"Allow me to tell you what pleasant
trip | had over your line. With a good
book and with the country that lies out
side the window panes to look at and the

thing that wonder the whole world
does not travel all the time.''

A Salem special Friday says;

A Salem special Friday says:
In all the discussion that has taken
place regarding the purity Of Salem
water, no mention has been made of
a recent test that was conducted to de-
termine whether there are leaks in the
iron pipe which passes under the
slough to the crib from which the
water is drawn.
The test was made about two weeks
ago. This was after the state board
Of health had taken its samples of
water for analysis. The crib is locat,
ed about 400 feet from the shore, and
under gravel bar. The water in the
slough, through which the pipe passes.
is far from being suitable for use, and
the test was made to ascertain wheth.
er any of this water gets into the pipe.
A committee. composed of Dr. e. A.
Pierce, DR.. w. B. Morse, City Recorder

Tuthill, of the chair OF chemistry at
Willamette University, made the test

was attached a rubber tube terminal.

When they passed back over the
course the dye stun had discolored all

ONLY AN oUTcAsT.
But May Some Day Be a Llbsrator Of
Humanity.


A pathetic incident occurred on the
streets Of Salem the other day that es-
capped the reporters. A little ragged
urchin, who may almost be said TO live
on the streets by day and night, was
run down by a heavy laden. truck. and
a sympathizing crowd stood around
waiting for the ambulance 10 carry the
little bruised body, all covered with
mud, to the hospital.
Who is he, who is he?" was asked
on all sides.
No one knew his father, but his
mother was referred to as an outcast
woman. There was general silence,
until an old Indian War Veteran spoke
up:
Don't say that of the poor little
fellow. He may some day be a useful
citizen. He might become a good sol.
dier. and fight for his country. Indeed,
who knows but that boy may be OF the
greatest service 10 humanity" There
was nothing more said. but the old
veterans rebuke was appreciated by
everyone present.

In Its Sixth Year.

The Jasper News has started out
on its sixth year. Since its first
issue Oh September s, 1898, it has
made its appearance every week
excepting one when it took a yaca.
tion during Christmas week
A good subscription list and
most liberal advertising patronage
is evidence that the paper has met
the approval of the community.
In view Of the fact Of the failures
of our predecessors in the Jasper
newspaper field the launching Of
the News was accom- anied by
much uncertainty as to its long
eyity, and this feeling had not en-
tirely disappeared until after the
first year had rolled around. From
that time onward the growth has
been gradual until now the paper
has pissed the experimental stage
and is now we'll established.
Since the first appearance of the
News jasper has made wonderful
progress and without a desire of
boasting We can say it has played
no small part toward bringing this
about.
While the News compares
favorably with the newspapers of
other towns, we IRE not satisfied to
stand still but hope to make it
better aud better us the years 60
