'JJIE DEVELOPMENT OF SALES!
Abovo all othor Interests thoro
stand out the necessity for tho gon
crnl development of the Capital City.
It Is far more Important than per
sonal politics.
All know what a struggle It has
taken to ovon Includo the city itself
WITHIN THE CITY LIMITS.
Tho now cliartor Is stfll holng
fought In tho courts nearly four
years after Its adoption.
All recall what an effort It has
taken to ovon got tho population of
tho city correctly roportcd In the
railroad tlmo tables. Wo nro still
known as a city of only GOOO people.
Tho construction of better strcots
lias boon a hard llcht from the start,
"but A GOOI START HAS I1EEN
MADE, and tho development of tho
city along right lines Is Impossible
without bottor strcots.
Tho bnttlo for bottor sidewalks
nnd crosswalks has been won. It Is
now ncceptod that property owners
must build concreto or wooden
vulks ns fust ns ordered by tho city
council.
About flvo miles of now sidewalk's
Itavo boon ordorcd built by tho coun--cll,
nnd tluoo now mall cnrrlers are
to bo glvon tho city, ono for each
now wnrd. Tho now wards especial
ly need MORE WALKS AND MORE
ELECTRIC LIOHTS.
Tho now wards of tho city have
not received at the hnnds of tho city
council tho attcmtlon thoy desorvo.
Beyond n few crons walks and a few
oloctrla llehtn what have tho now
wards to show for tho taxes thoy
liavo paid 7
In tho city budgot for tho coming
pour provision must bo mado for tho
now wards. Tlioy are Improving rup
Idly. Tho city will have more rev
enues. Improvement of tho now
winds Is tho key to tho rapid growth
of Salem.
An electric line or a steam rail
road to Dalla3 would bring AS IM
MENSE VOLUME OF TRADE to Sa
lem, and It would constantly In
crease. These lines will bring In raw ma
terials to be manufactured here, will
take out the products of Salem In
dustries and distribute them over a
wider area. Our bakeries, confec
tioneries, breweries, canneries, meat
markets, laundries, printing offlces,
barbers and newspapers will all havo
A LAROER FIELD OF OPERA
TIONS.
This Is an age when the people
nro moving about. Moving popula
tion In largo numbers makes busi
ness for everybody. inni is ino
secret of the success and popularity
of electric lines.
HEDGES DID RIGHT.
In returning a railroad pas3 Sen
ator Hedges did right. Tho people
will bo glad to see more gentlemen
doing less free travollng so soon
nftor thoy get elected to tho legisla
ture
Editor Davey of tho Statesman has
NOTHING RUT CONDEMNATION
for Senator Hedges for returning
tho bluo pasteboard to tho railroad
and ovon accuses him of being after
bigger grafts as follews:
Senator Hedges, tho Demo
cratic senntor from Clackamas
county, by tho bluff and blustor
with which ho has advertised
himself as returning a railroad
pass, hns wrltton himself down
n much smnllor man than wo
had estimated htm, Mon with
big grafts to promoto will bo
now looking for Mr. Hedges.
It happens that Mr. Hedges Is one
of a law firm that has tho legal busi
ness of Bovoral largo corporations
like tho Oregon City paper mills and
tho Spnuldlng Logging company to
look aftor.
Thoso manufacturing concerns
hnvo many Interests In direct con
flict with tho railroads, ns car short
ago, freight rates, and ovon litiga
tion. HOW COULD THEIR LEGAL
REPRESENTATIVE TAKE FAVORS
of tho railroads and yet bo loyal to
thorn?
To say nothing about his constitu
ents, nnd what platform promises
he tnado thorn to sccuro his election,
Mr. Hedges cannot In Justice to his
clients tuko favors of that kind.
If Mr. Davoy's platform promises
woro closely examined ho might bo
found to hnvo got his election on an
anti-pass busts. Of course, no ono
will uccuso him of holng Influenced
by ho small a thins: ns a railroad
pass.
about tho worst piece of works ever
done In .that line In a Western Btate.
Tho Oregonlan Salem editor on
Monday admits that districts were
created to make places for cast-off
political hacks.
Tho shoe-string representative and
senatorial district reaching from the
Columbia river, including Wasco
county to the California line, was A
POLITICAL OUTRAGE.
Tho way tho state has been dis
tricted tho past ten years was a de
liberate disfranchisement of the mi
nority parties, a disgraceful game.
Under that gerrymander wo have
this year a Bo-called, house of repre
sentatives with but A SINGLE MEM
BER of tho opposition party In it.
That Is representation with a ven
geance, and the gerrymander alone
Is responsible for it. Counties nat
urally Democratic are all blotted
out.
Every fair-minded man who has
studied tho situation in Oregon
knowB THE REPUBLICAN PAITY
HAS NOT BEEN HELPED by these
methods, nor tho people benefitted.
But tho machine Is preparing to
ropeat tho outrage of politically
manipulating themselves Into office
again for another ten years.
X-RAYS
King Alfonso Is to appear Jn kilts.
Well, anything Is an Improvement on
the style ho discarded- Tho Cuban.
The cement In the school house
basement Is not the kind to cement
friendship.
Tho weather? Well, It Is made In
Oregon and nowhere el3e. It has
no competitors.

Seattle has purchased a mastodon
for her big fair. It has been dead
some thousands of years, but It Is
still a lively competitor with the
packing house products.
An enthusiastic Portlander yester
day remarked to the horso editer:
"Portland skins anything In the
Northwest." and the horso editor
heaved a sigh, and added: "Every
thing."

Look at tho IiiihIiios growing out
of tho now electric Hue building

everybody.
Fiom another standpoint an elec

Saturday night carloads of labor

Tho Marlon county court has do
cldod to go out over tho road built
with convict labor, and to accept tho
governor's offor to extend It.
Tho couvlct-bullt roads should be
extended, and they should bo pushed
not only to Turner, but to Mnrlqn,
Jefferson, Albany and Mohamn.
The spirit of co-opecntlou should
tnko the place of THE SPIRIT OF
KNOCKING and seeking petty polit
ical advantage for partisan purposes.
Tho people want convlct-bullt

will benefit Marlon county more than
other counties Is narrow bigotry,
Marlon county happens to havo
tho state capital, Couvlct-bullt
roads must start somewhere.' BUT
THEY SHOULD EXTEND BEYOND
MARION COUNTY.
Tho governor's offer to extend tho
convlct-bullt road to Tumor should
bo promptly accepted, and tho work
started going at once.
Tho good roads that havo been
built at great espouse should bo
