Subscribers will find the date of ex plration stamped on their papers fol lowing their name. If last payment is not credited, kindly notify us, and the matter will receive our attention TRUE REPUBLICANISM. The Enterprise has no wish to at tempt to read out of the Republican party men whose opinions are open w question politically, nattier, we prefer to strengthen the rank and file and swell the majority of the Repub licans In Clackamas. 1 At the same time we cannot refrain from quoting a paragraph rrora a speech made last week In Portland by Mr. U'Ren, who nag a perfect right to his own beliefs, even though they have a Socialistic or Democratic taint. But he cares nothing at all for the Republican par ty and says so. In these words: The very worst Deomcrat you can end to the Legislature who aubscrib th to Statement No. 1 Is far better than the very best Republican you can sena mere who insists on his par ty electing the Senator. I am first an American, next a Republican. I am going to keep this fight up until June ana in every county where I have an Opportunity to speak I will support the Democratic Statement No. 1 can didate rather than the Republican who la opposed to Statement No. 1. That ia the kind of a Republican I am.' I shall change parties as often as to me seems expedient, and shall run for office and stop running when It seems advisable. If, as contended by some of our brethren, Statement No. 1 is good Re- publican doctrine, which it is not, why should it be necessary far the nigh priest to openly, declare his in tention of bolting the ticket at this Btage of the game. It is silly to say that political par ties are not necessary. We have al ways had them and we shall always have them. And Mr. Schuebel,; who is Mr. U'Ken's law partner, hit the nail on the head at the meeting of me KcpuDiican county central com mlttee In Oregon City two weeks ago, wnen ne saiu: .. I am a Republican because It Is the positive party, the party that stands for something. There must be a negative party and this negative siue is represented by the Democrats. itepuDiicans or Clackamas county are not going to vote for Democrats at the June election. They have plen ty of good men in their own fold who are worthy and who will recolve the united support of their party. And now comes Governor George Chamberlain, full of honors heaped upon him by the Republicans of Ore gon, and aspires to a seat in the Unit ed States senate, Intimating that be will support the policies of Theodore Roosevelt. But everybody knows that as Senator Chamberlain, ho would vote with his party against Republican measures that have the, Indorsement of the President. He would be given minor committee assignments and in short would be able to acomplish lit tle or nothing in . the way of legisla tion that woulud be beneficial to this State. How long is the Republican party of Oregon going to e fooled into electing Democrats to office? When, ' after Bome terrible disaster, such as occurred In the Colllngwood school, the authorities make Inquiries regarding local conditions, were 18 always some fool to say "oh yes, lock the barn door after the horse is stol en." And yet is It not better to pro fit by such experience than to wait until one occurs nearer home? It Is no use for Emma Goldman to complain that she Is not allowed to speak her mind. She has had foiir years in which to do it without inter ruption from the police and if that has not sufficed she should go where there Is no time. i Special Sale.

We are told that the plan of well known Clackamas County citizens to construct a railway from Oregon City to Mololla, via Beaver Crook, will be revivee, and that a determined effort will be made to obtain a right of way, that will he necessary before con struction is commenced. 'Ihe n trauco of a railway line into that im mensely rich section of Clackamas would do wondors In tiie way of de velopment and the people residing near tlio proposed lino owe li to them selves to help along this project in every conceivable) way. Tiie recent stringency In Eastern money marts has not assiatod tlio pio niotlon of railway projocis In the northwest, and financiers uf tlio Har rlman type are not going to turn tm-ir attention to a short lin-j of track in Clackamas County, rho interests of the Incorporators of the Oregon City, Heaver Creek & Molalla Rallwny lie In the growth and development of Clackamas county, and their1 Interests are Identical with those of the farm ers and business men. This lielns the case, it Is to be nxpectod that re quests for rights of way will l-o elite r fully granted and that no obstacles will bo placed In the way of the schomo to knit together tlio agricul tural and commercial relatl ns of our people.
