Short electric linos connoctltiK points In tho county with tho county neat, and with tho rlvor Btonmor linos and railroads already nt Salem will brliiR uddcj wealth and pros perity. This will bo equnlly true of tho towns connected by such erosB-vnlloy lines, as It will or all tho lamlH through which such a lino runs. THIS CAN RE PROVEN IlV EVERY TCIiKCTIIIO LINE EVER ltVII1'. No nubjoct rocolvos ho iminli fa vorable rninmont among tho live nnd prngreHlva, buslnoM mon of thiH county ac tho proposltlnn to mnko Salem I bo bub oontor of a numbor of thoo short rullronds. Tho Salem and Htpytoti Eloctrlc Tlallrond wou'd double nnd troble tho value of all the farming lands nlon tho lino, nnd WOlTMi ADVANCE EVERY KOOT !'

Tho vnluo of tho lands alono that Is the mldod value wou'd pnv for the construction of tho lino and loavo tho ownors of tho property n largo margin. AND NOTIIINCJ KIMK AVI Mi DO IT. Tho advance In tho vnluo of the farm prodMptn by having, inorw fro tiuont aecoaa to market, by hnvlux bolter murket at home and at th" end of the Hue. would more than pay for tho construction. The. added vn'ue of cord wood nlong the line from Salem to Stay ton rontructn this oUlotrie . line would moro than pay for tho whole cost of the road, atml HENCE THE ROAD 1THKI.K WILL RE A PAV. 1N(1 INVICSTMKNT. The oonMruct'on of oita Htieh Una as from Salem to Stayton by tha people benefit led along the lino nud nt each end. would be a splendid obi-rt loason of eutorprlae. It would do away with the my uterv of blah (liiHiiee In connection with railroad bulbllng. and would be A DEMONSTRATION OK CONIM HUNCH IIY THE PKOPLK IN TIIIMIMKIiYICM, TIIKIR COUNTRY AND ITS RUSOl'HCUS. bon railroad mananers build a Hue backed by a big corporation. tbe Issue stocks and bond and u lint eastern rapltal. and everybody who works for them expect big pay and right of way la very ox ponHlvo. Construct Ion oompeulea graft tho corporation. The promoters de mand largo shares of stock, and the ofllclala Issue watered stock to thctu hoIum and build MP a payroll of high imlarlod olllclala and attorney. All those methods make railroads tt twloa n much as thftv abould and THE REAL INVESTORS ARE proposition, as tney would build u mllo of fence, n cement sidewalk, or a stroot. Tho pooplo who take tho stock un der an honest mnnngoment can be the ownors of tho property and It enn bo run for their benefit nlontt tho lines THAT WILL PRODUCE THE MOST Ht'SIXESS AND AC COMMODATE THE MOST PEOPLE. If such a line can bo built from Salem to Stayton. nnd wo do not B09 why It cannot, It will be the first of n series of such llnoa that can all tin I.mIH and operated on the same plan. Tho country from Salem to 811 varton will support such a line. Tho country from Salem to Dnllns will support such a lino. SUCH LINES WILL RENKITr THE OTHER TOWNS JUST AS MUCH AS THEY WILL SALEM. What Is needed Is a public senti ment and a public conudonro In the short terminal lines as tho host moans of developing tho towns and tho country, nud a mnnngoment that will protoot tho small Inventor. There Is no ronson under tho sun why tho owner of flvo acres, or one hundred acres or flvo hundred 'acre of land nnnunt bocomo a stock hold er In Hiich a road for his own bene fit. Thoro is no ronson why n busi ness man cannot be a stockholder In entorprlso that WILL DO MORE TO Rl'ILD I'P TRADE IN EVERY COMMUNITY than nny other moans that can bo employed. Young mou who want to see open- Inge for .business, and' want to soo tho conntry fill up with people nnd develop more rnnMly In live years THAN IT OTHERWISE WOULD IN TWENTY YEARS, FAVOR ELEC THIC LINES. Why shall we wait for the man Muilatota or high tlnaure and mil lionaires and money-kings to do for ua wliat they will newr do when they ran make more money keeping the money out of clrcu'atlon ? LET US HAVE CONFIDENCE IN THE MEN OF SMALLER MEANS In our communities who are active in bushiest and who make money by tholr oner)' atid brains and Indus try Instead of rlyng on the grasp lug plutocrat of Wall Street. Blood Humors Persistent Eczema-Druggist Advised Proper Medicine-Another Complete Cure. It makes no difference how severe or long-seated a case of bad blood, humors, eczoma or scrofula may be, Hood's Sarsaparilla cures just the same. It has tho greatest record of any medicine ever made. Has received the largest number of testimonials 40,860 jn two years. It is tho one abovo nil others for you to take if you need a thorough ly good medicine for your blood. Read tho following from Mr. C. C. Bailey, a well-known pump manufacturer, of Champaign, 111. "When I asked my doctor vhat that eruption was which enmo under my rlijht car, nnd which had'refused to yield to home treatment, ho said It was a bad caso of eczema and that It would take n long time to euro It. Another doctor said It wns about tho worst enso ho over saw. I fol lowed their ndvlco -for 10 months, nnd still tho eruption would not heal. "One day I asked tho druggist If ho had nnvtlilnc ho thought would do me kooiI. lie said If anything would euro mo It wao avenuo, Champaign, 111.

