MAN mm BY LI WIRE WHITE ATTCKS UNION MEN (Continued from Front Page) communication follows : To the editer: In regard to the publicity circular sent out by the Central Labor Couucil I cannot sup press the desire to thnnk you for in creasing the circulation of the same, thus rcatly aiding us in carrying out that which our limited finances would ot afford as the 500 copies (the number we had printed) could not reach as many readers as should Know nuout tnese mings. ror we deny Hint it is or can be made to work u tletrimenj on any truly patrio tic citizen, or one who does not n'.k for special privileges to fleece the un sophisticated prospective settler. Moral Coivimls.. You say that there are no beggars in Medford except hoboes and brake beam tourists. I would like to ask what stands between any wage earn er nnd this class except his job? And jobs nro becoming more nnd more scarce. So watch out ! You may be the next to take an excursion astride n box-car. The statement that most of the union men express themselves as being disgusted with the move ment can only be attributed to the deplorable fact that there are some moral cowards in all classes of so ciety. For these same men voted in favor of the circular excepting n very smnll minority in some of the locals. Hut when it came to the C. L. C. there was not ono dissenting vote, proving that a majority of all locals affiliated were in favor of it, and thus instructed their delegates to vote. Tho Typographical union, how ever, is not now affiliated, not be cause they were dissatisfied with that body but because their financial htatiiB would not permit tho payment of their )er capita tux, probably caused by the scanty remuneration they receive for their work. The original article drafted by me was re vised, not to modify it and make it less strong in its stutement, but to make it wore so. So you see that tho purported allegation by Parker that it was the work of one or two sore heads is somewhat erroneous. Also the statement that I was an I. W. W. organizer is false. Sot Malicious. You seem to be lubortng under a false impression. In believing that it was aimed maliciously nt anyone in particular. The labor organizations have ask ed in vain that the local papers ad here more nearly to the truth when boosting this valley, which under ordinary conditions is the best place I ever lived in, uud if as much energy were expended toward making it it place where all who produce them might enjoy the good things of life it would bo ti paradise. We havo been asked why wo did not confer with the Commercial club in regard to this publicity movement. Ouo very good reason is because they nnvcr ask our opinion on any matter no matter how vitally it con, cerns us and if the wholo country s going to be run in tho interests of one class alone we workers will move on and without request. We do not believe f judging by the Inm.l! I il. J IV .1 ti lui'iiuuii in wjo bieucuj uiai it was our pest which was befouled. I would advise Mr. Colvig to fill out an appli cation blank for memhership in the I. W. V for his proclivities seem to bo in that direction. Judging by his ndvioo as to what course to pursue. Hut we nil know just what particular tact he has which holds him his job. Prominent business men in Mod ford Jiavo made statements to tho writer which would make any in tho eirciilnr hppeur (nine in comparison. Tho greatest howl seems to arise bo eiuiso wo do pot continue to keep quiet and let the grafters graft. To them j, fc tt matter of a i'cw dollars moro pr less but to us it is a matter of bread and butter. Which is tho more tjerioiisf Which (in your osti njatlon) should ta,jr1ceodoncofv Tho itykt of the producer to suite condi- Jack Hammond, an employe of tho Rogue River lClectrlc company, was burned Sunday by coming in contact with a live wire. Hammond, with other workmen, was engaged In overhauling the elec tric line near the Bedford Ico and Storage plant, on Thirteenth street, when the accident occurred. Tho wires were nil supposed to be dead, but It appears that one of them had not been killed and when Hammond picked It up so strong was tho elec tric current that ho was thrown to the ground on his face. Two fellow workmen, swing him being tumbled about on the ground, came to his res cue and it required their united strength to pull him loose from the wire and In doing this parts of his clothing wero torn from his body. Hammond was taken to Dr. Shear er's office, where he was treated, and Monday forenoon he was able to he about town, suffering only from the nauseating after effect of the elec tricity. His hands were burned, but slightly, but his face and body was quite badly bruised from the hammer ing he had received on the ground. The wire was carrying a 2200 volt age but because of the fact that tho ground where Hammond was stand ing was very dry he did not get near ly its full strength. EASTER BONNETS 7 DON MM E Now wouldn't It make you mad!

I). C. WHITE. The Central Labor Council, through its president, W. E. .Johnson, has ask ed that a committee of the Commer cial club meet with the couucil to night nnd discuss the matter. Johnson still maintains that ho knew nothing of the matter, saying that he was not present when the circular was authorized. WASHINGTON, I). C, April S. "Pernicious activity of the federal of fice holders In Kentucky" is tho bur den of an open letter Issued to Presi dent Taft today by Senator Joseph M. Dixon of Montana, manager of the campaign of Theodora Roosevelt, In which he declares to the president: "Unless these acts are repudiated by you and those committing them im mediately cited for trial you cannot escape tho charge of being willing to profit knowingly by theft." Dixon's letter cites acts which he asserts are "open violation of execu tive orders and of civil service regu lations, and which operates to sub vert the directly expressed will of a majority of the voters In plain lan guage, they constitute theft." 500 MORE SIM We Will Close Out Every Piano Shipped To Mr. B.

Since coughs aro caused by Irrita tion of tho sensitive lining of the bronchial tubes, tho only way to cure a cough Is to stop that Inflammation. Tho only way to do that Is through tho blood by ranking It richer so that It will nourish nnd soothe the Inflamed, tender tissues. Instead of cough syrups wo always recommend that sterling blood and strength renewer, Vlnol. It Is a de licious cod liver and Iron preparation without oil and actually cures poughs, colds and bronchitis by building up tho whole system. Mrs. Besslo Muthes, Lynchburg, H.

Two bottles of' Vlnol fixed mo up all right, my cough Is gono nnd I am butler In every way." Wo glvo back your money If Vlnol does not do all that wo claim, Medford Pharmacy, Medford, Ore.
