JOHN SON & CO8 and, be convinced that we are the leading clothiers of the day. For Infants and Childran T f OC- Oe The Kind You Havd Don't delay your purchase; The old saying Is, "Don't put off till tomorrow what should be done today." Cash Is no object, your credit Is good. Why, we believe In the credit system Is because It Is the modern system of civilization. Every successful business Is conducted on a credit basis. If credit Is the wrong Idea why does the United States government conduct Its affairs on a credit basis? Why do our National banks conduct their business on a credit basis? Why does the wealthy neighbor of yours drive- up to the department store, where If he were refused credit he Would feel greatly Insulted? Why should not everybody have equal rights and privileges? The Johnson system Is credit to every honest man and woman. We don't measure your wealth; all that is necessary to obtain the easiest terms of credit with us Is your hon est reputation. Whether It la the millionaire or the honorable wage earner we make no distinction. We believe that every honest man and woman Is entitled to credit. We have conducted our business In the most honorable credit system for over twenty-two years and If you are not acquainted with our credit system come today and let us explain to you the great advantage you have over paying cash. 257 Commercial St. X X THE GAILY JOURNAL Scrlpps News Association Telegrams. 3 and 6 O'clock Editions.

SPECIAL SESSION INEVITABLE. Whon tho govornor and tho loglsla-ture-mon get through sparring thoro will probably ho a special session, to pass a little noodod legislation, and that will bo nil thoro Is of tho mattor. Tho prompt action of tho Oroator Salem Commercial Club sounds tho keynote, so far as this community Is concerned. Without a session our mu nlolpat finance) would be hopoleesly disarranged, and our progress retard ed. It la not hard to see whether the governor or the legislature would inako the most political capital out of IL The error was a legislative one that makes the session necessary. If the legislature makes more blunders at the speclul session the governor will profit by It, and will bo justified in so doing. If there bo no soselnn the collection of taxes on the levy of 1003 will not be easily possible, It communities at tempt to make such levies. There will be more litigation. Any big tax payor can stop the collection. The Southern Pacific, and other big corporations, would be Immensely richer for not collecting the tax of 1003, becnuso all the lovlos could nev er bo made and collected under any circumstances. Men holding large sums of money that they are anxious to put Into war. rout speculation would be gainers of a rich harvest, if there be no session. There will be miliums of warrant to buy. DIRECT NOMINATION OF CANDI DATE8. Qrent Interest Is being aroused In the proyoMd plan of direct nomination of candidates for ahlorman at the com iHg city election. Thar Is. under this plan, ho posel- blllty of there ttciitg a ring ticket forced upon the peoido at the rl mariea. It takes only are persons to prejent any iwaa's name as a candidate at the HoptibMcAH nrimarleo. It is presumed that tho opposition. If thero he auy to this plan, will giro tho people the same right of choioo la naming candi date. Tho HoohoMchiw bare taken aa ad v&hoo stop Ih thte mattor, and It is probable that their host mon will bo brought oat for the people to choose from at tho primaries on November Sith. Under this plan a candidate Is made, not by his own action, but by the ac tion of his friends and neighbors, and then by the direct vote of the people at the primaries. Of course-, St goes without Baying irciriTtTZTmCTCMBgEiifflimazKB that fow mon will seek the ofllce of alderman, as thero la nothing In It but self-sacrificing trouble for the public, with no possibility of reward. An alderman of sufficient business ability to accomplish any good work for tho city, or for his constituents, is generally found pushing his own busi ness so hard that he has llttlo time for public buslnoss. Still thoro is such pressing need, and the most urgent necessity for the service of our best business men in tho council, especially if there should be default In revonuee. If direct nomination will pormlt the people to bring out their best talent for the undeslrablo ofilco of aider man, it will bo a great improvomont on nomination by a ring machine. PLAIN DUTY TO CUBA. Certain congrossmon aro beginning to talk about tho "constitutional diffi culties" of ratifying tho reciprocity treaty with Cuba. Thoy seom dlsposod to raise a tlmo-wastlng controversy ovor tho oxnet form In which tho troa ty shall bo passed. It Is always easy for thoso who wish to ovado plain duty to find excuses. Tho constitutional hair-splitting which haa begun in Washington would ap pear to bo of that charactor. Thnt tho congrossmon who nre thus amusing thomsolvos aro precisely thoso who long hnvo put beet-sugar