Hearst is practically out of the
race, although he is still a great fac
tor. He may break the Democratic
state. He cannot make slate.
Carter Harrison has been sus-

out for him to break into the fold and
lead the flock.
He would make the strongest Dem
oeratic candidate, as Hearst would
make the weakest.
Having governed the second larg.

with the business interests.
Harrison will meet the demands of
the West, and, with a New York
Democrat for vice-president, would
make a strong ticket,
Look out for Harrison. Roosevelt
would beat him at the polls. but the
situation looks like Harrison on the
head of the ticket.

IMPROVE THE GOVERNMENT.

No one should become excited over
the financial report about the Salem
city government for the past six
years.
That report does not brand anyone
with dishonesty. 1t does show up
radical defects in the methods od
keeping and accounting for city
funds
That there have been neglects and
abuses in the past no one can sue
cessfully deny and no one should OBJ
ject to reformatIons.
That Recorder Judah of City Treas
urer Moir have been dishonest is not
claimed, and is not believed by any
one
But even they viii not pretend to
perfection in the discharge of their
official business, and should be glad
TO. have their books aud accounts
gone over by disinterested parties,
and corrected and approved.
Let us be fair and just in all these
matters, but remember that the Of
ficial is only the servant of the peo-
pie, and that there is no sanctity doth
hedge about any public oficial, or any
past methods of doing things.
In this spirit let us go forward and
make Salem the best governed city
In the Northwest, and there is still
room for Improvement.

So, of all things let the woman who

ure, overloaded with trimming would

Stunned for travelling wear.
Models for travelling hats, and in
fact for any outing occasion on which
hat is worn, as made by Burgesser
are far and away in the lead, and for
visiting the fair the roll brim sailor

popular shapes. Batavia cloth cover

with dainty white lace medallions set
in around the brim and in a circle

of these hats are worn with no ad-
ditional trimming than a rich velvet
band around the edge of the brim and
narrow kid band with two small
kid buckles around the crown. For
those who prefer a more ornate effect
in trimming, fanciful loops and soft
folds of Liberty ribbon are drawn
through an extremely stunning gilt
ornament in the center of hat front.
Altogether this is the ideal hat to
wear to the fair, considered from the
the suitable or the becom-
ing.
With such a hat, a natty walking
suit, and, an entirely comfortable cor
set is one of the important items in

a Bad Year for Strikes.


The new president of the Team
sters' Union, in Chicago, has an
nounced to his organization that this
is going to be bad year for strikes.
In his opinion there is just enough
Stacking of industry to indicate that
there will be few more men avail
able for places in case of a walk
out.
From an entirely different source
comes a remarkable affirmation OF
this same economic condition. A
year ago chorus girls were at pre-
MUM, receiving salaries heretofore
unrecorded, dressed in costumes
equaling in expense those worn by
the prima donna, and insisting in
certain personal liberties very dis
tracing to theatrical managers.
It will be remembered that the
Original" sextette from Florodora
proceeded to get married almost as
fast as it could be recruited, until one
dramatic publication in New York
gave a list of thirty-seven Original"
Florodora sextette girls who had gone
from that sextette to the altar.
The day of the costume opera made
the statuesque chorus girls almost as
necessary and nearly as high salaried
as the leading voices of the cast. But
to-day there is a stacking of the thea
tre-going; a decline in the market
value of musical comedies; conse-
quent Stacking in the demand of the
statuesque chorus girls. In conse-
quence this is going to be a bad
summer for chorus girl strikes.
In Philadelphia there has just been
produced ma entertainment of this
sort called "a China DOLL" Not only
has the manager been able to get a
complete corps of girls, but he has
been able to go on the road with the
chorus absolutely obeying the follow
ing rules:
Rule mo notes will be delivered
behind the stage.
Rule 2-Members of tn ecompany
will not receive flowers from out.
siders.
Rule 3-No "Johnnies" will be per
mitted to or from the theatre.
Rule 4-Members of the company
having friends will request them to
wait one block away from the stage
door.
Rule 5-No talking while waiting
for cues.
Rule 6-Fifteen dollars worth of
work will be expected from every one.
Rule 7-Profane language on the
part OF either sex will not be toler-
ated in this theatre.
Rule S-Ladies purchasing jewelry
must not have it sent C. o. d. to the
box office.
Rule s--Ladies Of the chorus must
avoid as far as possible any ostenta-
tious display OF wealth.
Rule 1O-A previous residence in
Philadelphia win not be accepted as
a valid excuse for a tardy appearance
at the theatre.
Rule 11-Any violation of the fore
going will be punished by instant dis.
missal without the usual two weeks
notice.

Colorado Prohibitionist.

tinue in business. "-Ex. Whose boys
shall they get?-Prohibition Search
light.
Our esteemed contemporary, Mrs.
e. NJ. vandevert, editress of the state
organ Of the Prohibition party, is a
most estimable Christian woman for
whom we have the highest. respect.
AS such we can only commend her
noble efforts for temperance and for
purity of society in general. If she
were a man and voter and a poll
tician, which she is not, we would
argue with her.
We would say, Vandevert, you are
making a mistake in supporting that
local option law Why? Because, un-
der local option there are bound to
be saloons, any way you fix it, both
licensed and unlicensed.
We claim there will be a great
many more unlicensed than now, and
that while the evil you complain of
will not be abated the community
will lose the license and lose all con-
troll of the business.
II the Prohibitionists who are sup.
porting local option could see that
they are making matters worse by
adopting that kind of law, they are
reasoning beings and would oppose 1t.
But under any circumstances there
will be saloons, both licensed and un.
licensed, under the local option law
Can you, or could you, Brother Van
devert. If you were a voter. take the
responsibility?
You would say that you would vote
for shutting them out at all times un-
der the local option law. But that
is the way you vote now anS yet you
say that license is treason and sa.
looms must have boys.
Can a Prohibitionist consistently
vote for any law that results in
licensed and unlicensed saloons? Sup
pose under local option there we're
twice as many saloons and only half
the revenue to the state?
Would that be a good thing? Would
treason be any less treason under
local option than under the present
laws? We are always determined to
be polite to a lady and we are not
asking these pointed questions OF
Mrs. Yandevert but they would be
asked by us If she were voter.
