The newspaper of today that would
carry any influence with the readers
and hold those readers as subscribers
must not state deliberate untruths.
I care not what side of a controver
sy a man is on, if he is half a man he
has nothing but contempt for a sheet
that deliberately lies to give its read
ers a wrong version of a matter. That
man knows that sheet will throw it in
to him when occasion comes.
There were over 300 men present at
Saturday's mass meeting, and we
want to ask any man who attended
that meeting, be he friend or foe of
the county court, if the following, tak
en from the Morning Enterprise, is
true? Is there one man present who
will say it is true ? Will Mr. Eby him
self say it is true?
In speaking of the opening of the
meeting and of what the Enterprise
terms "unexpected developments"
that paper says:
"One of which was the hoot
ing from the platform of O. D.
Eby, chairman of the committee
appointed by the Live Wires of
the Commercial club to act with
Messrs. M. J. Brown, R. Schuebel
and S. L. Casto in the investigat
ion. Mr. Eby endeavored to obtain
the floor to state that the Live
Wires' committee would submit
its own report, being unable to
endorse the report of the three
men of the ruling faction, but
cat-calls, yells and abuse made it
unable for him to speak. Shortly
after this he left the hall and the
remaining faction ran matters as
suited themselves. After they had
presented their report, which was
done by Mr. Schuebel, Mr. Brown
withdrawing from the center of
the stage temporarily, two reso
lutions were introduced and ad
opted." 1
If the Enterprise did not have a re
porter at this meeting, then it was de
liberately duped and stuffed by the
party who furnished the above bunk.
If a representative was there then
he reported deliberate misstatements,
Mr. Eby was never on the platform
and he was never hooted from it or
from any other position.
There was not a cat-call, there was
not a yell of abuse.
He did speak, said all that he had
to say. The people listened to him. He
did not leave the hall soon after
this.
Here are the facts, and we ask any
man who reads the lines to ask any
man present at that meeting if this
is not a true statement.
When the meeting was called to or
der Chairman J. W. Smith stated that
before the committee reads its report,
O. D. Eby wished to muke a statement
and Mr. Eby made that statement. He
was listened to and heard by all.
There was never a word of abuse,
never a hiss, never a cat-call. When
Mr. Eby stated that the Livo Wire
committee had no report, then some
of the audience laughed.
In Sunday Morning's Oregonian
there were the same and more mis
statements and plain untruths. The
Enterprise office is the Oregonian's
correspondent, and under four-story
neaa lines "Hig Kow Breaks up Probe
Committee" that paper says:
At a meeting held two weeks
ago, charges against the County
Court were received in writing,
and since then it has been sup
posed that the joint committee
was Investigating these matters.
The two members from the Live
Wires say thoy had not been giv
en access to the complaints, and
practically had been forced from
all deliberation of the matter. In
the course of the meeting', criti
cism was directed against the
Live Wires on the committee and
O. D. Eby rose to protest, but was
hooted from the platform.
Mr. Eby, Mr. Loder, know these
statements are untrue.
Mr. Loder, asked by the Courier ed
itor if he made this statement, said he
DID NOT MAKE IT; that the com
mittee had full access to all the com
plaints made at that meeting, and the
publication of this statement was
false.
Mr. Eby and Mr. Loder were both
present at the meeting two weeks ago
when the complaints were signed and
given in. Mr. Eby wrote one of them
himself, according to dictation. He
knew as much about them as any
member present; he personally hand
ed two of them to M J. Brown. The
charge that they had not access to
these complaints is deliberately false
Ask either Mr; Loder or Mr. Eby if
they were ever asked for these com
plaints. Ask them if they were ever
refused.
Then again:
The Live Wires committee will
make the report on the matter to
the Commercial Club.
Mr. Eby publically stated at Satur
day's meeting that the Live Wire
Committee HAD NO REPORT TO
MAKE. Mr. Loder did not make any
investigation of the charges what
ever, and mr. Liouer will tell you so.
And this rank misrepresentaion of
facts, to carry out the impression that
Saturday's mass meeting would not
listen to the Live Wires committee is
dirty, underhand journalism.
When two big newspapers like the
Oregonian and Journal have reports
of the same meeting that vary so
widely in essentials, it is up to the
business managers of those papers,
and due to the readers of those pa
pers, to determine which reports are
true, and to find out if the corres
pondents are reporting facts or kneed
ing them over to suit personal and
political ends.
Readers in these days pretty near
ly find out the straight of matters.
