"POLLY WANTS A CRACKER."
'Steen minds with but a single
thought are bobbing up in the editor
ial columns of Oregon country news
papers, and many editors who never
expressed an opinion or took a stand
on anything have just found out that
Oregon is bound down and gagged
with "freak" legislation, and that un
less we become normal once more,
and hike back to the old "system,"
Oregon will hit the chutes of ruin
and disaster.
Great minds sometimes run in the
same channels, but thev don't buncn
up like a flock of sheep and all bleat
together.
A master mind inspires this chor
us of criticism, a master of the old-
school, want-to-get-back bunch, and
the parrot papers respond "Folly
wants a cracker.
The object is to fiirht U'Ren.
The bunch is afraid of his chances
for governor.
Now get down to tacks.
What is this "freak" legislation
W. b. U Ken has put on Oregon'
statute books?
Show us the specific statutes.
Point 'em out, one by one, and
show the damage they are doing to
Oregon.
Come on with them. Drag them
into this page of the Courier and let
this paper help to advertise the per
nicious measures.
Oregon has a lot of fool laws, use
less bunk, petty statutes, that the su
preme court dumps overboard as fast
as it gets to hem.
But who is responsible for them?
Fool legislators, petty statesmen
peanut-headed, two-bit legislators.
These are the people responsibl
for Oregon's fool laws not W.
U'Ren and his calibre of statesmen
who are responsible for the "Oregon
system," a system that such men as
Governor Hughes of New York
stumped that state on and held up to
tne boss-ridden, money-controlled
people as the true system of popular
rule. '
Again we ask, show up the "freak"
legislation or Oregon that has W,
U'Ren's label on it.
Come on' with SPECIFIC instances
cut out the generalizing, nail them
down and point out the fathers.
When Oregon editors refuse to let
the politicians think for them, such
a weak-kneed conspiracy can t get by,
DYNAMITE
BY DIVINE RIGHT
A Needy hop grower was in the
Courier olfice Monday and he made
the definite statements that both
Withycombe and Smith were under
stood by the crrowers to be wet can
didates, and that the hop growers
had passed a resolution that none
who were for state-wide prohibition
would be employeed in the hop fields
wis year.
As to the first statement. Dr.
Smith will no doubt have to denounce
or defend it before the campaign
ends. ,
As to the last one, a resolution of
record, we want to ask if it is not
a violation of the constitution, if it
is not intimidation, coercion, bribery,
aim a vioiaiion oi ine corrupt prac
tices act?
mi. i .
ine nop growers nave no more
right to combine and refuse to give
employment to temperance people
than they have to discriminate
against Catholics.
It does not seem that the intelli
gent farmers of the valley would
have allowed the liquor interests to
have carried them to this crisis, but
coming direct trom one of them, we
print it as we iret it.
Certainly they could not have tak
en a worse means to block their own
play.
BEAUTIFUL HOPE
Straddles on the liquor question.
Opposes power of governor to ve
to items in appropriation bills.
Denounces the driving out of the
Chinese.
Opposes governor removing offic
ials for neglect of duty.
Says initiative, referendum, re
call and corrupt practice acts, are all
right in a way, but we have gone too
far.
Says the farmers' $1500 exemption
law is vicious.
Says he favors the old assembly
form for nominating candidates.
And this stand pat candidate hopes
to be governor of progressive Oregon.
Government ownership of railroads
NOW, and of all natural monopolies
within this generation that is tho
demand of the intelligent citizen.
New York Journal.
Councilman Henry Templeton, ob
jecting to the naming of the editor of
this paper on a taxpayers' commit
tee to revise the charter, showed
what was the matter with him when
he told the chairman of the evening
that he believed only "property own
ers" should be on such a committee.
The Courier pays taxes on about
$25,000 worth of property. Mr.