Thoro was such decided Improvement at tho end of that tlmo that another bottlo effected a complete cure." C. C. Bailey, 40 K. University from the' start and nil tho way through and thnt THE CONFI DENCE OF THE PEOPLE CAN ONLY RE KEPT lY DESERVINO IT. Th Board of Trustoos of tho Sa lem and Stayton oloctrlc rnltroad are hiialuoM mon. Thoy do not pre tend to know .much about railroad building. Thoy do pretond to be ablo to account for money nnd tran sact business. Those business1 men are success ful men In tlu-lr roHpoctlve' commun ities and carofully solocted for their fairness and COOD RECORDS IN DEALING HONORARLY WITH THEIR NEKJHRORS. Thoro will bo thoso who say that It tukca oxperloncod railroad mon to billd nnd operate a railroad. Well good business men enn buy mntpr Iiils, can dlsburso money, can lot contracts, nnd enn hire compotont hulp. If It Is posalblo to mnko a worso showing of flnnnclnl mismanage ment of corpornflons THAN CAN RE SHOWN IN CONNECTION WITH THE AVERAGE RAILROAD MANAGEMENT we have yot to see It. Professional railroad flnanclora have reached the point where thev cannot sell bonds on the mnrkets of the world, and If there nro any railroads that have not been bank rupted several times we do not know or them. We say thta (or we do not want the people to be bluffed out on this enterprise of Helping themseivet. Tho profeealoua' railroad manipula tor wll not willingly see the people heiii themselves. The people are to In asked to sit down In this country and wait twen ty year while Mr. Marrlman nnd The plan for conatrurllug the Sa lem nud Stayton electric railroad that haa been endorsed by the Salem Hoard of Trade, the Stayton Com mercial olub. and by the people of Aumsvllle Is perfectly fair and just, it la a ulan DEVOID OF ALL THE MYSTERIES OF HIGH PI NANCE and that Is so plain and entare there ta no decent loa or tricky scheme possible under its operation. There will be no great stock-wa tered corporation that will pay a big corporation tax and that will be op ew to innumerable otllctal grafts.but a straight co-operative uMaiueas plan. UVHRV HOLIER OF STOCK SFRSCRIRED WILL GO STRAIGHT INTO CONSTRUCTION OF THE LINK, and wIM be mihllcly account ed for once a mouth and the people who put up the money will know what It Is used for. rock macadamized road built to Stayton at tho rnto wo aro going, nnd undor tho kind of laws we have. An oloctrlc road will bring ten 1 1 m os tho husluotg and ten tituos the development to that towns on tho lino thnt n mncadamlzod wngon road would bring; nnd croato now busi ness THAT A WAGON ROAD WOULD NEVER CREATE. An oloctrlc road undor n good business management will bo a pay ing entorprlso to thoso who put thlr money Into It, and will bo worth twico as much live yours from now as It Is today. An oloctrlc road adds groatly to tho wealth of tho "country through Which It pnasoH, and is kept up WITHOUT HKCOMING A CON STANT RURDEN ON THE TAX PAYERS. Not apoaiclng by authority, but J'ldglng from uttornnco of tho men who compose tho bonrd of trustees, they WILL TAKE FROM ONE TO FIVE THOUSAND DOLLARS' STOCK EACH IV THE PROPOSED LINE. It Is n safe puoss that fifty thous and dollars of tho stock will ho takon before evor the stock subscription roaches tho city of Salem. nnd thore la not a business man In this city who cannot afford to tnko some stock. Tho comm'tteo will t submit a prospectus Saturday of the cost of the proposed line; and of tho prob able onrnlngs of the line. ON THIS RASIS THEV WILL ASK THAT STOCK RE TAKEN.
