LET US DUILD UP SALEM.
Tho last city oloction was carried
upon a distinctively progressive plat
form to build up and beautify greater
Salem.
Thoso who chargotl that Salem was
:a wldo-opon town, run solely In tho ln
toroats of the gamblers and tho saloon
.Icoopors were defeated at tho polls.
Tho proposition to spend largo sums
t)f money In prosecutions, litigation
and mornl-wavo policies gonorally was
not endorsed at tho polls.
On the other hand, men wore elect
ed who wora looking after tho gonornl
business Interests of tho city, and who
would build at least ono docent street
during the Waters administration.
If thero are porsons who caro more
for placing ono saloon keeper or one
Rumbler behind tho bars than they do
for the giowth and upbuilding of the
city, tho3o porsons nro a minority.
Will tho present city administration
waste tlmo, energy and public reven
ues In catering to this minority, or
will they piocoed upon tho platform
aipon which they wero elected?
Tho Journal bollovos they will do
the latter. Go to work oarnostly to

A WORD TO THE LABOR UNIONS.
In conversation with n enrpuntor
-yodtorduy. he stnttul that ho hud boen
out of work for six wooks.
Ho did not know when lie would get
employment. AS HE WAS WAITING
FOR ORDERS FROM THE UNION.
Many people besides tho carpenters,
nro waiting for "orders from the
tinlon."
It rumalu'8 with tho carpoutors'
union to say whether there shall bo n
general era of building In this city or
not
Tho situation Is this: Tho great
bulk of people, who want to build, do
not understand tho union, and many
of them distrust tho unions,
Thero must bo a better understand
ing, and all distrust of tho Union must
bo removed, if there Is to bo general
employment of men In tho building
trades of Salem this year.
Tho carpenters' union should, at an
early date, take action to remove tho
mlsnuderstandlng, nnd destroy tho
prejudice that now exists.
Our city Is suffering from this mis
understanding, and from this preju
dice In many dlfforent wnys.,
MANY OF OUR BEST MECHAN
ICS ARE MOVING TO OTHER CIT
IE8, WHERE THEY CAN OBTAIN
EMPLOYMENT.
Many people nro hesitating about
building, bocauso they do not know'
what they are "up against."
If wo nro to have a general era of
building prosperity, thero must bo an
effort mndo to removo thoso restric
tions from which our community Is
suffering.

wheel of the ship of progress with tho
steadiest hand and stoutest heart.
The man of Independent means, be
ho young or aldj Is out of sympathy
with the real emotions and environ
ment of the masses. He views tho
common lot only as he looks Into a
hpuso through windows. He knows
tho common life only as one who
dwells in the hills knows the life of
tho valleys.
Tho great movements of human
progress have seldom originated with
men of independent means. They
havo sprung from tho heart of com
mon people. Tho great leaders of
men have come up from tho soli.
What we need in public life, and In
private life, too, Is not tho man "rich
enough, to resist temptation," but tho
man honest enough to despise It, the
too true in his sympathies to mistake
public good and too quick In his In
telligence to bo misled.
Wealth confers many blessings up
on Its possessor, but It never yet
gave him brains or morality, though
it often robs him of both and much
else besides. Baker City Democrat.
THE VETERANS ARE FOR HER-
MANN.
This does not rotor to all tho veter
ans of tho Republican party, although
they aro almost a unit for Blnger Her
mann. It refers to tho votorans of the
Grand Army, the Indian War Veterans
and all who havo faithfully sorved
In tho wars of our country.
Many of these havo had a practical
Illustration of whut It means to havo
an efficient man to represent them In
congress.
Thero Is Uncle Jesso T. Bennett, of
Mehama, for whom a bill has just
passed both houses of congress, and
been signed by tho President. It will
give tho old preacher and1 red-hot pro
hibitionist $30 a month for tho rest
of his life.
As Blugor Is neither a lawyer, nor
practicing at any other profession, he
can glvo such llttlo matters his per
sonal attention.
The old veterans will be In the con
gressional convention which will be
held In Salem, both aa spectators and
dolegates.
Thoy aro not clamoring as loud for
a young man In congress as some of
tho othor politicians, but thoy nro
loyal Republicans, and will help elect
tho nominee of tho convention.
THE FLOWER THIEF.
The Eugene Guard says: "What
sort of a heart is It that will permit
tho young boy or girl to sneak In
premises, under cover of darkness, as
if he wero doing an act that he would
bo ashamed to commit In broad day
light, and strip a flower bed of its
blossoms? A flowor bed which, per
haps somo aged or decrepit old lady
has faithfully labored to bring to per
fection that she might enjoy a few of
the beauties of nature that ago pre
vents her going out and beholding
elsewhere than In her own yard.
Shame on the youths who will and
havo committed such sneaking thiev
ery. Why not come up In the light
of day and ask for tho privilege of
taking what you are too indolent to
cultivate, and thereby save your
selves from breaking tho command
ment, which says, 'Thou shalt not
steal.' "

A man Jn Arkansas was recently
tried for assault and battery with an
Intent to kill. The Btato brought Into
court as tho weapons used, a rail, ax,

defendant's council exhibited as tho
other man's weapons, a scythe blade,
pitchfork, pistol, dog, razor and hoe.
The Jury decided tho caso as follews:
"We, the Jury, would have given a
dollar to see tho light."
Less than 15 years ago General
Dick, tho nowly elected Republican
United States senator, was the pro
prietor of a feed storo In Akron, un

tho best-known political leader f In
tho country. Ho was accorded tho
highest honor In tho gift of his party
In Ohio, and that, too, without pre
liminary campaign and bargaining.
'He Is tho first poor man elected to
tho senate In more than a quarter of

POOR MEN IN PUBLIC LIFE.
When President Hadley, of Yalo,
said that tho public life of this coun
try needs a largo body of young men
of indopondont moauB, ho was tnflu
oncod, It la to bo feared, by the In
tero3ts of his own hundreds of young
men of Independent means.
Theoretically tho young man of In
dopondont means Is tho young mnn

young man which tho public can least

far more glittering attractions.

Well, Malcolm Moody has the satis

from a Pendleton paper, on district

sacred to bo bartered away for a nom

down, because of his morality, and

'Paid Double Taxes.
Tho most liberal man In Oregon has
been found by Sheriff Worth Houston,
of Linn county, says an Albany corre
spondent. A few days ago tho sheriff
received a letter from a resident of
ono of tho smaller cities In this coun
ty asking as to tho 'man's Indebted
ness for taxes. The sheriff sent In re
sponse to the letter a statement show
ing the Inquirer's indebtedness In de
tali, the total amount duo being $42.05.
Yesterday a second letter was received
from tho same taxpayer, returning the
sheriff's statement, and enclosing n
check for Just double tho amount of
taxes duo, $84.10. This Is the first
caso on record In Linn county that a
man voluntarily paid more taxes than
the amount assessed against him, tho
rule being that citizens complain at
the rate of taxation, and think It ought
to be much less than It Is, and In many
cases tho sheriff is directly blamed
with making tho rate so high. Sheriff
Huston thinks ho has found a jewel,
and declares tho man who is so liber
al In sottllng his taxes must surely bo
a good Democrat.

Martih's wife, over the leaie, ho
struck Martin over tho head with a
