THE DANGER OF HOLDING HOPS.
The Capital Journal advises all hop growers to close out their
crop for 1911 at thirty cents or over.
A number of times we have seen growers almost ruined by
holding their hops for speculative prices.
The normal value of the Oregon hop is about twenty cents a
pound, and hops held for higher prices are a risk.
There are large speculative holders using the newspapers to
convey the impression that hops may go to forty cents a pound.
The grower who has a crop of twenty, or a hundred, or two
hundred bales should not be deceived by such publications.
Of course, any man who is situated to take chances and who
can afford to lose, can speculate on any product.
Again we emphasize the proposition that it is positively a
dangerous proposition to hold hops now.
o
A man who has held lucrative office all hi3 life can well afford
to say that our system of government is a perfect success. If
he had to till the soil or work by the day and support a family
and buy school books for them and pay street and sewer asess
ments out of hard-earned wages, he would sing a different song.
The official, nn easy street, eating oats out of the hind end of the
wagon that is pulled by the taxpayer, cannot be trusted to pass
an impartial opinion on such matters.
o
BROADENING REFORM WORK.
The Capital Journal believes one of the greatest movements
of the times is the broadening and "practicalizing" of reform
work.
We all want to be in the big hallelujah chorus in the next
world, but we ought to be inspired with a desire to make this
world better.
To give humanity a hitch upwards, to improve the general
conditions of the masses of the people, is pointing people sky
wards. The problem of the higher socialization of the community has
been undertaken in many different ways, all more or less effec
tive. That work should be undertaken in Salem in a deliberate, in
telligent and scientific manner and including every good agen
cy. The press, the schools, the churches, educated men and wo
men owe this service a greater share of their attention than is
given it.
There are matters of the greatest importance to the develop
ment of the community, and the uplift of the people to be pro
moted. Industrial education and night schools, better art in the home,
beautifying and cleaning the city, better social conditions for the
working man and our young people, are worthy of an united
effort.
It is high time some one was thinking about a big arched
concrete bridge across the river at the foot of State street. That
is one of the biggest things for the development of Salem and
West Salem that can possibly be worked out. There would be
two arches with a pier in the middle, and two channels for ves
sels to pass under. There should be a concerted movement on
the part of our city government. It should be a bridge for the
people, and not for railroad companies.
o
WEEKLY CAPITAL JOURNAL FOR HOME SEEKERS
The Capital Journal has opened its annual fall campaign for
home seekers for Oregon.
The first step has been to print a weekly edition devoted to
giving correct information about our city and Vestern Oregon.
The Weekly Capital Journal has enlarged its scope, and, in ad
dition to being a first-class weekly family newspaper, it will be
a guide to the home seekers in Oregon.
Thousands of copies have been going out to Eastern people
inquiring about the soil, climate, products and opportunities
for location in Oregon.
If yon have a good story about your soil and will send it to
The Capital Journal we will see that it goes to the people who
want just such information.
Send us the story of your products through the mail or call at
the otlice and tell us what you have raised that will interest our
friends in Iowa and other states.
The Weekly Capital Journal, the Weekly Oregonian, each one
year, and the Pacific Northwest farm Journal three years, 'will
be clubbed to new subscribers for one dollar in advance.
See if you canot get us a club in your neighborhood at that
remarkably low rate five year:-' subscription for a dollar no
commission to anyone, but net to you.

ery Voter Before Election Day
It Desires It Understood That It
Will Xot Try to Impress Its Views
on tHe Charter, But Simply Will
Endeavor to Kvplaln Any Matters
of Which Voters Are in Doubt.
The committee appointed by the
Business Men's League of the city,
for the purpose of having the pro
posed commission form of govern
ment charter thoroughly discussed
and eyilalned, so that every voter
could cast his ballot Intelligently,
knowing and understanding what it
meant, and the changes it would
make In the governing of the city,
submits below a message to the vot
ers. The committee will take pleas
ure in answering any and all ques
tions concerning the charter, and
urgently requests all who are In
doubt as to any of the provisions of
the charter to communicate with it,
or with any of its members. It makes
the following statement:
A Message to Voters.
The charter committee, consisting
follows. The committee, consisting
of Hal D. Patton, August Huckestein
and Rollln K. Page, desires to state
that It has agreed and undertaken to
have all communications that may be
sent to it concerning the charter
question, answered and discussed a9
completely as possible through the
columns of this newspaper. It Is sin
cerely hoped by the members of the
committee that the people will ask
freely and fully about the nrovisions
of the proposed charter, and that
they will criticise the same boldly. It
Is desired to publish the name of each
person sending in a communication,
but If they do not wish to make them
selves known publicly, the'r wishes
will be respected, if they "so Indicate.
The committee will endeavor to
act as a sort of clearing house be
tween now and election day for the
purpose of receiving questions and
comments and having them answered
or discussed by men who are prop
erly Informed upon the points raised,
and In as much as the proposed char
ter is a substitute, It may be expected
that It must be open to attack and
the articles logically will therefore
be defensive and explanatory In their
nature. The committee will shape
the material for publication to best
serve the Instruction and use 0f the
public.
The committee desires to state
that Its personal views on the ques
tions will not he given pubi'cly, and
tliat where persons furnishing an
swers or comments will permit, their
names will be used. I'ndcr no con
sideration will any personalities be
published, as It Is necessary that the
dlscussslon should be dispassionate
and Intelligent, If It is to help furnish
a wise solution of this important mu
nicipal problem.
The committee appeals to the c'vic
pride and sober thought of ftU of the
people of Salem to make the columns
thrown open by the press without
charge to these discussions, instruc
tive, full of interest, and a testimo
nial of their Intelligence and patriot-Ism.

APPLE-TREE
SEEDLING ORIGINATED IN THE
WILLAMETTE VALLEY HAS
BEEN IIOUGHT BY A NURSERY
COMPANY.
For a number of years at the ap
ple shows branches of an ever-bearing
apple tree, with ripe apples and
blossoms on the same branch have

sold the other day for $600. It is a
great natural curiosity, and, so far as
known, the only one of Its kind In the
world. It is a stedling which grew up
In a fence corner on the farm of
David E. Junkin. 10 miles south
east of Albany. It Is now 10 years
old, and for several years has borne
ripe fruit from May to November of
each year, having blossoms, green
fruit and ripe fruit all on Its branch
es at the same time during the sum
mer. The apples are of good quality.
The tree was bought by a nursery
company, which is to have all Its
products for 10 years. The tree will
be left in its present situation, and
the company will utilize it in secur
ing buds and scions, in an effort to
propagate the "ever-bearing" variety.
