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

RAILWAY TO MOLALLA.
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.
