THE ENTERPRISE, I'l'llUSllKD EVERY THURSDAY AT OREGON CITY, OR, BY E. M. Rands, Ed. and Prop. THURSDAY, JAN. 23, liMO. Jons L, Scluvan wauU 120,000 to meet Pet Jack ion, II comet high, but prise finhtina ia on of the nceessitie. How the democrats will howl now. President Harrison loaned $25W on a piece of Taeoma proper ty the other day. A numdkh of failures 01 late in Taconia indicate Umt the city of deitiny hae boen overreaching it aelf, and that a reaction has set in. Bric auccwded in buying his seat to the U. 8. senate in Ohio. He sueeced coal oil Paine, whose seat was similarly obtained six years ago. Tua late receiver oftheAritona land office, one of Cleveland's ap pointees, by the way, is an embei tier from the government to the amount of 12700, and from settlers amounts aggregating 119000. What next? Hero is the New York World censuring lUaine for being too slow in his diplomatic proceedings. Will it compare this style of editorials with its pub lished pre-election fears? Sksatoh Skaboro, of Washing ton, in advocating a fishing bill aim ilar to the one vetoed by Govemor- Pcnnoyer last winter, said he be lieved it a good law, and that Ore gon would pass one like it next win ter, and he also believed that Gov rnor Pennoyer would not be hero t veto it. Tni rentlemen who were here yesterday desiring to start a can nerv are practical cannery men who propose giving their individ ual supervision of the work. If ar rangements are made this week they will at once go to San Fran cisco and order the latest im proved machinery, with the intention of of beginning canning by April first 1 hey win pay out on an average of $200 per day to help. Thi assertion of Mr. Cleveland in his Boston speech that our elections at this period are distinguished for corruption was entirely without justification. They are pure and honest, and the votes counted record the actual political convictions of the citizens. The cry that the last election for president was carried by bribery was the merest rubbish. Mr. Harrison was elected because the people preferred him to Mr Cleveland. New York Sun. Thi Oregonuk complains bitter ly because the San Francisco insur ance union has raised the rates in Portland. This same union has repeatedly raise! the rates here till they are now beyond all reason This union is a vampire worse than the sugar or coal oil trust, and it is high time that steps be taken to shake it off. Less than (2000 has been paid out for losses in this city in the past ten years, yet no op portunity has been let slip to in crease the rate, till in some ratings it is over six per cent. At the bottom of the 4th, 5th and Cth columns of this page will be found a remonstrance which we send in this form to enable our readers to cut it out and attach to apiece of paper when it will be ready to circulate. We trust that many of our readers will promptly take this manner of indicating their opposition to the railway franchise scheme. It is of ths utmost im portance that prompt action be taken as the court meets February 5th. Send these remonstrances back to The Extihpriae and they will be placed before the court. The Oregonian is justly indig nant over an attempt to secure blanket franchise to all the streets in Portland. The case has a par allel in this county in the East Port land and Barlow railroad schem crs and The Oregonian' strictures iddIv with equal force here. It says: ' "It is undoubtedly a job of the first maenitude. Apparently the idea is to eot hold of this big sack fall of franchises, and then dis tv.aa nfthrim in lob lots. On SDflCU fation. No countenance ought to be riven to such a scheme. It is enough to allow the simple use of a street or streets, when a company actually proposes to build a line of railway, and too mucn, wnen in city is to got nothing for it. But it is simply an outrageous abuse to nut into the hands of specula tors a franchise that blankets the whnln citv. Why should any com pany bo endowed with these grants For the purnose of speculation Thor will Im close scrutiny, and nrnrtor criticism of the votes of members of the common council on this colossal job." Tub Amkuicam G hook a states (hat the cost of food list decreased, so that the dollar of the workingnmn has bought him more food than In the previous year, and gives tables to show that not only is this so, but that the same ia true of every year for a long time, This, with the fig ures of th commissioner of labor, which showed that in a majority of trades the American workingmen earned more money last year than in the previous, indicate that the condition of the worklngmen of to day is not as deplorable as sum would pictur it. Ti Yaquina IUi'IBI-ican's New Year's edition was but half it usual siie, and her is its reason: "To be consistent with the eternal fit nets of things, we have decided on reform at the beginning of the new vear, and as a starter wo hava formed the siie of the Republican to correspond with our advertising pa tronage. When in course of human events it becomes necessary for us to institute another change by en Urging or climbing the golden stair of country newspaperdom we will meet such skingle without flinch or (link. Just now it matters little to us which end of th horn comes first. We can makethetack either way without missing stays or running on shoals. This, our New Year's issue, presents just as elo quent a commentary upon thebusi ness enterprise, prosjHtrity and prog ress of Yaquina Bay as does the New Year' issue of the Oregor.ian or the ban r rancisco examiner 01 their respective cities. Yaquina Bay is all right or will be a hundred years hence when new generations aro born." The jieople of Oregon City