8 OK K(10NT CITY ENTEIUMilSR FRIDAY. APRIL 5. 15)12. CAUTION URGED IN COUNTY DIVISION DELEGATION FROM EASTERN 8EC TION MAKES PLEA FOR SEPARATION. VISITORS ARE GUESTS OF CLUB Report That They Are Dissatisfied With Proportion Of Tax Fund Given Them la Denied While nothing definite was agreed upon and the status of the proposed division of Clackamas County remains as It was, the best of feeling prevailed Tuesday evening at the conference of a delegation of residents of the Esta cada district and the Oregon City Com mercial Club. That there Is no ani mosity between the sections and the majority of the visitors have no com plaint against the way the money has been distributed for road purposes was clearly proved. Not one representatve of the Ore gon City organization declared him self unequivocally against the divi eioa of the county. All of them, how ever urged caution, a careful study of conditions and thorough investigation of the expense that would attach to the movement. It was pointed out that the taxes in the new county probably would be increased to a large extent, which not only would drive residents from the county, but would have a tendency to keep away per sons from the east President McBain, In calling the meeting to order, said that the visit ors were from the eastern part ot the county, and they would explain why they thought the county shou'd be divided. Henry Epperson of Garfield, the first SDeaker. said that he bad lived in the county47 years, and he believed the time had arrived when a division should be made. He declared when he came to this county Oregon City was larger than Portland, and business drifted in that directon. Develop ments, however, he asserted had made new alignments, and as Portland "had developed the residents of tne east ern sectioa of the county had build ed roads In that direction. The speak. er said that the proposed division would be mutually advantageous to Clackamas County and the new coun ty. E. Bates of Estacada, said the east ern part of the county had '"grown to manhood, and should be a county in Itself." "If you will let us go, continued the speaker, "We will soon have a fine county of our own. It will develoD rapidly." "Sooner or later the county will be divided," said J. S. McCurdy, a merchant of Estacda. "Aa effort was made sometime ago to lop off the best part of the county, and if you agree to our propostion no such effort will be made again. We ask you to put yourselves in our place, and I think in fairness you would agree to tne division. The proposed lines do not take away a great deal of valuable territory." W. S. Jellison president of the Esta. cada Bank, and Robert Duncan, also of Estacada, made -pleas for a division. They said the proposition was made in good faith and the eastern section wanted to part from the other part in eood soirit. They declared that the annual revenue of the eastern part of the county was such that It was Justified ii asking that it be allowed to break away. L. E. Bolfils, cashier of the Estacada Bank called attenton to Hood River county and told of its remarkable pro gress after the division of Wasco coun ty. The speaker declared that the proposed division of Clackamas county would only take away -$5,000,000 or 6,000,000 of the valuation ,and would make it the eighth In point of wealth instead of the seventh as at present. "Clackamas county would save a great deal in Jury expenses through the division," declared the speaker. "The railroad fare from Estacada to Oregon City and back is $1.75, and per sons from that city coming here are put to much greater expenses. The money thus spent would help pay the increased taxes in the new count;, if the taxes" were increased. The more divisions in a state the better it is for the state. Oregon has coun ties as large as eastern states." J. W. Reed, mayor of Estacada, said that if the division became a reality Clackamas County would still have four-fifths of the total valuation. He thought the county should be glad to get rid of the eastern section. E. W. Bartlett, a lawyer, exhibited a map showing the proposed lines. He deplored the reports that the resi dents of the eastern section were dissatisfied with the apportionment of the taxes, and said they were un true. He said the eastern section had a population of 8,000. "I don't know a single person In Eagle Creek who favors a new coun ty," said George Burnett. "Two years ago I was in favor of going to Mult nomah count-.y because I did not think w were getting our share of the road fund. I am satisfied now and I think all our people are." "I am staisfied with the old county," said Noah Stingley, of Eagle Creek. " I have lived here thirty years. We are beginning to get our just dues. We have not always got it or expected it, for we realized that it was best to have main roads built out from Oregon City. I think the main agitators for the new county came in on the new railroad. The road is there, and if they don't like the county they can get out on it." H. F. Gibson fit Barton, said the county was too large. Calling atten tion to the wonderful development he declared the time had arrived for a division and that it would be of ad- OWEN G.THOMAS BLACKSMITH I NG AND REPAIR WORK.

