BY conference with the mayor of
this city and the president of the Com
mereial Club, Salem saloons have closed
on Sunday for some time.
The editor of this paper, who is pres
ident of the Commercial Club, is be-
ing misrepresented by persons who cali
themselves good people for having done
this.
Misrepresentation never yet accom-
plished the downfall Of a good cause,
and substitution of good business tao
tics for litigation and prosecution
Opght to be commended.
So far as The journal is able to
learn, the saloon men have kept the
Sunday agreement to the letter and in
good faith. Their employees favor Sun.
day closing, and many of the saloon
men themselves favor it.
Salem Sunday closing was never ac-
complished in this city before, and all
who believe in keeping Sunday should
uphold what has been done, instead of
abusing the men who did it.
A good act done by saloon keeper is
just as good as by anyone else, and he
is entitled to just as much credit. Let
us all be fair-minded as we can, and
~'give the devil his due"

sumed and borne by the Sentry Box
Bureau. Editors can and do express
their dissent from some OF the posi-
tions assumed, but the independence
believed, help commend them to intel
ligent readers, whether they fully
agree with the positions taken or not.
Newspapers are, of course, entirely
free to publish the Sentry Box articles
or not, as they choose; but if published,
they must be in the exact form submit
ted, in order that the bureau may not
be made responsible for something it
did not send out. All the expenses of
the bureau are borne, for the present at
least, by the promoter, and its utter
ances will be entitled to such consider
alton as may fairly attach to entire
ly disinterested presentations of mat
ters discussed. Their intrinsic import
ance, their literary merit, or their per-
manent value, may at times be ques-
toned, but the absolute unselfshness
of the motive which inspires them will
soon be manifest to a discriminating
public, even though at first sometimes
doubted.
A sufficient amount of success has al
ready marked the enterprise to warrant
a belief in its practicability. Many
strong newspapers have cordially well
coined it, and the responses from their
readers direct 10 headquarters Of the
bureau, in approval of its methods,
have been most flattering. It's first
suggestions have aroused widespread
comment among the leading city dailies
and best magazines. It's suggestions
have already taken form in federal leg
islation. The formation of the Bureau
is deliberate, well-considered act. The
encouragement received is already suf-
fcient to warrant broadening its scope
and making permanent it's foundation.
There will be no holding back or hesi-
tation in approaching the legitimate
objects of its establishment and diff
fusing its benefits as widely as they
may be found acceptable to the press
and the people.

HOW COPPER KILLS BAc1LL1
From Gilbert II. Grosvenor "The
New Method of Purifying Water"
Ia 4ba nnoan,har Canturv

From Gilbert II. Grosvenor's "ThC
New Method of Purifying Water"'
in the December Century.
Man would seem to have at last
discovered an effective weapon against
typhoid fever, Asiatic cholera and sim
liar merciless scourges which invade
our intestinal and digestive organs
through polluted water. 1t is yet too
soon to declare positively that we shall
exterminate these dread diseases, but
we have good reason to believe that
we shall be able to drive them out of
cities and towns, and camps and pris-
ons, and wherever men are living herd
ed close together. The weapon is not
of steel or iron, but copper, the most
convenient form being the compound
of copper and sulphur known as blue
vitrol copper sulphate. Every school
labratory contains some beautiful blue
crystal of copper sulphate. Every
schoolboy for generations has dabbled
with these blue crystals or has watched
his teacher use them for ordinary class
room experiments. And yet who would
have imagined that pinch of these
CRYSTALS dissolved in the water-tank In
the attic, or in the cistern or well, would
kill any typhoid germs that might be
lurking there; that its use would in
sure healthful drinking water in a
military camp; that it would extermin-
ate malaria nd-yellow-fever-carrying
mosquitoes in stagnant pools and
swamps by destroying the vegetable or
ganisms on which the mosquito larvae
feed; that it would in few hours,
make the water of an evil-smelling and
foul-looking city reservoir, containing
billions of gallons of water, clean and
sweet; and that the amount of copper
that aceomplishes all this is so small
that while it kills the bacteria in the
water 1t does not make the drinking
water poisonous or injurious to the hu-
man system.
1t has been known for a long time
that copper destroys bacteria, but the
metal has not been much used hereto
fore for the purpose, because scientists
have generally believed that the dose
required 10 kill the bacteria must be
very coneentrated-so concentrated in
fact, that II would poison the water or
substance containing the bacteria and
make the cure worse than the evil. A
specialist Of the United States Gov,
ernment, DIR. George T, Moore, has now
come forward and announced, with the
authority of the government behind
him, that he has discovered how TO get
the good effect of copper without any
dangerous result; that he has a way of
using copper 50 diluted that il cannot
hurt baby and yet so active that it
will destroy virulent cholera aud ty-
phoid bacilli in four or five hours.

