Mr.. Phipps has a peculiar distinc-

battle field which for a time was
marked with a rough slab bearing his
name and the Humber of his regi-
ment. Comrades picked up the mu-
tilated form OF a mar they believed
to be him and buried it after the bat
tie, to the surprise of the soldier who
passed and saw the slab thrust into
the mound. 1t was near the spot

Easy to Operate

The Overlands operate by pedal control.
One goes backward or forward, fast or
slow, by simply pushing pedals, 1t is as
free TO steer.
The Overland has fewer parts than any
other automobile. One part IS made TO
take the place of many. II is free from
complexities. The operations are all au-
tomato.
4 novice could run an Overland from
coast to coast the first time he tried. One
of these cars has run 1000 miles without
stopping the cnglne.

The Overlands are made-as watches are

And we devote a whole factory to one

Because of these facts, and our enormous

per cent in the past year alone.

CATION, and be sure of its grounds
before presenting the subject to the
voters for their action.
He stated that he regarded the
purchase of the water plant as the
cheapest and easiest solution of the
pure water problem in the city, and
that he hoped the people would give
it their support at the polls.
Plant Paying Proposition.
Councilman Elliott in speaking on
the subject showed that the plant
was paying proposition. In sub
sanitation of such an assertion, he
showed that AZ taps had been in
stalled in 1O7; 172 in 1908; 2S5 in
1909, and in the last nine months
there had been installed 249. The
revenue of the plant at the present
is $4,000 a year and the net reve-
nue. after the deduction of all ex-
penses would easily be $4,000. He
pointed out as one evidence of in
crease of the revenue, the installa.
ton of the South and North Salem
sewer systeme.
Must Have Pure Water.
John H. Albert, president of the
Capital National Bank, spoke on the
necessity of pure water system-a
mountain water supply. The state
he maintained, would demand pure
water for its institutions and thar
unless the city availed itself of an
opportunity Of securing it-and it
means much revenue-some one else
would. He stated that it was i'm
portant now to get the proposition
well under way so that when the leg.
isature met that the city would be
enabled to present contract for its
and expressed himself as
fully satisfied that it would sign a
contract.
G. M. Eppley, president of the
Mems League, expressed
himself as in favor of the purchase
of the plant, and said that the
Board of Trade and the Business
Mems League should both give the
it's hearty support.
A. N. Moores and John f. Lafl1y
also spoke on the subject and their |
talks were along the same line as |

CONSCIENCE

DIVIDENDS

Cincinnati, o.. July 14.-Miss
Irene Tedesehe, sister of Mrs. F. H.
Philipson, today has letter whose
writer she would like to know.
The communication came from
Louisville and was written by a girl
who said she was Miss Tedesche's
classmate two years ago at the Uni
versity of Chicago. She said she had
taken $S.40 from Miss Tedesche's
pocketbook during her university ca
reer. So much has her conscience
troubled her since that she enclosed
$500 to make restitution.
The theft so preyed on the mind
of the writer, the letter said, that
she was unable to sleep. Since she
had invested the purloined money,
and the returns had been great, she
asked that Miss Tedesche accept the
$500.

Preventing Widows.

It sounds all but ridiculous to
speak of preventing widows, yet
that was what was discussed at the
National Conference of Charities and
Correction held this year at st.
Louis. The persistency with which
the subject kept coming up is noted
in THE Survey"
1T was in a way the keynote Of
the meeting for every problem of
dependence, of education, of crime,
of health, is infinitely sharpened
when it falls on a woman's shoul-
ders. Did the boys run wild for
lack of fathers stern hand; did the
girls fall into evil ways because the
mothers were away at work; did
scanty women's wages mean meager
meals and a rickety baby; were all
the children sent to work early at
the first futureless task that offered
wages; did the mother break down
from the double hazard of self-sup-
port and home-making; did she con-
tract tuberculosis in an unsanitary
factory; did she go insane from
worry; did she crowd dodgers into
her home-if any one of score of
such things happened, the question
was not, why did 1t happen. but why
was she a widow?
SO the workers in charity turned
from their unending task of filling
the widows cruise and demanded of
industry in its characteristic acct
dents and diseases, in the deadly
monotony and speeding up of its
wages as measured in terms Of fam
lily life-demanded of industry an
answer as to why it has put upon
society charge of pensions such rs
no government has ever borne from
war"

Pensions Tor Wbdows.

A widow with three little children
lived in furnished room on the top
floor of a cheap lodging house in
Chicago. Every morning after she
had put out the fire for fear of an
accident, and told the children to get
into bed If they were cold, she
locked the door and went to her
scrubbing of large downtown thea
ter, for which she received SIC per
month. Because her fellow dodgers
complained that the children cried
all day, the landlady said that the
mother must move. She tried In
vain TO find another room equally
cheap, and at last, quite crazed by
worry and anxiety, made up her
mind that she must dispose of her
children. Had the overworked wo
man taken her own life, the state
would have cared for her children
either by the most approved method
of boarding them out or in institu-
tions for dependent children. Would
it, therefore, seem so unreasonable
to board them with their own moth
er, requiring a standard of nutrition
and school attendance?-Jane Ad-
dams in The Survey.

The spectacle of busy men of af-

listen to reports from the foreign
mission fields and to lend their ener-
gies to the prosecution of this enter
prise is, the Century goes on to say,
zone that will arrest the attention
of our social philosophers. 1t would
indicate that religion is not yet ready
to be put into the category of spent

to is purely religious; political and
economical considerations are quite
in the background. 1t is believed
that the contribution of the American
churches to foreign missions will be

HANDSOME DIVIDENDS.

The proposed purchase of the
water plant of the Salem Water
company, and the installation in
connection with a filtration plant,
or it's connection with a pure noun
tain supply-the Santiam river
was the chief topic of discussion at
the Board of Trade meeting last
night. A number of the city's prom
inent citizens spoke on the subject,
and upon the conclusion of the dis
cussion it was voted to appoint a
committee consisting of seven mem
bers from the board of trade and
seven from the Business Mems

the purchase of the plant. This
general committee will be represent
ed by resident of each ward in the
city who is familiar with conditions

Should Support Council.
Frank G. Deckebach was one Of
the speakers of the evening and he
maintained that the people should
come to the support of the city
council in the movement inaugural
ed looking to the purchase of the
plant. He stated that conditions de.
manded the need of pure water.
that the council had investigated
the subject, and after securing fig.
ures upon the Salem Water COM
pany's plant, and considering all the
circumstances in connection with it,
had decided that the wisest course
to pursue was it's purchase. The
people should have confidence
enough in tn emen they had elected
to office to follow out their recon-
mendations, he maintained, and he
gave it as his opinion that the
Board of Trade should rally to the
support of the council.
Presents Side of Council.
Alderman Stoltz followed Mr..
Deckebach, and he reviewed the
work of the council in it's efforts to
obtain better water for the city. He
stated that there had been some cri-

of time required to get this sub
ject before the people, but that this
was due to the fact that the problem