Oregon City viintago to Clackamas County as well as the new county. Adolph Miller, ot George, spoke along the same line. Gilbert L Hedges, spenking for Ore gon City and adjacent territory, s:ild that tho residents of this section would listen to all arguments and would un questionably make a fair decision. He congratulated the visitors upon their fairness in asking tho division, and thought if they proved they weere right there would be little objection "It Is up to us to give you fair con sideration," continued Mr. Hedges. "It Is up to yoil to convince us that you are right. If you have a good sensible proportion convince us that it Is mer itorious; convince us that tho new county would be self-sustaining, a.id It would not result In an Injury. You can make converts In doing this. If you have the goods we wll help you deliver them. J. E. Hedges urged caution. De claring that ho placed himself in tho position of a man living in the east- era section, he urged that the ex pense of creating a new county he given careful consideration. He call-" ed attention to the cost of schools, of a court house, and of roads. Don't think you will get anything you don't have to pay for," asserted the speaker. " They will cost you dear ly. As It is you have good roads from considerable of your territory loud n to Oregon City. If you got the division you will have to bill J new main roads and they will cost a great deal of money. And finally are you going to be better satisfied with yon officials out there than you are with those here? If expenses are in creased they may drive people away and keep people from coming In. I am not trying to argue that you an wrong, but I urge that you consiaer all these things, consider carefully what will be to your Interests." O. D. Ebv made one of the finest addresses of the meeting, and like the other speakers of this city Impressed upon the visitors that they should go slow. He called attention to the ad vetisement that had been given Clack amas County throughout the world, and hov a division would mean the new county would receive none of the benefits of the work. "But we mean to be shown,' said Mr. Eby lu conclusion. "There will be a lot of things to do, ond the question Is whether It is not better to be where we can all pull together." Mayor Dimick after telling of the great success of the Clackamas South ern Railway, and what it will do for the betterment of the county declared that the eastern sectioa of the coun ty had on several occasions received more than its share of the taxes. The mayor having reached the meeting after it started was informed that there was no contention regard ing the distribution of the tax fund, and that the visitors were prefectly satisfied with what they had received. The mayor, however, insisted that the reports that they were dissatisfied had been sent from Estacada and in sub stantiation of his assertion Mr. Mc Bain read a clipping taken from the Oregonian. Mr. Reed said that the er ror had been corrected in another Portland paper, and it was believed the report had emanated from sources opposing the division. "You folk have accomplished much," said Mayor Dimick. "You have do nated your time and money in build ing roads. In the past, however, the men who had the most did the least, and that Is why the special levy was urged so that all would pay their Just proportion." After the meeting a luncheon and re freshments were served. It is prob able that the clubs will name com mittees to confer regarding the pro posed division of the county. F. W. LEHMAN OF MILWAUKIE Republican candidate for nomination of REPRESENTATIVE If nominated and elected Mr. Leh man declares he will uring the terra of his office use his best efforts to promote a higher standard of effi ciency and honesty In public office and will oppose the creation of all useless commissions and offices and at all times do all in his power to enact those laws that will be for the best interests of all people, and op pose the enactment of all laws that would favor the classes at the ex pense and detriment of the masses. Mr. Lehman favors the direct pri mary law and Statement No. 1 as the same is now in force and desires the following words to be placed after his name on the ballot. Statement No. 1, application of business princi ples in the enactment of laws. Hr. Lehman thinks that ' the proposed Single Tax will be of paramount is sue and wishes to make known to the voters bis position concerning this proposed law, feeling that such should be the case before and not after the primaries. He wishes to state that he is not an advocate of the Single Tax law and that he will always and under all circumstances oppose such a law; that the taxation and assessment laws are at present infallible, he does not by any means contend, but that the proposed Single Tax law is the right law and proper solution he does not belive; and fur ther that such a law would be ruin ous to the county and state.

