EDITOR
There was never a more opportune
time than now to give Oregon City a
commission and business form of gov
ernment. You can hardly find a bus
iness man or property owner who does
nnot favor it. The movement simply
needs a leader, a volunteer who will
give some work to the city and who
will help to crystalize the sentiment.
Who is he? J '
Oregon City going dry is a surprise
to many outside of that city. The sen
timent in favor of prohibition is more
than ever state wide. It will be but
a short time untu me staie goes ury,
and if he question of prohibition is
ever submitted to the nation, it will
go dry. There is a movement to amend
the constitution so that such a vote
can be taken. When this is made pos
sible it is the beginning of the end
of the legalized liquor trattic JVioiai
la Pioneer.
It is unconstitutional to limit hours
or wages. How many times we have all
heard this. A man's labor is his own
and it is his right to sen it at his
own price and at what length tie m.y
choose. let state alter state nas nxea
minimum hours and wages in some
decree and now the United States
supreme court has decided the law
prohibiting trainmen from working.
over 16 hours is constitutional and
good law.
This proposition to build good roads
now and pay for them twenty-five
years hence, never looked very good
to me. i
If we can't pay for them now, how
do W6 know we can a quarter of a
century ahead,- after we have paid
thousands of dollars in interest and
the roads all worn out?
Same urincinle as buying an auto.
mobile now, and paying for it when
it goes onto the junk heap.
Interest follows bond issues ' and
bonds have to be paid. If we can't
pay for roads now, we never can.
James J. Hill says if owners put
land prices too high, people will not
go on them.
He is rieht. and Oregon proves it.
Speculative holding of unused land
is holding this state back.
It always seemed to me that only
workers and producers should own
land; that the state should own and
hold dead land, and it should only ha
sold to those who would make it yield,
This holding land for a raise, let
ing it lay idle until demand forced the
price up where the holder could get
many times what he paid for it, is
dead wrong. Labor can make a farm
double its value, and this increase is
legitimate. But when labor on a farm
raises the value of dead acres on ad
joining property, lubor is cheated out
of what it produces.
WERE THE VOTERS RIGHT?
School Commissioner Gary asked
the people to re-elect him to office.
He was a competent man, and the
people did it.
He never asked for more pay of the
people, so far as they had knowledge,
he was satislied.
But the minute the state legisla
ture convened he went to it, and
asked for more pay, a legislature of
which only three men were from his
county. t
This obliging body of men, which
last winter gave away over six mil
lions o fdollurs of the people's money
very obligingly raised Mr. Gary s pay,
But this county put the referendum
on it and killed it.
Then Mr. Gary promptly resigned.
Nine candidates for the position, at
the same pay, asked for the place,
and one has been named who is m
every way fully qualified and compe
tent lor tne position.
Now did the voters of this county
show good, practical business sense,
or urn they not!
NO SPOILS SYSTEM
The county court tells the road dis
tricts that are levying special taxes
for road improvements to vote on a
road supervisor at the same time,
and the court would recognize that ex
pression in the appointments.
It is the right thing to do.
When these districts vote this spec
ial tax for roads, they certainly
should have the right to dictate who
should have the spending of that mon
ey. Those who started the story that
the heads of all who opposed the re
call would fall into the basket will
have time to start another one before
this comes true.
The present county court is trying
to do what the people want done.
Thep probably will make some mis
takes; they will no doubt make ap
pointments that do not please all, but
it is pretty thoroughly established
that the appointments will be made
with the best good of the county in
view.
The spoils system isn't the county
court system.
TAKING THE BACKWARD STEP
fEucene Guard.)
lITormer United States Senator Jon-
fmthan Bourne, Jr., is asking the sup
port of the people or the state tor a
measure wnicn in nis opinion win pre
vent the abuse of the referendum.
From this one would naturally
reach the conclusion that the former
senator was not a very good friend
to the initiative or the referendum.
Should this measure become a law
without amendment, the initiative and
referendum in the Stat of Oregon
would be a dead issue.. It is like kill
ing the patient to cure the disease.
To prevent the circulation of init
iative or referendum petitions with
out compensation means that there
will be no petitions circulated except
by the very rich and idle, or a politic
ian who is building up his political
fences the very kind the people do
not need to circulate such petitions.
Now, if Senator Bourne's bill pro
vided a penalty for the circulation of
any kind of a petition and made it
compulsory that copies of petitions be
filed with the county clertts of the
various counties so that those desiring
to file their protest against any meas
ure, or to aid in the passage of a need
ed law, could do so of their own ac
cord without, being solicited, there
would be some reason for agitating
the public at this time. The measure
should not only contain these provis
ions but it should make it necessary
for at least 15 per cent of the voters
in not less than two-thirds of the
counties in the state to sign such a
petition before an election could be
called. Then and then only would the
really bad measures be killed and the
meritorious ones enacted.
Should the people adopt Senator
Bourne's proposed measure, it would,
in our opinion, be a backward step.
V '
HONESTY BY FORCE
BOURNE HOODWINKED
(Wodburn Independent)
Th TndpnAndent linn received from
Ex-Senator Jonathan Bourne Jr., al
communication in regard to an amend
ment he proposes to the initiative and
referendum laws of this state.
Briefly he wants to prohibit any one
from circulating an initiative or refer
endum petition for pay. The proposal
is, indeed, to make it a penal offense
to hire out or to solicit signatures for
any such petition.
While we are not suprised that
those who are opposed to government
by the people should suggest and
favor such a plan, it certainly does
seem strange that they should be able
to hoodwink so sturdy a friend of the
Oregon system as Senator Bourne has
been, and induce him to father a move
to put that system m the discard.
It is granted that acts are often sub
mitted to vote of the people that
1- l L i i t i j 1. 1 f . r
ougnt iiui tu ue, out mai, is a pari oi
the price of popular rule; and we can
much better afford to have an unnec
essary election such as we had last
luesday, once in a while, than to ren
der it difficult if not impossible to
secure a vote when one ought to be
taken.
Senator Bourne's proposition to put
more obstacles in the way of initiative
and referendum measures is one that
the people of Oregon will never sanc
tion. Having once secured for them
selves the right to enact laws and to
veto acts passed by the legislature,
whatever the people of Oregon may
do or fail to do, they are not going
to put on any braKes on themselves in
iU - Al.-..
me exercise oi mat power.
And President Campbell never sent
the Courier a prepaid message of con
gratulations for the work it did on the
university appropriations. All the rest
omf of
! the boys got 'em.
A writer in the Cornelius Tribune
says he has his reasons for believing
that the administration is pursuing
the right and honest policy with Mex
ico. In the first place the Oregonian
doesn't agree with it, and in the sec
ond place Huerta doesn't.
We will have to live together as
neighbors and so it will be well for
the people of Salem to forget the bit
terness of the wet and dry fight. For
get it all, and go to work to build
a better Salem. There is room and
opportunity for all, and everyone can
agree on a program of developement.

