PATRONIZE HOIK INDUSTRY OREGON CITY, FEB. 14, 1902. You must register again if wish to vote at primaries or'at the June election this year. Tub road from Oregon City to Baker's bridge is again reported impassable on account of a slide. This is the usual winter occurrence and until the work is done right; it will continue to trouble residpnts of the sections beyond. Congkkbs is making itself ridiculous over Cuba and the Philippines. It is afraid that if the islands were accorded living privileges to trade with us they would injure'our commerce. If Importa tion of their products will be detrimen tal to us, why not give them full liberty to bestow their injuries on other na tions? Why i-h'.'i' ' Uncle Sam be the dog in the mmger t ''e Hands? A piuLANUiitoi'ivr is supposed to be a person who loves his fellowmen. But that is an old fogy definition., Carnegie accumulated his many useless millions by holding np (like a highwayman) his workmen, and now struts around the world giving a few millions to this school and a few to that, and lolheis a phil anthropist. Though a robber of the poor, of many thousands of poor .for years and years, he is lauded as a good man. Whit fools we mortals bel Tub timn for payment of taxes has been changed by law. If you pay half your taxes before tho tir?t Monday in April (not April 15th as the Enterprise had it) you have until fall to pay the balance, if not.a penalty of 10 pir cent is addod. If you are able to pay all your taxes before March 15th you get a rebate of 3 per cent. The time for pay ment of taxes in the past has usually been extended but the.new law prevents that, and you are now compelled to pay on time or have your property sold. "Tun farmurs of England are crying out against the increased burdens they are called upon to bear in the name of patriotism," writes a correspondent in Great Britain, of the American Miller. "Wheat-growing ia fast becoming a lost art with thorn. It does not pay at all. They Imvo to give the millers a ton of wheat for a ton of bran. If millers wore not gotlitigthoHi'top pi ices for br.in.thoy could not pos-ihly live out of making Hour, whii-h, imlu! f.u'o of the enormous stoi'luof American Hour constantly ar riviiu, dt'i'ios-vs the in irket lvilovv tho ,oMilility of a pmlll.

II mil! is a token of republican pros perity: According to iho annual report of the Mate factory commission, the em ployment of child labor in Illinois has increased ;'.) per cent in tho last your. In 1900 tho inspectors found 14,256 children tit work in tho factories, and in 1!I01, 19,S:'). And this item is no loss significant : Five hundred customs cloth ing workers, the majority of thorn wo men, have been locked out, and it is said the number will bo largely increased in the near future, as tho result of an or ganized movement to Btamp out union ism among the garment workers in Chi cago. A SQUEALER FOR RE VENUE . Two weeks ago the Courier-Herald published a statement, hacked by otlicial figures from the court hotm showing that Clackamas county was over ifl'JL.', 000 in debt on February 1st. Cheney liod 1 lie Courier-l ler 'd lied Cheney lied The C"Ui ier-licr.iU lie. I Is the substance of l'.rothcr Porter's ar ticle in his organ lust week instead of trying to disprove onr statement. His was but u bully's or fool's argument and is hardly worth', noticing, and besides his iguorauco ' lMta M n'"11''11'-- cvt u ' 1,0 ia tn-ing to cover up tho doings of his benefactors, tho board of commission- H" nays Cheney's prices were so tlmt tho board would not pay any aU-uiioa to our bid for theeouoty print- ing. Oar bid was bufone-thirrl of what his wiifl and lie got the job. What was the reason? We didn't belong to the g. o. p He claims the publication ol the tax list did not cot aa much this year as usual. It did not, but it is no thanks to him ; the sheriff collected so much of the tax that there was hardly anything left to publish and still the bill for publishing was over (450. His rates are 50 per Jcent higher than those under the Courier-Herald contract for printing. GOVERNMENT BY INJUNCTION. The following, from Judge Murray F. Tuley, of Chicago, dean of the circuit court branch.'spoken Nov. 30, 1901, to the Iroquois Club'in that city, shows how a.learned aud grave judge regards the judicial driftin'thiB country : "Have not the United States judges from the very oeginning been what Jef ferson declared them to be 'sappers and miners,' undermining the constitu tion of the United States? "It never has been considered any part of the duty of the juicia'y power to suppress riots, prevent disorder, or preserve the peace. The duty of the legislative power is to make the la, of the judiciary to interpret and expound it, and of the executive toenforce it. "The judge, without hearing the de fendant, ommands that is, decrees what he shall or shall not do in advance, and without a hearing enforces the per formance of the commands of the writ. Then he brings the defendant before him, tries him without a jury, adjudges him guilty of a violation of the com mands of the writ formulated by the judge himself in the absence of the de fendant, and sentences him to punish ment not defined by law, but resting in the breast of suc.i judge. "Not only does the amount of punish ment rest in the breast of the judge, but even the place where the imprisonment shall be inflicted rests in the breast of the judge. "Is not such a proceeding by the judge, government by injunction and a substi tute for trial by jury ?" I CORRUPTION MOST CORRUPT. The Review of the Week, an English conservative society weekly, says of the parliament of Great Britain: 'Tarlia ment is destroying its soul, the soul of the nation. The vital functions of financial control, of statesmanlike fore sight have disappeared from parliament. Look where we will, parliamentary gov ernment is not only decadent but dead. The best men of all nations refuse to have anything to do with it; and in England no less than elsewhere, lheto ricians, talkers, boodlers, fine gentle men, procurante philosophers, and Cir ce's rout of led-captains agape for hon ors or personal ends, are the people who man the legislature. The main function of parliament is no longer to check finance or to govern." The Oregonian of the 0th instant emphasizes this dis mal statement in its editorial on that "Blot Upon Civilization," the United States senate. To quote in part: "It is the cesspool of American politics. Thither repair thebrainlosi rich, the blackguard poor, the conscienceless rapscallions and the coarsest clowns that imported strains and native talents can produce . Such assininity on one hand a"d rascal ity on the other as our national life af fords, painstakingly erect themselves into an imposing arch into which as a keystone the United States tenate fits with miraculous precision. It has tied the nation's hands with Cuba, j fomented iu-urrectiou in tho t'hilinpinos, prostituted the army with its trailio in appointments, and made its list of e i ployes au instrument of sup pott to mab and reinalo stipendiaries ol its members." The above is a ll;tiug introduction to the following "prize poem" on"Tho Ore gon Delegation:" Our ileleg'itlun to nil,- t'lU nation Aud rereenl tills, our Kloiious stiito, Will long in! luenlioiwd, ami xUoiiUt be pensioned, linruot'tiilliwtl.for tlmtr wtt ami weight; It Is iistouiullim' that such renowned meu .should o'er be found la one ceutury, And more appalling to lur tlioiu oalling Themselves the Solous of eternity.

