Before the Greater Salem Charter
commission completed its labors, and
before it was known what the new city
limits were to be, there were persons
out with remonstrances. In South sa.
lem John Morlock and J. NJ. Pigler
were out gathering names OF remon.
strants on Saturday and 1t is pre-
sumed that a canvass Is being made
in various parts Of the suburbs. There
were many who would not sign until
the matter was more fully presented
TO them, although there are no doubt
persons who will fight any proposed
extension Of the city limits. no matter
how small.
The advocates OF the charter say
this Is not fair. and no one should sign
a remOnstrance until they at least
know what they are doing. a. the
Greater Salem Charter Commission
desire 70 make a full and complete
statement OF the proposed charter be-
fore II is condemned.

UNION

Notifies Contractors of Union
Scale

The condition OF trades unions at
Salem has become quite prosperous
the past year, and the indications are
that the propaganda OF organized la
Dor will be extended during the com.
ing year.
The unions are stronger than ever
before, and the price OF wages has in.
creased accordingly. There are good
prospects that all labor organizations
will make some aggressive demands
for recognition. and the first to act is
the Carpenters and Joiners' Union, OF
this city This union met and adopted
the following on Saturday evening:

old grand jury system. The present
law was a return TO the old star cham
Der proceedings OF the middle ages.
Judge Burnett defended the law al
lowing district attorneys 10 prosecute
on their own informations. Under the
old grand jury system the district at.
torney controlled the prosecution. and
escaped the responsibility for laggard
prosecutions and defeating justice. He
vas strongly in favor Of the present
system.
P. II. darcy replied to Judge Bur
netts argument in favor Of doing away
with the grand jury, on the ground
OF expense and eXpediting business.
He said 1t was demagogery to always
harp on expense. Expense was to be
considered. but. they, as attorneys. had
a right to try cases fully. and not be
rushed through court in unseemly
haste. II IL was necessary to consume
a week longer TO try a case. take the
time and give clients and witnesses
and counsel a chance to get at the
merits OF litigation.
Mr. Kaiser argued that the law put.
ting the power Of indictment into the
hands of the district attorney was
wrong in principle.
On show OF hands the association re.
fused to adjourn, and then Mr. McMa.
