Amity Standard. liCAL ESTAFli w CTpJllAT AN IMPROVED ROAD will increase vastly the prosluctive II nes of the area through which it run has now been satisfactorily " demonstrated by ttudiet omducted by the United Statet Department of Agriculture in Virginia. Condition in Spotslvania county were invest! Rated with particular care and the reult have proved turnrising. In 1909 the county voted $100,000 to improve 40 mile of road. Two year alter the completion of this work the railroad ttxik away in 12 month from Fred ericksburjr, the county eat, 71,000 ton of agricultural and forest products liauled over the highway to that town. Before the improvement of the road this total wxt only 49,000 ton annually; in other word the quantity of the county ' produce had risen more than 45 per cent. Still more interest- ing, however, i the increase shown in the quantity of the dairy product. In 1909 these amounted to 114,815 pound, in 1911 to 273,028 pounds, an increase of practically 140 per srnt tw0 )fars. In '"e "me i'me &'''P" ments of whst had increxsed 59 per cent, tobacco 31 per cent, and lumbei and other forest product 48 per cent. n addition to this increa.se in quantity the cost of hauling each ton of produce was materially reduced. In other words the farmer not only pro duce more but produce more cheaply, for the cost of transportation to market is of course an important factor in '.he cost of production. From this point of view it is estimated that the $100,000 spent in improving the roads in Spot sylvania county saved the farmers of that county $41,000 a year. In the past two years the traffic studies of the federal experts show that approximately an average of 65,000 tons of outgoing products were hauled over the improved roads in the county an average distance of 8 miles, or a total of 520,000 "ton-miles." Before the roads w ere improved it was esti mated that the average cost of hauling was 20 cents a "ton-mile ;' after the improvement this fell to 12 cents a "ton-mile," or a saving of 8 cents. A saving of 8 cents per mile on 520,000 "ton-miles" is $41,000 a year. The county's investment of $100,000 in other words returns a dividend of 40 per cent annually. Because this saving, in cases of this character, does not take the form of cash put directly into the farmer's pocket there is a widespread tendency to believe that it is fictitious profit, while as a matter of fact, it is just as real source of profit as the increase in the price of wheat. o CrraHERE IS TO BE at least a temporary and a partial release from th pTio of hard times on the country. The harvesting of a great wheat crop, the outlook for a record crop of corn, and the increasing pros pert of a great yield of cotton, give us the hope that we will have a taste o prosperity despite the best efforts of the Democrats. Crop reports have led the great railway system of the country to pre pare for the big yield w hich is expected. New equipment, and new rails are being ordered and all the track is being brought into condition for the bur den w hich will come with the big crop. This is the brighter side of a picture which for months has shown noth ing but dark ones. The official statistics for the fiscal year ending with last month show that nearly one-half of the balance of trade in the preceding year disappeared. Putting the case in another way, our export trade fell off $250,000,000 during the last eight months of that year. ITH THE OPEMNCi of ihe Oiegondry campaign in I'UVa nut county at Canhy Sunday, what promise to he one of the warmrst and t leanest fights waged here in tear was begun. With rn organization complete and cmnpict in etery trgard, the dn present a de termined fint In the effort of the liquor inletett who air organizing to conduct campaign along line new for ihnn. The general campaign in Clfekumat county it under the committee of twelve which represent the combined dry force of the county. Both men and women, representing eserv section and under the tkillrd guidance o George C Browne!!, are on the committee and they arc the leader in their respective line of endeavor. I'nder the general committee come the pte- cinct committee which will do the indisidua! work of the campaign. These committer win iv caretuuv pit tea oy me cruirman ot the cencral commit tee with the advice of the leader in the precinct in xvluMi they will work. Meeting will he held in every section which will be worked i p by the precinct committer. I lie campaign will Ie largrly personal in nature, the committee of twelve reiving to a great extent on a house to house cant a of the precinct committee. But the organization of the campaign a thoroughly ain! at completely a it hat been formed it not the only tign w hich would indicate the tueve of the Jry in Clackamas county. The enthusiasm, the willingness to undergo per sonal lost of time and money, the persistency, and the nevrr-say die tpirit of many of the dry worker cannot be equalled by the financial influence of the iquor interests. One prominent Oregon City woman laid Sunday that the would go out into the country district to register voter and work up the anti-liquor feeling there. She said that he would leave housekeeping w ith her daughter for several week and devote all her time in the rural district. Such devotion to a cause i more likely to bear fruit than any of the tactic at the disposal of the liquor interest. Hie greatest enemy of the