IMMIGRATION, After all of the ef
GOOD AND BAD fort to restrain im
migration there are signs that immi
gration will soon begin to restrain it
self. A falling off has long been no
ticeable from countries in Western
and Northern Europe, and since Ger
man colonization began the surplus
population of that ebpire has,' to a
marked degree, bee influenced by
the imperial policy of colonization.
There is now but small surplus of
population in Scandinavian lands, the
amelioration of the condition of the
Irish peasantry has checked the move
ment out of that country, and com
paratively small English and Scottish
immigration formerly coming here
has been diverted to British Ameri
ca under the wise and energetic poU
icies of the Dominion Government.
Now there are signs of a cessation
in the movement to this country from
the Latin and Slavic countries of
Southern and Southeastern Europe.
Emigration from Italy lias already
been so heavy that the labor supply
of that country has been reduced to
a point where wages are advancing
to a point offering more of comfort
and of promise to the workers who re
main. Besides this, Italy is also de
veloping colonies fronting the Medi
terranean, and will soon deflect most
of its emigrants to these.' The driv
ing of the Turk out of Europe will
open up fields for industrial and agri
cultural exploitation which will offer
another outlet to the surplus Slav
population which has been pouring in
here. A great diminution in South
ern and Southeastern European im
migration can now be seen. -
But a large part, in fact, the larg
est part, of our problem, will remain.
While the honest and industrious
workers of these countries finding
more renumerative employments
than formerly at home, or becoming
colonists of their native lands, will
cease to invade us in great numbers,'
the criminal elements against the ad
mission of which we have been pro
testing, will still remain to plague us.
If present exclusion laws have been
found insufficient, the insufficiency is
more likely to be more fully demon
strated in the future than it has been
in the past. These elements will not
cease their activities in trying to
break into a country where the "pick
ing" is better than in any other, nor
will they locate in any colony subject
to the government of the countries
in which they are already too well
known for their own convenience.
And any improvement in wages can
make no appeal to people to whom
wages are always a minor considera
tion. We shall soon be receiving
much fewer immigrants of the sort
we could use to advantage, but get
ing just as many of the sort we don't
want, unless the laws for their exclu
sion are better enforced. Enforce
ment of such laws should be easier
after the incentive for honest people
to immigrate is reduced and it will
be easier to draw a hard and fast line.
FORUM OF THE PEOPLE
DOCKS URGED.
Oregon City, March 14. To the Ed
itor of Enterprise I see that the mat
ter of a Bublic Dock is again being
discussed and let me say that in my
judgment after a ' life entirely spent
at Oregon City, there is today no one
thing that would help more to build
up the business interests of Oregon
City than a public dock.
AH petty personalities should be
set aside. The business men should
realize that the time has come in the
history of Oregon City when the busi
ness can not all be done on one or
two blocks as of yore, but must branch
out and what will benefit one section
will benefit the entire city..
As to the location let the steam
boat men pay more it shall be located
and let the business men say we are
going to have a public dock and,
large or small, can have a fair deal
in Oregon City and thereby create a
completion that will give a cheaper
freight and a better passenger service
so that tourists and homeseekers will
often come to Oregon City by. boat.
A free dock will compel the Portland
Electric to give us cheaper fares.
Now, I can hear the kicker say you are
off. We wiil lose all our trade if
we get cheaper rates to Portland. I
answer by saying that cheaper trans
portation is all that is required to
bring people here to reside, who are
now doing business and living in
Portland and in a short time instead
of a population of less than ten
thousand we will have twenty-five
thousand and the man that can not
do more business with the increased
population that is bound to come, had
better hunt another location. It will
not only benefit Oregon City but the
entire community. It will cause this
to be one of the great shipping points
of the valley when we get a deeper
channel to deep water. It will cause
farmers, who do not come here, to
take advantage of our shipping faci
lities and thus become permanent
customers among our merchants for
their home supplies, whereas, under
existing conditions they are almost
compelled to go elsewhere to ship
their produce, so I say get together
on a broad foundation and pull to
gether as never before for a greater
amount of business and a greater pop
ulation not only for Oregon City
but the entire county.

LIFE.
E are going through a time of great religious uncertainty j
and intense social unrest. Man in large measure seems to
have lost the satisfactions that come from within himself.
He has LOST HOLD ON GREAT PURPOSES IX
He has lost his sense of proportion "between the eternal values
and the temporal comforts and social arrangements. i
Because of this we witness the peculiar phenomena of confusion :
which are manifested by some representatives of the two kinds of im
portant leadership among men. The preacher, whose main business ;
it should be to lift up men in spiritual freedom, tends, because of the ;
lack of interest in his special work, to outside activities. j
'
HE CEASES TO BE THE PRIEST AT THE ALTAR AND BECOMES
THE POLITICIAN, THE SOCIAL AGITATOR. ON THE OTHER HAND,
THE STATESMAN AND THE POLITICIAN SEEK TO DRAW ATTEN
TION FROM THEIR INCOMPETENCE IN THEIR OWN PROVINCE AND
TAKE THE LINE OF LEAST RESISTANCE.
The preacher MUST ATTRACT ATTENTION. He has a
message on every political situation, and he has a dogmatic word
ready for every industrial contest, although he may not have ex-
aminea tne cas ana ne is chh in iwmmittino himi-f tn iaiioI n-.
grams, lie ntWiftJib A rULlTIUIAJN.
When he becomes a politician he KILLS WHAT IS LEFT OF
THE RELIGIOUS SENTIMENT which he is supposed to stimu
late. He may be talked of and become notorious, but be is a failure
as the revealer of the divine spirit of men.
The Royal Road
To Successful
Shopping -
By John P. Fallon
The advertisements which ap
pear in THE ENTERPRISE
every day may be likened unto
sign posts which direct and
guide you to reliable stores,
honest merchandise and eco
nomical buying.
Follow the advertisements
closely. They will lead you to
the most dependable stores in
town. They will ,tell you of
pure foods -and where to buy
them. They will tell you of
the latest fashions, the most be
coming styles and where to pur
chase wearing apparel to best
advantage.
They will enable you to he
come thoroughly posted on
everything you buy, to become
a judge of values and to select
all your needs at the lowest
prices for which the best goods
can be sold.
Bear in mind that every ad
. vertisement in THE ENTER
PRISE tells the story of a re
liable store, honest merchandise
and right prices. You take no
chances when dealing with
THE ENTERPRISE'S advertis
ers. If you would travel the "Roy
al Road" to successful shopping
read the advertisements in
THE ENTERPRISE closely and
constantly every morning.
