The constitution of Oregon requires all State institutions to be located at the capital of the State. This reauire- ment secures to Salem permanently the State prison, insane asylum, reform school, and the institutions for the deaf and biind. All these institutions are now reasonably well equipped, and are making frequent additions and improvements to their buildings. | Ineducational advantages Salem is be- | bind no other city on the coast. There are five public school buildings, four of these of recent construction and exception- | ally creditable in equipment and appear- ance. Willamette 1'n|ven:it_v, the oldest institution of its class in the Northwest, attracts students fromi a wide extent of | country. The Roman Catholics have a school for girls, the Academy of the Sacred Heart. The Society of Friends have | recently established” a Polytechnic Insti- | tute in which it is designed to combine in- | dustrial and liter: training. Kinder- | garten work is fairly started underthe | guidance of an _association organized for | that purpose. There isalso a well managed | business college, Streets are wide and lined with beauti- | ful shadetrees; residence lots are large, and | there are two large public squares. Water and gas mains are laid throughout the city, and the streets are well lighted with electricity. In May, 1890, streetcar: | first operated by electricity. The | was started with two cars on two miles of | road. There are twelve miles of this road | well built and equipped, and the lines are being constantly improved and extended. | They even now reach out into the garden- ing and fruit-raising districts, and com- fortable rural homes- can be obtained | within cheap, quick and easy reach of the | business center of the city. Few people | realize how largely these modern inven- | tions improve the possibilities of a place | situated as Salem. Under the stimulus of these pleasaut, safe and rapid means of | transit there is practically no limit to its | growth. In a few years it will be hard to tell THE CITY HALL | where the town ends and the country be- gins. Families can so locate as to enjoy all the freedom of a country home, and | yet be within easy reach of the social life | and business advantages of the ci Though a half century old, Salem has 'iunt begun to be.

Colonel Isaac Trumbo Denounces the Huntington Fund- ing Bill WHY IT SHOULD BE DEFEATED. It Would Arrest Development and Subject the People to Any Toll the Monopoly Might Impose. Colonel Isaac Trumbo writes as follows to the Salt Lake Herald concerning the Southern Pacific and the funding bill: The development of the entire West is inseparably linked with the increase of its railroad facilities, Eventhe free and un- limited coinage of silver will prove almost useless to the commercial development and industrial freedom of the great and wealthy region lying west of the Rocky Mountains unless freedom from railroad domination comes with the other- desired condition. I am not of those who believe that all the evils of our industrial and commercial hfe are to be bapished by internal competition; neither do I believe it always follows that the more railroads we have the better we are off. There is mischief always to the public in the investment of capital in directions where the plants already in existence are equal to the performance of all the demands of trade. All the compe- tition in the world will not reduce the cost of production. It may cheapen prices, but it does not reduce the cost of produc- tion. Hence, over-investment is largely the same in effect as under-investment, and the public is punished in both cases. 1t cannot therefore be said that in the criticism now made by me on the railroad situation in California’and in all the States west of and including Utah, the demand is for competition independently of all ac- tual needs. : The statement that corporations are not interested in legislation in a Governinent like ours, which in degree undertakes to measurably insure a profit to the investor, must be based upon the presumption that most people have little knowledge or give litile heed to what the Government is doing in behalf of corporations. 3 The Central Pacificis a case in point. It is all the while asserted that the Central Pacific Railroad has little or no interest in politics or governmental affairs. Yet that it has con- trolled the politics of California and of Nevada for the last twenty years is as patent to those willing to know as anything can be. Every influence that can be brought to bear is ex- erted to protract its domination of the two States named. - It holds California in a grip | that the people have been unable o loosen; do | what they could. It has corrupted the State | of California, for by means of its political | power, and by the power of the money unlaw- 7.000, or about ten persons to the square mile; including the population of the towns and villages, about twenty to the square mile. Yet no one acquainted with | the ultural, horticultural and manu- | iacturing capabilities of this magnificent | city to sustain in comfort and prosperity and without crowding, a round half mil- lion of people. Multiply its present popu- lation by ten, and you will then on place it in position to begin that course of | industrial and social development to | which it is m certainly destined, For every man, woman and child, then, now | living within the limits named, we have room, work and welcome for nine more. Salem does not aspire to become a great commercial center, although her situation | on' & transcontinental railway and on the banks of & navigable river gives her easy access to the markets of the world, and makes it entirely possible for her to be come a distributing center for agricultural products and a center for arts and manu- factures. Paramount among our manufacturing establishments are the Salem Woolen- | mills (recently burned, but being rebuilt | with enlarged capacity), converting Ore- | gon wool into textile fabrics, agaregating | about $150,000 annually. The Salem Flour- ing-mills, with a capacity of 500 barrels | per day,and the Wallace Cannery, with | an annnal output of 25,000 cases. tories and two iron foundries. besides sev- eral smaller enterprises.

