CANBY AND
Canby Bus Line Has
New Headquarters
CANBY, Feb. 23. M. J. Lee has
rented the .building ear- Main street
owned by Wilson Evans, where he has
made many changes and is now lising
thisi for a waiting room for convenience
of pasengers on the Canby-Oregon
City bus. This has, been found to be
a great convenience to those patron
izing the stage line, as heretofore
passengers were compelled to take
shelter in the postoffic or remain out
In the rain.
Mr. Lee is deserving of much credit
in establishing, the bus line between
this city and Oregon City, and his
passengers receive every attention
for their comfort while making the
trips. .
By establishing this bus line it has
enabled men of 'this city to make
their daily trips to and from their
employment at the paper and woolen
mills. A number of the young women
of this city are also taking advantage
of the bus line, when securing posi
tions with the Oregon City- woolen
mills.
Mr. Lee will establish the Wbod-turn-Oregon
City bus in the near fu
ture, having an extra car now which
lie intends placing on, making three
cars now in his possesion.

SESSION ENDS
AND DIVISION
BILLS ARE DEAD
SALEM, Or., Feb. 23. (Special to
the enterprise). While the Thirty
first Legislative Assembly was pass
ing into history amidst a whirl ol
horse play and semi-serious deliber
ation this afternoon, rumor has it
that the Clackamaa county division
bill did not get out of the senate com
mittee on counties.
In thia ignoble wise did the pro
posed secession of northern Clacka
mas county die.

being forced to act aa temporary
speaker, Senator Mbser took oc
casion of the situation to have some
fun with hia colleague from Mult

set forth to dress down Mosier after
the fashion in which Joseph and
Moser clashed a few days ago.
Moser turned the fire onto Banks
by demanding that the report on the
Clackamas county secession bill be
produced, but investigation brought
forth the information that Senator
Hume, chairman of the committee,
was at that moment speeding toward
Portland carrying the bill in his
pocket.
The legislature adjourned about
four o'clock and the bill is dead.

JUSTICE AT
GRESHAM GETS
NO BUSINESS
Justice Borwn has but one case on
his docket, a suit by one of the mer
chants against a customer, and if it
was not for real estate business thw
representative of the judiciary of the
state in Gresham would suffer for the
necessities of life. However, as the
days grow longer and more and more
people come to his door seeking hom
es and garden plots and farms ana
timber lands, the face of the justice
grows shorter and ocdasionaliy
breaks out in smiles. The old world
looks young again, and he concludes
to hang on to the seat of justice a
while longer.

Who Has Easy Money?
- . .-
The National Nonpartisan League, that great
'aggregation of Socialists headed by A.-'C. Townley, is
asking for donations of $100 to $500 to finance an
initial campaign of the League in Oregon. If $10,000
to $15,000 is subscribed the Leaguers will begin work
at once. It is explained that the money will be used to
purchase automobiles and to cover the salary and ex
pense of getting organizers into the state. In the words
of D. C. Dorman, manager of the national organization
department: ;
"That the League is coming into your state is a
certainty, but the time is largely determined by con
ditions to be met, especially with reference to funds"
which can come from no other source than the farmers
and workers themselves."
This is an opportunity for patriots. Such lovers of
the League as Charles E. Spence and R. E. Cherrick
ought not to hesitate' in. the face of this appeal, but should
dig down and subscribe liberally to bring to Oregon the
crowd of manipulators who have turned the state of
North Dakota upside down and made it the financial
joke of the nation.
Meanwhile the farmers of Oregon are organizing the
farm bureau movement, with every prospect of success.
If the bureau becomes well established and is rightly
managed, there will be as much of a welcome for the
League as for North Dakota weather. We do not
anticipate a ready response to the call for money to buy
automobiles for men whose chief object will be to ex
tract membership fees from the pockets of the farmer.

Few persons in this country know what bolshevism

When a man does not want to do a thing which his
heart prompts, he flatters himself that he is a hard-headed

Human nature is still very much the same, except

It is sometimes amusing to observe the class of per

liberties of the people.
Any married man knows that another married

IDENTITY OF MAN
FOUND IN WOODS
STILL MYSTERY
PORTLAND. Feb. 23. Demitv
sheriffs and city detectives yeSjter
day bent every effort toward estab
lishing the identity of the body found
on the Hoffman ranch, near the Barn
es road, with three fatal bullet
wounds in the head, throusrh two
laundry marks found on handker
chiefs which were in the pockets of
cne dead man.
On one handkerchief th ifLnnrli-o ,
mark "R 1" appeared and on the oth
er was the mark "303.". A careful
check of marks used by all Portland
laundries -was made during the -day
and deputy sheriffs late in the after
noon were tracing down clews, which
were given by the latter mark.
That the man was, murdered there
is no doubt at all in the minda nf th
officials conducting the investigation.
They are likewise confident that a
clearance of the mystery will reveal
the presence of a woman. There
were several points brought ut In
the investigation .which gave strong

these points was the finding of a pair
of woman's black gloves in the pock

chief with a floral border also was
found. It bore no laundry mark, nor
was there any mark on the gloves
which might serve in establishing
their identification.
Police Inspector Swennes, who
worked with deputy sheriffs on the
investigation, clings to the belief that
the man was shot and killed by an
enraged husband who caught the man
with his wife. He does not believe
robbery was the motive for the kill
