Shall 8nl8in adopt a policy of pro gruttslttt growth? Or shall Salem be content to Hit down nnd with folded hands take what oomea in her? Tlii jA.Hrn.al Iim always had contl deace In the itoselblltllee of this city un0r favorable ooudltlan. That ouNnjience has never been shnkeo Alt through one period of depression Salem never lost eonfl detieo. In spit of nuy depression that may come Ih the future this city can Ue Wake up! Wak up!

Are years If overy psrson who reads this paper will adopt hope ful tactics for city growth. No city can grow at more than a snail's pace without steadfast, consis tent nnd everlastingly nggrsslve Improvements. If ovory reader of this papor will go to work to get ono family to como to Saiom next year Salem will double In population. But people who como here must be employed. Public Improvements alone will employ common labor, and help build up tho suburbs rapidly. Will you labor to get pooplo to como and live In Salem? Will you favor a policy that shall rosult in building sowors, streets, otc? Whnt about a water systom for Qroater Salom7 Has not the tlmo come for this city to begin to consldor tho proprloty of buying or "building n water Bystom adequate to tho needs of growing capital city? Criticism and condemnation will ac complish little for tho needs of a growing city, and noithor will a policy to destroy or injure tho wator sorvico wo now have Salem, as a capital city, Is tho tar get of observation for tho whole state on this matter.of water supply, and tho stato Institutions nro Intorestcd about as much as tho people of this city. Why would It not bo wlso for tho stato Institutions to he considered at tho tlmo whon Salem Is planning a wator Bitpply7 Thoy would bo tho largest customers for Salem wator, and should havo tho best quality. The city of Salem ajono has the right to mnko contracts with tho Blato Institutions undor public ownership, and yet the stato could Join tho city In building a Biiltablo wator plant. Tho stato nnd the city could bring wnter from tho mountains, whon neither could afford to bring It nlono, A Eowor system for Creator Salem Is IndlspoiiBlblo. As woll try to run a fnctory without a chlmnoy, a horso without lungs, a houso without air, as a city llko this without scwors. Kvory stato Institution must havo"R sewor. Tho city nnd tho stnto should havo a Joint sower system. It Is wrong to turn state Institution sowngo Into tho oroeks that flow oponly through thin city. Who knows what becomes of tho sewngo of the nsylum farms, of the muto school, of tho roform school, of tho fnlr grounds, and othor publlo In stltutlonB? A sower Byfltom for Creator Salem must Includo the sowerngo of tho stato Institutions, Tho city should havo tho right to tap tho stnto sewor that now runs through tho city, nnd tho stnto should havo tho right to tap tho city sowers. The stato and tho city Bhould unlto In adopting an adequate sowor systom for tho city and tho Institutions. Tho sanitation and welfare of the ono nf facta tho othor. It Is to bo hoped that tho commltteo of tho Greater Salem Commercial Club on tho oxtonslon of the electric linos to Chomawn will soon got n con ference with Mr. J. J. Honry, of Don. ver. tho ownor of the plant. That committee la composod of Mayor Ilishop, John It. Albert and E. A. Plerco. A meeting of the oltlzons should ho hold nt Chemawa to seo whnt can bo done to promote the mat tar. With the students, nt the school thero are about a thousand persons in that neighborhood, and their business Is worth consideringIt Is worth go ing utter with soma onergy. It will be said Uiat we alroady get their business, but that Is not true In the sense of their convenience. Those people would come to Salem live times when thy come now once If they had an electric cur Hue with service every halt hour. Salem should nppainf committer who www go and visit other commu littles that want extension of motor lines from this city, nnd tlnd out what they are willing to do to get them. 9iilem should nleo push hard fer the Kails City ami Salem railroad to 1 ooMpleied to tale city. Then are mat ters that mmu much to Create- Sa lem, and their ueglect la the greatest u wisdom. Salem has had several managements uf Its electrie plant and car lines, and what Iirb Iteeti the experience! They have lat money on the plant by thou sands of dolkirs. The Salem men who started the en terprise lost money mi the electric plant, or wire frusea out of the prop erty by sharper managers. The prop erty was run down so as to treeae them ouU Wore the two managements of the Salem- ujeotrlo car linos before Mr. Henry, for tho purpose- of building up tho property or of running It 'down, and forcing It to bo sold for a song? Did Btopptug the operation of cars to the Garden Road and to Morning side build up tho property or reduce Ub earning capacity? If Mr. Henry will reverse these pro. ccssqs and restore uiose lines, ana oven extend the electric lines, ho will increase the proflts of the business and Increase tho earning power of tlio plant. 