INVESTIGATION The announcement OF THE COURT, made In The En terprise that Clackamas County Is out of debt has taken .he wind out ot the sails of the men who have plan ned n ttaek on the members of the County Court under the pretense of an investigation of the county's af fairs. There Is In the hands of the County Treasurer money sufficient to pay off 11 outstanding Indebtedness of the county, and t'aat official willj i issue a call for 11 warrants some time this week. There are no warrants outstanding in the general fund. for If test shows mat me g, U said to be cheap and easy to bundle, accomplishes what the department savs It does, one of the serious prob lems of sanitation will have solved. been PROTECTING THE Ky a unanimous SMALL BORROWERS vote the Mis souri Senate has passed w hat Is com monly called the loan shark bill and the measure is now under considera tion In the House. Its object Is to prevent the robbery by usurious meth ods, of the most necessitous class of borrowers, who, having nothing for security, are compelled to consent to t Klnst the church, th church never could hava grown It haa. If cof ring ever destroys the church, the scoffers will he within the temple anil not without. The "Itetlred Methodist Preacher" la wholly right in his of Inlon that scoffers within the fold ro more to be dreaded than "the world." Yet he leave unanswered ques tion grow Inn logically, a conclu sion, out of hi own premise. The conclusltn he reaches, through Ig noring the question. I that both the church and "the world" are worse for the disappearance of the shout ing, groaning and other visible mani festation of sudden conversion, or strivings of the spirit with the pow er of darknes to make conversion possible. Ilia conclusion Is that such evidences of strife, accompanied by many victories for the powers of light over those of darkness, made the church militant and the church trl jnphant. Then the question re mains: how does he account for the change In the church which he claim has taken place? Can the church militant, and the church triumphant, have lost that dominion of the soul of man which it gained with the sword of the spirit, so that the fruits any terms that will yield them little ' of Us old victories are now turned to ready monev for food and shelter.

If the Courier Is too fine a paper to carry the college advertisement why does it stoop so low as to throw stop the movement. They are unable to take care of offerinKS. The greatest disappointment Is the lack of demand for seed.

' To my mind, the ow ner or proprietor . of an electrical appliance store ha an opportunity worth cultivation. i It Is natural for people to "follow I the lines of least resistance". To the I electric appliance dealer I want to ask whether you have.
