Smith, of Rose burg, who is prominently 'identified with tax reform movements. The i Union County Taxpayers' league meets here next Saturday to make its selections. The letter covering the vital pur poses of tho league, follows: A state wide conference on taxation will be held in Salem or Portland the latter part of April. The date is not set yet but I expect it will be about April 23d. The purpose of this con ference is to organize the various County Taxpayers' league into one big State Taxpayers' league.

The beneficial results which can, should, and, I feel confident, will, flow from this conference and from tho state leamie are so numerous thnt I think it unnecessary to go into detail at this time.

In counties where no Tax payers' loaguo has yet been formed the local Board of the Oregon Rational Tax Reform association should send two delegates. This will give every county in the State equal representa tion at the Conference and each coun ty should be represented by its two delegates. I will advise you about April 7th as to the exact date and meeting place of the Conference. While onlv tho duly authorized dele gates will he entitled to n vote the general public is cordially invited to attend. Some very interesting talks and discussions will be had.

THE FORUM j (Continued from Page 3.) hours of service become more intense ly fierce, the railway employe still measures up to his work. In the great (railway yards the switchmnn whose tired feet strike the engine "footboard" or the cinders all day' or night, or tho man in the cab who pulls and throws the levers back and forth all day or night, working among countless and conflicting sig nnls and endless danger and in every condition of weather those are the true soldiers of industry. These men should not need to ask for better con ditions. Better conditions should have been given them yeairs ago. Twelve hours or more, is their present day or night, when eight hours should be their limit The fostering by some railways of various unfair conditions, and their usual opposition to nil suggestions to wards improvement and their com plaint about unf arr regulations lhas provoked a reproof from one of the most conservative of odr public men. In a speech before tho New York Traffic Club on February 21. ex Preeident Tnft troprovod tho railways for their misdeeds and their opposi tion to the laws of tihe hind and to re form. He accused tibem of corrupt- MS ing councils and legislatures and do-1 fying the interstate commerce com-, mission and being generally unreasoi albe, and thyn warned them of a pos sible government ownership.. The general public will give this conserva tive speaker serious consideration. The employes may well feel they have r.ble counsel .upon their side. President Wilson has said that the workers have a right to say under what conditions they will work.. Tho railway employes merely ask that the public approve their effort for a rea sonable condition.
