the outside world and whereas, in
constructing said line, they will ex-
pend thousands of dollars in build
ing said line, and furnishing work
for the laboring men while construct

A RELIGIOUS KITTEN "A few
days since-this is II fact--a littl,
fellow In this city, anxious to find I.
home for a pet kitten whereit would
stand right good chance Of being
well Brought up, carried it to the
residence of one our clergymen, ask.
ing him, as he responded to the
knock, if he would like u kitten.
"Oh, don't know" said he; "what
kind of a kitten have you g0t"'
"A Unitarian kitten, SIR" "No, j
guess not of that sort" A few
mornings after the little fellow ap-
peared at the same door, rang the
doOr-bell and again found himself
face to iace with the imam of the
house." The boy repeated his offer
of the juvenile feline. "But arn't
you the same boy that called the
other day; and isn't this the same
little Unitarian kitten you had
them" II know it," the little man
responded, ''it's the same kitten,
but he's got his eyes open now and
he's an Episcopal kitten" 1t is
fair to suppose that the "opening of
its eyes" proved the salvation of
pussy and found for it an agreeable
and congenial home.

A NARROW ESCAPE.-Last night
DIR. G. G. Curtis was returning to
Salem from the bedside of a sick
patient, he met with a very dam
gerous and costly accident on the
road about five miles east of this city
near the Swartz farm. There is a
very narrow bridge across a little
stream at the place where the acci-
dent occurred, and in passing over
1t, one of the horses slipped and fell
off to the bottom of the ditch, some
six feet below, dragging the other
horse with him. DR.. Curtis jumped
out and by some dextr;ous work
succeeded in keeping the buggy on
the bridge. Had the whiffie-trees
not have broken, buggy and all
would have went overheard, and
the doctor no doubt sustained ser.
ious injuries. AS it was both horses
are lame and several dollars will be
needed to repair broken harness and
buggy. There ought to be more at
tentiOn paid to these bridges and ev-
cry one of them have railing along
the sides to act as a guard. There
was q hole in this bridge that the
horse got his foot caught in, and in
and in trying to extricate it fell as
above stated. The county court
should investigate such matters US
this, and see that proper precaution
Is taken for the safety of the public.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS OR MUD.

MECADIMIZEDkST OR MUD.
Now as the Salem Board of Trade
is taking it in hand to have the
streets of our city and the county
roads leading to our city mecadimiz-
ed, every business man, property
owner, and farmer should consider
this question: "Shall we have me-
cadimized roads or mud?" and when
the proper time comes to answer this
question it will pay you to answer
in favor of good roads. 1t would be
u good plan to mecadimize a portion
If not all, of Commercial street, so
the people can see the great improve
ment that it will make. By mecad-
imizing we will have dry roads the
year round. 1t will be remembered
by many that ten or twelve years
ago a road was mecadimized from
Portland to n place called the White
House, about five miles from Port
land, and they have had a good dry
road ever since. Why can't Salem
have them? 1t costs but little in the
long run and we are surrounded by
plenty of rock that will be good for
this work.

PROSPECTS FOR A CREAMERY


Mr.. Perkins, an experienced cream
cry man from Russell, Kan, is in
the city for the purpose of starting a
creamery near Salem. He says by
the appearance of the grass in this
locality he is sure COVE would do
we'll and plenty of milk would be
obtainable. This industry will cost
about $4,000 and the milk from three
or four hundred cows could be used
from the start. A creamery is need
ed In this locality. At meeting of
the board of trade last night, Mr..
Wright made speech concerning
creamery butter and stated that
while he was up at the Sound coun-
try. creamery butter was used alto
gelher. and that they paid % and 23
cents per pound and it was shipped
from the East. Now if butter can
be shipped firm the East at % and
% cents per pound, can't it be
shipped from Oregon for the same
and good profit realized. Some
action will be taken in the matter
and no doubt the establishment Of a
first-class creamery In or near Salem
Is onIy Il question of a short tinie.
