Phone Hals 82. 18 THERE A PAVING COMBINE? a rHERE is a pretty noisy rumor in I general circulation to the ef 1 - i&:t that there is a paving I combine here in Salem that has . . been on the job for some time. According to this rumor, an arrange ment baa been entered into, un der which the pie is pretty equally di vided, and under an old but very simple and efficient plan. It ia claimed that instead of bidding against each other, that every contract is apportioned out in advance. Every company or bidder, ays the rumor, is told in advance how much he mnst bid, or rather ho is told what the successful bid is to be and that his bid must be enough higher to be certain of being shut out. By this simple arrangement, each company would of course get its contract in turn, and the business be divided be tween them amicably and at their own prices. This story( of course, from the very nature of the subject can neither be verified nor disproved by a newspa per. The source of information an: ut off, all except the cpmpaniee or contractors, and information from them even though absolutely true, would not lie sufficient to quiet the rumor ,for naturally, people would doubt the state ments. The Capital Journal snows nothing of such a combination, but it certainly does know of the rumors, for that is common talk. It also knows thBt certain persons are keeping tab on the contracts let, in order to satisfy themselves on this subject, for they ho)d that a rotation or division of the contracts would indicate tliero was real ly such a combination. In the mean while, paving goes merrily on and it it probable by the time all tho street are paved which will not be long, tho first ones paved will be ready for "a new paving of an entirely different hind, much hotter than concrete, ash pait, or any of those obsolete mater- "Want" ai and ifl ials" and we will have it all to do over again. Thus will our live be made one joyous round of gladsome paving contracts, interspersed occasionally with a sewer or two, as a sort of side dish at the paving feast. However, if there is any truth in this rumor of a paving combine, it will crop out sooner or later, because if companies or men will combine to cinch the public, a smaller portion will combine to cinch the balance of the combine, and then there will be trouble, T A PREMATURE REQUEST HE Lebanon Criterion suggests that "in time to come it will be well to remember that the re publican party opposed the free trade tariff bill emphatically, and with practically its whole strength' This may be probably is true but utill to do so might prove embarrassing to the party. Suppose.for instance, that this "free trade" Underwood tariff bill, instead of bringing on the long chain of calamities including even free soup, which the Criterion seems to think will happen, that the reverse should prove true. Suppose times should be good, better than they have been, that the cost of living should be reduced, that tho consumer should be allowed to enjoy the products of loom an3 fac tory without having to pay a tax to some protected, industry. We say sup pose these things should happen, for time alone ea,n tell what the outcome Is going to be, and no one is wise enough to say just what the result will be. If they did hnppen that way, would it not be uncharitable and unkind to bu digging into the post, remembering the republicans were solid against it, and twitting them about the factf Let us wait until we get results, before wo call on the public to remember just how any of us stood on the tariff, and other things besides. Mrs. Alice Stockwell, Worcester, Muss. any left hand entirely. Therefore Is It any wonder that I am willing to speak a word In praise of thla good medi cine? I firmly believe It to be the BEST MEDICINE FOR THE BLOOD AND ALL HUMORS. I had a bad case of erysipelas on my hands, and on the left hand, on the Inside, at the same time, I had a very painful felon. I used poultices and liniments for three months and car ried the disabled hand In a sling all that time. The cause was undoubt edly the bad condition of my blood. "A friend advised me to try Hood's Sarsaparilla, so I bought six bottles and a box of Hood's Olive Ointment. The treatment was an Unqualified Success. improvement was noticeable very soon, and when the fifth bottle was gone my hands were all healed up and my health was better In every way. "There Is no question about It, Hood's Sarsaparilla reached the Im purities In the blood and effected a complete cure. Why, at one time, people came from all around to see my hand, and many of them told me I Would Have to Have It Amputated. Imagine my nervous, distressed con dition. Many a time when my friend dressed my hand I would faint before the long, tedious job was finished. "I am thankful that dreadful ex perience Is all over." Mrs. Alice Stockwell, 113 Plantation Street.

'As a Man Thinks." the readers of The Capital Journal Mr. Barrie says his instructions to the actors in Peter Pan: "The actors in a fairy play should feel that it was written by a child in all earnestness, and that they are children playing it in the same spirit." And so when lit tle Liza, the susposed author of the play, appears before the curtain and tells the leader of the orchestra that he may proceed, we arc prepared for all the strange things that happen. Peter Pan is a boy who did not want to grow up. When he" was a very little fellow he ran away from the human world and lived with the fairies in Nev er ..ever Never Land. But he had a great fondness for stories, and so now and then, he would fly to earth at Story Time and peep into the nursery win dows. One night, when Mrs. Darlinir was telling stories to her childrea, he ror the forthcoming tour of John crept into the room to listen. Mrs, Mason in " As a Man Thinks," his snp-1 Darling saw him and was frightened, porting company will include: Julia and Peter tried to escape, but Nana Heme, John Flood, George Gastons, , the faithful dog, who had always been Grace Reals, Jene Salisbury, Jane Stu- the Darling children's nurse, closed the art, and Frank Ditsworth. "As a Man j window so quickly that it cut off Pet Thinks," is booked at the Grand opera er's shadow, and he waB forced to fly house in th-i near future. A Progressive Century.

In tho first act we see Peter returning to the Darling house in search of his lost shadow. The children are asleep and the nursery unguarded, and with the aid of Tinker Bell, the little fairy whom mortals see- only as a danc ing ball of light, he finds the shadow. Hut he can 't make it stick on. For tunately Wendy wakea and sees the trouble he is in, and being a motherly little soul, sews the shadow on for him. Peter tells her about the fairy world ho lives in and it seems very charming to Wendy. So she wakes the other children. Peter teaches them all to fly, and away they go through the window to the Never Never Never Land. ACT II. The second act is in the MM MM MM MM, . few sr f m JJNw Ladies' Coats and llj 10.50 !

But in the darkest moment of terror Pan comes to the rescue, and the band throw the pirates into the sea. ACT V. In the fifth act the child ren return to their mother, for the heart of a child goes home when the dav of adventure is done. The last scene is a glimpse into fairy land itself. There Peter( in the little house high up in the tree tops, waves a friendly good bye to all who believe in fairies. MOLDING A CHARACTER. You are a block of rough marble.

""'7 - n N(.ver Never Never Und, where Peter run-wr. rire .issocianon, or 4 oniatlil, Oregon, met with the representative timber men of Polk county at Dallas yesterday, and organized the Polk County Fire Patrol Association with tho following directors: Geo.

Fuller, Dallas, secretary treasurer. Frank ITeyden, Falls City, supervis ing warden. With tho orgMtUation as perfected, Polk county will have the best fire protection of its history. A cam paign will Immediately be started to interest all timber owners in tho coun ty, and it is thought a very strong or ganization will result. During the honevmoon when other women look at her husband the bride thinks they envr her. and his band build a little house for Wendy. And here we see the blood thirsty pirates and their wicked leader Captain Hook, who is Peter's mortal enemy. ACT III. The third act shows the children's home underground, guarded above by their faithful friends, the Red Skins. The pirates attack the Red I Skins and drive them away, and Hook puts poison in Pen's medicine glass, but Tinker Bell saves him by drinking it horself, and is about to die when she in turn, is saved by the reassuring message that all chidren believe in fairies. ACT IV. Tho fourth act shows how It's All Off So far as health is concerned if you allow the bowels to become constipated.
