JOURNAL "x-RAYs. /"

The Statesman is Informed now
and for all time that fax fibre is not
on the inside Of the stem. That is
the pith.
A West Salem woman, while bath
ing on the shaded beaches of the Will
lamette at that summer resort lost
her false teeth in tue river. Editor
Fletcher has been seen diving for
them a number of times and it is be-
lieved he has got away with the lady's
teeth. 1t is bad to rob the county as
the Statesman does, but to steal a
woman's teeth!
The goggle-eyed. low-browed,
freckled-faced, grinning reporter of
the Salem Statesman at Newport is
not crazy. 1t requires some intellect
to go crazy and he will never be af-
ficted.
1t is reported Senator Mcbride has
changed his residence from Columbia
county to Salem, so as to control the
postoffice at the Capital City. By sem
atorial courtesy, the appointment
goes to the senator where he resides.
-
The people will know all about the
conditions of the state treasury-after
Phil Metschan is dead.

A very pretty sight-a row OF
wagons at the mill selling wheat at
50 cents bushel.
-
Ohio has a political harvest on and
Mark Hanna is putting great deal
of money in circulation, besides what
crop harvests are bringing.
When the editor of The Statesman
was putting in any bills he pleased
as worlds fair secretary, he was not
so particular as to whether there was
any law or not. and the McElroy-
Pennoyer- Mcbride regime allowed
them.
THE JOURNAL item Monday saying
ninety-fve cars of fruit had been ship
ped from Salem was an error. That
should have read "from the state"
Salem has sent out about thirty cars.
We are the fruit Klondike of the
northwest.
The Klondike mosquito will Ger
tainly thrive for the next few years.
Eugene Register.
This Willamette valley is pretty
good Klondike itself. 1t is safe to eS-
innate $4,000, 900 for the wheat raised
here this year.-Albany Democrat.
Tilmon Ford figures that all Oregon
crops will bring the producer S29, ,4OO,-
600 cash in the market.
If five million dollars are put in cir
culation to get two million dellars
gold out of the Klondike, the world is
still two millions ahead.

Sherwood Burr, Eugene, Or, pre-.
sents wholesome object lesson about
"foreign" capital in following adyer-
tisement:
II have for sale several good farms,
which have been taken in foreclosure
by loan companies"
OF course; a fool Populist wouldn't
know any better than to publish how
much cash there was in the state
treasury at least semi-annually as the
law plainly requires the State Treas
urer to do The Populist treasurer of
Marion county voluntarily publishes
a financial statement once month.
If he were state treasurer he'd do the
same. But State Treasurer Metschan
is too wise a man to do snch reckless
thing as that. He believes in the
greatest secrecy in such matter as
the peoples cash.
