WILL THEY RETURN f If William Jennings Hryan, stiil holding fast to the ruinous dogma of free silver, imagines that the patriotic sound money Democrats who opposed his candidacy In ISi'G and lSi'O will stultify themselves by supporting luiu this year, l.e is doomed to oil over whelming disappointment. His studied silence on the financial uuestiou will not deceive the lUdepeudimt members of his party who revolted against the liiyuu luenace of repudiation and dis honor t.t.e Jiars ago. His policy is quae a hateful to them now us it was Uieu. They remember thai in nearly .very one of bis speeecnes in 1 5. to tie insulted and sneered al lueui. as au naiuple, take the following irow his sptecu iu .Memphis, ieuu., un uciooer a of Uiac year: "1 waul to leu you what 1 lold outers: lliut u you wins, me go, a suuiuurd is aocoiuie.y neces&ury lo lue weiiarti oi uus country, you uiane a grmc uiisiahe it you vole lor me, because, ii i cau ueip it, ue gum suuumu wou t biay lu uiis cuuuiry lor uiouieUL" air. urjau has always insisted thai Uieie suouiu noi auu cuuiu not ue any cvuitiiuui.se uelweea luose who op posed tue goia suuiuum ana those muo supporiva it- at is ou recuru iu bCuics ui tusiauces as ueuouuciug lis ueuiocratic supporters as uieJi "wuo wul lo Use lue party organ ization lor private gain ana Ineir coun try ior puouc pmuaer." tie nas nou litu ue iA:uiociau leaving uieir party ueeaUse ui us advocacy oi iree silver to ' We lucir Oufc-gage wiu Luem una nul tieei 10 eowe oacK," auu ue nas uuooica uiai nu uoes not uow oi a bui oi uieu ne suouiu rawer lose luaa tue goia Democrats. , let jar. uryui, iu spite of his lntol- erani lieauneni oi tue souua money iieuiocrais, appeals lo cnensu tue nope luai they will compromise wiin conscience and voi lor him Uus year. ue lorgeis tual lueir revolt la lssii ' was inspireu D aevoiion lu a moral i rauier man a political principle.

There Isn't a shred of evidence to ; show- that Mr. Bryan's position on the coinage question has changed. Tbeie Is every reason to believe that the at titude of the sound money Democrats ' remains absolutely unchanged. That the twice-defeated advocate of free silver, repudiation and dishonor should expect the support this year of the self-respecting Democrats who voted for his overthrow in 1896 and 1900, is simply another manifestation of his ridiculous notion that they are either j Cowards or fools. I up to the mark of the 1907 inhibition. The Enterprise, along with other, feared that (he removal of tho Kalr to Canny, might result In localising the whole matter, and making out of It a Canny Fair, Instead of a County Kalr. This danger was not realUed but we are not yet out of the wixids. The Fair was disappointing iruniany respects to those who hoped for too much from tho first year. Hut, every, thing considered, the people of Clack amas County who Judge carefully, have only words of praise for the men who gave their time for months to make the second annual exhibition a success. It would be harsh, Indeed, to heap criticism upon these men. w hose only reward Is the progress and growth of the county. Next Year's Fair will be better. The stockholders of the association should, we believe, continue In office the men who labored under adverse conditions, and give them an oppor tunity to show what they can do in With n Confederate soldier holding the War Tort folio, the first one from Ms section that has hold it since Jeff Davis. there s small wonder that we see so little of the bloody shirt. SOCIETY The IVrthlck Club met Friday at the home of Mrs. Eber A. Chapman. The afternoon whs devoted to the election of officers and outlining the course of study for the winter's work, and was followed bv a social hour. The following officers were elected President, Mrs. Samuel O. Dlllnmn vice-president, Mrs. Anna II. Hayes secretary, Mrs. !wellyn Adams treasurer. Miss Muriel Stevens. The next meeting will be held Friday, Oc tober 23, at the home of Mrs. Carl Joehnke, when Wagner's opera, "Tho Flying Dutchman," will bo the subject for tho afternoon's study, followed by selections from the opera. The ladles of St. Paul's Guild enter tained the members of the vested choir of tho Episcopal church at the home of Hev. and Mrs. T. K. How on Friday evening, and a most enjoyable evening was spent In music and games. In a goose cutting contest Miss Marlon Lowthwntte was awarded the first prize, and Klbert Kragelund second prize. Again we liar that the Dutch have takeu Holland, but Venezuela well. that's another story. . 1 1 .' . in ... J It is beginning to be suspected that there is no bottom to that letter grab bag that Edtor Hearst is carrying from stump to stump. When It Is seen that a New York paper has proposed, agitated, pro moted, ratified and signed a Chinese American alliance, who can say that the power of the press is declining? It Is said that there are plenty more with the goods who have not yet been apprehended, but just wait until Mr. Hearst reads some more letters. The season Is approaching when a little caloric from the radiator will be more appreciated than all the hot air of the politicians. Having rid politics of Mr. Foraker and Mr. Haskell, Mr. Hearst may row turn his attention to getting rid of Rldder. By Fall a new term will have been coined to describe the political status of our statesmen. To be known as an "Oil Senator" will be an unequiv ocal description of a man's uncertain membership in the "Millionaire's Club." AFTER THE COUNTY FAIR. The howlers of calamity and the sceptics who were loud In their de nunciation aud forecasts of failure when the Clackamas County Fair was taken to its permanent site at Canby, ' will have to admit that they were ' wrong. The Fair was a success finan-; dally. Canby is In the center of a rich : farming district, with good roads lead- ! lug to It, and on Friday and Saturday, j the second and third days of the Fair, thousands of people came from every ! direction. It Is perhaps true that the exhibits were not so numerous as i last year, but this is a bad year for j products of the soil, and it was only the collective displays that were not !
