The Roll Of the Wheel.

The rise OF the organizations ofla-
Dor known as the Wheels, has been as
rapid as that Of the Knights of Labor,
to which organization 1t Is similar In
many respects. The Wheels originat-
ed in Arkansas, from which State
they have spread over the greater part
of Texas, where they are said to be
yery numerous. In the lasttwo years
MANY Wheels have been organized
east Of the Mississippi, especially In

Mississippi, Tennessee, and Western
Kentucky. They are said to number
100000 in all. Unlike the Knights,
they make point of taking part in
all elections of Importance in the re-
spective States, and so numerous have
they become, especially in Texas and
Arkansas, that they easily hold the
balance of power, and in some cases
are already claiming to be able 10 elect
State officers. 1t seems they are des-
tined to exert greater influence in
political matters than any similar or
ganization in the history of the coun-

THE CITY PRINTING.

Ed. CAPITAL JOURNAL:-I read
your article in the issue Of Saturday
commenting on the business sagac-
ity Of the city council of Salem in
advertising for bids to do the city
/ printing, and then awarding the
contract to the highest bidder. If
these municipal Solons had made
up their minds in advance whom
they would give the work to, why
60 to the expense of inviting bids?
In rejecting your offer, which was
y per cent lower than the States
man, they cast fairness aside and
showed their scorn for business
methods. Why attempt to keep up
any show Of decency, since they
tore down their thin disguise at last?
] am reminded of similar trick
that was practiCed i'm my former
home i'm Indiana, when number of
bids were pat i'm for a contract to |
grade and macadamize three miles of |
streets. 1t was thought there was a |
chance to make some money out of |
this, 50 three of the city fathers set
their heads together and put i'm a
bld which was accepted by the coun-
'll, the other bids that were before
hem, offering lower figures being
'ejected. This being noised abroad,
he newspapers took it up, and the
leat little enterprise was busted. |
lain that this fraud of the Salem ci-
y council in the matter Of the city
printing should not be submitted to ,

ed the long journey as much for the
purpose of improving his mind as

the writer in the Alta California,
whose article we reprinted few
days ago, is warmly impressed with
the fine opportunities presented oy
this state to the farmer, the frult

raiser, and is fair-minded enough TO
award Oregon the credit that is its

LOCATION or THE NEW DEPOT.

Mr.. John G.. Wright, president Of
the Salem Board Of Trade, yester.
day received telegram from Chas.
r. Crocker, in response toa telegram
Of inquiry about the location Of the
new depot:
John G.. Wright. President Of the
Board of Trade.-The matter Of new
depot for Salem II under con-idcu-
ton with Mr.. KOehlcr. Location
will bc made as convenient as posi-
ble and ample provision made for
the necessities of your people.
CHARLES +. CROCKER.
From this IL will be- seen that Re
ceiver KOehler n tO have say In
the location Of the new depot, and
this means that the old site will be-
chosen. The ground now owned by
the company will revert 10 the
donors when Il ceases to bc used for
depot purposes, and Mr. KOehlcr
has several times expressed his
opposition to Il change Oi location on
this score.
Another objection 10 locating the /
depot nt the State street crossing Is /
the grade between there and Mill |
Creek, which Is 50 steep that a train /
cannot hc easily stopped and started |
on II. Sull another objection is the
cost of property needed for depot
purposes. The Board Of Trade Is In
tercsting Itself In the matter and
viii no doubt bring the matter To- u
satisfactory to all parties
concerned.

bleak November day that he ADVOCATE

for it, future progress and present success.
Independent, honest and conservative in our
opinions and expressions, determined and
aggressive in combating wrong; lending a
helping hand to the down trodden and OPP
pressed without fear Of the plutocrat or
monopollst, and with the common people
along with us, we have gravitated by
tho flight of time from childhood to Ylgor-
Gus yonth. We owe our success to the
people, and to them we extend heartiest
thanks for past favors and ask for con-
tinuance Of the same generous patronage in
the future, promising in return to always
work for the best interests of our town
community and people. We may differ
with you politically at times, but when II
comes TO the welfare Of the town we have
always been first in agitating advancement
ard 1t Is pleasant for us to remember tina
of all the public Improvements made thu

mend and commend them. Is 1t not so

of Philadelphia and Lackawanna, they
nearly recover these losses by general gains,
and bring Harrison out with a majority
only 1,24O less than that given to Blaine.
1t is obvious that while such industrial cen
tres as Philadelphia, Lackawanna, Eehigh,
Luzerne, Carbon and Schuylkill show
Democratic gains, the spectre of free trade
had very positive effect upon the masses
of the people of the State.
Washington, where nearly half the wool
of Pennsylvania is grown, piled up gain OF
l, ,109 against free wool, and Allegheny, the
sister industrial centre of Philadelphia, for
the first time In our political history since
1868, gives 1900 more majority than this
city. Allegheny is now the banner county
of the State and the Gibraltar OF Republi.
canism The best that can be said for the
Democrats about the Penns, lyania vote Il
that II Is good vote to gain on when they
can pull themselves together for another

THE APPOINTMENT OF WM II. STRoH,
OF Manch Chunk, to be Associate Judge in
Carbon county, to ill the vacancy occas-
loned by the death of the late Judge Leon
ard, has caused great Geal of adverse crti-
cism by both Democrats and Republicans
in that usually quiet county. The appoint
ment was made known on Wednesday, i'm
medlately after 1t was learned that George
NJ. Davis, the Republican candidate for the
other vacancy had been defeated. Mr..
Davis is Welshman, and instead of Gov
ernor Beaver appointing him, who had
spent his money in the campaign, and done
all In his power for the success of the Re-
publican ticket, Mr.. Stroh, rich man, whe
has never done anything merltorious for
his party, Is made the appointee. Mr..
Davis Is Welshman, and Governor Bea-
yer has by this action administered re.
buke to the political ambitions of the Welsh.
Mr.. Stroh will necessarily become the can-
didate of his party for election next Fall,
and the Welsh people of Carbon county
will then administer the rebuke this action
so richly deserves. -Hazleton PeGih Speaker.
The appointment of w. f. Stroh has
certainly called forth adverse criticism, but
is Gov. Beaver to blame? We belIeve not
The political bosses who control Republi-
destinies in Carbon should bear the brun,
of this uncalled for rebuke TO Mr.. DAVIS
and the Welsh, MI. Stroh, however, is a
good man and we believe he will make a
first-rate Associate Judge. If he don't, we
loose our guess.
