A 'MODERN STORY
OF. ANCIENT MOSES
John Stark Brings Him Down to Date
With a Modern Moral
A short while ago the Courier ed
itor was lamenting for a leader; told
us we had been milling around in a
circular muddle until we were dizzy.
Well what has become of that
score of great ones whose pictures
adorned not only the pages of the
press but fence corners also? These
were announced with a nourish ol
trumpets and great dabs of ink as
the path finders of human progress.
We heard, headed and followed only
to met ourselves going in opposite
directions and again returning in our
own tracks. Now that we find out
thru the Courier that we have been a
band of sheep, I am wondering what
has become of the shepherd. Has
he, or they, gone to look up a better
market for merinos or has he pocKet
ed the proceeds and is toasting his
toes before some official nrepiacei
Or perhaps the wolf has appeared
and our heroic shepherd has tanen to
tall timber. Is it not this sheepish
,t.Qa nf nurs following leaders that
has got us confused and brot us to
the block?
Now the moaning for a Moses to
to Canaan. If he had look.
ed up the acient files of the Courier
he might have found out Moses led
the ancestors of our pawn-brokers and
seconded handed dealers out into the
desert and then they were face to
face with the problem he finds we are
in; getting nowhere. Now that we
see the fix we are in why not lead
ourselves awhile, follow our own noses
il we are without a notion i rai
rums wo mav do better, hardly worse,
Let us do our own thinking, after that
leaders may have a chance to bring
up the rear.
Perhaps you being young, are not
familiar with Moses, he was quite a
hero in the days of my childhood, so
hrief fiketch of him will
not be out of place, as my recollec
tion seems clear on that man's career.
The subject had an interesting
time of it at the very start on his
earthly pilgrimage. A short time
before his birth the legislature went
our late lamentable session one better
fin the line of eugenics. Instead of
starting a public unuck factory, as
proposed by Dr. Owens Adair and
the old grannys of our law factory,
this advanced school of human up
lift made a male child of a certain
uaA on nntlaw. So all the law a
biding people of that time killed the
boys at birth instead of waiting for
t.n manhood an.l

cued by a princess, who perhaps used
him in a breach of promise suit, af
he finding out now
he was jobbed, discarded the class
and and caste idea and began to take
an interest in the welfare of the
brick makers. From that time on he
was no longer "respectable." But he
was game and never squealed. One
"muckboss" abusing one
of the "hands." He promptly put
his light out, after Beelng none ol ine

the sand. So far as I am able to find

Soon after that he got cold feet
and left for the sheep country, pos
sibly the Burnt River district. There
being broke and out of grub he herd

the slang for "staiuie miuuw...

