out Salem unjustly and mailing this
city TO the wall
Few people know how extensive and
far-reaching has been the effect Of
the bad advertising Salem has re-
ceived, and few realize that It will
take years to overcome that bad
effect.
A Salem business man came home
from San Francisco the past week and
at every town on the road he was
asked II 1t was really so bad, and II
people were dying of like flies from
typhoid fever?
Now that several steps have been
taken TO vindicate the sanitary char
acter and reputation of this city, and
all give the lie to the state board of
health, has not that body the manli-
ness to undo the great wrong done?
It took a fair-minded Portland
newspaper mani. E. Lathrop, Of the
Portland Journal--to deal out justice
to Dr. Woods Hutchinson, when for
half an hour he roasted him with
ridicule at the state press reception.
The truth is, the press is more just
to all communities than any board or
commission can possibly be. II makes
its living from all the people and can
not afford TO treat any community
unfairly.

ART For TIE SCHOOLS.

Great credit is due to City Superin-
tendent Traver for conducting in our
public schools during the past week a
fine art exhibition, the first thing of
the kind ever undertaken in this city.

published by the Elson Co, of Boston
Is very we'll suited for school ex.

Next to seeing the originals, large

the originals of which are scattered
all over the world, and locked up in
private galleries.
The money made from the sale Of

the public schools Of Salem will be-
come the beginning Of an art gallery

And travel downward to the dust of

Our hope is in heroic men,

Recsnt Eruption of Crater Recalls

 Vcsuvius is the most celebrated volcano of the earth. It has been intermittentiy ir eruption since the beginning Of hu- man history, and has wrought more dam age than any other. There are no records preserved Of eruptions of Vesuvius prior to the terrible destruction of Hercula- neum and Pompeii, in 70 A. D. It is, however, known that 1t had long beGn the scene of volcanic disturbances.
 The mountain is frequently mentioned by old writers. and Diodorus Siculus sald it showed in his time many signs of having been burning in ancient tines" " Its most famous and disastrous eruptio:, broke the mountain into two cones, which stil exist. Subsequent to the destruction of Pompeii and Herculaneum there were many fatal lava flows. Some of those of which reco, ds have been preserved wer9 A. D., Na, 472. 512, 6S1, 993. 1049. 1isS ard 13OS.
 The eruptions of A. D. 472 and 1906 were the most notable. In the former year ashes from the crater were carried as far as Constantinople and across the sea of TripolI. In the last-named year the eruption was accompanied by terrible earthquakes. which destroyed many lives.
 From 1906 to 1851, the terrible mountain was quiet but her neighbor, Aetna, kept blazing sunward' at intervals. The Ve- suvian eruption of 1881 lasted three months and was accompanied by streams of lava and torrents of boiling water, which overfiowed the towns at the base of the mountain. Thousands of lives were lost.
 A number of other lava flows followed before 17O0. The eruptions increased in frequency in the eighteenth century. That of l772 was remarkable. It has been de- scribed as the grandest of all these phe- nomena. White smoke rose four times as high as the mountain and spread out approximately. Stones and ashes were thrown 10000 feet In the air. One of the rocks was 1OS feet in circumference.
 Another eruption in 1794 destroyed town and threw a great stream of lava estimated to contain 46,oO0,OO0 cubic feet
 The last century was busy one fol the volcano. It was in eruption nearly thirty times The years 1922, 1855, 1867 and 1872 were the most disastrous. It closed work for the century in 1895. The present eruption is second in the record of terror for the twentieth cen tury, the mountain having been last act | i've in 1900.

The Mechanical Operator.

Thomas A. Edison believes there is no work so mechanical as a telegraph oper- ator's. In an argument over this point with a couple of friends the other day, he told the following story:
 "One night when I was cub operator in Cincinnati, I noticed an immense crowd gathering in the street outside a newspaper office. l called the attention of the other operators to the crowd and We sent a messenger boy out to find the cause of the excitement. He returned in few minutes and shouted out:
 'Lincoln's shot!'
 'Instinctively the operators looked from one face to the other to see which man had received the news. All the faces were blank, and every man said he had not taken a word about the shooting. Look over your file said the boss to the man handling the press stuff. For q few moments we waited in suspense, and then the man held up a sheet of paper containing a short account of the attack on the President. The operator had worked so mechanically that he had han dled the news without the slightest knowledge of its significance"

The in- science of the invading soldiery and the hostility of the people brought an upris- ing, scattered firing, hurling of missiles from housetops. Some of the spirit of Zara goza was in their blood. Scott swept the strets with grape and canister and dispersed the people with the bayonet. People fled the city or crowded the churches to beg protection from the vir- gin. Released criminals added their out rages to the horrors. Night brought abatement of the struggle. but was dread full with the presence of criminals and the din of drunken soldiers.
 Early next day came a proclamation from the Town Council against further resistance. Scott threatened to level with the ground every building whence came missiles. Disturbance finally ceased.
 Fire did not devastate the city, as in Moscow, nor was there disastrous re- treat for our soldiers, nor paling of the star of their leader. But even the enthu- siasm begotten by the struggle did not prevent many of our people from re- garding this an uncalled-for and unjust war

AND THEY ARE HAPPY.

Some of our esteemed contemporaries, of the "only loyal Democrats" variety, are happy, they are joyful, they are exu- berant, they are ebullient. they are any old thing fellow is supposed to be when he feels good. It is all on account of Gen. eral Simon Bolivar Buckner, the man for whom thousands of Democrats voted, and with whose political sentiments millions were in full sympathy. General Buckner is TER-RA-ToR! He has departed from the faith, he has fell by de wayside, he has betrayed the Party. Not the election of Bryan, not the triumph of free coinage, not the total readoption of the Chicago and Kansas City platforms. not shower of larks. could give them so much joyful elation as does this lapse from party fealty of one who had stood high in the estimation of good Democrats.
 And some of these same esteemed con- temporaries want, to know what we are going to do about 1t? What is The Adver- tiser going to do about it? to get down to the point. We'll, The Advertiser isn't go- ing to do anything about it. We are not going to abuse the old general nor defend his course. We might retaliate by saying that there is little in modern Kentucky Democracy to bind men to 1t. but that would not excuse the General.
 If we admit that he Is the traitor his critics call him we remember that among the chosen twelve there was one who be- trayed the Savior but Christianity did not fail. We would remember that ,mong the brave patriots of the Revolution there was one who was loved and trusted and who deserted his country in the hour of her greatest need, but right triumphed and liberty was established. And so, If General Buckner in his extreme old age chooses to ally himself with the Repub. licans we will say: 'Erring brother, go in peace." Democracy will not perish good government will not vanish and right will prevail. Let the heather rage and the wicked rejoice:
 For right is right. since God Is God, And right the day must win
