Badly Needed Says Morse.

DR.. Morse answered the question
'Does Salem Want 4 New Hospital" 3"
with most-emphatic eyes. He said
the conditions under which the ply
scians had worked We're most unfav-
orable. Now that the board was com
PEELED to build, as the state had taken
the old building, he hoped a $4,000
one would be erected
"It is about time that we lay aside
the old hospital and get new one" }"
said Louis Lachmund. when strang-
er comes to town, we want to show
him hospital that reflects credit on
the city" He suggested that pos
sibiy bonds might be issued to raise the
additional $25 00-necessary.
+. G. Deckebach told~the good eiti-
zens something about Salem that he
felt he Just had to tell. 1t was to the
effect that Salem was in the habit of
having everything done for it, and not
doing anything for any one else. "Wo
take no interest in outside affairs and
want everything TO come to u.s." he
said. of it had not been for the
Cherrians, Salem would hardly be
known, except on the map. We want
to get rid of this moss-back spirit
We showed bad spirit and turned
down the Pendleton normal by a large
majority, and we are so sclt-satlsfied
that we do not even decorate the town
for the state fair. We receive and do
not give. Until we get over this
spirit, we won build a hospital. y
Father Moore of st. Joseph's church
was strongly in favor of an adequate
hospital and referred to cities in the
state, half the size of Salem that had
large hospitals, completely equipped.
A Sensible Suggestion.
Frank Davey suggested that when
the new hospital was completed, that
each fratcrnal organization and each
church be asked to equip one room,
DR.. Doney said that strangers in
coming to the city saw lot of small
wooden buildings, the college campus
and the inadequate Salem hospital. He
was glad that the time had come for
the building of modern hospital as he
disliked very much to have his eastern
friends take a look at the present
structure.
Aug. Huckestein, as member of the
board of the Salem Hospital, said they
had been served with notice by the
state TO Vaeate by December l. He
hoped the ladies of the orphan board
would cooperate with the Salem hos
pital and give it clear title, in order
that the present holding might be used
for the new hospital soon TO be built.

When it becomes almost certain that
the bone dry law had passed at the re-
cent election, there was a stampede for
wet goods, as the impression was that
as soon as the returns were in and GER
titled. that the governor would issue
a proclamation to the effect that there
was nothing doing in the way of inter
state commerce in the booze line. Hence
the business of the express companies
from such wet sections as Hornbrook
and San Francisco have been doing q
land office business. However, the sus-
pense is now over as it seems that bust
ness in the wet goods line under the
legal restrictions will 60 on until the
legislature takes hand at fixing a
proper penalty for a violation of the
bone dry law.

START MOVEMENT
FOR NEW HOSPITAL
With $25,OOO as Starter Pro-
pose to Erect Fiirst-ClasS
Institution

There is one thing certain. Salem
intends to have an up,to-date hospital
at an early date and the business inter
ests of the community, backed by the
Commercial club have expressed them
selves in favor of one that will com
pare favorably with any in the state.
At the Marion hotel last evening,
when more than 100 representative
business men met to discuss the hos
pital problem, the opinion was unan-
imous that right now was the time for
the citizens to get behind the Salem
hospital board and subscribe an amount
to be added to the $4,000 already
available that will enable the capital
| city to boast of hospital equal to
those of the other cities.
| The dinner was presided over by l.
L. Patterson who expressed himself as
being glad to be regarded as a citizen
of this city, although he had really
strayed from the city limits.
Chas. A. Park, secretary of the Salem
hospital, explained the difficulty of
the hospital board in not owning their
land in fee simple as their holdings
were originally given for an orphan
home, and it would be necessary for
the ladies who are directors of the
Oregon Children's Aid society to join
with the hospital board in order to
give them clear title. So far, the
ladies had declined to do this.
Building Is outgrown.
Judge c. L. McNary. speaking of the
rRelationship of the Hospital TO the
Citizens,' referred to the amount of
money spent each year by the hospital,
the difficulty physicians had under the
handicap of the present conditions at
the Salem hospital and lie expressed
the belief that the present building
had out-lived its usefulness. at is mp
to us to do something for Salem. We
are a democracy Of poor people and
contributions must come from all, not
few, and our hospital must be second
to none in the state.'
Dr. W. II. Byrd claimed the distinc
tion of treating the first patient when
the hospital was first located on
Twelfth The honor of being the first
patient was hobo who fell from an
| S. p. train at Woodbun. Anyhow, the
doctor often wondered how people
stood for that first hospital AZ am
glad the state has condemned the l-2
acres belonging to the hospital. If it
hadn't, fear we never would have had
better one. We do not want make
shift of a hospital-it must be mod
crn $4,000 one of which we may be
proud

JOHNSON HAS CORRECT IDEA
Falsely Advertising Star Player in Eff
fort to Pad Box Office Receipts
Is DispIeasing.

Ban Johnson has the right idea in
trying to break up the practice OF
falsely advertising a star player in an
effort to pad the gate receipts, but ne
is picking on the wrong club as the
horrible example, writes Harry Keck
in Pittsburgh Post. The recent adver-
Using of a Covaleskie VS.. Covalesk1e
pitching duel which was not staged, or
some other similar occurrence, is more
like the thing Ban should get at. An
other abuse along the same lines is the
carrying by a club Of a high-priced
beauty for weeks before sending him
into a game, thereby leaving it up to
the fans to presume that he will be
used almost any day. This has been
done time after time when it was clear
to everybody that the big idea was to
use that particular player as a box
office attraction as long as possible
without working him. Yet no one ever
started a rumpus in these instances.
Such practices are not fair to the fans.
In fact, some of them smack of delib-
crate misrepresentation and if Ban
Johnson can curb them he will be
given the united thanks of the base
ball public and not in his own league
alone.
