M. J BROWN,
Always
There's a mean little devil that hangs
at our heels; we can't shake him
off anv way.
And when we're inclined to do some
kindly deed he's certain to
gprine out and say
A few little words in his mean little
voice a sly and insidious hiss,
That makes us think twice ere we do
as we planned "Say, what do
vuu get out of this"
We'd tramp him to death if we could,
but we can't; he's always just
back or our heels.
He skips out and checks every im
pulse for good; the joy of right
doing he steals.
For let us once show any movement
that way, and never a chance
will he miss
To bob up and whisper the Tempter's
own thought "Say, what do
YOU get out of this?"
If this Mexican muddle will elimi
nate Huerta and Hearst it will have
been worth while.
Nease put a $25,000 valuation on

demnation suit eventually thought
he had it just $25,000 too high.

As soon as the land of any country
has all become private property, the
landlords, like all other men, love to
reap where they never sowed, and
demand a rent, even for its natural
produce. Adam Smith.

What a beautiful opening for a
"watchful waiting" comment the
Portland daily overlooked.
The public jury had rendered its
decision of no cause of action in the

Two weeks from tomorrow will

bly Oregon never saw a field of can
didates where there were so few sure
thincs or even favorites, as in the
present contest. All are "up in the

do" depends the fate of many a can
didate. WHEN SMOKED "OUT
A Congressman can change his
mind some between a committee
meeting and a record vote in the
house.
In the committee meeting the de
cision was to stand pat on the 20c
mileage graft and to boost the pay
of tho congressmen's clerks from
$1,500 to $1,800.
In the house, when it came to an
individual vote to go on record, the
mileage was cut down to actual car
fare for members and families and
the increase of clerk hire cut out.
Where the congressmen could hide
from his voters he was a grafter.
When he had to lino up he was an
honest coward.
The Republican is much pleased to
receive a personal letter from our
friend and fellow publisher, M. J.
Brown, editor of the Orogon CiV
Courier, who favored this paper with
a series of letters from the great
southwest. We note that ho will

and take tho statement as a hint that
our readers will have the pleasure
of another volley from his pen. It
is pleasing to learn that he is pros
perous. Rochester publishers wouk

