Appreciated by Parents, School Teachers
and School Children.
No feature ever added to this paper
has attracted so much attention as
"THE YOUTHS DEPARTMENT" which
appeared in our DAILY and WEEKLY
editions.
1t has brought out the universal
comment that literature for the young
people has been too much neglected
by the general newspapers. We have
left the generation of American citis
zens who are in knickerbockers and
short dresses entirely to the flash
publications sold by the newsdealers,
or the other extreme of books and
papers Of the Sunday schools.
Such department as the one re-
ferred to, published as a regular
feature for our daily and weekly
readers cannot but prove profitable
and interesting to all our readers.
We believe in elevating and educating
the youth of our country through the
public press. 10 If

amount Of cement sidewalk about his
various business houses and residences
of any other man in Salem. In all
4S1 feet of cement sidewalk surrounds
Mr.. Anderson's property.
The cement sidewalk fever has evil
IDENTIFY struck Salem property owners.
During the past year Mr.. A. Bush has
laid 12-foot cement walk about the
the Willamette hotel, adding greatly
to the appearance of one of the hand
somest business blocks in the city.
Several hundred feet has also been
laid along our principal business
streets, exclusive Of what has been
laid about residence property.
Now, the county court has awarded
a contract for the construction of a
sidewalk about the court house square,
also from each corner to the east or
west steps, respectively. Although
apparently rather expensive, a cement
sidewalk proves in the end to be an
economical expenditure.
All the dead trees about the court
house should be removed, and possibly
some OF the live ones. At least the
greatest care should be exercised not
to have the new cement walk now be-
ing built destroyed in the next decade
by the upheaval OF the roots of the
two rows of trees about the square.
The truth is, Salem ought to have
sidewalk crusade this spring. We
have too many poor walks and not
enough good ones. Salem has been
fortunate in not having any damage
cases in the past, but with the present
condition of many old walks we can
look for that kind of luxury almost
any day.
G. Il. Wait, cousin of II. b. Wait,
OF this city, is having ground broke
for the building Of a dwelling house
ON Twentieth street, one block south
OF asylum avenue. Mr.. Wait is a
prosperous farmer and has resided for
several years near Zena.
Coy. VIM. p. Lord has been making
few substantial improvements about
his residence property in South Salem.
Besides repairing the fence several
beautiful arbOrs have been formed.
Mr.. @. Marsh has recently placed a
brick foundation beneath his residence
on South High street besides making
other Improvements about his home.
Mr.. John Hughes has had a force
OF men working on South High street
for ten days at his own expense and
the work accomplished will be greatly
appreciated by teamsters who travel
on that thoroughfare. The street has
been widened and a gutter provided
Tor drainage. Heretofore the road
was very narrow, hardly room enough
Tor one team at time.

The Ruth and Albany had another
race on the lower Willamette this
morning. Both boats left Portland
together, but the Ruth reached the
locks In advance OF the Albany.
The river registered l7.5 feet this
morning indicating a fall Of 9 inches
since Wednesday. The river did not
reach II sufficient high stage TO cause
the locks TO be closed. The recent
rain occurred all south Of Salem and
did not effect the stage of Yamhill
river at all. Had IL ralned north Of
Salem as IL did here, the locks would
no doubt have been obliged TO close.
The Albany left ahead OF time this
morning with a big passenger list
from Corvallis aud Albany, and
crowded with freight, most Of which
consisted OF 900 head OF mutton sheep
being shipped from Corvallis 20 Port
land market. They will be taken of

locks To Portland, thus saving 10
cents head. Albany Democrat.
