The company, met his request in the best spirit possible. Residents Are Responsible. People living en the line of this race, says Inspector Long, are responsible for the condition of pollution in which the raee was found. Resfdents seem to think the race a dumping ground for all sorts of refuse and have no sense of sanitation and publie safety. The inspector said that sueh people are "the shame of a city." Furthermore, to prevent a repetition of wanton acts, Inspector Long is going to have the race patrolled and anyone caught dumping trash, cans, dead animals or other refuse therein will be haled before the recorder's court and summarily dealt with.

The principal reasons for wishing to keep" IB colored people from establishing a church in south Salem, as ex pressed by those present at the meeting last evening, were that if a church were established there, the colored people would flock to that part of the city and encroach upon the present Tesident with results detrimental to property values end the desirability of that part of the city as a residence district. Many were heard to express them selves as desirous that the colored race ie allowed to live their lives as suited them best as long as they avoided the districts that are at present quite thick ly settled by white people. f.lAfJ DISAPPEARS TiilEd ViAUTED BY OFFICIALS F.

EAST SALEM DEPARTMENT WILL NOT BE TO MAKE SO MANY RUNS In order that the people of Salem may be able to locate fires more accurately from the fire whistle, Fire Chief Mark Savage has redistricted the city the following manner: The First, Second, Third and Fourth wards of the city will each be divided into three divisions. The first division of each of these wards will be all the territory west of Church street; the second, division will be all the territory lying between Chureh and Twelfth street and the third division will be all the territory east of Twelfth street. The Fifth ward will be divided into two divisions, the territory lying be-1 tween North Mill eijeek and Hood street constituting the first division and all that north of Hood street the second division. The Sixth ward will be divided, into three divisions, the territory north of 1 street constituting the first division; from.D street to State, the second division, and south of State street the third.

The Seventh ward will be into, two sections, all west of High street being known as the first, and. all cast of High street as the second division. Alarms Given Twice. The alarms will be given twice after the warning whistle is blown. The first whistles after the warning whistle vill be the ward number and the second bunch, vrill be the division of the ward.

By noticing the whistles one may then be able to locate- the lire, at Jeast approximately. One of the things that the new cmer will inaugurate will be a change in the method of disposing of the East Salem department when there is an alarm. Heretofore the East Salem department has been, required to report at the eity hall at once when an alarm came and there, hold itself in readiness until the department from the main station had returned. the fcast saiem de partment will be held in readiness at its own station for at least fifteen minutes after an alarm has been turned in. Greater Efficiency.

It is thought that greater efficiency can be. attained by this method than by the former for under the former system the East Salem department not only, had, to make the run to the city hall each time there was an aiarm, which. left both stations without any one to answer a. possible call between the time the East Salem depart ment, left its station and the time when it. arrived at city hall, but in the event that a fire occurred anywhere in eastern part of the city in that time, it would be required to mane a long uphill run immediately after making the run down, TO IMPORT.
