LABOR UNION SENTIMENT
AGAINST SECRETARY TAFT
CONCORD, X. I!,, Jan. 10. Opposi
tion to William II. Taft as a presiden
tial candidate was embodied in a state
ment issued by the executive commit
tee of tho Xe.v Hampshire branch of
,'the American IVdi ration of Labor. The
statement says in part:
" We, in k utimeiit and sympatphy
with union members of all political
parlies in this country, hereby declare
ourselves unalierably opposed to the
nomination of William IL Taft, secre
tary of wa: 'or the presidency; that
we recognize in him, through his public
utterances and judicial decisions and
opinions, tin- :irch enemy of organized
labor; that he I.i the instrument and ex
ponent of capitalistic power; that the
writ itf injunction which he upholds,
never was iht ruled and never should
be permitted to deprive honest industry
of its per:'ii::I rights; that we object
to his methods of rampaigning as any
one mail ' -uai. Im.vover exalted and in
fluenlia! may he his master, or wide
spread his O'.v.'. support and endeavor;
and that we are determinedly and irre
vocably opposed to his candidacy."
Ah the trend of union labor is toward
Socialism, according to its acknowl
edged leaders, Mr. Taft will nut be
damaged, if lie is nt benefited, by
organized labor, should he be the He
publican nominee for president, as it
is claimed that nearly ail of the mem
bers of the labor organizations will vote
for the ppresidential ticket nominated
bv the Socialists.

house, an employe of the general land
office, is already there. All witnesses
in t he case will be in court Monday,

error of the presiding judge relative to

method of conducting the trial, the in
dictment and other phases not being
criticised.

DENOUNCtD
THE APPRECIATIVE PUBLIC
GREET THE DAILY TRIBUNE
T
Long List of Valuable, Desirable Prizes 0f
feredis Enthusiastically Received by
the Candidates and Their Friends0et
Your Subscription in Early.
Many expressions of encourag iiieut
have been received from prominent bus
iness men and leading educators of this
community regarding the wonderful
offer made by the Medford Tribune, in
which $:i.rH)ii.ni) in prizes wilt be givn
to seventeen ladies in the field cov
ered by this paper, and tme and all
have pronounced it a praiseworthy und
excellent opportunity for the ladies of
this section to be awarded a valuable
prize by a very little effort on their
part. '
It was expected that tho offer of the
Medford Tribune would be eul husias
tically received and create somewhat of
a fjcusntion throughout (his section, but
the remarkable interest manifested bv
old and young has been a genuine sur
prise. The prospects are that the con
test will bo decidedly interest ing and
closely contested from tho start. Many
unities of candidates have already been
sent in ami more are expected before
t h announcement of I he contestants '
iiniiiiM, to be published next Saturday,
January 11. Hut it is not expected to
have a full list of candidates who will
try for the prizes before several weeks,
as they will keep coming tn from tiny
to day as their friends nominate them.
uh they are accepted throughout the en
lire contest, even the last wot'k.
Enter Your Own Name.
Some ladies have nsked if they may
enter their own names. Yew, of course.
Merely write your name and address
on one of the nomination blanks nml
send in care of the Contest Popart inent .
Medford Tribune, and it will count you
L'.'i votes; then start out in enrnest fur
more. Any slip of paper sent in nom
inating some lady will count for
votes, whet her cut from t he Tribune
or on a plain piece of papepr. If do
wired, nominate a dozen or more t he
more Hie merrier.
A Surprise.
Many ladies will be surprised lonior
row to see their names in the paper, a
many of t he readers of t he Trib
line haw already filled in the names
of ipiite a few to start them without
their knowledge, and they are saying
nothing aboil it, so they will not kuon
until the list is printed, therefore there
iw a surprise in store for both candi
dates and Tribune readers.
Choose some -mitiMtant you desire to
help, tell her fri. n.lw to iudp I" r and
encourage her to Jo a lit t le husl Mug
for herself. This will Htart the ball
rolling, und the way votes will pile u
will surprise everybody.
Exccllont Opporptupnity.
Never before have such opporl uiiil ies
been offered to bid ies of Jack soli
'urry, Del No rle, Josephine, Lake
K'lamalh and Siskiyou counties. He
member t hut even though you do not
have the most votes vou mav still win
a prize, as there are 17 awards' lo In
made, and by starting now before your
competitors get a big lead, and by
curing pledges of vour friends for
voles you will find the task a compara
lively easy one. The fairness of tin
arrangements, too, appeals to the pub
lie I'sually in such affairs only oni
person in the district wins; iti this eon
let there n re to be many winners, si
that the votes will not be lost if not
cast for the one standing highest. The
second will win, and so on. Votes will
be given on all cash turned into the of
f ice on subs, i ipt ions, whet her old oi
new subscriptions, though a new -sub
scriptioii will be worth twice as much
as nn old subscription.
Call for a Receipt Book.
A ca mlidate called at. the office of
the Tribune yesterday ami said she
would like to win one of the prizes
but she did not know what to do and
how to go about it, and there wen
several things about the districts and
prizes that she did not understand. She

Now. if then is anv one who -wants
to know anything about the contest
