During that period hundred of saw' niilla were built in Orrgon and Washington by people who expected to make quick fortune and who would not have gone into the business at that time under condition which would have yielded only a fair, normal profit on the manufacture of lumber. It seem to be difficult in most instance to get away from the ixallrd law of supply and demand and there are no exception in tli it case. "The increased number of mills produced more lumber than the market could possibly absorb and the result wa the ruination of literally hundred and thousand of lumber manufacturer and logger in the northwest. "In the last six year over one-third of aih the manufacturer of lumber in Oregon and Washington have failed and their property ha been liquidated through the courts. This is an astonishing statement but it is backed up by the facts, "What Ijne county most needs at this time is not more swamill nor the development of more lumbering enterprises, but a fair degree of prosperity fur those already existing." F THE ENTERPRISE asks the Courier in all fairness and earnestness, who is it that the Courier ha for a pet candidate for the office of sheriff. It is impossible for any fair-minded person with an oppor tunity to see what really happens to suppose that the Courier risks its chance o! going to heaven by lying like a drunken sailor unless there is some favored and moneyed person back of it all. The Giuricr has charged Sheriff Wilson with every thing under the sun. He is declared to be a coward, when those who know him and w ho have watched htm at work upon a case, know that Wilson is not a coward in any sense of the word. His actions are assailed from every angle, when he is conducting his office with more economy, with better protection to the county and for the best interests of all concerned than anv sheriff of recent years. The Courier's attacks have been persistent and continuous. Almost ev cry issue of that paper since the present management took it over has con- LAX CAN BE CROWN IN THE WILLAMETTE VALLEY better than in any other place in the United State. Thi it not the declaration of a commercial club bulletin or a real estate dcilrr but of Frank C. Mile, of Washington, I). C, probably the foremost authority on flax in the country'. He M'd the other day at Eugene that flax grown near that citv wat the finest he had ever teen. In other word this government expert rank Oregon flax above the fiber produced in Europe where in nor mal time it i a great industry. I am not here to urge you to enter the industry, but I will say I be lieve it can be grown here better than any place in the United States," taid Mr. Mile. Mr. Miles is employed by the government to study the t!.ix industry exclusively. In parr of Michigan and Minnesota he ay flax can be grown, but that conditions are not as satisfactory a in Oregon. To emphasize the importance of developing thi industry, he said: "The importance of the flax industry can be realized when we consider that the United State annually import $3,000,(XX) worth of flax fiber. Thi fiber come from Russia. The supply is now virtually cut off. It 11 only a medium quality, while I believe the flax grown here i the finest fiber I have ever seen. "Beside the fiber the United State import 20,000,000 worth of linen, annually. Since the war our importation have been reduced and we are able to receive but a small quantity from Ireland." The Willamette valley has a new and great industry, one that will bring prosperity, build cities and develop the state. The flax of this section will, :n time, be recognized in the market of all the world as the standard for quality, if scientific experiments conducted so far count for anything. o Tha Orrifiin City Courkr U at II old trl.kt o( i.'rHi'n, of itintln Ha lit 'tH tha iili-0 It dor nt Ilk.

These conditions, coupled with the fact that we need more men in the harvest season than we do in the winter, causes a supply of more men than can be used during the winter months. As a result, charity is forced to care for them." The wisdom of Mr. Hoff's words cannot be doubted by any person who has been brought face to face with the conditions that exist in Oregon almost any winter.

The Bank of Oregon City THE OLDEST BANK IN CLACKAMAS COUNTY LOCAL DELEGATION RECEIVES ONLY PROMISES OF CONSIDERATION NEXT I! YEAR FROM STATE ROAD COMMISSION Hopresentatlve of Clackamas coun ty applied for state aid In highway construction Wednesday at a meet ing of the state highway commission, but received tho answer that tho funds for the year has been appor tioned but not definite promise that money for road work In this county next year Those who made the trip were Coun ty Judge H. 8. Anderson, County Com missioner Adam Knight. C. W. Risley and M. D. Latourette of the Oregon City Commercial club, A. King Wilson of Oswego, and S. A. Cobb, of this city. Another party of Sandy citizens, which included Paul Meinlg. Casper Junker and C. A. Bumbach, Interviewed the commission Wednesday in an unsuc cessful effort to secure state aid for the Improvement of the Bluff road In the Sandy district. The delegation from the county seat asked for $20,000 with which to open a new rand from Oregon City to New Era. The commission explained that all Ita funds for thla year were appor tioned among several counties of the state, and that it was not now mak ing promises to counties for a share fl of next year's funds. However, the members of tho commission gave every assurance that the request of Clacka mas county would be given considera tion when the time came to apportion tho funds. Tho county court deslrea to open a road with a water grade south from Oregon City, In this way avoiding the grades of the present route. The Im provement now being considered for a distance of 3300 feet north of New Era is a part of this program. With $20,000 from the state, the county court would be able to open a road, paralleling the Southern Pacific for the greater part of the distance, without delay. The year following the opening of tho road. It would prob ably be surfaced. It would be neces sary to do considerable rock work at several places. The Sandy delegation was told that the state commission aided in the construction of main traveled roads, and that the Bluff road of the Sandy district did not fall under this class. The proposed Oregon City-New Era improvement, however, la eligible for state aid. Inson und Ernest N. Iloliiiison, lots 1 lloailrlck, lot 8 of block 36, Oregon and 2, Hollywood Park; $C'J5.
