fixer and Johnson, the bulldozer, as
his trusted lieutenants, and fumed
and fretted around Chicago, seeking
the homage of his supporters and
confident that he would succeed.
But he couldn't win. And now he
seeks to disrupt the party. Why?
Had he been honest in declaring that
he wanted success for the people
above every other consideration, he
would have permitted his supporters
to unite on some compromise candi-
date--some known progressive who
would unquestionably have received
the nomination. His refusal to ac-
cede to this request shows that he
placed his personal ambition above
that of every other consideration and
or ruin with him.
Well, he's out of the party, if he
shall continue in his third party

the Progressive Party?" 1t isn't
that, for very large portion of the

1t is amusing to note the attitude
of some of the newspapers in Ore
gon, and elsewhere, since the Nation
al Republican convention. While
these publications. have usually been
found supporting the Republican
| ticket, the action of Roosevelt, at
Chicago, has evidently led them
astray or plunged them deep in
mire, and they don't know what
course to pursue. They appear to
be playing waiting game and have
suspended judgment, evidently, until
they can discover just how big a
movement the Rebellion of ROose-
welt will attract. In other words,
their editors have no convictions
themselves, but want to grab a seat
on the successful band wagon So
far as The Observer is concerned, it
knows where it stands. And it is
exactly the same place that it has oc-
cupied since the fight began. 1t is
a "standpat" newspaper and glores
in it. 1t is a "standpatter" because
1t bCIlCNCS dll Tie liIIle III 1L0puDll-
can principles without any ifs, ands
or butts about it. 1t has never, un-
der the present management, or pre-
viously, followed after false gods,
nor advocated "isms" of doubtful ex-
pediency simply because such a
course appeared popular. 1t advo-
Gated the denomination of President
Taft because it believed in him and
the Republican principles he repre-
sents, and we have never been
frightened by the prediction of dire
disaster awaiting the Republican
party as the result of his success at
the Chicago convention. But, if de-
feat must come, The Observer is !
willing to face it under the banner !
of President Taft and genuine Re-
rather than to win a
victory with a nondescript movement
headed by a mugwump candidate.

Editor Bell, of the Newberg En-

friendship for the trusts. or the con-
ditions now prevailing in this coun-
try which the president could elm
mate. did he so desire, is responsible
for the fact that wealthy California
companies have secured control of
the canning industry on the coast and
thus prevented the needed Newberg
institution from operating. Yet. it is
a fact that President Taft has done
much more in the trust wreckipg
line than did Roosevelt whom the
Enterprise editor champions so

Polk county is busy fixing up the
roads to the west of this place. Last
year the grade was cut down and
about a mile and a half of macadam
was built at a cost of $4,000. This
year nearly $4,000 will be spent
and ii is expected that about four
miles of permanent road will be built
The rock crusher is at work about
four miles out and the work of haul
ing and laying is being pushed as
rapidly as possible While the bur
den laid upon the taxpayers is heavy
vantages gained by having good
roads. For some years past this
stretch of road has been notoriously
bad in the winter time and travel at
certain seasons has been well nigh
impossible. This years work will al
most complete the part that lies in
Polk county but there is stretch Of
bad road beyond that i'm YamhW
county that ought to be built as fast
as possible. II costs to build good
roads but no tax that the farmer
pays can compare with the cost Of
moving crops over muddy roads when
the wear and tear Of teams. rigs and
wagons is considered and the loss Of
time and temper. There Is no better
way TO build up a community than
10 build up its roads.-Sheridan sun.

The Dallas Commercial club may
make mistakes. 1t undoubtedly has
done so. There is no body Of men
free from them occasionally. But
the men who comprise it's member
ship, and who are giving of their
time and their money to promote its
stability, are doing so because they
want to see the city grow and pros
per 1t is an unselfish work, a labor
that is bound to benefit every prop
erty owner and resident of the city.
If there is any institution that is en-
titled to the united assistance of
every individual it is live CONNER
ctal organization. If the methods
pursued by the club do not meet your
individual views, come out to the
meetings and start an agitation that
may eventually result in the adopt-
ion of your ideas. Plans are well
coined, and your suggestions will re-
ceive consideration. But, above all.
please remember, when you are ask
ed to subscribe to Commercial
club fund, that those who make the
request are not spending their time
to benefit themselves only as the pro
sress of the city brings prosperity
to every individual.
