Salem,
Why
There are people in Salem today who have lived
In Maine for yean and are accurately in touch with
the situation there.
The facti are that prohibition is more strongly for
tified in Maine today than ever before.
Years of hypocritical juggling with the prohibitory
law has crystalized a sentiment there that the leading
politicians can no longer outrage, and they are fast
recognizing that fact.
Two of the most conspicuous prohibition states in the
Union are Kansas and Oklahoma which are neigh
bors. Kansas, the oldest "dry" state in the West, has
a penitentiary, located at Lansing, left over from
tho days when the state was "wet," and therefore
had use for such an institution.
The late ar rival of large shipments of wo
men's Tail ored Suits necessitates quick
selling to enable us to clear the suit de
partment a t the end of this season. It has
been our custom to entirely close out each
season's goods. Such low prices on hand
some merchandise this early in the season
is without precedent, BUT OUR LOSS IS
YOUR GAINA PLEASANT WELCOME
ALWAYS AWAITS YOU HERE.

$35 Suits $27.50

Now for the genuine, old-fashioned
fall house cleaning made easier by
our modern appliances and labor-saving
helps, '
It is not only the time for clean
ing and scrubbing and polishing; but
for- brightening up the homo with
paints and varnishes, and imikin g it
permanently cheerful and cozy.
It is surprising what a lot you ran
do with a can of paint, varnish or en
amel, a brush and a little energy. That
old floor, your Boiled and scratched
woodwork, the dingy cupboard all
these can bo made clean and new if
your uso our finishes.
And don't neglect the outside of
your homo. Painting not. only ninkes
it look fresh and neat, but lengthens
the life of tho building. We Ml good
paints and good brushes with which
to apply them.

PAVING OFTWO YEARS
(Continued from page 4.)
Cross streets from Front at the point
where tho Oregon Electric is making
repairs, need fixing, it was stated.
Stolz promised action.
No one could tell Cumniings what pro
gress had been made in the sale of the
sewer bonds.
License Question.
The question of whether owners of
tnxicabs should be charged a full li
cense to tho first of the year was mis
led. Tho thief of police sought informa
tion. It W!is decided tho council did
not have power to make uny concessions
and the license charge for a day or u
year should bo $10.
Stolz pleaded that nn assessment bo
made for street purposes thut vould do
I away with the Hnnunl deficit that has
been faced, lie talked at some length
on the subject.
Kigdon wanted to know what had be
come of the ('heiiieketalligli and
Church-High assessment muddle which
had been referred to the city attorney.
An ordinance providing for the sale
of $-l!l,5;!li.(i(l in bonds was passed.
It was voted to reduce the Salem Wa
ter Company assessment 12 because of
(in error.
An ordinance correcting nu assess
incut on Cieo, W. .Iiilinsgn 's property
also was piisscd.
It is a hard tak tor a big old thing
like tho Republican party thoroughly to
reform itself. Hut sincere efforts in
that behalf nrc admirable
But the present "dry" regime does not produce in
mates enough to fill the Kansas penitentiary; and so
that commonwealth, with commendable thrift, rents
out her penitentiary facilities to her neighbor, Okla
homa, which, being born "dry," did not have use
enough for a state prison to warrant the building of
one.
The state convicts of Oklahoma are thus accom
modated in the Kansas Penitentiary, these two states
together barely furnishing enough prisoners to stock
one respectable-sized institution, where most slates of
like size have two or three apiece.
These facts, incidentally mentioned in Harper's
Weekly, fumi.h a pretty good temperance lecture,
don't they?
To the Citizen-Voters of Salem:
"Vie, the undersigned, members of the
Salem Ministerial Union, believing that
we represent the highest interests of
the eity, hereby declare our belief that
every such interest will be promoted by
the elimination of the licensed saloon
from our midst. We believe that the
organized liquor traffic is the great
est single hindrance to our city's
growth, and whatever prosperity has
come within recent years, has come in
spite of. rather than because of the
saloon.
We believe that the driving out of
the saloon will lowor taxes, as prohibi
tion has done wherever given an hon
est trial; that it will promote every le
gitimate business; that it will greatly
decrease drunkenness and immorality,
and safeguard every moral interest, af
fording protection to our young people
and our homes.
We hope the voters will read care
fully the statements on both sides of
this question, and not bo misled by the
disguised and expensive advertising of
the liquor dealers, and will remem
ber that every vote cast on November
4 for "Dry Salem" is a vote to pro
tect the homes, and to promote the
prosperity of our city.

Mrs. Kato Vaugn is to bo strictly ed

will give ono short lecture to prospec
tive housewives. She lias somo vory
convincing arguments to show that the
girls should bo trained for tho great
work of housekeeiiinit and home mak-
ing, just as boye are trained for their
life work. Mis. Vauirn writes that
mrmy people have a wholly erroneous
idea about domestic science. "It is
not in any sense, to take the place of
such fundamental branches as readinur.
writing and arithmetic, or of the cul
tural studies girls take up lator on.
To be a successful homo maker, a real
help mate, girls of this generation need
to know more about arithmetic than
simple combination of figures. Shu
should know how to apply her know
ledge of mathematics to tho business
of operating a homo of her own. She
should have nt school enough domestic
science- trainlnir to elmblo to st.mlv
food values and hygiene and sanitation
in a practical way when ho noes into
her home. She should know enough
about arithmetic, to bo able to make

advances no theories that she cannot
demonstrate. Hho uses only such
scientific torms as the most practical

Tonight at the First
Christian Church
The Salem drys have engaged J. G. Adams to spend
the week of October 20-26, inclusive.campaigning in this
city.
J. G. Adams, of Fort Worth, Texas, is a citizen of
America, known and beloved by tens of thousands in ev
ery state where a great temperance campaign has been
waged, lie is one of the most unique figures on the
American platform. He is equally at home whether he
is firing an army of devoted temperance wishers into
actve militants, or playing with a street mob, holding
them in the hollow of his hand and making them laugh
at their own folly.
Whenever he reaches a town something has started.
He has been arrested 49 times and imprisoned 12 timesj
has always refused to accept bail, and has universally
been released within an hour or two, the hero of the
town. The hatred of the brewers and distillers for this
man is matched by the love which the street crowd holds
for him.

to any husbnnd. This Bounds almost
too good to be true, but Mrs. Vaucn
has done it in a great many other
cities so there is no doubt about her
being ablo to demonstrate it hero.
Has Had Cosmopolitan Audiences.
In other cities Mrs. Vaugn has talked
to all classes of womon and has had
something helpful for all. In one of
her audiences in the south there were
several Mexican cooks with tlioir mis
tresses. In many ciises a wealthy mis
tress has brought her cook to Mrs,
Vaugn 's lecture-demonstrations. Mrs.
Vaugn writes, " I like people! I will es
teem it an actual honor to moot your
feminine readers and to give them the
benefit of. what littln I know about a
tremendously large subject before which
I am humble. I know that I will learn
something also from my audience."
A iiieHtiou box is to ho a feature'
of the school, ami women who attond
are urged to make free uso of it. Mrs.
I Vaugn welcomes questions on any sub
ject pertaining to good housekeeping
l and feels that the free duwussions of
bucIi topics, with expressions from tho
women in the audience, aro quite as
helpful as her lectures.
She is a fioor hostess who is always
entertaining suspicions.
