These busy bodies do not sutler directly but the men whom they linve incited are thrown out of employment at a time when work is not lying around loose. There are but one or two other cities throughout this stale where workmen are likely to be in demand during the coming season, and men looking for work are likely to be numerous and they may be willing to work for less money than many of those who have had almost steady work during the winter at two dollars a day, w hich, if the ow ner required cash and hud THE DAILY EXTEXPIUSE. j ,.''art ,vi'" '"'""Pt, would bring him one ..,. ,,, t,. Believing that a new era of growth and prosperity has dawned for Oregon City, and that its coming will be hastened bv the as sistance of a live daily pajer, the publisher of the E.ntekprisk has concluded to start the Daily Enterprise in the near future. It is much easier to arrange for the me chanical issue of a daily paper than it is to make a live newspaper that will be a credit to the publishers and a help to the commu nity in which it is situated. Realizing this We have determined to spare 110 pains to make the daily an important factor in pro moting the best intereste of the place and 111 the building of the greatest manufactur ing city on the I'acitic coast. We have previously noted the advantages 1 of this system to the laboring man to bean incentive to economy and thrill and an o-1 portumty by wise selection to invest audi share in the profits certain to result from the i development of the property ; but the wise meddler was abroad and sowed discord and discontent among the workmen ami thev were thrown out of employment and do I not now have the opportunity of earning j even land script worth m cents on the dol- j tar in cash and face value in land. The sympathetic meddler is largely responsible for the dissatisfaction and its result in w hich he unfortunately does not have to share. We do not blame any workman for wish- ir a parent was neglected in early life, and received but little or 110 education, the greater the reason he should use every available means in his Hiwcr to educate his children, and thus help to raise up a higher and nobler class of men and women in our midst. To this end the greatest care should lie taken to select at the coining school meeting on (lie first Monday of March the very best persons as school directors per sons of broad and liberal views persons who best understand the school system and who will visit the school room ami co-ope- rale with the teachers Unit the very best re sults possible may be achieved. The winter grain in this neighborhood looks tine since the snow has left ami farm ers are preparing for spring work. Truly, the farmer's lite is a busy one. In most pans of the county the fanners have availed themselves of the benefits of organizing societies for their mutual benefit during the winter season when but little work can be done. This is as it should be. The fanner in his isolated condition should provide for himself and family the means of social ami educational advantages' The j farmers usually prefer thegrand old grange i organization or patrons ol husbandry.

The company for whom the work was being done were expending a great deal of money , m developing and improving the place. Their improvements were calculated to bring other industries which would employ help, thus making labor more in demand and increasing the chance for both work and wages. The true policy of laborers therefore was not to give heed to these their ill advisers, but to secure the best work and j wages possible. If they did not wish to I work for script or could not allord to do so i they were under 110 obligations to work or j to accept script if they could get work else- w here, and the fact that the Electric com pany employed a large force of men at an inclement season of the year in clearing up land did not make other cash jobs any less plentiful, or increase the number of men out of employment or looking for work 10 Home interests, and its news will be largely Oregon City and Clackamas county news.

There are other factors to be taken into con sideration which have fully as much to do with the balance being on the right side in the ledger as cheap power, and the mill men looking for a location and who desire to succeed, must take all factors into con sideration and govern their actions by the aum total of advantages less the sum total of drawbacks. m A few years ago parties desiring to start a woolen null were looking for a loc-ation, and paa in view Oregon City among other places, but the offer of a cash rubsidy at Dallas determined the promoters of the scheme to locate there. Last week the plant wai) sold at sheriff's sale, and now the Dal las people are worse ofr than they w ere be fore the mill was built. It may have been that the managers were not governed by business principles in the conduct of the business. He that as it may there were fac tors against the enterprise there which it would not have encountered here. Oregon City is establishing a reputation as a manu facturing city whose wares are known. Up on this reputation new mills can in a meas ure build and succeed. They may also share in the good reputation whic h they have not helped to make, but which belongs to the locality, and toall who establish themselves here. j Probably the most important factor is that of freight rates which are here as cheap as any one could reasonably expect them to be, while at interior points they are neither cheap nor convenient. The dif ference amounts to a continuous and per petual charge against the profits of the busi ness which alone will eat up the interest on a good sized subsidy. It is usually the sam total of these little things which make man ufacturing a success or a failure. Inasmuch as Oregon City has not only great advan tages in her favor but has the small factors in her favor as well, any factory located here has a much more reasonable expecta tion of success than it would have in any other town in the state.

