OPPORTUNITY
You voters of Clackamas county,
have the opportunity before you to
change the management of the coun
ty, and now it remains to be seen
whether you are all talk, or whether
you will back your play.
Every time you make an effort to
change things and then fail to get
away with it, you weaken your pow
er, and you might far better have
never started a protest than to start
one and fall down.
Six hundred voters attended a mass
protest meeting in this city April 12.
If one-fourth of these men would
jump in now and make this protest
good, there would be nothing to it
but a recall for the county court, and
a special election should not be nec
essary. But just registering a kick, and
leaving George to do the work,
won't get you anything.
Two years airo a recall movement
against county court officials started
in this county, but for the want of
funds for investigation, for lack of
newspapers to take up the taxpay
ers' cause and for want of men who
would work more than they talked, it
was abandoned. The entire movement
was left to a half dozen men to do,
They could not do it.
Today the taxpayers of this county
are openly and loudly rebelling at the
enormous funds collected and the val
ue received for this taxation.
They know the county could be run
for thousands and thousands of dol
lars less and the county get far more
for the money.
The great sums expended in this
county during the past four years is
astoundinir $714,048.81. What have
you to show for it? Take out every
bridge expense during these tour
years and then you have over one-half
million dollars expended on roads
alone.
And what are the roads i nClacka-
mas county ?
What has this $500,000 you fellows
bucked up, gone for?
Are your roads a bit better than be
fore these hundreds of thousands of
dollars were dumped in?
We need less politics, less favorite-
ism, less jobs. We need more work,
better management and a county
court that gets close to the people.
Here's your chance, but you, and
every man of you, has got to take a
hand in and help.
Leave it to the other fellow and it
won't be done, for the other fellow
may be leaving it to you.
Now we want to say to the taxpay
ers of this county who want to change
things, go to it and muke the change.
Everyone of you get in the work. Take
a day off. You'll get good pay for that
day s work when we get a new county
court you'll get it in bettor manage
ment at less expense. Fill up the pe
titions, contribute a little money for
the work, talk with your neighbors,
get on the job and stay on until you
get what you are after.
Do this und the recall will come
easy. If you sit down and just damn
it, it may not.
The Westcliff (Colo.) Tribune says
that a constitutional amendment will
be submitted to the people at the next
general election with a view of plac
ing newspupers under the control of
the public utilities commission. This
is certainly a novel one. It is claimed
that the big interests so control the
press of that state that it is impossi
ble to have popular movements
brought before peoplo in true light.
But would it not be an easier way to
Pbss a law making each newspaper
publish on its oditorial page the name
of every man who had an interest in
it? It would help.
No Self-Respecting Man
can afford to take CHANCES on being dependent in
his Old Age, or on leaving those dependent on him
unprovided for at his DEATH. Every man who works
for a living ought to lay aside a certain part of his IN
COME as an Lmergency Fund and a provision for the
future. A good way to do it is to have a SAVINGS
ACCOUNT.

