DO YOU APPROVE OF BUSINESS
ENTERPRISER
Perhaps there are times when you
feci that some of the business men of
the city are not progressive enough
Ingrained In your nature Is an admir
ation for the "hustler," for the person
who does things who Improves what
ever he touches.
You admire the merchant who, In
brief space, takes a moribund store
and makes it glow with, life a credit
to the city. You are sure that, If
we had more such men, the city
would benefit amazingly.
A careful observer once noted the
coincidence that most large cities
were located on the banks of rivers.
It Is equally certain that most large
stores "happen" to be enterprising ad
vertisers. In fact, aggressive advertising Is
the one Infallible test of enterprise In
a merchant It stamps him progres
sive alive wise. All other "slims of

had been made by several Individuals
Including political enemies, of your
alleged connection with what has been
commonly known as the Oregon land
frauds, and that after having made a
most thorough Investigation I, as well

SOCIETY
The entertainment given at the
Shlvely Friday night was a very suc
cessful affair. The entertainment was
for the benefit of the rrvshytcrlmi
church, and a neat sum was tlie rv
suit, l.lttle Violet Ueaullau, who was
queen of the fairies, acted out her
part admirably. There were, about
50 young folks who took part In tho
cantata "The Fairies of the Season."
and they were prettily costumed to
represent the different seasons of the
year. Tho orchestra, under the su
pervision of leon lVIarie, compos
ed of six pieces, was an attraction of
the evening.
One of the most Interesting pro
grammes that tins been heard In Ore
gon City this season, was rendered
Friday night In the auditorium of Me
Uuighlln Institute. Every musical
number was of a high order and the
large sudlenct was very appreciative.

this a Plckon game was enjoyed In

was awarded the prUe. The prise be

quired to draw within, with her eyes
closed, a picture, and write beueat

A. J. Wilson. Mr. Simmon was take
completely bv surprise when tho
guests arrived to remind III in that th

birthday, and he was presented with
several beautiful gifts. The evenltii
was pleasantly spent In games fo
lowed by a luncheon. The house was
prettily decorated for the occasion
with autumn leaves and roses.
Tho British Government has now
built a great battleship, with the re
markable speed of twenty-seven knots
an hour, an accomplishment which
practically puts all the dreadnaughts
of the other great powers out of It
and relegates them to the Junk heap.
It means the creation of a new class
of battleships, speedier than the fast
est cruisers. It means that the Im
mense sums spent on modern navies
is useless and that there will have to
be another and greater expenditure.

The merchant knows this.
This editorial is to urge all those
people who believe In progressiveness,
in enterprise, to be consistent to
patronize the progressive and enter

store's advertising. You can buy ad
vertised things and know that you
are helping to make enterprise worth
while and know, too, that you are
saving money for yourself. You can

of dancing parties during the Winter.
The first of these will take place Frl

a Hallowee'n affair. Parsons' orches

for the occasion, and society will be

We desire to call the attention of
oursjreaders to the letter published in
this issue, written by the U. S. In
spector of the Interior Department,
Thomas B. Neuhausen, who had
charge of the land fraud trials in this
state, to Hon. Geo. C. Brownell of
this city, In which Mr. Neuhausen
Indicated Mr. Brownell in the strong
est way from any connection, directly
or indirectly, with any participation
in any of the Oregon land frauds. No
one, who knew Mr. Brownell, believed
that he cared enough about money to
ever involve himself In any corrupt
or illegal transaction to obtain It, but
that Mr. Brownell was undoubtedly
indicted largely through the influence
of political enemies in the city of
Portland, and elsewhere, who desired
to ruin him as a public man because
of his failure to support certain men
In Multnomah County, for U. S. Sen
ator. There Is something, however, re
markably wrong, with our system of
administration of our courts of Jus
tice, when a man can be indicted and
an Indictment held over him for three
years, one month and sixteen days,
without a chance of a trial. This
would never have been tolerated In
this country during the administra
tion of Abraham Lincoln, Grorer
Cleveland or Andrew Jackson. Our
fathers were so jealous oi the rights
of the American citizens that wnen
they adopted the constitution of the
United State?, they inserted a provi
sion in substance, declaring that any
man Indicted should be presumed In
nocent until he should be proven guil
ty, and yet these officers of the gov
ernment, in face of thfs constituional
provision, permitted this Indictment
to hang over our townsman for over
three years. Thin certainly was an
outrage upon the rights, not only of
Mr. Brownell, but of every citizen of
this state.

This Is the day of International Con
cresses. The International Tubercn

tional Good Roads Congress is as
sembling in Paris, with representation
from more than twenty countries, in
cluding the United States.
The remarkable development and
popularity of the automobile is the
inspiration of this Congress. The
main problem is to devise a road that
will stand the wear of the fast re
volving wheels, for, padded as they
are, they are more trying to roads
than iron shod feet and tires of steel.
The problem Is of deepest interest to
America where millions of dollars
must be devoted to the improvement
of highways and where we are far be
hind even the smaller and poorer
countries of Europe in this respect
The Supreme Court of Washington
has declared valid the direct primary
law of that State. There is no State
ment No. 1 clause In the Washington
law, but there is a second choice pro
vision that has aroused considerable
antagonism and created some con
fusion. The direct primary has evi
dently come to stay in Washington,
and time will rob it of some objection

Charles E. Spence, of Carus, has
joined with W. B. Ayer, of Portland,
In submitting to the legislature a
minority report, recommending that
the number of normal schools be lim
Ited to two, or even one. They argue
that the money appropriated for nor
mals can be used to better advantage
by maintaining one or two really ex
cellent institutions. This Is a sound
view, and one that we might expect
from a man of Mr. Spence's judgment.
After reading President Roosevelt's
