JOURNAL ax.RAYs."

Morning Statesman: In response To
Statesman reporters inquiry re
garding the object OF the union In
putting forth a ticket, enc OF the
prime movers said: 1--WE think that
the city ought to be run in the inter
est of reform, goOd government and
lower taxation, and we are most en-
phatically IN favor Of some movement
being made to enforce the collection
of that part OF the citys money which
was on depositin the Williams & Eng
land Banking Co.'S bank at the time
it failed. There are many ways to
economic in the government of the
city and something in that line should
he &C mmenced very soon."
There are few men at work on the
streets. But il is like Mrs. Parting
ton sweeping back the ocean with
broom. One hundred men could be
employed.
OF course, 1t will be a downright
shame to elect Pop" city treasurer
who would make those fellows dig up
the citys cash and saYe interest on
$1,000 year.
They do say that when Rigdon was
iD the council under Mayor Catch he
gave Salem the best streets she ever
had, but then, he didn't run the city
"in the hole"
The negro minstrel joke the other
night, that Mckinley had gone blind
from the smoke and cinders of the
factories he had started up, was not
so bad when we consider those fellows
come from the South, where cotton
brings less than it ever did.
Our present street commissioner
gets $50 a month. He's trying to
keep up all the streets out of the poll
and road tax. He's great on economy
but not much on streets. Piles of old
barrels, lumber and loads of gravel lie
about for work and cause Chairman
PaIkhurst to inwardly say d-n.
Heaps of semi fluid mud are scraped
up but are not hauled off. They are
spread out again. Such is not econ.
omy. The streets should be kept
clean and should be kept up better.
We don't know as that's an issue in
city politics. But whoeYer consti-
tutes the next city council, they
should infuse in their street commits
sioncr a little more pride in the town.
Wheat is three cents higher IN Sa-
lem than in Albany. Who can say
Salem market is not as good as othe
valley points?

-Curzon Tells the Commons That the
Greeks Arc to Blame.
London, May SIThe Times prints the
following dispatch from Velsstino, via
Athens: THE expected battle began at
$3.50 Thursday morning at this point
and at Cynoscephalae, and a little later
above Avail and Pharsalcs. The posi-
tions were as follows: Velestino and
the main Cynoscephalae chain were
held by the Greeks. The plain to the
northward and the gray ridge jutting
out between the Cynoscephalae and
Velestino were held by the Turks. The
Greeks had three batteries of artillery
and the Turks four. Early in the morn
ing a well-directed Greek artillery fire
prevented the advance Of the Turkish
infantry. By 7:3O the artillery firing was
very heavy on both sides, but each
maintained its position. At 1890 a
Turkish battery behind Koniari began
firing shrapnell and the Greeks soon
began to lose ground. A hot artillery
and musketry fusillade was kept up
until about noon, when the Greeks on
tAC UiS NIL ~ FClIre u. OF
derly fashion, but at double quick. The
Turks were not firing at them and were
apparently ignorant Of their success.
Correspondents in a Hot Place.
THE irregulars tried in vain to as
sist the Greeks by firing at the advane-
ing Turks; and in fact throughout the
engagement they were practically
valueless. At 12:45 p. m. the Turks at
tackled the big hill with musketry and
shell fire. 1 and another correspondent
received a volley and five shells very
close to us, besides shrapnell whistling
overhead. Several shots reached the
road beyond, designed probably to prev
ent the Greeks from sending reinforce
ments to their left, where the Turks
were rapidly ascending the hill. The
Greek batteries on the right were now
useless and almost silent and the Turks
on the Larissa read made no attempt
to attack them. At 12:45 p. m. the at
tack on the right of the Cynoscephalae
became severe. The Greeks there were
in full retreat, the irregulars fleeing in
all directions. At o'clock the long
line of Greek infantry was retreating, the
skirmishers forming into companies and
then falling into single file.
Despair Fan Down the Line.
II hear that the retreat from the
Cynoscephalae began somewhat earlier
and the retreat from Pharsalos toward
Domekos earlier still. Despair was
doubtless running down the line from
left to right and influencing the result.
The railway was completely abandoned
and the Pyrouphli station deserted. At
3 O'Clock the Evzones retreated on
Akitsi, and the remainder of the east
ern infantry to Almyros. The Turks
burned the village of Deltitis. During
the morning the foreign legion entered
the engagements, probably between
Pharsalos and Aivzali. The Turks
seen to have driven back the Greeks
along the line extending from Pharsalos
to Avail, turning the flank of the
Velestino division at the Cynoscephalae
and rolling up the Greeks into two re-
treating Masses

Washingten's Recommendation.
New York, May s.-Chauncey g. NJ. De-
pew, In speaking Of the defeat by the
senate Of the arbitration treaty, re-
marked: 1T Is a great misfortune. The
treaty was long step toward insuring
peace Of the world. I was a pioneer in
its advocacy. Three years ago, when 1
delivered the address before the Bar as
sociation. favored the settlement Of in
ternationai differences by arbitration. I
urged making permanent treaties for
that purpose. beginning with one be-
tween the United States and Great Bri-
tain.
1T IS an interesting fact that a treaty
OF arbitration between Great Britain
and the United States was obtained by
Washington through Chief Justice Jay
100 years ago-in Ireland that it was
two years before the senate could be in
duced to ratify it. This defeat now aft
er 100 years-will, as then. be only tenn
porary."
