5. Constitutional amendment provid
ing a method of amending the constitu
tion and applying the referendum to
all laws affecting constitutional con
ventions and amendments. This
amendment contemplates giving the
people the right to amend the state's
constitution by conventions.
6. Constitutional amendment giving
cities and towns exclusive power to
enact and amend their charters. This
measure should receive a unanimous
vote. It is only right that the people
appropriate to themselves the right to
alter their city charters. Of what pos
sible interest can a legislator from
Harney county have in the proposed
amending of he city charter for Ore
gon City, yet under the present sys
tem, when this legislation is enacted
by the state legislature, he has a vote
on the subject.

ticket from top to bottom. They have
tired of surrendering the office of Gov
ernor to the minority party and at the
same time make a present of the Unit
ed States Senatorship to the same
party. They have awakened to the
situation and will see to it that condi
tions will not again be established by
"which it will be possible for a Demo
crat to be appointed to the United
States Senate.
As has been stated, the Republicans
are without factions this year. The
candidates on the state ticket are the
choice of a majority of the Republi
can voters of the state. These nomi
nees are entitled to and will receive
the votes of the Republicans through
out the state. This insures the elec
tion of the entire ticket.
The cowardly attacks that are being
made through the Democratic press on
Dr. James Withycombe, Republican
candidate for Governor, are resulting
to his material advantage and the dis
credit of Governor Chamberlain and
his campaign managers who inspired
the attacks. Dr. Withycombe is a clean
honorable and representative citizen
against whose public or private life
not a single charge has been prefer
red by the opposition party. The Re
publican nominee stands upon a plat
form with regard to all important
questions, that finds responsive chord
with the common people. Dr. Withy
combe is a man of convictions and he
will be found enforcing his policies
when he assumes the executive office
in the state government next January.
Besides the State Senator, the Dem
ocrats are making a desperate effort
to elect their candidates for Sheriff
and Clerk. If there were any valid
reason why the Democrats should
elect these two officers on- the county
ticket, the situation would be differ
ent, but in the absence of the slight
est excuse such a result is of course
out of the question.
Eli C. Maddock, the Republican can
didate for Sheriff, is capable and de
serving of the office. He is the same
Eli yesterday, today" and all the time
and his friends throughout the county
are legion and they will be found
working faithfully for Mr. Maddock
until the polls are. closed on election
day.
Discussing the clerkship, Clackamas
county never had a more efficient and
faithful officer than it has in the per
son of County Clerk Greenman who is
a candidate to succeed himself in the
office he has filled by appointment for
one year. Mr. Greenman possesses
rare clerical ability, the records in
the clerk's department at the court
house verifying this statement. Mr.
Greenman has proved especially faith
ful and deserving during the short
time he has been in the office. He is
entitled to an election. Be it said to
the credit of Mr. Greenman that he
finds it impossible to make an active
canvas of the county in the interest
of his candidacy at this time for the
reason that the duties of the office

Does any one doubt that Mr. Bourne
would not be as aggressive for the

TO PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT IN
THE U. S. SENATE AS HE HAS
BEEN AS A PRIVATE .CITIZEN?
If Oregon hopes to hold her own in
the development of western common
wealths, it is high time the people
were represented in Washington by
a man of such peerless 'dynamic force
and keen mentality and ability to do
things as Jonathan Bourne.
The Journal believes in standing by
the law. If any of the other aspirants
had received the direct nomination for
the U. S. Senate, IT WOULD MAKE

If there be any Republicans who
imagine they are helping their party
in the future by defeating Mr Bourne,

COST OF PRIMARY ELECTION.
What the enemies of the Adminis
tration have been trying to magnify
into a nasty row, has about simmered
down to the proportions of a teapot
tempest. When the President last
week launched his denunciations of
the former Senator Chandler, he did
what perhaps was an. unwise but at
the same time a very characteristic
thing. Mr, Roosevelt is not much giv
en to measuring-words, and he confes
ses himself that at times it is hard fdr
him to differentiate between Mr. Roos
evelt and President Roosevelt. How
ever, the row between the President

