A Shot From the Arrow

The Daily ArdmOreite asks: If
Wynnewood can afford an all night
electric light system, will some one
quick at figures explain why Ard
more can't?" That's easy to an
swer, brother. Wynnewood's busi-
ness men have faith in their town
There are no back numbers among
them. They are fixtures in the
town and expect to remain there,
hence they do not object to putting
some of their earnings into public
improvements and up-to-date con
veniences. On the other hand,
perhaps your business men act
on the principle of get all you car
and keep all you get. ''-Tahlequal
Arrow.
Thanks, Mr.. Arrow. for you
answer. In part you may be hit
ting close to the mark, but not OF

smallpox Among Indians.

Guthrie, o. T., Jan. 16.-The
city of Stroud, o. T., which has
been under strict quarantine be-
cause O. the smallpox, will have
the quarantine raised on all freight
and express matter tomorrow. DIR.
Buxton, president of the territorial
board of health irsaid today that it
would be done.
For several weeks both Chandler
and Stroud have had several cases
of smallpox, a few deaths resulting
from the dread disease. Smallpox
in its most malignant form is rag
ing among the Indians of the
Greek nation. There seems to be
no law whereby the Indians can be
quarantined. The national govern
ment has been appealed to in the
hope of confning and stamping out
the scourge. DIR. Buxton will leave
here tomorrow for Stroud and if he
can arrange for the strict quaran
tines on the few individual cases
now existing there, he will raise
the quarantine of passenger traffic.
THIS measure is taken on account
of business with the outside world
which has practically been sus
pended.

THURSDAYS RECEPTION
To the Second Oregon Will Be All
Right.
Boys Will BE Fed Some and Lionized
Good Deal.

The arrangements for the reception Of
the Second Oregon are progressing in a
very satisfactory manner, gnd the boys
will be welcomed and lunched during
their short stay here, and made to feel
that the people Of Salem are glad to do
them honor.
Messrs. Claud Catch and r. G. Smith
have general supervision of the arrange
ments, and Mrs. Moore, wife Of Asso-
ciate Justice +. A. Moore, will have
cha ;ge Of the refreshment tables which
are TO be spread in the corridors Of the
lower floor Of the capitol building.
The tables are being put in by Joe
Fones and A. w. Dennis, and accom-
modations for about 700 men will be
provided
contributions Of all sorts Of eatable
delicacies are solicited, and flowers and
decorations will also find q warm well
come at the hands OF the committee.
Room 10, on the lower floor Of the capi-
tol has been set apart for the reception
of contributions, and either Mrs. Moore
or Frank Dayey will be there TO receive
them.
w. A.. Moores is out collecting the
funds TO defray the expenses Of the re-
ception. 1t is not expected that more
than half the fund raised will be used
and in any case only such percentage OF
the subscribed amounts will be collected
as may lie necessary TO pay the bills.
The Albany company will stop al
Albany and the Oregon City members
of that company will stop off with them
and on next day all Of Co. |, will &C
down TO Oregon City. So that l. Co.
will get two receptions, but not many
Of them will be at Salem.
Let rs all turn out and do our best tC
impress the boys with the fact that We
fully appreciate the glorious record they
haye made for themselves and theii
state. We Oregonians are inclined tC
be somewhat sluggish and conservative
or at least slow 10 enthuse. Let u,
shake off our lethargy once and give TN,
boys n rousing reception; make som,
noise and leave no doubt in the mind,
of any of the volunteers that the peopl,
at least appreciate their hcroism.

A Bicycle Spill.

There was a merry crowd at Sulphur
Springs last Sunday. People were there
from Albany, Salem, and Corvallis. The
greater part OF them rode wheels and
almost all the rest started from the
springs in body. At the head Of the
line of cyclists were two whcelmen with
their bikes coupled, as the rear man
had his chain broken and had to be
put in tow by his associate, A long
steep hill was reached which they had
TO descend. They started down this
and found TO their sorrow that no back
peddling could be done in their mutual
relations as the man ahead had 10 ped
die furiously to keep out Of the way OF
the wheel behind him. Down the hill
they flew clearing powders with wild
leaps and leaving the remainder of the
party in the dust. At the foot of the
hill the road made a sharp curve. On
reaching this the wheelmen dissolved
all mutual relations, ,one taking the rocks
and rose bushes ON the lower side OF
the road, and the other scorcher chose
the buck brush and fern on the opposite
side. Before they could gather them
selves together and remove the con-
Meeting rope from across the road, the
remainder OF the wheeling party tore
down upon them and from the explo-
sion Of dust that followed resulted a
general mixup OF wheels arms and legs
that would have puzzled an expert to
untangle.-Coryallis Gazette Union.

HITS ALCER TWICE.
Two Articles From New York Life on
Russell A. Alger.

At no time since General Alger be-
came Secretary OF War has Life dis
guised its conviction that he was an un-
suitable person to hold that office.
There were excelant and notorious rea-
sons why that place, of all places should
not go TO him, and many excellent rea-
sons have since appeared why he should
not continue 10 hold il. 1t is good
thing that he has at last been induced
to let go; good thing for the president
for the country, for the army, and prob
ably also for General Alger himself for
it was impossible that he should ever
make himself comfortable as secretary
OF war, and he might better be at work
on some new job that he has some
chance 10 do better in.
General Ayers ambition to shine in
public life seems a curious thing. lie is
said 10 be an amiable man, agreeable in
company, TO whom his friends and his
family are greatly attacked lie has
been exceedingly successful in business
and, so far as appears, he stands vel
with the people Of his own state But
| for years high political prelerment ha'
had great charms for him. He ha,
tried, with some success, TO be candi.
date for president. lie has been com.
mander OF the Grand Army Of the Re
public, and has seemed 10 feel that h,
Is entitled TO much bigger places thar
that il only he could get them. But ncith.
er political arts nor money has availed
! 10 crafty his aspirations. He has aimed
higher than he could reach, and goes out
Of the Cabinet rather pathetic figure.
No doubt he has been maligned. Ne
one man could have done as many bad
things rs he was accused OF doing be.
tween March and October OF last year
The real quarrel with him has been that
he forced himself into an Office that h,
was not tit 10 ill, aud administered il
| like a politician.
He wanted that particular office foI
| personal reasons, to yindicate some past
actions which marred his record. The
| whole arrangement was a selfish one, IN
which the public interests were not con
sidered. IL has damaged every one con.
cerned in il, the President. the Secre.
tary-all. For that we really ought "a
be thankful, for the precedent is salutary
and may do goood.
