackmail one Shaw. This proved a boomerang, for the reputation of the men they attacked was never for a mo ment called in queat'on and they served a man who waa thoroughly rot ten for a few dirty dollars, and every court decided against them. It was nothing to them that they shielded a man guilty of flagrantly immnrul con duct, it was nothing to them that a family had been disgraced and they be came the tools of the debaucher. But that thoy should sell their columns to charge crime where It did not belong to screen the guilty man that capped the climax of all past achievements. All that has been done since has only been a continuation of the work of these slanderers and scandal mongers. They seem to be animated with a mad ness to build themselves up by grovell ing in filth and iliuglug their sewage at others to distroy their reputations. This Is not tho way men are made great and strong for careers ot usefulness to their fellow citizens. Charaoter build ing Is not a process of defilement. The Blander mills are useful In a way. Thoy roveal what certain ludiylduala would do if they had powor over others. It Is well that those who readily bolievo evil have no authority and control over the community. If they wore iu a position to pass judg mont and enforce decrees In matters where they are now only sulf-decelved society would be In great danger. But those who erect and furnish the means to run the scandal mills have a grave responsibility to faco in the future. They and their families will reap the harvest that they sow. Injustloe and Inhumaulty only reproduce themselves, aud thoso who enjoy tho practice of cruelties aud the torturers of the helpless vIoMiub of the slander mills will live to see them practiced upou themselves. Salem will reap a harvest of tares from the columns of degrada tion that have boon poured luto thou sands of families needlessly the past year. Wo hope for the best. But who can doubt but that tho moral tone and taudard of a community are lowered by a reckless scaudal mungerlug press? Whatsoever ye sow, that shall ye reap. How to Oct a Handsome Husband.

Board of Equalization Sustain lAaes sor Coffey in Raising, the Valua tion of tho S. F. 'Road. The representatives of tho Southern Puclflo railroad have been the most persistent and vigorous kickers that have appeared before tho board of Equalization, and yesterday were be fore the equalizers for the third and last tlmo. Assessor Coffey raised the valuation of the road from $3500 to toQOO per mile, and the representatives argued this was unjust and tried in vain to show tbo board why such a rnlso should not be made. The argument of the railroad representatives was tho plea of bard times and relating the fact of having discontinued one train from Albany to Portland, besides having cut down ex penses along every line possible, While it no doubt is true that the road Is not making as much money as it would like, yet the raise of value by assessor Coffey from $3500 to $5000, is not qulto unreasonable and on the basis of the new valuation will not require the corporation to bear more lhau its just proportion of taxation, and the board decided to stand by the raise. The statement that Coffey bad made a horizontal raise of GO per cent on all property is incorrect. No horizontal ralso has been made. The valuatio'u of some property according to the new as sessment roll Is 200 per cent above what it was last year though such cases aie very rare, and in a few Instances It is not assessed as high as last year. As a wholo, tho valuation of property is much higher, perhaps 40 percent above tho valuation of last year. As Is well known, pro port j" Is not yet assessed at its full value, but undec the last assess ment will reach approximately 50 per cent of actual value. Assessor CoftYy states that If ho Is wrong in tho assessment of the South ern Puclflo railroad is in rating it too low, Ho certainly has not valued It too high ami this the representatives of tho road well knew. They would uot answer the repeated question by the board "How mueh Is your road worth per mllo," Thoy were aware that money on a mortgage of $20000 per mile had been realized. Putting the valuation at the amount of tho mort gage aud the company pays tax od only 25 per cent of .tho real value of the road and It should bear l(s full ahare of tho county taxes, Tho board have been ve'ry positive with the representatives of tho road In their refusal to reduce tho valuation on the property and thepopla would havo been satisfied with nothing less.

It was n woman who was talking a little, giddy looking thing but she -was Kpoaking quite nervously to ber-travoling companions, telling a story of her experience on a former trip. "Yes," she was saying, "Mrs. B. was with mo, and I had my terrier clong, as I -was going home on a vis it, and as usual with women who are Iraveling I didn't havo any too much yaouey ; in fact, I had spent all my al lowance except a dollar and was cshamed to let Jim know, so when the conductor told me I must send that dog to the baggage car and pay $1 for him at the end of the trip I felt pretty bad." "Mean old thing I" chorused the company. "He said that it wasn't his fault that the dog was a perquisite of tho baggage man." "And then he tied him up and didn't give him a drink nor any" "No, ho didn't 1 Wait a minute. The car was crowded, and there wasn't a vacant seat At one of tho stations 'a tall, slim old lady with white hair got in and stood leaning against the side of the car door. I was cross and disagreeable and for a moment I just let her 6tand. Then I felt ashamed of myself, and giving tho i dog to my friend I went and asked the woman to take my seat She did not want to, but I told her I was going to walk up and down tho car aisle for exercise, "which I did." "That was just hko you,Nolly" "N.o, it wasn't I'm awfully selfish, but wait. After the car started a man in a checked gingham blouse and blue overalls came in and talked -to tho old lady and called her 'moth er. When he went out again, she told us what a good son he was. At the next station we stopped 20 min utes, and Mrs. B. went out on the platf orm.and we walked up and down with Fido and left the mother and son to visit together. And what do you think? He was tho horrid baggage man, and ho let me keep Fido and 'wouldn't take a cent for him, though I offered lum the last dollar I had. He said that a seat for his mother was worth more than that. Now, wasn't that; a pleasant experience?" and the little woman smiled over the memory. Detroit Free Press. An Interesting Family. It seemed to bo a ball of closely packed wool or brown hair about an inch in diameter moving steadily along tho path. As there was no wind and no apparent explanation of tho movement of this mysterious body I approached nearer, upon which it ceased moving, and was to all appearance just what it had at first seemed to be. Knowing that there must be life in or about it somewhere, I proceeded to poke it with my umbrella. Just as the tip of the staff was about to touch it the object instantly spread out several inches in all directions, the whole mass again becoming motionless. In the center of the figure thus formed was revealed a large spider ready to do battle for its young, the surrounding patch of brown matter which had radiated from it being composed of myriads of httle spi ders, each so small that a single one alono would scarcely have been dis cernible to thoeyo. Harper's Young People. A Saleswoman's Hard Question. A lady had almost decided to buy the coat she was trying on. The weary saleswoman breathed a sigh of relief. The customer had been hard to suit. Even yet she fingered tho buttons and twitched the sleeves thoughtfully. "What was this fur when it was alivot" she asked abruptly as she ad justed tho collar, The saleswoman hesitated and stammered. Sho was torn between a businesslike desiro to make a sale and a conscientious regard for tho truth.- Her confusion was painful. "Well, ma'am, wo' have to call it marten," sho said at last, "but it was skunk when it waa alive." Youth's Companion. What Sunburn Dee Fur the Face.
