A JOURNALISTIC BLUNDER.

the Salem Journal on various mat
tiers; that paper has more than once

count Of which was published q day

daily paper published over a column
Of morning news, In which IL was
stated that part Of the town had been
burned up; the rest was likely 10 be.
Men went wild, women tainted and

mountains, from sescOast, 10 defend
their homes, their property, their

supposed were ruins. They were

The Home CIub IIolds n Leading
League Nine Down Well.

Salems had good eyes for the
Seattle pitcher and two out Of three
bit, close work retiring them.
seattles scored one of errors before
the sphere was bit. In the second,
Salems advanced a notch farther
around the square, all hitting,
Seattles again retiring with a tally.
In the third Lavan's twO.bagger let
Collett to third before they retired.
They had two out wheE pyrotechnic
batting gave the 5eat,les two and
burst one Of Stanley's best fingers.
In the fourth, 5slems lost little
confidence. Reilly's pretty double
play gave Seattles their first goose
egg, amid great cheers. Saleni's
again failed TO score after ReiIly's
great kick, and the Sound youths
initiated their example. In the
sixth, Salems got the bases all COW
cred, hitting the ball right and left,
high pressure league playing alone
cutting them off without scoring
Big Sboeneck retired OH a great fly
to Salem's nerviest fielder, Jay
Smith, Irwin netting two bases on
errors. A few more cOstlIes geve
Seattles another scure. On the
lucky seventh usual luck attended
the Salenis. 70 even up, the first
Seattleite went out by Stanley's
active taking Of foul fly; the next
got LIST, but Leveque's swift throw
ing put him out twice before the
umpire conceded IT; third ditto.
Leveque's pitching on this inning
was phenomenon. The eighth
gave the visitors two, against the
home teams zero. The ninth cost
the Seattles a desperate effort to
shut our boys out, but they did it.
The score is as follows:

TIE FIGHT on RATES.
Manager KOehler Makes a Peculiar
Proposition to The Com
missi0n.

%he question Of new rates Is be-
fore the railroad commission. Mr..
KOehler asks for 40 days time to con-
slider the proposed tariff Of the COM
mission. He saysa Il serious reduction
in receipts will follow If this is
adopted, and that the company will
lose $250,000 the first year. He
threatens TO fight the commissions
proposed rates In the courts If neces-
sary. He IS willing to adopt the
commissioners reductions on wood,
lumber, vegetables, green fruit and
live stock provided the commission
will give the company its advanced
rates on merchandise. On the grain
tariff Mr.. Kohler asks forty days to
consider, at the end Of which the
crop would be we'll into market.
The fight before the commission
is great one and the interest Of
shippers is not looked after by anyone
excepting tie general desire Of the
commission 10 do the fair thing.
In other states when a battle Is on
in which the public Interests are in
yOlyed, almost invariably the gov
ernor directs the attorney general 10
appear for the state. 80 far neither
the governor nor the legal represen-
tatiye Of the people have taken any
hand In the matter.

NOTES.

1t was an exciting game from the
start-by far the most exciting yet
seen at the Fair Grounds park.
Leveque struck men out at several
critical stages of the game, when he
wished 10 real bad.
6alems made a better showing
every time they went in.
Leyeque gauged his antagonists
well after each Introductory effort.
After the first dash of excitement
every man played his level best.
Carriages and people lined three
sides of the park.
The gate receipts ran up to 5000.
The feature of the Salems' game
was Leveque's in-held work. He
was simply everywhere.
Booth held his position with great
credit to himself.
Very few hits were made by either
side. If anything Salens hit more
BALI than the Seattles.
The Salems should stop at moth
ing short Of the making Of league
club.
A JOURNAL reporter interviewed
the manager OF the Seattle team
and he said: "Your boys played
very well. All they are weak on is
their batting. The in-field was well
played, while the battery worked
very good. The errors they made
were all unfortunately costly, while
ours were not. The way to start a
league club Is TO sell bOOks-of season
tickets at $40 each aud In this way
raise fund Of about $1,000 capital 10
start In on. Then form a stock
company of about 5000. II takes
$500 To put up with the secretary as
forfeit money If they do not play
the season out. This money is
given back the last month. Salaries
would run up tO $500 a mouth, and
this out Of the gate money. Visit
ing clubs get 500 for the game, ex'
cept on holidays, when there is even
division. ! believe your town would
turn out and support league games
well. II was very dne lot Of peo-
pie. This is the only town we have
played outside Of league towns.
wanted 10 see your club, and must
say / am moFe than pleased all
around"

