GRANGE TO DISCUSS The Maple
IMPORTANT SUBJECT Lane Grange
at its meeting next Saturday, will
discuss a subject of vital importance
to Oregon City. The subject will be,
"Are the Farmers Under Moral Obli
gation to Patronize Home Mer
"chants"? If the farmers, or the
grangers, decide that they should
not patronize home merchants, the
merchants of Oregon City will be
the sufferers. It therefore behooves
the merchants of this city and other
workers for the advancement of the
municipality to be present and try
to show the grangers that the Ore
gon City merchants should be given
the preference. There are many rea
sons why this should be done. In the
first place they give better values
than the Portland merchants. They
can do it for their expenses are less.
In the second place the purchasing
from them will aid the entire county.
Surely patriotism is not a back num
ber in the great county of Clacka
mas. In the third place, if better
values were offered in Portland, the
expense of going there would be too
much. Farmers and grangers, we
urge you to help those who help you!
Help Portland if you want to, it is
all right, but don't you think Oregon
City should have your trade?
Some men are so sensitive about
cause and effect that they don't want
anybody to mention that fire will
burn,, water drown, or a misplaced
switch make trouble.
Pocketbook of the Wife
Our Most Serious
Problem
By JAMES J. HILL, Railroad Builder of the Northwest
T
N the growth -of the American republic we have regarded the
tariiT as of serious importance. We have political questions
which seriotislv disturb business situations.
BUT THERE IS NOTHING MORE ' IMPORTANT IN THIS
NATION OR THE LIFE OF ANY OTHER NATION THAN THE POCK
ETBOOK OF THE WIFE.
e
We do not produce as much as we might, BECAUSE MEN
AND WOMEN ARE LAZY WITT! FARM LAND and do not
take the best advantage of their opportunity. If they did beef would
be cheaper, flour much lower in price and the green vegetable supply
far greater than at the present time.
Yet there is another point to be considered, a point which I have
considered for more than forty years in developing a railway system,
and that is how wisely or how ignorantly the woman of the farm, the
wife. IIANDLES THE POCKETBOOK which is under her con
trol. The original question of social economics which we have to con
sider at the present time is not the tariff or the finances of one of the
richest governments in the world, but THE POCKETBOOK OF
THE WIFE. I emphatically state that I do not mean the pocket
book of the husband, the earning factor of the family, but the pocket
book of the wife, who has THE HOME AND THE CHILDREN
UNDER HER CONTROL. : -

BOURNE WK FIGHT
FOR BIG POSTOFFICE
WASHINGTON, Feb. 19. The sub
committee of the Senate Building
Committee has agreed today to re
port favorably Senator Bourne's
amendment to the public building
bill appropriation of $1,000,000 for a
postofflce building in Portland. Sen
ator Pourhe made a strong argument
before the committee, explaining the
great congestion .in the postofflce,
due to the rapid growth of Portland
and the Northwest.
The committee finally said it was
convinced an emergency existed, and
accepted Bourne's amendment. It
also agreed to report favorably
Bourne'3 amendment increasing the
appropriation for The Dalles of $24,
000, and an amendment introduced by
Chamb-rlain adding $10,000 to the
appropriation for the Albany Build

TO BE OPPOSED
OLYMPIA, Wash. (Feb. 19 The
first attempt to place the Washing
ton Legislature on record as oppos
ed to the system of conducting the
United States national forests will be
made this week when a memorial,
introduced in the Senate this morn
ing asking the government to with
draw the national forests of Lewis
County, is brought up for passage.
Behind this measure are the major
ity of the Representatives from the
agricultural districts. The memorial,
which is directed at Congress, sets
forth that the forest reserves are a
menace to the development of the
agricultural territory of the West.
Forest service officials are denounced
bitterly.
A bill was introduced in, the Sen
ate this morning creating a State
Highway Department "to have control
of all the highway work of the state.
A bill was passed by the Senate