intorosta abovo national Interests la significant What tho people want what thoy have votod for In two national elec tionsIs not moro dolay In this mat tor, but tho prompt porformnnco by congress of Its plnln duty to Cuba and to tho United States. The wolfaro of Cuba and tho wel fare of tho Unltod States demnnd that Cuba be no longer pormltted to drift, and that tho bonds of matornnl inter est which unite Cuba to this nation shall be knit up soon nnd woll, The gontlemen who think It good politics to palter with their plain du ty toward Cuba would do woll to look back and recall what happonod to some of tho conspicuous congressmen who paltered their plain duty In the ens of Porto Itlco. PUSHING THE PUSH CLUB. In selecting Joe, O. Graham for secretary of the Greater Salem Com mercial Club that organisation has made no mistake. He has chargo of the Balfour-Guthrie Company's milling and warehouse business In this part of the Willamette valley. He has retained the confidence of the farmers and buslnoss men hy long contact with their vital Interests. The business men of this community should give him their heartiest co-operation lu maintaining this commeroinl orgaulaatlon. The duos nre only 16 cents a month, and who Is there who cannot afford this small contribution toward a care fully-Managed board of trade? Upon publication of the annual re port of tho rotlrlng president. Hon. H. B. Tblelsen. the work of extending the organisation will begin AH who have been members in th i mt as well as Appetite's Gone Pood eaten without appetite al ways causes gastric disturbance, be cause unless the glands of the stom ach are stimulated by a desire for food no digestive Juices aro formed.

Let us push the Push Club, push the town, and we will be pushing overy man his own best Interest, as well as .promoting the community, and show ing the public-spirit, without which no 1 community can be kept alive In those .days of strenuous competition. I o I JOURNAL X-RAYS OSa0)M9OeO)O00BS3flM8 Thoro Is some sa'Isfactlon lu credi tors making it hot for Madame Pattl, when it is considered how many times sho has robbed tho Amorlcan public with her farowoll canary-warbles, It isn't overy day that a Salem man becoraos grandfather twice In ono week. Yet that Is what happened to Hon. Jos. Albright, Sr., bottor kuown under tho nickname of "Old Dlnck Joo" who was janitor of tho Oregon stato house for nearly 30 yenrs. A son was born to Mr. nnd Mrs. John Al bright, nt Portland, November Cth, nnd anothor son was born to Mn and Mrs. Theodore llarr, at Salem, Novem ber 12th. "Old Black Joo" Is giving hlmsolf tho double hand-shake, and smllos on both sldos of his mouth. It Is ono of the sights of tho lower part of tho city to soe tho X-Ray man got on nnd off the cars at the transfer point In front of Tho Journal office He rolls his trousers half way to his knoos, and picks his way out of the mud as carefully as if he wero bal ancing on the kind of oggs for which North Salem Is getting the reputation of having moro than thoy know what to do with. The person advertising in this pa per In a sarcastic mannor for a par fecto brand of hired girl Is probably one who can't keep a girl over a week at a time, and wants enough waiting on to employ a brigade of colored wait ore. The Journal isn't giving away pi anos nnd automobiles to got people to take this paper, but It offers a bargain day that enables anyone to sava a lit tle cold cash for a rainy day, and they are sure to come in Q.'ogon, as well as other states. The Elks woie in session last night when the Itose Melville show was in town, but they did not entertain hat company again, not lecause the Rose Molvlle people aro not good company, but because the memory of the !aat entertainment still lingered In their ears. It was a delightful time thoy had about live years ago. when, after Roso Molvlllo played in the Prodigal Father Cow pony, they gore the wholo cVwtnany a bouquet at thalr an tiered ball, and forgot to take their wives along that evoulng. Some still recall how the old lady of the company told Judgo Bdos he reminded hor, of her father, how a prominent young busl ness man gallanted tho soubrett how they repeated their dances and spe cialties and other parts, how two law yers nearly fought a duel as to who should lead Hose up to the small w&sh tuo of champagne punch In the center of the festal chamber. And the roast ing evry Klk got on apodal occa sions for the rest of his natural life has made them slow about undertak ing tho part of grand entertainers. A majority of tho lodge had to take a solemn pledge that whenever Salem Btka wanted to give a banquet to la dles that k be to their own wives, and they have not departed from, that vow for good and sufficient reasons. featii5B.TMnf " "ff SBu H AfcgclabJc PreparalionTor As -slmilatlng ihcFoodartdRcgiila ting ihcStoinachs nndBowtils of Promotes Digcslion.Cheerfiir rtess andnest.Contniiis neither Ophim.Morplune norlliucral.
