THE METHODIST CONFERENCE

The people are interested in a gem
eral way in the proceedings of the
Methodist conference at Los Angeles.
Some bodfes are largely taken up
with persons who have their own
axes to grind for personal matters or
some particular hobby.
The great work of the church is
done in the thousands of little com
munities where poorly paid preach
ers build up the moral and social life
of the masses.
A disposition is shown to avoid some
of the old controversial lines. such as
condemning the Catholic church as

THE INDIAN SCHOOL INvEsTI
CATION.

The inspectors sent out by the In
terror Department to examine into the
charges brought against supt. Potter
have completed their work.
The charges to begin with were
given out in the newspapers by some
redtape clerk in the Indian office at
Washington, and largely manufact
ured.
The Salem banks promptly denied
that they had filed charges Of any
irregularities whatever in the accounts
Of supt Potter
The Interior department promptly
wired the inspectors, disclaimng all
responsibility for those newspaper re-
ports containing the charges j"
Sunday the Oregonian had another
special from Washington saying
that a preliminary report had been
made by the inspectors finding crock
edness.
The inspectors promptly denied this
to the department, and enclosed the
Oregonian special to the depart
ment, repudiating it.
But no correction is ever made of
these charges" and alleged substan-
tation by the inspectors. They stand
against Potter.
Such are the necessities of the red
tape clerks at Washington and the
requirements Of modern journalism.
The truth OF the matter is that
Potter has already been exonerated
by the inspectors, who found not a
dollar misappropriated.
They found the fifty employees of
the institution perfectly loyal to Supt.
Potter, and the six hundred children
happy and contented
The only offense that Potter has
been guilty of has been allowing many
of the children to go home and help
their parents and to work and earn
money on the outside while carrying
them on the roles of the school.
The eastern Indian officials are
many of them pulling for Carlisle and
other schools, while Potter has work
ed hard to enroll as many as possible
at Chemawa
The Alaskan children can be kept
more cheaply at Salem, the climate
Is better for them, and they are near
er their homes. In the interests of
the taxpayer and of humanity. they
should be schooled here.
TIE removal of Potter on such
charges or pretexts would be the de-
of the Indian education
al work on this coast. 1t is to be de-
plored that newspapers will lead
themselves to striking down man
of the ability record and character
of T. w. Potter.

pie will just tell them plainly what is
expected of them.
That state tax must be reduced, and
the Republicans can and must do it,
as tthe legislature is bound to be Re.
publican anyway, and there is no 9th
err way but to tell them to get in and
drill. as we did in Marion county, and
it will be done.

the whole expense Of manipulating
candidates and making a party ticket
on the taxpayer is another such a
piece of political abortion.
A direct primary law that would
leave the voter all the political liber.
ty that he now has, and make as
plrants pay the bill for holding the
primary would be more rational
proposition.
But why should the unfortunate be.
ing in the foothills expect anything
rational or sane from Portland gen.

thankful to be permitted to live.

A SUGGESTION TO SALEM.

There are a few belated people who
seem to think a crime has been COM
mitted by adding grade to the Salem
schools.
sunless Salem adopts high school
methods and keeps a first-class man,
a broad-eauged man,and middIe-aeed
vigorous man, in as school superin-
tendent, her schools will retroerade.
"The pride of Eugene is her public
and high schools, and the people are
determined to keep them up to the
highest possible standard. Eugene
Register.
There are some good people
who still believe in working out their
own road tax in front of their own
land, when they have nothing else
particular to do.
OF course they cannot be expected
to understand the meaning of such an
expression as the above from the Eu-
gene paper.
Public pride and the fact that sta
tistics show that a high school edu-
cation multiplies the chances of sue
cess in life twenty-five times does not
enter into their calculations.
The mild suggestion is made to Sa-
lem that there have been too many of
the mossback variety on the school

THEY OPPOSED PRoeRoEss.

] School Director Fletcher is an ex
cellent gentleman and a good citizen
and he can get into no personal con
troversy with the editor of The Jour.
nal.
We believe at heart he favors pro.
gress in the Salem public schools, and
this paper has always been willing to
give him credit for all that he has done
to bring about better conditions.
The fact remains, as first stated in
The Journal, that the three Democrat
ic members of the board did attempt
to cut off the head of City Sdpt. Trav-
err because he Is known to be pro-
gressive man
The Republican members would not
consent to the retirement of City
Supt Traver whose only offense had
been a persistent effort to put Salem
schools up to the standard of other
American cities.
The three Democratic members Of
the school board did vote to cut out
everything above the ninth grade in
our public schools, in spite of the
fact that Fletcher admits that tenth
grade had been established without
increased expense.
The three Democratic members Of
the board did vote to not re-elect City
Supt Traver, and, unable to do that,
abolished city superintendent. by
making him serve as principal of the
East school.
Then, by some compromise, as Mr..
Fletcher admits, they reconsidered
the vote, and continued Mr.. Traver as
city superintendent Mr.. Fletcher has
given away some secrets of the board
with which we were not concerned.