dry worker i apathy. If the committee of twelve and the organization back of it can overcome the laz.inev of the oter. it i almost certain that the county will return a majority for the rohibitionist. The word of George C. Brownell at Canby Sunday that all the wets were organized and would turn out to vote" are only too true. o THERE WAS A TIME when it was necessary for legislation in favor of the working class and against capital. That necessity was met and its requirements accomplished. In doing this, however, the pendulum of legislative activity has swung back the opposite way so far that such legis lation is now a hindrance to the legitimate investment of capital in good en terprises. This action is just such as is always experienced. A wrong arises, the people are aroused and spurred on by their enthusiasm they go to ex tremes, thus causing another wrong to be perpetrated instead of correcting the evil. A few years ago the hue and cry that the American workman was down trodden and oppressed found a ready response in every heart, because such was the case: But times and conditions have changed until now the work man in most instances has the best of it. Many enterprises are being forced out of existence simply because legislation that might well be termed freak legislation has been enacted that has made it impossible for employers to meet The Man Who Drives The Plow Is ths most independent of all workers. He is his own manager. His acres are his king dom. But to be independent means that he mist take care of himself. It is his duty to himself and those depending on him to make his vslfare secure. There is only one sure way of doing this and that is by keeping a bank account. Whenever you make a sale from the products of your farm, come and de posit the proceeds with us. Then you can pay all your bills with checks and need never worry about the safety of your money or the danger of paying a bill twice through lack of a receipt. The Bank of Oregon City OLDHST BANK IN CLACKAMAS COUNTY I AM HILL, good roads expert of national if not international note, and president of the Pacific Highway association, wa severely criticised by the convention of the Tri-State Good Roads association in Med- ord Monday. The 100 delegates accused the veteran good road man ot attempting to boss the highw ay association and to change the route of the road from the Willamette valley to eastern Oregon. Because of the action of the voter of Clackamas and Marion countie in turning down the good road bond issue, Sam Hill believe that it i almost impossible for the present route of the Pacific highway to be made into a first class thoroughfare, and suggests that it be changed to go through the eastern part of the state. If such a suggestion as Mr. Hill has made w ere carried out, the Willam ette valley would receive its just dues. The delegates from the Willamette valley at the Medford convention must surely realize that it is the fault of their own community that the suggestion was made by Mr. Hill and prob ably due to their own lack of activity before May 15 that the issue was lost. It should not be the business of the convention to criticise Mr. Hill, but to work to regain some of the ground lost at (ccent bond elections. o Ural rslalM l(ll(.lt fllnl ltll I'uiiiiir Id-. .ir.l.r IkMiiinn IhurtiUy 10 at lul!ii.

TrXSSINCj IHL oLLK, which means when reduced to refined Eng- p- lish, to place the responsibility on the other fellow, has became one of " the latest artful diplomatic traits of the Wilson administration. The Colombian treaty, by which the United States would give the republic to the south $25,000,000, privileges in the Panama canal which are denied ships of his country, and which would extend the humblest apolwrics. to (hat country, is now blamed to the Taft administration. ' The facts of the case are that in the latter part of the Taft administra tion, the minister to Colombia did suggest that this country express regrets to Colombia for incidents resulting in the acquiring of the canal zone. Secre tary of State Knox, to whom the suggestion was put, very promptly rejected it. Still Secretary Bryan continues to repeat one-half of the incident in self- defense. Schuebel Defines Stand. OREGON CITY, Ore., July 27, 1914. f To the Editor of the Enterprise) Sometime ago I received an open let ter asking whether I favored state and national prohibition; also whether I would be in favor of the passage of a law to prohibit the importation ot In toxicating liquor into "dry" territory. I answer yes to all the questions though my position on prohibition is well known because I have twice cam paigned the county for that inane. 1 believe in majority rule. If any community votes to prohibit the sale ot Intoxicating liquors It should be un lawful to ship liquor into that terri tory. If elected to the legislaluro I shall with great pleasure Introduce and support a bill to prohibit the im portation of intoxicating liquors Into dry territory. Yours very truly, C.

He can either submit to the allegations, there by admitting their truth; he can en gage In an altercation with the person making them through the public press, or he can take up the matter through the courts, forcing the author of the charges to stand responsible for them. 1 deny every one or tne charges made by Mr. Roosevelt, and have In structed my attorneys to take action against him Immediately for libel."
