who was elected a member of the

the youngsters have got to
do
something
To show what we did to the Brit
ish. There never was anything safe ln
the way the forefathers attacked
them, and as for the saner attain
ments, the old fellows seemed to
have lacked them. They simply cast
fear to the bowwows and waded Into
the affray, and a boy does not think
himself worthy if he can't shoot him
self, anyway.
At any rate, Jeffries and Johnson
will growl like a couple of poodles
and observe Independence with beat
ing the hair off their-mutual noodles.
They'll alternate making the other
leviathan howl for his mother, and if
the country at random Is lucky they'll
manage to kill -one another.
It's only a plan to make money, de
serving the strictest of strictures, for
what they will have is a raee war,
dividing what's made on the pictures.
We've been pretty mad in this coun
try for dollars, and power, and places,
but this Is the. first time we've traf
ficked upon the abyss between races.
The fat occupant of the White House
Will He on his hack In the grass
Beneath the green Beverley maples
Observing the aeroplanes pass.
The chauffeurs will keep right on
chnuffing.
With seeing it's no one but Bill,
And they'll sigh just to think what
hud happened
Had they flow n over Sagamore Hill.
But not every man can be Caesar,
ns someone has stated, alas! and In
the due course of the matter some
body must He in the grass. It's hard
on a strenuous nation, afflicting us
all In a way, but we'll look on the
brighter side of It, and conclude It Is
good for the hay.
However, Time flies is a proverb,
And one day, his foot on his gong
And his engine back-pedaling, August
Will come aeroplaning along.

urday, July 9, to select delegates to
the county assembly, which will be
held at Oregon City on Saturday, July
1. There will be 20 delegates In the

based upon the vote for the Taft
electors In the 1908 election. Each
precinct will be given one delegate

or major fraction cast for the Repub
lican presidential ticket. The primar
ies will be held at 7 o'clock P. M. on

There is a mqvement on foot to
nullify the work of the Republican
County Central Committee In calling
a county assembly to elect 53 dele
gates to the state assembly, and some
of the anti-assembly people are said
to be at work In the country districts
In an attempt to create sentiment
against the county assembly with the
expectation that the delegates to the
county gathering will be hostile to
the whole assembly plan. If this
movement Is successful, which is
doubtful, then, with a majority in the
county assembly, that body will de
cline to send delegates to the b'.ate
assembly and will, after passing res
olutions condemning the assembly
plan, adjourn. With the belief that
such a
movement is being mished.iors have been busy during the past
the friends of the assembly will prob -
ably do considerable quiet active
work next week In support of the po -
sition taken by the county central
committee.
It has been learned that the senti
ment among the farmers Is greater
for the assembly plan tn Clackamas
County than was originally supposed.
In view of the fact that Clackamas
Is Uie'home of Mr. U'Ren and that
heavy majorities were returned for ard and Charles Cleveland. The last
the measure that he stands for. it named Is owner of the noted Cedar
was supposed that the sentiment Grove stock Tarm, but he has given
against the assembly movement I an option to the agents of the railway
would be overwhelming But experi-j company for all but a few acres of his
enced men ln political affairs say farm, and the company probably In
that there has been a change and the 'tends to build up a new town around
priueipal reason for the new aspect! the railway station which will be es-
of affairs Is simply that under the
direct primary plan of operation, the
nominations for county officers have
all gone to Oregon City, and the peo-
1 pie In the country are getting prac-
tlcally no representation in the court-
j house. This Is a condition that Is1 in
) disputable and one that is not at all
I satisfactory to the country districts.
I and while the farmers will decry any
attempt to destroy the. direct pri
mary law, they think it should be
amended ln some manner so as to
eliminate the objectionable features.