SUSTAIN THE COUNTY coUR7

OO0 FNiN FlG SOONI wv I .
The Democrats are very sanguine
over the chances of electing their
candidate for county judge-to hear
the managers talk.
AS a matter of fact, many Demo.
Gratis and other people are quietly pre-
pairing to vote for Judge Scott and
Commissioner Needham.
For a county that has paid off SEQ,
600 to $4,000 debt in the past four
years, has reduced its tax levy each
year, and got a fine start towards
building permanent highways, the
people have no kick coming.
The court might be condemned for
not levying more county taxes for
roads, and yet they seemed to have
the foresight to anticipate a high state
tax levy, and have made it that much
easier for the people.
II othe Republicans in the last legis-
lature had done half as well as the
MarloW county court. the party would
be in much better shape to elect its
legislative ticket,
But the same work that has been
accomplished by the Republicans in

A delegation from Putney came 10
Brattleboro Monday to watch the
work Of their former townsman, Billy
Ayers,
Louis Allen, who has been covering
third base for Brattleboro this sea-
son. has signed with the Hinsdale, n.

his new contract tomorrow. Allen
has not played a very fast field

above the 400 mark.
Slattery Of North Adams. who
comes 10 Brattleboro to do the slab
work for the local team, has had all
sorts of offers from different leagues,
but prefers TO stay at home during
the week Therefore he is content TO
be a member Of the Brattleboro team
and the Bmttleboro fans are equally
content to have him.
. number of baseball enthusiasts
from Holyoke went TO New Bedford
Monday TO cheer Tommy Guiheen,
who Is batting his way to fame on the
Fall River team of the New England

present gait he is likely TO be given a

Boston Markets.


Boston, Mass, july o, lSvf
A review of the market this week is
attended with more than ordinary
difficulty as there have been practic-
ally three holidays in a row, Satur-
day being to the wholesale trade
holiday in midsummer. The general
trend of business is more encouraging
and a more hopeful feeling is in the
ascendancy. There is good reason TO
expect that the second half of 1914
will be better in business way than
the half Just closed. The large staples
which do much to control the business
situation are in more encouraging
condition. A decidedly better feel
ing exists in the iron trade though
buyers are yet very conservative. the
wool market is active and advancing
LJnfavorable foreign wheat reports
have toned UP the market in this
country.
The butter market is about as last
week. the quotations at New York ana
Chicago being fraction of cent
lower. The situation at present is
almost wholly in the hands of the
sneculators, New York's receipts con-
tinue to run very heavy. Boston re-
cefved last week 1859 1876 pounds
slight falling off from the previous
week. the amount in storage is about
| q. 600 packages less than year ago.
Boston is drawing less from the west
than some years, New England and
New York furnishing most of the sup
nlv. Mr.. Corr in the New York Prod
uce Review reports the jobbers as
kicking at the small profit in selling
butter to the grocers, in some in
stances it has been turned at as low
as a half cent per pound. Years ago
when was an officer of the milk pro-
ducers' union the going" advance
was two cents and the contractors al
lowed that in figuring the butter value
of the surplus milk. The fact that
many large retailers enter the market
as storers of June butter, buying in
large wholesale way is an added COM
plication.
Beef has continued the easier ten
dency which l reported last week and
prices are lower; but pork and pork
products continue to advance. Hogs
have been marked up in the local
market. other meats are unchanged.
Berries are plenty and cheap al
though the strawberry season is past
its prime. Southern apples are be-
ginning to appear and the season for
natives is about over.
Vegetables of all kinds are more
plenty which sends prices down but
there is no such glut in anything as
to cause any ruination breaks. Old
potatoes, however, are badly de-
pressed through the competition with
the new ones which are quite album
dant. H. M w.

Brattleboro took its place beside
Winchester at the head of the Chesh-
ire county league Monday morning
only to fall back a notch in the after
noon The morning game resulted IN
a victory for the Vermonters by a
score of 7-6 in a game that was eX-
tremely interesting in spite ,of several
balloon aseensions. Three runs We're
scored for the home team in the first
inning without hit being made. The
score stood 80 until the beginning
of the fifth when a bunch of errors
and some timely hits netted the visi-
tors five chalk marks. In the seventh
inning, however, Brattleboro got to-
gether and scored three times again,
which together with one that had been
made in the fifth made the result 10:
Slattery pitched an excellent game anu
was well supported by Aver. X.
Thompson and Hanley did excellent
battery work for Winchester Ferri-

Kurolzi to reach him.
Sir Chentung, with the prudence OF
his race, did not so much as smile, but
made the following contribution:
