CITY OFFICIAL
, PROHIBITION Now that the election is over and the votes of the peo
" IpR OREGON CITY pie have shown that they no longer believe in the
- scare crows that were raised by the saloons, it is pleasant to look back upon
- the campaign and notice the dignified way in which the fight- was conducted
by both sides.
Neither the wets nor the drys have engaged in personalities or undignified
conduct throughout the campaign and have based the battle that has been
waged upon the facts that have been at the command of their committees.
The people have had the chance to weigh those facts and have determined for
. themselves that the city would be better under prohibition than under the
saloon regime. They have determined to give the plan a try, at any rate,
and have figured that prohibition cannot hurt the city nearly as much as
the wets have believed that it would.
The campaign is a concrete example of the way that facts may be submit-
- ted to the people without all of the mud slinging and falsifying that usually
attends the political campaigns of this and other states. It is an indication
of the time and thought that the people in general give to the issues that af-
" fect them and that have to do with their common interests. It is, in fact, a
sign that the old time political methods of warfare are a thing of the past and
that no longer will the people be bull-dozed into voting or threatened into
supporting measures that their minds cannot approve or their judgment de
termine is right.
The people themselves have reached the point where they propose to do
. their own thinking for themselves and for their own interests. They have
-. done that in this campaign. They have seen the facts that have been pre
sented to them by the committees of the dry forces and have determined that
the saloons are an evil .that should be driven from the city and they wisely de
termined to take the step that would eliminate them from the machinery oi
the city.
The scare crow that was raised by the saloons that the city taxes would be
higher did not frighten away the voters at the polls. They believed that the
aloons raised that cry in their own interests and that it was merely used as a
political veil to cover the sins for which the saloons and the saloon element
have been responsible.
The Enterprise is delighted with the result of this election. It shows
that the saloons and the element that is tied to the saloons can no longer dom
inate the city and that the people are awake to their own interests in a way
that they have seldom shown before. The fact that the Enterprise has had
some part in the battle and has assisted in the fight that has been so success
fully carried through, is a matter of satisfaction. It is glad that it had a part
in the fight to make this city one of the dry towns of the state and believes
that it has fulfilled the functions of a newspaper when it calls the attention of
Jthe people to things that are against their interests and urges them to down
those things and take the stand that will lead to the city's betterment.
A newspaper is a public institution. Its voice shoud be on the side of the
people, continually pointing out those things that should be" done for civic
betterment and standing for all things that are for the interests of the peo
ple. Whenever there is'one thing that is a blight upon the city or county
- through which that paper circulates, it is the duty of that newspaper to point
out that evil to the people and to urge rem to correct it. Such a stand ths
Enterprise has taken. It is, consequently, pleased that the people have risen
and by their votes driven out the evil that this paper has seen and against
' which it has struck trip hammer blows for the past few weeks of the cam-
paign.
There is no danger that the city will be in such straights as the saloons
have led us to believe. There is not the slightest doubt but that this city, as
have all others that have voted as we have, will continue to progress. There
r 'is less doubt but that the city, now that the curse of the saloon nas been re
moved and the old man of the sea who has been hanging to our neck so long
has been unloosened, will take those steps of progress much more rapidly
- and that the growth of the city in the next few years will be more noticeable
: than it has been in the past.
O -
WILSON AND President Wilson has taken the step that Americans gen-
- HUERTA erally expected that he would be forced to take in spite of his
announced policy of non-intervention and his declaration that he would not
interefer in Mexican affairs, except to protect the lives ad property of Am
ericans. His order to the provisional president of Mexico amounts to a declaration
- of war, should those orders be' disobeyed. It means that this country has
"taken a decided stand in the Mexican situation,. one that foreign nations have
thought it should have taken some time ago.
- The Monroe doctrine has 'been the wall that has kept out the interference
of the foreign powers and has forced them to stand idly by while the United
States dilly-dallied along with the irresponsible governments that have been
dominating Mexican affairs for sometime in the past. Our policy of non-intervention
has made us put up. with many things from the government of
Mexico that other nations would have long ago demanded idemnities for and
vet we have stood for the insults and other indignities without doing anything

more violent to the revolutionrent country than to protest at the things that
have happened.
The country will. watch with interest the action that comes out of the
decisions of the powers that hi at" Washington to'tplerate no-more foolish
ness on the part of the Mexican president and to see that he gets out of office
in short order and turns over the government of his people to one who, is ap-,
proved by the people and; authorities of the United -States.
