SUPERVISORS AND THE RoAps

wednesday was "road day" for
the Supervisors of Lancaster. The
new Edmondson Road Law was dis
cussed, and, counseled by the Attor-
ney- for the Commonwealth, the
Board was. satisfied that the new law
did not apply to Lancaster county.
The new law is only applicable in
counties having no special road law.
or in such of its provisions as may not
conflict with special Acts. Conse-
quently, the Board concluded we
could not have county superinten-
dent under the new law, and that
they would proceed very much as
heretofore. Mantua and White
Stone Supervisors decided to put
their roads under management
similar to that in White Chapel.

Maryland Oyster Bill Vetoed,

There will be no leasing of the
Chesapeake Bay oyster bottom for
two years at least. The oystermen
OF the Eastern Shore and the other
tidewater counties will now rejoice,
as the Governor of Maryland has
refused to sign the Haman OYSTER
bill, providing for the leasing of the
beds by the State. The bill had
been so amended as to practically
make it useless, aud has met the same
fate aa similar measures introduced
In previous Legislatures.

O G HAVE

The Journal receives many friendly
expressions of interest in it's misfor
tune, for having a libel suit on ii:
hands for having taken up for a
friendless dog against a public official
A number of persons have driven
long distances to express their friend
ship and say they are willing to help
us pay for that dog or whatever the
court and jury say should be paid for.
A number of persons have brought
in press clippings from other newspa.
pers about dogs and officials and libel
suits, and what not, some being funny
and others serious.
1t all goes to show that the poorest
dog or even a newspaper as small as
the one cent daily may have friends.
Daily capital journal. (Salem, Oregon) 1903-1919, 1904-09-05

Moral: Don't kick a dog because ne
appears to be friendless and is small
AS a matter of fact, The Journa
had not the slightest idea that it had
ever done an injury to so good and
pure a man as the Salem Chief OF 20
lice.
He is a man and an official with
whom it had always had the most
friendly relations, and when people
bring us clippings about the troubles
of dog.catchers we reprint them out
of sympathy.
1t is the m%eanest, most Improbable
and disagreeable part of a police Off
calls duty-the impoundipg and re-
straining of domestic animals.
But the best will make mistakes
and the purest officer under the sun
will go wrong on some little thing
like kicking a homeless and %friendless
dog, while he might be perfect in
every other respect.

AFTER MANY FEARS

The fishway over the Willamette
Falls at Oregon City is now completed
and the fall run of salmon can enter
the upper Willamette and its tributar-
les, among them the Pudding and
Molalla rivers. What effect the new
fshway will have remains to be seen
and may prove highly beneficial. There
are twelve pools in the way situated
about three feet apart one above the
other. They are for the most part
blasted out of the solid rock and
others have concrete walls, making the
ishway indestructible. For nee the
state appropriation proved sufficient,
and the fshway was built at the cost
of $4,000 as estimated. There is a law
prohibiting all fishing whiting 900 feet
of the ishway.

THE PEOPLE LOVE A SHOW.

No one could look at the thousand
who stood on the streets and watched
the circus parade at Salem the othel

that the American people are a show
going people.
About 700 people went on the ex'

Ringing circus, part with the money
earned by hard labor, and enjoy do
ing so.
At Eugene, las country people
came in over one wagon road between
the hours of $3.50 and IL a. M, and
many must have come earlier to see
the circus unloaded off the cars.
In Lane county people drove fifty
to seventy-fve miles to attend. By
rail people went wei 100 miles. All
this argues that the Lewis and Clark
Fair at Portland will draw hundreds
of thousands of people.
If that is any kind of a show at all
there is no reason why it will not be
immensely profitable to the state and
to the city of Portland. Of course, it
can be hurt by mismanagement but
probably will not be.

CRUEL PUBLICITY INExcusABLE

IL
The past week a young man anC
woman from this city were arrested
at Portland on a charge Of taking
articles from rooms where they had
been stopping.
The young woman's conduct was eX
emplary under the circumstances,
whatever the man may have done.
The Portland paper said she had pro.
tested against the questionable act
for which he was arrested.
But the innocent party, with the
guilty, had to be spread in the news
papers, with all their family history,
and an irreparable injury lone the
young woman and her parents.
After all the airing in the papers
the case was dismissed, and the young
people come home with regulations
injured as far as it lies in the power
of inexeusable publicity to bring
about such a result.
The journals protests against such
salacious newspaper practices. The
name of Judge Bonham's daughter
should never have been dragged into
the Portland newspapers. She was in
nocent and was never charged with
any crime.
An innocent woman, who may have
been led into an error of judgment by
her feelings in marrying a man capa-
Of wrong-doing, but in her heart
and soul pure as an angel, should al
ways be protected.
The press, that will shield wrong
loers in high political station, that
will cover up the misdeeds of it favor

should never strike down a

THE GREAT
SALT MARSH

To fully appreciate the extent
of the great salt marsh on Sand
Springs desert, owned by Mr..
Charles Kinney, one has to visit
the place. Sunday last the
writer spent a portion of the
daV on the marsh 1t lies near
" in the heart of the desert and
is about two miles long by one
miie wide. Owing to the alb
sence of trans portation facilities,
no work other than assessment
work has been done for some
time. However, there is a like
lihood that a railroad will tap
that country in the near future,
in which event Mr Kinney will.
TO use his own expression, be on
velvet.
Near the center of the marsh
the salt is chemically pure
About the shores there is some
foreign matter which is washed
down from the hills during the
winter months. In the marsh
the salt is forever forming. The
crystals are perfectly clear and
we'll formed. Springs of salt
water abound in the marsh, the
deepest ofwhich has been sound
ed to depth of torty-three feet.
This Is the only spring OF the
many there whose surface is not
crusted with salt. In the short
space of a few weeks after the
salt has been cut another crust
is formed, thus rendering the
supply practically ineXhaustible
At any rate, there is enough to
supply the worlds market for
years to come.

NOTES FROM
THE BIG DITCH

There is no news of startling
moment this week from the
canal site. Work is being pro-
secuted in the usual rapid man
ner. The Stone company is re-
placing the smaller work ami
mails by large draft horses and
will by these means accomplish
better results in quicker time.
Persons having horses II let for
hire can find place for them at
the canal site.
This week q new man as
sumed the ioremanship of the
laborers and it is said that uu-
der his authority the men are
doing much more work than
heretofore. The foreman whom
the new man superseded was
rather harsh with his men and
few stayed any length of time.
Under the new order of things,
however, those employed are
quite content with their work.
The employment agencies con
tinue to send out large mum
bers OF men. Nearly every train
that reaches Wadsworth I'M
loads host of ditch workers.
Very little trouble is said to
take place IN the camps, the de
pertinent of the men being far
above the average considering
the nature of the work.
