SALEM
SHOULD
GET BUSY
Mr.. Conner Says Eastern Cit
les of Our Size Are Far
Ahead of Us

'Tf Salem wishes TO keep abreast
OF the times the people should take
example from the little cities OF her
own size In the Middle West" said
Proprietor j. Connor, of the william
cite Hotel, who, in company with
Mrs. Conner, has Just returned from
a trip extending through Canada,
Michigan, Minnesota, Illinois, Iowa,
Missouri. Kansas. Colorado. Utah
and Washington.
They are so far ahead of Salem
In the way OF public improvements OF
a permanent character that there Is
no comparison, and, In order for Sa-
lem to come up to the standard OF
these thrifty little cities the city
should bond itself for 100000 and
expend the entire sum in street and
general municipal Improvement"
While in Kansas Mr.. Conner visit
ed his brother, Senator w. ]. Con-
ner of Parsons. in the southwest
.ern part OF the state. and says that
what he saw there was revelation
to him, so far as thrift and inter-
prise Is concerned. That city has a
population of between $4,000 and
1900, and. although II is more com
pact, and not spread over quite so
broad an area as Salem, all of the
streets are either paved with brick
or maeadamized, except two. and
these were being improved when he
left there. The buildings, too. he
says. are of better and more sub.
stantial class. and an enormous
amount of business is transacted ey-
cry day. IL is quite railroad CEN
ter, and the monthly payroll OF the
employees OF the railroads. mills, fac
tories. etc, aggregate over $50, 200.
1T was a great surprise to me"

MEAT TEN
DOLLARS
AN OUNCE
Mrs. Elizabeth Davis, a
Modern Female
Shyl0ck

A dispatch from Washington, ID.
bC,. yesterday stated that Miss Eliza
ibeth Davis had brought suit against
Miss Nellie Owens, for $4,000 dam
ages. The fair plaintiff, (the horse
editor takes 1t for granted she is
fair because most women are, no
matter how dark they may be) al
leges that Nellie wrote and sent her
defamatory postal card, causing
said plaintiff, the fair Elizabeth as
aforesaid to lose 80 pounds Of flesh
by the worry attendant on receiving
said card. A brief mental calcula-
tion will demonstrate that Eliza
beth valued her flesh rather highly
or at the rate of about 1857
pound. The dispatch is tantallzingly
barren of information which the
public would appreciate, and which
is necessary to give one a thorough
understanding of the case. 1t fails
to give Lizzie's weight before the pos
tai was received, hence the percent
age Of loss, and the amount of dam
age cannot be estimated-nor can
the degrees OF attenuation be even
imagined If Lisbeth weighed, say
115 pounds when she began to
worry, then she certainly had a kick
coming when she clipped the beam"
at So, and the price $167 a pound is
not exorbitant. But suppose Eliza
weighted 230, with a waist-line like
an egg, and face like a full moon
even the most radical of her sympa-
thizers would consider anything
above the price of roundsteak ex-
orbitant. The dispatch further neg
lects to state, whether the "your
weight reduced while you wait" pro-
cess had ceased. Neither did II con-
vey any information as to whether
the plaintlff had ceased to worry and |
was again taking on flesh and round
ing outin to all her original pristine, |
fullness. II does not state |
Elizabeth was disconnected |
by the loss of 80 pounds of good !
solid American meat, or not. In fact
II is pretty difficult to imagine how
the loss OF few pounds of flesh was |
worth the sum named, for she could |
soon regain 1t. The peculiarity OF
the case is that the plaintiff does
not take into account the mental !
suffering and agony. and sleepless
nights and days filled with grieving.

presumably from gristle. fat or other

pertains to a woman's suit as hair

sends the cold shivers running all
over the romantic parts OF one. The
horse editor sincerely hopes she will
ose her suit, and regain her flesh

There was an exciting time at the

that the steam heaters were open,

Now that Congress has neared a

Now that Congress has neared a
period in it's activeties and there
promises to be breathing space
which people can take a quiet,
same lack at things, it would seem
after all as though the Panama
Canal were about the most impor
tant thing on the horizon. The
President has signified his inten.
ton of going down to take per-
sonal look at the work and this is
a good thing. Of course some fool
constitutionalist is going to raise
the question as to whether or not
be has right to go outside the
United States during his term of
office. But probably he will set-
tie that, as he does the most things,
in his own way and to his own sat-
isfaction. Meantime it may be as
sumed that he is going to see the
canal
Of course lock at the ground
will not give him much better
grasp of the engineering features
of the situation than a layman
would have without going there.
But it is a good thing for him to
see the ground and possibly he
will be able to talk more convin.
cingly of it afterward than before.
But there will be a certain moral
stimulous to both the President
and the others concerned in the
work from his visiting it,
This country is undertaking a
, contract in which the French en-.
gagged and failed. 1t is the biggest
contract in which that human be.
ings have eyer engaged in one this
planet. But there is no ques.
ton of failure. 1t is only a ques.
ton of time. And the visit of the
: President is the thing above al
D others to stimulate the work

him to visit Panama and it will b.
q good thing for all the official
concerned to make ready for hi
