TIE MEN BEHIND.
LOOK OVER THE COUNTY COURT
SUPPORTERS IN THIS FIGHT
Determine if Your Interests are the
Interests of These Men
Oswego, Aug. 4
On Friday evening of last week
there appeared on the streets of our
great little burgh a quartet from
Oregon City, who repaired to the
church and gave us some ex
planation (or at least tried to) of
how our County Court had managed
Vin linainpqa and nf our c.ountv.
Mr. Beatie dealt with great weight
and emphasis upon the tact that our
county was out of debt, and that he
alone was responsible for this calam
ity, although the majority of us
present knew at the time that the
county was again in debt for about
$G0,000 and therefore did not take
much stock in his assertions. What
seemed a little queer and funny to
us was the composition of the quar
tet. Let us see who they were.
There was R. B. Beatie, our present
county judge, who has a notion tnat
old Clackamas will go to Hades if
he should be defeated at the recall
election we are of the opinion that
it would be a Godsend tt the county,
and also to his dear family, if he
would be compelled to stay at home
marlines and stav away irom me
unnrt-.ino' fraternitv.
Next was N. Blair, our Commiss
ioner, who has always acted in ca
Vinnta with Beatie and done exactly
what was requested of him, whether
good or bad, and thererore nas Deen
a nonenity. ,
Thn third on the list was Joseph E
Hedges. Joseph's head looked as tho
it had been through the thrashing
machine, and had pulled the plants
by the roots. Now Joseph E. is the
great law expounder and opinion giv
er of the Universe. Some people
wonder why it is that he is taking
such great interest in Mr. Beatie
when must know that our Court is
rotten from the word go. May I give
a few reasons 1
Mr. Hedges is the chief attorney
of the Portland Railway, Light &
Power Co., in Clackamas county, the
hireling of the largest corporation in
Oregon if not on the Pacific Coast.
This corporation needs favors in the
of franchises, which the
corporations have in the past been
. getting for the asking from Mr. iiea
tin n,T Rlir. T,ook at the FERPETU
AL FRANCHISE given the Portland
Gas & Coake Co., a subsidiary 01 ine
P. Ry. L. & P. Co, to carry their
pipes over the streets and highways
nf Clackamas from Golf Park to
pnTNTS and PLACES BEYOND.
This corporation is fighting for the
control of our County Court. They
know very well that our candidate for
Judge, Mr. Anderson, will only
stand for JUSTICE TO ALL. He is
not a man to oppose or obstruct de
velopement of our resources. But they
know he can not be bought. The Pac
ific States Telephone Co. found this
out, when their representative tried
to buy him, made him valuable offers
if he would cast his vote as director
nf thn Clear Creek Tel. Co.. to their
side. But Mr. Anderson spurned their
ofLir. and worked aiid voted against
their rjroDOsition. 1
, Now Mr. Hedges as representative
of the P. Ry. L. & F. Co., needs as
sistance in maintaining the hold on
our County Court and lie succeeds in
enlisting the NOTORIOUS George C.
Brownell.
Genrire C. Brownell is an attorney
for all corporations that need the ser
vices of a law sharp, more especially
the P. E. & E. Railroad, an outgrowth
of the S. P. R. R.( and has done more
harm to Clackamas county, the Will
amette Valley and the whole state of
Oregon by retarding its developement
than all other agencies combined.
In order to Berve his employers
Brownell will stoop to almost any
thing, good or bud, decent or indec
ent. It will not make any difference
as long as he gains his point.
Some years ago when he was a can
didate for the state senate the writer
met him one day in a saloon in Mil
waukie setting em up for a lot of
farmers. Old George was pretty well
loaded at the time, and promising la
most anything from eight hour law
for the working man, free locks at
Oregon City for the farmers and the
kingdom of Heaven to all who would
support and vote for hmi. When he
left the saloon he remarked: "I have
fixed them alright." But he was
greatly fooled by these farmers, every
one of them voted against him.
Don't you think that the federal
grand jury did not have plenty of ev
idence, a just cause to justify an in
dictment against Brownell in the land
fraud cases wasn't he indicted for
perjury? Did not Francis J. Heney,
the great federal prosecutor, remark
after this indictment against Brow
nell had been dropped, through some
unknown force that Brownell, in
stead of being nllowed to plead be
fore the bur Bhould be behind the bars
wearing stripes?
Do you think thut Mr. Wade at
Currinsville, the foreman of that,
memorable grand jury, and ono of the
peer of the peers of our citi.ens and
jury that indicted Brownell, would
consider for ono momement or ac
quosce in an indictment if there was
not just causes?
Is it not a well known fact that
Brownell, as a rule, represents the
criminal classes and associates with
them? Citizens , remember the old
saying, "Birds of one feather, Go
chirping together," fits exactly in this
case.
These are Rome of the men that
are trying to coerce your support and
vote for R. B. Beatie and N. Glair,
who are not worth your confidence.
Vote for II. S. Anderson for County
Judge and 'J. V. Smith for County
Commissioner. You'll never regret it.

