ANNEXATION AND THE RESULT, It is cheering news, indeed, that comes to The Enterprise from Mult nomah County in relation to the pro posal of B. Lee Paget, et al., to annex the Northern portion of Clackamas County to Multnomah. This intelli gence carries with it the assurance that B. S. Josselyn. president of the Portland Railway Light & Power Com pany; the members of the Waverly Club and hosts of prominent cltiiens are opposed to the annexation scheme. The antagonism of these gentlemen will go far toward the influencing the people of the State at large to vote against this proposition. The figures compiled by County As sessor Jack and presented at the Oak Grove meeting by County Judge Dim- ick tend to disprove the assertion that has been freely made to the effect that the districts embraced in the North em part of Clackamas County had not been receiving their Just proportion of the road money. As a matter of fact in nearly every district amounts in excess of the apportionment have been expended during the last two years, and the county clerk's office records show it. Just what the residents of Northern Clackamas who favor annexation ex pect to gain by joining Multnomah Is puzzling. Some of them say the roads will be bet'.er and the taxes will be lower, but lei no one be fooled by the thought that low taxes and better highways go band in hand. The chief concern of Oregon City In this matter Is her geographical situ ation in the event that the plan of annexation is successful. This city would be left in the extreme corner of the county and we would naturally expect a clamor from Canby, Barlow, or Molalla for the removal of the coun ty seat to a more centrally located point. This is the situation that would have to be faced and it is already be ing discussed. After all it is extremely improbable that Multnomah County will consent to such an addition to her territory and Mr. Paget will have his hands full in persuading .the people of Oregon to make Multnomah County dry In such a roundabout manner. nation, extravagant In living as in other things. Many families never live within their Incomes, not because they consume too much at their meals, but because they waste so much food which, if properly utilized, would make many a plentiful meal. FInan dally this did not so much matter when prices of meat, eggs and other foods were low. but It matters a good deal now that prices are up. It Is a trite but true saying that a French family can live comfortably on what an American family throws away. Of course there are many families which are models of wise economy, but In general the criticism applies with considerable force. It Is becoming Increasingly evident that the country press, far more than the city press, creates and develops public opinion on almost any given subject. To a much larger extent than most people give it credit for the country newspaper in Its views on public questions is governing by principle and not by selfish Interest. In this matter the city newspaper, with comparatively few exceptions. Is at a disadvantage. Its utterances and policy are too often controlled by men whose sole aim Is wealth. and who for the attainment of that end are ever ready to throw principle to the winds. "When, therefore, the country newspaper expresses Itself on any moral or political subject, that expression is almost invariably un fettered and sincere, which fact gives it a value that is wanting in the ut terances of a subsidized .or controlled press. If those large employers of lalor who gain a reputation for generosity by giving a comparatively small amount of their Immense prollts to charity would only put more money In the pay envelopes of their em ployes, how much better it would be all round. A man once prayed that he might be kept poor If the possession of wealth would work harm to others. A wiser prayer would have been "to ask for the ability to mivke wealth In right ways, and wisdom to use It aright when gained. The man Ingralued with selfishness and who Invariably acts from selnsh motives finds It well ulgh Impossible to believe that anyone else can act to wards his fellows In an unselfish spirit. If but a fraction of the energy we waste In gushy sentiment were de voted to the actual doing of some thing worth while what an uplift the world would get. WHERE IT MAY BE A BENEFIT. The high cost of living which is creating such a furore at present may ultimately prove a benefit In one or two directions, even if the soaring prices do press unusually hard Just now on people of limited incomes. It is intimated that many people who left the country for the city and who have been living a sort of shabby-genteel life on a small Balary ever since, are now going back to the country life which they ought never to have left. If they do then there is good hope that most of them may become producers and do a good thing for themselves and the country. A Becond benefit will result If the higher cost of living will but teach people to be more economical. The abundance of our natural resources and of prosperity hive made us, as a It takes all kinds of people to make the world, and apparently it takes all kinds of penalties to make some of them obey the law. In Indianapolis saloon keepers who are found guilty of violating the Sunday law are sen tenced to attend church for a given number of Sundays. The experiment is being watched with considerable Interest and speculation is keen as to what the outcome will be. If it proves effective In leading the guilty to obey the law, or. better still, to give up their business, the experi ment will be approvingly hailed by social and moral reformers. I, ' ,!

