The organization of a fruit and j produce union marks a step in the j industrial progress of Clackamas ! County. While the association Is yet ; In Its infancy, the filing of the incor- j noratlon nAnara tht w-.-u.L- xi-i 1 iv.iv t.inlr h follows hv f,,o. of a commercial union that has every opportunity to work wonders in agri- cultural and horticultural lines. j It is indeed gratifying to note Vat i many of the leading Clackamas Coun- ty fruit growers have allied them selves with this movement. They : have everything to gain. Vnlformity I in picking and packing and a definite system of marketing is necessary be- fore this countv can assume her right- ful place in Uje front ranltof fruit growing sections. We have made a rood start at the cnL.lu cu. -, .i u)nrnuuu AJ'f'v euvr, nunc iiic vui; Willamette Valley exhibit of annles was from Clackamas County. The Commercial Club may well be proud highway Improvements, of this fact. This week there are ap j pies from Clackamas on exhibit at Oregon la now surrounded on two the annual display of the State Hor- sides with the awful blight of woman tlcultural Society in Portland. They suffrage. It will catch us yet Wash should be seen by every man In this tngton Joins the list of civilized states county. The exhibit is an education on this question, but we will not al- in itself. It is a far cry, however, to Hood River and to Rogue River. In these districts there has been organization for years. The associations have strict rules and the growers are wise enough "to abide by them. First of all the Clackamas County growers must manifest a willingness to be governed, to become a spoke within a wheel of system. Without this re solve, the real purpose of organiza tion is entirely lost. COULD EUT WONT. The Florence West thinks that aj average legislature could do as well as the people have 'done with moral measures. It could, but it don't. In Oakland, Cat., a few weeks ago the City Council gave away a mag nificent water front worth many mil- Hons of dollars In spite of the well- known and emphatically expressed sentiments of the people. Here was an immoral measure passed in spite ! of every kind of protest short of hanging some of the members of this i ,,, , , . . boodling, mis-representative body. It is because the average legisla ture sells out the people, refuses to carry out the will of the people and starts and retains every kind of a graft it possibly can that the demand for the initiative came, and will con tinue. In the plden times the farm was a general loafing place in the winter. -The farmer loafed at the store or smith shop; the cows loafed in the j stable, as the milk pails proved; the! horses loafed and grew soft and fat j in their stalls, and the very hens j loafed on the roost waiting for spring ! . before beginning to lay eggs. A won- drful awakening has come! The modern farmer is on the Job every day of the winter; the cows are doing their best to provide plenty of fifty - cent butter, and the cheerful cackle , ,x . r of the hens on these bright Decern-; oer aays attests tne tact that they are Inspired by the twentieth century determination to make good at forty five cents a dozen. The entrance of Edward Sheahan Into the race for councilman In the second ward for the three-year term at the eleventh hour is hardly a piece of good politics. Mr. Sheahan had every chance to get Into the field early, but he steadily refused to be- Eliminate All possible Risks To pay by check does away with the actual handling of money. There is not the risk possible as when cash is carried on yoar person and paid to others. There is no possible chance of losing money or of being robbed. Errors are easily cor rected when checks enter into a business transaction. It would be much cheaper and more con venient to employ the check account if it cost the user one cent for each $25 transferred. Can YOU afford not to pay by check, when there is no cost whatever? The Bank of Oregon Gty Oregon City, Oregon come candidate. It was then that F. C. Hurk yielded to the persuasion of his friends and filed his petition, and at the Inst minute he faces unex peeled opposition. In view of these j facts, Mr. Hurk Is entitled to the election, and he ought to have If. He Is entitled to fair treatment at the hands of his opponent and the public ' generally. i The conviction of J. M. Poster upon a charge of selling liquor Illegally at Kstncada Is a victory for good gov ernment. It has been notorious for j some time that the locnl option law i was being violated at r.stacails and just as soon as the facts were In pos session of Sheriff RMtle. that official mndo a raid, with the result that a ; conviction was speedily secured.

Many a man who almost has a fit when his wife pays J5 for a bonnet, will think nothing of spending as much for a box of cigars with which to pollute the atmosphere. Mr. Cltyman is hereby informed in response to his inquiry, that wrinkles on a cow's horn are not caused by trouble or worry. The people of Oregon have spoken once more in favor of doing their own constitution tinkering. No conven tion need apply. The big express companies have long robbed the public and its em ployes. The latter have grown tired first. Colorado has almost as many women members of the legislature as Oregon has Democrats. i jrrr? Council Passes Ordinances.

Support of Free Library A high standard of citizenship is the most valuable asset, the most de sirable element of community life: and for the development of this citi zenship our public schools and other educational institutions are estab lished and maintained. The men and women, young and old. who toll In the home, store, office and factory, day by day, cau not avail themselves of the privileges of the school room, however, and yet in order to exercise their rights of self government lu the most intelligent manner, desire to Study for themselves those ques tions. Industrial, social and moral which they are called upon to decide. Many transients and citizens also de sire a place where they may spend lime in pleasurable aud profitable reading and where there may be found a larger collection of books and peri odicals to select from than the aver age Jtome can furnish. The public library, well equipped and properly conducted, furnishes means (a I for Intellectual growth, (b) a place for wholesome entertainment for both young and old, to a strong ally of the day schools, (d) and an Institu tion toward which every citizen can point wltn pride. Again, the estab lishment and maintenance of a public library means opportunities for every boy and girl, every man and woman In Oregon City, equal to the oppor tunities granted to those of other cities, having libraries throughout the state; It will be a splendid ad vertisement of the city, recognized by those who are seeking locations for permanent homes where there are first class educational advantages for themselves and their children; it will be a glowing tribute to Oregon City's enterprise and civic standards.

Immediately following its trl- umphant premiere In Paris, is regard ed by theatre-gorrs far and wide as the most celebrated play of the pres ent generation. Not since the days of "Article 47," and the Sardou play has there been brought forth a drama of such Irresistible emotional appeal as "Madamo X." and the scenes that attended Its season-long run In New York and Chicago recalled the days when Clara Morris so moved the hearts of her auditors and the divine Sarah Bernhardt swept the country in triumph. The story of the play Is that of a woman who leaves her hus band and young child after a quarrel. and whose secret Is discovered tweu ty years afterward by blackmailers THE BARRIER" AT THE BAKER.

"The Barrier" has been one of the best sellers on the shelves for a long time, and It's popularity seems to grow as the seasons go by rather than to. wane.
