Notary Public for Oregon
Is public office a private snap in
Clackamas county? ''
The only way to change conditions
in this county is to change the condit
ion makers.
When Clackamas county will only
spend money when it is absolutely
necessary, and when it gets a dollar's
worth of benefit for the dollar, then
will we have lower taxes.
Taxes will be a lot lower in Clack
amas county when we get men man
aging it who will give it the Bame
honest management they would a pri
vate business. And they won't be low
er until we do.
"Clackamas County is out of debt"
but there seems to have been $163,000
lost somewhere in the shuffle. Isn't
it mighty peculiar that this matter of
the most importance in the cnarges
has no explanation whatever ,'
Charles W. Morse dies hard. Mr.
Taft pardoned him so he could die
outside prison walls. He has already
got a controlling interest in the Hud
son river steamship company and is
after the Long Island Sound line, lie
a live one for a dying man.
Aside from a personal attack on the
Couner editor, George C. brownell
doesn't make any attempt to answer
the questions asked, him of county
court deals. Nobody makes any at
attempt to answer any questions re
garding court charges. It hasn't been
the custom in the past to have to
explain, and they don't understand
this insistence.
Instead of the danger theorists
have expressed that the recall would
be invoked too often, it looks to us as
if in Oregon it has not been called
into play naif as frequently as it
should have been. People generally
appear to be afraid to tackle the
thing, as if it were loaded. Wood