PROBLEM
A Socialist's Views from Idaho on
Oregon Disturbances
Burke, Idaho, July 28, 1913
Editor Courier:
In your issue of 1st week's Courier
I noticed a comment on the 1. W. W.
and in fact ever since that little flurry
in Oregon City which seemed to have
created such a stir m the "police
circles". To an intelligent observei
it is as the French say "to laugh" for
we know that those in authority know
on which side their bread is buttered
and by who it is buttered. But al
their efforts can not stop the labor
movement, it may simply retard it a
short while.
Whether the idea of the I. W. W
is correct economics I question, but
it is one phase of the labor move
ment, a movement which will even
tually take in all phases of the ques
tion and favor one bodv of Industrial
workers, with but one slogan and that
is the abolishment fo the wage svs
tem and the institution in its place,
evolution, or, in other words, Social
ism. Now hold up your hands in holy
horror you exploiters of labor and you
sycophants who represent the law,
ana aon t Know now to interpret the
law.
We know that society at present is
composed of but two classes. That is
the worker and the shirker, or we will
put it plainer the exploiter and the
exploited. And whether the solution
to the problem will be terminated
peacefully, will rest entirely with the
exploiter. The Socialist does not fa
vor violence, but a peaceful solution
to the problem, and when one class
organized on an industrial field with
a .political issue. Why if then
the exploiter offers violence he would
find us not lacking in val.or
An intelligent economist knows
that he is robbed at the point of pro
duction of the surplus that "facinat
ing surplus" over and above what he
receives in wages. And that the rest
of the plucking process is furnished
by the petty business men who so
courgaeously drive the industrial
worker from pillar to post and are
very often backed up b ya lot of cap
italistic minded numbskulls who are
only imbued with the patriotic "Tom
my rot handed out to them by the
"surplus loving" bunco r.teerers.
Let us listen to some simple, sane
and scholarly words on this red flag
that is making some of our patriotic
surplus loving citizens sit up and take
notice, in fact making them get up on
their hind feet as Brother Stark says.
And incidentally making them break
the laws and the conditions of this
our great and glorious country, which
has the greatest oi recourses and at
the same time the most crooked states
men and the greatest of poverty.
I have reference to that wonderful
patriotic affair in Seattle when a lot
of hoodlum Men-of-Warsmen and a
lot of hoodlum soldiers at the head
of a lot of patriotic hodlums of this,
our great and glorious nation led
an attack on "defenceless" property
and destroyed it without hindrance by
our patriotic guardians of the law,
who also get their bread irom us and
hold it out lo be buttered by the sur
plus-loving exploiter.
And again hen in Marshiieid and
Bandon, Ore. ,a few sycaphantic busi
ness men ( in fact I never saw a bus
iness man who did not kow tow to
the worker for what profit he could
make out of him took the la in their
own hands and deported a few defenc
less men. Oh, what wonderful courage
these men of Marshiieid and tfanuon
displayed about the same kind of
courage as a pack of wolves would
display in rending a shepo.
All this under the flug which is sup
posed to stand for liberty, justice
and protection.
Now we come to those simple, sane
and scholarly ords spoken by one of
their own class, who at least nas Kept
his head at the right angle. I refer to
Mayor Gaynor of New York. He had
this to say concerning the red flag:
I have particularly made the po
lice authorities understand that those
who entertain views of government
or of an economic or social order dif
ferent from ours are not t be interfer
ed with or denied the right of freedom
of speech and asembly on that ac
count. A propaganda of intellectual
persuasion and peacable moans for
changes in form of government or in
the economic or social order is "luw
ful," and not to be meddled with, much
loss oppressed by the police. The Soc
ialists do not believe in individuulism
but in collectivision, and that their
flug is red instead of green or yel
low does not annoy or alarm intelli
gent people. They chose tho color red
for their emblem, not to signify thut
they favor violence or the shedding of
blood as the unintelligent suppose und
as the actions of thoso in authority
often lead people to believe but for the
purpose of typifying the common
brotherhood of all men and of all
nations throuirh the same red blood
which flows through the veins of all
and to the end that all war and vio
lence shall cease.
Let the fundamental rights of all
on which free governmncl rest be de
nied to no one. Those who want to
work changes peacably through the
ballot box have the right to do so.
They may let light in as John Stuart
Mill says. That wnicn seems me
height of absurdity to one generation
may be the wisdo mof the next.
The above sounds better to an intol
cent nerson than to arrest a lot of
men and keep them in jail for a few
weeks and then have to turn them
loose on account of lack of evidence
as has been done in Oregon City.
There Is ono thing which will make
a Socialist about as quick as anything
and that is to hold a poor man guilty
until proven innocent and a rich man
innocent until proven guilty. Of course
in this our great and glorious country
poverty is considered a crime and a
worker in a way is supposed to be
criminaly inclined at least if he has
ideas opposed to the cxistfng sys-
tern of government, which is at the
present time endorsed by the exploit
ing class for exploition from an cv
onomic point of view is robbery and
an exploiter is a legalised criminal.
Hence thotr way or thinking poverty
and correct economics punishable by
jail sentences and deportation.

