    6RE00N CITY ENTERPRISE, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 7, 1008.
LIBERAL IN
HIS POLICY
SECRETARY GARFIELD PLACES
NEW CONSTRUCTION ON
LAND LAWS.
SETTLERS HAVE CHANCE
Every Bona Fide Entryman Will Be
Assisted By Department to Es
tablished a Home on Public
. .Domain.
Secretary of the Interior Garfield's
report Is calculated to aid honest en
trymen In obtaining land under the
present laws. ...
It was the first and formost desire
of Secretary Hltchcook to indict, and
if possible, convict every man who
had knowingly or otherwise deliber
ately or Innocently violated any of the
land laws. He never favored civil
suits; ho wanted to land every offend
er into the criminal court, and he
carried out his purpose as far as pos
sible. In his report Secretary Gar
field says:
Whenever the facts warrant I con
fer with persons who are accused of
. using or holding land illegally, and. 'if
possible and proper, effect a setye
ment or obtain return of the lands to
the government without litigation.
Under the former administration
there was no such effort to settle cases
of this character out of the courts.
Brery offender, no matter what his
motive, looked for a criminal court
record if detected. Incidentally, while
the Government made a striking re
cord for convictions in Oregon, it
lost much of the land in controversy,
whereas the government is today re
covering land illegally taken, and in
nocent offenders are besmirched un
cessarily. It Is the purpose of Secretary Gar
field to so conduct the Interior De
partment and so interpret the public
land laws as to actually aid every
bona, fide entryman who is endeavor
ing to establish a home on the public
domain. Secretary Garfield holds
that the land laws were enacted for a
purpose, and so long as the law is not
abused, he intends that the entryman
shall enjoy its provisions, and so long
as he acts in good faith, shall have
the encouragement and aid of repre
sentatives of the government. In other
words. Secretary Garfield is proceed
ing on the theory that every man is
honest until proven guility; he is hu
man to recognize that honest men
may make errors which do not lay
them, or should not lay them, liable to
the law.
Under Secretary Hitchcock, ttie en
tire force of the Interior Department
and General Land Office, on special in
structions from the Secretary, pro-
ceeded on the theory that the public- (
land laws were enacted to prevent
men acquiring public lands; every
technical failure, to comply with the
law was regarded as ground for crimi
nal prosecution; every obstacle was
placed in the path of the honest, as ;
well as the dishonest entryman, and
Mr. Hitchcock retired from office with j
the astounding record of having actu-.
ally deprived hundreds of honest sett
lers of their lands, while he permitted
shrewd thieves to gobble up large
tracts under his very nose. The re-
port of Secretary Garfield will carry
encouragement 10 every eniryman w-no
is striving to acquire public land for
an honest purpose.
FIRST IN POLITICAL RACE.
Greenman, Ramsby and Nelson
Nominating Petitions.
File
The flrstt hree men to file nominat
ing petitons In anticipation of the di
rect primary nominating election in
Aprl are County Clerk Greenman,
County Recorder Ramsby and County
Assessor Nelson. Mr. Nelson filed his
petition yesterday afternoon and on
the ballot opposite his name will ap:
pear these words: "Equal assessment
for all." All three of the men are
Republicans and are candidates for
renomination and election, and all of
them have made excellent records dur
ing their respective terms of office. So
far as known, there will be no oppo-'
sition to the renomination of Mr.
Greenman and Mr. Ramsby, but As
sessor Nelson will probably have a ri
val In the person of George F. Horton,
who has served as County Clerk and
postmaster of Oregon City.

his wife and three daughters probably
on a few weeks, and will Immediately

dence on . his property. The ranch
consists of 10 acres in strawberries, 10
acres In apples and the remainder In
pat tire, and there Is running water on
the land. Mr. Albright recently sold
his home In Oregon City to W. 1. Haw

GREAT TRUSTS
Ing dependants should not be required
to bring suit. The compensation

