Union county grangers are givlns
their hearty support to an exhaustive
report and recommendation mi the
several good roads bills pending he
fore the voters next Tuesday. Copies
of the Hood River resolutions have
been distributed broadcast in this
county and It Is safe presumption to
say that the grangers and many far
mers who are no grangers, will sup
port the oonunlltee report.
The Hood Hi'ver Commercial club
after months of Investigation of the
various road bills, appointed a com-
mitt ee of twenty-five, consisting nt
business men of different lines, only
two of whom were grange members.
This committee reported to the club
recommending endorsement of the
grange bills No. 324 and No. 326, and
asking that the reasons below be
sent to every commercial body it:
the state, requesting them to bring
our action to the attention of their
members and their local papers:
Tli Conimfltee Report.
The Grange Road Bills No. 324
and 326, compared with other Initia
tive bills provide for a more uniform
and complete system of road con
struction. They make the state
highway engineer a compulsory ad-
visoi' in approving all contracts for
permanent road construction before
they are let by the county courts, we
also believe that the provision pro
viding that all road construction
must be done under the direction of
a practical road builder who Is wise
and economical. We - believe mat
the Grange county bonding act will
be more practical and more likely to
encourage road building than any
other bonding act before the people,
and It provides for better protection
of the expenditure of the people's
money than any road bill to be voted
unon.
We believe the plan for selectinu
'e roads to be improved In each
county at a county road meeting
(which Is very democratic) will give
better satisfaction than any other
KVRtem vpt suggested. We believe
that these bills provide all the laws
necessary at tb,ls time to start the
good roans movement on a prru.r
pent 'basis. If at some future tii.ie
we-desire to alter or amend, thes"
lnw. we on do so. but we must have
a start. The people of Oregon have
nnt an vet seen the Importance of
hnnrlltiff the state for one ml'lten
dollars annually for building goo?1,
roads, especially when there are bin
verv few safeguards placed ar mil';
the expenditure of the money.
We bel'eve It Is wise nt this th'-e
to give each countv the right to bond
fnr butldinir Its own roads, and also
gives its cit'zens the power to sa
where their money shall be ex,.ev'
ed. Tly doing this we will not onlv
satisfy our rural population, bill nt
ilie same time will enable our towns
and cities to receive Inestimah'e
benefits from the permanent r'liN
Imd'ne into them. Under this law
all cliles. town" and public utiiitv
cornnrntlons will pay ther share of
roid fvei.
We heleve that the two cnn'!"i
t'cnal amendments offered bv the
ll.nrp'onv committee should be de
feated. They are a menace to the
f!n"rt Roads movement, and n -itWr
me needed because if we do not dr

The Liabor Record of
Woodrow Wilson
William H Taft
Theodore Roosevelt
Woodrow Wilson
In 1909 Wilson said: "There is another as
formidable an enemy to equality and opportun
ity as the capitalist, the labor organization and
leader quite as monopolistic in spirit as the
capitalist, and quite as apt to corrupt and ruin
our industry by the monopoly." ,
The above statement of Mr. Wilson is not a
campaign document. It is an extract from a bac
calaureate address to a graduating class at
Princeton on June 13th, 1909, and is a matter of
record. What respect can labor have for a man
who will speak in such terms?
William H. Taft
Prior to 1908 President Taft was known as "In
junction Judge" Taft, and Samuel Gompers has
pointed out that the attitude of the president is
as unfair as was' that of "Injunction Judge"
Taft.
Theodore Roosevelt
As president he approved these measures
Creating the Department of Commerce and
Labor and making its head a cabinet officer.
Improving the act relating to safety appli-.
ances on railroad trains.
Making wages preferred claims.
For inspection of boilers.
Securing the wages of employes on public
work.
As a Progressive candidate he believes
No wage earner, man. woman or child shall
be compelled to work seven days a week.
Pensions shall be paid workmen in car9 of
sickness, irregular employment and old aec.
The organization of the workers Loth men
and women shall be encouraged.
Injunctions shall not be permitted during
strikes if such injunctions would not apply in
case there were no strike.
The Progressive party stands for the initia
tive, the referendum, the recall of decisions, di
rect primaries, direct election of United States
senators, the short ballot, an easier amendment
of t!:e federal constitution, a review of judicial
decisions and equal suffrage for men and women