DEFENDS COUNTY COURT
0. D. Robbins of Logan Gives
his
Views on the Reacall
Logan, July 28, 1913
Editor Courier:
The Courier has expressed a desire
to smoke out someone to defend the
county court and as I do not generally
avoid an opportunity to defend men r
measures that are attacked when I
believe in them, I wish to give some of
my reasons for opposing the recall.
In my humble judgement the direct
charges of extravagance and the im
plied charges of fraud have not been
sustained and to make the statement
stronger, I believe the court has ac
complished more for the county than
,any court we have ever had. -The mis
takes have been grossly exaggerated.
The good things have been ignored or
denied and the mostly urfounded and
unproven charges have been so in
dustriously and persistently made that
a lot of suspicion has been aroused.
Because taxes have been high a little
evidence with a lot of statement has
made a big impression.
When Judge Beatie canvassed the
county he stated in every precinct, I
presume, as I know he did at Logan,
that while times were good, he was in
favor of increasing the tax rate to
gradually pay the debt. That looked
good to me then and it looks better to
me now when the court has carried it
out and made a substantial reduction
in the debt. In fact, Judge Beatie
claims that Mr. Hackett's report,
which can easily be verified from the
records, shows thee ounty was nearly
$100,000 better off at the end of March
1912 than at the end of March 1910.
This, besides building many perman
ent steel bridges with concrete piers;
the annexation to the court house and
the large amounts spent on the roads:
If there is any way to pay off a county
debt without reaching into the tax
payers' pockets, show me. And while
you are about it show n e that it is
not wise to pay olr the debt and
make permanent improvements in the
Three of a Kind!

