L-i inninvi nicnt. that is. as to
fimc ot leaving l'orllaruJ.
v, ii ni. is the most incon
nt hour that could have
ossitily Iwen srh'Cted. One m
,'ancc "f the inconvenience of
h time o IrJivinir roruanci is
ih fart that neveral auto loads
,,f people have tfono to I'orllun
it.'!v from St. Helens to witness
heball ifaines. for it is impos
sible for a person to tfo to a Kame
:n I'ortlaiul and then catch the
rain out at that hour. Then for
i business trip the time for leav
nit is at least an hour too early
IV matter of chaws, too. is
exorbitant, three cents a mile
fur the amount of trallic from
Uuulton and St. Helens to Port
'nd. The people of this com
munity should rise up and pro
test auuinst such charges. No
more serious draw back to' the
ilevelopnient of the county exists
than the unrt a-ionablenesB of the
railroad company in its dealings
ith the people. The needs and
wants of the people are never
considered by the company, and
never will be until they are
forced to tlo so. There is no
reason in the world w hy an elec
tric line does not extend from
Portland down the river 110 or -lo
miles, or say down as far as
Rainier, except that the same
company that operates the rail
road also has control of the elec
tric franchise, and just so long
as they can continue to get the
business, make exorbitant
charges and keep out opposition,
no electric road will reach out
this way. In no other direction
from the city of Portland is
there to be found a better or
more productive territory than
down this way. Why wouldn't
it be a good idea for the people
of this community get together
ami kv what can be done towards
Kctting lx'tter and cheaper
service?
The Workmen's Compensation
Law as passed by the last legis
lature has Ix-en referred to the
people and will be held up until
November, when a special elec
tion will be held. There seems
to be no doubt of the passage of
the bill by the people, and yet
there is considerable opposition
to it. That the bill should be
come a law there is no question,
as it provides for the taking care
of injured workmen and their
families in such manner as no
other method has ever done. The
law has been tried out in otheH
states and has proved successful.
It will do away with the so-called
ambulance chasing lawyers and
will provide prompt relief in time
of need, and much more relief
than was ever furnished by the
"Id method of insurance settle
ments and long druwn out litiga
Kation. Now that the question
i to bo submitted to the voters
of the state it behooves every
one to get a copy of the bill and
"tudy it up so that a full and in
telligent vote may be cast.