It is the sincere wish of a lot of
Oregon City residents that at the
special meeting of the council this
(Wednesday) evening the elevator
matter may be definitely settled
in some way that the contract may
be let and the matter finally settled,
or the deal called off entirely. It has
been nearly seven months since the
people voted this bond issue, and the
waiting and wrangling have become a
city joke.
Comes now doctor sustained bj
the French Academy of Science, with
the claim he has a vaccine that will
absolutely prevent typhoid. His back
ing is the highest, and his proofs
look good, but the American people
will go very slow on it, after the
Freidman affair. The French physic
ian says his vaccine will absolutely
prevent typhoid, can be taken without
any danger or inconvenience and is
inexpensive, and that he has as proofs
44,000 people on which it has been
tried with full success.
It is now but a question of time, al
most to be measured by weeks, when
he great Panama canal will connect
the two oceans and shorten ocean
travel thousands of miles. And then
we will see thousandcs and thous
ands of Europeans unloading on the
Paoific coast. What the result and
conditions will be we can only guess.
If the ships bring the needed class,
the land clearers and home makers,
you will see Oregon grow like a mush
room. But if it brings the vagabond
element we will soe trouble and lots
of it, for Oregon only needs and has
use for home makors.
"DEFENSE"
There is a man in this city who
has been here but a short time
yet who sets himself up as the
oracle of all wisdom and the aug
ur of the future. His mission is to
tear down and to find fault, to
impugn the motives of men who
have been prominent in local af
fairs for almost as many years
as the stranger has lived. He is
unfair in his statements, biased
in his reasoning, obcaecate to his
own pettishness and anile in his
continual perversity. Pretending
to be honestly criticising city and
county affairs, he is in fact either
being sadly led astray by dis
gruntled friends, or else is capi
talizing his own iconoclasm.
The above was written by the new
editor of the Enterprise a man who
is not even a voter, and who has liv.
ed here less than three months.
He says we are unfair in our state'
ments. Why doesn't he state
WHERE we are unfair? Why doesn
he take one single statement and
prove our unfairness? Calling a man
a liar is no argument, but PROVING
him one is. Why doesn't the Enter
prise get down to specifics and cite
at least ON ft instance where this pa
per has been uniair
Repeatedly we have stated that this
paper was open to any voter to ae-
fend the county court and to prove
our charges and the . charges of
others groundless. Not a line
has ever been offered, and men who
reason know why THERE IS NO
DEFENSE TO THE CHARGES
Brownell can't make any; the county
court itself can t make any.
The charges were made weeks ago
charges of extravagance, mismanag
ment, favoritism, law violation. Not
one of them has ever been nailed or
specifically denied. Brownell says
Bosom Friend Bob is honest but he
may have made mistakes. That's all
the defense there is.
The Phonograph says we are un
fair, yet doesn't say WHERE we are
untair. IT (JAN 1 .
it says we are biased in our
reasoning, but doesn't say HOW or
W1IEKE. We just A Kb), that's all
and you mustn't question, but just be
lieve.
Here is one charge the Courier will
not deny. It says the Courier editor
is "obcaecate." We may have it; not
under this name. If the Phonograph
will translate this, reduce it to En
glish, get it down where a physician
can understand it, we will go up to
ur. Mount and see if we have it. In
the meantime we will trust in God
and keep our fingers crossed.
The Courier may not be right in
all it advocates, but it IS honest, and
tne man doesn t live m Oregon that
can sup it a piece oi money.
Where we are wrong, we ask read
ers to point out, and when they can
show us we ARE wrong, we will ad
mit it. If we make a charge, that is
proven false, we will retract with
just as much prominence as we made
ii.
But denial is not defense; ridicule
is not reason; whitewash is not wor
thiness.
Thero has never been a line of de
fense of the charges made against the
county court as yet; and until there
s deiense made, until the county
court can come iorwara with some'
ining stronger wan woy's "exoner
ation" and Brownell's bunk, the vot
ers of this county are going to think
they have had deals sliuDed over
on them that fattened the individuals
at the expense of heavy taxation, and
they are going to think this paper is
trying to give them a square deal.
unee more, Mr. Enterprise:
Explain that court house iob and
tell the taxpayers where that $7,000
above the architect's figures, went to.
Explain where that $165,000 went
to over and above the previous county
court's expenditures and receints on
the same basis.
Explain why that timber cruisinor
contract was slipped over and given
to an out-oi-tne-county timber com
pany, when it could have been done
for thousands of dollars 'ess by Clack
amas county men.
Explain why a free perpetual fran
chise was given to a Portland gas
company for all of Clackamas countv.
and a franchise for a new railroad
from Portland, to Stephen Carver denied.
Exnlnin whv bvidirn nftor tiri.l.ru
contract was let to the Coast Bridge
Co., without advertising, without competition.
I hose are the matters the taxnav-
ers want to know about.
Explain these, then vou mnv mil
the Courier editor an I. W. W.. a Cu.
ban, a liar or any other old thing, and
it may stick, but until you do. we've
got you and the people are with us.
THE HUNGER CLUB
Capital and labor are at it again
in Chicago.
It's another little civil war our
government winks at and dares not
take a hand in.
Union marble laborers on a bank
buildiner went out because the contrac
tors put s,cab labor on the job with
them.
Then the Building Trades Associ
ation. emlpoymg from twenty
thirty thousand men on construction
work, naid oir every man ana ais-
charged them.
They have put on a "starve out'
lockout. They propose to force bi
hunger the men to leave their unions
in order to oDtam wont, iney win
niot attempt to fill places with non
union men. but rather to starve a un
ion man until he will quit his union
and become a scab.
"We can stand it longer than they
can." says money.
"We have got to beat them out at
this starvation game, or starve lor-
ever afterward," says union labor.
And this civil war will now go on
tolerated bv our government.
When two men have a difference
thn courts arbitrate and settle it.
When an army of men have a fall
out our courts tell them to settle it
themselves.
Won't we ever get a little common
sense pounded into us, and have a fair
tribunal to settle such labor troubles
as at Chicatro ?
It's a horrible thought to me that
hunger and want should be used to
force men to yield. The horror of it is
that the wives and babies must suf
fer to make the husbands and fathers
foreret their obligations and become
scabs.
And capital suffers by reason
lost contracts and profits.
It's a tough proposition to starve
a man into submission for he's a dan
gerous man and has mighty little re
gard for his country in tnat condition.
It's a mighty tough proposition to
tell a contractor he shall not hire who
he pleases to work on a contract he
has taken big chances on.
But it's a lot tougher to tell these
parties to fight it out, that the strong
er wins and win De called rignt.
This biff old, rich world has an ab
undance for all, and men should not
have to starve and fight for the
risrht to live and work.
How much longer win our Doasteo
civilization tolerate "hunger" lock
outs" How much longer will the
hungry men stand for it?

