SOURCES OF THE DECLARATION.

James A. Garfleld's Reply to Lamar
Whence came the immortal truth
OF the Declaration? To me this
was for years the riddle OF our his
tory. ! have searched long and
patiently through the books OF the
doctrinaires to find the germs from
which the Declaration of Independ-
ence sprang. | find hints in Locke.
in Hobbies, in Rousseau S, and Fen
elon; but they were only the hints
of dreamers and philosophers. The
great doctrines of the declaration
terminated in the hearts of our
fathers. and were developed under
the new influences OF this wilder
ness world, by the same subtle
mystery which brings forth the
rose from the germ OF the rose tree.
Unconsciously to themselves, the
great truths were growing under
the new conditions. until, like the
century plant, they blossomed into
the matchless beauty of the Decla-
ration of Independence, whose fruit
age, increased and increasing, we
enjoy today.

WHAT WORMS HAVE DONE.

Investigations lately completed
by the British government in the
Sudan prove that the remarkable
fertility of the valley of the White
Nile is largely due to the work OF
earthworms.
The castings, the earth which
passes through the digestive svs-
tenn, of the earthworms on one
acre of ground was found to be
23o. $50 pounds in the six months
active growing season that the
farmers of that country enjoy.
This means that lot of the subsoi
has been brought to the surface
and also that the land has been put
in excellent condition by the thor
ough aeration IF the soil made pos
sible through the rtnways of the
ms.-Farm and Fireside.
1t is doubtful If history records a
greater devotion to country than
that Of the Japanese general, Nogi.
His wife says that when he parted
with me to go to the front months
and months ago, he said that as a
husband he would be dead to me
until the war was successfully ter
minated, and that | would not hear
from him before then, nor should |
write him. for his life, his time, his
thoughts belonged utterly to his
sovereign and to his country; that
there must be naught OF personality
to come between.

WARDING OFF PNEUMONIA.

The current health bulletin gives
warning that the pneumonia season
is at its height. In the last eight
weeks I.Io6 deaths occurred from
this preventable disease. In the
next eight weeks there are likely to
be 1900 more deaths caused by
pneumonia. which. the department
says, is winter disease principal
ly because winter is the season Of
close housing and consequent bad
breathing conditions. )" Lack Of
ventilation. cverheating of homes,
workshops and Offices and disincli-
nation to spend time in the open
air cause a lowering of physical
vigor, SO that pneumonia finds VIC
Tins who have unconsciously in
vited it.
Owing to the mild winter. the
death rate from this disease has
been lower than i'll previous win
tiers, but it is too great in large
cities under the best climatic con-
ditions. This winter the pneu-
nonia deaths are 1873 per cent OF
the total deaths in Chicago from
all causes; year ago they were
eos per cent. The open window
is your avenue OF escape from
pneumonia" advises the bulletin.
1t is also the means Of preserving
the physical vigor needed to ward
off other dangerous diseases and to
promote the efficiency of every
worker. Nentilate, walk and keep I
well.-Chicago Record Herald.

Notice of Intention to Improve.

Notice is hereby given that the COM
mon council of the city Of Salem,
Oregon, deems 1t eXpedient and pro-
poses to improve Oak street from the
east side of Commercial street to the
west side Of High street with gravel
concrete pavement at the expense of
the adjacent and abutting property
within said limits, in accordance with
the plans, specifications and esti-
mates for the improvement of said
Oak street from the east side of Com
mercial street to the West side Of
High street, as heretofore adopted by
the common council and on file in
the office Of the city recorder which
are hereby referred to for a more par
ticular and detailed description Of
said improvement, and are hereby
made a part of this notice.
Written remonstrance against the

unable to realize her position, or that
she hoped, by keeping up stiff upper
lip to, as we Americans say, put
up stiff bluff" to force better terms
than the allies offered, but this seems
improbable, 1t Is possible, indeed ex-
tremely probable, that some one or
more Of the great powers encouraged
her delegates to stand out, even offer
ing promises OF assistance, at the last
moment, should 1t be necessary, to
force better terms from the allies. Be
this as 1t may, Turkey is now at the
end Of her rope, A few more thou
sands slaughtered, a few more sound
belaborlngs, and she will be compelled
to yield and accept such terms as the
allies may offer her. The question now
is: "Will, from the present alliance,
a new world power spring into being
in Europe?"

