Kvory year thore nro thousands nnd thousands of persons who put on hol iday buying until tho laHt week beforo Christmas, and pay well for their de lay. Christmas Is n matter of planning. Nearly ovor)' ono buys something fot somebedy: figures nbout how much monoy may bo oxponded. and how it shall be spent. These plans are made days and woelM ahead. It In only hu man to want nil you can get for tho monoy, In goods nnd courteous treat ment. You enn shop NOW with plonsure and profit.

Thore nro persons ro sanslUvo that thqy oonsldor It a personal affront to refyf to their public record during a campaign. The right to overhaul the acta of any political party In a state, county, city, or naUouul campaign cannot be denied. I low would any program become possible In the affair of t(overnmfit If Individual notions In public offices ooifld not be pointed outT No one will prtotul that this right does not belong to uewtipapors, nnd no one vhould admit for u moment that it Is not campaign argument Tho wtHMure ot tne r001"1! of nny publlo olllolal, If there Is anything worth mentioning Is a duty of a news paper often disagreeable. Somo of the Cltlsons were very glad to have Tho Journal expose the bad rooord made by tho Republicans when they wore turuod out of the city government. Some of these satno men wEo ro Jolood tnost when when, their oppo- samo servlco is rondored tho commu nity at their expense Tho corn is always most comfort able on tho othqf fellow's toot We laugh heartiest when tho Joke Ib 6ri the other follow. But the ngnt to rotor o uie rocoja made by any official, high or low, or oven any prlvato citizen's connection with public affaliu, cannot be aban doned in a free country. TAKE OFF THE TAX REGISTRA TION ON VOTING.. 'me now city council should unite in asking tho Marion county delega tion to strike out of the Greater Salem charter tho road poll tax qualification Imposed on voters. It is wrong in principle to impose any taxing or property qualifications on the voter. In Its practical operation It will re sult In less and lees payment of the tax. and less voting. Even on the ono trial mado in the four wards of tho old city, tho result vfiii to keep many from voting, and to keep many from paying. Men will nolthor vote or pay under compulsion. Tho freer mon are to cast tholr ballot and the moro difficult to brlbo, and tho more secret tho bal lot, tho better tho result In good gov ernment. Tho educational Influence of tho poll tax restriction Is evil, and ovll only. Tho object lesson of the young man or first voter casting a ballot, for which some candidate or campaign committee puts up $3 00 is not en nobling. Thinking mon of all parties will agree- that tho poll tax restriction Bhould bo abolished before thero Is an. other city election, and that will have to bo done at tho special session. o I JOURNAL X-RAYS At a Iowostlmalo, not ovor half the vote of Creator Salem was cast at tho recent city election. Tho Elks seem to bo ono lodge that puts n premium on pure sociability. The Eddy bill Is raising about one sixth of tho state revenue tho first year It is In existence. Next year It will ralso one-fifth. Of courso, the farmer law-makers will be hot to re peal such a law. Somo people's Ideas of politics Is to officially doclaro that othor pcopple aro slnnors, and thon domand that thoy uo extirpated. Some of tho Country Jakos at the Young Republican Club dinner may surprlso their city cousins when It comes to oratory. If tho electric stroot car line can furnish a bolt lino to tho stato fair grounds In tlmo for tho noxt fair, and bo propared to handlo about twice as many people, It will reduce the busi ness of tho gang of profoss'ional pick pockots nbout one-half, and Increase the attondnnco nt tho state fair. It would soem that Gonoral Wood Is a little too much In 'the public oye for his own good. Tho woman editor of Tho Dallos Chronlclo hits the bullseyo this tlme: "And now comes a silly girl by tho immo of Dunn, and declares alio will mnrry the Chicago outlaw, Harry Van Dlno, ovon on the gallows, If noces snry. Such creatures show a lack of good sense and proper mental balance. There are asylums for Idiots and In sane, nnd thero should be some place whoro silly girls like this Miss Dunn could be Isolated from the respectable portion of socloty. They should not bo allowod to bo at large and contam inate by tholr examplo girls of Imma ture minds, who aro vory susceptible to any sonsatlonal Influence." 8outh Salem Personals.

Postmaster up to 8nuff. An amusing Incident Is said to havo happened somo tlmo ago to Postmas tr Summers that Is not too old to boar telling. It's about snuff. It seems that ono of our late ad ditions to Prinevllle's population, who by the way, came from a southorn stato. contracted In his early youth tho habit of using snuff. Upon his ar rival hero with the habit, he found that the demand for the artlclo did not warrant Its being carried In stock by local merchants, and falling to control his appetite, he sent to his hdme state for a fresh supply. The wrapping around the latter was strong enough to stand the entire Journey except the stage ride which lauded it In this city. In consequence the mall sack was very liberally sprinkled with the fine grained fra grant weed, and when Postmaster Summers opened the sack he was taken vvlth a violent fit of sneeclng. When his good wife went to Investi gate the Muse she also sneeaed. and the chorus was soon nugumented by the nasal explosions otjthelr assist nub. It took some tlmo to probe the ma'ter to an understanding, but Mr. Summers went at it with a sponge over his face, and when he found the source of the trouble It is said he used a gallon of perfume and his whole sup ply of small pox dlsonfoctants to re lieve the situation and himself. The party to whom the package was conslgnod Is said to havo also commonced sneezing when ho heard of his lose and is still keeping up tho performance.

Brown Onion Soup Fried Eols Tomato Sauce Rolled Flank Steak Brown Gravy Rtced Potatoes Scalloped Carrots Lima Beans Wator Cress and Beet Salad Caramel Custards To mnko the soup, peel and cut fine four largo onions.

If a puree is desired, rub all through a slevo and reheat. This is a nourish ing and easily digested soup, henco it Is especially recommended for child ren and seml-lnvalids. For the fish courso tako oilo pound and a half of skinned and cleaned eols. If cola aro not obtainable any small pan fish may be subsetitutcd. Cut In three-Inch pieces, wash, drain nnd dry thoroughly in a cloth.

Dip each pleco of fish In tho egg, thon roll in tho crumbs, making euro that no spot is loft untouched by tho ogg. As done, lay each pleco on a pan or board; do not pllo on one another. For fry ing, a deop kottlo is safest and host. Havo In it sufflclont fat to entirely submorgo tho fish. Any kind of fat may bo used; a very good combination is equal parts of lard and clarified beef suot. Heat tho fat until a thin bluo smoko rises from tho center as well as round tho Bides; test by drop ping In a pleco of bread; It should brown within half a minute. If you havo a frying basket dip It first In tho fat to groaso it, arrnngo in it four or flvo pieces of the fish and plunge In tho ho't fat; If not, uso a wire' spoon Draw ho kettlo asldo a little so that tho fish will bo browned In from four to flvo mlnutos as tho plocos nro not thick tho Intense heat will cook them In this tlmo.

'Dried lima beans should bo picked ovor, washed and soaked for twenty four hours in cold water; then drained, covored with fresh cold wator and simmered very slowly until ton- dor.
