Those who may have failed to read
the reader in recent Capital journal
had better hunt up the paper and read
it. 1t is entitled "a Soul Satisfying
Discovery. The editor therein dis
plays fine sense of both humor and
sarcasm. 1t seems some of our scient-
lists have discovered a prehistoric
horse having certain number of toes
on its feet. 1t might be well to state
that said horse was dead-as most fos.
sils are, though there are some live
ones in the ''modern period with
moss ON their backs. 1t seems the thing
tnat 50 satisfied the soul was that this
Eohippus had the exact right number
of toes, not too few and not too mony.
This is what these horse doctors had
been looking for for a long time, but
not until lately could they say "Eu-
reka.' Now should it be discovered
that these horses, small as "yellow
dog under the wagon" had riders with
aoofs on the ends of their legs it would
be II most amazing discovery as this
would be reversing nature in its pres.
ent aspect. The "missing link " would
be tame affair beside this should il
be discovered.

REGARDING NEWSPAPERS

The people of Albany seem to be demanding better
newspapers which is good and wholesome sign of that
communtys life and spirit Good newspapers make good
towns because they have large subscription lists and in
turn interest their subscribers in the town and its bust
interests, and afford medium for carrying their
business talks to the people OF the surrounding country
The Capital Journal has frequently called attention to
this fact and it cannot be too strongly impressed upon
community, because the people cannot expect to have
good newspapers unless they patronize them. The
Capital Journal has 1900 subscribers, Il 900 regular
readers daily, showing that the people OF the Salem
territory want newspaper and are eager to do their
share to make it stronger and better, but not all the
businessmen appreciate the value of such excellent
vehicle for advertising their business before its big family
of readers And this is condition that obtains in many
communicated the mail order houses and city depart
ment stores taking advantage of it to their great
profit.