Let this advice apply here.
HE'E RIGHT, ELECT HIM
WHEN WILL IT HAPPEN?
There is a man in the first ward
who will run for councilman, not be

less job, but because many taxpayers
urged him to. run, and he thinks if
they want him, he should.
He has brains, ability and character,
He has a big place in his heart for
Oregon City and wants to see it go
ahead, wants to see it go right, and
if the people elect him it will go right,

his power.
The man is J. O. Staats.

man stands right, and he'll quit him

there is any room for improvement in

When will it happen that a parti

It will never happen. If it did hap

A VOICE FOR ALL
The present rather suspicious si
lence over candidates for governor
rather bears out the Sulem Messenger
story that the politicians have passed
the word down the line for r11 candi
dates to lie low and bAit U'Ren.
Just at present such deuls are not
very populur in Oregon.
Another thing, it takes votes on
top of frame-upa to make them good.
So far, W. S. U'Ren leads the whole
bunch in standing for things the com
mon people need.
And there are enough common
people to make a governor of Oregon.
The boys promised the Courier ed
itor pie three times a day while he
was serving time, and then that horrid
jury acquitted him.
Editor Jackson of the Portland
Journal is behind an intiative bill
which limits the price of land con
demned for public purposes to not
more than double its assesed valua
tion.
WHY public purposes only?
When the public wants a piece of
property it is immediately jumped be
vond its value, because there 1b a de
mand for it and the holder thinks he
can get it get many times the price
he pays taxes on f
And a state law would stop it
If such a state law will stand be
side the big constitution, then why not
have one that will provide that when
an owner sells property to an IJNDi
VI DUAL he shall not charge more
than double the price his property is
assessed at I
Anything wrong with that, Mr,
Jackson 7
Should the public be protected from
the sharks any more than the private?
Demand brings the price of a farm
up just as much as it does a piece of
property the city wants.
And it all simmers down to the
proposition that any property owner
should pay taxes on the SELLING
value of his land, on its market value,
Make every man his own assessor,
and if he sells, compel him to sell at
the price lie has fixed on his land.
That would do away with a consti
tutional amendment to force men to
be honest.
Other states seem to be trying out
thes ingle tax, Pueblo, Cal., being the
latest. Last week's election adopted it
in the city by a majority of BOO. Under
tne charter amendment all taxes will
be raised by assessments on real es
tate, regardless of improvements
thereon.

