BORING, OREGON, April 10. (Ed
itor of the Enterprise.) I wish to
make a few statements through the
columns of your paper in regard to
the taxpayers meeting called by Ed
Olds and others on April 5, 1913.
This meeting put me very much in
mind of an old-fashioned County Con
vention, where everything is cut and
dried. To one that has participated
in the old tima convention it would
appear that Mr. Olds had got his
schooling there. He seemed to be
directing the meeting and it seemed
more of an Ed Olds meetings than a
taxpayers meeting. j
The principal charges against the
County Court was made in a lengthy
speech from Ed Olds. He occupied
the floor most of the afternoon dis
cussing the old worn out bridge topic
which has been thoroughly discussed
and published heretofore, and which
all the taxpayers are familiar with.
It seems quite clear that the com
plaint in full consist of the fact that
Mr. Olds is feeling bad because he
did not ge the bridge contracts and
he was unable to. milk the county as
heretofore.
It is just possible that if a commit
tee should be appointed to investi
gate "and examine the bridge contracts
and work done and material bought
for the county by the bridge contract
or, Mr. Olds, it might reveal as many
interesting facts to the taxpayers as
an investigation committee for the
County Court would.
I was present at the meeting and
noticed that the noise was no made
by the big taxpayers of the county
but by the small taxpayers and non
taxpayers of Clackamas County that
had some petty grievence against the
County Court. One man found fault
with the court because they refused the
Farmers Society of Equity the free
use of the County Court House, seem
ing to think that they were the only
taypayers in Clackamas County. If
the County Court would give all the
organizations in Clackamas County
that were taxpayers the free use of
the Court House it would be only a
matter of a short time until the build
ing would be in use all the time by
the different organizations and the
County officials would have to find a
new location to transact County busi
ness in. , -
From what I heard at the meeting
and what I know of the business of
Clackamas County it seems to me that
the present County Court has used
as good judgment in the purchasing
and building bridges and roads, as the
officials of any other county In the
state. The county officials should not
be censured for what they have done
but rather praised for the reducing of
Clackamas County debt and the im
provements they have made through
out the entire County. The improve
ments in Clackamas County compare
well with-Uie improvements in any
county of the state, except Multno
mah County, which every one knows
has the smallest territory and is the
richest county in the state.
All we ought to ask of the County
Court or County Officials is that they
use their best business judgment in
the transaction of the County business
the same as we would do in transact
ing business for ourselves.
Respectfully,
J. W. ROOTS.
The tremendous amount of rush and hustle which is
necessary to keep abreast of the times these days has cre
ated a condition of nervousness which is affecting the ma
jority of people in the United States. That dqpvn-an-out
nervous conditions is nothing more nor less than stomach
trouble, now generally recognized as the great American
plague. . . .
A man or woman in this condition can get little hap
piness or success out of life. They feel tired all the time,
have no energy or ambition, and are gloomy, timid and
despondent. They do not sleep or eat well, or feel well,
and life instead of being a pleasure, is more of a burden.
Are you one of these half sick, listless, tired, nervous
people? If you are, you should know that these is a
medicine that has brought back the old energy and pleas
ure in 4ife to thousands who have tried it. The name of
it is
Cooper's New Discovery
It has been pronounced the greatest medicine ever sold to
the public. Cooper's New Discovery is sold by all drug
gists, who will refun dthe purchase price if it fails to give
you full and complete satisfaction. It will build you up
and bring back your strength and vitality. You will "be
astonished how quickly it acts. The first few doses will
convince you of its merits. Cooper's Nepv Discovery is
used the world over of r stomach trouble.

OREGON CITY. Ore.. April 10.
(Editor of the Morning Enterprise.)
We the undersigned are taxpay
ers and residents of Clackamas Coun
ty. Oregon, and many of us have lived
here over thirty years: Some of us
have not lived here in this county
that long, but we have all been in
terested in the development of Clack
amas County, in the building of its
bridges and in the construction of its
roads for the use of the people. We
have been acquainted with the actions
of the County Court in this county
during this term of years and we feel,
take it all in all, that the present
County Court has been a great cred
it to this county, and that on the
whole, it has made fewer mistakes
than many of the other courts that
have preceeded it, and that consider
ing the amount of work and the
amount of bridge building and con
struction, and the fact that the coun
ty is practically out of debt, today, we
cannot see why the people as a whole,
are not to be congratulated upon hav
ing such a county court, instead of
allowing, a newspaper editor, who has
been in the county a couple of years,
and who is evidently a personal ene
my Tf the County Court and Ed, Olds,
whd evidentlyns out of sorts, because
the County Judge did not give him the
job of building bridges, as they did
when Dimick and Lewelling were run
ning the County Court, to make the
people believe, in this county, that
they have not had fair and decent
treatment.
It is very easy to read between the
lines and see that the men who are
behind the meeting that -was held in
Oregon City, to denounce the Count?
Court, were personal enemies of the
County Court, and it is also very easy
to see that nearly every man who
was there, who took part against the
County Court had some personal grev
ience against the County Court, or
thought he had, because he hall not
got a road where he thought he ought
to have one, or had not been appoint
ed Road Supervisor, or did not get a
contract to build1 bridges or something
of Vjat kind. The -chairman of the
committee was an enemy of the" Court
and Robert Schuebel, who has been
writing letters to the Courier, was
prominent in the meeting, and Ed
Olds, who did not get the bridge work
that he wanted, was the principal or
ator of these people, who wanted to
denounce the County Court. It strikes
us, that the strongest evidence that
these men are prejudiced and have
some ax to grind, is the fact that a
man like Robert Schueoel and Brown,
who has been making these charges
against the County Court in order to

create a sensation, and in order" to get
even with the County Court because
he probably thinks the County Court
has not given him the County print
ing, or as much of it as he thinks he
ought to have, will assume to serve
upon a committee for the purpose of
investigating the County Court's acts,
and its methods of doing business,
shows to all reasonable minds that
these men are actuated by prejudioe
and malice and by some ulterior pur
pose and motive, other than giving the
County Court a square deal. It looks
very strange that men like Mr. Brown,
editor of the Oregon City Courier, and
Robert Schuebel and men of that class
who have been bitter in their denun
ciation of the County Court, would
have the cheek and be so indelicate
as to want to sit in a position that
makes them judge of acts' of individ
uals whom they have already formed
and expressed their opinion,and have
criticised and denounced in public and
private. This shows how contempt
ible human nature sometimes mani
fests itself, when partisian, bias- and
prejudice blinds men to all the deli
cate sense of justice and fairness.
Mr. E. C. Hackett, who has been
designated many times to expert the
county books, and sheriff's tax books.
is now, as we understand it, examin
ing all the books and records of Clack
amas County, by order of the County
Court, and his employment began long
before the meeting- was held on April
5, will be a sufficient guarantee to the
people of this county that a thorough
investigation will be made and we are
willing to go on record, and say that
we believe and hare faith in the hon
esty and integrity of our County Court
to such an extent that when this re
port is filed, it will vindicate our opin
ion that the Court has been honest
and straight-forward in all its deal
ings with tae people.
