The board, however, w'dotepped tle pool by pnni; direct to a Port land rank and selling the entire ismic at a premium. And now for a third time the city has been brought fair to face with the activitie of this croup in marketing a $275,000 iwue which were authorized at an election la-t December. The uual plan of weakening the teller of the bond was carried out by a bidder who found an allejed flaw in the issue, and thi week ha een the prevribej dickering to frighten the city into accepting a lower price. s These tricks cenamly do not reflect credit on the trade. On the other hand the)- cau- any person who haJ been brought into touch with th? pool to view any bond buyer with the ame cheerful spirit he would a second story man or pickpocket. Their methods may be legal, and their mode of operations entirely within the ethics of their profession, but the- schemes are rapidly leading all to be a cautious in their dealings with bond buyers as they would be w ith a confidence man or card shark. The bond buyers do not buy according to the worth of an tue. Their lauie of value is based on the strength of the backbone of the man or board making the sale. Beat and frighten the seller down to the Iowet powiblf price and then buy, that is their motto. - T rrHE TWENTIETH CENTURY GRANGE at Barlow is one of I the most progressive in the entire county and the methods employed by that organization w ill serve as a worthy model for other granges throughout the Willamette valley, or, in fact, the whole state. The grange, in the first place, recognizes that many improvements can be made in the farms of the district which it serves, an admission, although painful in itself, is necesasary before real improvements can be made. The officers of the Twentieth Century grange, or instance, realize that the farmers' calling demands more efficiency than any other, yet the tiller of the soil has the lexst of that virtue. W. F. White, who is in close touch with the Barlow grange, even declares that this lack of efficiency is the one cause of "hard times" on a majority of Oregon farms. Acting on this theory that to increase the prosperity of the Oregon fanner, that individual must be educated, the grange at Barlow is now con ducting a series of lectures which are given the second Saturday of even month at die grange hall. Specialists have been secured to talk on subjects r f vital interest to the farmer, and the entire neighborhood is urged to turn out to benefit thereby. And then the grange, in order to make the series as practical as possible, has arranged the series of lectures so that the farmer can go home and apply the knowledge he has secured. Experts talk on spraying in the spraying season, on plowing in the plowing season and so on through the 12 months of the year. Such is the thoroughness of the plan worked out by the pro gressive Barlow grangers. Take these frank statements by Mr. White as a sample of the sound reasoning back of this movement, "it is obvious to every observing person, whether directly or indirectly interested in the matter, that the fruit trees and orchards in this neighborhood are in a most dcporable condition. Our fruit trees, instead of being an ornament to our homes, and a source of pleas ure and profit to the homes, are a disgrace and an eyesore, and with few exceptions, are yielding a lot of diseased and inferior fruit, that is neither marketable nor fit for home consumption. "Yet knowing all this, we allow the trees to take up valuable ground, and make no intelligent effort to either eradicate or ameliorate this condi tion. "It is useless to leok to the .law for redress. The disease spot, the codling moth and the aphis regard no law but the law of their being. "No matter how earnestly and determinedly the few may work to con trol these pests, so lonrr as there exists a diseased, infested and neglected orchard or tree in the neighborhood, their labor will be in vain, there must be an earnest determined cooperation on the part of every one interested before full benefits may be expected. We must all be "Village Hamptons' in this work." It is such work as this that makes the grange a practical and valuable asset to a community. The fields open to the activity of the grangers are numerous and the possibilities contained in united and progressive effort H. DISTRICT ATTORN FY'S OFFICE ha.