Too long already have 'we suffered from the Mexicans that no other -n'a-
tion would have endured ' . We have refused to intervene when our people
were shot in their foolish quarrels over the border. We have even seen them
take our citizens prisoners in their filthy jails arid have received reports of the
way that those people have met their deaths at the hands of the opposition
forces' that are continually at war in Mexico.
But the climax came when the present official head of the Mexican people
became the instigator of the plot to rid the country of Madero and turned
traitor to the chief tan whose cause he formerly warmly supported. Such.
man's principles are not what might be expected in the ruler of a sister-republic
and certainly they are not conrucive to th esafety of the Americans who
are living on the other side of the line. The president of the United States
has taken the proper stand when he demanded that Huerta resign at once and
get out. It is now a flat-footed proposition. Either Huerta must quit or
the United States must intervene.
The Mexican president must see the handwriting on the wall and know
now that his official days are numbered. It is certain that the presidetit
cannot even recede from th eposition he has assumed.
It is reassurring to the people of the United States to know that they have
in the chair of the chief executive a mariwho will give all of the time that
may be needed for the adjustment of difficulties by diplomatic relations, but
that when he sees they are no longer effective, takes the stand toward which
he has been steadily driven all of the tinje. It will be with interest that the
people of the county watch the outcome of this demand upon the part of one
president toward another.

Our Whole System
of Society Is
the Worst World
Has Ever Seen
By Dr. ALFRED RUSSEL
English Scientist
WE see a continuous advance of man's power to utilize the forces of
nature to an extent which surpasses everything he had been able
to do during all the preceding centuries of his recorded history.
We also see that the result of this vast economic revolution has been
ALMOST WHOLLY EVIL.
We see that this hundredfold increase of wealth, amply sufficient to
provide necessaries, comforts and all beneficial refinements and luxuries
for our whole population, has been DISTRIBUTED WITH SUCH
GROSS INJUSTICE that the actual condition of those who produce
all this wealth has become worse and worse, no efficient arrangements
having been made that from the overflowing abundance produced all
should receive the mere essentials of a healthy and happy existence.
We have seen huge cities grow up, everv one of them with their
OVERCROWDED, INSANITARY SLUMS where men, women and
children die prematurely as surely as though a body of secret poisoners
was constantly at work to destroy them.
And our administration of what we call "justice" (and of which we
are so proud because our judges cannot be bribed) is utterly UNJUST,
because it is BASED ON A SYSTEM OF MONEY FEES at every
step; because it is so cumbrous and full of technicalities as to need the
employment of attorneys and counsel at great cost, and because all petty
offenses are punishable bv fine or imprisonment, which MAKES POV
ERTY ITSELF A CRIME while it allows those with money to go
practically free.
TAKING ACCOUNT OF THESE VARIOUS GROUPS OF UNDOUBT
ED FACTS, MANY OF WHICH ARE SO GROSS, SO TERRIBLE, THAT
THEY CANNOT BE OVERSTATED, IT IS NOT TOO""MUCH TO SAY
THAT OUR WHOLE SYSTEM OF SOCIETY IS ROTTEN FROM TOP
TO BOTTOM AND THE SOCIAL ENVIRONMENT AS A WHOLE, IN
RELATION TO OUR POSSIBILITIES AND OUR CLAIMS, IS THE
WORST THAT THE WORLD HAS EVER SEEN.
INNOVATION IN CARBURETORS
Cadillac Introduces Electric Heating
Device
Some one has called the carburetor
the lungs of the automobile. Certain
ly there is no more vital mechanism
in a motor car than the small device
which breathes in the air and vapoP
ized gasoline and feeds it to the en
gine in properly mixed proportions.
Consequently, a car's efficiency de
pends very largely on the efficiency
of the carburetor.
WALLACE,
The Cadillac company has paid es
pecial attention to the subject of
scientific carburetion and the carbure
tors used on their motor cars are
made by the company according to
their own standards. On the 1914
Cadillac will be found a new feature
that adds materially to the efficiency
of the carburetor. This is an electri
cal heating device wihch vaporizes
the gasoline before the engine is
started. This makes it possible to'
start on lower grades of fuel than
heretofore and will prove a great boon
particularly in cold weather. Adv.