ALASKA THE SURPRISING.

AAIHEN Alaska was purchased the
wv price Of $72OOOOO was looked
upon by practically all Ameri-
cans as exorbitant. The general idea
we had of Alaska was that what was
not icebergs was a great waste OF
snow, uninhabitable, desolate, barren,
useless for any vurpose under the sun,
except for the production of furs,
Events have proven that we had but
little knowledge of that great coun-
try-nor have we yet. in short time
after its purchase we found that be-
sides furs there was a fishing industry
OF immense value, though we hardly
suspected it's magnitude. Then wo
learned that It had some timber, and
later still became somewhat excited
over the Aladdin-like tale Of vast
stores of gold We could scarcely be-
lieve these, yet they were in every way
true. Our investment in worthless
icebergs Of $7,2O0,0O has brought us
returns Of about 100000, 900. We have
received in 40 years, in round num-
bers, sixty times as much as we paid
In other words our investment has
paid 150 per cent year for 40 years.
This should be enough, but recent
events show that while we have owned
the country so long, we yet know lit
tie or anything about it, or its possibil-
tiles. About the last place on earth,
even the widest dreamer would select
as a pasture ground for stock, would
be Alaska; yet It is not impossible,
but highly probable that in the near
future the people Of the United States
will get a portion, and no small por-
tion, either, Of its metal supply from
Alaska. A few years ago Uncle Sam
brought from Lapland and placed in
Alaska few herds Of reindeer. In
June, 1911, these had increased until
the herds totaled 32,629 and in Octob-
er of that year a shipment Of reindeer
meat was made to Seattle, there being
some 1880 pounds Of it, and this was
sold at fancy figures, bringing 25 to
rs cents a pound
Governor Clark estimates that at
the present rate of increase there will
be 100000 reindeer in Alaska, from
which we may draw part OF our meat
supply He further estimates that the
treeless regions Of Northern and West
ern Alaska, some 4OOOOO,OOO acres
will support 100000 reindeer, which
would 90 far towards furnishing the
country's meat supply With fish ant
fur, timber and gold coal and copper
all In abundance It seemed the coun
try was rich enough but now when |
bobs up as great pasture that will
supply us with delicious meat, we ma,
we'll pause and wonder what thi
worthless area Of snow and Ice will
do for us next. It seems improbabl
that II will become a competition q
California and Florida, in the produc
tion Of citrus fruits, yet, in the light O
recent weather in California, and tn
unsupported things Alaska has here
totore done for us who is there shal
fix the limit for her or even CUES
what she will do next?

The first annual meeting Of the
Chamber of Commerce Of the United
States of America" as it rather grand
iloquently styles itself, was held in
Washington January 2O-29, and the re-
port of its meeting is at hand, From
the latter we Judge that the Chambers
main object is to advise congress what
1t shall or shall not do, Which is
rather lofty aspiration and use for
even so large a chamber.
Under the new law a sack must hold
100 pounds Of potatoes, whether 1t is
built for that quantity or not. This
is little tough on the sack, but the
profound idea is off the laboring mind
of the motherly legislator who gave
birth to the idea, and the other men,

no doubt, feel relieved.

Would Have
the Mayor
Name Him
MAYOR SLEEVES THINKS THE
CHIEF OF POLICE SHOULD BE
APPOINTED BY MAYOR, AND
SHOULD ELECT HIS OWN OFF.
GERS.

