ANOTHER VIEW OF IT " OREGON CITY, Aug. 1. 1913. (Ed itor, The Enterprise) Your com ments in a late editorial in regard to the attempt to enforce. the Sabbatar ian blue laws of a bigotted past ware very just and timely. -There are many laws still standing on the statute books of this and other states, be queathed by our Puritanical forefath ers, which are "more honored in the treach than in the observonce." The three clerical gentlemen who are seeking to resuscitate these obso lete laws are simply anachronistic. They ought to have lived a few hun dred years ago when "orthodoxy" had the power to enforce its dogmas by means of the faggot, te ax and the halter. They display exactly the same spirit today, but happily the civiliza tion of the twentieth century has de prived them of their power. Their names suggest their origin, probably from the Scotch, of whom it has been jocularly said that "they are famed for keeping the Sabbath and everything else." Less than five percent of the peo ple of Oregon City, all told, belong to the three churches of our esteemed monitors, and for such a "corporal's guard" to dictate to the overwhelming majority how they must keep Sunday, or any other day, is ludicrous in the extreme. To be consistent they should labor to put an embargo on Sunday papers, running of cars and automo biles, cooking Sunday dinners, etc., .and Bet the examples themselves. The crowds that swarm the banks of the Clackamas river, Canemah, Schnoerr's park and other resorts every fair Sun day morning, picnicing, dancing, frolicking and carousing ought to be arrested and compelled to go to church to sleep through dry sermons full of dreary platitudes and regale themselves with "psalms and hymns spiritual songs." To quote from a re cent writer: "No intelligent man, clergyman or otherwise, now accepts or preaches the sudden creation in one week of tho earth and man, and the animals upon it. Every human being knows, if he knows anything, that this earth is millions of years old, that the an imals lived here millions upon mil lions of years before man appeared, and that man himself has been on this planet for at least a quarter of a mil lion years, and probably longer." This planet on which we live is one of the smallest bodies - revolving around one of the smallest suns in our infinite universe, containing endless billions of such system larger than our own. For preachers, now; to try to make us believe that the Infinite ceaselessly and sleeplessly at work from all eternity took six days to make this mite of an earth less than a grain of sand by the seashore -rew tired and rested on the seventh day is simply to stultify themselves and their hearers. Professor Delitsch, in his lecture before the German Emperor, entitled "Babel and Bible," shows conclusive ly how such erroneous Babylonian ideas became accidentally incorporat ed in our Sacred Book. As all Bible students know, the so-called "Books of the Law" were entirely lost for many years during the Babylonian ex ile. After the return to the Holy Land, Ezra understook to restore the lost books from memory, from tradi tion, from detached fragments still in existence, and from the folk-lore cur rent among people largely influenced by their Babylonian environment dur ing seventy years. In what a patch work style the work was done a verv cursory examination of the Bible will abundantly show. As one example among dozens, compare Chaters XXXVI, XXXVTI, XXXVIII and XXXIX of Isaiah- with chapter XVIII of the Second Book of Kings, beginning at verse 13 to-verse 19, chapter XX. They will be found to agree "verbatim, et literatum." But this opens up a subject too ex tensive and far-reaching to be taken up in a short article. (Dr.) W. C. SCHULTZE. DENIAL IS MADE William Grissenthwaite telephones to The Enterprise that he is not and never has been secretary nor held of fice in the Beaver Creek local, Farm ers' Society of Equity. He says the recall matter has never been mention ed in "Equity meetings at Beaver Creek. DRILL INTO JAIL Men who have been at work upon the rewiring of the city hall say that it was ot seeking out old wires that took them two hours, as mentioned in The Enterprise Thursday. The parti cular "long job" to which reference was made consisted in boring four holes for wire-conduits through the brick, steel and timbered walls of the city jail. They feel that getting these holes through the escape-proof walls of the building in two hours was as gocd as establishing a record. NOTICE! Homesteads Worthwhile Am living on homestead in Cen tral Oregon. Been there three years.

You pay only If you file.) GOVERNOR WEST SENDSJOH HERE (Continued from Page 1.) as far as the district attorney tells me I can go." "Then I shall have to take action," shouted Mr. Schuebel, and he hurried out, presumably to get in communica tion with- Governor West. Later in the day, when questioned as to the interview. Mr. Schuebel said that when he had asked the sheriff wheth er or not he would stop the circus the sheriff had answered that he would not commit himself. W. E. Burlock, in advance of tho coming show, was in Oregon City Fri day afternoon, making further ar rangements for the performance. Tie announced that in order to prove to the public that the management was not mercenary, and that the were merely putting on their performance because they believed they had a leg al right so to do, that one-haif of the profits of the performance would be offered to Mayor Linn E. Tones, of Oregon City, to give to any charity which he might choose. "We offer this money just to show that we are no mercenary," said Sir. Burlock. "The mayor may direct that it be given to any charity which he sees fit. Or he may refuse tho offer. But the money will be offered, and will be cheerfully given if he will indi cate where he thinks it will accom plish the most good." WOMEN PROTEST We, the undersigned, Christian women, readers and patrons of the Morning Enterprise, do earnestly pro test against the influence it, as a pub lic educator, exerts in 'favor of the proposed circus on Sunday. Surely the crying need for better moral conditions, so well understood by thinking people points out the need of deeper Christian principles in the young, since this alone will insure bet ter morals.