THEIR CHANCE
The Prohibitionists will hold their
state convention in Portland next
week, Tuesday and Wednesday, and
the action they will take in the way
of nominating or endorsing: a can
didate for governor will have much
to do with the out come of the guber-
national election this fall.
As stated before, the Prohibition
ists have great power to win out this
fall if they play their cards.
The probabilities are that the state
will go dry in November, regardless
of who is elected governor, for the
statewide amendment will be voted
on independent of politics or party.
The significance of ,a governor in
connection with a dry state is
whether he will be a man who will
vigorously enforce prohibition, if it
carries, or whether he will wink at
violations and let bootleggers ana
pigs do business.
Statewide prohibition means little
unless officials are elected and ap
pointed to go with it.
The editor has been in Kansas
cities, under statewide prohibition
laws, when the saloons were as open
and as busy as .Pinhole in its palm
iest days.
The reasons of the open violations
were that the people who voted liquor
out of Kansas did not vote men into
office who would keep it out.
He has been in these same cities
again when they were so tight and
dry that a man would have to fall in
to a street fit to get enough whisky
to wet his tonsils.
The reason was that officials were
elected who were backing prohibition.
The Prohibitionists in Portland
next week may nominate a regular
state ticlict independent ot any can
didates now in the held and lose
out.
Or they may get in behind can
didates already pledged for a dry
state and make very probable the
election of these men.
We understand that one of the
sensible propositions the leaders are
considering bringing up at the state
convention, is a recommendation of
candidates for the party primaries
to nominate, of candidates who havu
publicly declared themselves as fa
voring complete prohibition in Ore
gon, and that pending the outcome of
tho primaries that the convention will
not make any nominations next week
but will re-convene during the sum
mer and decide whether it will en
dorse or nominate candidates for
governor, senator, congress, etc.
This would appear to be a wise
play. It would smoke out the pri
mal v nominees and force them to
campaign for statewide prohibition if
they wanted that party's support at
the polls.
The Prohis have the balance of
power. They are in a position to
make or break nominees. If they
only play the game, they will not be
a party joke in this campaign.
YET CARPING
Far be it from the purpose
of any of the critics of the Wil
son administration to favor
cowardice and always to oppose
war. War is the right and
proper thing at times. When
liberty, when unity, when nat
ional honor is the cause of war
then that war is a just war.
But when revenge is the motive,
when revenge is the price the
administration would sell the
lives of the best voung men in
the nation, that war is not
just. Morning Enterprise.
Is tho administration selling the
lives of its best young men in pay
ment for revenge in Mexico?
Is Congress wrong in backing
President Wilson?
President Wilson stood more fron.
Huerta than any other president has
ever stood, to avoid war.
The acts that brought about our
interference in Mexico were deliber
ately planned for that end.
If they had not been sufficient,
other insults would have followed.
It was a question of whether this
country was going to let Mexico rub
it in and appear the coward in the
eyes of the world, or, whether tho
acts of Huerta should be resented and
stopped.
It was a matter of national honor.
Wilson used the iron hand.
Congress and patriotic Amcri
ans sustain him.
' Just think of the horror of eleven
little children and three women,
wives and babies of strikers, being
burned to death in the cellars of tents
at Ludlow, Col., after the tents had
been fired 1'V the gunmen who were
fighting strikers. If there is a hell,
there is the sincere hope that the
brutes responsible for this horrible
act will go to its hottest corner.
Here is hoping they will have to
swim dog-fashion through brimstone
while they search in vain tor an ice
berg to cool their hands on.
Count that day lost whose low de-
cending sun
Views not a brand new damage suit
begun.
THE BEST WAY
Swatting flies is all right, but we
have it figured out that if 60 percent
of the population of the United btat-
was to start in today to swat he
fly out of existence, they would fin
ish the job in the year 3012, approx
imatelv.
According to statistics gathered in
Kansas, every time a fly is swat
ted there is one million born to at
tend the funeral, and the swat move
ment originated in Kansas.
The best and simplest way is to
buv 10 cents worth of farmaldehyd
and put" two teaspoonfuls in a pint
of water. 1'lace in plates or sauc
ers throughout and around the house.
This weak solution will not only kill
all the flies, but is fatal to disease
organisms, and is practically non
Doisonous. except to insects.
It also beats sticky fly paper and
lessens the chances of ruining your
ice cream colored Sunday pants if
vou happen to sit down on it. Ten
cents' worth will last all summer,
Spend ten cents and swat less
THE RIGHT TALK
The following is from the Buffalo,
N. Y., Courier, and it is the kind of
dope that should soaK in:
With the shedding of Ameri
can blood at Vera Cruz, the
Mexican situation becomes one
upon which differences of opin
ion can no longer exist.
The time has passed for ques
tioning the acts of the govern
ment. The time has arrived for un
animous support of what has
been and will be done.
This conflict was not of the
government's seeking. The ad
ministration so long withheld its
hand as to become the subject
of severe censure at home. In
its devotion to peace it has
borne much. Its patience has
been condemned in much public
speech and writing. The usurp
er at Mexico City has presumed
upon it.
Now that it has become nec
essary to strike, the full power
of the people of the United
States should and will back up
the blow.
TIME TO GLOAT
Outbreak of international excite
ment in Mexico has been followed, as
is customary when war is in the air.
with remarks in the various news.
papers upon the superiority of the
several wire services that the sever
al papers employ. Dailies that de
pend upon the United Press for their
telegraph news assure their readers
that the "U. P." was the first to flash
news of the stirring events at Vera
Cruz and elsewhere to a waiting
world; while publications that belong
to the Associated Fress reaffirm the
speed and reliability of "A. P." dis
patches from the war zone. Likewise
those more modern journals that sub
scribe to the Hearst service, known
under the more impressive name of
the International News aervice, boast
that they received the news first, and
got it right the very first time. Such
self-laudatory oemments are to be
expected whenever the war god
breaks loose.
It is somewhat surprising, how
ever, to note that papers that have
no telegraph news at all follow in the
footsteps of the real dailies. Yet
such is the case. Witness the En
terprise this week telling its readers
how they ought to congratulate them
selves because they have a morning
newspaper delivered at their doors,
All the war news came complete and
in its best form to the morning news
papers, modestly asserts Editor Bro-
die, and as a result readers of morn
ing newspapers had it first and fresh.
All this is very excellent, since the
2:14 a.m. train has regularly brought
the hrst edition of the Oregonian to
the Brodie shears during this Mexi
can fuss. But it sometimes happens
that the Oregonian does not catch the
California train and should that
come to pass again, how hollow and
amusing would be the crodie goat,
In the words of one of our modern
humorists:
"It ain't always to boast about
something that you're not sure you're