By looking over the work and con
tracts in the court house it appears
that the county court believes in pat
ronizing Multnomah county,
In March, $9,062; in April $5,582;
this month $7,626.17 for timber crus
ing. It doesn't matter what the bene
fits. The point is it could have been
done for less than a fourth of this
cost and could have been done by men
who live in this county.
By the way, Editor Brodie, if you
keep on with your misquotations and
false statements, I am afraid that
during some of these hereafter day
you will go where ice is more needed
than salary to a climate where they
don t need stoves to fry eggs on.
Governor Johnson of California
should take a Colt's 45 and go gun
ning for the editor of the Contra Cos
tan of Richmond. Isn't this about the
worst:
In speaking of Johnsons, be
careful to make plain whether
you mean Jack or Hi. Do it to
please Jack.
A WRONG APPLICATION
They say no law can be framed
that it can't be beaten when things
shape up right.
In California it is proposed to ref-
erend the Japanese anti-resident law,
just passed, not with any hope that
the people will kill it with their votes
but with the one object, delay, to
stave it off for a eighteen months, in
the hope that some other solution of
the problem will work out.
This power was not intended to be
given in this law power of minor
ity but it is one of those matters
hard to keep out of a law that gives
people the right to make law.
WHY?
Senator Works, of California has a
scheme to adjust wages nd prices.
The big papers poke fun at and rid
icule the scheme, but you will have to
show me the place to laugh.
He advocates that the govern
ment regulate both prices and wages
of corporations doing an interstate
business, and that each state regulate
its own prices, wages and hours of
labor in conformity to the federal
law.
Where's the joke? Why can't prices
and wages be fixed by law and our
strikes, riots, tie-ups and other
troubles be ended?
Is there any more reason why law
should not tell a manufacturer he
should make a certain per cent profit
on his goods than a law that fixes
railroad rates?
Is there any reason why law should
not fix a man s wages?
Any reason why it should limit to a
reasonable profit mens necessities?
If there are, these columns are open
to any man to shatter Senator Work's
theory.
WILSON'S LOGIC
There is an old saying that smart
men change their minds, but fools
never do.
Some months ago a magazine ar
ticle related how W. S. U'Ren of Ore
gon City, called on Woodrow Wilson,
governor of New Jersey, and they dis
cussed the initiative and referendum.
Governor Wilson told Mr. U'Reri the
scheme would not do at all for this
country; would not work out as adver
tised, and ho was so thoroughly con
vinced. Mr. U'Ren told him it WOULD
work, because it HAD worked and
WAS working.
And now many months later, under
a Washington date of May 8, 1913,
we read this statement from Presi
dent Wilson:
"I can prove conclusively,
without the shadow of question,
that the initiative and referen
dum won't work, but the dis
tressing part of the demonstrat
ion is the indisputable fact that
they do."
DEAD MENS POWER
That extract from a speech of Vice
President Marshall last week,
which he "stated that it was only by
permission that a man was allowed
to hand millions down to his heirs,
will cause many a live brain to work
There are no pockets in shrouds,
man can't take his millions with him.
so he does the nearest thing. He wills
his fortune to others, and many times
he so loves that pile of wealth that he
provides it shall not be scattered
fixes it so the ones willed to can only
use the interest.
No man can make a million dollars
honestly, because life is not long
enough. He may accumulate millions
legally, but he can't do it honestly.
without robbing and making others
suffer.
When a man dies, he ends. Jf you
write a check today dated it ahead a
week, and died tomorrow, that check
would be worthless. The bank would
refuse to cash it on the ground that
a dead man could not write a check,
Now I know that my constitutional
friend, G. L. Hedges, will say this
will not stand, but here is predicting
that the time will come when law
will say a dead man shall not direct
the use of the money that he left to
heirs; that law will put a limit on the
fortune he shall leave, and that the
rest shall become the property of the
government and used for its main-
tainence.
And when we have such a law there
won't be any Astor kids inheriting
half a billion; there won't be Morgans
Goulds, Belmonts, Carnegies and that
class, for there won't be incentive to
accumulate the great fortunes for the
country s good.
And wouldn't our country be a
thousand times better off if it were
thus?
HOME TO ROOST
Oregon is being flooded with circu
lars and advertising matter, inviting
Oregonians to come to Western Cana
da and share in her prosperity, and
the advertising, sent out by the Albion
Trust Co., and indorsed in an open let
ter by Pierce Ellison, Minister of Fi
nance of British Columbia, says that
prosperity and the great emigration
there is largely due to the partial ap
plication of Henry George's single tax
ideas.
Last summer speakers pawed up
Oregon and the newspapers were fill
ed with dire prediction if Oregon took
the first step toward single tax.
The voters, frightened at Shield's
pictures of calamity, turned down the
proposition.
And now we have the provinces of
Canada, which adopted the taxation
reforms we turned down, using the
means to induce emigrants and Ore
gon farmers to come to Canada.
Well, its funny and serious as well
as funny. It is estimated by the labor
commission, that 200,000 pepole will
go from the United States into Cana
da this year, while Oregon has every
natural advantage, far better climate,
and millions of acres unsettled.
Here's the way the circulars reach
out to Oregon farmers, and as you
read it, think back to the time Char
les H. Shields, the paid patriot stump
ed this state to boom western Canada
In enumerating the reasons for the
great prosperity the advertising says:
But is also very largely due to
common sense in tax laws and
the immigration these induce. The
partial application of Henry
George's Single Tax ideas in Vic
toria and Vancouver worked so
Well that every town, every city,
and every province in Western
Canada is working for their full
adoption.
Here it is no longer a greater
crime to build a chicken house
than to rob one, as it is in every
county of every one of the United
States.
Men are not punished for
building homes, stores or factor
ies or for raising crops or cows.
Homes, factories, cattle and all
personal property are exempt,
and taxes are levied on land val
ues and natural resources.
This tends to prevent monopoly
and to increase wages profits and
interest.
And Oregon still assesses the man
who makes two bludes of grass grow
where only one grew, and lets the
man who holds idle lands for specu
lation off at half price.
GET BUSY WITH THE CZAR
(Aurora Observer.)
It seems probable that where there
is so much smoke there must be some
fire. Whether the county affairs have
been mauulministered we are not pre
pared to say; but when open and un-
efutod charges of the violation of the
aw is made against the highest ad
ministrative body in the county it is
well perhaps, that the people should
be given an opportunity to express
their views cither in approval or dis
approval as the case may be.
A county judge is no czar. He does
not own the office (nor even the court
house.) When the court gets the idea
that it is the whole thing in Clack i
mas Co,,' or anywhere else, that is the
ime for the people to get busy.
The Independent is glad to note
thut there is some liklihood that the
Southern Pacific will build big car
shops on the west side of the Willam
ette at Oregon City to employ per
haps 1,500 men. Everything that helps
o build up the towns between this
ity and Portland will make more
business for Woodburn. Remember
ing how the growth of the City of
Chicago has made the country for fif
ty miles south from that metropolis
continuous line of towns, we have
no doubt mat tue time win come
when there will be nothing but cities,
factories, orchards and gardens be-
ween Portland and Salem. Wood-