Templeton, through the accident of
owning property and being able to
live on its income, has become so lm
pressed with the divine right of land
lordism that he can't think straight,
He is in the same mental condition as
the monarchs of the old world, who
fancied that they ruled by divine
right, and who balked at any upris
ing of the people as a manifestation
of batan trying to regain raradise,
About the saddest thing that can
be beheld in these days of enlighten
ment is the man or woman who, be
cause of the ownership of more or
less ground, thinks he or she is a
member of some favored class. Ow
ership of land, perhaps, in days gone
by, may have been an indication that
the owner was a person of more than
average ability or intelligence. But
in these days, and particularly in
Oregon, ownership of land is in nine
cases out of ten a badge of shame
for most of the folk who own land in
this state are parasites. They do
nothing themselves, and like leeches.
they live by sucking the blood of
others. In fact a large part of the
land owners of Oregon got their
holdings for practically nothing, and
have been hanging onto them ever
since, retarding the development of
the state.
Councilman Templeton believes in
the divine right of property. If he
had his way, porperty owners alone
would have the right ol the allot,
Yet Mr. Templeton does not believe
that property should bear the cost
of popular advance it should only
furnish an income to those fortunate
enough to own it. If Mr. Templeton
had believed otherwise probably he
would not have ordered Fifth street
improved at the expense of the gen
eral lund he would have been will
ing to pay his share of the cost of
the improvement. Councilman .tem
pleton is for anything that won't cost
the sacred property owners money.
and he is against anything that will
detract from the income that the
property owners get by their own
imagined divine right from their land
In short Councilman templeton is
mentally the equal of the overlords
who misruled Britain before the Mag
na Charta hit them in the neck. That
mav sound like slang, but it is not
it. is a careful selection of words to
convey an exact meaning. Reference
to history will show just how hard
Magna Charta hit these gentry in
the neck. And, the days of divine
right having long ago passed on
people who still incline to that belief
ought to carry special accident insur
ance on their necks. Mr. Temple-
ton's official neck is at present one
of the shining marks of the commun-
tv. and while the Courier does not
desire to hasten any movement of the
public axe towards that mark, it
would not be a bit surprised to see
something happen.
And in closing, Mr. Templeton has
not yet told us who ordered fifth
street improved, nor has he dared to
come out over his own signature and
say that HE did not order it improved.
THE CHUTES
The Republicans have put the
skids under the party in this state
and they have it going towards the
rocks as fast as the pries can move
it.
Their candidate for governor open
ly advocating the abolishment of the
direct primary, a return to the "con
vention" system, nnd in other ways
making a fool of himself.
The old guard politicians, out with
petitions to abolish state-wide pri-
jnanes, and take from the women
the rights just given them.
Tho "old line" Republicans lining
p with the liquor interests and forc
ing their candidate for governor to
traudlo the booze fence.
If the Republicans were searching
the state for a means to commit sui-
ide, do the job thoroughly and quiet
ly, they could not have found a bet
ter means than this trio.
"Tho fools always have to throw
the game away in the ninth inning,"
said a disgusted Republican, "they
ay ball like a bunch of girls."
The effects of a Democratic
tariff, as usual, have resulted
in decreasing the exports and
increasing the imports and in
doing other and various things
of like importance. Morning
Enterprise.
Sure 'nough. This is open season
for "various things of like impor
tance," and the Enterprise is obey
ing orders.
How is it, Editor Brodie, please
explain to an anxious public, how
these mills that have been closed at
this stage of the political game,
have been for years able to invade
foreign markets, and sell cheaper
than foreigners could and cheaper
than they pell at home.
How is it that stoves manufactur
ed in Syracuse, N. Y., can be bought
in Germany at a less price than they
can on the street where they are
made .'
Mills and factories that can com
pete and get business abroad can
take care of themselves at home.
Admittting at a lessened duty the
material needed by our mills and our
people, and which we do not produce
enough of, will never put a country
into panic, only at periods when hard
times are needed to change an ad
ministration.
Big politicians tried hard to start
a panic during Koosevelt s Kepubl
can administration, but couldn't make
it stick.
The masters of industries are try
ing it on Wilson, and the Enterprise
is contributing its little influence to
help on a panic responding to the
master s voice.