AMENDMENTS TO BE VOTED FOR.
There are to be voted on at the June
election eleven different measures
with the details of which but few of
the voters are acquainted. The pur
port of some of the measures is evi
dent from the wording of the proposi
tions as they will be printed on the
official ballot. Where the intent is not
clear, the Enterprise will seek to ex
plain something of the purpose of the
proposed changes. The various meas
ures are as follows:
1. Referring the special -appropriation
bill passed at the last session of
the legislature and providing funds for
the maintenance of the various state
institutions.
This is the bill Governor Chamber
lain returned to the legislature without
his signature and it was then that the
referendum was invoked by the peo
ple. The main objection to this meas
ure was the large appropriations made
for the different state normal schools
and other state institutions.
2. Proposing an equal suffrage
amendment to the state's constitution.
This extends to women the right to
vote.
3.
The changes to this measure as con-
it is also to be said right here, that
Mr. Greenman is conducting this of
fice as cheaply if not at less expense
to the taxpayers of Clackamas coun
ty than it has ever been managed.
Electors, irrespective of party, who
appreciate faithful and efficient ser
vices in a public official with due re
gard to economy, will be found vot
ing for Mr. Greenman and they will
be justified in doing so.
Clackamas county Republicans have
no excuse to offer for their candidates
on the county ticket. No excuses or
apologies are required. They are all
capable, deserving, honorable and rep
resentative citizens and what is more
they are going to be elected.
o
THE FARMERS' CANDIDATE.
Dr. James Withycombe, Republican
nominee for Governor, is just as clean,
capable, honorable and deserving a
man as was ever nominated or elected
to the office of Governor. He has
long been engaged in a line of work
that has brought him in close touch
with the farmer and producer. Prac
tically every Clackamas county farm
er knows Dr. Withycombe. They
have seen him and have heard him at
some of the various farmers' institut
es he has conducted within the county.
The Republican nominee has the in
terests of the farmer and producer at
heart and every Clackamas county
farmer will be serving his own best
interest in supporting Dr. Withy
combe for the office to which he as
pires. Let Clackamas county voters
do their part in rolling up the usual
Republican majority for Dr. Withy
combe for Governor and every other
candidate on the Republican state

FREE CITY DELIVERY.
Postmaster T. P. Randall has re
newed his attempts to secure for Or
egon City a free mail delivery. The
receipts of the Oregon City office ex
ceed by nearly $4,000 the amount that
is required before this service can be
asked. Residents of Oregon City will
do their part towards getting this mail
service by lending a helping hand in
the matter of numbering residences
and posting the names of the streets
when the Council Committee on
Streets and Public Property to which
this matter has been referred, formu
lates a plan for doing this thing.
Let's get up and dust and secure
what belongs to us.

From figures at hand. County Clerk
Greenman has ascertained the cost of
the recent primary election to Clacka
mas county taxpayers. The total cost
was $2196.40, or an expense of 69
cents each for the 3180 votes that were . and the various factions of the Senate
cast. . This total was made up of the appears about over. Attorney General

