The Retiring Party's Compliments In turning over the control of the affairs of the country to another party the Republicans have the pleasure of reporting everthing in solvent shape, with prosperity at high tide in all the states and outlying possessions. An other item to which attention is called by an official statement sets forth the fact that the foreign trade of the United States for the year 1912 will pass the four-billion line for the first time. When the Dingly law was passed in 1897 it was said that the re turn to a protective policy would crip pie our foreign trade and set the world against us to our heavy1 loss. What really happened was a great and gen eral increase. Our .foreign trade in 1897, the total of exports and imports, was $1,810,000,000. It passed $2,000, 000,000 in 1899, $3,000,000,ooo inl9o6. and will exceed $4,000,000,000 .in the present calendar year. This advance would have been call ed progressiveness before the word fell into freakish disrepute. It is enough now to refer to it as solid pro gress. All has occurred under protec tive tariffs, one of which is still in force, though shortly to be sapped and mined by a minority of voters in vested with complete authority by pluralities in a three-sided fight. A majority of voters supported protec tive platforms in the recent contest, ! but this majority must go into the ! backgrounds for the next two years. 1 They hand over the reign of power with an excellent record, and, what is even better, a good conscience. The Republican party does not con sider the ear 1912 a barren one for itself. In national convention assem bled it rejected a third-term move ment for the second time. It would j defeated than go into any form of demagoy for the sake of expediency. In two former years it was retired. But how quickly and gladly the "peo ple recalled it! v One Kind of a Good Time.

TYPHOID FEVER Take out a sick and accident policy with Dillman & Howland ' and draw 125.00 per week FORUM OF THE PEOPLE MYERS DEFENDS SOCIALISM. OREGON CITY, Dec. 7 (Editor of the Enterprise.) I herewith hand you a Socialistic platformdating back forty eight years, drawn by Karl Marx. The words Spiritual Degrada tion are underscored by me. It fol lows: "In consideration of the fact that the emancipation of the working class must be accomplished by the working class itself, and the struggle for this emancipation does not signify a strug- Igle for class privileges and monopol ies, but for equal rights and duties and for the abolition of class rule. "That the economic dependence of the workingman upon the owner of the tools of production, the source of life, forms the basis of every kind of servitude, of social misery, of spir itual degradation and political depen dence. "That, therefore, the economic emancipation of the. working class is the great end to which every political movement must be subordinated as a simple auxiliary. "That all exertions which up to this time have been directed toward the attainment of this end have failed on account of the want of solidarity be tween the various branches of labor in every land and by reason of the ab sence of a brotherly bond of unity be tween the working classes of differ ent times; "That the emancipation of labor is neither a local nor a national, but a social problem, which embraces all countries in which modern society ex ists, and whose solution depends up on the practical and theoretical co operation of the most advanced coun tries. "The first international labor con gress declares that the international workingmen's association and all so cieties and individuals belonging to it recognize truth, right and morality as the basis of their conduct toward one another and their fellowmen, without respect to. color, creed or na tionality. This congress regards it as the duty of man to demand the rights of a man and citizen, not only for himself, but for every one who does his duty. No rights without dut ies; no duties without rights.'' It would seem from the reading of this that Marx is not opposed to Christianity but seriously objects to Christianity We, the Socialists, claim that the church cannot be Christian and uphold usury, rent and profit. Usury, according to Bible con struction, means interest, rent and profit. , Let us refer you to the following chapters and verses: Isiah 24:2; Neh. 28:8; Ezekiah 18:8, 8:13, and 14; Ezikiah 22:12; Exodus 22:25-27; Lev. 25:36-37; Isiah 65:21-22,Ezi. 23: 26, then wind up with James 5:1-7. Now I ask you church members, one and all, please refer to your bible, read and say to me if when the So cialists demand the abolishment of Intrest, rent and profit and that all men and women shall have the full product oi tneir labor, will you say that it is in conflict with religion? Yours for truth, W. W. MYERS. CORRECTION. ' J. F. Albright, councilman, in a let ter to the Morning Enterprise a few days ago, gave valuable information regarding typhoid immunizing serum. He said, among other things, there were more soldiers killed from ty phoid fever in the Spanish-American war than there were from bullets.
