' SStBHIJIIION OF THE CITY treas ury. 0niiderablo interest Is being mnni QScAtzi oror tho condition of Salem's aty naaury, and Tho Journal does cmtt think it is overstepping tho bounds q iprrririety in frankly discussing the cttftgoO. Vt will bo remembered that upon tho S!lmlag1n of tho new council last Jan- 'Sixqr t was decided, as is righl and tgevper, to ozpert tho books of tho city t&ramny. Tlils was dono in tho usunl couso of tbtnuxus through a spocial committee, svjfjwMed by tho council, and no one uwin.liflse exceptions to such stops. "Thrft onimlttoo mudo a very thor xtt$h. raearch of the records, nnd In Sae joro submitted its reports, find Uj hscrepancles in records of tho ro cawilor ai treasurer. Tho errors in the recorder's accounts ivbow talnnco duo tho city of some- Hiiittg Elce $100. This was promptly uc- tkavWUQgoti by City Recorder Judah , swnfl made good. Ho has sinco ondcav- mrultlo nnd off-sets for theso items, nnd Haw tlmt if ho over does find logltl- xaottn tiff-sets or proves tho oxperts' ro Ijtwrt ineorreel that ho will bo rolin ttnirrinu. The rrrors in tho city treasurer's nc teunt aliow a balanco duo tho city of aiOTft 31100. Tho city treasurer verbal Xy UJared to tho council that no such nllnrropniicy existed. Ho Htatcd that ftn&uo tlmo ho would make n repo"t to rShc city, allowing his accounts alrlht. life was given time, and now about Ubrne months have olnpsod, but no "StilatrsM-nl has as yet appeared from "tftal oulclnl. His friends insist that Sbn imports' report is wrong, uml pon a414y It Is, but that report is an oniclal nc.umeut, uml must bo heeded until it as iirupcrly controverted. AM of Olty Treasurer Molr 'a friends fertinvii. him to ho an honest mini, and toe Is untitled to tho benefit of every U until tho matter is oiIleiuly sift vid, but tho council and tho taxpayers Jwvo n right to huvo this matter sot leil noon. Tho truth Is, the system under which 'SbJcm'a city treasurer operates is a bad vyuitm. It is lax, out-of-date, and ov y business man must admit that it 1ioiiM 1h reformed. "Under this system tlio city treasury virtually is not u elty treasury, but tho bank, which handles 4b tilty's funds, is the city treasury. The treasurer should bo provided a .yiibllc olllco, whero ho can transact tho Vuriurss of tho city ns it should bo transacted, and ho should bo paid ae tfordiugly. The Mou of tl olty troasuror drawing u numlnul salary of $100, and then turning all tho work of his oflleo over u u bank, is anything but businesslike, lint this has been tho custom in 811I0111 Vmn time immemorial. Tho treasurers wf the past huvo pursued this 1 1 no for years, nnd whatever bank happened to provide their bonds has handled the 4frrd ami done the elerleal work. Hut fyireredont does not mako this right. Since Mr. Molr's bouK have been wrled, the bank at whleh his bugl mM 1 transaoteil has rendorwl Bever ly xtatomonts, and (lnally that Iwnk lias made an entirely now But of lmoks fi the olty treasury. llut what bus tho. olty gnvoruiuoat to Ob witU a Imukf It should doul wrltb its treasurer, najl permit no In 'terwiiora of any character. In the pant, whou n vvrmnt has Xmtu jirMenteil at the Imnk for pay Mwent it has at time been Indorsed H(it paid for wimt of funds' by a luuk telle, aii.l the elty treasurer's uamo stguml throto y that tUer Xhere Is no otdiimiife uuthorUing tho pllntiHiHit of a dejiu- troasuror, and Meno has over been appointed, or miu lonl ! the eouHfll. Yt tho banks Iiayo !! their tllra 4fllelally lga th wame of th lly trwtSMtitr to their wnt- routs.

