Employment of Labor.
The best K"X to build op a citjr h
-to give employment to labor. The
merit of public improvements lief id
this, faet.
One public building makes a, demand
ifor brick enough to lead a scare of
sues oa the street can twiee a day to
work in the brick. yard.
The contraction, of South Commer-
eiai street wonld cause abont twenty
.Thousand dollars to be expended tor la
"box fa this city.
Ten thousand would be expended on
the atreet and a much more installing
H"be plant and building a street car line
& the rock quarry.
Laboring men and mechanics and
tesunsters, whose daily employment de--pr-nd
on such work going forward,
aftronld mot oppose tho improvement.
"What eaa such men expect in the
way of employment If thy oppose the
4JTort of Mayor Waters and tho city
eonncJl to give them employment T
The construction of tbe seven con
Crete bridge should also meet with the
"hearty interest of worklograen, me
cbanles. teamsters, small property own
crs, those who have real estate to sell,
nd all who want to see Salem go for
ward.
A good permanent improvement of
aay kind ii a blessing to the oity and
its people, and to tho very property
-against which it in assessed. Property
decline in value and buildings decline
3a real as a result of stagnation, and
larJt of public improvements.
Taint tho State House White.
Tho Mate house would look like a
beautiful temple if it wcro painted
jpuro white.
Tho uso of white paint on public
"buildings is to bo encouraged, for a
number of reason.
They look larger, cleaner and more
substantial when painted whito than
In any othor color.
THero is lens chance for a graft on
pure whito lead and oil than in putting
on nhado and tints.
TJio Journal has not taken up this
matter of white on public buildings as
mcro notion, but for substantial rcn
nop. In our climate whito Is more durable
than any other color. It washes leas
and bleaches lot and covers nil do
feels in structure.
For instance, If the government post
oflleo building were pure white, it
would hido tho dark colored putty spots
In tho sandstone.
If tho now school houso woro painted
whito it would hido tub many shades of
light-colored brick that some from
dlffcronco in quality.
Tho background of cvorgrecn makes
i n white public building stand out prom
Incntly and gives a clean look to the
outsido of a- public institution.

CAPITAL NATIONAL
Jury Says the Grime Was
Murder In the Second
Degree
Guilty of marder in the second de
gree was tho verdict brought in by tbe
jary last night, after "being out nearly
10 hoars, and Charles Monte will thus
"be compelled to spend tho remainder
of bis days in the state penitentiary,
for having assisted in furnishing the
'guns to Tracy an MerrilL The ease
went to tbe jury shortly before noon
yesterday, and it was 9:45 last night
when they filed back into the court
room, and announced the verdict as
stated above. Sixteen ballots wero
taken, but the most that were in fa
vor of. murder in the first degree waa
eight.
i While waiting for the verdict Monte
'was confined in the woman's cell in
the comity jail, and paced restlessly up
and down during the entire afternoon
and- evening. Ilia nervousness began
fwhen Mr. MeXarr began his elosinc
address to the jury, and as the attor
ney proceeded with his scathing de
nunciation of tho criminal, tho nervous
ness of the man at the bar became in.
tense. When he was led into tbe court
(room last night to hear the reading
of tho verdict, anxiety was written on
every featuro. As the verdict was
read his head dropped, and he did; not
look up again until after he had been
waiting in tho sheriff's ofliao for a few
minutes for tbe car, when he suddenly
asked Sheriff Culver: "How would
on Iiko to try me for a orimo I really
ad ilonct" Receivlncr no answer to
Ibis, ho said: "You may have a chaneo
,to do so somo day.' This was taken to
be a threat that if he ever had an op
portunity he would kill the convict,
Chnjley Morris, to whom he had con
fessed his crime, and who had betrayed
his trust. They will never bo permit
ted to bo together however, as long as
Morris is at tho prison. Monte is also
very bitter against the prison officials
and tho prosecuting attornoy, and if
an opportunity afforded it Is not
thought he would hesitato to do them
injury.
As soon ns he had' received the ver
dict ho was taken out to the peniten
tiary, where, he will remain until Sat
urday, when -ho-will bo brought in to
reoclvo his sentence, and then taken
bfuk to stay.
As stated In yesterday's Journal,
tho case of the State of Oregon ' vs.
Hurry Wright, who was jointly indict
ed with Monte, wns oalled yostorday
afternoon ut 1 o'clock, and, as pro
dieted, the entire afternoon and even
ing wafc consumed in an effort to em
panel a jury. It was not until this
morning, ut 10 o'clock, that tho
twelfth man was finally qhoson, and
the presentation of tho oaso began by
tho nttorneyH, Tho entire vonjro was
exhausted yostorday afternoon, and
tho sheriff was so t out in town threo
different times to bring in n frosh sup
ply of jurors. Tho jury finally ohoson
were:

As soon as the jury had bcon - elect
ed and sworn tho stato's oaso was pre
sented and outlined- by a L. MeXnry,
who made practically the samo points
that he made in presenting the Monto
case. Ho was followed by P. II. D'Ar
ey, who very ably and clearly -outlined
tho caso on behalf of Wright, and
Jtheu tho examination of the witnesses
for 'the prosecution was begun. Tho
Irst ones called wero the same guard
