BEAUTY AND COMMERCE
Much baa been ald about the
at ream which passes our doors. PoeU
have seen In It inspiration for beaut"
lful verse, Artlata have put on can
vas what their eye and Uilent showed
to them but for years, yea. genera
tiona and centuries thla great water j
way has been In existence, .winding
ita way to the ocean, eervlng no pur
pose other than what nature Itself
asked of It j
Not many yeara ago little overi
a generation, our townspeople aaw Ita
commercial value. Our city waa then
Tery email, atlU the great river. Will
amette, waa a tower of strength auf
Ocient to build up not alone the city !
we have today, but one of the great
est industries of the age, a procesa
for manufacture of paper from logs,
one of Oregon's greatest product,
atill the Industry called upon the for
esta for loga of no vavie Tor other
purposes, giving to the timber bual
nesa a new outlet for what had hith
erto been thought valueless timber.
Thla industry therefor had a great
part to play in the upbuilding of Ors
gon City, and Clackamas County and
through ita steady Increase in produc
tion; the timber business of the State
of Oregon. From a plant employing
50 to 75 men 20 years ago. over 1000
men of Oregon City and vicinity find
employment In the mills of the three
companies now doing buaineaa here
by virtue of the great everlasting pow
er at the Falls of the Willamette.
44,000 horse power are now harness
ed and with legislation equally fav
orable to employe and employer, there
is no real good reason why the mills
here should not add to their plants
from time to time each of which calls
for at least 100 additional hands.
We have 40,000 winter month horse
power still for this purpose. We
know what the industry has done
for us in the past We know what
Patrick Henry said In his speech.
"There is no way to judge of the fu
ture, bnt by the past" 'Why not get
together citizens of Oregon City of
Clackamas County and of the state of
Oregon and foster the Industry which
haa done so much for ua alL
Wood paper on this coast was first
manufactured at Oregon City. Ore
" gon City still produces the majority
of the paper consumed on the coast
Oregon City can cpntinue to have this
distinction if it will but aid itself. No
one who will not help himself can
expect to be helped. Still the old Will
amette, the beatulful Willamette of
verse and art, the Willamette which
haa made Oregon City famous and
known to the entire world, continues
on its way to the sea unmindful of
the good it has done and is doing for
humanity.
CLACKAMAS COUNTY ROADS
There are a number of Introductory
bumps in the road where you leave
the oiled roads of MultnomahCounty
and enter Clackamas on the East side
road, and while the road in Clackamas
county is fair, it is badly in need of
repair at many points..
At Harmony some work was done
some time ago but the road was left
in very bad condition, being almost
Impassable after a hard rain. What
has become of the movement to have
our main trunk roads oiled? An offer
of $50 was recently made by a Port
land auto enthusiast It would seem
that many times that amount would
willingly be subscribed If the County
Court feels the county cannot afford
this luxury, If we may term it such.
OREGONS NEW CONSTITUTION
When referring to the proposed
TJ'Ren measures at a meeting of the
Portland Ad Club Wednesday Mr. C.
K. Henry said in part:
"People are not going to come to
MONEY
it
but it won't say much for YOU unle$ it's YOUR
money. You'll be surprised to see how a few dollars
in a good bank like this will coax other dollars in
how soon you'll have a nice little sum laid away
without missing it how eloquently it will talk for you
when chance comes to put it at work digging up
dividends on a good investment It's SAFE here,
too. Yes, and as "ready" as cash in your pocket,
without offering the same temptation to spend it
Come in and talk it over. Come in TODAY.
The Bank of
THE OLDEST BANK IN
a state where things are unsettled by
the experimental laws propoaed by a
dreamer. We are trying to aettle
Oregon and to bring more people
hero."
Evidently the new plan is not be
ing received with the expected favor
claimed by its friends.
The Enterprise would like to see a
calm in law making after correcting
a few of our present existing evils
and see what effect it has on our
growth.
AUTOMOBILE LICENSES
It is reported that the license paid
by automobiles and motor vehicles
generally, even though it totals f 30.
(00 or more annually Is all eaten up
In office expense, general expense and
salaries In the office of the Secretary
of State,
It would seem a poor tax, and a fool
hardy one which is all worn out in
the effort made at collection.
The Grange stands for a tax of $1
per horsepower, the proceeds to be
placed in a general main trunk road
fund: it la an expensive luxury In any
event to own an auto car and why not
have good roads at any cost to ride
on.
MR. U'REN AND THE SWEDE
The Grange by a vote of 90 to 5
adopted a resolution scoring single
tax and slapping our U'Ren and this
after a forty minutes speech by TJ'Ren
himself. There la an old saying that
no preached ever saved a soul with
longer than a twenty minute sermon.
Can It be that Mr. U'Ren was like the
Sweedish bachelor, who after
asking a young woman to marry
him, sat a long time In silence, and
in answer to the young ladies' ques
tion, -Why don't you talk?" said, "I
bane already said too much."
A Democratic contemporary re
marks that Mr. Bryan "has none of
Theodore Roosevelt's knack of dis
covering unsuspected loopholes of es
cape from plain and outright declara
tions." Information on this point
will be more definite after the Balti
more ticket is hammered Into shape.
Iowa Democrats assert that Bryan,
if nominated, will poll from 500,000
to 1,000,000 more votes than any oth
er Democratic candidate can" get Bry
an proved his party superiority in all
his three battles, but how about nev