way of roads and bridges
If taxes are higher for a while it is
the road to lower taxes in the future.
When I was in debt I worked hard to
make as large payments as possible.
I've never regretted it and as a citi
zen of the county I upheld a similar
course in the county court.
The mass meeting committee that
examined the county records evidently
made the mistake of blaming the to
tal taxation on the county court when
they claimed the court was in bad to
the amount of $ 103,000, as copmared
with tho court of 1010.
Judge Beatie's statement published
in tho Telegram enters into minute de
tails and gives exact figures of the
taxes of 1010 and 1912 and separates
the mandatory taxes from the other
fir Imth vonrs. Theso mjimhitnrv taxes
such as the state and special road
and school taxes, the court has nothing
to do with it in levying or expending
and this puts an entirely different
face on the matter and shows as be
fore stated that tho county had gone
ahead nearly $100,000 in the two years
besides paying an increase in manda
tory taxes of over $82,000 and that
the increase of taxes of 1012 over
those of 1910, for which the court
responsible, was less than $0,000.
It will be remembered that before
the previous county judge was elected
ho hud promised to get thee ounty
out of debt before the expiration of
his term, but his courage was not
equal to the necessary increase in
taxation and he gave up the job. Shall
we show by our actions aid votes that
we do not appreciate it when we g;et
a court that has the courage of its
convictions and does the necessary
and proper thing?
I suggest that if the Courier is sia-
cere in desiring to publish a defense
by Judge Beatie, that it publish the
complete statement by him, published
in The Telegram of, I think July 16th,
as the clipping is headed the 16th. I
would ask all candid voters to read it
carefully and ask themselves if it is
not a complete and satisfactory re
ply to thei charges of the "Pomona
Grange resolutions, which - head the
article. I presume the article was pub
lished in the Enterprise also.
As to the bridge contracts, if any
thing wrong was proven it was a
technical violation of law not necess
arily showing the county was wrong
ed, as- the other part of the charge de
pended, as I understand it, on the ev
idence of one expert, as did the court
house work case, and experts often
differ and make mistakes in such
cases.- i
And the timber cruising, who knows
it would have been cheaper to do it by
day's work and is there anyone in the
county with sufficient experience to
warrant them in bidding less? A pro
portion was made which would have
made and it had to be taken up or
turneaV down, which would have ended
the matter.
I believe in the recall law, but I
do not believe in using it as a boy
might a new jack knife on any furni
ture that comes in his way or as the
obstreperous Irishman said: "Just to
show my authority over ye."
I have the highest respect for the
recall candidates, especially the nom
inee for judge, whom I well know and
under other circumstances I should be
pleased to have a chance to vote for
them.

Oreg noCity, Rt. 1
Editor Enterprise
I have iust been shown a copy of
0ur paper of August 1st, 1913, con
taining an article headed: "Equity
Society Hits at Recall," and I wish
. to say, most emphatically, that the
I article is on a par with many such

ing a mess.
In the first place I wish to say that
I am not the secretary of Beaver
Creek Local, nor do I hold any other
office in this local, although I have
been a member since its crganization.
Beaver Creek Local did go on re
cord as not favoring Mr. R. Schuebel
as purchasing agent for the Society
in Clackamas county and expressed
themselves in favor of not purchasing
supplies through him for reasons of
our own, which do not necessarily
concern the public outside the Equity
Society. The recall question was not
mentioned either in connection with
the question or in any other way in
fact. Beaver Creek Local as a local,
has not discussed the recall question.
Our members are, -and have always
been, opposed to introducing political
party questions into the society.
My position in regard to the recall
movement is the same today as it
was the day that the Mass Meeting
Committee, consisting of R. Schuebel,
M. J. Brown and Mr. Casto, made
their report, notwithstanding your
statement that I have "heretofore been
high in the councils of the recallers,"

so you can take this from me as be

I want to repeat that the action of

THE WAYS OF THE COURT
Mr. Bruckman Cites Reasons Why
the People Should Win Fight
Clackamas, Aug. 1, 1913
Editor Courier:
I have been thinking for some time
that I ought to do something to help
this cause of right and justice along.
I received a sample copy of the Enter
prise last' night and it set me afire.
When I was asked to sign the re
call petition I jumped at the chance,
because I had a reason. Now I don't
know Mr. Beatie or Blair, if I were
to meet them, but I do know them
through business transactions.
I live one mile north of Clackamas
Station and they ordered the road boss
Mr. Bennet, to take out a bridge and
fill up the water course, which is the
natural course the creek should have.
Consequently it throws the water on
higher ground and in flood times it
causes damage to 5 different parties,
which it has done already. When Judge
Beatie was approached on the subject
he just laughed at the party. If they-
would have opened up an outlet tney
would have been justified in their
action. It was just as though I would
construct a dam across my creek and
throw the water on my neighbor,.
The county or any company or individ
ual has any such right.
The County court will be notified
to reopen that water-way before
another freshet or suit will be brought
for damages. We are not all fools be
cause we look green.
It does my heart good to read the
Courier. The real fact is what counts.
Dishonesty and graft are being inves
tigated all over the country and the
frauds exposed, and the time is come.
I have often heard old people pre
dict a revolution, but I think they
meant a bloody war. The way the
trusts and grafts have been raging
in wic past aujjiioca 111c uiai. mc vitiligo
are not worse than they are.
I am sorry that I can t do as 1 in
tended to some months ago. I made
some preparations to go out and help
what I could to get the farmers or
ganized, which is their only salvation,
but poor health and other things pre
vented so far as me doing much in
that respect. We can't always do as we
would like to, but we can be honorable
and just in our actions and dealings.
A clear conscience gives rest and
peace.
I wish Mr. Anderson and Mr. Smith
a hearty success. What I have done
and will do help along the cause, is
certain. Here is my name as I want
the people to know that I am in for
square dealings.