II the suggestion and plans Of May
or Sleeves are carried out by the city
council, and the matter will be placed
before that body some time in the
near future, the chief Of police will
not be responsible for his actions to
the people at large, who elect him,
under the present system, nor will be
be responsible to the members Of the
council but the mayor will have com
plete supervision of that officer and
the men employed therein.
Mayor Sleeves contends, and his
contention is supported by others in
terested in police affairs, that the
mayor should be made the one party
to appoint the chief Of police, instead
of that official being elected by the
people. After the appointment Of the
chief has been made, declares the
mayor, the chief should have the privi-
lege to appoint or recommend the
men over whom he is to have charge,
and they should be duly accepted up
on approval by the mayor.
Strife Causes Inefflclency.
Placing authority under which the
police department shall be conducted
in the hands Of the chief executive Of
the city will have tendency to elm
mate strife and i'll feeling between
the officers and the city administra-
ton, according to the belief Of Mayor
Sleeves. In the event the mayors
plans are carried out, Chief Shedeck,
or any other chief, for that matter,
will be responsible to the mayor sole
| ly, and, should that officer prove un-
fit for the office, or should he be de-
clared incapable, the mayor will have
the authority to discharge him and ap-
point another in his place, without no
tlce or unnecessary red tape.
There should be no police commit
tee to contend with, says the mayor
The proper head to which the chiel
of police should look to for orders OF
directions should consist Of one man
and that man should be held respon
sible for the actions of the police
force.
Mayor Sleeves clearly shows his
metal in offering to stand responsible
for the actions of both the chief ant
his under officers, and that his plar
is a popular one goes without saying
For the past four years the only fric
tion occurring between the members
OF the council and the police depart
ment was due to quarrels between th'
department and the police committee
The old members of the police com
mittee in the council have the mos
commendable record for harmony an
activity for the reason the officer
and councilmen were on good terms
and no attempt was made by the mem
bers of the committee to dictate as t
what action the chief Of police shoul
take, one way or the other, The oil
council was not adverse to advlsin
the chief Of police Of any violations G
the law, however but that official wa
permitted to select his men and direC
them without interference.

SYSTEM IN THE HOUSEHOLD
Means a Wonderful Saving Of Time
and Money When It 10 Prop
erIy Worked Out.

A fireless cooker is a great boon to
the housekeeper; it saves many steps
for her tired feet, keeps the kitchen
cool and pleasant, and above all, cooks
the food thoroughly without loss OF
flavor or danger of bun ming.
One of these lavor-saving devices,
even of the homemade variety, Is as
valuable for keeping foods thoroughly
chilled as it is in conserving heat for
cooking processes, SO that it 10 really
a splendid investment for kitchen
equipment.
1t is becoming the tendency more
and more for the housekeeper to put
her work upon business basis. using
system in her expenditure of time,
money and labor, just as her husband
does, who goes out into the world.
This is evinced by the planning OF
meals a week In advance, which not
only removes the nerve strain of daily
marketing, but actually reduces the
living expenses. because the left-overs
may be utilized: these usually find
their way into the garbage can, giving
foundation to the reports of our sin
full waste and extravaganza.
Fortunately, the haphazard guessing
housekeeper who waits until an hour
before mealtime to think of the menu
has almost vanished from the ranks OF
modern, up-to-date women. In her
place we have the housekeeper who
appreciates her opportunities for dis
playing her business ability, and who
realizes that there is no profession SO
broad as that of homemaking.

WHEN you WASH BLANKETS
Process That viii Not Only Cleanse
but Materially Assist In Their
Renovation.

The method Of washing blankets
recommended by the School Of House
hold Science, Macdonald college. Is
this:
Things necessary: l. A fine, sun.
shiny. windy day. 2. Plenty Of soft
water, melted soap, made from a good
soap free from excess Of alkali. and
some ammonia or borax.
Things to avoid: Heat, rubbing and
rubbing on soap. as these will shrink
the WOOL
Process: l. To a tub of tepid mot
warm) water. add one tablespoonful Of
ammonia or borax (this softens the
water and aids in cleansing. and
enough melted soap to make good
suds. g Wash the blankets by knead-
Ing and squeezing (never rubbing). in
two waters. A good washing machine
is excellent for this, and saves much
hand labor. 3. Rinse in two waters.
OF the same temperature as the wash
ing water. A change in temperature
will shrink wool. 4. Wiring we'll, using
the wringer. shake we'll and stretch
we'll. Attention to these three mat
tiers will ensure soft, fluffy blankets.
5. During the drying If they are shaken
two or three times they will be much
softer and fiuffier.
Should 1t be the case that your
blankets are now hard and discolored
from mistaken treatment in the past.
one washing with above method will
do much to restore the f1uffiness and
Wilderness, while a second washing in
due season will further add to their
renovation.
