IIOFER, Editor and Proprietor Independent Newspaper Devoted to American Principles nnd the Progress and Development of All Oregon Published Every Evening Except Sunday, Salem, Oregon " SUBSCRIPTION RATES: (Invariably in Advance) Dsl'J. PT Carrier, per year .,.$5.20 Per month. ,45c Dally, by Mali, per year 4.00 Per month.. 3.r.c Weekly, by Moll, per year .... 1.00 Six monthi.SOc FULL LEASED WIRE TELEGRAPH ItEPOUT NOT SUBSIDIZED BY THE The statement is published to injure the influence of The Capital Journal that it is the subsidized organ of the liquor in terests. It is hardly necessary to assert the falsehood of this statement but silence under the charge would lend color of admission of truth. The Capital Journal in 1910 did oppose a Prohibition amend ment to the constitution because the publishers had seen the same fail in Iowa. Four years before the Prohibitionists had enacted the local option law, and the same organization undertook state-wide pro hibition. The Capital Journal warned them it would fail, and told them they would lose more than they would gain, as local option was a failure. The results proved that we were right, and, after the cam paign was over, instead of twenty-six dry counties, the Prohis had only three. In the campaign the Capital Journal declared its position long in advance of any campaign work, and was never subsi dized by any one. The same advertising and the same reading matter was pub lished and paid for by the wets in this paper as was published in the Statesman. The Statesman got even more for publications for the wets than did The Capital Journal.and it is not considered to have been subsidized. This is not said to reflect on the Statesman .but to malie the point that legitimate advertising is not subsidization of a news p.ucr. , VIOLATING THE There is a general state law pgainst Sunday labor that is not absolutely necessary, and it should be enforced. In railroad building, street work, sewer building and other public work, there is no excuse for working gangs of men and teams on Sunday. This abuse of the day of rest is growing, and it should be stopped before the practice becomes a custom. . Men and horses and machinery last longer when given one day of rest out of seven, and all people can make a living in six days. It is a discrimination against the home-loving, church-going laborer whose family want to see something of him during the week once. He is told to work on Sunday or lose his job, and many of the conscientious workingmen suffer hardship in this way. Some will work rather than lose their employment, and yet are protesting against the practice. Something should be done to stop the growing practice of working on the Sabbath day. It certainly should not be allowed on public work, where all the people are concerned. BORAH FOR VICE-PRESIDENT. The indications are that Senator Borah, of Idaho, will be the nominee for vice-president with Roosevelt. The progressive Republicans of Oregon cast their votes for him, and he will receive the most of the Oregon delegation. The Oregon delegation at the national convention are not get ting any notice whatever in the Taft organs of this state. The only man mentioned in the dispatches is National Commit teeman Williams, of Dallas, who, of course, was part of the Taft steam roller. But he represents the OregonRepublican machine, that is as far out of touch and sympathy with the masses as possible. That machine stands for reactionary and standpatter policies and opposition to all movements to give the people rights. Is it any wonder with such Republican management that men like U'Rcn, and Socialism and other systems are strong here? If Roosevelt is nominated, ofcourse, the machine politicians and reactionaries will pretend they will support him. But the people know very well that whatever is accomplished for clean-cut, decent progressive Republicanism must be done against them. OFFICIALS WHO The people are going to have a rather tight string on the can didates for the legislature and county offices through the tax payers' league. There is one thing the people are determined about men shall not go to the legislature to heap up new burdens on the taxpayers. The man who goes to the legislature to make a position for himself in the way of creating a new office for himself is a pub lic enemy to the taxpayer. There is a type of smooth politicians who make a regular prac tice of this, and of using the people's time and money to work themselves into fatter jobs. It is just as Roosevelt says, the politicians must be servants and not masters, and they have got to be taught this lesson by the voters and taxpayers. OFF ON A SUMMER CRUISE. The naval militia, whatever that is, are off on a summer cru'so. This is the now incubus on the taxpayers for which the last legislature put up $25,000. The governor .has threatened to abolish the whole thing, un less it can make a showing of some kind. A well-maintained national guard is about all Oregon taxpay ers should be held up for, anyhow. It will be found that there is another set of officials drawing salaries behind the naval militia. It is another form of building up a petty aristocracy at public expense in partnership with the federal government. THE FARMER'S Thp Department of Agriculture at Washington has just issued its 1911 Agricultural Year Book a bound volume of several hunred pages, containing much interesting and instructive in formation regarding agriculture, horticulture, stock raising, rte. Each senator and representatives has copies of this Year Bonk for distribution and any farmer can secure a copy by sending to one of the members of the Oregon delegation. R. M. HOFER, Manager LIQUOR INTERESTS. " SUNDAY LAWS. ARE A TYPE. YEAR BOOK. INITIATING CORPORATION REGULATION "HUE SKY" BILL IS NOW READY FOB SIGXATCKE OF VOTERS. The final draft for the "Blue Sky" iaw, Indorsed by the Realty board, the Portland Chamber of Commerce and the Commercial club, has been ctrefully gone over and inspected for all minor errors and Is now In the hands of the printer. Fifteen hun dred copies are to be off the press by Monday and the Chamber . of Com merce, which Is undertaking to ob tain the necessary 9870 signatures to Initiate the measure through Its sec retary, E. C. Glltner, will send copies to every commercial organization in the state to help In obtaining the names. Members of the Realty beard, the Commercial club and the Chamber of Commerce will be asked to canvass In Portland to obtain the" quota of names from here. The bill, which is patterned after the famous Kansas "Blue Sky" law, will create a department of corpora tions work now done by the offices of the secretary of state and the state treasurer and see to the, en forcement of the "Blue Sky" law It self. The Oregon measure has one provision not found in the Kansas law which Is considered quite an Im provement. This provides for full publicity In the organization of cor porations. Notices of their incor poration .with all facts must be pub lished in three newspapers, giving details as to capital stock and other such matters. The work of enforcing the corpora tion laws of the state now costs about $7000 a year and under the new measure this will be lncrasedto about $12,000, but the measure will bring in additional corporation fees to the amount of about $20,000, which will mean a large surplus saved to the taxpayers. And in addition it Is estimated that the measure will save annually to the people of the state at least $1,000,000, which is now being spent for worthless bonds and stocks. The measure Is ardently advocated by Bon Olcott, secretary of state, and 500 copies of the measure will bo forwarded to his office for distri bution over the state- The National and State Bankers' associations of nearly every state In the union have Indorsed the "Blue Sky" measure as a means to protect the purchasers of bonds and stocks from the opera tions of the get-rlch-qulck fraternity. The bill which is to be submitted to the voters of the state In November has been revised and approved by some of the best lawyers in the state. Tlio 9870 names must be ob tnlned by July 3. THE JASON LEE MEMORIAL CHURCH IS DEDICATED With the dedication Inst night of the Jason Lee Memorial church, Salom has another fine place of worship.

They took a little gravel And they took a little tar With various Ingredients Imported from afar; They hammered It and rolled It, And when they went away They said they had a pavement That would last for many a day. But they came back with picks and smote it To lay a water main; And then they called the workmen To put it back again. To run a railway cable They took It up once more; And they put it back again Just where it wbb before. They took It up for conduit To run the telephone; And then they put It back again As hard as any stone, They took It up for wires To feed the 'lectrlc light. And then they put it back again, Which was no more than right. Oh, the pavement's full of furrows, There are patches everywhere; You'd like to ride upon It, But It s seldom that you dare. It's a very handsome pavement, A credit to the town; They're always digging of it up Or puttln of It down. Washington Star. The big $GO,000 Bteel bridge at Stay, ton will be completed thiB week.
