STATE ELECTION RESULTS
Republicans who arej faint-hearted
and who have been scared into fits- by
the big noise of the Roosevelt-Perkins-Harvester
Trust Party may . take
courage over the showing manifested
by the returns from Vermont, where
a state election was held Tuesday.
While the Republican vote was cut
down, this was to have been expected
with a third party in the field, and the
wild claims of the Bull Moose organi
. zation that Republicans would be third
in the race have been proven unfound
ed. It is true the election for Govern
or will be thrown into the legislature,
but this body has a Republican plu
rality, and the only thing to prevent
the election of a Republican Governor
will be a fusion of Democrats and
Rooseveltians in the legislature.

disappointing to the Bull Moose peo
ple though they have a fair chance
of securing places on the Republican
electoral ticket, through the machin
ery of the state government, imper
sonated by Governor Johnson, candi
date for vice-president on the Roose
velt ticket.
The Democrats are making small
gains in Vermont, but the party fight
is sometwhat over-shadowed by the
struggle between the Republicans and
the so-called Progressives. Mr. Roose
velt may find it difficult to reconcile
his "confession of faith" with some of
his political allies in the East, in Ore
gon, in Clackamas County and else
where. -e apologize to one Max Tel
ford for the seeming inference, for he is
one man who the Enterprise believes
is acting in sincereity.
Clackamas lost the first prize for
the best county exhibit at the Oregon
State Fair by the very narrow margin
of three points, scoring 94 to 97 points
for Benton county. Lack of space is
said to be the sole reason for Clacka
mas being unable to making a show
ing sufficient to win first honors. How
ever, second prize is good, and we
gave Benton a good run for her mon
ey. Residents of this county who work
ed so earnestly and faithfully to ar
range our exhibit are certainly de
serving of no little credit and should
be so encouraged by their showing to
try a little harder for the first prize
next year.
