One Oregon Town That i Proud OF
Having "A Good Military Band.


Salem should justly feel proud OF
its reputation for being one of the
foremost musical oenters of the
northwest. Besides the orchestras,
various choral societies, several yo-
cal quartets. mandolin and guitar
clubs and strlnged quintette, Salem
has a band which probably can no.
be excelled in any city OF like pop-
ulation in the United States.
The present organization OF the
Salem Military Band was perfected
about two years ago and in its mem
bership are experienced musicians
who have filled engagements with the
best musical aggregations OF the
lcOuntry. The band Is supported by
the citizens and business men OF the
city by a popular subscription and In
return the members OF the organiz-
alton give an open air concert IN
the city parks at least once per week
when the wather permits. The band
volunteered to render two concerts
during the past summer playing
Sunday afternoon and Wednesday
evening which entertainments have
been a source OF great pleasure to
the music loving public.
Henry \. stoudenmeyer the d.
rector OF the band IS cornetist
composer and arranger OF rare at
tainments and the success Of the of-
ganization Is largely due 20 his ef-
fcient and untiring work. He was
cornet soloist with the Julius Adler's
band Of Iowa also soloist for a sea
son with the Venice of America band
at Venice, California. He was for
six years director OF the Chemawa
Indian School band and Is az pres
ent besides being leader OF the city
organization instructor Of band In
struments OF the Willamette nniyer-
sity.
The Salem Military Band has for
many years furnished many OF the
musicians for the state fair band
and during the years OF 1904 and
1906 received the contract for fur
nishing the music for IN fair which
engagement was filled 70 the entire

Transmission, states:
1.-THE advices which by letter and cable

the Christian Herald feels impelled to put
forth q mighty effort to stay the ravages
Of starvation, plague and death to the full
extent of its ability"

ALL IN GOOD SHAPE.
Close of Congress Promises to Be, More
Uneventful Than Usual.

The close of the present session of Con-
gress promises to be very uneventful, in
deed, more tame than usual. There are no
acute differences on any important meas
ures between the House and Senate and no
legislation of exceeding national Importance
is hanging fire. The present prospect Is
that 1t will not be necessary to have a
session of either House next Sunday, al
though the Congress will come to an end
Monday noon
All the appropriation bills are in good
shape and there are no important items
over which the two houses promise to get
into -Wrangle.4-z Some measures of local
Importance to the District of Columbia are
awaiting adjustment, but probably will not
occupy much of the attention of Congress.
The sixteen-hour employees railway bill and
the ship subsidy bill may occasion some de-
bate in the closing hours but it is not be-
heved they will detain either house after
unreasonable hours.

CHICAGO February 2s.-'I do not take
such a gloomy view of the situation and
prospects of this country as some of my
railway friends do" said B. F. Yoakum,
chairman of the executive committee of the
Rock Island Frisco system, who arrived
here yesterday from New York. This
country is too big and too powerful to be
ruined" continued Mr.. Yoakum. at is
bound to grow bigger and stronger, and the
railways will grow with it. They will not
be ruined by the agitation today over their
operations and rates. 1t is unfortunate that
this outburst Of hostility toward the rail-
ways and adverse litigation should come
just at time when the railroads are con-
fronted with the necessity Of securing vast
amounts of money in order to make the ex-
tensions and improvements necessary to
tation facilities.
1.-The anti-railway agitation today will
retard, but not stop, the development and
improvement Of the railroads. They will
be obliged to expend just as much money
as they can economically in order to take
care of the business now In sight for them.
They cannot let their lines deteriorate or
stop making improvements, for there is in
sight today enough business to keep all the
roads busy for a year at least The i'm
provements and extensions, however, will
be limited by the ability of the railroads to
secure men and money to do the work.
Some of the larger plans for improvements
of terminals and construction Of new lines
may be deferred until general conditions
return to a more normal state, but the rail-
roads must go right along with the general
policy Of improving their facilities for doing
more business"