going to get.
LOOK OUT
A few more such wars as we have
had in Colorado, and we'll get one so
big we can t stop it.
A little more of Big Business's
coarse work, like the Ludlow horror,
and there will be an uprising that will
make the Mexican affair look like a
mothers meeting in comparison
vWhen a billionaire like Morgan
gets bigger than a state government,
it's time to reduce his size, and take
away his power.
When moneyed interests become
so great, they can put on a civil war
to accomplish their ends, then you
want to look out for class troubles,
and big troubles.
What's it all about?
Rockefeller and his companies
own the earth (the mines) in Colo
rado, and they propose to govern
that earth.
Rockefeller couldn't count his mon
ey if dumped into five dollar gold
piece piles, if he lived twenty years
yet and worked ten hours a day.
He has no more moral right to
these great mines than you have to
the Paciliic ocean.
Ho has no more moral right to pile
up billions of dollars than you have
to get control of the drinking watei
of Oregon.
He has no more moral right to
control the coal of Colorado than
you would have to control the high
ways of this state.
And yet with his uncountable
riches, he refuses the just demands
of tho men who have earned this
great fortune for him, and insists
on a private, paid army of armed
guards to hold his slaves from re
bellion. Already Congressman Brvan of
Washington has introduced a bill in
the house to condemn the Rockefeller
mines and hand them over to the
government for operation.
If the bill provided for confiscation
of these properties it would be near
er justice, more satisfactory, and the
country would be far safer.
A man of the Rockefeller stamp
is far more dangerous to our gov
ernment than is Huerta to Mexico,
and his power should be taken from
him.
And when great states like Colo
rado admit they are potwerless to
cone with a situation that Rocke
feller has brought on, then it is that
tho people, the fellows in the ranks
begin to reason it is about time for
them to handle it.
It WOULD SEEM that the gov
ernment could see where things are
coming to.
Histories of many countries have
puuibeu uut nits result.
McDONALD'S REPLY
Did not Insult the Flag and Will
Measure Patriotism with any Man
The following letter, written bv S
McDonald, is in reply to an article
in the Morning Enterprise of Sunday
last, wmcn headlines implied that
Mr. McDonald had insulted the flag,
Ed.
(To the Editor of the Enterprise)
Replying to your article in your
issue of yesterday's date, headed
"Veterans Demand Salute for Insult"
I wish to state that my life and loy
alty have been and are now an open
dook, cnanenging any such state
ments that appear in vour paper. 1
know that there are certain interests
that would gladly see me implicated
in anything that would injure my
standing in this community.
Within a few months of coming
into the United States and Oregon, 1
entered the Oregon National Guard,
and served three years' time, leaving
the service as a corporal with the
verv best papers that a man can re
ceive. I was offered further ' ad
vancement if I could have enliste
for a further term, but family du
ties prevented. I am an American
by choice, and in my devotion to the
United Stat s and to the flag and
all that the flag represents I yield
second place to no man.
My wife, the daughter of a civil
war veteran, the late respected W W.
Watenpaugh; my children American
born with the blood of America's vet
erans in their veins, adds an addit
ional tie to those that bind me to
my adopted country.
Each year, as it comes around, I
have gone with the G. .A R. on Dec
oration day and with head uncovered
have laid the flowers and fired the
volley over the place where heroes
lay buried. The Urand Army of the
Republic belong not alone to Amer
ica, but to all the world where free
dom raises its head and I know that
these men are loved and respected in
Scotland as much as the heroes of
Waterloo or Culloden. There is per
haps a majority of the members of
the Grand Army who know me per
sonally, and some of whom I have the
honor to have as my personal friends.
These men know where I stand and
have stood and will stand if America
needs me woise than my wife and ba
bies. In the talk on the street cor
ner, I may have stated what I want
ed to say awkwardly, but what I
tried to say was this: "If the Ameri
can flag was but a tattered rag it
represents America, and America's
manhood and womanhood, therefore
President Wilson was justified in his
action against Mexico.
I did not say the flag was an old
rag. In regard to my citizen papers,
I am perfectly willing to leave that
matter in the' hands of Judge Camp
hell and the veterans of the Grand
Army, but I do--not intend to be dic
tated to by the liquor interest, which
I believe to be the most deadly and
dangerous enemy of America and the
flag. Against that business I stand
with all my heart and mind, and I
am glad to see the time is at hand
when the flag shall fly stainless
from north to south, from- east to
west, when this traffic shall forever
be blotted out in America.
S. McDonald.
GRANT THE FAVOR
The Eastern Oregon Light &
Power Company has a beutifuT faith
in the state railroad commission.
Tuesday it filed a complaint with
the commission asking that a rival
electric power company be COM
PELLED TO RAISE ITS RATES
in Baker to the same rates this com
pany is charging.
tireat!
The railroad commission should
grant it. There should be no compe
tition in power service in Oregon.
On the same reasoning the cell
Telephone Co. in this city should ask
the railroad commission to force the
Home Co. to raise its rates so there
would be no competition in Oregon
City.
That railroad commission is
pretty handy bunch of politicians.
WILL IT LAST
Gringo and Greaser have stacked
their arms under a truce nag, and
there is temporary peace below the
Kio urande.
Three South American countries
have offered to try the case and ad
ust the dmerences, and .President
Wilson and Usurper Huerta have
agreed.
Yet peace will hang on a hair trig
ger in Mexico for many months.
The united States has many big
companies of great financial interests
in Mexico.
They want this country to be the
stepfather of Mexico and protect
these gold mines.
And they, with the aid ot big
newspapers, will do all in their pow
er to make conditions that will force
the U. S. to "On to Mexico City."
The killing of an American; the
rash act ot a bunch or naii-oreeos
an insult to the U. S.; any of these
are liable to force this country to
trv its own case.
But as the matter stands now, Wil
son has handled it splendidly, and if
he can have his way there will be no
more Mexican war.'
Reasons for Opposing Bonds
Elwood, Oregon,
April 28, 1914
Editor Oregon City Courier:
We. the neon e of tlwood, are not
in narmony witn tne view uuvuuceu
, . ..... j j
bv a number of our city wiseacres,
Have we a right to oppose the "bond
issue 7 . If not please tell us wny.
We are honest, wish to do the right
J thing always, and don't wish to stand
m the way of good roads, out we are
opposed to long standing bonds, in
fact we are in favor of paying as we
go for the necessaries of life, be they
roads, clothing or provisions, for the
following reasons. We were born
into these U. S. A. with natural in
alienable rights. Our children and
our grandchildren are born with the
same rights. No man who enjoys
these rights can be a perfect man
morally and refuse them to the rising
generation. The men that vote for 30
year bonds today are placing a debt
upon our children and our own
grandchildren, and children yet un
born. " Can we legally vote such
bonds? Can we place obligations on
a people without their consent? The
three named classes of people on
whom the bonds would weigh heav
iest, cannot give their consent legal
ly. We would be glad to see this ar
ticle in the next issue of your paper,
if you have room for it.