1 If Mr. Henry will extend tho electric lines north to Chemawa and south to Liberty and Itoaodalo, and make them belt lines ho will come nearer to mak ing his propertlcfl valuable than by re ducing the service. Linos to Chemawa and Itoscdalo could mako operation expenses on cord wood alone. Tho passonger business would bo clear profit. Mr. Honry can pursue tho oxpanslon policy, or he can follow tho restrictive policy, and reduce his plant to a min imum. Tho Journal believes tho only salva tion of Mr. Henry In tho ownership of tho Salem electric linos and light plant Is in oxtondlng them, running a larger plant, and making It more profitable. Tho Journnl believes that tho only salvation of Salem Is In the extension of these electric lines. Any policy that will result In their oxtonslon should bo adopted by this city as a business proposition. An olectrlc motor line from Salem to Chemawa, or to Rosedale, or to Me hama, would double and quadruple the Intercourse between this city and thoso communities. Tho ownership of tho Salem olectrlc plant by a man who would pursue a policy of repression would bo a mis fortune to this city. Wo have had too much of that kind of ownership in tho past. A policy that will keep up tho proportlos, end oxtend them, means a groat deal to thiu city. Tho Journnl bollevos thnt Mr Henry will como nearer keoplng up tho light plant nnd extondlng tho motor linos than anyone who has yet had con trol of the proporty. Tho Journnl has boon full of com plaints of Into about the neglected condition of tho North Mill creek ditch. The proporty has become an oyosoro to tho public, nnd probably as great a problom to tho owners. It Is estimated that It will cost $2500 to repair tho ditch covorlng, nnd that whole wator powor Is a constant Bourco of oxponso to the proprietors. It Ib to bo rogrcttcd that so largo and valuable n wator powor mint llo Idle, the proporty unitBod nnd depreci ating, and tho powor going to wasto. That Booms an unusual caso of ne glected opportunities. Tho powor could bo used for small er manufactories, or to mako light with for the city. 'It sooms remark nblc to go to Sllvorton for power to crcato olectrlc current, whon It Is go ing to wasto at our doors. Thoro Is a great deal of wasto with prlvato ownorehlp of such properties, and thero might be a great deal moro with public ownership. Still such a groat economc wasto is a strong nrsU - mont for Socialism. It would bo a godsond to this town If that powor could bo utilized for manufacturing purposes. It would turn all tho whuols In the city, and mnke lights for tho factories besldos. Tho Portland ownorshlp of the Sa eom flouring mills has never beon ban eflcial to Salem. Tho closing up and removal of tho machinery of the big North mills Is woll romomborod. A circular was sont out to tho farm ers last spring thnt virtually announcod the closing of tho mills on South Mill creek. Tho farmers, for roasons host known to themselves, havo quit tak !ng their wheat to thoso mills. There Is all tho dlfforonce In the world betweon a reprosslvo and an expansive policy a policy that closes down Industries, or a polley that builds them up. Who can deny that the paralysing hand of the milling trust has been throttling the flour industry at Salem? A more enterprising management might have kept thee Industrie alive and nourishing. An expansive policy would have ex- tended the markets for Salem flour, would have Increased the output. would have encouraged the farmers in luit In n 1ii)-a auMuBB it u-Tiant .ml made mouei at the SAiue. A rlirkui v uaIIrv Vina otmuul Oik .... .::" "i pianw. naa reuuew me ncreae or wHeat. 1ms destroyed Salem as a mar ket tor wheat, while mills all around us have made money eut of the mill lug buelneee. The Salem willing plants, under an euterpribtng and progreeelve policy, would have enlarged their business, would have utilised more water power, instead of letting It go to waste. An expaueton policy would have found more wheat to grind, would have encouraged the wheat grower and built up Salem as a market for grain and flour and mlllsmtrg. A different managqment or control of thoso water powers and large mills might havo mado them very valuable 'pieces of property, and capable of earning money for tho owners. In place of having them stand idlo tho greater part of tho year, and In placo of removing tho machinery and closing tho mills, a better manager would havo run them summer end winter, day and night, as other mills run. A more enterprising ownership might havo made these, properties earn great proflts, and would In overy way havo extended their business. In stead of killing It off systematically by thvj reverse procoss. There may ho persons who grow weary of tho discussion of matters re lating to the growth and expansion of this city. To alt such wo will say that without agitation thoro Is only stagnation ahead of this community. Why? Because thoro are so many othor live, pushing places competing. for public attontlon, that a Salem nowspapor cannot afford to remain si lent and Indifferent. Progress is tho law of tho world, and a city cannot afford to adopt tho slow process of vogetatlon. There Is too much Invested hero already. If ono Individual owned tho city, he could not afford to allow his capital to become unprofitable. Ho would push for proflts. If the annual Increaso In values nnd tho annual earning power was not equal to tlio Interest on the Invest mont, ho would try to mako It so. Whon tho unearned Increment at tachlng to any community Is less than tho fixed charges, that city will run bohlnd. It may oven gain In popula tion, but it is growing pooror. So a city cannot afford to fall below Its maximum rate of growth. If it does, It Is what Is called a slow town. Salem cannot afford to grow nt a snnll's pace. From that standpoint this papor wIU discuss and agitato Greater Salem. f JOURNAL X-RAYS j The press of tho stato Is giving Sa lem columns nnd columns of fine com pllmonts some of them undeserved but all appreciated.
