CITY OFFICIAL
PRESIDENT WILSON and the governors of the several states have
issued proclamations in the past few weeks calling attention to the fact
that the United States has been blessed with unexampled prosperity
during the past year and that panics, pestilence, and contagion have been un
known. -
They have gone into the commercial growth that this nation has made
in the 12 months,, the advance of science and civilization in that time, and have
pointed out some of the many things for which the nation at large has reason
to be thankful for a year that has passed since last Thanksgiving. -
In the old Colonial Days when Thanksgiving was more religiously cele
brated than it is today, the people had a clear idea of some of the things from
Vi'hich they had been delivered through the acts of Providence that guided
the young Republic from the time that its first settlers set foot upon the "stern
and rock bound coast" until it had freed itself from the strangle hold of the
parent country and had established itself as an independent nation upon the
eastern coast of an unexplored continent. In the past year, the United States
has passed through criseses, each important in itself but bringing with it no
impending disaster and we have failed to fully appreciate the prosperity with
which the United States hasbeen more than abundantly blessed in that time.
It is interesting to note the progress that we have made in one year.
, Though we have had difficulties innumerable with the sister republic on our
southern border and though there have been numerous instances when our
representatives have clashed with the powers that control Mexico, we have
averted the possibilities of war that have so many times threatened and have
passed through each of these clear from the dangers which they would natur-

The United States has prospered
side world. It has taken several new and important steps in legislation. . It
lias hewn out paths of its own in commercial and other lines. Though there
remain many things yet to be done, the progress that we have made in the
past 12 months is enough to cause the people of the country to join in Thanks
giving services to that Providence that
since its foundation and the establishment
coast.
ALEM HAS STARTED a coffee-house scheme that has been found
workable in other cities where men "congregate in large numbers and
where they can talk, read, and play games free from sectarian influences
of all sorts. The plan has worked in
a thorough trial.
The coffee house includes all of the advantages that are usually giyen
by the best Y. M. C. A. organizations. It provides a place for men to gather,
read, and play such games as they desire nd ,is free from certain restrictions
vith which the association surrounds its members. ' .
Absolute freedom in the rooms of Mie organization is given to them.
They may gather there, read and smoke. They may. there await opportuni
ties for work. Odd jobs of all sorts come through the channels that such an
institution offers and the men are sent out through the efforts of a manager
who spends all of his time and devotes his attention to the affairs of the organ
ization. The institution is non sectarian. It has no church affiliations. It plans
work for the men who use its rooms and offers them all of the advantages
that a . M. C. A. can give. Such an organization would be a boon to
Oregon City where the associational scheme has been tried and failed and
would, possibly, be the solution to the problems that confront the city in pro
viding some placeof amusement and recreation for the young men who now
loaf around the streets before saloons and cigar stores because they have noth
ing more interesting to do. ' ' '
Certainly some such proposition should be tried. There are crowds of
young men on the streets of the city every dy who are either without work
or have no definite plans of recreation for their leisure hours.' With the
saloons driven from the city, the men who spend a large proportion of their
time arid money at' the bars should be provided with some form of legitimate
amusement and should have a place where they could spend their leisure
time. It is- necessary that some scheme of the kind be started here at once
and the coffee house offers one way out of the dilema." Some of the most
prominent men "in the affairs of the cities and states where such institutions
have been established are identified with their workings and are either officers
or members of the boards of directors of the organizations.