PROHIBITIONISTS MARK
TIME TILL PRIMARIES
County Convention Merely Elects Del
egates to State Gathering
Meeting in the First Methodist
church Tuesday, prohibitionists of
the county elected delegates to the
state convention of their party, and
after much discussion adjourned
without passing any resolutions en
dorsing candidates, or without pus
ting any candidates in the field for
county offices. It was the sense of
the meeting that it would be better
to wait until after the primaries be
fore taking action on candidates.
Though not so bluntly expressed,
it was the belief of the leaders that
the primaries would weed out the
"sheep" from the "goats" among the
various aspirants for office, and that
alter the May election there would
be plenty of time to endorse candi
dates believed to be good. If a suf
ficient number of worthy men were
not nominated at the primaries, there
will still be opportunity for the pro
hibitionists to put men in the field
that will be acceptable to their lead
ers. Prohibitionists this year are not
seeking victory in office so much as
they are seeking to vote Oregon dry.
They believe that practically all can
didates will follow the wishes of the
people, should they be elected to of
fice, and are therefor going to center
their efforts on the statewide pro
hibition campaign, rather than upon
any special ticket of officers. In this
way it is believed by the leaders that
more will be accomplished, that fac
tional fights will be avoided, and
that a considerable amount of aid
can be drawn to the prohibition cause
from all political parties.

THE MARKETS
The markets are being well sup
plied with vegetables including spin
ach, lettuce, onions, radishes, cauli
flower. California spinach and cab
bage are finding a good demand, but
but the local merchants are unable
to supply this demand by receiving
several shipments each week. The
prospect for a good yield of Oregon
asparagus is good.
If no heavy frosts occur the straw
berry crop will be large. The vines
are literally covered with blossoms,
and growers are much encouraged
over the prospects.
Throughout the county there is
much activity in garden work, but
during the past few days heavy rain
interfered with the farmers and gar
deners work.
There is every indication for a
large yield of plums and cherries and
if the weather is favorable Clacka
mas county will have one of the lar
gest crops harvested.
Fall sown grain is showing up well
and pasturage for livestock is good.
