PUBLIC MEETING.-We undor-
stand that the mayor has called a
public meeting for Wednesday
evening at the council chamber to
formulate resolutions in regard to
the necessity for public building at
Salem. There should be large
attendance and Salem people should
act as unit in this matter. They
should also demand that their
chances of getting a public building
be not imperilled by yoking the
bill for this city up with another bill
for city so small that it stands not
the slightest show of passing.
