PROCEEDING The interested pub
BY PROGRAM. lie had its eyes
opened Saturday at the meeting call
ed for the purpose of condemning
the Clackamas County , Court. The
frame-up, for it was nothing else, was
plhnned to a nicety, as was evidenc
ed by the reading of the names of
the members of the resolutions com
mittee from a paper that Chairman
Smith promptly extracted from his
pocket. It must be admitted that
several hundred farmers were in bad
company, but they did not see' the
game. Credit for the arrangements
must be given to E. D. Olds, who for
years grew fat on the country pay
roll, and who had a natural peevish
disposition over being separated from
the county exchequer.
The Enterprise has no idea that
the people of Clackamas County are
going to let Olds, Bob Schuebel, S.
L. Casto et al do their thinking for
them. The divorce of Olds from the
pay roll is too recent for that. Mr.
Casto, as president of the Society of
Equity, has a deep rooted grievance
because the county court declined to
permit the courtrooms to be used as
a meeting place of the society. We
don't know what pains Mr. Schuebel,
but maybe his neighbors do.
As we understand it, the plot is to
make a report scoring the members
of the county court and to recom
mend their recall. Perhaps a-sufficient
number of signatures can be
obtained in Clackamas County .to
bring about a recall election, but we
don't think so. If the leaders in the
movement had been disposed to be
fair, they would have appointed one
of their own number of an an investi
gating committee, permitted the coun
ty court to name one member and let
the two choose a third.
." So the public will not sit by in eag
er anticipation of the committee's
report. If it has not already been
drafted, it is not because the commit-
MR. GRIFFITH The appointment of
AS PRESIDENT. . Franklin T. Grif
fith as president of tli? Portland Rail
way, Light & Power Comnany, to suc
ceed B. S. Josselyn on July 1, is
particularly gratifying to hundreds
of people of Oregon City to whom
Mr. Griffith is personally known and
with whom he has a clase personal
acquaintance. To taoe of us who have
watched his career in the last 15
years and have tjoted his advance
ment from the position of a book
keeper in the paper mills to a place
at the head of the largest public ser
vice corporation in- the Northwest,
the tidings are especially pleasing.
Mr. Griffith is a young man, a product
of the Western country. His instincts
and sympathies are all Western in
the broadest sense of the word. He
has steadily forged upward .to the
top in corporation law. He is clean
cut and works more hours a day than
any man in Portland. The Enterprise
was the first newspaper to' suggest
Mr. Griffith's name in connection
with the position to which he has
been appointed and it anticipates
nothing else than a successful ad
ministration of the company's affairs
under his capable direction.
the open caucus' said the President.
An attempt to widen the foreign
market for American goods and to
encourage reciprocity treaties with
all foreign nations is embodied in
the new tariff bill in a clause empowJ
ering the President to grant favors
to any nation that gives mutual con
cessions' to the United States.

SINGLE TARIFF BILL
PLAN OF PRESIDENT
WASHINGTON, April 7. Presi
dent Wilson said today he was "on
the fence" as to whether the tariff
should be revised by scedule or in a
single bill. Senators Simmons, Shive
ly, Hughes, James, Stone, Williams,
and Gore,- Democratic members of
the Senate finance committee, argued
unanimously with the President for
a schedule by schedule revision, but
at its conclusion the President said
he would still further consider the
matter before reaching a decision.
The President had fairly made up
his mind that the single bill idea was
the more effective and believes that
such a measure could pass. He told
the Senators that he didn't think any
Senators voting against the bill
would venture to bear the burden of
responsibility for defeating the party
program. It was suggested that the
Lousiana Senators would oppose the
bill, but the President, it it said,
took account of that loss, and figures
that the measure still would have
enough votes to pass.
The Senators went away with the
impression that while the President
was still open to conviction, he was
inclined somewhat to the single tar
iff bill.
The entire question must be decid
ed, as far as the President's wishes
are concerned, before the Democratic
caucus meets tomorrow.
Representative A. Mitchell Palmer,
of Pennsylvania, chairman of the
caucus sought the President's opin
ion as to whether the caucus tomor
row should be open.

