MAPPING OUT THE NEW WARDS.

There is an important duty. develop
ing upon the present city council
mapping out the lines to divide the
territory Of Greater Salem into wards.
The new territory will be added to
the city by virtue OF the charter on
october 1. 1903 and the ward lines
should be drawn before that time.
There are at present four lines, di.
vidlng the old city limits into as many
wards. and these lines are drawn east
and west from the river.
The bulk OF the territory of Greater
Salem has been added on the north
and south of the present city.
IT, the city council should fail to
draw the ward lines before the city
election on the first Monday In Decem.
ber. the city council would have 20
choose the aldermen for the new ter
ritory, as soon as the new territory
is divided into wards.
The council might even refuse TO
create new wards or elect new alder.
men, and the present council OF eight
men might for a time run all OF
Greater Salem. But there Is probably |
no such intention.
II is probable that at least one new
ward will be created on the north and
one on the south and possibly one for
Englewood and East Salem.
AS the aldermen serve gratis. there
is no harm In electing more good sub
stantlal citizens. who shall donate
their time TO the welfare OF the city.
There will be a great deal OF work
on the new parts of Greater Salem,
and this work cannot be well provided
for by the eight members OF the coun.
ell.
II ls not too early to take up this
matter Just as soon as the excitement
of the Salem carnival is over with.
Let Il be carefully considered from
the standpoint Of good business poll.
cies and give the new territory prop
or representation,
There should be no such thing as
gerrymandering Greater Salem In the
interests OF politics. II that were done
the wards could be so arranged that
the older parts of the city would con.
troll the election OF aldermen from all
the new territory.
This would be wrong. as the newer
parts of the city have their own prob.
lens TO work out. and must have their
own representation,
But the matter OF mapping out new
wards should not be Vet go by default.
Greater Salem should be fully organ.
ized by the next city election.

Master, who ruleth everything and
doeth what he thinks best, though
we sometimes think otherwise.
She bore her affection as patiently
as Joel of old. Withal she was
true and noble Christian, and had
been for many years. She leaned
and rested upon the promise of God
and when the Master blasted the
trumpet for her the last time she
answered, and now she has gone to
that blissful home which her Mas
ter has prepared for her and to re-
ceive that blessed reward our Re-
deemer has prepared for all who
will only believe and follow in His
footsteps, a home where troubles
never come. She leaves a loving
husband and two devoted children,
besides other relatives who loved
and cherished her, and who, with
care and anxiety, watched over her
in her last moments, and now she
has gone, they will only have to
wait patiently until they meet
again in that City of Gold. We ex-
tend to the bereaved ones our heart
felt sympathy.