same principle should be made applic
able to nrivate employers.
It is all wrong to use the Injunction I'V the action of National Government,
to prevent the entirely proper and i The defenders and apologists of the
legitimate action of labor organlzn- j great corporations are not only prov
tions. The fact that the punishment ' InR false to tho people, but are laying
for violation of an Injunction must be
without intervention of a Jury furn
ishes a reason why the process should
be surrounded with safeguards.
If some way of remedying tho
abuses is not found, indignation may
produce a revolt against the whole use
of Injunctions. Men of property can
not afford to trust to anything save
the spirit of justice and fair play.
The usual result of Inflation (of
railroad capitalization) is to impose
upon the public an unnecessary but
everlasting tax, while only a few
speculators are benefited. In fixing
the charges of our railroads it is bet
ter to allow too liberal than too scanty
earnings, otherwise railway develop
ment may not keep pace with the de
mand. The attempt to provide against
all combinations of whatever charac
ter must necessarily be either futile
or mischievous and sometimes both
Real good can come only by a thor
ough and continuing supervision over
the acts of the combination in all
parts.
Each and every one of these laws
would represent part of the campaign
against privileges, to make great property-holders
realize that property has
its duties no less than Its rights.
There is no moral difference between
gambling at cards or lotteries or on
the racetrack and gambling In the
stock market. One method is just as
pernicious as the other, and In the
evil worked far greater. The Federal
Government could at least act by for
bidding the use of the mails, tele
graph and telephone wires for mere
gambling in stocks and futures.
Certain wealthy men, whose con
duct should be abhorred by every man
of ordinary, decent conscience, and
who commit the hideous wrong of
teaching our young men that pheno
menal business success must ordinar
ily be based on dishonety, have banded
together to work for a reaction. The
administration and those who support
its views are not engaged in an as
sault on property, but are strenuous
upholders of the rights of property.
We attack only the corrupt men of
wealth who find in the purchased poli
tician the most efficient instrument of
corruption and in the purchased news
paper the most efficient defender of
corniDtion. It is not the Dunnet. but
the. strong, cunning men and the
mjghty forces working for evil behind
and through the puppets with whom
we have to deal Such attacks (of
radicalism) become inevitable if de
cent citizens permit those rich- men
whose lives are corruqt and evil to
domineer in swollen pride, unchecked
and unhindered, over the destinies of
this country. Every measure for hon
esty in busines that has been passed
during the last six years has benn op
posed by these men.
When we are able to put the real
wrongdoer in prison, this is what we
strive to do; this is what we have
actually done with some very wealthy
criminals. The Government has put
behind the bars with impartial sever
ity the powerful financier, the power
ful politician, the rich 'land-thief, -.the
rich contractor. All their wealth end
power cannot protect them. It often
happens that the effort to Imprison
Is futile, while it is possible to fine.
The corporation lawyers and their
employers are mainly responsible for
this state of things. That stockholder
is not innocent who purchases stock
in a corporation whose methods and
management he knows to be corrupt.
The apologists of successful diahon
ty by their acts have "unsettled busi
ness.'! They have hurt honest busi
ness men, honest workingmen, honest
farmers and now they clamor against
the truth being told. The outcry
against stopping dishonest practices
among wrongdoers who happen to be
wealthy is similar to the outcry ;

T J. CLEETON MAY

UNCONFIRMED WASHINGTON RE
PORT SAYS SCHUEBEL WILL
BE WITHDRAWN.
t
It Is stated In a dispatch from Wash
ington that the name of Christian
Schuebel, of Oregon City, will be with
drawn and that the nomination of
Thomas J. Cleeton, of Portland, for
United District Attorney for Oregon
will be sent to the Senate by the Pre
sident.
Mr. Schuebel declines to make any
statement for publication and will nei
ther confirm nor deny the report that
be Is to be assistant tn 'tie District
Attorney, but it is believed that he
will reuse this position If tendered to
him.
Senator Bourne has made a strong
fight to have Mr. Schuebel's nomina
tion confirmed but it Is apparent that
by reason of Senator Fulton's Influen
tial position on the judiciary commit
tee, he has been able to prevent con
firmation.
RAILROADS GETTING HONEST.
George Miller Has a Tobacco Pouch
Returned to Him.
George R. Miller has returned from
a visit at Mount Angel and Silverton.
At the former town he was the guest
of Talbert Hook. On his way from
Silverton to Mount Angel Mr. Miller
went into the smoker and took a pull
at hl3 pipe, placing a sack of tobacco
on the ledge of the car window, while
engaged In the process of filling his
Kvla Wa f..rri oil ahnllt thp uflrk of
tobacco and left it on the car and was
greatly surprised yesterday to receive
by mall the half empty sack. Mr.
Miller has no idea where It came from,
as his name was not on the sack and
there was no one on the car whom he
knew. He is Inclined to believe that
the Southern Pacific Company is look
ing out for the belongings of its pas
sengers and that the big corporations
are getting honest.
NEW CROSSING AT SIXTH.
Southern Pacific Offers to Build Rein
forced Concrete Bridge.
The City Council, Wednesday night,
disposed of a vast amount of business
of a routine nature. The Pacific I ele-
phone & Telegraph ' Company signi
fied its acceptance of its new fran
chise, which is practically the same a;)
the franchise of the Home Telephone
Company, granted one year ago. Tho
company pays a license ot xiuu per
year and must permit other companies
to use its poles, when the city so or
ders. The Southern Pacific Company made
a proposition to construct a reinforced
concrete bridge over Its tracks St
some point near Sixth street to be den
ignated by the city. This matter was
referred to the committee on streets
and public proprty, and will, no doubt,
taineq,. me cny win nave 10 nunu me
steps ana approacnes to tne nriuge
and it has not yet been determined Just
exactly where these approaches will bo
located.
Hawley Rents Charman House.
Wlllard P. Hawley has rented the
home of Mrs. Lena Charman, on the
corner of Main and Ninth streets, and
will occupy the residence when he re