The assessor of Tilamook county in
answer to a reply Irom Assessor
Jack, says the timber cruise of that
county is the real desired goods,
while the taxpayers of Tilamook coun
ty write to the investigating commit
tee here to find out what means
Clackamas county is taking to got rid
of its county court.
Going out of the county to get com
mendations for county court proceed
ings is in harmony with going out of
the county to get county work done.
The people of Clackamas County
want county government that takes
the voters into consideration and it
pretty much looks as if they were go
ing to get it.
There is a Swede Congressman
back in Michigan, who has a right
idea. He has introduced it in Congress
and when public opinion pushes strong
enough it, or something on similar
lines, will become law. He says 75 per
cent of our country's clothing is ad
ulterated for no other purpose than
to make an unjust profit. And he has
introduced a bill that wearing mater
ial must be labeled with the quality
of goods it contains.
The Grange in state session at Al
bany last week, showed which way the
wind is blowing in Oregon, when it
went on record by a vote of 74 to 11
to abolish the state senate; resolved
in favor of preferential voting and de
clared against the school supervisor
law. And State Grange Master Spence
rather took the crimps out of Prof.
Shaffer of Eugene, when asked why
the half-mill tax for the common
schools was killed, he replied that in
his judgement it was killed by the
University of Oregon.
WHAT WE -PASSED UP
The march of American farmers to
the Canadian northwest keeps up de
spite the hue and cry in some quar
ters this side of the line to induce
them to remain. Government and rail
ways work together to make the new
region attractive. Fertile land that
grows large crops of grain san be had
on long time with easy payments. The
tax system is generally different from
that employed here. Improvements
are exempt from taxation and the
farmer is encouraged to plow and
build, in the knowledge he thereby
increases his income without mater
ially adding to his tax. This is sub
stantially the single tax which Oreg
on farmers rejected last fall. Enter

PETERING OUT
About one year ago Medford buci
ness men made it mighty hot for the
newspaper that advocated a public
market. And now the press dispat
ches are giving it out what a big
boom the public market is for that
city; how it has reduced the cost of
foodstuffs to the eater, and at the
same time paid good prices to the
grower, by cutting out middle profits;
how it has shut out produce and poul
try from California; widened the
range of trade and increased the pros
perity of farmers. And above all, the
dispatch says, it has increased Med
ford's share of business from the sur
rounding country. Farmers bring
their products for 20 miles. They
know they will find a market for
them, and while in the city they spend
the money for necessary articles of
clothing, hardware and the like. It
has increased the range of fresh food
stuffs in Medford and it has driven
the tin can out of the city.
Two years ago, when the Courier
gently hinted that a public market
would be good for Oregon City, we re
ceived such a chill that it brought on
bronchitis.
They said it would ruin business in
the city.
A year ago they told us the parcel
post law would ruin the merchants
of the country.
A few years ago they told us that
taking the duty off denatured alcohol
would raise the devil in this country.
They told Oklahoma and Texas a
deposit guarantee law would drive the
banks out of those states.
The people don't go quite so much
on scare stories as tney once aid.
They don't believe in ghosts nowa
days. SHUT 'EM OUT
Governor Johnson and the Califor
nia legislature have given the World
something to talk about, and in my
udgement it is much ado about a lit
tle.
It is easy enough for the state that
doesn't have the problem to face, to
stand back and criticise.
It is easy enough for a man in Ore
gon to denounce the action of Texas
in "posting" counties against negroes.
But send your kid to school and let
a Jap share his seat and see how
loud you would yell.
Live ii) Louisiana and have a negro
rent the next door residence and see
how quick you would want to stick
up the "nigger sign."
It depends on whether it is your
or the other fellow's bunion that is
smarting.
There are certain countries to which
we should absolutely put up the bars
against. The Chinese, the Japanese,
the Italians and that class of people
are no good to this country.
A Japanes will live on a dime a day,
and he will compete in the labor mar
ket with a free born American cici-
n.
A Togo will buy a rancid piece of
meat, a cow's head, or other meat
market refuse and grow fat on it. He
will take labor away from a white
man; he will stick a boom under a
business block or stick a knife be
tween a man's ribs striking from be
hind. Of the three, the meek Celestial,
who eats swallows raw, and can live
4 hours on five cents worth of rice,
is the most desirable.
But this is, or should be, a white
man's country, and the Governor is
white man enough to know it.
His action in California is for the
best gpod for Americans. It may not
be for the best good of big business,
and probably boycotts will follow, but
it is best for a state that has far too
little employment now for its work
men. The California law should have
been tighter that's its only fault.

