Francis J. 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.

the man cannot be ascertained, but
he had evidently been dead for more
than a year. There was nothing left

Distressing Case.
Miss Anita Hensley McCnrver,
president of tho Clacknmus County
Humane Society, gave tho following
story of cruelty to an animal to Tho t
Enterprlso this week: I
"Last week some cruel person j
scalded a dog belonging to MIsh Amy
Johnson. Tbe cose Is being liivestl-;
gated by tho Humana Society and any
Information In regard to tho matter
will be thankfully received. To tor
ture a dumb animal Is tho crime of a
coward, and he who Is capnblo of It
would commit almost any crime not
requiring courage. The object of thti
Humane Society Is for tho prevention
uf cruelty to every living creature
by all proper meuns Including hu
mane education. However there are
some persons you cannot tench much
as we regret It. except by punish
ment, because tholr cruelty comes
from wickedness. Wo owe to our
selves the duty not to be brutal, and
wo owe to (kid the duty of truatlnR
all of his creatures according to his
own perfections of love and mercy."
