HOME FOR STRAY
' Here is some news that stamps the city of Tacoma as a pro
gressive community.
Tacoma this summer will have the only real home for stray
animals on the coast. . ,
For some months William S. Vari Voris ha3 been raising money
by popular subscription, and all but a small part of the amount
necessary has been subscribed.
Plans have been gone over and suitable ones selected and an
estimate made of the cost.
There will be sanitary kennels, steam-heated, with steel cages
and cement floors. 1
Other compartments will be arranged for the caring of cat3 and
other animals. .
Van Voris says he has in view several tracts on which such a
home can be erected.
As soon as the entire subscription is raised the city will be
asked to contribute. .
The Tacoma Humane Society will join with the city for the
purpose of caring for the animals.
In Eastern cities where large, airy kennels are kept up a great
part of the expense is paid by the sale of animals picked up on
the streets.
WHY DEFY THE LAW?
The old Oregon machine is moving heaven and earth to keep
their hold on federal pap
They were turned down by the people who carried Oregon for
a progressive candidate for president three to one against Taft.
With the Oregon delegation instructed for Roosevelt the ma
chine wants the Taft national committeeman.
That is to keep men in office in Oregon who will do the dirty
work of the machine.
Will the Bourbons never learn?
Can they not see that the people are determined to have a new
order of things?
There is not a federal office in Oregon which could not be con
ducted a great deal cheaper than it is.
Most of them are sinecures.
A sinecure is a soft snap where an official has nothing to do
but draw his pay.
The Oregonian publishes as very important news that Na
tional Committeeman Williamsstarts East Tuesday.
It also announces that nothing will be done for some time
about reappointing federal officials.
That is all the machine can think of in connection with nation
al politics.
Who is to get the plums, and how can the plums be made to
contain more salaried sweetness.
In the meantime Roomevelt goes on battering down the walls
of professional officialism. ,
He is going to be nominated and elected by the biggest majori
ty any man ever received who ran for the presidency.
The foolish Oregon machine will continue to go on its career of
defying the law and opposing the popular will.
Wtill, it will only help the day of their doom, and when they are
cleaned out they will go hide, hair and tail.
OLD TURNER WAKING UP.
From trie sleep of half a century the good old town of Turner is
WfMnp; up.
The establishment of a bank there a year ago was the starter
of things upward.
Not satisfied with being a mere place for holding an annual
campmeeting Turner aspires.
A new lumber yard has been opened up by the Wassom
Bros., of Salem, two enterprising men.
Then Simpson, one of the best rustlers in Salem, has located
there, and is pushing things.
The mayor and city council are progressive, and ready to push
anvthing for the good of the town.
There is even talk of paving the principal street with some
thing besides water and cow droppings.
A commercial club has been organized, and there is talk of an
electric, railroad to Salem.
The Welch line has two surveys, one past the Reform School
and one via the Red Hills.
Watch old Turner come to the front, and The Capital Journal
will help jar loose.

They might be culled the commit
tee of over-reachera. They descended
on tho Inst legislature, the Assyrians

wolves coming flown on the sheep

the taxpayers' money for so-called
higher education. Twenty-five gentle
men spent tho day nt Snlem very

President Campbell expressed the
belief that both of the bills would

declared that neither of them would
carry In any county In the state If
both went on the ballot.
Irvine Peeped Lrnnomy.
Before adjournment D. Frank Ir
vine, who used to make a living run
ning a country paper at Corvallls, and
knows a little of the way people have
to die to earn real money by work
ing, suggested that consolidation ol
these schools was in the air, and
there should be a standing committee
on what might be done to ameliorate
the condition of the taxpayer In the
way of cutting out duplication. It fell
with a dull sickening thud, and Judge
Bean seconded his motion. It Is ex
nected that the commission of Higher
Curriculum, or Tarantulum. or Currl-
comb, created a few years ago, might
have had something to do with that,
but It never appeared. Below Is a list
of the gentlemen who met to relieve
the taxpayers, and the position each
holds and the salary he draws, ine
regents get on an average about $150
per annum for their expenses and

some do not even attend the meetings

BITILITHIC PAVEMENT

Victory for I'repcrty Owners.
Newberg, Ore., May, 1912. The con
tract for paving the Bt reels of New.
berg was awarded by the city council
Inst night, bltullthlc being the material
selected. The decision of the council
was practically unanimous as to the
material to be used, as the mayor and
council, as well as the committee rep
resenting the property owners, have
had the matter under consideration for
some time, and have thoroughly In
vestigated the claims made by the va
rious paving companies as to the mer
its of the different materials pro
proposed. Though paving propositions, slight
ly cheaper as to Initial expense, were
submitted, It was conaldered practical
to select the more durable bltullthlc.
owing to the great saving made pos
sible In the maintenance, as this ma
terial lasts for years without the ne
cessity for repairs.
General satisfaction Is felt regard
ing the action of the council In the se
lection of paving material, a natural
result of the unanimous action of the
property ownors In signing the peti
tions thnt have been circulated In fa
vor of bltullthlc, and the work of pav
ing, which will begin at once, Is said
to be but the forerunner of much Im
provement which will take place here
this spring.
There never was a time when peo
ple appreciated the real merits of
Chaniberiuln's Cough Remedy more
than now. This Is shown by the In
crease In sales and voluntary testi
monial from persons who have been
cured by It. If you or your children
are troubled with a cough or cold,
give It a trial and become acquainted
with Its good qualities. For sale by
all dealers.