No merchant depending on the railroad for goods can afford to join in 8Ny moyement against it, for the reason that the road would discriminate egainst him and ruin him root end branch. No public officer, OF 10 man ambitious for office, would think of opposing it for the reason that’ it would spend its money and use its influence to destroy him, And now, while to the people of this great State the relief prayed for for yoars is Josible, we find the inhabitants of adjoining States in- different To the necds of - silver State, or elso aiding ‘and abetting this corporation’in the perpetuation of its power over California. In » general way the people of Utah.Idaho and Arizona are interesied in this Ereat ques- tion quite as much as the people ot California, for the reason that the growth of all this region depends on ability to get to the waters of the Pacific by some other line than either the Union Pacific or the Central Pacific. If this is doubted, let any Western man explain what hope for the West there is in the East except to borrow back the money that has been dug out of the mountains and washed from the sands of the West, and which we have pre- sented 10 the East as a_tribute for being al- lowed to be called part of this 1and of ours. df the present fanding bill is passed ina form acceplable to the railroads, then the people of the West will have fastened on them a domination that will destroy them and pre- vent the development of the country, and sub- ject its resources to the toll that the railroad masters may feel disposed to impose. If we Jjudge to what extent this toll will be imposed, Wwe have but to recall what has been done in the near as well as in the remote past. The disposition ever has been to extort. While there may be a change in the method of ex- tortion, in no wise will there be a change in the disposition to extort. The fruit-growers of the great State of California have seen the employes of the railroad walk through their thriving orchards as the fruit approached maturity and value it and estimate what it Wwould bring in the Eastern markete. Then the close cost of gathering it and plac- Ing it on the cars has been figured. Then the ditference between the cost of harvesting and the price the crop would bring in the market where it could be sold would be fixed on the cost of transportation. And the orchardist is compelled to submit to the extortion or see his fruit rot in the baskets or fall from the trees. The whole of the State of California is sub- cted 1o exactly this method of having the Tuits of its toil estimated. Whatever profit there might be between the cost of production and the selling value of the product the rail- {::‘exu with ready and relentless hand ever An excuse is offered for much the railroads in the West do—I mean that which is done by the Pacific railroads, At the time of tneir con- struction all conditions were unfavorable to the work. The country was undeveloped, the cost of materials was very high and the under- undertaking. Thousands of men who had nothing but keen intellects when the construc- tion of the Union Pacific and Central Pacific railroads were commenced have become great financiai guwen in the Nation. Out of the earnings of these people thousands of miles of other roads have been constructed and are the private proverty of the men for- merly poor. Investménts in other directions almost without limit have contributed to swell infinitely the fortunes of these men. The cities of San Francisco and Oakland are little less than so much of their private property. They own the street mnwai' system there. The coal that goes through California is from the mines of these men. Never hasa cent been returned fo the Government for the money advanced by it for the construction of these roads—neither in principal nor in_interest. The lands and their revenues have been diverted to the bene- 1it of those who built the road on the Govern- ment credit. And every effort to have the roads surrender (0 the Government has been met with the determined opposition of those Wwho have become multi-millionaires through the robbery of the people subject to the exac- tions of thie road. 1t is said that Mr. Hunting- ton is prepared to spend $3,000,000 in order to secure the passage of a bill that will leave the rajlroad in his control. Now, the building of this road has cost a good deal more than the plant is worth to-day. And the excuse for the extortionate rates in Vogue in the manegement of the road is that it cannot jayits bonds becanse the value of the plant has gone down and it cannot meet the competition of less expensive roads, nor can it aflord to give the benefitof cheaperrates to those compelled to trade with it because its great cost makes I i plen and the