MORNING ENTERPRISE THURSDAY, FEBRUABY 20, 1913
Nothing Like
CLERKS TO BE GIVEN
PAY FOR FULL TIME
SALEM, Or. Feb. 19. Despite the
frequent announcements of various
members that if there shall be an ad
journed session of the Ligislature to
consider any bills which the Govern
or may teto, the corps of clerks and
stenographers will be cut down and
the expense reduced to a minimum,
it is now apparent that the members
of the special committee on mileage
and per diem, at least, have changed
their minds in this regard. It is not
likely that the members will turn
down a committee report allowing
attaches extra pay in such a case.
The report of the committee on
mileage and per diem of Senators,
the financial items of which are to
be provided for in the big general
appropriation bill, was made at noon
today, immediately preceding recess.
When asked as to the amounts to
be paid attaches, members of the com
mittee said this report is not ready,
as "they will have to be. paid for 150
days if we work them that long."
The total amount to be paid to
Senators, according to the commit
tee report, as well as the expense
bills to be footed, including mileage
of members of junkets, is $5244.95.
The largest amount of mileage will
be received, by Thompson, whose
home is at' Lakeview, the round trip
being 1198 miles. The amount he
will receive is $179.70.
BODY OF WESTERN
ET iS CREMATED
OAKLAND, Cal. Feb. 19. The
body of Joaquin Miller was reduced
to ashes shortly before noon today.
: Prior to the public funeral ceremony
at an Oakland crematory, a private
service was held at the Heights, Mid
ler's home in the Oakland foothills.
There were present at the home Mrs.
Abbie M. Miller, the widow, Miss
Jtianita Miller, the daughter, Colonel
John P. Irish, a lifelong friend of the
poet, and the Rev. William Day
Simmonds, a Unitarian minister. The
short poems by Miller were read by
the pastor. A few words of tribute
by Colonel Irish ended the ceremon
ies. At the crematory the services
were nearly as simple, Rev. Mrs.
Simmonds officiating. Part of the
ashes of the poet will be scattered
to the wind at the Heights and the
rest will be placed in a rock mauso
leum built by the poet himself near
his home.

REFUNDS HONEY PAID
LONG ADO FOR PAPER
If all men were as honest as the
writer of the undersigned letter,
which was received Wednesday morn
ing by William Andresen, . the police
would soon find themselves hunting
for jobs; and the jails would be torn
down. W. H. Davies, the writer, was
the head of a small private school
that was operated in this city about
12 years ago and while he was con
ducting the school he also "started a
paper called the" "Academy", which
was devoted to the interests of the
school. Through adverse circum
stances the publication was discon
tinued before all the subscriptions
had expired. No thought was given
to the matter and Mr. Davies left
Oregon City and the school and the
"Academy'' were both forgotten, ex
cept by a few personal friends and
former students of his school. The
following is a copy of a letter that
was received by Mir. Andresen:
"Burmeister & Andresen, Dear sirs :
A number of year sago I published
a small paper "Academy" in Oregon
City. It was discontinued and I find,
as near as I can tell, a balance of
18 cents due you on your subscrip
tion, for which you never received
the paper. Please return the inclos
ed card, give your address, and I will
send you enough money to cover this
amount, or a little more.
"Supposing that you have forgotten
this, and hoping that payment now
of this small item, though long de
layed, will be satisfactory,
I remain yours truly,
W. H. DAVIES,
, Albion, Wash.

George Arstrong, of West Oregon
City, was arrested Wednesday by

Mrs. Delia Long Unable to Stand
On Her Feet More Than a Few
Minutes at a Time.
Pendergrass, Ga. Mrs. Delia Long,
ef this place, in a recent letter, says:
"For. five or six years, I suffered agon
ies with womanly troubles.
Often, I couldn't sit up more than a
few minutes at a time, and if I stood
on my feet long, I would faint
I took Cardui, and it helped me im
mediately. Now, I can do my work all
the time, and don't suffer like I did."-
Take Cardui when you feel ill in any
way weak, tired, miserable, or under
the weather. Cardui is a strength
building tonic medicine for women.
It has been found to relieve pain and
distress caused by womanly troubles,
and is an excellent medicine to have on
hand at all times.
Cardui acts on the womanly consti
tution, building up womanly strength,
toning up the nerves, and regulating
the womanly organs.
Its half century of success is due to
merit. It has done good to thousands.
Will you try it? It may be just what
you need. Ask your druggist about
Cardui. . He will recommend it.

BILL
BEATEN
SALEM, Or., Feb. 19 Senate bill
217, by Calkins, which was reconsid
ered after being lost several days
ago, and laid on the table, was again
defeated today, after being attacked
by several members, who said it
would in certain circumstances per
mit grave injustice to be done. The
bill empowered counties to improve
roads by special assessment on ad
jacent property. It developed that
persons with large tracts that would
be benefited could not be taxed if
their land did not lie directly on the
roads.
A FOOLISH QUESTION. .
The editor of the woman's page
was on his vacation and the sporting
editor had jumped into the breach,
says the "Editor and Publisher."
"Well, what do you think of this,"
he snorted, as he held up a perfum
ed communication. "Here's a fool
woman wants to know how to make
a lemon tart; just as though a lemon
wasn't tart enough."

than anything they can buy. But
