quest the chairman to appoint q
committee Of-who are instructed

AMONG THE ROLLING STONES
j. L. Mitchell, secretary Of the
board of trade, and Glare b. Irvine,
reporter on the Statesman, re-
turned yesterday afternoon from
a trip to Silver Greek falls, both
suffering somewhat from their ex-
perience, Mr.. Mitchell's ailment
being most apparent to the naked
eye. 1t seems they, with others,
had been exploring a cave at the
bottom of deep canyon, the abrupt
sides Of which they were climbing,
when the head man Of the group,
some forty feet in advance loosened
some rocks with his feet and they
went laundering down. One of
them struck Mr.. Irvine, making
him cringe with pain, and another
one weighing several pounds
caught Mr.. Mitchell on the side of
the head back of the forehead,
cutting "A deep cash and almost
hurting him down the yawning
gulch-indeed, he thinks he would
have fallen if he had not been caught
by companions and assisted up the
hill. The party drove home as soon
as possible and Mr.. NJ. had very
sore head, hut a physician dressed it,
took few stitches in it and ne says
he will be as good as ever in a short
time.

THE SUNDAY QUESTION.
The Resolutions Which We're Net
Acted Upon at the Big Meeting in
the Opera House.

Salem, July %.
EDITOR JoURNAL: In the report
of the Sunday mass meeting the
resolutions which / offered do not
appear. They are in full accord
with an editorial IN the JOURNAL of
the Goth, which l had not at the
time seen, or feeling that had edi-
torial endorsement l might have
pressed them still more earnestly.
Had they been put TO vote, as l an-
ticipated they would be, they would
have received q large vote. 1t
seems to me that for the public
good they appear in the JOURNAL.
In my haste to prepare them 1
omitted an important thought
which i hope you will allow me to
express here, and that is--the need
of Saturday half holiday and Of
an early hour of closinl Of our bus
iness houses. SaleLl, il not yet
large enough for this, is fast growing
to be 80. Sunday being the only
day of rest, to large portion of la
borers, is in consequence, too full of
demands of body, mind and spirit,
and some duties must be neglected.
More leisure will result in greater
observance of Sunday, in increased
morality and intelligence. Such is
the experience wherever tried.
In presenting the subjoined reso-
lutions, offered when the business
men of Salem would pledge the
necessary funds) to see that on one
half the Sunday afternoons of the
coming year there should be in the
opera house an illustrated lecture on
science, history, biography, etc, and
that if no one was ready to take the
task Of filling the other Sundays ]
would also see that they were filled.
l am ready to fulfil my promise.
Truly yours, H. II. BROWN.

GOOD For EVIL. When the
supervisor of the census sent out
his "estimate" of population for
Salem among other points, the
Oregonian took pains 10 coldly
and cuttingly make the fact promi-
nent that Salem's population failed
to reach anywhere near what had
been claimed. But now the "offi-
cial count" is out for Portland, CIV
ing that metropolis less than $4,000,
whereupOn there is sore wailing and
gnashing of teeth. And there is
good cause for it. Any small school
boy would know from half days OBJ
servation that there are many thou
sand more people in Portland than
that, and the same is just as prom
inenlly true of Salem. But in the
light of their behavior toward US a
few weeks ago, there is great temp
tation to laugh AT Portland fellows
over their census returns,

THAT'S A STABLE So many per-
sons have been heard to ask during

ing is which is going up on the

information for all. 1t is intended
for feed and sale stable, where

A BAD Willie, the 1l-year
old son Of Architect G. A. Robert,
at the corner of Oak and Summer
streets, Albert's addition, met with
a painfnl accident this morning
about 9 o'clock, which will leave
him a very sore head FOR some
weeks, but still was fortunate one
in that 1t did not result more seri-
ously. He was climbing an oak
tree north of the creek a short dis
tance from home, and had reached
the upper branches, Is feet or more
from the ground when by some
misstep he lost his balance and fell,
bounding on lower limbs as he went
down and finally striking on
the small rocks and gravel squaIely
on top of his head. He was terribly
dazed but rose to his feet and walked
to the house with his little brother,
who was near by. The blood was
flowing down his head and face and
he could scarcely get his breath when
he reached home. Mrs. Robert was
greatly shocked and frightened, but
hurriedly sent for physicis n, who
was present in few moments and
found upon examination semicir-
cular scalp wound between two and
three inches long, on top OF the head
right over the ears. 1t is cut to the
bone and the bene is somewhat
pressed inward, though not frac-
tured. The wound was properly
dressed, and by keeping the little
fellow quiet he will be all right in a
week or so.

SMALL FIRE.-At t five o'clock last
evening the fire bell rang again, to
which the department responded
with usual alacrity. The blaze was
in the back end of Chinese store
and lodging house, 1872 State street,
which had caught from a stoveplpe
and would have done considerable
damage but for the prompt work of
tie fire companies. AS it is, the
building is badly wrecked, but there
Is little regret for this even from the
owner, Chas, b. MoOres, who was
heard to remark that IL would be- a
good thing II that Chinese row were
all burned out. The laundry situat-
ed east of 1t received a good wettlng,
as of course did everything in the
burning structure. The loss is not
very heavy.

The RIGHT MAN.-Intellige nee
of local interest in Salem was con-
tanned in yesterdays Oregonian, to
the effect that John w. Mimic, a
native of this city, for several years
q policeman and chief of police here,
two years deputy sheriff and four
years sheriff of this county, is soon
to become chief of police in Portland
Mr.. s. b. Parrish, the present chief
and former Salem man, being
about to enter the office of Collector
Of Customs Earhart as weigher and
guager Mr.. Minto's many friends
here would like to see him in the
position, believing that he is by all
odds the best man in the state for
such place. He is incorruptible,
he does not know what fear is in
any sense of the term, has a
thorough knowledge Of criminals
and is true as the needle to the
pole. One very distinct trait of his
character is prominent in the news
item in relation to his probable APP
pointment. 1t is stated that he was
recently asked by the police COM
missioners If he would accept the
appointment and he replied that he
would If he could obtain 1t unen.
numbered. In other words, John
w. Mimic won't wear anybody's
collar in a public position. But if
the powers of Portland desire a
clean, manly, efficient police force,
they can have it and be proud of it
under the ex-sheriff of Marion
county as chief.

Those who suffer from disorder or inac