AGREED
Ston the clock I The Oregonian and
W. S. U'Ren are agreed! The Oregon
ian sustains U Ken!
The newspaper was caught in its
own trap and had to, but that doesn't
matter. It really does sustain Mr,
U'Ren on an issue.
A few davs aeo the Oregonian out
lined a bill that should be made law
to safesruard the initiative and ref
erendum from such moves as is now
holdinsr up the compensation law.
The Oregonian editor, had torgotten
recent legislative history, and Mr.
U Ren mailed that paper a copy of
House Bill No. 365, drawn by U'Ren
& Schuebel, introduced by Represent
ative Latourette, and killed by the
house judiciary committee. This is the
bill:
Before beginning to solicit sig
natures on any initiative or ref
erendum amendment or a gener
al law, or for any local law for a
county or district composed of
more than one county, the person
committee or organization pro
posing the same shall file ten
printed copies thereof with the
Secretary of State, and also the
name and postoffice address of
the person, the members of the
committee and of the organizat
ion, and the amount contributed
or promised by every person
contributing or promising to con
tribute towards paying the ex
penses of such initiative or refer
endum petition and campaign for
the measure.
This bill was killed by a Re
publican legislature whose members
are now yelling their throats sore be
cause of the weak spots in the ref
erendum that permit hidden assas
sins to knife and hold up needed and
worthy legislation.
At the time this bill was before
the house the Oregonian wasn't burn
ing the air with editorial support of
but now, smoked out, it has to
line up and give U'Ren & Schuebel
this credit:
We are to assume that this is
the U'Ren view of the safeguards
that should surround any initiat
ive or referendum petition, It is
also the Qregonian's view. It is to
be regretted that the recent Leg
islature did not accept at least
so much of the Latourette bill.
If the law made it imperative
upon the Secretary of State to re
ject all the initiative or referen
dum petitions unless the facts
and circumstances of their inspir
ation are fully divulged, the skul
king figures behind the referen
dum on the compensation act
would be driven into the light;
or there would be no such referendum.

IF FARMERS SHOULD STRIKE
Say, wonder what would happen if
the farmers all over the United States
would adopt manufacturers' tactics to
secure legislation? You know if they
don't get what they ask for they re
fuse to play or work, ohut up their
shops and squeeze the country into
submission.
Suppose all farmers would cut pro
duction one-half, what then? Of
course it is impractical and wholly
unworkable without an oriranization
far more thorough than any in the

uioiuijr ui it(iiv;uii.uic; uui, just sup
posing such an organization existed
and such a scheme to coerce legislat
ure so farmers could hold up the
price of their products, was put in
operation. Wouldn't it be awful ? Mer
cenary, revolutionary, anarchistic, un
patriotic! Well, why isn't it just as bad for
steel, woolen, shoe or other manufac
turers to attempt to coerce legislat
ion for their benefit? Chieftain, En
terprise, Oregon.

But todav the voter doesn't care a
darn for those little crosses of for
the men who make them. He has his
own ideas of policies, politics and is
sues, and he doesn't care a darn who
knows them.
The day of poltroonery has gone by
in this man's country, and with it the
slavery to another man's opinions.
The American people are not im
pervious to advice and leadership, but
us a cincn place Det tnat the man
who leads them has got to' be a big
General and able to get away with
the job.
But the day has gone by for the
petty Dosses and the individual game.
Dog-trotting behind band wagons has
gone out of American politics and the
free-born American citizen is going to
run things.
These new conditions do not mean
that leaders and organizations must
go, but rather that the organization
must represent and leaders lead.
Without organization and leadership
the people are a mob and but weaken
the cause they stand for, while with
an organization and leadership of

