OUR "RIVAL" TO BE
It -has remainded for a split-county
booster to tell us through the columns
of the Oregonian that we have a rival,
or that we fear rivalry. The time
is the future, the place is Estacada
and the girl is the creation of a new
county.
County division was pretty well set
tled two years ago, by the people
of Oregon by an overwhelming vote,
yet there are communities that have
aspirations, and seek to convince their
people that a separate county gov
ernment can be maintained without
an increase in taxation, , already too
high. The article referred to has its
humor and follows:
'The movement for the division of
Clackamas County and the formation
of a new county out of the eastern
part, with Estacada as the county seat,
has been renewed. A meeting was
held at Estacada Thursday night
when a number of addresses were
made favorable to .the new county
movement. Other meetings will be
held at central points and if sentiment
is favorable in Eastern Clackamas
County, petitions will be prepared fdr
circulation and a vote asked for at
the general election. This is the sec
ond movement for county division, but
the movement a few years ago was de
feated by the inflluence of the Oregon
City people, who do not want Esta
cada to become a rival. It is urged
that Eastern Clackamas County is rap
idly filling up and that it is a long dis
tance to Oregon City to transact legal
business, the only railway being by
way of Portland.
A daughter of the late King Ed
ward VII, is queen of Norway. In
any case, the British will have some
share in the achievement at the South
Pole. -
Unforeseen.
"I notice that you courteously refrain
from mentioning the name of your po
litical rival in any of your speeches."
"I can't say my practice in that re
spect is so much a matter of courtesy
as of prudence. I once started in to
denounce a rival, but as soon as . I
mentioned his name the audience burst
into deafening and continuous ap
plause." Washington Star.

PERA HOUS
A
and reneweals are as valuable as new
.subscriptions. As every entrnat will
agree the matter of obtaining sub
scriptions to a paper the people want
is a comparatively simple matter and
everybody wants to help a worker.
The same thing might apply to Can
by. This thriving city, the home of
Clackamas County's fairs, should at
this time center on a popular -young
person and all support that
candidate, who ever it may be. Miss
Hampton, Miss Wang, or Miss Lee,
would be supported by the entire
town, or there are a dozen young
men who .would prove record breakers
should they decide to enter and win
the big Ford.
. The big contest is open to any res
ident - of the county. Every entrant
will have a square deal and all will
be treated alike. Every, subscription
is worth votes, and votes are what
count. But now is the time to enter.
It is not too late if you act promptly.
The highest candidate has 50,000
and after three weeks work. A week
ago Saturday Kent Wilson polled 20,
000 votes in one day's work, which
means that if you are willing to hus
tle, three days efforts will place you
well up in the list. Make up your
mind right now that you want the big
auto, get in the race today, keep at
it early and late and you will win.