' , I LAFOLLETTE AND WILSON WIN STATE REPUBLICAN AND DEMOCRATIC PROGRESSIVES EASILY CARRY WISCONSIN NON-PARTISANS ROUT SOCIALISTS Big Majority Of Candidates On Re publicanDemocratic Ticket Victorious Caunt Is Slow MILWAUKEE, Wis.. April 3. Com plete returns from Tuesday a mulcipal election here show today a victory for Dr. G. A. Bailing, nonpartisan can didate for mayor over Enill SoUU'1, the Socialist Incumbent, by a plurality of 12.SC4. With a total vote of 74.326. the larg est in the history of Milwaukee, al most the entire nonpartisan ticket put up by a fusion of the Republicans and Democrats, was elected. The latest returns today from the presidential primary held throughout the state indicate that Senator Robert M. La Follette will have a solid dele gation from his home state In his fight for the Republican nomination for president at the national conven tion. In tho Democratic primary fight the supporters of Woodrow Wilson today claim at least 22 of the 2C delegates from Wisconsin to the national Demo cratic convention. They will not con cede the remaining four delegates to Speaker Champ Clark. The Socialist forces are undaunted by the defeat and are predicting vict ory at the next election. In discuss ing the results today. Congressman Victor Berger ,the only member of the Socialist party ever elected to congress, said: "This temporary reverse will serve to spur the Socialists on to greater exertions. Henceforth our campaign will be one of education, bringing the working class to the realization that Socialism is the only way out of a downtrodden condition." Mayor-elect Bading and the other successful candidates will be inaugur ated April It). Late returns show La Follette leads Taft by two votes to one. In the' Milwaukee city election 2C nonpartisan aldermen won out Elev en socialist aldermen were elected. The nonpartisan candidates for treasurer and comptroller were elected. Complete returns from Hie fourth and fifth Congressional districts show that Wilson elected four delegates there while Senator La Follette polled two votes to President Taft's one. The countine of the ballots for the presidential delegates is delayed be cause of the Socialist tickets in many of the important counties of the state. "This makes me second in the race," is what Senator La Follette is quoted as saying in a niesage from Wash ington when the result of the election became kown there. "I have receiv ed a message from my law partner saying that I carried the state by about four votes to one, and that a certain candidate' was not In the race at all. The vote did not surprise me, but the ratio did. The victory is all the more gratifying because I have not made a speech in Wisconsin for four years. "The Wisconsin delegation will give me a total of 3C. Watch things from now on.v Senator La Follette will leave Wash ington ior the est this afternoon. He is due in Chicago tomorrow, and will go from there to Nebraska, for a five days' tour of that state. The name of Colonel Roosevelt was not on the Wisconsin ballot. A few voters wrote in his name. Returns from the rural districts are coming in slowly, and it i3 doubtful If the entire vote will be counted be fore tomorrow. SENATE COMMITTEE Tl WASHINGTON, March 28. The right of Seator Lorimer of Illinois, to his seat In the United States Senate was upheld today by the special In vestigation committee, which decided that the Senate's vote sustaining Lorimer in the last Congress on sub stantially the same charges, barred any further proceedings against him. The vote was five to three. The committee not only adopted the "res ajudicata' resolution prepared by Senator Jones, of Washington, but oth er resolutions favoring the Lorimer contentions. The Jones resolution declared that the pending case already had been covered by the previous trial of Lor imer in the Senate and that again to plane the Illinois Senator on trial would not be in accord with the prin ciple of "res ajudicata." Another resolution adopted exonera ted Edward Hines, of Chicago, presi dent of a large lumber company, of any wrong doing. By a vote of 5 to 3 the committee adopted a resolution declaring that if there was any corrupt dealing In con nection with Lorimei8 election, Sena tor Lorimer had no knowledge of It. There was no conclusive evidence of a "jackpot" In the Illinois legislature, it was found. ' On the resolution declaring that Lorimer had no knowledge of any cor rupt dealings, Senators Kenyon, Ker.i, and Lea, who opposed Lorimer, re frained from voting. The committee vote on the reso lution follows: For Lorimer Dillingham, Gamble, Jones, Johnston and Fletcher. Against Lorimer Kern, Kenyon and Lea. It is practically certain a minority report also will be made from the committee and a notable debate is ex pected when the case reaches the floor of the Senate. MRS. CURTIS DODDS IS GIVEN FAREWELL PARTY ' Some of the friends of Mrs. Curtis Dodds, of Crystal Springs Farm, Twi light, tendered her a surprise party at her borne Wednesday afternoon. The entertainment was a farewell as Mrs. Dodds will leave April 16 for the eats, where she will visit relatives. The aft ernoon was spent in music and games and followed by refreshments.
