Knockers are continually working
against the company missionaries of
evil have been operating along the
line of the survey and some of them
are our own fellow citizens, a fact
hardly conceivable, but still a fact.
What their motive can be we of
course dq not know, but in these days
of corrupt practice and false
teachings, we can only surmise, as
also can the reader.
With such men as the "road has at
its head, business and professional
men all above reproach, the Enterprise
feels it unnecessary, to print and deny
the falsehoods which are being circu
lated. Oregon City people know and
feel that their neighbors along the
proposed route feel likewise.
PAY ROLL INDUSTRIES
THE ROAD TO MOLALLA
Latest reports from the Clackamas
Southern Railway offices show a
large portion of the new stock sub
scribed, and that at a very early date
work will be commenced again in earn
est, the road to be finished and oper
ating before winter as far as Molalla.
The officers of this Company have
been giving their valuable time to
this missionary work no doubt losing
much by being .away from their own
businesses, at the same tfme this is
being done gladly by each and every
one and success alone can be the re
sult of such endeavor. These gentle
men have been following the old ad
age "if at first you don't succeed, try,
try again." Success in any lije is
worth the effort. These gentlemen are
making history, and if their present
plans are carried through they will
have accomplished something very
seldom, if ever, attained the build-
And still our largest mill keep3 up
the good work for our fellow citizens.
Ask a machine hand how he likes
the reward system and you have "his
goat." Everything runs smoothly
when properly lubricated and this new
departure from the time worn set dai
ly wage, certainly acts like oil, for
no one is dissatisfied with the treat
ment he is receiving while many are
loud in their praises of their superin
tendent, and the management. The
Willamette Mills have always been
blamed for the few troubles, or differ
ences between the employer and the
employe, but it would appear that the
blame should have been laid at other
doors, for this new plan that mill
stands alone, and everyone knows it
employs three-quarters of the popula
tion's wage earners.
Over 500 men are now benefitted
by the system and if the efforts of
the men in the departments, just in
cluded, bring like returns to the re
wards paid in the machine rooms, the
latest pay roll of the city will be in
creased between $50,006 and $75,000
per annum. Pay roll and properity.
BOOSTER EXHIBITION
TO SET NEW RECORD
What 'will undoubtedly be one of
the most successful Booster Day and
Horse Shows ever held in this city
under the auspices of the Orgeoa City
Commercial Club will be held Saturday
April 27. All theexhibits will be of
an industrial nature and there will be
no carnival sho'ws. Many of the mer

the girls band of Oak' Grove will play.

There will be a demonstration train
here from the Oregon Agricultural
College. .
The Oregon City Publicity will have
a special edition, and thousands of
copies will be distributed throughout
the county, giving the farmers the
program of the day's exercises. Man
ager Lazelle is much encouraged over
i the prospects of subscription. Those
who subscribed for last year s booster
and horse show day doubled - the
amount of subscription this year.
Modest Abbe Delile.
It is said that The French Abbe Delile
once had in his household a very quick
tempered relative, with whom be some
times had animated disputes and who
sometimes went so far as to throw
books at the abbe. The abbe must
have been a person of great amiability
and self control. Once, when a particu
larly large and heavy volume was
thrown at him. he caught it gracefully
and raid: ,
"My dear friend. 1 must beg of you
to remember that I prefer smaller
gifts." '
A Bootless Attempt.
"Ma." said Tommy Twaddles, looking-
up from his reading of "Terry the
Tenspot." "what is a bootlessnttempt?"
"It's the sort your father makes to
get irr without my hearing iiirn when
he comes home late from the club,"
answered Ma Twaddles incisively. Pa

TAFT AIDED BY WAR
OF
WASHINGTON, April 9 All hope
on the part of the progressive Republi
cans in presenting a united front
against the nomination of President
Taft when the Republican national
convention meets in Chicago, June 18,
was declared by leaders of the pro
gressives to be abandoned today as a
result of the publication by Gifford
Pinchot of a letter which he wrote to
Senator Robert M. La Follette on Feb
ruary 17. The letter was written aft
er Senator La Follette had refused to
see Pinchot, telling him over the tele
phone, "I never want to see . you or
speak to you again."
In this letter Pinchot' declares that
La Follette understood that the object
of the fight of the progressives was
for principle, and to defeat the nomi
nation of a reactionary as the Republi
can standard bearer for the presi
dency. It declares that La Follette
did not expect the nomination and
denies that Pinchot gave the Wiscon
cin senator any pledges of personal
support. The letter adds:
"This policy was reversed by your
order several weeks ago. I belive
there is nothing to be gained by try
ing to nominate a man whose nomina
tion is impossible. Your appearance
in Chicago with a mere handful of del
egates would seriously impair the
cause."

on April 19th. My work as an at

municipal bodies of my home county

months ago said that I had done for
$125.00. per month three times the
amount of work that for two years
prior to my term cost about twice as
much. This is a matter of public
record. Mr. Tongue has been in office
FOUR years. Do you, Mr. Voter,