Needy, Feb. 21. -In a recent number of j the "Three testers," the editor, in noting j the recent failure ol the Shields saw null, ! took occasion to lire a broadside at mills of small capacity, claiming that they were "a detriment to the country in that they al-1 ways left strings of unpaid bills behind I them." Now we think that the editor of the Three bisters should heed the old adage about living in glass houses, lor the writer has known editors of such metropolitan journals (?) to find themselves with five "outs" ami one "in," viz: out of money and out of clothes, out at the heels and out at . .

The county assessors are in a quandary, not knowing what form of blank will be re quired in order to make the assessment as required by the new laws and in conformity with their several requirements. Inasmuch as they have not been able to get hold of the laws passed at the recent session the dilli culties to be met are not fully known, there being onlv the newspaper reports and the original bills to go by. Of course either of these is insufficient to determine so impor tant a matter. It will be necessary for at least some of the assessors to secure certified copies of the new laws before they can get ready for assessing and begin work, for it is certain that radical changes are made neces sary by the new laws, and the work of mak ing the assessment bids fair to be much more difficult than ever before, owing to the additional duties imposed upon the assessors. The new laws are largely based upon sim ilar statutes in use in other states where they have worked advantageously. The conditions are somewhat changed here, ow ing to the irregular surveys and boundaries which will make it at times difficult for the assessor to determine in what district prop erty is to be taxed, yet alter the system has been put in good working shape there is ev ery reason to believe that it will prove as satisfactory here as in the Kast. In view of! out of reach of h is creditors, We don't charge the editor of The Sisters with such conduct. He is a stranger to us and a gentleman, we hope. Hut we don't think he should make such sweeping aser tions about men that are trying to subline the wilderness, and are using up some of the timber the while instead of having it all wasted. We know "one horse mill men," as the editor is pleased to call us, who pay their hands and pay for their machinery as they go along, and when they moved from one locality to another did not leave "strings of unpaid bills" for creditors to mourn over. Thut some men are indiscreet enough to buv machinery on credit ami . then through mismanagement oftentimes j of others-fall behind until it is next to 1 111 I possible to catch up, is sad enough; all such I have our sympathies. " We know how 'tis oiirscll." liut we find such in ull profes sions, trades or occupations "one horse" editors same as the rest. J. 8. YODEIt. 8 wrH iiiiiiitjiili The S. B.

There is no institution in this country upon which the safety of our republic so much depends as on our common school. Within the walls of our public schools there exists a power, which if rightly direct ed, will redeem this nation from all pollu tion, cast from it the elements of decay, and CO-OPERA Tl OX. There are people who believe that the so lution of the great labor difficulty will be found in co-operation not in the co-operation of Capital and Labor, but in the co operation of the workingmen themselves with, of course, some assistance from capi talists. The Victoria Colonist says: Co-operation baa been successful in the work of distribution. There are great co CpETaUve concerns in Kngland, Krance, Germany, the United States and other countries, which hve been louud to be very ! imbue it with flic immortal spirit of knowl- the several changes to be made it is impor-1 dt-'c, purity and fraternity; and there is no tant that the several assessors inform them-1 more effective way to impress audi knowl- selves fully of all the requirements of the j e'lge on the mind of youth than through law and wake its first application as sue- j the lessons which ourstars and stripes teach sessful as possible. 1 Us. How important, then, that teachers should realize this; should train their pupils in their duties of citizenship; should make their lessons on patriotism a pow er for good. There is nothing more important than that children should know the value of lib erty; the sacrifices which have been made in her name, the wonderful advancement, mental and physical, which humanity has made through freedom, and the advance- j ment we yet will make so long as the lamp of liberty is kept lighted. Every school house, not only in this state but In this nation, should possess a flag of me tinted States; not only possess a flag but have a teacher who will see that such possession will amount to something.

The county has made a levy for road pur poses for Wtt of two mills on the assessed value. As the citizens of the corporation of Oregon City have already paid to the city their road tax for 1802, the question arises, can the county collect another tax for the same purpose for the same yearr NQ5LETT'S STABLES.
