Heney bas probably suc ceeded in mapping out a thorny path for Fulton. The famous hired prose cutor bas called Fulton nearly every name in tbe catalogue. True it Is that be bas not proved bis charges against Oregon's senior senator, but he has worked the publicity racket to such an extent that there are peo ple, how many we cannot say, who are ready to believe that Mr. Fulton has done things that should place him In the back row. : It is Fulton and Cake for it The latter is presumably a popular man, and polled a large number of votes two years ago, but not quite so many as Jonathan, else be would not be running for office now. His ability as a statesman Is unknown. He ex pects to ride into office, as Mr. Bourne has done, on the hobby horse of Statement No. 1; that great Socialistic-Democratic principle, fostered by Brother U'Ren, who. declares that he reserves the privilege to change his politics as often as he deems expedi ent, and who openly states his Inten tion to promote the candidacy of Statement No. 1 Democrats in opposi tion to men who are true Republicans, and whose party choice is quite good enough for them. The trouble with most reformers is that they waste their time and energy trying to re form some one else. ' AFTERTHE PRIMARIES. Republicans of Clackamas county have something to think about in their allegiance to party. The direct pri mary law is an effective weapon in the hands of the people. It is not far wrong to assert that the law, as it bas been tested, favors the candidates of the minority party, whose members smirk with delight at the thought of the Republicans becoming embroiled in factional troubles, to tbe possible gain of Democracy in Oregon. Two years ago the Republicans had a number of candidates for sheriff. Under conditions that formerly pre vailed one of these men would have been nominated by a representative county convention of Republicans. But, with the direct primary as a slingshot, there were Democrats who proceeded to register as Republicans, in order to participate in the affairs of the majority party and to foment discord in its ranks. The result is well known. We are now facing the cond.'.ion again. The Republicans have four candidates for assessor, and as many for commissioner, and of these eight men, six are going to be disappointed. They are all good Republicans, and they are going into this contest for nomination with equal chances. Now is the time for them t6 consider the possibility of defeat, and at the same time to consider their attitude to wards their sucessful rivals between April 17 and the first of June. No soreness should enter into the coming campaign. No water should be turned onto Democratic wheels by an inclination on the part of these six men to sulk and quietly antagon ize the two who shall bask in the smile of fortune. The Enterprise pledges its hearty support to the candidates for nomina tion who are to be chosen for places on the ticket. The men who fail to obtain a sufficient number of votes to secure a position on the ballot can do no less. The right way to insure party success at the June election Is for every Republican to endorse, with out qualification the candidates of the party, and it is foolish for the Re publicans of Clackamas County, with their huge normal majority, to trans fer their faith. Hasty political action Is usually a matter of regret. IL The criminal docket at the regular April term of the Clackamas County Circuit Court will be large. There are seven ment to be tried on a charge of murder in connection with the slaying of a Hindu near Boring last October. Otto F. Olson, accused of embezzling school funds, and Leroy Carden, indicted for assault, will al so be placed on trial. One of the Canby saloon cases, In which the jury disagreed, will be heard again. This formidable array is unusual for peace ful old Clackamas. We are now going to be fired Into the throes of another local option cam flc cruise, while some American edi tors, in their blindpess of partisan an imosity, could not or would not un derstand the cruise as anything but a menace to the peace of the world.
