JOHN MATTHIESEEN, HOTEL KEEPER.
A BOOK ON THE SHORT BALLOT.
Houghton, JlfTlin & Co., the Riverside Press, Cambridge, Bos
ton, send us a book on the above title.
It is written by a Mr. Richard S. Childs, of New York City,
and there is an organization at the head of it.
It is in the line of centralization of political power in the
hands of fewer persons.
The commission plan of government would have all voting
done over the three offices to be filled.
All other offices are to be appointed by the three members of
the commission.
The plan of electing one man governor of the state and hav
ing all other offices appointive is part of the program.
It will leave the people very little to do, but think and pay
the bills, and swear at the results.

WORKING THE FREE PRESS GRAFT.
The demand on the newspapers for free advertising space
was exposed at the late meeting of the State Press Association.
Take one morning's mail as an example of the demands made
on a newspaper like The Capital Journal :
Two large envelopes full of copy from the Wood row Wilson
press bureau, 42 Broadway, New York.
American Medical Association, 533 Dearborn avenue, Chica
go. The American Economic League, Cincinnati, Ohio.
Department of Commerce and Labor, census bureau Wash
ington, D. C, which has become a perpetual graft on the Amer
ican people.
The Champ Clark Tress Bureau, Washington, D. C, frorn
a man who claims to be a newspaper man and wants to be pres-"
ident.
Auxiliary Tress Service, 519 Rand-McNally building, Chica
go, probably associated trusts furnishing ready-made editorials.
Northwestern Land Show, Endicott building, St. Taul, one
of the Jim Hill free advertising grafts.
Associated Trohibition Tress, 92 LaLSalle street, Chicago,
publicity bureau of a waning cause.
Friends, Romans and countrymen ! There will be three more
mails in today, all carrying their grist of deadbeat advertising.
o
A LIVE COMMISSIONER.
The new national educational commissioner is I P. Clnxton,
late of Knoxville, Tennessee.
He is a man who won his way from the ground up to the
highest position in the profession.
Mr. Claxton first made a campaign for better country schools
and better rural conditions.
He traveled over the state on foot, horseback and in every
way to carry the awakening gospel.
He then organized summer schools and carried his work into
the higher instistutes of learning.
He finally became the head of the great southern educational
movement for the uplift of the people.
He is a man of the broadest sympathies and has a message
for all the people of the nation.
The commissioner of education has in the past been held by
book men and office men.
It is now to be filled by a man who is going out face to face
with the problems of education.
The new commissioner of education was a very creditable ap
pointment for the Taft administration.
HERE'S TO THE GIRL WHO CAN COOK.
The establishment of a cookery schwi in the Salem high
school is the greatest event, educationally, in the history of the
city.
The girl who can cook for a threshing or logging crew can
get twice the wages that are paid the average stenographer.
Of course the girl who does not know how to make bread, but
can only play the piano will still have a place in the world.
For the time being she will have more worshipers but in the
long run the bread-maker will prove more popular.
The girl who can bake bread, cook vegetables, make a pound
of meat feed a family of ten, and make soup besides has a fu
ture. The girl who can only play a piano or pound a typewriter
will be paying her earnings to the girl who can cook.
The girl who can cook will always have a home, and will not
be the victim of a divorce suit half as quickly as the girl who
cannot ccok.
There is no reason why the girl who can cook should not dress
well, look charming on the street and take her place in society.
Anyhow, we are going to stand in with her, because man can
not live by rubbering alone he must have something to eat.
The new Matthiesen Hotel, corner of Columbia and Front
streets, Portland, has been opened to the public.
The proprietor, John Matthiesen, is also owner of the Hotel
Morrison, on Front street, In that city.
Both hotels are near the Oregon Electric depot and down in
the business part of the city.
The rooms are new and clean and rent for a day at 50, 75 and
$1.00, and get your meals where you like.
This is a matter of some importance to the ordinary citizen
who desires to stop at a respectable house.
John Matthiesen i3 a pioneer citizen of Portland, and a man
of property and fine family.
He is a natural born hotel keeper, a jolly host and good en
tertainer, and man of education.
Every year or two John Matthiesen takes a run over to Eu
rope ami hob nobs with the nobility.
We can heartily recommend these stopping places to our
friends when in Portland.
UNIVERSAL CONSTRUCTION CO.
FINISHES FIRST YEAR'S WORK
LAID 70,000 YARDS OF EL-OSO
THIS COMPANY LAYS THIS AMOUNT OP PAVEMENT IX THIS CITY
IX 1011, AXI SPENT NEARLY $90 000 WITH SALEM LABORING
MEN' AND MERCHANTS ITS WORK HAS PROVEN' E.MINENTY
SATISFACTORY AND HAS DONE MUCH TO ADD TO SALEM'S REP
VTATION" AS "THE CITY BEAUTIFUL."
The season closing the first year's
woric or the universal Construction
Co. in this city will end the about the
middle of the present month.
This company was organized the
present year and started actual con
struction on North Summer street
about the first of Jun on Us first
contract, for laying El-Oso pavement.
The year's business covers contracts
for paving North Summer street,
D street, Oaks addition and the
entrance to the state fair grounds.
The territory affected by this im
provement begins at Court street,
opposite the state capltol, and runs
north on Summer to Market street,
where it ends close to the North
Salem public school. The work on
Summer street has transformed that
street from a mud hole Into the most
beautiful thoroughfare in the Cap
ital city. Lined with beautiful shade
trees, Summer street Is now one of
the popular residence streets, con
taining many fine homes and several
new ones under construction. The
city has authorized a bridge con
structed across North Mill creek this
year. Property owners and visitors
aro charmed with thee appearance of
the new pavement, and are loud in
their praises. Commencing 112
feet west of Winter street, El-Oso
pavement runs east, intersecting
Summer, on "D" street as far out as
Twentieth street. This pavement al
so affords hnrd-surface travel to the
Englwood public school. Oaks ad
dition, which lies between Mill
creek and Market street, and the
Southern Pacltlc railroad track and
Winter street, Is a redlstricted res
idence district, which will be one of
the finest and most complete pieces
of Improvement work done In the
Northwest. It will be a cred't to the
city And the owners. The ndditlon
will contain paved streets through
out, cement sidewalks and curbs,
gas, sewer and water service, two
street car lines, electric light ser
vice, nnd the streets will be adorned
with beautiful cluster light posts,
similar to the ones used in this city
on State and Commercial streets.
The company expects to have the en
tire addition fully completed by the
middle of the present month. Aside
from the general benefits of the im
provement of these, streets and Oaks
addition, introducing water and gas
into these localities, the new. hard
surface streets will vitally affect the
Interests of the property owners in
the event of fire. The down-town
department enn easily reach all that
territory north of the creek over
Summer street, and the East Salem
department can reach the Englewood
school house territory via Four
teenth over "D".
North Summer and "D" streets
were finished the latter part of Sep
temper, nnd are now In the hands
of the council for acceptance. The
total aren paved covers nearly 70,
000 square yards of El-Oso pave
ment. standard El-Oso pavement la some
thing new In Salem and the com.
pany has the pleasure of knowing
that all the property owners affect
ed by the Improved district are very
well satisfied with the Improvement,
It Is a six-inch pavement with a
heavy twolnch wearing surface, giv
ing a semi-elastic malleable, water
proof surface, which has amply
proved Itself this summer, under
competition, ag being the only sure
and safe footing for horses on hard
surface streets. Considerable at
tention was directed to El-Oso pave-
, mem during the excessively hot days
on account of its perfect condition
I under extreme heat. Teamsters
sought Summer street and pro
nounced its surface the best In the
ctiy for heavy traffic, the horses ex
periencing none of the usual diffi
culties encountered on other hard
surface streets. Loose rock falling
from passing wagons wero never