furtber p! cidental and Other interests have zrown up about the road which are innocent of any offenses against the Government. it is held that the road should be permitied to remain in the hands of those that began the work by & system of robbery and who have never been able to escape theitch then created and gratified to a point where no limit can be fixed. The Credit Mobilier scan- dal bas passed largely from the public mind, but there was such a scandal connected with the construction of the roads—a scandal which only touched the very edge of the iniquity, since there was hardiy & contractor or an em: Floye of the road, in any capacity, that in one orm or another was not a partaker of some of the benefits of the wholesale robbery that has marked the full existence of the road,and which also largely corrupted the people of the whole country through which it has been ope- rated by its open purchase of men, by its domi- nation in poiitics, and by the exampie of great Tespect and power and place bestowed upon the most notorious of publie corruptionists. Great powers were placed in the hands of these men which they have prostituted until & whole State is under their feet. They punish all that will not serve them, and bestow the rewards upon those that do serve and protect them in their infamies. Time and again men have been sentenced to death as traitors to thefr country for offenses less than half as great as these. 11 it were simply the question of vermitting these men to enjoy their profits without per- petuating a wrong on Calitornia it would mat- ter little what was done with the road. But California is to be kept under a domination that has already made her pay for the road time and agein in the unlawful rates charged for the handling of her natural products and by the exorbitant charges for articles thet had t0 be imported by ‘rail.” But that she has a great stretch of seaboard which has compelled concessions the State would yet be almost as backward asparts of Alaska ‘and her citizens would be all ‘but the absolute slaves of the railrond-owners and their property as much subject 10 their tolls as the fruit-raisers now in that State and as the property of serfs was under the old feudal barons. This is a question that involves the liberty and tbe property of the people of the most blessed State in the Union, so far as natural Tesources are concerned. It involves the de- velopment of all the wide region west of the Colorado line. All those to be effected by the result of the passage of such a bill as Mr. Huntington wants, should make common cause with California and Nevada, that the people may be freed from the infamous con- trol of the unscrupulous men now determined to maintain their power by the purchase of the passage of such a bill as will suit them. Every Congressman or Senator who votes for any measure receiving the support of Huni- ington may be ‘Jecognized as wearing the collar of that rord and of having had financial assistance from the corruptors who by past robberies can now purchase a con- tinuation of the power to continue a system of railroad extortion in tne future end of the es- toppel and development in the reilroad direc- tions for & long future.

Every Western representative of the should’be made to understand that his al life and the respect of the community are the prices he will pay for failing to vote so as tosecure to Caiifornia and Nevada that lib- erty which is impossible while tae present high-handed corporation domination shall continue. The only hope for the opening of a commer- cial highway to the Pacific Ocean from Utah {s through the defeat of the measure so earnestly desired by the Central Pacific magnates. That | money will be spent lavisnly and, that the peo- ple will be made to pay it back as a_price of their temerity in_trying to secure both politi- cal and commercial liberty, may be assured. The people of the whole Nation should be in- terested in this grave issue. No Nation is free whero part of ils eitizens are in_slavery, whether in fact or in name. And the wrong that has so long been practiced upon Califor- nia is 4 Wrong inat may come to the citizens of any other State at any time by corporation combinations. A blow at the bare-faced de- mands for the power of continued robbery made by the Central Pacific is & blow struck in behalf of the rights of people everywhere. It is & step in defense of the right of the fathers and mothers of the Nation to haye the ex- ample that only thieves are successful no longer temptingly spread before theirchildren. ‘The young life of the Nation is being corrupted Dby wealth and political preferment, and all these questions are directly involved in the issue now between the people of the West and the Pacific railronds.
