VEST SALEM is IN TROUBLE.
t'ity Government Handicapped By
Loss of Records; Funds Missing

The little hamlet of West Salem is
having all the troubles of full tle,lo-
aity. Records are missing and the
treasury is minus part nf its Frances.
Three years ago the eople of West
Salem decided to have 4 city Of their
own. They incorporated and full
set of city officers were elected. The
citizens took a great deal of interest
in municipal affairs for about wear.
Then the live-wires began to move
away and the small amount of bust
ness to be transacted led the people
into a state of apathy, from which
they lust awole last fall.
4 new election was held. but when
the new mayor and council attempted
to assume their duties, they found
the city's affairs in a sadly befud-
died condition. Public funds were
missing and worst of all, records by
which they might have been checked
up were also missing. They enga"-
ed an expert accountant, but as yet
he is unable to tell whether the city
has been bilked. or whether the miss
ing hundred dollars is due to faulty
bookkeeping.

SALEM, MASS, is AMAZED.
Dumfounded When Asked By Salem
Ore, To Change Name.

Sheer nerve is the way the Salem,
Mass, News describes the proposal
of Ivan G. Mcdaniel, manager Of the
Commercial club of Salem, Ore, that
Salem, Mass, change its name to
avoid confusion with the cherry city
of this state.
Mayor Benson Of the Massachu-
setts city, received letter
from the Oregon booster in which it
is suggested that, to avoid confusion,
it would be well for the staid old city
of witchcraft memories to adopt an
other monaker" so as not to be
confused in the public mind with the
Western Salem.
1t took some time for Mayor Ben
son to recover from the shock, it is
stated, but when he came to, he took
his pen in hand and wrote back a
few lines that are crammed full of
reproof.
The Salem, Mass, News says the
man with the most colossal nerve has
been discovered. and is in favor of
awarding all honors in this respect to
Manager Mcdaniel.

Mrs. Alexander Thompson, of The
Dalles, the only woman member OF
the Oregon House of Representatives,
spoke to normal school students and
citizens of Monmouth Tuesday morn
ing in the Normal school chapel on
the subject, "Women in Politics. "
In her address she argued that il
politics is corrupt, it will be the wo-
men who will bring about a reform.
She told of how women were needed
in every line of business, also in gov
ernment She maintained that since
women look at laws from a moral
point of view, and men from the bus
mess standpoint, the maternal in
stinct was necessary in making the
correct laws. And since women as
well as men are bounded by laws, she
said it was only right that women
should have hand in their making.
These arguments brought frequent
cheers from the audience, which was
chiefly girls. She concluded her lee
ture by saying that if women were
placed on equal ground with the men
in governmental affairs, laws would
be made for our state and nation that
would solve both social and business
problems.
While in Monmouth Mrs. Thomp-
son was entertained by the faculty
at Normal hall.
