Our debating society at its last meeting decided that the government should own the railroads and telegraph lines. The offi cials will please take possession immedi ately, we care not whether they buy, bor row or steal them, and the people will pre pare to ship produce and to ride free of charge, for, as Charlie Cutting says, where the government owns the railroads, and we are the government, of course we are not gqjng to charge ourselves for riding on our own roads. How are we going to pay running ex penses? Well, we are going to put in Sen ator Pell'cr for president and Hon. Jeremiah Sockless Simpson for vice president of all the roads, and employ alliance men to run them, and print paper dollars to pay them for their services. See how easy? The Hon. Jerry Simpson is not half apprecia ted as a far-seeing statesman. Take for in stance his plan for making an estimate of all the gold and silver in our mountains and basing paper money on that estimate. Think what a boon that would be for Clack amas county. Here we have a number of rich mines not paying a cent. Adopt Simp son's plan; issue a few millions of paper money, the more the better, based on the hidden wealth, say in Andy Wyland's mine, and what a boom it would give the county I We can safely trust Andy to dis tribute the money.