FORUM OF THE PEOPLE
Dr. Schultze Is Answered.
GLADSTONE, OREGON, Nov. 26.
(Editor of the Enterprise.) I must
beg pardon of my friend, the good Dr.
Schultze, for my delayed answer. The
Enterprise containing his article fail
ed to appear in the Gladstone office.
On Saturday on my way to the south
ern end of the county I called at the
Enterprise office for a copy of this
paper and here is to you my old
friend. Un October 5, 1913, you had an ar
ticle in the Enterprise making a num
ber of charges against me in relation
to the health officer's removal and the
appointment of the new man. That
article of October 5th was answered
in the Enterprise in less than a week,
now after waiting more than a month
you come sneaking in and begin your
article with the assumption -that be
cause these things were published in
the Courier you did not read them
and was not aware of their existence
until a "friend" called your attention
to them. Now Doctor this is certainly
refreshing. Within one week of your
article of October 5th my answer ap
peared in the same paper the Enter
prise. Please get a copy of that pa
per and read it. Now in this your lat
est production you say: "The matter
is of no personal interest - to myself
whatever." Will you tell me please
why you made so many false state
ments in your former articles coupled
with the positive assertion that "you
wanted to place the facts squarely be
fore the people?" And that you "de
fended yourj brother physicians"?
Your statements are the ehSdren of
your brain. Will you now shamefully
desert them? It was only a " few
weeks ago when you told us to vote
tor the sterilization, act, because, as
you stated "it would not be right to let
certain people bring children into the
world to become a burden Jo the rest
of humanity." And now you who ap
peared on the scene announcing your
self as the defender of your brother
physiciang, you who declared you
wanted to "place' the facts squarely
before the people," you who made as
sertions which you said were "the
facts", are you going to turn tail and
quit? VAre you going to desert the
Tlu6A COOLO
'
financially in competition with the out
has guided the American republic
of the 13 colonies on the American
O
all of the cities where it has been given
children of your own brain"? Did you
bring THESE children (your state
ments) into the world and then let
them become a burden to Dr. Norris?
Is he willing to adopt your produc
tions? I placed a complaint against
Dr. Norris last winter, put it in the
hands of the proper authorities, (Mr:
Stipp said it was the proper authori
ties.) THE STATE BOARD OF
HEALTH. Dr. Norris was notified and
had me to face for months as you Dr.
Schultze know very well. Therefore
your statement that I "shrink from
meeting Dr. Norris" is just as false as
those precteding.
Dr. Norris was present at his in
vestigation and had an attorney as you
also knew. We were facing each oth
er all day in the court room and he
had a chance to prove the things you
allege. All the testimony is on hand
Dr. Schultze and will be placed at the
disposal of the people when we meet.
This testimony was taken down by the
stenographer who came with Dr.
White. Copies were secured by the
editor of the Courier and Prof. Webb.
In the presence of witnesses a num
ber of copies 'were made and all my
statements in the papers were from
these records. After this evidence
taken by the committee from the State
Board was placed before the State
Board at its regular meeting March
27 and 28, 1913, their findings were
communicated to Dr. Norris.
Dr.- Norris answered on April 1 as
follows:
"Dr. Calvin S. White:
"My resignation as health officer of
Clackamas County will be handed to
the County Judge as demanded by the
State oBard,.of Health.
"J. W. NORRIS, M. D."
Dr. Norris had a chance to"meet ev
ery charge, and if he will come out to
our meeting to present a few trutns
he will be given an opportunity.
Dr. Milliken seems to be right after
all in his estimate of you when he
said: "It was conscience and bile"
made you act as you did. You admit
the conscience part by saying con
science makes cowards of us all:" You
have placed me under obligation for
the aptness in placing yttur quotations.
On October 5th, after Jaboring hard
to bring. fortht those children ot your
brain (your statements) you say
"Fools run in..wtiere. angels fearto
tread." No one has 'been found firho
dares to take issue with - you in .the