AT THE MILLS About thirty
mechanics are busy at the big Capt.
tol Mills. The old white mill is
being converted into a warehouse.
The big warehouse is being com
pletely overhauled and made ready
to handle immense quantities of
grain at great speed. The mills
proper have a force renovating the
old machinery and putting in some
new. All the steel rolls are being
taken apart and cleaned. A new
head gate has been put In and the
main gears in the wheel house are
being adjusted. A new bridge has
been built over the water ditch so
that farmers can drive in better.
The water ditch has been entirely
cleaned of weeds and pretty soon
the newly increased mountain
stream will send along a supply Of
water that will make the 3O0-horse-
power turbine spin. The JOURNAL
notes with pleasure how this inn
portant work is being pushed. 1t
will result in a grand addition to
the dinner pail brigade that will he
felt by all Salem.

has been verified by Mr.. Geo. G..
StaIey, who aided by hrs talents and
by hard aud conscientious work, has
firmly planted himselfOn one Of the
very upper rounds Of the ladder
which Is the special property Of as
pirants for honor In the realm Of
comedy. Mr.. Staley Is not an lmita-
tor OF Emmet. He claims his own
original aud peculiar style and
wishes to stand alone rather than
by comparison. His support Is an
unusually good one, and the play,
"a Royal Pass" is highly spoken
Of. A warm welcome should be exs

HOW TO BUILD GRAVEL SrREErs.
Outline Of Methods far Their Goa
strnetion. How 10 naye Dry
Streets all the Year.


Would-be Salem street builders
are all at sea. A few follow the
Boothby idea Of more mud streets.
The great majority Of citizens want
streets Of a more enduring and per
manent character. One thing Is
certain: the mud street with wooden
gutter II a style ~ architecture that
IL not Ia favor. There are proper
ways TO build such streets and the
JOURNAL has taken the trouble to
secure specifications and lay them
before its readers in plain English.
The continental method Of building
streets 10 such city as Salem, and
the only method that has the APP
proval Of centuries Of time and has
produced thousands Of miles Of dry
sLiooth streets and roads in actual
use, is as follows:
THE CoNTINENTAL METHOD.
Excavate the street two and one.
half feet deep, working one-half the
street at a time, curving the sub.
grade so that It would be a foot
higher I'm the center than at the
cutters, so that the water will run
each way from the center, in fact
flushed surface made two and one.
half feet below grade line. Then on
this place layer Of rock II to is
inches, with another layer Of to 8
inches broken rock, and another
layer OF larger gravel, finishing the
top with finer gravel. Then turn
all the traffic over this aud finish
the other side Of the street in the
same manner. Much Of the ma
terial now IN the streets could he
used. Two lines of drain tile should
be put down foot below the bottom
Of this pavement on each side.
This plan is all on the hypothesis
that grades are established to afford
sufficient drainage, with culyerts at
proper intervals to carry off all the
water that comes upon the street.
The curbs and cutters should be Of
flag or cement.
CITY ENGINEER's PLAN.
A reporter interviewed City En-
gineer McCaustland as TO how he
would construct a graded gravel
street. He outlines his specifca-
tions as follows:
1. There must be a minimum
gradient of not less than three-tenths
foot to the 100 feet.
2. Take out at least one foot below
grade established, leaving the sub
grade one foot higher in center.
3. Place drain tile one foot below
sub grade on each side under gutter
4. Construct strong curbing and
gutter of concrete aud cement.
5. Lay foundation of coarse gravel
two to four inches in diameter and
roll with heavy roller OF not less
than $50 lbs to running inch of
roller.
9. Then put on four inch course
of threefourths to one and one.half
inch gravel and roll that; then two
inch course Of fine gravel aud roll
again. Finish with one-half inch Of
sand and roll again, sweeping off all
surplus sand. All the gravel will
require to be sifted TO correspond
with specifications and no dirt or
Objectionable material allowed to be
used. This plan Mr.. McCaustland
believes would give Us dry clean
streets at moderate expense and
material all obtainable In and about
