Phone Main 82. THE CITY LOSES A TEIEND. DEATH, in his own time, lays his heavy hand on all. On the babe, whose eyes he but permits to see the light, then remoriioloesly closes for ever; on the toddling little one whose little prattle, so dear to mother and father, is relentlessly silenced; on the youth, full of ambition and courage, whose visions of great things to be achieved are ruthlessly destroyed; on the girl blooming into womanhood; on the mother, with her firstborn by hor side; on the adult in the full vigor of manhood, and on him whoso years he has allowed to reach thoir full length. And it is indocd a heavy hand in every case, a hand that wrenches heart strings to the breaking point, and bears down the soul in dry-eyed anguish. This is what he brings in every case to those near and dear, but there are some cases, where his heavy hand presses hard upon the entire community. This is the case today as Salem learns of the passing of "Andy" Hofer, for the whole city had learned to rely on him. Far-seeing, energetic, creative, he was always in the van of those move ments that tended to Salem 'b welfare and betterment. Ilis active brain con ceived and his willing hands carried out innumerable things for the city's ad vancement. Evory move for greater growth, for bettor conditions, for put ting Salem to the front; and placing hor attractions and her opportunities before the world found "Andy" Hofer at its head. His services as secretary of the Board of Trado are not yet fully appreciated for their effects are now being realized and with ever increasing force. It were an horculcan task to at tempt to enumerate what he has done in this line, for if anything done here for Salem's benefit is traced back, it will show "Andy" Hofer either as its ori ginator or advocate. Salem Indeed owes him much and it is a dobt that will assume larger propor tions as the years pass by and the city profits by the good works done by him. While the whole city mourns in pro- found sympathy with those nearest and dearest to him so sadly and so ruthless ly bereaved, it for itsolf has a deep and sincere regret at its own loss, as a com- munity. SALEM'S FUTURE IS ASSURED. THERE IS NOT an inland city in the United Statos today whose prospects of Bteady and rapid growth are brightor than thoso of Sa lem. There is not ono that can bIiow a steadier or more substantial growth than Salem has had in the past four years. In that time Bhe has increased in population at leal 70 per cent, and bids fair at tho end of 1013 to have double the population the had at the beginning of the year 1SIW, or to have doubled her population in five years. Hor development has kept in full pace with her growth, as witness the splen did buildings erected in that time, five and six story buildings modern in overy way, beautiful in design, and of the vory best construction. During the same period hundreds of hanilKOine residences have been -built, miles of etroot paved, sower systom completed, and a broad foundation laid for the great future that surely awaits her. The groatest features of that development however, is in the addition to her transportation facilities. In the past four years, tho Oregon Eloe.trie has been built, giving us spina did servlco to Portland in addition to that already given by the Southern Pacific, and opening up new territory to tho north, bringing it in touch with Salem. This sumo road has built on to tho south to Eugene, opening up new territory and bringing in closer touch with the capital city, residents along its 75 miles of new track. During that time the Salem Tails City & Western has been completed to Black Rock and to the immense timber areas of the Coast range and this connection was recently perfected by the comple tion of the big steel bridge across the Willamette here, that cost nearly 300,-000. Within the past year the branch road to Fir has been completed, giving us connection with Silverton and the rich territory along the Woodburn-Spring-field branch of the Southern Pacific, and direct connection with the country up the Mohawk to Wendling, and also with Natron, which latter means, that we will have direct connection with Klamath Falls and all that section when the Natron cut-off, now building is comploted. Besides this the P. E. & E., which has taken over the Falls City & Western and the branch road to Fir, is complet ing a network of roads, all soon to be electrified, and covering the whole val ley, of which Salem Is tho center. The future railroad development promises great things and that at once. The rights of way are already secured from Salem to Stayton for the road up the Santinm and on into eastern Oregon through the Minto pass to Bend in ('rook county. Thenco it will run near ly east through the center of eastern Oregon to Ontario on Snake river where it connects with the Oregon Short Line road, giving Salem not only eommunica tiou with eastern Oregon, but another direct line to the east, This lino will probably bo somewhat shorter than the present line from Portland up the Co lumbia. Then there is the proposed line to Newport one of the finest summer re sortB in the northwest. This road will open up a vast timber area and will be one of the big factors in Salem's growth. It will be seen from this that Salem is already considerable of a railroad center, having lines extending in six directions to which in the near future will be added at least two more. The transportation facilities are great factor in the development of any city bringing to it factories and whole sale businesses, and Salem 'b splendid central location in close touch with big and rapidly developing territory, making it an ideal location for that kind of institutions. She has now reach ed that stago in her development where she is able to in a measure help herself to what sho wants, and there is nothing now that ean stop her growth. X-RAYS AND SMILES. Lillian Russell is going to Europe for the especial purpose of gathering data for an illustrated lecture to show that the conditions of working women is Europe are worse than those in Amer ica. As this will do no one any good, unless it is to help swell the once fair Lillian 's bank roll, it seems to be an unnecessary bit of labor in behalf of the down-trodden American employer. Over in England the insurance com panies have taken up a new line, "In surance against damage by suffrag ettes." This is putting that bunch of ladies in the class with fires, floods and other calamities and may cause the 'blowing up" of the insurance com panies. Miss Zelie Emerson, an American suffragette, was thrown in jail in Eng land for violating the laws and made to scrub floors. Tho throwing in jail iB easily belioved, but the making her scrub floors nothing doing if she was a real suffragette. e The Stayton Mail says in a big head line, "Railroad from Salem is in the air. " That's correct, and it will not be a long time until it is on the ground. Some one remarks that "a woman's mind is so much cleaner than a man's because she changes it so often." It's safe bet it was no candidate for of fice in an equal suffrage state, that fathered the remark. t ' The proverb has it that "you can lead a horse to water, but you cannot make him drink," now has a modern truism in the similar statement that 'you can put a suffragette in jail, but you cannot make her eat." According to the railroad commission, the C. & E. is only two streaks of rust and a right of way, and some breaks in both. The Presbytery of Southern Oregon aa endorsed the proposition to Btart a school in that part of the state for the education of Chinese residents. Any one acquainted with the Chinese char acter knows they know enough now to manage their business affairs pretty well. What else can be profitably taught themf Next year, whon the P. E. & E. gots through electrifying all its roads and the peoplo of Oregon, it will use part of ts surplus, if it has any, in buying a couple of springs and putting in an au tomatic switch on South Commercial street. The conductors do the automat ic stunt gracefully enough but they somotimes, inadvertently, of course, tread on some fellow's corns, and then the company loses the good will of that especial patron. If the public will be patient, tho attention of Attorney Moody will be called to it, and he will toll the management, and it will lay it bofore the board of directors, and if it does not interfere with dividends they will send glad news led-taping back so that the switch will be attended to next year.