Mail order houses are flooding the country with their literature. Just in so far as those houses are patronized so Is the trade of local merchants in jured, and that involves Injury to the town in which they do business Be sides the local patriotism, which should always be a strong factor with ever citizen, it is to one's personal Interest to buy of home merchants. Taking everything into consideration one can almost Invariably buy more cheaply and to better advantage of them than of the catalog houses who grant no acommodations to the purchaser. It is devoutly to be hoped that the suits of the national government against the meat packers and other corporations may meet with greater success than similar suits have had in the past. With the remembrance of the outcome of the proceedings against the Standard Oil and other monopolies still fresh In the public mind it does not do to be over san guine. Nevertheless progress Is be ing made and Is going to made until justice wins and the square deal In big business becomes an accomplish ed fact. . w i A community Is an aggregation of homes and consequently is the com mon home of Its residents, however large or small In number they may be. Therefore Jusl as every member of a domestic home takes, or should take, a personal Interest and prlile In that home, loves It and contributes In The attractiveness of the high school rooms has been greatly increas ed by the addition to their barren walls of several pictures represent ing the various schools of art. Among them are: Italian Art Slstlne Madonna. Raph ael; Aurora, Guldo Renl. French Art The Angelus. Millet; The Close of Day. Millet; The Horse Fair, Rosa Bonheur. Dutch Art The .Mill, Ruvsdael. British Art Sir Galahad, Watts; Infant Samuel. Reynolds. I'nclasslfled The Cecilia. Long fellow. Whlttler. Coliseum, Roman Forum. The educational value of such mas terpieces is very great. They not only beautify, but as they are studied In connection with historical, lang uage and literary Illustrations a taste for the truly beautiful and genuine not only in the art of the gallery and museum, but In the artistic values of the home is developed in the students. This means .better, but not more ex pensive tastes In the homes of the future. It ougt-t to moan that the cheap, trasy, and oftlmes harmful dec- orations will not he tolerated when such beautiful masterpieces that mean so match of cheer, comfort and pride may be had within the reach of all. These pictures were purchased with the money made from the dinners giv en by the high school girls and teach ers at the institute held at the Fast ham school In November. A room has been fitted up at the Barclay gymnasium to relieve the third grades at the two school where about fifty children Including those promoted from the second grades would attend. The plan Is to reduce the number to each teacher of these grades and secure better work. Mrs. H. L Hull, an experienced teacher from Gladstone, and recently elected supernumerary, Is filling this position. A slight Jump In the price of mill feeds Is one of the most noticeable changes In tho oveson City market this week. Count r shorts which heretofore have been commanding $5 per ton. have been advanced to $;I7. while the price of city shorts has changed from $::i to $:I5 per ton. Alfalfa meal has gone up $1 In price this week. Potato prices have receded a little, and the best fancy potatoes that wore on the market last week for "0 and 75 cents a bushel are now worth lit and 70 ceuts. After a week of record breuklng re ceipt in tho cattle market, ft large share of which very common stuff, the market has apparently reach ed Its lowest level and the feeling seems to be thtit within a week or ten days there will btf a decided Improve mcnt again. Steers which were good enough to bring 13.35 ton day ago are now be ing sold from $4.75 to $l.to with a few- extra choice loads ping as high as 5 cents. Off-grade steers have sold down to 4 .cents and below with a great many, steers (or which the of fers made were not more than equal to the paying price at the Interior pnluth. Jobbing ahlpHrs and shl oers In general have been pretty se verely hit by this l-t slump and they will uot soon forget tho meat boycott by those who an1 behind It. We would advise all shipper to keep In close touch with ilielr commission men and be rvady to take advantage of the rise in the market which Is bound to take place within a short time. In tho meantime, It will mate rially help If all off grade stuff can be kept at homo un.l nothing but prim L stuff brought on tho market. There seems to lie n oeuer iceiing in the hog market with values some where around $S 75 to $9.00. accord ing to quality. Sheep are scarce and quality of ar rivals has been very common.
