the condition of every resident of Mo

last rails which connect Molalla with
Candy and the outside world. Every

operation could feel growing pains in
each and every limb,
The willamette Valley Line is here
this afternoon, and will be officially
opened for transportation next Friday
September 10, when Molalla will be-
come a part Of the commercial entity
Of Oregon. TO the people of this por.
ton Of the Willamette valley it means
freedom from isolation, an opportu
nifty for expansion, and to the com

that a new and vastly important sec

TROOPS ROUT STRIKERS
AND MANY ARE HURT

Calumet, Mich, Sept. l3.-Troopers
with drawn sabers charged crowd Of
striking miners and strike sympathizers
in Eighth street today. Many persons,
including a number of women, were
knocked down and trampled by the
horses and a number were injured. The
clash followed a gathering in the street
as a demonstration of sympathy with
the strike, The military authorities
have prohibited such assemblages.
The mine owners refusal to arbitrat-
their differences with the miners had
caused the Western Federation officials
to order a peaceable demonstration
There was a tremendous turnout in re-
sponse to the call, the streets were
iammed, traffic was tied up and the
police, finding themselves powerless

1t is believed that the celebration
will be attended by men representing
the commercial interests from Portland
to Salem, it being part of the plans
of Robert +. strahorn to ultimately ex-
tend the Molalla line to Silverton,
where it will be in direct communica-
ton with the electric line from Salem

have visited in Salem during the past
week for the purpose of sizing up the
city and its surroundings. Real estate
men have been answering the questions
put to them by strangers, presumably
eastern people, while the secretary of
the Salem Commercial club has re-
ceived a score of visitors during the
past five days who mentioned a desire
to see something suitable for farming,
or get in touch with the business men
Of the town.
With this class Of people demand
ing information concerning the gener'
al conditions in Salem and vicinity
and the local people showing an en-
terprising interest in upbuilding the
city, Salem is beginning to get on the

Business Brisk.

Notwithstanding the fact that it will
be ten days at least before the hop
crop will have been harvested, business
houses here boast of enjoying a ban
ner business for this time of the year.
The "high cost of living" does not
seem to affect the retail trade, and the
general trend Of business is directed to
the increase instead of the annual fall
decrease.
While the grocery men are always
fortunate during hop picking season,
the clothing houses are receiving their
share of the business also, and, accord
ing to the statements made by other
business men, the trade is improving
right along in every business. With
these conditions existing in the city at
time when business is generally sup
posed to lull, some lively times are
being looked forward to by local mer
chants this winter.