That's all.

Interesting Sidelights Thrown on City
Problems in Street Conversation
The boys have simply got to line' . c .u Drt ; t
up to the bar or line up against it. 6, -
As soon as Withycombe and Smith : shadow of the elevator, five men.
are smoked out, "then the senatorial
and congressional nominees will get
the smudge.
Dr. Withycombe should have a cen
sor or guardian. He is state famous
for saying the wrong thing at the
wrong time, and voters are wondering
if he would not be DOING the wrong
thing at the wrong time if elected
governor.
WHEN YOU GET ENOUGH
Every tick of the clock weakens
the two party candidates for gover
nor of Oregon.
"They are both playing fast and
loose to get votes," is heard on every
hand. '
Withycombe's platform is weaker
than booth s declaration. It is sooth
ing syrup and in the judgement of
this paper he would be the weakest
man who ever held down the gover
nor s chair.
Smith, what is he and what does
he stand for? Have vou ever seen
a ripple in the water that he caused
Do vou know of anything he will do
or stand for if elected ;
He has inherited Governor West'i
blessing and West's backbone didn'
eo with the legacy.
And in the meantime taxes pile
up, state expenses pile up, political
jobs pile up, Oergon lags behind, and
then the politicians yell "freak legis
lation to hide the real cause.
But there is a candidate for gover
nor who stands for something, and if
he is elected governor there will be
a rattling of useless bones in Oregon
W. S. U Ken has done more hard
conscientious work for the common
folks of Oregon in one year than the
thirteen candidates for governor ever
did in their lifetimes.
He is a thinker and a doer. The
empty honor of being governor is the
least of his ambitions, ile has prac
tical plans; he stands for the good of
the many, and the great fight of the
masters of politics is to shut him off
from an opportunity to work them
out.
One after another you have taken
the old parties down the line.
Year alter year extravagance and
taxes have increased.
This year we have two Castoria
nominees on the old party tickets.
Little relief you will get from
them, for they will have plenty of
debts to pay.
And if you have had enough of
present conditions change them.
QUALIFIED
The Enterprise is out squarely for
Withycombe for governor, with these
qualifications to recommend him. It
says:
ills clothes, face, hands, hair
shoes; everything on him is ex
act and precise. Sunday night
he wore a light suit and a high
collar with the points turned
down. With his short beard
nicely combed, and his clean,
honest face, his neat, and at
tractive appearance, Dr. Withy
combe is one of those few men
who are precise and attractively
clothed, but one who would pass
you on the street without notice.
And that paper never told us if he
parted his hair in the middle; what
number of collar he wore; what kind
of a watch fob, the maker of his un
derwear, or whether or not he had
cut his wisdom teeth.
And the more the parties fight the
more support docs U'Ren get.
ELBERT HUBBARD
SAYS:
The people who imagine the ginger jar, stocking,
clock, or trousers pockets are sufer receptacles for
money than a bunk, are shining marks for shining
sharks, also for moth, rust, thioves and fire.
A banker's success depends absolutely on ono thing,
and that is protecting his depositors, and American '
bankers of all men, now know it. It is good
working policy to have faith in your banker in
times of doubt consult him. He may give you
unpleasant advice, but the chunces are he's right.

If the proposed proportional
representation measure carries
we will have the Oregon City
Courier to thank or abuse, for to
our knowledge that is the only
sheet in the state backing the
project. Woodburn Independent.
And while you were noticing
things, did you see any sound argu
ment in the hundreds of Oregon pa
pers that are NOT backing it, WHY
they are not?
Can you present a substantial rea
son m opposition, can you present an
argument that will hold water
against a system of electing officials
in proportion to the wishes of the
people ?
If you can, trot them out. No pa
per in Oregon that conies to the
Cornier office has yet done so. They
just hang back and yell "freak" leg
islation at a bill that would give any
party representation only in propor
tion to its voting strength.
Freak newspapers need more to be
abolished than freak laws.

