At tremen's supper in this city Dec
3, 1895, an address by Mayor Hanson
WAS read in which he said of his po-

lepers. and should exist, die, and be
buried where their presence will not be
offensive and detrimental to the well
being of the community at large"

In advocating the purchase of rock
crushing plant in his address last
March, Mayor Hanson said: "Citlzens
in suburban districts have informe d
me that if a cru5her is placed in their
district they will supply rock to the
crusher free" In his Opera House
speech, after stating that the crusher
had been permanently located on Con-
gress street, he said: Il can buy rock
not exceeding So per cord, crush 1t not
exceeding cents per ton and put 1t
on the street nearly as cheap as gravel
by teams working by the day That
is somewhat different from having the
rock delivered at the crusher free.
Now as to the cost of crushing the
rock. The mayor says it can be crush
ed at not exceeding cents ton. II
takes four men, including an engineer,
to run the plant, and the cost, inclu-
ding fuel, repairs, etc, cannot be less
than SO day. If 20 tons are crushed
in day at cents ton we would have,
according to the mayors estimate, a
cost of only S1.40. The scale on which
the Mayor expatiates as such great
bargain is advertised in the Sears, Roe
buck catalogue at $3.50, and may be
bought by any one at that price, and
if AS he says, Fairbanks wanted $50
for "a scale it was no doubt a differ
ent article altogether and better worth
the money than the scale offered by
the mail order concern.

ADEQUATE
POLICE
SYSTEM
DEMAND OF CAPITAL
CITY

After organizing a police force in
the Capital City with results most
fattering in driving out the Grimm
al class and bringing peace and
quietudo out of a reign of dread,
caused by the many depredations
committed almost every night a
month ago, the city council is said
to be planning changes on the pres
ent police force.
ANY radical moves taken by the
council can hardly be accounted for
by Chief of Police Gibson. The two
additional men placed on the force
by the council at the time crime was
rampant, had an electric effect on
the conditions. Within four days
after the force was strengthened,
hold-ups, house-breaking and other
petty depredations ceased, and the
suspicious looking characters who
had frequented the city at the time,
and who were here for no good pur-
pose, disappeared and have not been
back.
From an article in THE Detec-
tive" one OF the most widely known
papers OF criminal information pub
lished in the United States, IL has
been learned that the men affiliated
with the thieving and robbing cir
cles are each and all perfectly fam
iliar with police and law conditions
in every state and city in America.
They are the same as one band of
criminals, although not continually
associated with each other TAX

COTTAGE GROVE EDITOR
Is CALLED UPON

The editor of this paper called
another newspaper man to order for
referring to the German-American
Verein as the Sauerkraut society.
The practice of slurring the German
American in some newspaper IL
based on a misapprehension, because
sauerkraut is no longer an article
used exclusively by the Germans,
but has become a universal article
of diet among Americans themselves.
Salem has factory where 1t Is sold
and quite as much of 1t is retailed
among Americans as among the
Germans themselves. We copy what
the editor at Cottage Grove has to
say in justice to that paper for
apoligizing, not because we care any
thing about the matter ourselves.

western Oregon, Dec. IS. 1905 }

(Western Oregon, Dec. Is, 19O6.)
II. Hofer, of the Salem Capital
Journal, takes exception to an arti-
Gle published in this paper last Fri
day under the head of "Sauerkraut
Society Elect Him." and rushes into
print. declaring that The Western
Oregon has not only insulted him
but every German-American citizen
in Lane county. The item the colonel
gets so riled over was clipped from
Salem paper, printed under Sa-
lem date line of December Sth, and IL
his feelings we're so badly hurt, why
didn't he begin at home with his
hammer? The item cast no refiec-
tion on Mr.. Hofer or the German
American citizens in Salem, Lane
county or anywhere else, but was
intended as q compliment to him fol-
being elected an alderman of the
Capital City without his knowledge
or consent. No Insult" waE m
tended to the German-American cit
liens. and Mr.. Hofer knows 1t. We
are carrying around little German
American blood in our own system,
and we have an idea ION the quiet"
that they are among the best people
on earth; and IL they should elect us
alderman of Salem, without our
knowledge or consent. we would not
get hot under the collar, even II our
contemporary should say that the
"Sauerkraut Society" did Il.
This Writer has examined the files
of the Salem papers and cannot find
that any Salem paper used the Of
fensive expressions, The Sauer-
kraut Society,"" Unless the Cottage
Grove editor can tell from what
newspaper he copied that expression,
he must stand convicted OF having
invented Il and used II himself Not
even the Salem Prohibition paper
uesed that headline or expression.
We do not believe there is a news
paperman In Salem who would
write thus disrespectfully about the
German-Americans of this city. The
Salem newspaper writer's at present
are all men who do not drink, and
certainly no sober, self-respecting
American citizen would try to insult
the nationality OF his neighbors In

Ten Per Cent Wage Reduction in
Effect February l.
President Finley Declines to Give
Reason for the Roads
Action,

Employees Of the Southern Railway, be-
ginning with President Finley and end
ing with nobody but the officers know
who, will be reduced to the amount Of 10
per cent on all salaries beginning Febru-
airy /, 1908. This order, which is sweeping
in its effect. was issued yesterday by
President Finley himself
The order given out follows:
President Finley. Of the Southern Rail-
way Company stated this afternoon that
in view Of the falling off in business and
the decrease in revenues the manage
ment Of the Southern Railway Company
has determined, as a step in its pro
gramme of reducing expenses. TO put into
effect February /. 1908, a reduction Of 10
per cent in the pay Of the president, vice
presidents, and the other general officers
and their office forces.
When seen yesterday afternoon, Presi-
dent Finley declined to discuss the state
ment. or say how many men or what
branches viii be affected by this order.
He said the statement given out was
determined upon by the road only after
long deliberation, and is complete in It
self.
When asked If the operating force Of
the road viii be affected, Mr.. Finley
was noncommittal.
A theory that has been advanced to
account for the reduction is that the
recent fight on various roads by she
States of Virginia, North Carolina,
Georgia, and Alabama, which resulted in
reduced rates. has caused the new sched-
ule of pay.