Hats, trinnninus and everything umttnety line smith's. below cost at Miss Gold- The Entfrprisp last week says that the Clatsop county tax was higher than that of Clackamas. Sich is not the can-, the county tax of that county is 31 mills, one mill lower than Clackamas. This still leaves Clackamas the "ban ner" county in the state in regard to high taxes just as we stated. POLITICAL NOTES. Alfred Luelling will no doubt succeed himself as county treasurer. Ha is a first-class official in eveVy sense and is entitled to a second term. County Clerk Cooper will probably be the unanimous choice on citizens ticket for clerk, as will J. E. Jack for assessor. Dr. Seamann is candidate for coroner on the republican ticket. Dr. Stuart and R. L. Holman are the other candi dates for the position. P'very person interested in good gov ernment should attend the meeting in Oregon City on Tuesday, February ISth. It will be decided at that time whether a straight democratic, citizens, or inde pendent ticket will be put up by those opposed to the republicin machine. A clean cou ity ticket, if it is supported as it should be, would no doubt win, there being many republicans that are not satisfied with the way in which the county affairs are being conducted and would like a new deal all around. Milwaukie and Clackamas precincts have more tban enough candidates to fill the republican ticket from top to bot tom. Henry Stevens for recorder will probub'y 1 e the only representative from this section on the ticket, with pos sibly a place on the legislative ticket. The republicans north of the Clackamas seem bound to have a commissioner, if i the number of candidates is any indica tion. J. R. Morton is up for renomina tion and seems to have the best of it, The other candidates from north of Clack amas are A. W. Cooke, W. H. Counsell and Jim Roots. , . The Philippine Mess. (Contributed.) Did you ever hear, do vou want to know How we govern the ignorant Filipino? We give bim freedom in matters of fun, But civic affairs we control with a gun. 'Tis strange that he is such a poor fool As not to submit to carpet-bag rule; But welcome at once without further de lay, The horrible force of carpet-bag sway, And take such freedom for what it is worth, Or lay bis plans to get off the earth . He had better begin to learn to behave In a manner befitting a toiling tdave. His plaintive appeals to old Uncle Sam, He ought to know, don't to much amount Won't be considered for a minute. While carpet-baggers know there is no monev in it, We, on Iheui 'tis said, we bought them tor gold, When they and their country forever were sold . We bought them from Spain, we bought them for gain, And their appeals for freedom are sim ply in vain. REALTY TRANSFERS. Furnished Every Week by Clacka mas Abstract & Trust Co.

Another ridiculous food fad has been branded by the most competent authori ties. They have dispelled the silly no tion that one kind of food is needed for bones. A correct diet will not only nourish a particular part of the body, but it will sustain every other part. Yet however good your food may be, its nu triment is destroyed by indigestion or dyspepsia. You muBt prepare for their appearance or prevent their coming by taking regular doses of Green's August Flower, the favorite medicine of the healthy millions.
