THE SCARLET LETTER. A young man entered a "disorderly houso" In Des Moines. Iowa, a few days ago. Among the inmates he rec ognized a young girl whom he had known in his own town and who was a schoolmate. Ho bail the girl arrest ed and sent back to her home. The nowHjmpor nceount says tho young man was "very much shocked." NO DOUBT. BUT Strangely enough, the young man oithor Oregon or Washington; Railroad estimates aro generally qulto correct, for they have every means of feoling the public pulse and getting close to tho people. If theso estimates aro correct, then tho largest tido of immigration that tho West has ever known will set in shortly and continuo most of the sum mer. Salem being ono of tho most Im portant commercial points in Oregon and tho center of ono of th richest 'M not shocked because he himself aiu most extensive gold mining fields and little happens. Your evening pa per read under tho evening lamp, in tho quiet of tho homo, loaves its im print on the community. was In such a placet Ifo did not havo himself arrested and sont home. Ho posed as a rescuer of the girl nnd would, no doubt, have resented an attempt to rcscuo him. AND YET, WHAT BIGHT OR PRIVILEGE COULD HE CLAIM AS A FREQUENTER OF A HOUSE OF ILL FAME THAT HE WOULD DE NY TO THE GIRL AS AN INMATE? When shall wo have dono with our execrablo double standard of morals When shall wo begin to demand of a young man as much as we demand of a maiden T When shall wo como to re gard a fallen mail as wo regard a fallen woman? Koto this illustratien: In Brooklyn an effort is being made to compel disorderly women in tho streets to bo conspicuous by -wearing n badgo of their calling! "In tho interest of morality and health," it is urged, "it is desirable to distinguish dopraved women and keep them under polico and sanitary observation the Hivino as saloons." But there is 110 hint of requiring do praved men to wear their badge of shame. Of course not. NO ONE WOULD EVER TIHNK OF SUCH A RE QUIREMENT. In "Tho Henrlet Letter," Haw thorne tolls us how Hester Prynne wore tho scarlet "Av" And of how Arthur nunmesdalo was torn with remorso un til, after seven years of suffering, he stood 011 the scaffold of the market place beside tho woman ho had wronged. liavo wo changed in nothing in a hundred years Still doos the woman wear alone the scarlet letter. And still the author of her ruin and the minister to liar abuser incut is received with open arms, o PREPARE FOR THE RUSH. The big fair at Portland will upon Juno 1. ' All the railroads of the country aru making uvury preparation to be ablo to carry all tho people that will visit the exposition. Tlio railroads have extensively ad vertised the fair all over the l&isl and their calculations lire that many thou sands of people will come West, not nlone to see the fair, but to sec the1 country with a view to loiatmg in in tho world, which fnct has beon ex tensively advertised, will bo ono of tho chief plncos that the travolcr from tho East will dosire to visit. In viow of this tho people of Salem should bo prepared to hospitably re coivo all who may come and bo in a position to bestow upon them that at tention that will bring about bcnoficinl results to visitors and community alike. Some plan of action should bo de vised and put into operation as early ns possible. UNDER THE EVENING LAMP. World's Work, a worthy nnd respon sible publication, read by hundreds of thousands of the best class of people in the United States, has collected some statistics concerning newspapers which are interesting to publishers, advertisers aad readers. A community in 11 progressive stnto is taken ns a test to prove which class of papors is most widely read. This test proves that out of a community of .'HO pcoplo including men, women, children and babies, 70 different publi cations wero road. Out of this num ber, 84 people read evening papers, which led tho procession, OH reading morning papers, 82 rend soml-weoklics and 80 road weeklies. Significant and convincing is this tost In favor of tho evening paper, tho homo paper, family papor. It has long been the boast of tho great morning dailies that they hold tho prestige. Tho statistic of tho World's Work proves that the claim cannot bo substantiated. This is a sig nificant fact for advertisors who desiro to reach the real newspapor, readers. Headers of morning papers glance at tho headlines and rush on to business. Headers of the evoning pupor go to their homos lit tho close