AN OPPORTUNITY FOR THE JEWS. It I lnde?d a somewhat unique and unuanal offer that Jullu Roeenwald, of Chicago, haa made. In offering $1,' 000,000 to aid indigent Jews, made so because of the European war. Mr. Roaenwald lmpoae only one little con dition, which ii that f9.000.000 more must be raJs.'d for the same-purpose. As fust aa 1900,000 Is secured, he will give the relief committee $100,000. Mr. Roeenwald la president of Sears, Roebuck t Co., of Chicago, and the farmers of the Unlttd States who pat .ronlze this Immense mall order estab lishment, have made his great wealth possible. We wonder bow much of this 11,000,000 of Mr. Rosenwald's profits came out of Clackamas county. There Is n denying that It is better for the mail order magnute that give his money to this charity than to bold on to It himself. It is certainly a fact that the Jewish people really need the relief proposed. With the pros pect of an enlightened government in Russia, it may oe considered likely that the Jews will be treated llks other people in that country, and that they will be given the same opportunity for citizenship as the United States has extended to them. It must be ad mitted they are keen business men and make good and useful citizens. 50 Years Ago Taken from the Oregon City Enter prise. March 23, 1865.

Baseball On Saturday laM a few of the member of the Clackamas I the money i voted for the purpose. Had the county officials started years ago to build roads like the one to Parkplace and the road between Clackumna and Portland, the county would now have better roads than any other in Oregon, and carrying out such a program for the next ten year relieved of the maintenance of the Pacific highway, 27 miles of the hea viest traveled road in the county, there is no doubt but what all the main laterals will have been properly built. The prosperous farmer owns his own pleasure car, and what is more,! many of them, either personally or In a few week by the Clackama County School league. Thl trophy cup was won In the track and field meet held at Canby In 1916. There are five other similar cups and nre held by the following schools: Grammar schooKdchatlngl Pair-lay schitd.

WORDS OF PATRIOTISM. Next week 1b "Patriotic Week," un der the proclamation of Governor Wlthycombe. The governor's words in issuing his manifesto, ring with patriotic sentiment, which should be echoed by every local citizen of the state. His excellency urges the young men of Oregon to fulfill the obliga tions of our national citizenship by ral'ying to the flr.g, thus setting an ex ample worthy of our best traditions and Indicative of their certain con tinuance. The executive recommends that "Patriotic Week" be devot?d to the sober consideration of present day patriotism. He says: "Loyalty and patriotism are virtues which every true American is proud to possess and glad to express; it is plainly evident thnt the exitini? mili tary resources of our government are tota'ly inadequate for the proper pro tectlon of the country; we, as a Nation are opposed to the ma'ntr-nunce of a large standing army and Infinitely prsfer voluntary military service to compulsory organization, and; our best opportunity for voluntary patri otic service Is offered by the National Guard which today stands sorely In need of upbuilding if it is adequately to meet the requirements which may be nlacjd upon it; I believe that a spirit of patriotism not surpassed in fervor or intensity at any time in our national history, lives in the h:arts of the people of this great state of Ore gon, which only awaits the cal' for an expression." Dry Dock Another very desirable Improvement by the P. T. company it now on the tapis of this city. The drift is being removed from a portion of the company's property west of the great basin, where they contemplate put ting In a drydock. and otherwise pre paring for boat building.

Everybody, therefore when these roads have been hard surfaced, will be benefitted immediately, for 9th.

The mayor asked the council at the same time to make some liberal offer as an inducement for the construction of water works and the fire plugs on Main street. The message was well received, and the council passed an order offering $1000 per annum and for the free privilege to sell water to any company to construct or indi vidual wno will come forward and lay the mains, construct the works and put into operation. The auto wears out the old type of road that class of road wears out the auto, as well as other vehicles. The autoiat should pay his portion of the cost of hard surfaced roads. The autoist, under the proposed bond bill, will pay all the cost, maintenance and interest on the bonds if the peo ple will but vote for the bonds and it will be good business to do so.
