CLACKAMAS DOES HER PART.
Old Clackamas surprised the natives
lastTuesday by rolling up a plurality
of more; than 900 for Taft and Sher
man. The Republicans voted their
ticket, except in Oregon City, where
hundreds of laboring men evidently
listened to the loud noise, as imper
sonated by Sam Gompers. and cast
their ballots for The Peerless. The
Democrats certainly had us all bluffed
in Oregon, with their estimates of less
than 15.000 for Taft, who will carry
the state by probably 25.000.
The farming vote did the business.
There has never been a time in the
history of this Republic when the fai
mer has been in such a prosperous
condition as now. The Increased cost
of living does not affect him to the
extent that it readies the man ho
lives In the city. Yet the farmer
reaps all the benefit from the good
prices for the products of the soil
and it is small wonder, indeed, that
he is satisfied, and has no desire for
a change.
Once in a while we fall from grace
and elect a Democratic county official
who has a
and whose popul
have even been known to give a ma
jority to a Democratic candidate for
Governor, and last June we made an
everlasting spectacle of ourselves by
nominating a Republican Statement
No. 1 candidate for United States sen
atro and then slaughtering him at the
polls for a Democrat This was Re
publicanism with a vengeance.
But on national affairs it is all
different The country is prosperous.
The people are satisfied. They are
afraid of Bryan and his untried theo
ries. They have nothing to fear from
the personal choice of Theodore
Roosevelt.
Now the' Democrats are trembling
In the fear that the prodigious Re
publican vote in Oregon will be the
signal for the abandonment of the
Statement No. 1 pledge, but they real
ly have nothing to worry about. These
Statement Oners will find It hard to
backslide. They took the pill with
their eyes wide open, with the warn
ings of the Republican press In their
ears, and they will find it hard, very
hard, to dash the cup away.
THE INCREASE IN POPULATION.
In an address delivered at the con
ference of governors in Washington
the prediction was made that the
United States will In 1950 have a pop
ulation of more than 200.000.000. This
was based on an annual increase of
about 14 per cent, plus the average
annual immigration of 750,000.
There is no question as to the di
minishing rate of natural increase, but
if the present population is 85.000.000
there will certainly be added to It
more than 45.000.000 In the next forty
two years, unless natural growth Is
stopped altogether, and that is not
probable. There will be an increase
in that time of quite 20,000.000 from
immigration, and It Is not unreason
able to assume that there will be not
less than 40,000,000 from natural
growth.
The population of the United States
will reach 150.000,000 by the middle
of the present century, and it Is not
likely to halt there.

10.000 HOMICIDES A YEAR.
The homicides of this country num
ber over ten thousand a year. They
are much more numerous than In
other countries of comparative popu
lation. Our laws and judges and jur
ors and lawyers are to blame for this
condition of things. Nearly three
months ago, a captain In the United
States army murdered Mr. Annis as
he came out defenseless from a bath
in the waters of New York Bay.
It was two months before the Grand
Jury brought an Indictment in the
case and it is probable that a year
may elapse before the case is tried
and the murderer probably acquitted.
It -is very different from this In the
country from which we derive our
laws and institutions. In England
there Is no unwritten law. Emotional
Insanity is unknown. If an English
man's family Is Invaded by a seducer,
he goes to law over It and society
approves him and the Invader of his
home is ostracized, as well as mulct

become a civilized country in time,

GOOD ROADS.
Winders the world has ever seen.
From the earliest times they saw the
necessity of having easy and safe
means of communication between all
the cities ot Italy and later, as they
acquired provinces in France, Ger

greater need of good roads over which

foodstuffs to garrisons and
