The flood of books on Japan seems to be without limit and more are on their way. Perhaps the most curious of them ali is a volume to be published shortly by Dodd, Mead & company, entitled, Japan, described by great writers and travellers. The idea is to present Japan as it appears to the various celebrated writers who have treated of it. In this volume, the people, the daily life, the customs, the. scenery, the buildings, art, etc.. are described and discussed by the best writers oh Japan; and the book for this reason should prove an inter- esting one.

The book is to be published by Dodd, Mead & company.

LEAVES
INDIAN
SCHOOL
Superintendent Potter Tend.
erS His Resignation
10 Department

Superintendent T. w. Potter, of the
Chemawa Indian school, has tendered
his resignation, to take effect when his
successor is appointed, and in the fu
ture will devote his time to looking at
ter his private business interests in
Washington and Oklahoma.
The people of Salem and the
patrons of the Indian school appreci-
ate the splendid work accomplished
for the school during the past MAE
years by Mr.. Potter, and they are sor
ry to lose him, not only as superin-
tendent of the school, but as a citizen.
He has been engaged in the work
among the Indians for the past Is
years, and is considered one of the
best men in the service. Owing to
some trouble with the department a
few months ago, an investigation was
ordered, but the Inspector report full
ly indicated the action of Mr.. Potter
in every respect, AMI his resignation
is not in any way connected with that
episode.
Early last spring Mr.. Potter cor
cluded to tender his resignation, Oh &C.
count of the press of private business,
~occasioned by the serious illness of
his partner in Washington, but about
the time the letter was prepared and
ready to be sent to the department,
the investigation was ordered, and he
could not well quit the service in dis
grace, all owing to the matter coming
up at that time.
The school, under his care, has in
creased wonderfully, and today is one
of the best in the United States, if
not at the top rank.
Mr.. Potter, in an interview with The
Journal this morning, said that he was
sorry to leave Salem and the school.
as his whole heart was in the institu.
ton, but it was absolutely necessary
for him to do so, in order to protect
his private interests.

OPPOSITIONISTS
TURNED DOWN

The few oppositionists to street
paving had their petition before the
meeting of Temple Camp No. l3] W.
0. W Tuesday night last for its ap-
proval but the proposition was turned
down cold.
Temple Camp Woodmen own some
60 feet in the district north of the
postoffice, and are anxious to see this
public improvement go through.
Strong speeches were made condemn
ing obstructive tactics and a resolu-
tion was adopted unanimously in favor
of the street paving and pledging the
advocates of the measure the hearty
cooperation of the Woodmen.
The Woodmen are very progress
i've lot and are always in for assisting
any public improvement.
The following resolution was adopt
ed:
WHEREAS, the splendid enterprise
n making a start in paying the bus
mess streets of Bessemer is now well
under way, and
WHEREAS, Temple Camp l31 W.
o. W. has been requested to sign a
remonstrance against such public i'm
provement, therefore be it
RESOLVED, that we positively de-
cline to become a party to such ret.
rogressive movement, but instead
hereby give to the paving project our
unqualified support and approval. and
that We condemn the action Of those

0BSTRUCTIONISTS
DYING HARD
Still Pursuing Their Worn-0ut
Tactics Of Hindering Street
Paving in Bessemer.

We're it not for the publicity given
the matter in an exaggerated manner
in the Bessemer department of the
Chieftain. the opposition to street
paving in Bessemer would not be heard
of.
The feeble attempt at making a de-
monstration went unnoticed by all
save the Chieftain reporter who evi
IDENTIFY thought be was treating the
public to something sensational, when,
in reality, it was but threshing over
old straw.
On the general principle that petit
tion can be gotten up to hang a man
the anti-public improvement petition
received the names of a few, princi-
pally of those who did not sign in the
first place.
The claim made by them that Bes-
semer is not ready for pavirg is sb-
surd. LET Bessemer build up frst,"
they will tell you, and then pave" !"
Wonder if that is what all the cities
do? Suppose we first get something
to induce the city to grow.
They talk about making connections
with the water mains in the street,
when, as a matter of fact, the con-
nections are made from the alleys and
not in the street
They talk of no provisions being
made for carrying off the surface
water, when if they would take the
trouble to read the specifications pre-
pared by the city engineer they would
discover that ample arrangements
haye been made by means of the 81
phon system of drainage SO effective
in many large places. But anything
for an excuse.
The time for protest has elapsed,
the city council IS tired of listening
to kicks and the obstructionists can
not get hearing before the courts
for the reason that they can find no
grounds for justifying a complaint.
Bessemer is doing very nicely
thank you, In the matter of getting
street paving, and is paying very little
heed to the antics of the obstruction
lists.

BEING CARRIED

TO THE PLANS
Evolution of the Steel Works From d
Quiet Place During the Shutdown
to a Scene of Activity.
Coke Makes the Blast Furnaces Go, and
the Blast furnaces Make the
Other Departments Go.

Things are not appreciably much
swifter at the steel works this week
and yet they are doing very well.
Asteady Improvement is seen every
where and that is pleasing.
II there was more coke there would
be more smoke Coke is the issue.
But Notwithstanding the lack Of
coke blast furnace C is running along
all right and doing its best to keep
out Of the way of the converter, and
in turn the converter is keeping out
Of the way of the rail mill.
1t was thought that the coke ovens
at Starkville would be having large
output by this time but not much has
come in as yet. Better results are
expected very soon.
In anticipation of sufficient sup.
ply of fuel, particularly of coke for
the blast furnaces, there will shortly
arrive few consignments of expert
euced furnace men from other steel
works centers and then there will be
another spurt at the local mills
All the departments are running,
The indicator., 1904-04-30

though most of them are not full.
The output of all will be increased
gradually, and it is the intention to
hold all the increase as they get it.
The number of men employed is
about $500, the same as last week
but additions will be made as tire
blast furnaces are put on one after
another.
Nothing particularly sensational
need be looked for at the steel works
for some time to come.
The resumption of operations has
been gradual. as promised in advance
by the management, and there is
satisfaction in knowing that things
are on basis of stability and are
being carried out successfully accord
ing TO well laid plans
Some of the employees, dissatisfied
with wages, principally, are shifting
about and seeking more remunerative
employment at something else, their
places being filled by others.
There are no real industrial troubles
at the steel works and as rule things
are moving along smoothly.