MURDOCH NAMED FOR
SPEAKER BY MOOSE
WASHINGTON, April 7. Progres
sives in the House when that branch
of Congress met today declared their
solidarity as a third party by putting
into nomination for the speakership
Representative Victor- Murdock, of
Kansas. .
Representative Walter M. Chand
ler of New York, was chosen to make
the nominating speech. He eulogized
the Kansan and described him as that
"militant, aggressive, red-blooded
Progressive from the West."
Some of tho old wheelhbrses of
the Progressive organization,, however,
had given it out that they would not !
support Murdock or the Progressives'
plan of organization. Chief among
them was Representative Lenroot, of
Wisconsin, who had put on record
his belief that he could do more ef
fective work, along progressive lines,
by supporting President Wilson's pol
icy. One or two others similarly had
withdrawn.
Chandler's nominating speech was
understood to be an outline of the
new organization's intentions and
ambitions and therefore was awaited
with more than usual interest, part
of his declaration follows:
"I wish to announce that we Pro
gressives are not organized in this
House for mere purposes of antago
nism and obstruction. We have a de
finite program of -our own and we
shall use every means to accomplish
its purpose. We shall, at times, be
compelled to assume an attitude of
opposition and resistance, for we will
oppose with faces of flint and hearts
of steel every non-progressive, reac
tionary bill introduced."
GET LICENSE, NOW!
Dogs in Oregon City which have
not been licensed had better seek
the "tall timber". Chief of Police
Shaw, the city council and, most im
portant of all, the dog catcher, are
after them. The dogcatcher captured
10 canines Saturday and one face
tious man announced that the price
of sausage would be reduced at once.
The dogs captured, according to Chief
of Police Shaw, will be kept in the
pound several days so that the own
ers may call for them. Any dog that
is not licensed may be impounded
any day.

High Cost of Foolishness
Our Modern Problem
By Mrs. AUSTIN N. PALMER of the Political Study Club,
New York
'TS NOT THE COST OF LIVING, BUT THE COST OF FOOL
ISHNESS, THAT'S GRAYING THE HAIR OF THE MODERN
HUSBAND AND FATHER.
To my mind the most pathetic figure in our life today ia
the middle class wage earner, the man who on a small salary is striving
to enable his wife and daughters to ""KEEP DP APPEAKANCES."
Heedless feminine folly is the REAL PROBLEM OF HOME
ECONOMICS.
It's the high cost of foolishness that's the horrible cutworm

The funeral of the late Mrs. R. C.
Williams was held Monday afternoon
at the First Baptist Church. The ser
vices were conducted by the Rev. W.
T. Milliken. A quartet composed of
Mr. and Mrs. E.T. Burke, Mrs. Nieta
Barlow Lawrence and John W. Loder
sang "Abide With Me" ' and "Nearer
My God to The '. A large number of
friends and the relatives paid their
last respects to the dead at the
church. The services at the grave
were private and consisted of a pray
er by Dr. Milliken. The floral offer
ings were beautiful. The pallbearers
were relatives of the deceased and
were E. L. Shaw, M tD. Latourette,
Lee Harding, Clarence Fields and L.
O. Harding.
Mrs. Harding was a daughter of
Mr. aad Mrs. Henry Harding and the
wife of Dr. R. C. Williams of Los

What Does
the Home Need
This Season?
How about the refrigerator?
Do you think it will serve an
other season? Old refrigerators
are unsanitary and unsatisfac
tory. A new one at the right
price would be an excellent in
vestment. -
What about the glassware
supply, and how about the table
linens? Have you taken an
- inventory recently of the con
tents of the china cabinet and
the sideboard? What about
the new rugs? Have you giv
en thought to the' question of,
curtains?
This is a good time to think
of these things. The stores
are full of splendid opportuni
ties to "buy right."

The Workers.
The prosperity of the world depends
upon the men who walk in the fresh
furrows and through the rustling corn,
upon those whose faces are radiant with
the glare of furnaces, upon the delvers
in dark mines, the workers Id shops,
upon those who give to the wintry air
the music of the ax and upon those who
wrestle with the wild waves of the
raging sea.-Ingersoll. .
CONCENTRATION.
The burning glass furnishes an Il
lustration that should be studied by
every one who would make the most
effective use of his mental powers.
The glass concentrates the sun's rays
to one point.
Every man needs a mental burning
glass.
So long as his powers are diffuse they
will be as powerless as the sunshine,
but when brought together to a focal
point something will happen.
The men who accomplish things are
those w'ho can shut out all the world
and bring their whole minds to the
consideration . of one subject. It Is
only so that they can pierce it through
like the burning glass.
One of the greatest intellectual pleas
ures is to take up any problem, analyze
it, pick it to pieces, look all over, un
der and through it, find out every
thing about it in a word, master it.
Thomas A. Edison is perhaps the
greatest inventor in the world's history
because he has the power of concen
tration. He shuts himself up with his
problem, often without food or sleep,
until he has gained complete mastery
of its every detail.
By concentration we can even affect
the action of some given part of the
body. We can affect the beating of
the heart, the warmth of a particular
point, the health of an organ.
It is a matter of organizing our
forces and directing them to one point.
And on it depends mental efficiency.
On it depends success.
