THE MEAT SUPPLY
It is rather strange that we should
now be figuring upon the raising of
reindeer in Alaska as a source of meat
supply, and as a means of reducing
the high cost of living. Before the
first opening of Oklahoma, when the
dispossession of the cattle barons be
gan, the plea of the barons that they
were keeping down the price of meat
was met with the assertion that the
multiplication of farmers would raise
lip many small small stock raisers to
supply the market, and that, if the
supply of meat should ever fall far
enough behind population to force in-,1
creased prices farmers in all parts
of the country would make stock
raising, on a small scale, a side line
to their agricultural industry.
We have now for many years been
facing the condition which the cattle
barons predicted, but the small stock
raiser is not yet abundantly in evi
dence. He will undoubtedly appear,
in the evolution of things, but just
now he is being anxiously awaited by
millions of town and city dwellers
who find themselves out of meat, and
can not, like the country boy in the
AND
old story; dig for the groudhog. In
the meantime, an experiment in rein
deer farming has been undertaken
and is now flourishing.
The experiment began in 1908,
when a herd of 300 reindeer were tak
en from Labrador to Alaska. The
other day the first consignment of
reindeer meat from? Alaska to the
United States, consisting of 125 rein
deer carcasses, reached Seattle and
was quickly sold there at 20 cents a
pound. The herd in Alaska has con
stantly flourished. At the present
rate of increase it is calculated that
in twenty-five years there will be
3,000,000 reindeer in Alaska. It is
reckoned that Alaska can carry 10,
000,000 head. At 20 cent a pound
reindeer is as far out of reach of the
massess as beef or pork. But the
promise of a steady and great supply
in future, at more popular prices
should move the small farmer to a
new interest in stock raising.
The Democratic party in South
Carolina reveals huge fraruds. It ap
pears after all, that "a white man's
primary" has its black spots.
Ohio is rapidly becoming one of the
most erratic states in the Union. A
good many Kansas and Nebraska peo
ple have already moved back to Ohio.
England and France tell the
tans that they must not interfere with
the Island of Samos. It is easy to
guess what powers hold the big cards
in the Mediterranean.
FORUM OF THE PEOPLE
September 10th, 1912.
In the Courier of September 6, I
notice that Mr. Fel's, hired man says
that my opposition to single tax is
due to our interest in a certain lot in
the City of Portland. He states that
under the graduated single tax we
would pay $833.00 more tax than un
der the present system. Any land tax
ordinary or extraordinary, under the
terms of our contract, which may be
levied will be paid by' the tenants, so
our net income will be precisely the
same under either system of taxa
tion during the continuance of our
present fifty year "lease.
The only property which we own
that would be in any way adversely
affected would be our Clackamas
County holdings consisting of our
home farm of about 100 acres at Ris
ley Station and a seventeen acre
tract which I own near Naef Station.
This would be affected about the
same as other lands in Clackamas
County if single tax is adopted.
Now as to the imputation that we
desire to escape our just share of
taxation, I would state that on the
above mentioned lands and our per
sonal property we paid a tax this year
in Clackamas County of $452.00. In
this connection I would further state
that I was the Chairman of the school
board which recommended the levy
of a ten mill special school tax,
which was unanimously adopted. I
would further say that I acted as sec
retary of a district road meeting at
which we endeavored to levy a spe
cial road tax. This road tax was de
feated, but we hope to do better next
year.
I have also favored both in the Po-
THE GENERAL SAID: "CHARGE."
MORNING ENTERPRISE FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 13, 1912
Scoop Gets a
Old wa
mona and State Grange, and before
the Automobile Club, the enactment
of a law which would place a speci
fic tax of one -dollar per horse power
on all automobiles, said tax, to be
used in bulding state roads; said tax
to be levied in addition to the regular
tax now levied.
Our friends of the soap persuasion
would exempt automobiles entirely
from taxation, and would have you
believe it to be in the interest of the
poor man.
Under the same pretense they
would exempt all railroads from pay
ing any tax on their rails, ties, poles,
wires, grades, bridges, power houses
and machinery. And then by figures
compiled by an imported expert would
seek to show that the railroads would
pay more when thus exempted.
Now in view of the careless disre
gard for the truth by the parasites of
the soap-man, I would infer that it
is not in their contract with Mr. Fels
that they shall keep the ninth com
mandment. Yours truly.

