THE FAIR GROUNDS BOULEVARD.
(The stroet dopartmont, the mayor and council, tho Hoard of Trade
and every live man In Salom should pull for the boulevard to the State
Fair Grounds.
City, county and state should uhito for this boulevard.
There will bo two thousand automobiles at Salem this fall at the State
Fair, and one narrow streot, twenty foot wide, Is all we have to let. people
get back and forth.
Ijot us put up a public subscription mul build II.
It is a neglect, a crime, a shamo, that some way cannot bo found to
put through a broad, oasy boufovardfrom tho State Houso to tho State
Grounds.
A growing state, a growing" fair and growing city demand It.
It Bhould bo a straight, wide streot, macadamized at least, and should
not bo made dangerous with a street car line.
This should be done at once, and there should be no dodging.
If, wp cannot rise to tho needs of a Capital City, lot us resign and ay
we do not know hqw to run a Capital City.
Salem people should know Portland is ready to take tho Fair.
ft'thero Is no other way to do this, lot there bo a decently organized
movement of tho property owners to build the boulevard.

gon: LETTER FROM SENATOR
IJOURNE.
Washington, D. C. March 15. 1910.
Colonol E. Hofor, Salem Oregon.
My Dear Colonel:
I am in receipt of yours of March
7th enclosing a petition from some
of tho granges o'f Marlon county,
asking for an appropriation for free
locks and canal at Oregon City.
I shall take great pleasure in pre
senting this in tho senate. As you
are probably aware, I introduced
somo time ago an amendment to the
River & Harbor Bill for the pur- j
poso of providing a government ap-,
proprlntlon of $300,000 to be ex
pended in cooperation with the
state for the purchase of the present
locks or the construction of new!
canal locks around the falls at Ore
gon City. The amendment Is now1
pending before the Committee on
Commerce in the senate. It is nl-1
most impossible however to secure,
an appropriation in the absence of"!
a report from the Chief of Engl- j
neors favorable to the purchase or'
construction nnd estimating the 1
amount that will bo necessary to
carry It to completion. Ncverthe-
less, I have been working very hard I
on this mutter In the hope that 1 1
may be able to secure the approprl- '
atlon which the people of Willam-
cue vaney so union uusirtr mm ii
which I believe the available com-1

By tho Lord we understand tho Divine Mind that rules tho affairs of
tho universe.
Wo read in Psalms 19 what this Divine Mind Is and docs for people.
"Tho law of tho Lord is porfect, converting the soul.
"Tho testimony' of tho Lord Is sure, making wise tho simple
"Tho statutes of the Lord uro right, rejoicing tho heart.
"Tho commandment of the Lord 1? pure, enlightening the eyes.
"Tho fear of tho Lord Is clean, enduring forovor.
"Tho judgments of tho Lord nro true nnd righteous altogether."
To understand tho abovo read It again and substitute "Divine Mind"
for "Lord" wherever It occurs and learn wisdom.
OFFICIALISM ALARMED AN PARASITES IN REBELLION.
Tho curse of modern government is multiplication of officialism, in
local, state and national affairs.
This parasite class want to dictate appointments, nomination of candi
dates and control of government.
They toll not, nolthor do they spin, and their abhorrence of working for
a living has become a second naturo.
This naturally turns them against any man who stands for tho appli
cation of business principles In public affairs.
This class of blood-suckors live lln0 tho woodcock by suction, from the
life-Juices of tho people.
They hato an honest man or an honest expression In a newspaper like
Tho Capitol Journal as a bedbug luitoj vermicide.
Docause a man, at tho ond of twenty years, has a few friends who vol
untarily back him for public offlco taey writhe and wriggle like a garter
snako with Its tall stopped on.
Tho editor of this paper has been montioned by newspapers, and Is be
ing talked 6f by friends, for tho Republican nomination for governor.
This arouses tho Iro of tho offlcial class, and tho smaller tho paraslto
that hangs on tho body politic, tho louder it squeals.
Tho thought of an Indopondont prlvnto citizen bolng takon up by tho
people and put In a pivotal position where ho would be apt to beat off
somo of the parasites is appalling.
Third and fourth-class postmasters are federal officials nnd not sup
posed to bo managing tho politics of tho pooplo, yet these pap-suckers
holler louder than any.
Llttlo, hungry, snapplng-turtlo-brainod editors, llko Billy Clarke, of
Oorvals, and Addison Bonnott, of Irrlgon, both stamp-llckers on commis
sion, can't sleop nights out of puro sllcitudo lest tho Republican party bo
raped and outraged by such a man im Col. Hofer being made governor.
Tho plainest farraor, tho hardest-working laboring man, has moro
sense and Just as much Influonco In public affairs as theso parasites
havo his Influonco kills theirs his voto does ft.
nut why should not tho petty pin-licad parasite howl, when ho knows ho
Is getting what ho doos not desorvo, and getting It for his alleged devo
tion to principles of which ho is as dovoid as a two-bit curtain polo.
Tho paraslto class may well howl at tholr prospects If Col. Hofor
should bo made govornor or Orogon. They would got such a oloanlng out
that tho state would lose a largo number of Its petty aristocracy by re
movals to other commonwealths.
Tho ox that troadoth out ita maator's corn knows Its duty no bottor than
they know tholrs, and. that Is to light Col. Hofer.

are in the city jail today because they

EASTER GIFTS
Have become popular and the custom Is growing. Theso little
gifts need not, of necessity, bo large or expensive, as thore are so
many other gifts to be mado during the year. It is, nevertheless,
decidedly graceful and. appropriate to remember one's friends on
this, one of tho most joyous festivals of the year. If flowers aro
appropriate, why not a handsome vase to put them In? Wo have
some very dainty and beautiful vases in cut glass. They aro not
expensive and we will be pleased to show them to you.