Another proposed reform to Ore
con's system of government will go
on the ballot by initiative a year from
now proportional representation
(J. bi. Spence, state Urange master,
will start it next month, and W. S.
U'Ren, labor organizations and other
organizations will get behind it.
Proportional representation means
just what the title says, representa
tion in proportion to party organiza
tion.
To illustrate:
Clackamas county is normally Re
publican, and the result is that we
elect two representatives, one sena
tor and one joint representative. ALL
REPUBLICANS, because there is just
a majority for them.
Democrats may cast 49 per cent of
the votes for their nominee, but he
can t go to Salem, nor can this
per cent of the voters have any repre
sentation whatever there.
riow does that strike you, as you
tmnK it over
Socialists, Prohibitionists, Indepen
dents and other minority parties may
worK tneir neads ott lor their nomi
nees, but all the good it does is to be
an also ran."
They don't have a show or a word in
the state legislature. Not a voice, not
a peep. They must get big enough to
lick the boss before they can have
the least representation in our state
legislature.
Under proportional representation
each and every' party would have a
voice in our state legislature in pro
portion to the votes that party cast.
And snouidn t they l
It will be the same system Oregon
uses to elect delegates to the national
conventions, and certainly a thousand
times more representative than the
present system.
Every ' political party should have
a voice in government in proportion to
its strengtn .xou can't get away from
the justice of this contention.
ELIMINATE POLITICS
Put Health Boards Under Civil Service
and Get Trained Officials
Dr. Harvey Wiley says that every
death caused by a preventable disease
is either a suicide or the community is
a murderer. All health boards af
firm the same.
In May this year a conservation of
health congress was held in Reed Col
lege. Dr. George' F. Rheinhardt, pro
fessor of hygiene of the University of
California, declared that it is possible
to eliminate disease almost absolutely
from the human race by a proper un
derstanding of the conditions under
which disease is produced and trans
mitted and by an intelligent enact
ment and administration of Dublid
health laws. He asserted that well in
formed, progressive physicians are the
prime essential to a condition of best
wellfare in the community. He further
asserts that politics retards work. We
have not yet divorced public health
from politics in this country. We too
frequently find the public health of
ficer in a position which he is wholly
unfitted to fill and to which he at
tained only ithroueh some political
move. He says public health adminis
tration should be under civil service
and the man who is given the task
of administering the public health
laws should be thoroughly trained in
the business which he is to pursue,
for after all, the censervation of the
ife and health of our people is the
first thing that should be considered
at all times.
A large proportion of phvsioians
who graduated before 1900, were just
where they were when thev gradua
ted, know nothing of bacteriology, for
it was not then taught in medical colleges.
SCHEMING TO BEAT U'REN
(Salem Messenger.)-
We have not been able to ascertain
just how much truth there is in the
report, but there is a rumor afloat
that the Republicans of the State-
that is, the boys who generally run
things have passed out a quiet tip
for all candidates heretofore announc
ed openly for the governship nomina
tion, to lie down and be very quiet
until the proper time comes when a
man will be found upon whom all
may center in the hope of defeating
W. S. U'Ren for the nomination. It is
believed that an effort will be made to
induce J. H. Ackerman, ex-State Su
perintendent of Schools and now pres
ident of the State Normal School at
Monmouth ,to enter the race against
U'Ren, and that all other candidates
will be called off if the plan works
out, leaving the field clear for these
two. In this way it is hoped to beat
U'Ren for the nomination, when, if
the votes were divided between five
or six candidates it is thought the Ore
gon City man would get away with
it.
This is a very clever scheme, of
course, and it doesn't take a very long
headed man to see that such a job
might be put up and carried out if
U'Ren was willing. But it is hardly
to be expected that Mr. U Ken will
pass the next six months in slumber.
It is suprising what a sentiment is
being expressed in defense of Dr. Van
Brakel in his appointment as health
officer.
The physicians started something
when they commenced action to oust
a man simply because he was an os
teopath.
From as far north as Hood River
and south to Grant's. Pass, the Cour
ier has received all kinds of letters of
commendation for its defense of Dr.
van Brakle.
These letters are not from osteo-'
paths. Not one of them is written on
any doctor's stationery.
They are from men and women who
favor an even break and who are op
posed to associations and organizat
ions that hold close communion.
The county medical society made
two splendid blunders.
One when it endeavored to FORCE
Judge Anderson to do its bidding.
Another in trying to force Dr. van
Brakle out, after it had failed with
the judge.
Judge Dimick to Speak
This (Thursday) afternoon Judge G.
B. Dimick will make a political speech
to the ladies of Portland in the library
building. The talk will be in response
to an invitation.

If You Want to Sell Your Produce Get
In On This
At Willamette Hall, November 21,
1913, at 10 a. m., there will be a
meeting of the fruit and potato men
of this county to discuss ways and
means of marketing our product. HiV-
ery man with an idea should be there,
and there will be good results. A
large organization handling 60 per
cent of the fruit products of the north
west is ready to enter this field. All
r.quity League members are urged to
attend, as this will solve the problems
that you are attempting to solve, but
it will not interfere with your Equity
league pians or organizations oi your
right to market your own products.
The company has done an immense
business and will make it possible for
you to market all your stuff that
comes within their grades. It is
strictly a farmer's organization, and
is a great success. An Oregon man,
Mr. Davidson of Hood River, is presi
dent. Come to the meeting and you
will get into the swim, and things will
be done up brown. All Equity secre
taries are urged to get out the mem
bership. Your purse is your friend
and at Willamette hall, Friday, Nov
ember 21st, at 10 o'clock a. m., we
will show you how to fill that purse.
Your goods can be marketed this year
and we can begin to get ready for next
year. Get in line with prosperity. It's
here.
