HARDSURFACING Is the trend of
OF MAIN STREET business on
Main Street to
the north? Many business men be
lieve that it is, and it would not be
astonishing if within a half dozen
years there were at least a score of
business houses where there are now
only two or three. The hardsurfacing
of Main between Moss and the Aber
nettty, the building of the Clacka-f
mas Southern, the establishment of a
freight yard by the Portland Railway,
Light & Power Company and many
other improvements will tend to make
lower Main Street attractive to bus
iness men. And of course the value
of real estate on the thoroughfare will
enhance accordingly. In view of ah
this it is incomprehensible how any
property owner could object to the
improvement of the street with hard
surface pavement. And yet there has
been objection and such determined
objection that the courts have been
called upon to make decision. Jhe
property owners who objected to pay
ing their share of the assessment for
the improvement have won a tempor
ary victory. But in the long run it
is believed they will have to pay. And
even ' if they shouldn't, is it possible
that they will be willing to accept
the benefits of a street, built by oth
ers? The pity is that more streets of
this city are not paved with hard
surface. It is coming and the prop
erty owners had just as well become
reconciled to the facts and get ready
to share the benefits which for the
Marriage Is Without a Doubt
the Greatest of All Human
institutions
' By HALL CA1NE. Author
I
LOOK UPON MARRIAGE AS JHE. GREATEST OF ALL HUMAN
INSTITUTIONS. I THINK IT IS AN IMMENSE SUCCESS AND
THAT WOMAN, NOT MAN, HAS MADE IT SO. WITHOUT IT
THE HUMAN FAMILY WOULD FALL INTO SWIFT AND COM
PLETE DISINTEGRATION. '
Whether marriage comes out of the family or the family out of
marriage is a metaphysical question that does uot trouble me. What
I see in the world is a mighty force that holds the children of men to
gether as nothing else could. -
" - - e "
I think MARRIAGE HAS JUSTIFIED ITSELF, that the
majority of marriages are happy ones and that, taken together, they
constitute the mightiest factor in the welfare of humanity. - My ex
perience has been that this is TRUE ALL;THK WORLD OVER
and among all sorts and conditions of people,-from people like Mr.
Chevalier's "Old Dutch" to the people who wear coronets and the
people who sit on thrones.
But I also think that if marriage as an institution has been a
blessing to the human family it has not been by virtue of any legal
contracts or religious sacraments whatsoever, but solely by the opera
tion of that BEAUTIFUL NATURAL LAW which Jesus t de
scribed when he spoke of a man. leaving father and mother and cleav
ing to his wife, and they, too, being one flesh whom God hath joined
together and therefore no man might put asunder. " , . ' i

most part will be greatly enhanced
property values. Some day Oregon
City will have as good streets as
Eugene, Salem, Albany and other
progressive cities of the state. It is
regrettable that we should be among
the cities holding up the rear instead
of at the front of municipal progress.
HUNDREDS LOOK TO The many
OREGON AS MECCA letters receiv
ed by Q. E.
Freytag, manager of the Promotion
Department of the Commercial Club,
from persons in the East who are de
siring of settling in this state are
encouraging. They indicate that with
in a few years all the fertile acres
of this state will be inhabited and be
made productive. Oregon certainly
has a great future, and the residents
of the state now should do all with
in their power to induce other per
sons to come here. Of course the
great possibilities in Oregon, as in
all other states, lie in the tilling of
the soil. The necessities of life must
be produced before we can afford the
luxuries. Mr. Buckle in his great his
tory on civilization points out that
the individual, as a rule, who accom
plishes wonders in science, literature
etc. must have his material wants
taken care of, and that to be success
ful in either of these lines he must
not have to worry regarding the
source of his next meal. If he has
to devote his time to providing his
next meal, it is obvious that he will
not have time for research, investi
gation and experiment. -If Dr. Car
rel, the eminent scientist of the
Rockefeller Institute, who is making
discoveries almost daily which will
prolong human life, were compelled
to produce the meat and bread which
he eats, it goes without saying that
he would hardly have time for the
great work he is accomplishing. Ore
gon has the fertile soil and the cli
mate for the production of everything
in great quantities that is necessary
for sustaining human life, and it will
not be long until the men and women
who achieve other things for the ben
efit of human life will have their
headquarters in this great state.
Oregon first should be the motto of
every webfoot.

FORUM OF THE PEOPLE
PLEA ' MADE FOR ROADS.
OREGON CITY, Jan. 15. (Editor
of the Enterprise.) I have, been a
resident of Clackamas County fcr
several years, and during that time
tne development of the county has
ueen very siow as compared witn
counties less tavorably situated. The
ola inhabitants are responsiole to a
large degree for the slow growth and
development of the county, ana also
uregoa City, it is true some portions
of tne county are making rapid strides
in modern development, but that is
being brought about by the new blood
Uial lias been coming into tne coun
ty in recenf years.
Tne improvement of our roads is
one of tne necessities of modern times
and no county can hope to develop
without reasonable road improve
ments so as to accomodate our citi
zens who live in tiie interior of tne
county. W hen a road meeting is held
to raise an additinal tax to assist
in a county road improvement, the
"moss-back" is there with his ham
mer, and by a proper application of
uis ingenious methods, he receives
tae required assistance to defeat .the
improvement.
When Seventh Street in Oregon
City was under consideration for a
good permanent improvement- in 191a,
so as to make it sale for the farmers
to pass over with their heavy loads,
the "moss-back'' was on the grould
with his little hammer and defeated
the improvement.
When lower Main Street was being
improved it occurred to the "moss
back' that the improvement was too
good for Oregon City, and should be
knocked and the knocker's hammer
was applied with a vengeance but
the progressive spirit prevailed and
the improvement is being completed.
When the - Molalla railrbad was
started, the natural knocker and the
paid knocker was on the ground from
day to day stabbing the company and
impugning the motives of its officers,
but as soon as the Southern Pacific
Company started to build into the Mo
'lalla country from Canby, which
would take a large part of the Molalla
trade away from Oregon City, and
thereby reduce the business and rents
the knockers began to get under cov
er. . . .
The way to develop Clackamas
County is to help every community,
and not try to grab every thing in
sight for yourself. Help Wilsonville,
Canby, Sandy, Marquam, Molalla and
every other town in the county to get
what is coming to them in the way
of school and road improvements, and
not work wholly for your own im
mediate vicinity.
I would suggest that we all work
together during the year 1913, and
loosen up a little, and by united ef
fort, .work and complete the Molalla
railroad and work . for better county
roads and schools, and at the end of
the present year we will feel that we
are broader minded and far better oft
from a financial standpoint.

It was the correct thing in the sev

hats at table. "The Rules of Civility,
or Certain Ways of Deportment" pub

Supposing "a person of quality de
tains you t( dine with him," It is pre

Is sit he must keep himself covered
till the rest sit down and the person
of quality has put on his hat If the
person of -honor drinks a health to you
you must be sure to be uncovered. If
he speaks to yon, you must likewise
be uncovered till you have answered
him. If one rises from the table be