The Yosemite National park was opened to automobilists today and the throwing open of the gates of this wonderland was the occasion of a big celebration The.f ight to have the barriers against the automobile raised was a long one and motorists met reversal after re- versal in treating with the department of the interior at Washington. While the Coultervilje road will be the first one that will be opened to motor traffic, it is most likely that if no serious mishaps occur the Big Oak Flat and Wawona roads will be open ed also in a season or two. - - The opening of the Yosemite valley to motor traffic will mean much to California, for thousands of motorists from all points of the United States will now tour to the Golden state for the pleasure of driving into this nat ural wonderland instead of taking va cations in other lands. Thsr fame of the Yosemite is worldwide, and the fact that a person can now comforta bly make the trip into the valley in motor car instead of being crammed in a jerky horsedrawn stage, is sure to increase the yearly list of visitors, who, while in the state, will also tour to other scenic districts.

VACATION DAYS (OREGON CITY PUBLICITY) The diversity of healthful recreation which may be enjoyed in the summer days by the fortunate dwellers with in the bounds of the Willamette Val ley, and very especially by the people of Clackamas County is truly surpris ing. Passing lightly over the delights of a trip to the coast less than a hun dred miles away, by rail to various points, and by auto or team to many others, we find very close at hand to us of Clackamas County, so many places to go and so many things to do that it is not easy to make a choice. All up and down the Oregon Coast there are resorts, some of which aro suited to the person who wishes to rough it," to put on his or her old clothes and hunt and fish and dig for clams and the delicious rock oystt-r, and to go for crabs, to climb tho cliffs, make trips out to sea for deep sea fishing, and up and down the co&t to the light-houses or to the life saving stations. Bathing and c?st.le builling on the sands or .just sitting on ome cliff and watching the waves dash themselves in fury upou its walls and breaking in great clouds of spray are pastimes enjoyed by young and old Those who wish something less strenuous but not less simple, will find it in tire larger play places,- where there are splendid hotels, golf and ten nis grounds, and mucn social life, but no where on the Oregon Coast do we find a Newport of the East, or an At lantic City. The Western people are aa yet too near to the beginning of things ever quite to forget that Na ture has more to offer than man can devise for his entertainment. But within easy reach are found play places where one may rest, and for get that one of the big beautiful cities of the world is not 'so very far away.

Several good ho tels are kept filled almost the year around by enthusiastic fishermen who come from all over the country to enjoy this healthful . and delightful sport. At Estacada there is a natural park on the Clackamas were there is located a first class hotel, where the fisherman is sure he'll find excellent fish. The Sandy and the Salmon and the Molalla and the Pudding Rivers are all places of resort, and separate ly or in groups along their banks are to be found camping parties. Wilhoit Springs affords a resting place for many tired city dwellers, and i one may take one's own camping out- j fit or find aceommodations.

Mount Hood, seventy miles- east of Oregon City, perpetually covered with snow, lures to her snowy stretches ev ery year a great concourse of visitors. Camps are established as soon as roads are passable, and for miles al most up to the snow line they may be found. A trip to the summit occupies several days, hunting and fishing are nowhere better, and huckleberrying is a fascinating source of amusement. Berries are almost as large as cher ries and are delicious. The trip to the mountain and back may be made in a day but so speedy a visit does not give time for the enjoyment of much besides tha trip. Boating canoe and launch and mot or boat and steamboat all find their place tinder this heading), offers a cool and glorious pastime. House boats line the shores of the river some floating palaces, others merely comfortable abiding places for a sum mer stay.

The Willamette Climate. (OREGON CITY' PUBLICITY) By James Barton Adams. Do I like the climate, stranger, in this valley? Well, i guess' That there ain't no proper answer to . your' question only "yes," An' it mightn't be a-stretfchin' o' the honest truth to say - That I worship it, an' tell it so a dozen times a day. Listen to my wife a-singing', voice as clear as any bell; See the spring that'3 in her action drawin' water' at the well; See them youngsters playin' yonder an' a-hollerin' in glee Then switch' round your eyes a trifle till you focus iliem on me. Jes' two. year ago tomorrer if my mem ory's got no flaw Since we clum into the wagon fur to leave ol' Arkansaw. Faces all about the color of the yal- lerest corn pones An' the ager havin' shaken all the flesh off of our bones. Sca'cely looked like human bein's, more like skeletons were we; Wife a-hackin' with consumption that was ketchin' hold o' her, An' the younguns both a-coughin', me a-worry in' till well. Got discouraged till I wasn't wuth a pinch o' salt in hell. Tuk a ranch here in this valley, an' we wondered if the same Mightn't some day he our graveyard as a windup of the game; Slep' with doors an' winders open for to let the climate in, c An' we soon obsarved that somethin' was a-paddin' out our skin.

An Ethical Power Now, gentlement, just for a moment, I would speak to you, not as an educationalist, but as a preacher of manhood and a lover of his kind. The question of the use of alchohol by the student when study ing, has carried me back to the thought The International Correspond ence Schools are not simply educational, they are ethical; they not only . make foremen and craftsmen and draftsmen, but they make . MEN in capital letters. For you can never awaken any ona to his commercial possibilities without stirring up all other possibilities so cial, patriotic, philanthropic, intellectual, moral. The moment you suc ceed breaking up one area of inertia you set vibration moving through every part of the being and all kinds of dormant and stagnant powers are set into healthy motion. When a man's mind gets engrossed with an intellectual occupation and he finds that he has a grip upon the laws and forces oi the universe, the saloon, the vulgar and degrading o..ow, the curb-stone loafing, and the hours of inane and ribald waste all seem to be unworthy of him and his self-respect clothes him in a protective armor which helps to keep his entire manhood inviolate. A great American preacher used to speak much about 'the expulsive pow er of a new affection," and, having as your life work the duty of both supplying and developing this "new affection" the love cf the best, by which the unworthy and base will be expelled, perhaps unconsciously but surely, from many and many a man.