of the day's work and under the calm mid quiet of tho evening lamp, peruse it from end to end and reiuombers its sugges tions. Other statistics equally as authentic, prove that S5 per cent of tho news of tho world, .tho great happenings that are Kent to tlio ends of the earth hap pen between K) o'clock a. 111. and -t o'clock p. m. because tho world's ma chinery is active during those inter vening hours. From I o'clock p. in. until 10 iPclock next day, the activities are dormant FOUR NORMAL SCHOOLS. There is moro senso in four llttlo normal schools, in four different parts of the state, than in ono great big one in Salem or Portland. The little schools do better work and serve a larger section of country, nnd 1. ,. .n,inr neonlo than one TL-Utl luuiu .'"""ft 1 1 school would rench. All four of the Oregon schools do not get as much support ns any one of tho three in Washington, or any one of tho five in Cnlifornin. Even tho Drain school, called tho baby, and sneered at by those who op poso all Normal schools, has been in existence for twenty years. A correspondent favors putting nil the normal school work into the State University. This is the place for it, if tho schools aro to go. We will wnger n big red apple thnt if tho present normal schools were abol ished' a bigger normal school, and cost ing more money than nil we have at present, would be established inside of two vears.

The services were conducted by Rev. D Errett, who spoke of her kindly dis BiTJP3raiCTrrsfflryrfrarmBffi RURAL DELIVERY AND 'PHONES. Rural delivery aad telephones aro putting tho farmers of Marion county ami tho wholo Willamette valley in closer touch with Salem, commercially, socially and otherwise. It gives them, as never boforo, rap id communication with tho outside world and instead of the news of the world a week or so old, tho farmer now gets the news by daily paper which reaches him not later than mid day of tho morning of publication. Ono nfter another of the subscribers of The Journal who havo for years taken tho weekly publication are now changing to the daily, which gives tlio telegraphic news. In doing this thoy expross their gratification over their good fortuno and the facilities afforded them to be in lino with the great advancement of the times. .. ni.. nf tho Chris was an earnest u.-uww tian church, a young lady whose quiet and sweet disposition won friends wherover she went, and one whom any ono might be proud to call a friend. Miss White would have been 21 years of age in May,nnd though her death has caused much anguish and sorrow, all who know her feel that her lite was not in vain. Tho many beautiful floral pieces and flowers nil testified to the esteem in which she was held. Tho altar was a complete bank of white blossoms, while the other flowers and floral pieces wero everywhere. Six of the young lady's most iutimato friends acted as honorary pall bearers, while Fred Kurtz, Rex Bishop, Roy Bean, Otho Rngan, Bert Hewitt nud Charles Morris wero pallbearers. The interment was held in City View cemetery, and tho remains of Miss Nel lie White, loved and respected by all who knew her, wero laid to their last resting place. Eulogizos Civil Service.

Tho report of (ho city committee to examine tho condition of tho bridges shows (hat something will have to bo dono soon. What would a reasonable business man do under tho circumstances? Ho would stop building long wooden struc tures, to rot down in ton years. Short, stool spans, or nrched cul verts should tuko the plnco of (ho pres ent system of shaky, spidery-legged piling foundations. There should be 11 verdict of tho peo ple against any moro wooden sidewalks and agniiift any more wooden bridges. The offer of a few wealthy gentlemen to contribute towards building a bridge on South Coiuiuercinl street will never materialize. It is not the way to build a bridge. If ;dl tlic wealthy men of the city paid taxes on what they havo in proportion to other, the city would have abundant reu'ime to build bridges. o ONE PLACE OR TIIE OTHER. The weakest effort we have noticed of bite is tho Snlom Journal's attempt iu Tuesday evening's issue to defend Ilinger Hermann. It 's all right for hji editor to stand iu with his friends, but Hermann's record is rotten, nud wliou the Journal wants to send him to tho I'liited States .senate, it's s little too rank for even the mot hidebound re publican to Btnmk Ilnnaim sUinls a much better chance of going to the pon itentiary (kan the waste.