a power no machine bosses dare stand
in the way of.
WHAT?
Did you ever stop to think that one
oi the several reasons for high prices
of everything you have to eat and
wear is because we have cheap mon
ey money that doesn't buy much?
Twenty-five years ago you could
take a dollar to a grocery store and
buy an armful of groceries, while to
day you could prettiy nearly brine the
dollar's worth home in your pocket.
In those days a man would take care
of a good-sized family on a dollar a
day. Money came slow and went
slow. It was high priced money and
oought a lot.
Easy money breeds extravagance.
Following that panic from 1892 to 18-
96 there came a reversal of condit
ions, and for years we had prosperity
so thick we fairly had to dodge it.
Labor was in great demand. A man
didn't have to hunt for a job, the job
hunted him. He was the much-wanted
labor, and he could name his - own
price. Money came easy, and his
credit was good, so he began to take
on anything he wanted and live the
life of the high roller.
Fnces chased up easy money and
stayed up. Business conditions took
another tumble, wages went down,
but prices stood pat, because the
tightest stand-pat combinations in the
country held them pat.
if we were all producers on our
own accounts and directly shared in
the high prices of everything: grown
or made, then the proposition would
be as broad as long, and nobody
would care if shoes went to $20 a pair
so long as the income from his labor
was in proportion.
iiut only a comparative few set in
the jack pot. Conditions are not al
lowed to seek the natural level and
the pinch comes. The man on a fixed
salary finds the cost of liviner doub
led with his income lust the same. In
other words his salary is cut in two,
or you may put it that his dollar is
cheapened by half.
Ihen comes the manufacturer who
makes an article that is not really a
necessity, whose output is such that
people can get along without it. How
bout him? He finds that he simply
cannot compete with conditions. He
can't lower his prices to make a mar
ket, because the conditions have jack
pocketed his raw material, and hold
the prices where they choose. The re
sult must be curtailed output, men
laid on:; wages reduced.
And we have a cheap dollar or a
dear dollar, depending on which way
you ioilow it out. Combinations won t
et commodities come down, your dol
lar is cut in two in purchasing power.
and you are educated up to a stan
dard of living where you think you
cannot go pack.
And WHAT are you going to do?
and banks suspending payment of de
posits. Then came the official announce
ment that the bankers no longer had
to look to Wall at. The United States
treasury would, if necessary, issue ip
to $500,000,000 in emergency currency
to meet any crisis.
This meant a federal war against
Wall street.
There was no need of the money
after it was offered. One threat was
enough.
New York banks suddendly "found"
millions, and dumped them on the
loan market. The high call loan rate,
(topping from 3 down to one and a
half per cent, was cut in two in a
few hours.
One New York bank reduced its
rates for time money, offered to lend
freely ot its surplus reserve of $28,-
000,000, and in one day bought ?7,
000,000 worth of commercial paper;
the day before this bank had been the
loudest calamity howler about a mon
ey shortage.