a tion.
GLADSTONE
IS AROUSED
PEOPLE STRENUOUSLY OBJECT
TO NEW SCHOOL DISTRICT
AT JENNINGS LODGE,
HEARING NEXT TUESDAY
Parkplace Residents Will Try to Hold
Gladstone In Line, But Have a
Hard Proposition Ahead.
Tho people of Gladstone bio up In
arms hecmiHO of the petition of the ro
sldentH of Jennings Lodge for tho for
mation ot iv new school district ut the
latter place, out of territory composed
of the western portion of Gladstone
and the Southern part of Concord. For
several yenrs the Gladstone pwplo
have been quietly biding their tluio
until the opportune moment should ar
rive wher their strength would permit
an attempt to have a school of their
own. mid tho effort of tho residents of
Jennings Uitlgu to slice a piece off ot
Gladstone's territory has only precipi
tated matters.
The petition of Jennings Lodge hnH
aluiiit 25 signatures, nnd It said that
In tho proxsed territory for tho new
district there are about 37 children of
school age. On tho other hand there
are within the limits of Gladstone
proper probably 125 children of school
nge. guaranteeing them a lurge graded
school.
Gladstone Is now and has been for
a long time a part of thei Parkplace
district. Tho Parkplace school Is on
the opposite side of the Clnckumas
River from Gladstone, ami tho resi
dents of tho latter place argue that
the river Is the real proper division
line. Parkplace has a line schliol, with
a complete high school course, offer
ing exceptional advantages to the people-
of Its districted naturally does
not desire to lose Gladstone, whlrh
would result In a decrease In the
values of taxable property. of the dis
trict. For that reason there Is every
probability that an attempt will be
made to assist the people of Jennings
Lodge In the creation of their new
district, for -the portion cut off from
Gladstone would work no material In
jury to Parkplace, but might place
the people of Gladstone In a position
where they would not be able to have
a separate district of their own.
In the office of County School Sup
erintendent Gary.who Is secretary of
the district boundary board, there was
filed yesterday afternoon a remon
strance against tho Jennings Ixxlgo
movement and with It a petition for
the establishment of a new district
In Gladstone. Tho same names appear
on both the remonstrance and petition
and the list embraces every resident
and property holder of Gladstone The
remonstrance say. In pnrt:
"That while" we concede thot the
petitioners have some ground for tho
relief demanded, on account of tho
great distance to the present school
In District No. 48, yet we bellevo that
the relief sought for would not be ade
quate, as a school supported by so
small a constituency could not afllord
adequate school privileges."
Along with the remonstrance a-
pl?t the proposition
of Jennings
Lodge cQmes the petition of the Glad
stone people for the establishment of
a new district, and the following argu
ments are presented In the petition:
"The present Hchoolhouse In Dls
DlBtrlct No. 48 (Parkplace) Is situated
on tho south side of the Clackamas
River In an Inconvenient location, dif
ficult of access, and at a great distance
from a great many of the school popu
lation who reside on the north side of
the Clackamas River.
"Tho population of said school dis
trict has been growing so fast as to
lead to a present congestion In the
schoolhousc, many of the schoolnxims
being overcrowded, thereby rendering
the school facilities Inadequate and
making It Imperative that a new
schoolhouse be erected at a very early
date.
"There are many small children re
siding in the territory north of the
Clackamas River who are of sclxxil
age and yet are too small to travel the
great distance necessary to reach the
present schoolhouse.
"The school population lying on the
northerly side of the Clackamas River
is rapidly growing In numbers, mak
Ing it necessary and now Imperative
that a school shall be erected In the
center of the population on the north
erly side of the river. The erection of

a HchoolhotiHo In Gladstone would ade

people living at or Hear Melilnim or

Pnrlipliioe evidently realizes that the
whole mutter lias reached a critical
stage and lias a tentative offer to pro
vide a one or two-room schoolhouxo
for (lliidstono In order that the younger
pupils may receive Instruction nearer
homo, providing (ilailHlono remains In
the, district. Tills proposition, how
ever, Is not satisfactory to Gladstone,
whoso residents know they have 125
children of school ago and believe they
are entitled to a district separate and
apart from 1'arkplaee, Jennings Ixulgo
or liny other place. There will prop
ably be a meeting within u very few
days at I'nrkpluco to give tlu people
of the district tin opiiortuiilty to dis
cuss the whole proposition, and per
haps arrive at u better understanding.