STANDING FOR THE WRONG
Writer Vigorously Condemns Dr.
Schultz and Morning Enterprise I
Editor Courier: I
I would like to ask if you would
permit me a few lines on Dr. Schultz
and the Enterprise? You will not
think it strange of me an admirer of
the Courier, asking this privilege.
for where else in O. C. would a man
get a chance to voice his sentiments
against injustice in print? When I
think of the cold steel, embryonic,
harsh, mediaevial, very unmerciful,
antiquated soliloquy poured out on
the Scotch and the un-Scotch pastors
of this our city.
it makes me think of rrutes, Diaz,
Huerta, and others that have long ago
dropped into history. But whose mem
ories linger. . i
I am thinking of a time when a Dr.
Schultz dropped into our fair city
and started the practice of medicine.
Of how some of us helped him to
make a bid for that practice; of how
a minister took him to be his family
physician, no doubt because he was
heralded as good old Dr. Schultz,
First, let me explain why I resent
this vociferous, vitriolic outburst of
the Drs. on the ministers and the
Scotch. ,I'm of Scotch descent my
self, and my wife is all Scotch. I love
and know the preachers because I
work with them. By the way it seems
that the name Schultz is German.
Well, we love the Germans for the '
good that there is in them, therefore
we shall certainly not speak ill of any
undesireable trait that they may or
may not possess. Nevertheless we
have found out where a good many
men, professional and otherwise,
stand when it comes to upholding law
and order. We also know what news-'
papers take the right side of every
thing. We certainly know what side the
Morning Menace took in the fight
against the Woozy Bill, one buffalo
and a bear Wild West that sought,
by every subtle effort, to put one
over on us. I wonder what the Doc
tor, the Morning Menace and the
Be-eg Show think now of the spunk
of a few Scotch preachers and lay
men that were not Scotch? Also of
the Governor of the State of Oregon.
The Dr. no doubt has done himself a
good turn in that he has proved him
self a historian. Let us hope that we
shall see him on the faculty of one
of our state schools, even as big Bill
Taft got a job in a school because of
his science in the lore of Blackstone
and stand-pat-ism.
But now the show is part and the
did not get to show, with a circuit
judge restraining order issued on an
exported statement of the showman,
which tied the hands of the sheriff.

Roundup Up to Snuff
Every person at the Round Up this
year, September 11, 12 and 13, no dif
ference whether in the grand Btand or
bleachers, will be able to know exactly
what is going on and who the contes
tants and horses are, for the manage
ment is going to install an electric
enunciator system, the same as is in
use in the big ball parks in the major
leagues, the Union depot in Portland
and other large cities. These enunci
ators work on the principal of the tel
ephone and phonograph, the horns el
ing placed around at different points
in the grand stand and bleachers and
connected with wires to the central
stand where the man speaks in to the
muth piece. The cost of installation
will be over $1,000, but the manage
ment believes the people will appreci
ate it and if they do it it will be well
worth the money.

Remarkable Cure of Dysentery.
"I was attacked with dysentery
about July 15th, and used the doc
tor's medicine and other remedies
with no relief, only getting worse all
the time. I was unable to do any
thing and myy weight dropped from
145 to 125 pounds. I suffered for
about two months when I was advised
to use Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera
and Diarrhoea Remedy. I used two
bottles of it and it gave me permanent
relief," writes B. W. Hill of Snow