THE PANIC THAT FAILED
CHANGING
Hasn't the past .three or four
years brought about wonderful chan
ges in the ideas of the peoplo of this
country, and in the independence of
the voters ?
A few years ago the man who
dared to raise his voice in criticism
of the party in power was a bolter, a
heretic, and a little black cross was
A money panic, carefully planned
by Wall st. bankers and beside which
the 1893 or 1907 would -have seemed
prosperous times, has been nipped in
the bud.
The panic, well under way, stopped
when Secretary of the Treasury, Mc-
Adoo, acting with full approval of
rres. Wilson, announced that the Un
ited States treasury was prepared to
loan country banks $500,000,000 to
paralyze the Wall street gamblers.
The money trust inquiry will prob
ably be reopened.
And there will be no bankers feast
on the carcasses of dead business.
There is positively no doubt that
Wall st. deliberately mapped out a
panic to throw some of its enemies
into bankruptcy and to give tariff
and currency reform a black eye.
i or three months paid represent
atives of New York banks have been
traveling around the country, spread
ing alarm among the bankers and
dropping hints to companions in lux
urious Pullmans.
Trust-owned newspapers have been
following them up and seconding the
motion py announcing a coming short
age of money and a country-wide
stagnation of business to result.
All this time prosperity was on a
sounder basis than ever before. Crops,
steel production and exports have
broken all records.
Wall St., sulked then planned a
panic. It sent forth its agents to scare
business men.
Then it began to hoard trold until
the money market was almost corner
ed.
New York banks announced that
money was scarce at the same time
their vaults were bulirinir. One of the
loudest tf the howlers had reduced
his loans and increased its deposits
by weakening securities, until it had
increased its stock of money nearly
$-u,uuu,uuu.
The New York bankers began to re
fuse loans. Their allies in other big
cities ionoweo tnem. There was a
shortage of credit, but no shortage of
money.
Country banks and business con
cerns all over the country couldn't get
money. A great Western railroad with
over 7,000 miles of tracks was thrown
into bankruptcy because Wall St., re
fused to loan it $3,500,000 a loan
that this railroad had often floated
without difficulty.
Such was the situation on Friday
June the 13th.
It threatened to be second Black
Friday on the New York Stock ex
change.
A panic started.
The stock market was almost in
chaos; many good securities had al
ready reached lower prices than dur
ing the panic of 1907.
Three weeks of thia would mean
bread lines, factories closing down
I note that the bankers' associat
ion is taking hold of the matter of ex
cessive prices for land values in Ore
gon, and I hope they may be able to
shake off a lot of the "boom" value
and get land down to where farmers
can make it pay interest on tne in
vestment.
Oregon has a wonderful soil, sou
that grows almost anything bigger
and more of than any state in the
Union, but if it would grow oats as
high as Jack's bean stalk a farmer
could not make day wages and six
per cent interest on a farm he paid
$200 an acre for.
Common sense tells any man this.
At present market prices it can't be
done along plain farming lines.
And if it can't be done, then there
is only one conclusion, that the land
has a fictitious value, a value above
its producing worth an inflated value.
One of the most successful farmers
in Clackamas county told me the oth
er day that if he would sell- his entire
farm and stock at what he could get
for it today, then sit down and not
do a bit of work, the interest would
make him more money than he makes
now.
Understand, this man is prosperous
and is making good money, but he
got the farm 40 years ago, when
land was cheap, and he is figuring
interest not on what he gave, but on
what he could sell for.
But the newcomer, with a little
cash to pay. down, and a lot of inter
est to pay up, can t make it on $Z00
land. The land simply won't produce
enough at present market prices.
And that s what a newcomer is up
against.
Take a drive out west into this
county and you will see the richest
black land that lays out of doors less
than half cleared.
This part of Oregon could support
ten times more people than it has, buty
they won t come here and buy SZOO
land, pay 6 and 8 per cent and get
3 and 4 per cent.
If we would squeeze the water and
speculation out of Oregon land, get
values down to where a -man would
find land profitable, then this country
would become a beehive of industry
and it won't be much of a beehive un
til we do.

"Yes, our new wagon 's a Studebaker
the only kind we KNOW
"The Studebaker idea has been in our family for
sixty years. We have never thought of buying any
other kind of a wagon."
"It's true, we're continually being offered other
wagons costing a little less, with lots of promises as to
what they will do. But we know in our family what a
Studebaker will do. A few dollars difference in price
doesn't mean much. It's the service a wagon gives

jThat'a -why we stick to Studebaker and 'Stick to Stude
baker' ia a pretty good motto for a man who uses wagons."
"Studebaker wagons are built of good stuff. They're made
right by people who've had yeara and years of experience in
making them right people who are trusted the world over."
"Studebaker wagona last, because they're made to last."
"Look out for the dealer who tells you his wagon ia just as
good as a Studebaker.' That'a my advice after a good deal of
experience and the experience of all of my people. You get a
Studebaker and you've got a safe investment.