One was a pioneer who came to Ore
gon City when it was but little more
than the end of the Oregon trail, one
was a Main street businessman of the
present generation, one was a ma
chinist, one was formerly a saloon
keeper here, and the fifth was a city
employee. They started talking
about the mass meeting called for
last Saturday to discuss what was the
matter with the city government, and
they wound up in the nearest thing to
a fight that has been seen for some
time. When a Courier reporter join
ed the group the conversation was
going this way:
"The trouble with things today,"
said the Main street merchant, "is
that you old-timers who came here
with John McLoughlin, ought to step
aside and let modern folks run the
city. You old-timers are the curse of
Oregon city, you ve blocked every
improvement that was ever started
here; you stopped the Oregon Elec
tric from coming here, and now
you re fighting our getting pure
water.
"Is that so," said the pioneer,
showing some heat. "Well, let me
tell you something. If it. wasn't for
us there wouldn't have been any Ore
gon City. We made the town, we
put up the buildings on Main street,
we built the place. As for water,
what do they drink in the old world ?
They drink filtered water. What
does Paris drink? What does Lon
don drink? What do all the big cit-
ies drink, do you knowV
"1 don t know what they drink and
I don't care," said the Main street
businessman of the present genera
tion. "But I know this if when you
old mossbacks had decided to filter
sewage water and drink it you had
taken the same amount of money that
you put into this filteration plant
down here you could have tapped a
pure mountain stream somewhere,
and we d be drinking good water to
day at half the cost. But you folks
didn t care what you drank, and be
cause you don't care you think we
oughtn't to care. Now let me ask
you something do you think it is
fair to our children to force them to
drink the slop that Salem and Eu
gene and Albany and all those other
cities pour into the Willamette riv
er I"
"I haven't got any children," said
the pioneer, "and "
"That's just it," interrupted the
businessman. "You haven't any chil
dren, and you don't care whether we
have or not. You live for yourselves,
and you want us to dot he same thing.
Now you say you put up buildings on
Main street. Maybe you did, but
men like me have paid you a lot
more in rent for those same buildings
than the shacks that you put up and
the land you put them on cost you to
gether when you bought them. And
what have you done for us in re
turn?" "They voted the town dry for
you," said the former saloon-man,
"and drove all your trade to Port
land." "Huh, an Americanized Chinese
boy, fifteen years old, could run our
city better than the bunch in power
now do," said the fourth member of
the party."
Well, said the city employee, go
up to the meeting and tell them so."

Cures Stubborn, Itchy Skin Troubles.
"I could scratch myself to pieces"
is often heard from sufferers of
Eczema, Tetter, Itch and similar
Skin Eruptions. Don't Scratch
Stop the Itching at once with Dr.
first application starts healing; the
Red, Rough, Scaly, Itching Skin is
soothed by the Healing and Cooling
Medicines. Mrs. C. A. Einfeldt,
Rock Island, 111., after using Dr.
Hobson's Eczema Ointment, writes;
"This is the first time in nine years
I have been free fro mthe dreadful
ailment." Guaranteed. 50c at your
Druggist.
At Bremen, Ga W. M. Golden.
of the Equitable Life Assurance So
ciety, says he found Foley Kidney
Pills to be the best remedy for kid
ney and bladder troubles, also for
rheumatism. He says, "Any person
having kidney trouble, backache, or
rheumatism should be very glad to
find such a wonderful remedy."
A MISTAKEN IDEA
There are some people who still resort
to drugged pills or alcoholic syrups to
overcome colds, nervousness or general
debility, and who know that the pure,
unadulterated nourishment in Scott's
Emulsion is eminently better, but refrain
from taking it because they fear it may
lead to excessive fat or obesity.
This is a mistaken idea, because Scott's
Emulsion first strengthens the body before
making flesh. Its blood-forming proper
ties aid nature to throw off sickness by
building health from Its very source, and
flesh is formed only by its continued use.
Avoid alcoholic substitutes for SCOTT'S.