HE INDEPENDENCE OF OREGON CITY from the proi'es- ional bond buyer, whose vile purpise in life is to beat down the prict of first class bond issues, has been established, thanks to the! aid given the city by the three local bank. The success of the city in Kit ing the issue direct, avoiding commissions and bid far Mow par, in reality mean more than a saving of several thousand dollars. It will serve as a lesson to the northwestern pool of bond buyers and all varieties of confi dence men and second story workers, whether authorized by law or not, that Oregon City is not an easy mark for their games. Good municipal bonds are in demand in the financial market. They offer a safe investment at a fair rate of interest. Oregon City s credit I established, in spite of the clownish antics of the bond buyers, a this town has the solid backing of industry and a big pay roll that i greater than the pay roll possessed by any other town the sire of this in the state. Yet. in spite of these facts, the professional bond buyers were not willing to make a definite offer for the issue at par, and not one of the firms through the Pacific northwest territory appeared to be anxious to take the bonds. But. now, this pool has been left out in the cold because of its own activity. It has been taught that Oregon City will not stand for a huld-up game such as was attempted, that the best way to do business here is by fair dealing and an honest offer for business at an honest price. court lKnora tho wiahoa of thn tax puer.

T HE ENTERPRISE read with mingled disgust and anger an article appearing in the Portland Telegram recently in which the honesty of Sheriff Wilson was attacked by implying that he is in league w ith the Milwaukie resorts. The story, which was given a prominent place on the front page, was so plainly an effort to discredit the local officer by means of pure fiction that The Enterprise at first opined that it best to ignore the article. Sheriff Wilson is not working with the Milwaukie resorts. He is an honest man and a fair sheriff, and all who come in direct contact with his office know it. Such an article as appeared in the Telegram can have but one purpose, and that is to attempt to discredit him in the eyes of the voters at the primaries in May. A more complete statement of the case will appear in The Enterprise as soon as an investigation of the matter now under way is completed. MOVIE COMBINE FORMED NEW YORK. Mareh IS.

GRIEVANCE OF TAXPAYERS OREGON CITY, Ore., March 27. (Editor of The Enterprise.) When will taxpayers ever havo any redress or voice In having the money expended on our roads in a Judicial or economical manner under our pre' ent system when the wishes of 80 to 90 per cent of the taxpayers petition to the county court to have an effi cient road boss appointed and the court does not recognize the wishes of said petitioners, nor Is willing to take into consideration any complaints on said lines or make an Investigation. This la tho condition the taxpayers of road district No. 15 with L. Mat- loon as road boss Is obliged to put np with because with his brother as one of the court he defies the whole district to have any one eUe appoint ed. When time and money is spent to do necessary repairs, why should It not be properly done, In place of leav. Ing II us imd or worso than before, This Is the case with L. Mattoon's supervision. One Instance for an 11 lustration, on a certain place going up the hill south of town on tho South End road where a culvert Is very much needed, (the old one being broken down), when repairing the road he merely placed a few rocks on each end, leaving the center broken down, so now since the road has been graded with crushed rock the water enters at the end and cannot pass through and forces Itself through In the cen ter of the road when In the first place, with a little cxtru work, a good culvert could have been put In. This Is one instance of work Im properly done and others could be mentioned. The taxpayers also have a grlev- anee In that last summer he put his 15-year-old boy on the road to work, drawing a man's pay, when residents rf the district in passing where they worked saw said son of his lying In the shade, not only once but many times by different persons. L. Mattnon ulxo hauled broken rock enough to cover his driveway from the public road to his barn. Now the taxpayers should bo sufficiently Inter ested to Investigate whether the haul ing of said rock and the getting of It out was paid by the public or not. Last fall we had Mr. Fisher hand ling the roller and in addition helped to spread the rock, now, of course, our county commissioner has his son handling the roller and an extra man Is supplied to spread rock, such work would be beneath the dignity of a commissioner's son, but the taxpayers must pay for an additional man. Our road boss, Mattoon, now pro- motes his son to engineer for the crusher when he did not know the difference between a steam gauge and the smokestack, but spent a week or more wiping off the grease at the county's expense and la now drawing engineer's pay and haa to be supplied with assistance and delays are fre quent on account of a proper engi neer and the taxpayers must pay for the loss of time. But there is no use of complaining when our county MAPl.E IiANE. Ore., March 28 ( Editor of The Enterprise.)