he expressed himself as thoroughly
satisfied with the status of affairs. He
would not say much about his inter
view, but he did say that he was per
fectly in accord with the President
and that they understood each other
fully.
The Democratic end of the Senate
feels aggrieved. There is no doubt
about this. . But while they may- not
have gotten exactly what they hoped
for in the way of a court review pro
vision in the rate bill, they can but
realize that they got all they could
hope for and much more than they
hoped for six months back and the
glory, whatever there is of it, will go
to the President anyhow. The Pres
ident has achieved "a victory in secur
ing the passage of any rate legislation
and as he has come ouhin favor-of the
Allison Amendment, conferring the
broadest sort of a reviewing power on
the courts, it is fair to suppose that
this provision will be satisfactory and
accomplish the end. intended. The
power of the President as a party
leader has also been demonstrated.
He has driven his coach over a bad
place in the road and he is not spilled
any of the passengers either. It is a,
greater victory than history will ac- j
cord President Cleveland, for it has
been accomplished without disrupting
the party.
Whether Mr. Chandler will issue an
other statement, is of course impos
sible to say. But the assurance has
been given from the White House that
nothing further will be said from that
end and the rate bill is apt to pass in
to history with the broad court re
view amendment attached and without
the President being compelled to share
the victory with any members of the
opposition.
P. H. D'Arcy, of Salem, one of the
legal lights of the state, and a died
in-the-wool democrat, flew the track
when candidate Withycombe was at
tacked because of being of foreign
birth, and came out in denunciation
of such despicable conduct. Then
came a long labored article in the
Portland Journal abusing D'Arcy for
his "flop , and of the same date came
similar letter from Napoleon Davis
condemning the same thing. He, too,
believes the abuse heaped on Withy
combe to be unjust and "kicks over
the traces." Thus that which was
thought to be a sure means of encom
passing the defeat of the wily doctor
from Corvallis has proven a "boom
erang" and seems to be doing the
man it was intended to help more
harm than good. The Spokesman,
(Roseburg).
O
DEMOCRATS AS MUDSLINGERS
Those voters who hoped to see the
contest for Governor conducted in a
decent and dignified manner have
been doomed to disappointment. It
will be noticed, however, that , all the
mud-slinging has come from the Dem
ocratic press. Some of these attacks
are nothing short of contemptible.
For this very good reason, aside from
the fact that Dr. Withycombe is a
clean, able man, and capable of fill
ing, the office to which he aspires,
every Republican in Oregon should
cast his vote for the Republican can
didate. The spirit manifested toward
Dr. Withycombe by the Democratic
newspapers' should be rebuked. If
Governor Chamberlain can win out
by fair and decent methods, well and
good. But if his managers think they
can pull him through by continuing
their present style of warfare, let them
continue it and see. The voters of
Oregon are like those of every other
state in the Union in that they love
justice and fair play. Dallas Observer.
THE
KIND OF SENATOR
BOURNE WOULD MAKE.
MR.
It is up to the Republicans of Ore
gon to seriously consider what kind
of senator Jonathan Bourne, of Port
land, would make.
HIS LOYALTY TO THE STATE
OF HIS ADOPTION, TO ITS BUSI
NESS INTERESTS AND MATERIAL
INDUSTRIES IS ESTABLISHED.
His devotion to principle and un
swerving advocacy of what he believ
es is right has been demonstrated
many times.
What other man in Oregon would
have taken up the cause of the direct
primary law and staked his political
future on that enactment of the peo
ple? Mr. Bourne did it, and the peo
ole, regardless of party, OWE IT TO
HIM THAT THE. LAW WAS NOT
SET ASIDE, NULLIFIED AND
TRAMPED UNDER FOOT IN ITS
FIRST TRIAL.
For be it remembered that the ma
chine politicians of both parties jcurse
the direct primary- law, and arepray-
ing to be delivered therefrom.
With herculean vigor, with a valor
born of intense loyalty to principles
that underlie popular government, and
adamantine firmness. Bourne has
baljled for the letter and spirit of the
law.
Casting aside personality, if the first
man goes to the United States Senate
from Oregon BY THE DIRECT VOICE
AND DELIBERATE VOTE OF THE
PEOPLE, IT WILL BE DUE "TO THE

Importance of the Teeth
When a pretty girl parts rosy lips and reveals' de
cayed teeth, inflamed gums and a disagreeable
breath, how quickly the charm is dispelled, and
how painful and mortifying must it be to her to
b j . e victim of such a condition.
Many adies whose faces are unattractive in re
pose, become positively charming when their
smiles reveal clean, white teeth, well cared for.
Though ladies may be dressed in the richest ap
" parel, with eyes enchanting and features perfect,
if they have decayed and broken teeth, diseased
gums and foul breath, their friends cannot ap
proach them without a feeling of repugnance.