You can't fool them with garbled re
ports. The day of news butchering
has gone by. In editorial columns an
editor may state his personal opinions
by the acre, for that is his space, but
news matters must be given straight,
they must state matters as they are
The Enterprise's devotion to the
gang is almost fanatical. It is a zeal
worthy of an honest cause.
The "blue sky" law to go into ef
fect in June should stop the Enter
prise efforts to sell people a newspap
er under false pretenses.
SOME DAY
A few days ago the house of rep-
resentatives ot Massachusetts by a
vote of 211 to 13, ratified a state
amendment to the constitution per
mitting the cities and towns to sell
necessities to the people.
At first reading you will say this
is a step toward things coming. So it
is, but read it again and look at the
utter ridiculousness of a state legis
lature having to "permit" the state to
sell the citizens of the state life's
needed products.
The "permit" shows that the state
has all these years levied a tribute on
its inhabitants for the benefit of the
commission men and the middlemen.
Now the state of Massachusetts "per
mits" itself to compete, permits it
self to buy and sell direct when the
controllers of necessities boost the
prices too high.
Well, reforms have come slow in
this tired old world for the past 50
years, but they are getting a gait on
now.
THE RECALL
Los Angeles started a municipal
free market where farmers could sell petitions are now being
tneir sturr airect ana wnere eaters throughout the countv.
Many taxpayers of Clackamas
county are up in rebellion because of
the great funds collected by taxation,
and the value received from that taxation.
Many think that the affairs of this
county are poorly managed; that
many of the expenditures are exces
sive and extravagant; that the coun
ty court runs things as it sees fit and
the people know of big contracts and
expenditures only after they have
been made; that laws are openly ig
nored in some actions; that big con
tracts are put through without com
petition or knowledge of the people;
that court favorites are rewarded and
others punished, and so on with any
number of complaints of favoriteism,
discrimination, extravagance and mis
management.

The one thing necessary to change
swallow that 'ne county court government of this
county is for the taxpayers to unite
on one man, organize in every precin
ct and go to it.
And the Courier believes this will
be the action.
WHAT OF THIS?
The following is part of a speech de
livered by Vice-President Thomas
Marshall. For some reason it was not
widely printed Editor.
"Along with general prosperity has
come a marvelous piling up of colos
sal private fortunes. The piling up of
colossal fortunes, supplemented by a
geenral diffusion of knowledge, has
made large bodies of people restive.
"The desire of the people is for
greater equality of opportunity and
enjoyment. More and more, men are
coming to the belief that socialism
alone will open up and guarantee this
equality.
"Have backward-looking and in
ward-looking men ever stopped to
consider what might happen to them
here in the great state of New York
if those who have not should take it
into their heads to make common
cause against those who have? They
talk about vested rights and in their
talks assume they have both un in
hcrent and constitutional right to pass
their property down from generation
to generation until such reckless de
scendants shall have dissipated it. Su
ppose a governor and a general as
sembly of tho state of New York
should repeal the statute of descents
for real or personal property and the
tatute with reference to the making
of wills on their deaths, ho wmuch
vested interest would any relative
havo in the property which fell from
their nerveless hands at the hour of
issolution? The right to inherit and
the right to devise are neither inher
ent nor constitutional, but, on the con
trary, thoy are simply privileges
iven by the state to its citizens."

There is a rumor current on the
streets of this city that E. D. Olds,
The Oak Grove Disturber" is seeking
the nomination of County Judge on
the recall ticket.
Mr. Olds asks the Courier to state
that he is not seeking and would not
accept any office within the gift of the
people; that he is not a candidate;
will not be a candidate for j'udge or
commissioner or any other office and
and would not qualify if elected.
This is plain enough and should kill
the rumor.
And in this connection the Courier
wants to add more.
They may say Ed Olds has a sore
spot; that he is a "disturber" is work
ing to break even and all that
Perhaps he is. He isn't the style
of a man to turn the other cheek if
man hits him; and I can't imagine
him heaping any coals of fire on the
head of the man who upper-cut him,
But at the same time if it had not
been for the work of Olds, the dis
turber, we would not have had the
present uprising against the expendi
tures and high taxation; we would not
have had any mass meetings or in
vestigations. We would yet be taking
it as m the past
Mr. Olds has done a lot of work
to bring about this aroused condition,
and there is no getting by it. He is de
serving a lot of credit, for no matter
what the outcome, it is a tight cinch
that Clackamas county will have a