ar not opioiod to motor lines, one or a uiuen, either to Cortland or any other point. If necessary the citi zens of this place would pay f .V),- 000 to secure a good motor line to Portland, But they are almost to a man opposed to granting a 50 year's exclusive franchine to a paper company or any other company granting public property for corpo rate use. The petitioners for this franchise pretend that they are actuated by a desire to benefit the public. Let the public consider what is asked before accepting their statement as conclusive and lending aid to their schemes. The truth is they ask everything and oiler nothing in return, to ac quire property in any way without returning value received is robbery, and none the less so that it appears in the guise of a legal grant. The state con stitution specificially forbids any county from lending its aid to cor porations. How much less should the court donate public property that cost many thousand dollars to the exclusive use of an ameteur corporation. Prtlan4 aid Ores; City. Vindicator It is hardly possible for another ysr to psss be for s motor railway line will have been built and completed to Oregon City from East Portland 011 tha cast bank of lbs Willametts river. Th dis tance is something lik twelt miles, and th proposed line of road will run through s healthy, thrifty and thickly populated country th entire distance. Last summer son effort was mad by interested parties at Milwauki to secure the right of way along th tin and, as we understand, only on or two persons owning property were found who object ed to giving the right of way freely. Iu most cases the right of way was not of fered without coat, but a willingness was shown toward taking stock in the com pany and assisting it along. Tha city council ol this city granted the right to certain parlies last summer tn lay rail way tracks on certain streets, but fur ther than this nothing bad been done by th parries who had th matter In charge. Within th past few days l. P. Thompson, Frank Deekuin, C. Kock well and II. C. titration have incorporat ed th Portland 6 Oregon City Railway Company, with a capital of t200,0(X) di vided Into 2000 shares of th par value of $100 each. The obect of thi incorpora tion is to construct a railroad, telegraph and telephone line from Kant Portland by th way of Sell wood and Milwauki to Oregon City. With such men as th above named incorporators, there is no question but th road will be built, and as they mean business, no delay will be made In completing th line when one commenced. As soon ss the necessary franchises can be secured from the coun cils of Fast Portland, Hellwood and Ore gon City, and right of way obtained, work w ill b commenced on construction. From tho fact that Frank Jekum is a heavy huldorof stock in th Portland A Vancouver Hallway line, it Is mora prob able that the line to Oregon City will in fact be sn extension of the Vancouver road, only under another nam. How evur, b that a It mav, it amounts t but little so long as th Oiegon City road Is built. As heretofore suggested, Th Vindica tor still adheros to the belief that those who put their money Into this line of road will find It to prove a profitable In vestment. And to the property owner along the line It will prove a benefit, In th way of increased prices of real estate, of which the most sanguine can not now ooBHlblv anticipate. For this reason no iiosslble hindrance should be thrown in the way of the early comple tion of the road. On account of the building of this roMd, there will be a lively Increase In price of property all along the line. It will be th means of building tip Hell wood and Milwauki to Important sub- urlmu towns, tn fact, In the course ol a tew years '.hem wilt huild up an al most eiiiitltitious town Hh entire length ot (lie road. Tluw whti re foitmiate noit.h In own hind nlnuy, ih proposed line will Iiavo leen largely lienelltlod, financially, by the construction 0! lli road. MOMMA.

Aneichanga published the following story on th Highlander which Is good uf itself, but as told In Kalem s few years ago at public meeting It ram in pal. It o happened that noted speaker from abroad was to address th people of Halein. The legislature being in ses sion, and J. W. Walls a momber of that body, it we thought a happy hit to In vite the honorable snnstor from Yamhill to Introduce the eminent Seaker of the evening. Walls, nothing loath, ac cepted the Invitation and ap)earod on th stag In due tun, lie arose to in troduce th apeuker uf the evening, who Uo arose to he introduced, but tha pre lude to the introduction proved rather long, in fact it was almoit an hour be fore Mr. Watle was through end turned to present lh lecturer to the audience. Tlii done, J. W . suited Ills hut and has tened from the room. The lecturer said that ha was very forcibly reminded of a little story that he once hoard. He then told our exchanuo's story, as follows: Itev. Mr. MacAlliHtor, of a certain High land parish recently begun hi discourse thus: 'My brethren, you will And th subject of till discourse In the I Kplstle General uf tha Apoatlt Peter, chapter 6 : 8, In the words, "The devil he gor tli about as a roaring lion seeking whom he may devour." My friends with your leave, we will divide the subject Into four heads; First, w shall endeavor to as certain who the devil he was? Second, we shall enquire Into his geographical position, vlx., where the devil be was? Third, and this of a general character, who the devil he was seeking? Fourth ly, and lastly, we wlmll endeavor to solve a question which has never been solved yet, what the devil he was rust ing about I'" Having told this he sat down.
