Orogon City Man Sees Opportunity
in Influencing Public Opinion
in Home Field.
OREGON CITY, Or., Jan. 10. (Spe
cial.) K. E. Brodie, publisher of the
Morning Enterprise, announced today
I hat he would not be a candidate for
the republican nomination for secre
tary of state at the primary election
next May. . , ...
"My many rriends among the news
paper editors of the state," said Mr.
Brodie today, "were the' first to pro
pose my name in connection with the
office of secretary of state, and I
have already received, without my so
licitation, the indorsement and prom
ised support of more than 30 papers
throughout the state.
"This, of course, is extremely gratifying-
and flattering, and I am deeply
appreciative of the kind things that
have been said about me. This is the
first time that I have ever been even
a prospective candidate for public
office, though I have been honored by
election and appointment to non-salaried
positions In the state, and have
been for four years chairman of the
republican county central committee
for Clackamas county, which gave a
plurality of 1015 to the republican
nominee for president four years ago,
and a clear majority for Mr. Hughes
of 227 over all other candidates for
president.
"After long reflection, I cannot
separate myself from a profession
with which I have been connected
since boyhood. The publishing of a
newspaper, in my opinion, is of great
er dignity and service than holding a
public office. The true newspaper
man may be tempted by visions of
easier tasks and snorter hours, but if
he is true to the calling of his own
choosing, ho will stick and resist the
temptation to forsake a legitimate
business wherein he should be a lead
er in influencing public opinion with
in the radius of his newspaper's cir
culation. "The Enterprise was established 54
years ago. and has been published
continuously in ' Oregon City tsince
1866. Only two newspapers in Oregon
are older. My connection with the
Enterprise covers 15 years, the last
IS years as publisher. We have just
purchased and remodeled a building
and have the finest newspaper home
In the state, outside of Portland. The
Morning Enterprise is healthy, its
growth and progress have been
marked and I expect to continue as
its publisher and do my part in mak
ing Oregon a better state to live in
for many years to come."
SUGAR PROBE IS SLATED
GKAXD JURY TO IXVESTIGATE
PROFITEERING CHARGES.
l our Portland Grocers Are First to
Be Arrested in District Inves
tigation Due This "Week.
investigation of four local 'mer
chants arrested last week by the fed
eral authorities charged with prof
iteering in sugar will be taken up by
the federal grand jury this week.
The cases are expected to attract
more than usual interest because they
are the first of this nature in this
district.
The four men arrested were: A.
W. Anderson, Joe Letiff, Jacob Rossi
and E. F. Eckert. All were charged
with selling sugar at an excessive
price. Kossi and Eckert were ar
rested Friday, and the other two men
earlier in the week. All were re
leased on their own recognizance, to
appear before the federal grand jury
this week.
That the men were selling sugar
for 14 and 15 cents a pound, an ad
vance of from two to three cents a
pound over the legitimate price, was
the contention of United States Dis
trict Altorney Humphreys.
Figures from local clothing mer
chants relative to the volume of their
businesses, their overhead and op
erating expenses in detail have been
asked by Mr. Humphreys in an ef
fort to aid the federal fair price com
mittee here to bring about relief
from the high prices of shoes and
clothing.
A week ago questionnaires were
sent out by the commission to 42
clothing merchants.

SEDITION BILL IS PASSED
SENATE ACT PROVIDES FOR
SEVERE PEXALTIKS.
Offending Aliens Made Subject to
Deportation After Serving
Imprisonment Period.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 10. An anti
sedition bill prescribing severe penal
ties for acts or propaganda advocating
overthrow of the government by force
or violence, was passed by the senate
today without a record vote. The
measure now goes to the house.
Under an amendment to the bill
proposed by Senator Borah, repub
lican, Idaho, and accepted by the sen
ate, persons having radical literature
excluded from the mails may secure
a hearing before any federal court
and thus avoid the delay and expense
of bringing suit in "Washington
against the postmaster-general.
Senator Borah reiterated his objec
tion that the bill would give the post
office department press censorship
powers, but Senator Walsh, democrat,
'Montana, declared the measure would
affect only propaganda and activities
i in which use of violence to overthrow
the government was advocated.
Maximum penalties contained in the
bill are a fine of $5000 and five years'
imprisonment, applying to all acts
or circulating of literature in further
ance of forcible overthrow of the
government.
Mall Exclusion Provided.
The bill also bars from the mails
any matter advocating force or sab.
otage.
The principal attack on the bill was
aimed at the mail exclusion section.

which jOpponents declared would con
fer press censorship power on the
postmaster-general. Advocates of the
measure, however, denied that the bill
would limit constitutional rights of
free speech or free assemblage.
Under an amendment by Senator
Borah, republican, Idaho, accepted by
the senate, persons against whom this
clause is Invoked can appeal to fed
eral courts.
The bill prohibits persona from ad
vocating and from advising by speech,
writing or printing, the forcible
overthrow of the United States gov
ernment or by physical injury to per
son or property. It also would penal
ize attempts or acts hindering execu
tion of laws, or federal agents in their
duties.
Flag Displays Prohibited.
Another section prohibits display
of flags, hanners or emblems intended
to symbolize advocacy of force against
the government.
Aliens violating the act would be
subject to deportation and permanent
exclusion after serving the imprison
ment period.
The bill drawn by Senator Sterling,
republican. South Dakota, has been
heralded as a measure against "reds."
It goes to the house for consideration
in connection with sedition legislation
now being prepared by the house
judiciary committee, and in a meas
ure -is a substitute for legislation
recommended by Attorney-General
Palmer.
Senator Sterling told the senate
today that the bill did not penalize
peaceful agitation looking to changes
in the government. This was criti
cised by Senator McKellar, democrat,
Tennessee, as an alleged weakness.
The Tennessee senator declared the
bill would not reach dangerous an
archists and other radicals who
preach Insidious propaganda against
the government, suggesting violence,
while disclaiming advocacy of force.
He offered an amendment designed
to extend the bill's penalties to peace
ful efforts to overthrow the govern
ment, but it Was rejected summarily
without a record vote. The McKellar
amendment also proposed a penal
colony for "reds" at Guam, or some
other island under, government Jurisdiction.
The senate also rejected an amena
ment by Senator Pomerene, demo
crat, Ohio, proposing that , the bill
apply to attempts against 'state as
well as the federal government.
