It will advance jtlie Valuo or each
man's business In tills city. The al
vantage to The- Journal nlone will
amount to-25 perjeertt.
Every business will be advanced 25
per cent at least by having Another
railroad connection with the Willam
ette valley.
Both the East Side and the West
Side lines tend to keep business away
from the Capital City. Tho Dallas line
will bring business.
Tho Dallas road would make Salem
still more the hop and prune center
of tho Willamette valley, as It Is now
tho banking center.
Salem' business men should leave
nothing undone to get tho Dallas rail
road connection. Such an opportunity
would bo snapped up by almost any
other town over night.
How can we aslc Immigration and

AN INDIAN BOY'S CARTOONS.
Tho cartoons of young Harris at the
Chemawa Indian school are attract
ing considerable attention. They tell
their own story.
Tho first one printed In this paper
told tho political story of Senators
Mitchell and Fulton, and young Moody
In tho campaign.
They woro all coming puffing up
tho railroad track, showing that no
man can bo elected conator In Ore
gon who has not tho friendship of tho
railroad.
Moody was almost hidden under his

jnecos3ary and profitable, both In mind
and body.
o
THE ARCHBISHOP'S ORTHODOXY.
It Is reported that a nupibor of the
Catholic clergy have attacked tho or
thodoxy of Archbishop Christie, of
Portland, head of tho Oregon dlocense.
It is reported that tho charges
against against tho archbishop will be
carried to the pope, and that a serious
case is to bo conjured up against this
high ofllclal of the church.
Tho outside public has no means of
knowing wjiat tho charge3 are that
wlTl be preferred against the arch
bishop, and is not Interested In the,
details of tho accusations of heresy
tha.t may be brought.
The public has known Archbishop
Christie as a very Intelligent and pro
gressive American gentleman, a ischol
ar and an orator of high repute, taking
broad and patriotic views of educa
tion and statesmanship.
The archbishop has spoken on sev
eral occasions, and ho has always glv
on expression to sentiments that were
more heartily In accord with Ameri
can ideals than it Is usual from
churchmen.
The charge of being unorthodox Is
complimentary, In tho estimation of
many people, as It shows tho arch
bishop has outgrown some of tho theo
logical technicalities that hamper
smaller minds In tho profession.
The reputation of tho archlbshop
will not suffer If there Is no more se
rious matter laid at his doors than
that of being unorthodox. As a man
of cultuie, as a champion of education
and morality, as a patriotic tlcfcndor
of tho flag and American Institutions,
he has naught to foa.

All Men Should Know of the Defects
In Our Postal Service.
The United States postofflco de
partment has for nearly a year past
beon constantly under lire from guns
of large caliber, loud nolso and con
siderable execution. In tho old-fashioned
bombardments of cities, beach
es wore made In tho walls through
which tho enemy might find entrance
and through which at least tho oper
ations of tho people within could bo
observed. New-fashioned guns carry
further and hit harder. Tho modern
dynamite shell fired from a distance
of 15 miles, stilklng In the heart of
a city, would probably reduce every
thing contained on a squaro mile of
ground to Impalpable atoms.
The effects of the bombardment of
tho postoftlce department have not
been to annihilate It. But serious
breaches have been made rand the
Sentry has obtained a view of things
going on within which carry convic
tion that there are many faults In
this boasted system.
One of the postal branches not spe
cifically Involved In tho "scandals,"
but brought under observation Indi
rectly thereby and directly by other
means, Is the money order systen.
This business, which is no part of the
original postofllce plan, Is growing so
vast and developing so many dofects
that earnest efforts are being made to
dovlse an acceptable substitute for at
least the smaller denominations.
The postal money order service Is
admittedly complicated and cumber
some to the people. The process of
procuring nt the postofflco' a money
order with all tho red tape surround
ing that process, has long been a
cause of complaint to patrons. Tho
following dialogue, sard to bo the rec-
government receives a fee of three
conts each, all of which Is pays to
the issuing-postmasters if of tho third
or fourth class. Postmasters of the
first and stfeond class do not receive
tho feos, but are allowed compensa
tion for clerks who do this work at
an estimated cost of more than double
the feo thus received. Hence, all the
clerical force work at tho paying post
offices and the accounting office at
Washington, Is done at a total loss.
The uso of post check currency,
which has been almost unanlmdusly
approved by tho press of tho country,
ard which Is provided for In a bill now
pending In congress, would relieve
the people from this great inconven
lence and the government from these
losses. It Is hoped and believed that
at no distant day, tho bill, which was
last year recommended by tho post
office committee of the houae of repre
sbntatlves, wilt bo favorably acted
upon by our national legislators.

New Umpire Secured.
Jack Huston, formerly an umpire In
tho Ccast League, has been appointed.
STATE NEWS
ord of an actual transaction, pointed
ly Illustrates somo of the inconven
lencoa which people suffer:
"1 want to get a money order," she
said.
"Pleaso make out "tho application,"
replied tho clerk.
"What application? I just want to
send $15 dollars to "
"Please fill out tho blank."
"I 1 will you please fill It out
for me?"
"I can't, it's against the rules."
"Oh, dear mo, I don't believe I can.
What do you do first?"
"Write the date."
"Now let me see, Is this tho tenth
or the eleventh?"
"Tho tenth."
"I thought so, but wasn't sure. What
do I do now?"
"Write tho amount to be sent."
"It's $15."
"Well, write it on the next blank
lino."
"How easy It Is aftor nil. Now what
do I do?"
And so It goes, until each particu
lar blank has boon laboriously filled
In by the fair ono, nt the dictation of
tho long suffering clerk. This Is per
haps an extreme case, but tinder the
most favorable circumstances thoro
Is a vexatious loss of tlmo In securing
thoje ordors at tho post office. It has
beon estimated that at least hair an
hour Is wasted by evory purchasor of
a monoy order, Including the tlmo lost
In going to tho ofllco waiting for tho
order, and returning to tho starting
point. This seems to bo a low aver
ago, but as 4G million monoy ordorB
were Issued In the Unltod Statos last
year, oven on this basis twenty-threo
million hours of tlmo was lost to the
productive Industry of tho country,
Is going through tho procoss of pur
chasing thorn. Allowing ton hours for
a day's work, throe hundred days In a
year, this labor of nearly eight thou
sand men for ono yoar was thus. lost
to tho country, In buying postnl money
ordors. Tho additional loss of tlmo
accruing to thoso who collected the
ordors nt post offices, was another
serious Item.
Besides thoso loso of time and
patlouco to tho people It has been
officially demonstrated that tho outlro
monoy ordor sorvlco Is conducted at
a hoavy cost to tho government be
yond its returns In revenue. Reports
of tho auditor for tho post ofllco de
partment show that tho ascertainable
oxpondlturos for monoy ordor business
by tho department axcood tho receipts
therefrom by mor6 than $500,000 par-
annum. Thoro aro various other Items
of oxponso not accurately ascertain
able, which would largely Increase
this loss.
Tho most unprofitable feature of the
systom Is tho iieuo and pay m out of
orders of tho smalls denominations.