Molr ba ndmttlikl all of these jWfKuslllou to a Journal repreacuta fiS aud, in fo,l, any woH-lnformiHl JuitJiess iuuu must acknowledge the ftnlbfulnew aud force of the com- ilalut here made. cojnts,tahd our vrorfiw cilV treat Ustty admits that ihc city and taxpayers are entitled to a prompt ad justment of those discrepancies. They should bo adjusted either by disprov ing tholr correctness or by cash, but thoy should bo ia' shape promptjy. ' The system Is bad, it leads to cor ruption nnd subjects a Worthy official to unpleasant public consideration. Mt. Molr should at onco take steps to satisfy tho city government that his books are correct, and tho wholo sus picion caused by tho exporting commit teo should bo removed at once. No further dallying or delays should bo sanctioned, oithor by tho city council, or by Mr, Molr himself. That official is entitled to have his record cleared, and ho should take Steps to do it forthwith. . W nnd TRAINING FOB SUCCESS. Fathers and mothers handle their children in a very different manner. Mothers, It seems; soften their chil dren with endearments nnd rescue them from discipline. Fathers are not so lenient, having rubbed agaiust the world. There oro two schools of opinion. not well defined, perhnps, but not tho less in existence, nbout tho proper method of training youth to sustnin tho shock of battlo in llfo nnd escape tno strong anil victorious. Some are for tho hastening process. "Throw tho boy Into tho stream," thoy say, "and let him swim for It; tho way to teach ono to benr hard knocks is by experienco with hard blows, and If ho is ever to amount to nnything ho must fight for his life." Tho defenders of tho hardening process enn point to tho fnct that tho over-solicitous parent who follows tho child's footsteps endlessly und takes enro that tho breath of heaven docs not too siinrply lilow on him, who stands between htm nnd nil responsi bility, acts for him and docs his thinking for him, finds that tho most cnrefully nurturod nnd closely guard ed young man is without tho capacity to act alone becauso soiuo one olso hus been lifting for him, nud fails lament ably to stand up under tho weight of responsibility and care when flnnlly he meets It. On tho other hand, there Is tho newsboy who was thrown Into the street, aged -t, to battlo for fortuno nnd later become a colloco president: there Is tho bootblack who Is a rail road magnate and owes thanks only to Ills stout heart and quick wits; thore Is the homoleis country boy left destitute and friendless In his tender est years, who succeeds In winning fame uml fortune. Those, If not familiar examples, are talked about enough to give ono tho Impression that the proper wav to be come great Is to forego all tho ad van tuges of home training. There is chance for serious deception. Tho boy who achieves success under such discouraging circumstances is a remarknlilo young man one in a mil Hon. Ills career Is a glorious thing ami is an inspiration anil aa onoour ngement to tho nation.. Hut he is the kind of boy who would have succeed ed undor any circumstances. Tho other side of tho plnturo whero boys have lucked parental euro and guidance is not open to the casual yo of the world, but may bo studleil else to keep brcadlnnd butter little bam in the house.

Part of a prcucherls Christian duty, as of evory oilier rqan, is to look out for tllo welfare of his wife and chil dren, as other men do. Ho ought to have enough money to enablo him to mako a good appearance nnd to onjoy his friends and it is pcr- iccuy projior lor mm to lay up a nine against n rainy day for preachers, llko other people,, grow ,olil nnd help less, and to tho shame of Christian pcoplo it must bo said that n worn out prcachor commands but little more thoughtful consideration in this heart less world than does a kicked out shoe. , - A shabby preacher ? Is one of tho worst obstructions in tho path of hu man progress. He Is a drawback on tho gospel. The man who has to go Into an ab ject strugglo to mako a plain living is not the magnet to draw sinners to tho path of repentance Tho minister should bo n shiaing oxamplo of the claim that it pays to subscribo to the Christian system and be good. There may bo occasional exceptions, but as a gencrnl rule tho preacher ought to go whero ho can get tho high est salary, snd ho is entitled to boldly present that as a reason for going. If ho doesn't go ho is unjust to his fam ily, to whom ho owes the first duty in this world, and unjust to himself, for ho cripples himself. aad London would make about the same showing on Oregon hops. The loop-tho-loop street enr circuit will become a popular pleasure line. A ride out over that belt lino is a revela tion of tho size and growth of tho city. Now give us tho asylum and state prison loop. Mayor Bishop said at the Commercial Club tlmt the Marion county delega tion should tiblp" out. if tho Lewis and 6larko,fafr need any more money. The Woolen Mill Store man Is not on the delegation. - What would bo nicer to contemplate than one of our fine streets paved with broken granite, und kept well sprinkled In summer Tho property could well afford it, and tho city should sprinkle such a street. School Director Condit is doubtless having the books and nccounts of the rotiring school clerk thoroughly ex ported. This is duo tho outgoing nnd incoming official. Public offico and public revenues are a public trust, and no ono can object to public rovicw.