characterization of yourself In . that
Quotation, for you have abundantly
proven it in your false statements. You
are also proving your other statements
your article of October 5, THAT YOU
"incontinently retreat precipitately"
when you refuse to meet your own
statements in public after declaring
that .youwanted "to present the facts
squarely before the people." Please
do not forsake your offspring so in
gloriously. If you refuse to meet your state
ments there will be but ont reason, the
one you give in your last article "Con
science makes cowards of us all."
Now Doctor, I fully expect to meet you
and make arrangements for that meet
ing, so get ready to own your children
you brought into the world, it would
be wrong to desert them or to com
pel somebody else to take care of
them. Do not fail to bring Dr. Nor
ris with you.
HENRY SPIESS.
OREGON CITY, Ore., Nov. 26 (Ed
itor of- The Enterprise) In your
statements of the amendments to be
voted upon next Monday that the
Englebrecht tract is to be purchased
with the f2500, the appropriation is
to be used to purchase a tract of land
for the use of the public but not to
be confined to any certain tract. I
was a member of the committee ap
pointed to look for a tract and this
Englebrecht property seems to be the
best, proposition in the city.
It will be in the railroad center and
the railroad will probably help in the
mprovement of the grounds. This
property, if purchased by the city,
will always be worth the money paid
for it and it is time that the city
should own some public grounds. Van
couver recently purchased a tract for
athletic grounds and have it in fine
shape for the public schools. Now,
if we wait a few years, we will have
to pay about three times the price we
will pay for it at this time, and I be
lieve it well for every voter in this
town to carefully consider this ap
propriation. Portland is having all
kinds of trouble to get public grounds
and we wil be in the same fix if we
do not secure public grounds when
we have an opportunity.

SALTS IF KIDNEYS
OR BLADDER BOTHER
Harmless to flash Sidneys and nsntral
ize irritating acids Splendid
for system.
Kidney and Bladder weakness result
from uric acid, says a noted authority.
The kidneys filter this acid from the
blood and pass it on to the bladder, where
it often remains to irritate and. inflame,
causing a burning, scalding sensation, or
setting up an irritation at the neck of
the bladder, obliging you tp seek relief
two or three times during the night.
The suf(erer is in constant dread, the
water passes sometimes with a scalding
sensation and is very profuse; again,
there is difficulty in avoiding it. -
Bladder weakness, most folks call it,
because they can't control urination.
While it is extremely annoying and some
times. Tery painful, this is really one of
the most simple ailments to overcome.
Get about four ounces of Jad Salts
from your pharmacist and take a table
spoonful . in a glass of water before
breakfast, continue this for two or three
days. This will neutralize the acids in
the urine so it no longer is a source of
irritation to the bladder and urinary or
gans which then act normally again.
. Jad Salts- is inexpensive, harmless,
and is made from the acid of grapes and
lemon juice, combined with lithia, and
is used by thousands of folks who are
subject to urinary disorders caused by
uric acid irritation. Jad Salts is splen
did for kidneys and causes no bad
effects whatever. "
Here yon have a pleasant, effervescent
lithia-water drink, which quickly relieve
bladder trouble. , -. '

ARE WE WORSE THAN ADDERS?
There is a legend to the effect that
the adder, a snake, swallows its young
when they are in danger and disgorges
them when the peril is past. t
We in America, human beings, swal
low our young. But we do it for per
sonal profit, not to protect them.
We swallow them in our mills and
factories. Like the giant in the an
cient nursery rimes, we "grind their
bones to make us bread."
Read the reports of the state com
missions which have been investigat
ing this matter of child labor. Learn
how little children have been forced
to work long hours.
They are swallowed alive, not by
adders, but by those who should pro
tect them.
There is an economic reason as well
as a sentimental one for the protests
that are going up all over the land
against the practices of the exploiters
of children. It pays to let the children
grow up, that they may become more
efficient and stronger workers in their
later years. The other course not only
robs them of their birthright of child
hood, but it also depletes' the supply
of adult workers.
It swallows the young, but it does
not disgorge them again. They remain
swallowed.
The exploiting of child labor is a
blot' on civilization. Not long ago a
visitor to America from a "heathen"
country was asked what his people did
to protect the children.
"Protect the children," he echoed, in,
amazement !iin my country children
need no protection. Every one is good
to them."
How about here?
It is only in highly civilized, ad-
vanced nations that child labor laws
are needed. In the others the children
are the universal care.
True, in many of the savage coun
tries the men do not work, but cast
the burden of providing food and cloth
ing on the women of the families. But
"that Is another question.
In the ancient days, the good book
tells us, all sorts of dire penalties
were threatened against nations which
sacrificed their children to Moloch and
made them "pass through the fire."
In compelling" children of eight or
ten or even younger to work for their
livelihoods, taking away from them
the childhood which is in many re
spects the most precious portion of our
lives, are we Americans not making
children "pass through the fire?"
