It was known the Sheriff Shaver was
mortally wounded and while his tv
cover? was largely a natter of hop-
ing against hope, still the possibility
of such n result was fondly entertain
ed by the officer's numerous friends.
The officer, fatally wounded, was de
termined to live, but the reaction that
was feared appeared Sunday after
noon and shortly after one o'clock
Monday morning he died
Sheriff Shaver was long n highly
respected resident of Clackamas

In the Rat. A an officer, he was
faithful and efficient: as a friend he
was loyal and true. m

A BRUTE MONSTER.
It is difficult to conceive of any hu
man being developing Into the brute
monster that Murderer Frank Smith
has become but the developments of
the last ten days' stamp him ns a
criminal of the most pronounced type
whose regard for human life and Its
appraisement are entirely lacking
Smith is unquestionably a more des
perate man than Tracey proved The
latter at no time in his sensational

Smith, on the contrary, seems pos
sessed of an insatiable appetite for
human blood. When closely pur-u. d
and when his capture appeared pos
sible. Smith, instead of runuing away,
has retraced his steps, and. coming
up to his pursuers, has resorted to his
revolver with deadly results. After
thus confusing and terrorizing the
officers by his unexampled audacity,
the deliberate murderer has escaped
uninjured.
It Is only right that members of
the ixisso that is seeking to capture
DMtos tin- Democratic interests, helps
along powerfully the Democratic
cause We have no great fault to llnd
with the Governor for his administra
tion of state affairs, though we think
It i not better, nor worse, than the
average. The OrOgOBlM unbesltat-I

Senator and a Democratic Governor at

ment are to lie decided by the Nation
; Nation has already been made strik
ingly and significantly obvious to v
cry voter. A Democratic Coventor
has appointed a Democratic I'nited
States Senator, and the Democratic
Senator may at any time have It with
in his power to decide absolutely the
; fate of any given Republican policy,
and thus himself defeat the whole pur
pose for which the Republican uarty

NOW FOR SUCCESS.
SMITH IS KILLED.
The Republicans of Clackamas
County are now ready for business.
At a meeting of the County Central
Committee in this city Monday, or
ganization was completed by the elec
tion of C. Sehuebel as county chair
man. Vacancies were filled by ap
pointment of new committeemen and
the organization is now ready to do
effective work.
For reasons stated last week, the
Enterprise will support and work for
the entire state, district, county and
precinct tickets, wit!) the exception
of stwe Senator.
With this one exception the Enter
prise tW'ls that tiood. clean and compe
tent men have been nominated for
'the different offices: men who are
qualified Tor the places they siek and ,
who are deserving of the votes of the
electors of the county. v
But there remains work to be done.
The Democrats have planned a stren
uous campaign that is to be carried
into every precinct in the county. An
extra effort will be made to re-elect
Governor Chamberlain as well as the
Congressman for this district and a
number of the county officers.
in this, the minority party should
be disappointed. With Dr. James
Withycombe, a candidate for Govern
or, there is no longer any demand for
continuing Governor Chamberlain as
the State's chief executive, In a
county that, gives a normal Republican
majority of 7CMi and with good men
generally on the Republican ticket,
there is no excuse fir the success of
the minority party. If Republicans
stand by their nominees there will
be elected no Democrats. Inst what
claim on Republican votes a Demo
cratic candidate has. who never him
self has votied for any other candidate
4han a Democrat is not plain to see.
But in order to be elected, the candi
dates of the minority party must re
ceive a great many Republican votes.
Are they going to do it?

eountles and all over Yamhill there

Dr. James Withycombe, of Benton
County, has received iio nomination
for Governor on the Republican tick
et. That his election will follow in
June is assured if Republicans do their
duty. And they will do it. There is
not a single objection that can be urg
ed against the candidacy of Dr. Withy
combe. He is a perfectly clean man
and the Democrats will be without ef
fective ammunition to wage their cam
paign. With such a representative
man as Dr. Withvcombe a candidate
for Governor, there can exist no long
er an excuse for retaining a Democrat,
at the head of the government of a
Republican state.
Dr. lWthycombe is possessed of
every requisite qualification and the
sentiment In Clackamas county is
unanimous among Republican voters
that he is by all means the right ma
for the place. Dr. Withycombe may
be assured that he will receive in
this county tho full Republican vote
and that means a substantial majority
of the votes cast.

cause he cannot, appoint Democrats
to vital political offices
This much by way of introduction
to consideration of an address deliv
ered last night by Governor Chamber
; lain In opening bis campaign for re
election in it Mr Chamberlain sets
forth policies he has advocated and
will advocate and the results he claims
to have accomplished during :'. years
of his Incumbency. Having served a
' chief executive of the state for the
greater portion of one term, he has
a record that is OPM for discussion
; and he is entitled to all the advant
age he can get out of it. If the peo
: pie of Oregon want him for Govern- j
or another four years It Is their privi
' lege to elect him.
It is very evident to any observer
that Governor Chamberlain has his'
ear to the ground and has beard the
distant mnttertngs of public senti- i
ment. He is In accord with the demand
of the times In the matter of fran
chise legislation and regulation ofi
banks, and makes himself perfectly
clear upon these subjects. There Is
no reason to believe however, that he .
has advantage over the Republican
candidate in this respect, and there
can be do doubt that when Dr. Withy
combs opens his campaign he will
take a position as advanced and spec
ific as that announced by Governor!

more, is it not. a fact that state land

they were In previous years? It. Is true
