PUSH THE CHARTER SUIT.

There should be no time lost in
bringing the charter suit TO trial. The
Greater Salem charter has nothing to
fear from the courts.
For the first time in the history Of
this city a charter was deliberately
prepared in the interest Of the whole
community.
The Greater Salem charter is not
drawn up in the interest of warrant
scalpers, corporations, or big real es.
tate holders.
Mr.. Pogue has been itching ever
since the charter was passed to get up
a lawsuit, and take it into the courts.
Several efforts have been made to
raise money to bring the suit to tie up
the charter, and knock it out, but all
fell through.
At last a nominal defendant has been
secured, and some one has put up the
money for Mr.. Pogue to begin the suit.
Without prejudice to Mr.. Pogue. let
the suit be brought to a trial. Let the
ease bc advanced on the docket. Let il
not be hung up for years,
Another thing, let there be no skull
duggcry permitted in the way of stip.
ulations in the interest of any rich
man.. Let rs have a square deal.
The time when one man or anv few
men could keep their hands on the
throttle, aud keep this community
down, is past. Salem will 90 forward.
The suburbs cannot have all the ben.
Gifts of belonging to this city, and es
cape all the obligations and burdens of
citizenship.

wayered in the straight way.

Yet without inspiration from the

sacred scriptures there is almost no

DOWNFALL OF PORT ARTHUR.

From the beginning Of the war with
Russia it has been apparent that Port
Arthur and N~ladivostock must fall in
10 the hands of the'Japanese.
With their navy supreme on the
Asiatie waters, there was no opportu,
nifty for the Russians to garrison these
ports properly.
The occupation Of Port Arthur by
the japanese is now an accomplished
fact-a fortress that Russia has spent
thirty million rouhles to build.
The failure Of the siberian railway
TO carry and army and provisions in.
To Nladivostock aud Port Arthur re.
ycals that Russia is weak on land also.
Rut the corruption of her govern.
ment, the triple oppression Of an arts.
tocracy, state church and military sys-
tenn, render Russia weak.
With the fall OF Port Arthur and
Nladivostock there is more prospect of
peace in the Far East.
Russia awakens with her supposed
i~mpreguablc strongholds at the mercy
OF the enemy.
Japan steps into the arena Of the
worlds great powers, aud the Orient
and the oceident awaken TO the posi-
bilities OF the little brown men.
