For every $1.50 that is paid on subscription to this psper the subscriber ia entitled to one guess as to the amount of money the jar contains. It matters not whether the payment covers back subscription or pays for the paper a year in advance, you get a guess anyway. This arrangement makes the contest lair for all old subscribers ss well as those wtio may now become subscrib ers to tbe paper. Another condition that make the con test absolutely fair is the fact that tbe amount of money contained in the jar ia unknown to anybody. Tbe Enterprise placed the bulk of the money in the re ceptacle and tbe balance in unknown denominations and amount, was depos ited therein by Mr. C. Scbuebel, the at torney ol Oregon City, and neither knows tbe amount in tbe jar, which has been securely sealed.
