The cabinet was in ses sion until 2 a. in. it Is oillclally stated that only 1500 out of the 65,000 army reseryc men called out failed to respond, thus set ting at rest the stories circulated of wholesale failure to answer the call to arms.

Vossos remains at Allkingu. The Greek warship Nanarichos Mlaulys has arrived at the Piraeus with 12 prisoners captured during the J recent attack the Turks made upon Monondondn, near Platania.

A great sen sation has been raised here by the a"j polntmcnt of Maxim pasha as vali. Maxim Pasha was the minister of police during tho massacro of the Armenians at Constantinople.

It was decided in favor of the negative. Basket ball, In tho gymnasium, is the favorito game of both boys and girls at present. They have no organ ized teams but wo hope they 'vlll effect an organization in the near fut ure, as It will then enable them to play with the teams of tho surround ing country. O i. A tired stomach is very much like a sprained ankle. If you suffer from any of the symptoms of dyspepsia, your stomach Is tired. It needs a crutch. Wo must relievo it of all work for a time, or until it is restored to its natural strenght. To do this successfully, wo must use a food which is already digested outside of tho body, and which will aid the digestion of other foods that may bo taken with it. Such a product is tho Shaker Di gestive Cordial. The Shakers have utilized the di gestive principles present in plants for the manufacture of this article, and Its success has been truly phe nomenal. You can try it for the nom inal sum of 10 cents, as sample bottles are sold by all druggists at this price. Laxol is the best medicine for chil dren. Doctors recommend It in place of Castor Oil. .

Addition to the Wool Schedule Is Announced, Washington, March 20. Chairman Dingley, of the ways and means com mittee, presented in the house tho re port on the new tariff bill. Tho re port follows lnrgely tho lines of tho explanatory statement on tho bill made by Mr. Dingley on Monday. The report reylewsthe strugglo of the government with a dlOclcncy In rev- enuo during tho last four years, and says the condition Justifies tho convo cation of congress toprovldo a remedy.

In the senate Chandler presented a memorial from Governor W. P. Lord and Secretary of State n. R. Kincald, of Oregon,detalllngthe circumstances of the recent failure of tho legislature of that state to organize and elect a senator. The document stated that as a result of this failure, n session of the Oregon legislature hud been held since February, 1805. The pur pose of the memorial was to establish the right of the governor to appoint n senator. The memorial was referred to the committee on privileges und elections.

They were tho sundry civil bill and the general deficiency bill The two others, which failed at she last session, will be passed, Who Said So? The man who said that tho hardest fmrtof an eastern trip came after eaying the Mississippi river, never Journeyed between Minneapolis or St. 'aul to Mllwaukeo or Chicago over the lines of the Wisconsin Central, for the accommodations over this route are unsurpassed, tho connections are close, thus doing away with vexa tious delays.

Clean the streets; make, tho war rants good; quit fooling. The 'Journal, believe1 in a free press. The mayor docs not. Salem streets, water, air and people arc quito clean, compared to some of the pollticans. 4 With good water and clean streets, Salem is no doubt tho prettiest, most prosperous and healthiest town In Oregon. Albany Democrat: A farmer is wanted at tho reform school. Here's a good opportunity for some man who never saw a farm. The reform school editor of the Statesman has "come to tho support or the mayor." This is natural. It comes from a fellow feeling two of a sort. Cottago Groyo Messenger: The Roseburg Review like tho Salem Journal, is giving tho city "dads" lits on account of tho filth In their re spective towns. Oregon women are coming to tho front, to tho the terror of the male office-holders, The Eugeno Guard don't want a woman .city school su perintendent. Eugene Guard: The action of tho county Judges had a 6ort of paralyzing effect on the Salem Statesman. It feebly exclaims: "It will take an ex tra session to break the hold-up of tho county Judges." Horace Mason, of Staytou, has es tablished a good independent paper at Cottage Grove, ne will got tho support of all tho pcoplo except the McKlnlcy office seekers, and until prosperity strikes them, thoy aro too poor as a rule to pay for a paper. Tho X Rays have been unmercifully directed upon "Barber" Buford as farmer at tho reform school and may have hastened his resignation. They have even been directed upon the kind of farmer tho governor may ap point. Hut then tho governor Is not like tho mayor. lie docs not object to public scrutiny of his official acts. Banker Albert hus been lecturing Secretary Kincald on his duty as au diting officer of the state, no has been lecturing tho state officials on their duties about tho state taxes. It Is about time ho should be lecturing our Murion county officials on their duty to pay over at onco tho stato taxes Into tho treasury. Their de linquency should not bo tolerated. It interferes with business. Vouch ers will soon bo out for tho first quar ter of 1807. .. Our mayor thinks that any person who does printing for the city, or per forms any service for It, is bound to uphold tho city administration, and should be denied city patronage, or contracts, for criticising It. Our mayor seems incapable of discriminat ing between receiving a public con tract from being the lowest bidder and receiving ono as a political favor or for a pecuniary consideration. If tho late Win. II. Watklns wero living ho could probably explain our mayor's perversion of Ideas upon such matters. Mown Topics Funnier than Fanny Rice. Puor. IlEitiTAOE.

The mc-ctlng atMrs.Edes' resldencs on Tuesday resulted in the detemi nation to make an energetic canvass for the flax project and to hold a pub lic meeting at the opera house for further agitation. The ladies are now In earnest and there is to bo some thing besides talk. Tho meeting of the Oregon Woman's Flax and Hemp Fibre Asso ciation at Reed's opera hou9e, Mon day night, promises to be a success. Salem people aro becoming interested. Dr. DInncll, the German manufact urer, who Is the Inventor of llnncn mesh underwear, telegraphed lio would arrive at Salem on March 20, and is expected to address the meet ing. It Is certain that ilbro llax and hemp can be grown in Oregon. It is certain that the fibre can be cheaply retted and scutched here, as we liavo abundance of pure water and good water power. It is certain tho baled ilbro can bo field for cash to the manu facturers who now Import ship loads of It. There will be a highly pro tective duty put on these products in tho now tariff bill. Families can put In and harvest one-fourth to live acres each, according to their indus try. All this can bo done if tho .capi tal can bo secured to put' in the scutching und retting plant at Salem. As to Dr. DlnnelPs Invention of linen underwear made from llax fiber thero are grave doubts, as to w hethcr any grade or manufacture can be conducted ut Salem. But It will do no harm to disciihs that. What is needed lirst Is tu settle whether the stock can bo subscribed to establish the scutching mill atSalom.. Albany and Portland both want tho Industry and tho Salem Indies who hayochargo of sollctlng this stock must exert themselves. Fortunately no new church Is to bo built, and no other enterprise claims cash support. This flax Industry is a practical proposi tion. It will bring money to Oregon. It will give employment to people on tho farms as well as in tho towns, It will help many a poor man or woman hold body and soul together, not only their own, but their children's. Let all respond heartily by attend ing tho opera house meeting Monday night and contribute by your pres ence, your wyrds of encouragement, and your subscription to tho success of this woman's movement to help women and everybody to a now Held of employment, a now hope for the future.