DEMOCRATS TO HAVE

mittee, has called a meeting of the
organization at 11 o'clock next Tues
day morning at Willamette Hall. The
local and national campaigns will be
discussed, and a thorough organiza

has no hope of carrying the county

SEVERAL CEMENT
WALKS BEING LAID
Several cement walks' were con
structed in this city the past month.
Duane Ely is having a walk placed
along the front of his store on
Seventh street as well as in front of
his large warehouse, the contractor
being Harry Jones. W. A. Long is
having a walk placed in front of his
home; on Seventh street. This con
tract was awarded to Oglesby &
Criswell. Others along that street
have decided to construct cement
walks, this proving more satisfactory
end lasting much longer than the
wooden walks. There is consider
able travel along Seventh street, and
there are still some walks that are in
need of repair.

TROUBLE ON DIAMOND
DETROIT, Mich., Sept. 12 Ty
Cobb, Detroit's sensational conter
fielder, is again the storm center of a
baseball quarrel. The trouble started
in the third inning of yesterday's
game with Philadelphia. Umpire
Connolly called Cobb out for stepping
out of the batter's box. A spectator
in the grandstand hit Connolly in the
mouth with a bottle.
Cobb then seated himself on the
bench instead of taking his. position
in the field, but finally went out. The
wrangling did not stop and before it
was over Vitt and Bush were chased.
Umpire Connolly sent a full report
of the affair to President Johnson.
The results Thursday follow:.

Portland 4-1 (first game 13 innings;

SUIT EXPECTED TODAY
The $10,000 damage suit of Victor
Wasiljeff against the Hawley Pulp &
Paper Company was called for trial
before Circuit Judge Campbell and a
jury Thursday morning. The testi
mony on both sides was heard and it
is expected that a verdict will be ren
dered today. The plaintiff, while in
the employ of the defendant, suffered
serious injury to his right arm. He
says, it was caught in a pulley as a
result of negligence upon the part of
agents of the company. Dimick &
Dimick are his attorneys. The com
pany denies that it was negligent, and
says that it safeguards its employees
as far as possible.
WOMAN'S CLUB TO
ELECT DELEGATES

WEEKLY BIBLE CLASS
(Communication)
WThile the good party man studies
his platform and the perplexed inde
pendent studies five platforms to see
which one really is the panacea for
all the country's, ills it is worth while
remembering that there is -one plat
form back of them all, that has start
ed the men that have started every
great movement worth anything for
humanity in the last 2000 years, and
we use it to decorate our center tab
les or catch dust on the lofty book
shelf. This platform has been enact
ed into human nature and its framer
is the Almighty. Its first laws were
the Ten Commandments and its high
est law is the Golden' Rule. It con
tains, the biography of the only per
fect man that has ever lived and is
caught up to it and it is so 'safe and
always in advance of the times. Its
progressiveness is so certain that the
vanguard! of reformers, have never
sane' that the most conservative need
not fear it, and so simple that a
child can follow it. Yet to the inter,
pretation of it the sages of the ages
have given it their profound thought.
The bible is the platform of human
ity promulgated by divinity and its
truthfullness has been tested by gen
erations of men who have lived by it.
It requires only that the- man should
honestly study it and faithfully apply
it.
Rev. Mr. Edwards of the Congre
gational church, believing that the
members of his congregation can find
no book so interesting or so momen
tous, proposes to conduct a Bible
ClassJ on Tuesday evenings at the
church for an informal study of the
Book in its great outstanding features
as a teacher of the world's teachers,
a revealer of God and an inspirer of
men. The first meeting was held
Thursday evening at 7:30. Strangers
in the city are cordially invited to
attend the meetings. The study be
gan with an introduction: "What is
the Bible?"