ABE RUFE TELLS 1Y
HE WENT TO PRISON
SAN FRANCISCO. May S8. 'I fin
ally agreed to meet him." With
these words in today's chapter of hla
autobiography In the San Francisco
Bulletin, Abraham Ruef slgnalUesthe
momentoua decision at ajie forking of
the roads which set him upon the
highway leading to a prison cell.
"Thus waa I first placed in touch
with PUll Crlmmlne." he aaya, "who
aflorwarda, with Martin Kelley. be
came political boss of the Republican
party in San Francisco."
Ruef had been Importuned to meet
Crlnunliia by "Od Hill" Hlggins. whom
he describes aa "the formidable bosa
of whom I had heard so much; he who
controlled conventions, named and
owned public officers .and who, ac
cording to general report, had cor
nipted everything with which he
came in contact"
He tells of having been visited by
Hlgglns a few daya after the conven
tion at which Ruef believed he had
broken the alate. Hlgglna quickly
disillusioned him:
" 'I waa in the convention the other
night and I admired your atand and
your courage, although your were
agalnat me. I auppose you think you
broke the alate, dont' you.?'
"I replied It looked like It
" 'Nonsense.' said he, 1 broke It my.
self. I did it as a personal tribute to
you. strange as It may seem. You
were making such a good fight that
I wanted you to win, and so I aent In
orders to change enough votes to let
you win out'
"I was taken aback. I hardly dared
believe him, although he appeared sin
cere. I afterward discovered that hla
statement was absolutely true. At
the same time Mr. Hlgglns added that
If I desired he would nominate me at
once to the Legislature or. If I pre
ferred, I could have an appointment
as Prosecuting Attorney.
"I thanked him but declined. Hold
him I could not place myself under
any obligations to him whatsoever.
"'We are not all so black as we
are painted,' he continued, 'and when
rou get a little older and have made
a name for yourself, as I foraee you
will and I am going to help you do
it nothwithatandlng you present ideas
you will be more lenient in your
judgments.
"On parting we shook hands and I
received a cordial Invitation to call
on him at any and all times."
Ruef describes Hlgglna as " a pros
perous-looking old gentleman, of rod'
dy complexion, gray hair and beard.
in gray clothes snd a gray stovepipe
hat" He did not aee htm again for
two yeara and then the aged politician
sent for blm, saying he was ill. He
visited him and it was then that he
consented to meet Crimmlns, "a
young fellow south of Market street
who waa very adroit and loyal, and
who could handle the rough elementa.
but who needed a young man of edu
cation to co-operate with him."

j We now want to reorganize the army along safo and conservative

THE CONFEDFRATE FLAG,
Hew tha Dssign Was Finally Adopted
by tha South,
It. T. n.-anreg.ird or New Orleans
gives the following account of Ilia de
sign of the Confederate Bug:
"During tbo battle of Manassas lien
eral Beauregard luid observed the dull
culty or dlHtluguiNtiiiig our owu from
the eueuiy'a colore and In order to pre
vent all errors In the future had de
termined to adopt In his army a battle
dug distinct lu color mid dcslgu lie
at flint aouglit to procure a chance in
the Confederate Hug Itself, and Colonel
W. V. Milt's, then chairman of tn
house military committee, bad cnum-d.
at hla request. rcxrt to he presouted
to that effect, but with no result, in
I-a confereuce betweeu the then three
senior officers at Fairfax Court House
In 8o;teuiler out of four deslgna tor
a baltleflag one presented by General
Beauregard waa adopted. It waa a red
field with a diagonal blue cress, the
latter edged with while and bcarlni,
white atars. To rvuder It more lett
able It waa made iuure Instead ot
obloug by order of General Johnston.
"Thla beautiful design, by H strange
coincidence, bad leen previously de
vlaed- by Colonel SI ilea ana recom
mended for the Confederate Mug to con
gmw. then lu sensloti ut Montgomery
in March. IStll. It bad also been pro
poaed by Mr. Edward C. UnncN-k. at
the request of Colonel Jauieit H. Wal
ton, at New Orlotuw lu the imnitb of
AprlL It had been offered by Colonel
Mllea to General lieauregunl lu siilistl
tutlon for one nearly similar In em
blem and pattern, but different In the
distribution of colors, suggested to blm
by General Beauregard when the latter
waa aeeking to procure a change lu the
Confederate flag. And It waa now pro
posed anew to the general by Colonel
Walton, who bad Mr. Hancock's de
sign. '
"Thus It will be seen that the design
of the Confederate battleflag was con
ceived and drawn long before a Cnion
soldier had tried his skill In wster
colors on an original which was not
and could never have reached the
hands of toe general's Ismented daugh
ter. She was a littie girl who waa In
Louisiana during the whole of our on
fortunate war and waa aeen by her
father only at Ita close."
QarrieK and tna oianop.
In the "Realities of Irish Life." by
W. 8. French. Is this anecdote: "1 have
heard a stury that upon one occasion
the bishop of London asked the cele
brated actor. Garrick. If he could ex
plain bow It waa that he and bis cler.
gy failed to arrest the attention of
their audiences, although tbey preach
ed every Sunday of the realttlea of the
world to come, white he iGarrtck) filled
crowded houses with the moat rapt at

well that all be waa aaylng was fiction.
The reason la very plain, my lord,'
replied Garrick. 'You deal with facts

tion as if It were facta.' "

proprietors had agreed to do and ask
