Marion Hotel Forced
to Turn Away Guests

Business is good at the Marion hotel.
In fact it is doing so much business
that many have been turned away
every night this week and according
to Manager Miller, he has been obliged
to refuse reservations for hundreds
for next week during the state fair.
The Hunt Club of Portland yester-
day wired for accommodations for %
for three days and could not be ac-
commodated by Mr.. Miller and 10
others interested in the horse show
could not be given rooms.
Just as help to the hotel, Mr.. Mil
Ter suggests that those who have rooms
that can be rented during the state
fair, notify the hotel and these rooms
will be assigned just the same as reg
ular accommodations. A regular room
bureau has been established.
The third floor of the addition to
the hotel will be ready for guests sun
day and the fourth floor Friday.
Another addition to the service of the
hotel is the employment of Mrs, Leach
who for the past four years has been
housekeeper of the Imperial hotel,
Portland.

Company M Coming
Monday Afternoon

Captain Gehlhar telephoned Mrs. W.
o. Assem-, president of the Salem
Patriotic League this morning that
the company would be the first to be
mustered out Monday morning and
that the boys would surely arrive in
the city Monday afternoon.
As this is official announcement, the
League is going ahead with its plans
to give the soldier boys a rousing re-
ception, and knowing the weakness of
the soldier, will not only give them
the glad hand, but feed them with
genuine chicken pies and home made
cooking at banquet to be given at
the armory Monday evening at 8
o'clock.
After the banquet, there will be a
general reception and everybody in
town is invited to come in and give
them a regular homecoming greeting.

AFTER
SALEM FACTORIES
Uses Lower Freight Rates As
Bait to Tempt Plants to
|" Make Change

What Salem wants is industries that
will give employment TO large num-
Der of men. This opinion was voiced
at the monthly meeting of the CONNER
cial club last evening, and as an aid to
proposed industries, the club will take
up the consideration of an "Industrial
guarantee fund" of $250,000, after
plans that have proved successful i'll
the east.
The plan provides that the business
men of the community loan their cred
it to any industrial firms wishing to
come to Salem and VINO need financial
assistance. In other words, if a manu-
featuring firm wishes TO come to Sa-
lem and it can convince the business
men of its ability to succeed, the loan
the firm will need will be endorsed by
the business Interests of the city, and
on the endorsement, the banks will
loan money. Manager McDanies has
been working on the plan and secured
data and George F. Rodgers spoke in
its favor.
Mr.. Rodgers sounded an alarm in re-
gard to the industrial possibilities of
Salem. He said that Portland firms
had been comforting with several of
Salem S industries, offering them ad-
vantages in Portland, one of them be-
ing better shipping rate. Two in
dustries may leave Salem, and another
manufacturing plant is considering an
other location. eff we hold what we
have, we must be on the qui vive,' he
said To further investigate tae indus
trial guarantee fund, committee was
appointed consisting of William S. Wal
ton, David Eyre, s. B. Elliott, T. b.
Kay and George F. Rodgers.
The terminal rate proposition was
also discussed. Now that the govern
ment owns the locks at Oregon City, 1t
was thought the time was near at hand
when Salem would be entitled to wat
er rates. Salem shipments pay 10 cents
hundred more than coast points al
though at present all water rates are
now suspended as there is scarcely any
water competition. To attend to this
all important subject president Albert
appointed a committee consisting of f.
G.. Deckebach, Max O. Buren, Cnas. X.
Spaulding, Charles r. Archerd and H.
5. Gile.
A report of the financial condition
and plans of the Old Peoples Home
was read by A. A. Lee. The home has
been offered $4,000 by Mr.. Brown of
Fife, Oregon, provided like amount
be raised Half of this amount will
be subscribed in Oregon and the other
half in the city of Salem, and the home
representatives came before the Com
mercial club asking its endorsement. 1t
