The first year (1914) it went mainstream, the Socialist party had 27 more registered members than the Prohibition Party, who were some members of the Suffrage movement.[1] The Socialist party was similar to the Progressive Party in the county, as it tried from the outskirts of government to make change.[2] While Socialism failed its first year, it still received attention from the press who was aware of the October Revolution (1918) in Russia (Now the Soviet Union) by a similarly named government led by Vladimir Lenin. 1916 electionDuring the 1916 election, it was considered a failure by the Socialist Party of Columbia County as they only saw eight votes trickle in from Clatskanie, Oregon.