OBJECTS OF THE SENTRY BOX.


In this age, apparently given over to
selfshness, it seems hard to make peo-
pie accept the possibility of purely
unselfsh and public spirited motive
which can inspire any course of action.
This feeling of incredulity exists in
spite of the illustrations visible CON
stantly all around us, that we live in a
period of great benevolence, great phi
lanthropy and great displays of inteli-
gent interest in public affairs.
At no time previous have so many
wealthy men devoted liberal shares of
their accumulations to various enter
prises, which in their opinion, conduce
to the public welfare. Many million
aires have endowed colleges with Law
ish sums Others have built hospitals
where human suffering may be mitigat-
ed One at least has gained wide ap-
.proyal by an unprecedented generosity
in founding libraries in many of the
principal cities and towns of the coun-
try.
Now, in view of these benefactions,
it is certainly supposable case that
man of large means and of practical
ideas, seeing much in the workings of
government machinery that needs regu-
lating, and having faith in the people,
may adopt some promising method of
working needed reforms, having faith
that if the people are advised as to the
defects now existing they will unite
regardless of party, in demanding rem
edies. Such being the case is there
anything unnatural in desire on his
part 10 inaugurate plan for collecting
and spreading information on these
subjectsl
There are also social and economic
questions of vast Importance TO the
country, concerning which facts and il
lustrations-not dry statistics or de-
tailed arguments-may be intelligent
ly disseminated with great benefit.
Precisely the same condition stated
in this supposable case has led to the
establishment of 'The Sentry Box" in
Washington, with objects held by its
promoter and his associates to fully
Justify its existence. The name was
suggested by the idea that a sentry
stands Mt the gateway to report TO the
people at large inside facts as to ques-
tions and movements of the day.
Its purpose is to discuss some pub
lie questions from an impartial and
non-partisan standpoint. incidentally,
IL aims TO convey interesting informa-
tion as to the workings of different
branches of the government and on
matetrs of Importance at the national
capital, Short articles are prepared for
publication in the press, conveying val
uable hints as TO admitted defects and
abuses which should be remedied.
The people of the country are the
employers of public servants. This
fact is sometimes forgotten by such
servants and needs to be called oe-
casionally TO their recollection. IL is
the purpose of "The Sentry" TO ad'
wise the employers concerning the
management of affairs by their serv'
ants and 10 comment thereon when
necessary.
Various interesting subjects win be
discussed, carrying out the true sentry
spirit of absolute freedom and fair
ness. The comments may be so fear
less as at times 10 conflict somewhat

1.ApoR,s sENsIRLE COURSE.

The Federation Of Labor in session at
San Francisco acted with wisdom
when they turned down the socialistic
plan of giving a pension to every per.
son who had reached tho age of go
years, and had received during his
lifetime wage roll of less than $1,000
year.
Legislation Of this character is pater-
nalism, pure and simple. It places the
common, everyday citizen in the role
OF pauper, and leaves him dependent
ON the government lie forgets his in.
dividuality, aud relies on the world at
large for his living. II would make the
average man tramp, kill his ambition
aud throttle enterprise.
The idea that is uppermost in the
minds Of the authors is centainly not TO
benefit humanity, hut to ride into pow.
er and influence on a hobby. Men who
introduce and conceive such proposed
legislation do it for the purpose of at.
tracting atotntion, aud not to have
their foolish athletes enacted into
laws.
The federation also showed it's good
sense by voting down the resolution
condemning the militia. The citizen
soldiery have proved valuable in time
of peace and war, aud no sane and pa
triotic American eau discredit their
acts
True the soldiers have been used to
suppress lawlessness, and in some eases
Wsongmlly used against strikers, but
the great principles Of free country
could not well be maintained without
militia or large standing army, and
the former is more preferable.
Labor men throughout the country
are members OF the militia, and they
resent the agitation started by a few
sand lot leaders, who pose as the true
representatives Of the working classes.