J the shoes of horses pulled oft their

that no matter how hot the temper
ature, a sufficient quantity of miner
al matter Is Incorporated into the
wearing surface to keep it hard, yet
with sufficient bituminous cement
Intermixed to give it plenty of elas
ticity. In winter months the mix
ture acts conversely.
The modest claims of the company
have been more than substantiated
supported by authenticated reports
from city engineers from many other
cities where El-Oso has been laid,
and stood every test of traffic for
more than 20 years. Offering this
pavement upon its nifrits and always
inviting rlsid Inspection, the Univer
the consideration It deserves While
bright, future f0r El-Oso, which, by
virtue of Its moderate cost to prop
erty owners (Jul its superior wear
ing qualities, will certainly receive
the consideratio nit deserves. While
the company cheerfully gives the cus
tomary guarantee ex'icted by the c:ty
It does mot expect to be obliged to
repair this street for manv years, and
Is certain that It will "never have
to be resurface every year, com
monly done with other pavements
Once properly laid, there is no need
of resurfacing this pavement, since
its surface is lasting and durable.
The Universal Construction Co.
reciprocated In a business way, and
spent as much money as Is possible
with the local laboring men and mer
chants. From a rough estimate the
books of the company show that
nearly $40,000 was spent among
the laboring classes of the city. The
payroll has amounted to about $10,
000 for every month the company
operated. The company has em
ployed nearly 235 teams. General
supplies and equipment bought in
Salem reach $50,000. These figures
show that nearly $90,000 has been
paid Into Salem merchants and into
the pockets of laboring men within
a period of five months. The figures
further show that the company has
maintained the largest payroll ever
carried In this city, and that it has
generously patronized local establish
ments and freely employed local la
bor. The company's policy has been
to first employ men. and' men with
teams, living on the streets under
Improvement, then to employ white
lnbor so far as possible. Some of
the work done by the company re
quires colored help. The company
feels that In face of these figures,
showing a heavy expenditure in this
city, that sufficient public enterprise
has been shown towards Salem to
entitle it to the support, of the city
and due consideration of Its value to
labor conditions.
In closing the first years business
the company desires to thank the
people for their liberal patronage,
and assure them that all future
work will hav the same careful at
tention to constructing firstclass
Btreets with what is now admitted
to be the best pavement on the mar

DOCTORS' PRESCRIPTION FOR ECZEMA
The most advanced physicians of

zema, Psoriasis and all other forms
of skin trouble. This compound is
known as the D. D. D. Prescription.
Dr. Holmes, the well known skin
specialist, writes: "I am convinced
that the D. D. L). Prescription Is as
much a speclHc for Eczema as is qui
nine for malaria. We have been pre
scribing the D. D. D. remedy for
years."
We ourselves vouch for the D. P.

away the itch the instant you apply
I If you will call at our store we
will be glad to let you have n $1.00
bottle on the guarantee that it will
cost you nothing unless you find it
does the work. And you decide.
For that matter a trial bottle for 25
cents ought to be enough absolutely
to prove the merits of the remedy.
Drop into our store, anyway, and
as we have seen a great many cases
of skin trouble, we will give you