FAST GROWING ORDER
Moosa Handsome Home Attracts
Many Members to Join Order
The hall of the Loyal Order of
Moose No. 961 of Oregon City, was
filled to its capacity Thursday even
ing of last week, the occasion being
the initiation of 12 candidates. The
initiative work was in charge of the
Portland Order No. 291, when two
special cars from that city brought
the members to Oregon City. They
were met by the local order at Eigth
and Main streets and over 300 mem
bers marched down Main street as
far as Fourth street returning to the
hall on Sixth street, where the meet
ing wa3 held. After the work of the
order was completed the remainder
of the evening was devoted to a soc
ial time and a buffet luncheon was
served.
The guests from Portland returned
to that city at a late hour.
The hall of the Moose is one, of the
most attractive lodge headquarters in
the city. The interior of the main
hall having just recently undergone
extensive repairs and was artistical
ly decorated for this occasion with
the colors of the order, red and white
predominating. Festoons of red and
white crepe paper were caught ir.
place in the center of the building
with clusters of electric lights whilt
the officers' headquarters in thit
room were beautifully arranged. At
archway was formed over the chaii
of the dictator, and over this wert
the letters "L. O. O. M." in red and
white roses.. A back-ground of simi
lar colors was formed of streamers,
making a very pretty effect. A canopy
formed of red and white was arrang
ed over the vice-dictator's chair, in
the centre of which was suspended a
heart of roses. The walls of the hall
are ornamented with scenes appropri
ate to the order, handpainted moose
roaming through the wilderness with
snowcapped mountains in the distance
and with them and the decorations,
which were in charge of William Rey
nolds and H. H. Bowers, the latter
who is a member of Portland lodge,
was the cause 'of much favorable
comment, among those attending.
The buffet room and also the bil
lard room were similarly decorated.
In the buffet room was recently in
stalled a handsome mahogany buffet
with a mirror and supported by heavy
pillars', this alone costing over $600.
Clusters of electric lights ornament
this handsome piece of furniture.
The two billiard tables are of the
latest design, being made of mahog
any inlaid with ivory. The walls have
been tinted a chocolate color and cor
respond with the furniture recently
purchased by the lodge. This room is
in the addition recently bum at tne
rear of the building.
The officers of the Loyal Order of
Moose are as follows:
C. S- Noble, dictator; D. F. Skeene,
past dictator; Ralph Sheppard, vice
dictator; Ralph Sheppard, vice
J. McDonald sergeant at arms; Guy
Reddick inner guard ; J. McDonald,
Calvin Price, inner guard; Pat Shelly

After reading of so many people in

naturally arises: "Is this medicine
equally successful in our neighboring
towns?" The generous statement of
this Milwaukee resident leaves no
room for doubt on this point.
Mrs. Clara E. Cook, R. F. D. No. 2,
Box 105, Milwaukee, Ore., says: "For
years I suffered from pain in my back
much more severe if I over-taxed
! myself or caught the slightest cold.
the kidney secretions were unnatural.
Doan's Kidney Pills proved to be just
the remedy I needed. They gave me
quick relief from all the troubles. A

Doan's Kidney Pills and they have al
ways given the best of results.. You
