PROGRESSIVE BUSINESS MEN'S LEAGUE.
The Salem Business Men's League is entitled to be called pro-
their repular monthly meeting it was decided to hold a
weekly Monday noonday, jfet together at the Marion hotel.
All the business men of the city will come together and partake
of a fifty-cent merchants' lunch. .
It will be on the Dutch treat order, each man paying for his
own, end as it is washday at home he hopes to fare better down
t0 At' this weekly get-together there will be a iew short talks on
live topics that are of deep interest to people right at home.
Matters like the occupation tax, terminal freight rates, milk ln
pnecti'm and auto-chemicalization of the fire department, will be
Jabbed into on one side or the other in a good natured way.
Every business man in Salem can well afford to take the hour
at noon Monday and attend these dinners of the live ones.
It Is a proper way to start off the week with good-natured
and frank expressions of good will for each other and the city.
o
If the two new school houses to be built at Salem are to be
mere duplicates of what the district already has, then there is no
excuse for pnying out thousands in fees for plans and specifica
tions. If they are to be on other lines, then the competition for
plans should be thrown open to all architects. The two new school
houses should have accommodations for the people in the su
burbs for a branch library and an assembly place for lectures
and neighborhood gatherings. The old way of erecting a forty
thousand-dollar building and buying a block of ground, and then
have it in use only six hours in the day, five days in the week
for forty weeks in the year is superannuated. Modern ideas re
quire that public buildings bo mnde useful as part of the civic
and social equipment of the neighborhood, and it is time the
board of education moved up a notch in dealing with this ques
tion. , o
THE STRAW VOTE.
The straw ballots taken by n Eugene paper show Roosevelt
190. I Follotte 81, Taft 21.
At Baker City the straw vote, taken by a daily paper there,
shows Roosevelt 105, U Follettc 80, Taft 41.
There are many othor newspnpers taking straw votes, and it
will be interesting to get hold of the returns.
There are those who decry tho straw votes and say they indi
cate nothing as to choice of candidates.
Tho only lesson of the Rtraw veto is that it is not safe to try to
force the nomination of anyone.
In the face of a strong public sentiment for popular choice of
candidates it will be wise to go slow.
Tho more nearly it would be possible to nominnte a man whom
the people really desire, the better for all.
The leadership of the Republican party in the past seems to
have taken delight in swimming against the stream.
It is splendid physical exercise, but the swimmer does not ar
rive anywhere, and sometimes is drowned.
... o
Governor West is forcing tho Issue on a state highway from
Fort land to Salem. The towns and cities and road districts
along the line have many of them acted, and will act, when they
know what the plans are. Now Governor West will establish a
rock crushing camp nt some point on the line where the road
material can bo had cheaply and in largo quantities for distribu
tion. Then-tho railroads will be asked to distribute it to their
stations. Tho localities will be asked to co-operate in distribu
tion. That Is tho lino of progress and the governor deserves
credit for grasping tho idea, for taking the initiative and show
ing the peoplo by an object lesson the value of ft good road. All
this U Mng done without bond Issues or creating high sal
aried officers. i

Sacramento, Cal., Jan. 25. Deter
mined to uncertain Just what the po
litical situation In the east really Is,
and If possible to pick truth out of
a maze of reports as to various Re
publican candidate for the presi
dency, Governor Hiram Johnson will
leave here tomorrow aiusmmu. iui
Wellington and New York. An
nouncement to this effect was made
from the governor' office today, co
incident with the arrival of Lieuten
ant Governor Wallace from Los An
geles. Wallaces will be acting gover
nor during Johnson's absence.
To reprts that Governor Johnson,
u tinned that LaFollette mnnot cap-
ro ii. a Uennlill'an nomination, is
to boom Roosevelt, the governor re
plied only, "I am for LaFollette, as
I have Been, me proBrenmvo a.
in California are unchanged."
It is known that while in New
York, to which city Mrs. Johnson
will accompany the governor, Cali
fornia's executive will hold a confer
ence with Colonel Roosevelt. It Is
believed that the tactics of the Colo
nel of Oyster Ray have mystified
Governor Johnson, and that be will
go to the source of information to
find out if the former president real
ly wanta a chance to re-enter the po
litical race.
No mutter what the result of the
conference with Roosevelt, Johnson
Is to go to Washington to meet the
Progressives there.
It Is believed to be not beyond the
range of probability that the gover
nor may be offered an opportunity to
have hlB name appear on the Pro
sxesHlve ticket as a candidate for the
vice-presidency. It Ib known that
Johnson stands high in the councils
of the Progressives and while he will
not discuss the report, It is snld that,
in the event of LaFollette's nomina
tion, the Wisconsin man's supporters
would welcome a chance to make
sure of the Pacific coast by putting
on the ticket a man from the west
ern side of the rockles.
No announcement has been made
as to when Governor Johnson plans
to return to California, hut he Is un
likely to remain more than a month
In the east.

If hlirh tax levies check the jrrowth of cities there jure a num
ber in Marion county that will not grow for some time.
But that Is not tho case when tho money levied la for neces
gary Improvements and la honently expended.
If It is expended on rottenly constructed buildings, on real es
tate ppeculntioim or wild-catting It will hurt.
lint hern Is the total tax levies In all cities of Marion county
for tho year 1912:
Aurora , 0207
Gervnls 0177
Hubbard 0202
Jefferson 02(V7
Mt, Angel 0197
Silverton f 0202
Stayton 0217
Turner 0207
Woodburn 0:152
Salem 0298
From the above showing it w ill appear that Woodburn has a
tax levy of three and a half per cent and Salem nearly three per
cent.
If the money is honestly expended these cities oucht to be verv
prosperous for the presidential year.
o
So far as the legislature is concerned, Marion county will have
n c :?wtiiing besides bold a wittenagemolte of kid politi
cians to seloet a ticket. The b!r" for high taxes is largely
charged to Marlon county. Tho delegation did not Isr.d the
right man for speaker. To gvt what they had to have in the
way of appropriations they had to pay about a million out of
tho pork barrel. Now it is just as much the duty of Marion
county not to dig too deeply Inthe pork barrel as it Is tho duty
of the man who gets no pork. The absolute necessities of the
state can be secured without giving away a million to a million
and half. Tho dose will probably ba rvpeatw!, and all this will
contribute to what many people Mieve will have to be done
alwlish the grafting, log-rolling, disreputable aggregation for
plunder called the Oregon legislature.

When your feet are so tired they
feel like. Btumps, when they ache so
that they hurt way up to your heart.
when you shamble your feet along
and It seems as though all the mis
ery you ever had has r -ttled in your
feet, look at the happy TIZ nutn In
the picture.
You can be happy-footed Just the
same. If you have corns ami bun
Ions that everybody seema to step
on. Just think of this happy TIZ
man. He had corns and bunions,;
too. This man used TIZ, and now
he has no more tender, raw, chafed,
blistered, swollen, tired, smelly feet,
corns, callouses or bunions.
As simn as you put your feet in a
TIZ bath, you tv the happiness
soaking In. It's like mountain ozone
to lungs.
Nothing else but TlZ can give you
(his happy foot feeling. Don't ac
