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

Integrity of party government im
plies ihe right of the IndiviiiuafTu
rebel against party mandates when
his own sense of duty requires "mm
to do so.
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.

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 !

With a bank is a modern business convenience and
these who have never tried it have missed many
advantages. "We open checking accounts for firms
and individuals and supply them with check books
so that they can draw against their deposits in fav

They thus have all the convenience of having the

there would be if the money was kept in the house.
