Let Your Eyes
Save Your Legs
Remember the man who sold his
farm and went to Alaska to dig
gold? After he had left, a chap
who kept his eyes open found a
fabulously rich oil well on the old
farm.
How often have you travelled a
long distance to get some particu
lar article, to find later you could
have bought it around the corner
for less money.
It pays to know. Your eyes
were given you to guide the brain.
" The world's prizes go to people
who see things.
. Let your eyes search the adver
tising column's in today's ENTER
PRISE for a moment, and see how
well your wants have been antici
pated. You were puzzled about a menu
for dinner here's news of the lat
est market delicacies.
You were thinking about out
fitting the children here's infor
. mation that saves you time and
money.
Right down the list of human
wants come the advertisements in
. today's ENTERPRISE giving an

VOYACE TO PRISON
JERSEY CITY, N. J., Aug. 12 Port
er Charlton, charged with the murder
of his wife three years ago at Lake
Como, Italy, is expected to end his
long stay in the Hudson 'county jail
here tonight. Unless there is a change
in plan he will sail tomorrow for Italy
to stand trial for the crime of which
he is accused. The famous prisoner
will make the trip in company with
two police officers sent out by the
Italian government. Whether his fath
er, Paul Charlton, formerly United
States judges in Porto Rico, is to sail
on the same steamer has not been
made known, hoever, that Judge Charl
ton intends 'to be on hand when his
son's trial beings.
During his stay of more than taree
years in the Hudson county jail young
Charlton has won the friendship of all
of the jail officials and be undoubted
ly will have their best wishes when
he departs for his trial on the other
side. During the long period of his
confinement he has. been granted ev
ery privilege that the regulations
would allow. Most of his time has
been spent in reading newspapers and
novels and smoking cigarettes. Dur
ing the past year he has done much
writing. He has been visited regular
ly by his father, brother and other
members of his family. Despite his
long time in prison, Charlton is in
good health and is said to wqjgb. con
siderably more than when he was ar
rested on June 22, 1910, as he stepped
asore from the North German Lloyd
liner Princess Irene.

FORUM 0FTHE PEOPLE
ESTACADA BRIDGE AGAIN
Editor, Tie Enterprise; I see a no
tice in The Courier stating that the
Estacada bridge across the Clack
amas river is all right, and that The
Enterprise sometime ago published an
article about it which The Courier
says is untrue. I want to say, in fa
vor of The Enterprise, that its state
ments were true. Mr. Hayden, Mr.
Hayner and I tightened up the bolts
and rods in the bridge, and found one
bolt only part way through the chord.
I took out the rod and put in a new
one instead. I also found some truss
braces short. I had to put wedges in
to tighten tnem.
I know what good framing on bridge
work is, and I count this framing a
poor job. I do not blame the county
officers for the poor work done on
the bridge, as their business is to at
tend to county affairs as best they
can. --

Springwater, Oregon.
More on That "Promise"
MOLALLA, Ore., Aug. 11th. (Edi
tor, The Enterprise) In The Courier
of last week its is stated that if the
county court wins in' the recall fight,
Molalla precinct is to "come in for
favors, a new bridge across the Mo
lalla near Schafer's mill, at a cost of
ten thousand dollars,"- insinuating that
this bridge has been promised as a
bribe to this district to support the
present court.
TIi people wV:o have been most ac
tive in urging the necessity of the
bridge resent this. The facts are that
a bridge at this point had been urged
long before the present court were
elected.
TT;e whole community both of the
Colfon and Molalla sections have
orr-ed the builiing of this bridge. Cit
izens have subscribed over a thous
and dollars to gravel and open roads
to the bridge if built. The court has
made no promises on condition of sup
port or in any way has used this as a
leverage to get support.
Anyone wishing any further infor
mation in regard to this matter, I
would gladly refer them to L. W. Rob
bins, J. H. Vernoon or Albert Eagle,
each of whom have been very active
in urging the immediate need of this
bridge. There is no evidence that if
the bridge is built it will cost ten
thousand dollars.
Fraternally yours,

JURIST IS PRAISED
FOR FEARLESS ACT
Editor, The Enterprise: An article
in the local press by a reputable mem
ber of the bar of this city reflecting
upon the integrity of Judge J. A. Ea
kin should not be allowed to pass un
challenged. The undersigned has had a few
equity cases before Judke Eakin since
lie has been sitting upon the circuit
bench of this district and perhaps has
had quite as good an opportunity to
take notice and make estimates of
the character and attainments of
Judge Eakin, and while differing wide
ly in politics, it affords me pleasure
to commend Judge Eakin as an able,
impartial sincere and pains-taking
judge a gentleman of high breeding
and culture, far and away above the
school of olitics as taught by the writ
er of that unjust, if not scurrilous
criticism.
It is doubtful whether there- is any
Circuit Judge of the state who has
greater respect from the members of
the law, and such a woman attack
proves there is too much license of
free speech.
As a matter of law, a writ of in
junction is very often applied to pre
vent an unwarranted criminal prosecu
tion where property rights are involv
ed or legitimate business is threatened
to be interferred with by police
authorities. This jurisdiction is very
often exercised and in this particular
case the better opnion is that Judge
Eakin was right in his decision, but
whether he was right or wrong in
such decision, it illy becomes a de
votee of advanced thought and pro
gressive views to so far forget himself
in the matter of common propriety as
to jump on an upright and righteous
judge of a court of general jurisdic
tion. It might not be altogether to
exercise the supreme.

advised charges.

PORTLAND, Or., Aug.: 12. The
Portland Woman's Christian Temper
ance union is up in arms against the
Portola poster that is being sent
broadcast over the country to adver
tise the festival to be held in San
Francisco in October. Mrs. Ada Wal
lace Unruh, state president of the or
ganization, has sent to Senator Lane
a protest against objectionable post
er. She contends that the picture de
picting a woman's form, with the legs
partially bare and the woman in danc
ing pose,' is an insult to Oregon wo
manhood and should nat be allowed to
represent' any festivity given on the
Pacific coast.
"The East thinks we of the West
are wild and wooly enough," said Mrs.
Unruh yesterday. "We do not need
this 'additional impression to be giv
en forth."

Nearly three hundred warriors, braves
and chiefs were in attendance here to

GOSPEL MEETINGS SOON
Gospel tablernacle meetings will

singers, and the meetings will be inter
denominational. ATHENIAN DEMOCRACY.
Our form of government does
not enter into rivalry with the
institutions of others. We do not
copy our neighbors, but are an
example to them.
It is true that we are called
a democracy, for the administra
tion is in the hands of the many
and not of the few. But, while
the law secures equal justice to
all alike in their private disputes,
the claim of excellence is also
recognized, and when a citizen
is in any way distinguished he is
preferred to the public service,
not as a matter of privilege, but '
as the reward of merit. Neither
is poverty a bar, but a man may
benefit his country whatever be
the obscurity of his condition.
