From a Prominent German.
Editor Couriku: Please allow some
space for the following lines :
To the Editor of the Enterprise, Ore
gon City. Sir: In writing your article
against the Germans last week you cer
tainly did not know where the wind
blew from, but we Germans infer that
you are mad about that new German
paper, the Clackamas Post.
If the Germans of Clackamas county
would like to organize a political club,
do you imagine we need Portland Ger
mans to help us? If we ever should
feel like organizing we would not need
anybody to help us, no, not even you!
lour article was nothing but a mani
festation of venomous hatred against the
Germans.
The officers of the order of Hermanns-
8oehne came to Oregon City fro 11 Port
land, to start a branch lodge 111 this city,
for the purpose of extending assistance
to its members 111 case of sickness or
accidents, and the rules of the order
exclude politics entirely.
Years ago, before we ever thought of
you, there was a Gorman club here, with
about 150 members. At that time I was
the president; but I found out that un
less political matters were excluded, we
could not be very strong. We, however,
excluded political matters, because we
we considered ourselves above the
odious manoeuvers of the politician.
But you may rest assured, that if we had
seen fit to organize a political body, we
should not have brought pur political
medicine Irom you, because it would
have killed us. However, as long as
your political influeno is not stronger
than it is at present, there is no need
for anybody or-tnizing. And, now, Mr.
bMitor, as regards your peculiar views
on ihe incompatibility of German organ
izations with patriotism, let me tell you,
they are antiquated. 1 have been in
Oregon City these 1" years, and I know
that although the German's do occasion,
ally drink a glass of Weinhard's be?',
they are as good patriots as you are aim
better. You may rest assured, that if
this country should ever be in danger,
we Germans would stand and fall like
men by the stars and stripes, while surh
men as you would probably act the
bravadoin vour ollice.
Know, Mr. Editor, that the first and
most sacred rule of a good citizen is, to
keep the peace. You, however, make
yourself obnoxious. J.K.
