AFTER THE BATTLE.
The Republicans of Clackamas Coun
ty, with a normal majority of some
thing like 1500, went to the polls Mon
day and elected a Democratic sheriff,
a Democratic assessor, and gave
Gwrpe Chamberlain a plurality of
something like 500 for United States
Senator. Incidentally they elected 10
Republicans to county offices.
Every voter may take unto himself
the lesson from Monday s election. It
la apparent that when we elect a
Democratic official, he Is good for two
terms, and in the case of assessor,
this means eight years.. We may also
took forward to a beautiful factional
scrap for the office of sheriff two years
fcence. The Republicans themselves
are responsible for these conditions,
and the Democrats are only to be com
mended for their shrewd, adroit po
litical manipulation that enables them
to show the Republicans of Clackamas
County and Oregon a trick or two
worth while.
We have given our Commissioner a
plurality of about 450 and coroner
300. These figures may be regarded
by some as great Republican victor
lea, but the Enterprise does not look
upon them as such. The legislative
ticket has been elected by something
like the normal party vote, and with
Statement No. 1 in their bonnets they
may now march proudly up to Salem
and there vote for a Democrat to go
to Washington to uphold the policies
of Theodore Roosevelt. The criticism
that was directed at The Enterprise
for its stand against the tSatement
fcas quieted to a degree, since the
election of Mr. Chamberlain. This
newspaper plainly showed Chamber
lain's strength and was censured for
admitting the possibility of the de
feat of the Republican nominee. We
have shown wtiat'a Republican Oregon
will do under the direct primary sys
tem as exemplified by Statement No,
1.
Clackamas County has swatted pop
ular education by killing the county
high school measure and voting heavi
ly against the appropriation for the
support and maintenance of our State
University. The endorsement of
School Superintendent Gary, against
whom a hard fight was made, is ex
tremely gratifying to those who have
the interests of the public schools at
heart.
The friends of the Secretary of the
Treasury, George Bruce Cortelyou, are
making an active canvass to ascertain
the sentiment toward him as a candi
date for the Vice-Presidential nom
ination on the Republican ticket. Sec
retary Cortelyou stands high with la
bor leaders, having risen by his own
eCfors and merits from a comparative
ly humble place in the government
service to one of exceptional honor
and he enjoys an unsullied record as
a public man. He represents, also,
both elements in the party, having
been the friend of Hanna and McKin
ley and an appointee of Roosevelt.
Secretary Cortelyou has not aligned
himself with any faction in his State,
New York, but is popular with all.
Representative Sherman is, also, men
1 tioned as a New Yorker of Vice Presi
dential proportions, and while his
friends have not made much advance
thus far with their campaign in his
behalf, they point to the highly cred
itable record of Mr. Sherman in the
House, his geniality and personal pop
ularity. Mr. Sherman's work on the
Congressional Campaign Committee
has won for hira the high regard and
loyal support of all Republican mem
bers of Congress.

In a current magazine Speaker Can
non has an article on, "How a bill
becomes a law." The general publio
would be much more Interested in an
article on Why Bills do pot become
laws. Speaker Cannon could furnish
more information on this subject per
haps, than ajiy other one man.
This session of Congress has broken
all records In the number of bills in
troduced, the total being 29,125.
Thirty-eight treaties have been rati
fied and made public, more than had
been ratified during the twenty years
preceding.
Accurate figures are not yet obtain
able, but a careful estimate put the
total appropriations of this session of
Congress at $1,020,000,000. This Is
$100,000,000 more than has been ex
pended by any other Congress.
If you want sunshine In your lives,
come to Oregon City next Saturday
and enjoy the festivities of Booster
and Market Day. The business men
have something fine in the way of en
joyment in store for all of you.
This month four years ago the
United States took hold of the Pana
ma Canal Zone, and began the solu
tion of a problem mainly to be solved
by hard and honest work.
