Mrs. Richards's name was not upon 1t, but
the omission was not noticed. But the 9TH

property, received notice from the lady that

STATE ITEMS OF INTEREST.

Seventy commercial travellers were at one
Bangor hotel over Sunday.
Bangor, according to the youngest of its
newspapers, seems to be growing better
right along" there being nothing but "plain
drunks and such trifles" to vary the mon
Otony.
Could you explain through the columns Of the
PRESS why the ALI american delegates are
spoken of as the Pan-American Congress. The
prefix Pan" IS hard to understand. e. L. w.
The prefix ''Pan" Is derived from the
Greek word Pas, meaning "all." "Pan-
American" means pertaining to all America,
as the more frequently used word Han
hellenic" means pertaining to all Helios, or
all Greece. The Pan-American delegates are
the delegates from All America.

OUR PEN PICTURES.
Short Sketches of Our Law Maker
And Prominent Men.
JOHN Q. WILSON.

The above gentleman is one of
Marion county's republican repre-
sentatives. Mr.. Wilson was born in
Charlottesville, Indiana, and came
to Oregon in 1852. He first went to
the mines but soon returned to Sa-
lem, which was quite small place
at that time. Since he arrived here
he has followed a number of occu-
pations, although the most of his
time has been occupied in mercan-
tile business and stock raising. In
1854 and $50 he farmed on the
French prairie In 1851 he went
east of the mountains with band
of stock but luck was against him,
as the entire band died, This mis-
fortune staring him in the face he
decided to go to the mines again
and accordingly in 1852 we find him
prospecting" While at the mines
he was elected to fill the office of
county judge for Malheur county.
He was the first judge that this
county had. In 1864 he returned to
Salem. In 1873 he once more de-
cided to go east of the mountains
and try his luck again at stock rals-
ing. In 1880 he was elected as rep
resentative from UmatilIa county,
being the first elected on the
straight republican ticket" 1888
finds him once more settled down in
Salem with his family and he has
remained here ever since.
Mr.. Wilson is one of Salem's
highly respected citizens and is al
ways in for any Improvements that
will benefit the people.

THE SUBSIDY STILL GROWS.
The $4,000 Point Will be Reached
Very Soon.

When the committee rested on
their labors Saturday evening the
total amount of funds subscribed for
the wooden mill reached $17638.
This leaves but a trifle over $1,000 to
be raised. The subscription, thus
far contains the names of 248 indi-
viduals and firms, and there are
many yet to solicit. The total $780,
600 will be completed very soon, as
the committee are now working dill
igently. To-day they are out with
the lists and many names are being
added.
Salem may soon congratulate her
self upon the addition to her indus
tries of a manufacturing establish
ment that will employ at the
no less than fifty hands
and consume at least 100000 pounds
Of wool per annum. Then make
the capital city the market place
for large quantity of wool.

AN ATTEMPTED ROBBERY.
He Tries to Get in His Work at JEFF
fersOn and is Surprised.

A bold robbery was attempted at
Jefferson late Saturday night. Lon
Tanzler was counting his money
preparatory to closing the store,
when a strange man came in and
called for a plug of tobacco. Tanz-
Ter closed the money drawer as the
man came in and as he turned
around to get the tobacco the
stranger brought forth six-shooter
and when Lon turned around again
the weapon was pointed at him and
he was requested to turn over his
money. AT this Tanzler dropped to
the floor behind the conuter and
made run on his hands and knees
along behind the counter for the
door. This he gained before the
would-be robber could tell what was
coming.
Tangler ran to his home and got
his gun and alarmed the neighbors
who joined in hot pursuit but the
stranger had escaped. He. was a
rough looking man and looked as
though he had not washed his face
fer many days. He made we'll his
escape.

Stirred up a Skunk.

To begin with, Salem really has
but one newspaper. The thing
published in the morning bears
the same resemblance to a news
paper its editor does to a gen
tleman-which is, plainly speaking,
none whatever. No sooner does he
draw in his fist, full of coin which
has been paid for the Stinker's sup
port of one measure or another, than
he begins again to emit his vile
odor. This time the brainless cats
paw is ranting over the fact that the
CAPITAL JOURNAL accused Costello
of selling liquor without a license
and because we scored the grand
jury for not looking the matter up
after having their attention directed
to him. The JOURNAL was in the
right and the Sunday following the
exposure every minister in Salem
published it from the pulpit that we
were waging warfare against cry
ing evils and should have the sup
port of every christian and conscien-
tious person for our action. This
was all before the last grand jury
met. To be sure the men composing
this panel were good and loyal men.
Did we say they were not? That
they failed to do their work well
everyone knows. Their notice was
called to this man, stamina" or
not.
Let the reader compare the course
Of the JOURNAL and the Stinker.
We tell the grand jury that Costello
Is selling liquor without a license. |
The Stinker tells the people that
Salems saloons are closed on Sun
day. 1t either knows they are open
and lies or does not and fails in its
to be newspaper. 1t has
neither stamina, justice nor truth in
It's makeup.

The Converted Gambler.

Tonight and tomorrow night at
the NJ. e. church, Mason Long, the
converted gambler, will conduct SER
vices. One of the JOURNAL force
has heard him upon several occa-
siOns and says:
There is a mysterious magnetic
power about him that cannot be ex-
planned. The more one sees of him
the stronger is the impression that
he is earnest and sincere. He does
not tread in the old beaten path and
preach the fear of hell and damna-
ton as an incentive for a better life.
He is practical and backs up his as
sertions with illustrations, at times
30 pathetic that he wins his auditors
to tears, and through that to the
Of his cause.

Celery.

A large quantity of celery is
brought into town entirely un-
bIeached and totally unfit to eat.
To raise celery thus is time and
work thrown away. No country
in the world seems better adapted
TO growing this most wholesome of
vegetables than this valley. To
bleach itls no labor comparatively,
and it seems pity to see an article
like that sent to market in the con-
dition so much of it is. Its produc-
tiOn, when properly conducted, is n
source of very great wealth. Car
loads of it can be sold at places like
Portland.

Who Mcpherson Is.

The recent scandal in the Oregon
Senate with reference to the collec-
ton of McPherson's old claim has
caused many persons to enquire who
that gentleman is. The following
from an old paper may give the de-
sired information "The Salem
Mercury of May 9th contains a let
ter from w. A. Mcpherson, in which
he renounces his connection with
the Republican party, and accepts
position as assistant editor Of the
Mercury. Mr.. Mcpherson was the
Republican State Printer Of Oregon
two years ago, and did much ser
vice for the party as an editor. He
knows whereof he speaks, and could,
no doubt, tell some wonderful things
connected with the inside machin-
cry by which that party has been
managed for several years past. We
extend the right hand of fellowship
to Nc, and trust that he will eXhib-
it fruits meet for repentance Mac

sanctum.

Inconsistent Mossbacks.

a JOURNAL reporter was convers-
ing with "A senator who disfavored
the homestead bill.
Many people here believe we
have enough inhabitants already.
In fact we don't need any more"
said he.
"That is very remarkable
opinion. Surely in region like
Oregon, capable of sustaining mil
lions of people and which has little
over two hundred thousand and
half of them in cities, it is singular
such an idea should exist tor II
moment. The very poorest men
who settle new country have often
developed resources that have laid
under foot for ages unknown. If
this region wants anything it is
people, earth workers and home
builders"
"Well we think we have enough"
he replied curtly.
In five minutes after he was boast
ing of the growth OF his country
town.
"But, Senator you don't want
that growth, YOU have enough peo-
pie now"
He laughed confusedly and said
naught.
