for other public gatherings.
The building was just from he hands
of the carpenter a few days ago
and the "boys in blue" decided to
give a public inspection and to dedi.
cate the new hall by giving Il social
ball. Accordingly, the matter was
placed in the proper hands, and true
to announcements held one of the
most successful dancing parties there
last evening as was ever given
around those "neck % the woods"
The hall Is quite large and
is quite conveniently ar
ranged. The attendance last even
ing was extremely large, as people
for miles around were present.
The fore part of the evening was
passed in viewing the public in
spection of the company, some sixty
in number. Col. T. {. Smith was
the inspecting officer and gave a
grand display of the company in the
different tactics that are always adj
mired by every loyal citizen, when
he sees the boys in blue handle a
musket. The inspection was one OF
the pleasant features of the evening,
but the real enjoyment came in af.
terward, in the grand ball. Splendid
music was furnished by the Salem
orchestra, composed Of seven pieces,
and most Of the time twelve sets
were tripping the light fantastic,
and a jolly crowd it was. There
were Il5 numbers issued and the
dancing was kept upuntil the break
ing of carly dawn over the distant
horizon. Salem was well repre-
sented, there being all of twenty
five of ,Salem's best society folks
present An excellent supper was
furnished through the efforts of Mr..
Levi Brewer and Mr.. Ahalt. The eff
orts made 10y both parties to furnish
II good supper were appreciated by
all present. All in all the event was a
crowning success from first to last
and those from Salem, together with
the JOURNAL, wish to return kind
regards and many thanks for the
most excellent treatment received at
the hands of Company |, I'd, regi-

ant interview with the congressman
this afternoon, and was pleased TO
learn of future prospects for Salem.
Mr.. Hermann was very conVer-
SAINT and said that he had just re-
turned from the government jetties
at YaQuina, and that he was now
busy looking up important matters
concerning the state and also learn
ing the wants of the people. lie

the future prospects of Salem re-
ceiving an appropriation for a gov
ernment postoilice building he said:
"The main drawback has been be-
fore on account of the population.
President Cleveland made it Il point
to veto every measure that came up
for such an appropriation where the
population was less than 27,0OO, and
In consideration of this fact Mr..
Hermann thought it well to let the
bill rest during Cleveland's admins
tration, but now he has better hopes
and rs Salem has gained II popula-
ton now of over 1900 people the
chances are much brighter. Mr.,
Herman does not believe in making
false promises but is using all his
efforts to do his duty toward Oregon.
He expressed his willingness to
listen to any suggestions that any
of his friends might make, and was
sorry that his stay at present could
not be prolonged,

VICE PRESIDENTS POWER. - A
subscriber in the city has written to
the JOURNAL asking the power of
the vice president of the United
States on voting, and the following
answer is submitted: The constitu-
tional presiding officer of the United
state senate is the vice president,
who has no voting power except in
eases of a tie vote. In the absence
of the vice president the senate elects
one of its members rs president pro
tenn, who performs the duties of the
vice president, hut is not disqualified
to do any and all of his senatorial
duties, including the right 10 vote
upon all measures brought before
the senate. While the right to vote
upon all measures belongs to the
president pro tenn, OF the senate, it
is but seldom exercised, for obvious
reasons.

THE NEW SCHOOL LAW.-lt
would seem that in this city there
are at least POO children who are not
attending school, and, who are
under fourteen years of age. The
compulsory school law passed by
the state legislature during last scs-
sion, makes IL obligatory on parents
and guardians to send their children
who are between the ages of eight
and fourteen to school for at least
twelve weeks in each year, and
eight of them must be consecutive.
A violation of this law 10y the pa
rents or guardians Is II misdemcan-
or and punishable by II fine of not
less than So or more than S25 for the
first onensc; and not less than $50
nor more than $50 for the second
and each subsequent oflcnse. In
ease the bodily or mental condition
of the child or children is such as to
prevent their attendance, then those
who have the care of such children
are not liable to the provisions of the
law. The law is really too light in
this matter. The keeping of II child
from some kind of an educational in
stitution is II misdemeanor that de-
serves severe punishment.

4 TERRIBLE SLAUGHTER.
The Eugene Express COllides With a
Band Of Sheep at Turner Killing
80 llead-Worst on Record.

About noon, as the sOuth-bound
train was within u mile of Turner,
it ran into band of sheep, killing
aud wounding together about 100
head, and slightly injuring the ell
gineer, Joe Clark. The engine was
ditohed and turned upside down,
aud the tender was thrown across
the track, also two cattle cars and
two passenger coaches were

The engineer, Joe. Clark, sustain
ed severe cut above the eye, leav-
ing deep wound about four inches
in length. The wound was dressed
by DR.. j. w. Watt and DR.. j. {,
Smith, who were passengers on the
wrecked train.
The track presents horrible sight.
1t was torn up for distance
of three rails and the ground Is
covered with dead and bleeding
sheep to the number of 100 head
Eighty head were killed outright.
1t is one of the worst slaughters ever
before made by one train. The
sight is a sickening one. The band
consisted of 1000 head and was
owned by John West, of this city.
They had been driven long dis
tance yesterday and were seen on
the track by the engineer, he
whistled considerable to scare them
but being tired they refused to move
a step and the train went dashing
into them with the stated results.
The wreck caught fire but by prompt
work was extinguished before it
gained much headway. The acci-
dent will delay the train several hours

the track were brought back to the

sengers on South. A large force are
at work clearing away the wreck.
