If last payment is ot credited, kindly notify us, and t matter will receive our atuntion THE GROWTH OF A NEWSPAPER. Tho growth of a newspaper usually keeps pace with the growth of a town. Sometimes the newspaper, hav ing unbounded faith in the future pros perity of the town, keeps a few paces ahead. This is frequently the caao for the right kind of a newspaper Is not content to stand still, but must pro Kress. It is with this thought In mind that the Enterprise this week placed an order for a new cylinder press, which will cost close to $4000, and will give this office an equipment that cannot be equalled In Oregon outside of the city of Portland. The hew machine is a Miehle, and while this name may mean little to the average reader, It simply stands for all that is perfection in the manufacture of flat-bed presses. This press has a type capacity of 34x49 Inches, aside from the mar gins, and just as soon as it is installed, which will probably be about Septem ber 1, The Enterpdlse will be enlarg ed to a 7-coIumn size, giving its read ers 256 additional inches of trading matter each week, with no additional charge. The business of The Enterprise is growing, and we expect it to continue to grow, and we intend to have the equipment necessary to meet this in creased growth. This new Miehle press, and Illustration of which is shown in this issue, is capable of handling any class of color printing. There is nothing in the printing line that It cannot do. The size of the machine is 14& feet in length over all, and 9 1-3 feet wide. It stands 5 feet and 9 inches high on the floor, with a practical speed of 1900 impressious per hour and a weight of 1VA tons. We could tell you a lot more about it, but instead, we will just invite our friends and customers in to see the machine in operation. We take considerable pride in this plant of ours, and we take more pride in our production of the best newspa per that Clackamas County ever had ROAD SYSTEMS FOR NATIONAL FORESTS. The office of Public Roads of the De partment of Agriculture is to co-op- erate with the Forest Service in draw ' lng up plans for comprehensive sys tems of roads and trails on National Forests. For the last two years Congress has provided funds for permanent improve . meats on National Forests, and a large part of the money thus made avail able has been and is being used for road and trail building. The amount 'is too small, however, in comparison , with the total area of the Forests, to make possible more than a very small beginning. With thicker settlement and increasing use of the Forests, good roads will become more and more a crying necessity. The object of securing the help of the OSlce of Good Roads is to make the work take the line that will not merely serve temporary convenience, but also count for most .in the end. By building each year with reference to a carefully worked-out plan the danger of indirected effort will be es oaped. During the present Summer an en gineer of the Office of Roads will go oer the ground on several of the For ests, and draw up plans which will be submitted to the Forester, and will serve to guide subsequent work. Where the roads planned for. cannot -be built, trails will, so far as possible, be made to follow the courses laid out with the expectation that later they will be converted into roads. The roads, trails, telephone lines and fire lines already constructed on FISHING TACKLE The place to buy Large Assortment Prices Reasonable C. G. Miller 0BEG0N CITY The Home of Sportsmen National Forests are proving of great value both In the work of Are protec tion and In serving the convenlonco of the public Tho further this work can bo carried tho greater will bo tho use fulness of the Forests to tho surround ing regions FRAUDS THAT ARE NOT. No man believes It is right for a prosecuting otllelal to hold men under indictment for years, simply to use them as witnesses. Yet this Is what is being done in the I'uitod States at Portland. True it is that the Govern ment Is tardily releasing some of tho men against whom there Is no evi dence and never was, but justice has not been done to others. In the Hooth case, u review of which is given in The Enterprise news col umns, the situation Is rightly summed up by the Oregonltm in these words: "No one expected a verdict of con viction against Singleton, and tho Booths, not even the prosecution, If common reports are to be believed; or, If the prosecution did look for con viction, it is not easy to understand why, for tho Government had no evi dence against H. A. Hooth and Single ton nothing more than Its own sus picions, which could not be material ized into credible testimony; and U had very litle more than the record of palpable official misconduct against J. H. Booth, who was receiver i the Roseburg Land Office, and who had endeavored to capitalize his Federal position into schemes for private pro fit. "Why was R A. Booth ever indict ed? He was indicted because the Gov ernment officials were determined to 'get' him for reasons quite well un derstood in Oregon. He was indicted, and rested under indictment, thus be ing branded as a criminal for more than three years. This trial Is, let it be hoped, the end of this sort of busi ness In Oregon a business that is certainly no credit to the administra tion of justice through the Government prosecutors, and it is an outrage on the men, Blnger Hermann Included, who have been for years denied their constitutional right of speedy trial." F. J. Lonergan Locates Here. Frank J. Lonergan, of Portland, will in future be associated with Attorney Franklin T. Griffith. Mr. Lonergan came up Tuesday from Portland. He has been admitted to practice In Illi nois, Indiana and Oregon, and is a graduate of oNtre Dame University. Last year he was in the office of At torney R. W. Wilbur, and since then tas been an instructor in Columbia University. Mr. Lonergan is famous on the football field, and was captain of the Multnomah Amateur Athletic Club team last season.

This, however, is not true of the Bank of Oregon City whlsh welcomes new ac counts, whether of $1.00, or $1000, and the same courtesy and service Is accorded the small depositor as those in more fortunate circumstan ces. It is our object and wish to serve the public in finan cial matters in a manner that shall be satisfactory to all old or young, rich or poor.