w0 nf cold" stuff or declare
wo a "Btjindini? at Armageddon bat
tling for the Lord" he might need to
dodge enough briciiDius to uuu
pyramid. So he decided to look up
his brother who was then a sort of a
lackey for one of the bent families.
He was not much given to hard work,
but could talk. In case of success
Aaron would be at the head of the
hotair department, which was later
accomplished. Of course it is good
politics to get the family on the pay
roll and nepotism was popular those
days.
During the time Moses was a
princess' protege he mixed up with
all the wise men so he learned sleight
of hand tricks, which the workers
thot were supematurnl powers and
the king who was a lazy, dull fellow
used to pass most of his time away
at such entertainments the movies
were not popular at that time. So
h nrftetieed ud while herding sheep.
One stunt was to turn his shepherd i
crook into what Cleopatra canea me
pretty worm of Nilus." At this he
was a topnotchcr and impressed
Pharaoh greatly.
It seems that he did not have a
great deal of trouble to organize the
workers and did it so quietly it never
got into the papers.
At that time labor unions seem to
have been practically unheard of. so
some other appeal must be used than
the right of the worker to establish
rules governing1 working conditions.
So Moses based his appeal to the
"God of Israel." about which deity
the king knew little and cared less.
It would seem that at that time
there was only one God. Perhaps as
civilization had not been carried very
far inland that was all that was nec
cessary to look after things. Two
more have been added to the force
since then, which divides the duties
into three eight-hour shifts andi
makes it lots easier all around. Mos
es, however, took his snake-rod and
showed Pharaoh some new and start
ling stunts, but the old duffer just
njoyed the show as a kingly peroga-
tive without costing anything but he
refused to cancel the bonds he held
against the Hebrews. Bonds were at
that time marked on the backs of the
workers with a whip lash or perhaps
ear marks or brands. Now in our
civilized (?) time and country bonds
are written on paper it is much
cheaper and the worker is told that
he is a "free citizen of this glorious
epublic where every man a a king."
So the worker need not be guarded
but will work all the harder to pro
duce "interest on the bonds."
Of course had the king given a
release he would have lost the labor
and the snake show in the bargain
which was mors than he would stand
for. so he told Moses he was "too
adical and that the interests of cap
ital and labor were mutual and the
Jews were not fit for self govern
ment, in fact they had always got
along peacably until such agitators
as h created strife." Perhaps you
have heard almost the same if you
ever were around where many wage
workers are employed.
When persons are once in some
high position and make their appeal
to God it is not easy to crush out
their aspirations or the hopes of their
followers. This is aptly shown in
the clash at arms at present in Eu
rope. It is history back to the very
dawn of recorded movements of bod
ies of men, the appeal to the occult
the belief that an all-controling
force is in harmony with such move
ments stimulates all mankind to
ereater and more heroic action
There are students in anthropopathy,
if I understand them correctly, who
insist that we and God are really the
same substance, that when we appeal
to that higher ideal, called God, we
merely and perhaphs unconciously
call out the Supreme Being in our
own acts. This would therefore
seem to explain why such movements
reach such climaxes and explain the
cohesiveness of such large aggrega
tions of men in motion. (Doubtless
you understand all that I don't, but
perhaps that is what the editor meant
by alluding to the powers in our uone
boxes.)
but compare them to the negro in an exprt at snake business, and he
Hail Columbia when the crash of con
federacy came. The ex-slave wept-
he was lost, alone in the great wil
derness of capitalistic economies.
As soon as the speech making was
over and the re-echos of the hurrah
had died away and they turned to
ward the east without the harsh com
mands of the task master, facing an
unknown country and to them an un
comprehendible fate, one extreme
following another, many wanted to
go back. It taxed the ripe mind, the
masterly intellect of Moses to prevent
the foolish stampede. He, having ex
periences in life of freer environ
ment, was not minded to obey a
master. Right here we have the ex
planation of the psychology, the mys
tery of why men will Ibe bamboozled
bv such frauds as Teddy, Bryan and
scores of others of equal standing in
politics economics or religion, slaves
of habit, no initiative. "They not to
reason why." Obey is the only word
they understand.
Having once again turned their
faces eastward, toward the rising
sun. toward hope, again imbued with
a resolve to own and inhabit some
soil of which thy would be the mas
ter. The master? What a master
of whom? Master of themselves!
Could these toilbent brickmakers
catch the meaning? Can you catch
the inspiration, you who read this
storv written bv one who has also
made bricks without straw?
Moses, who no doubt had travelled,
took them into "dry territory," which
was infested with venomous snakes
of the real thing. Here many were
bitten and died. When they went to
the drugstore with a prescription
reading "Sp. Frumenti one gal., sig.
made a snake of brass for them to
look at and look hard so all that
looked that way were cured. Some
contend Moses was the originator of
drugless treatment in the form of
suggested therapractics, dui ii is
likely he got the idea from India.
He continued his literary work and
has taken his place among the
world's most famous historians.
Manv incidents "worthy of note
connected with this great "back to
the land" movement, the leader is
however refered to the unabridged
history, which may be had at bra
gain prices this time of the year.
This item, so replete with interest,
deals more with the psychology of
the movemnt than its historical feature.
The workers, who had always been
driven to their tasks were hardly fit
to conquer other peoples and take
possession, so time was taken to al
low another generation, one which
had grown up under freer environ
ment to fight the final battle of in
dependance. In a like manner the Amercian
people have so long been merely fol
lowers of leaders, who have led them
the past forty years around in a
circle in the capitalistic wilderness.
They do not comprehend what liberty
means. Always ready to iouow a
leader who can make noise enough to
confuse them.
Let us resume our narrative for
a brief final note.
The voune generation were now
ready to do something for themselv
es. Moses, who was able to lead
them out of Egypt into the wilder
ness, could not lead them to the land
of corn and wine. Some people
TIMBER ROADWAYS
IS A SOLUTION
S. B. Cobb Advocates Ventilated,
Well Constructed Lumber Roads.
The following is an novel idea of
solving the road problem in Oregon,
as given by S. B. Cobb of Portland,
before the East Side Business Men's
Association. The novelty is in its
newess. In part Mr. Cobb said:
' "Now it costs, (estimated), $16,-
000 Der mile to lay hard surface
roads and perhaps S18.UU0 or $i,
000 is nearer right. Where there is
a steep grade a horse cannot get a
footing but falls. I propose, that
the product of Oregon saw mills be
used to building roads not tne or
dinarv plank roads that do not give
good service, but a well constructed,
well drained and well ventilated
timber roadway that will cost about
half what the hard surface coats. Ail
the material used will be Oregon ma
terial Oresron made lumber by Ore-
rrnn lahnr and Oreeon men. A hard
surface roadway is made from mater
ial from Trinidad and from cement
from outside the state."
"The timber roadway that I pro
pose must not be confused with the
plank roadway, which is an expensive
roadway and gives little service. The
timber roadway I propose is to be
built on entirely different lines, and is
in no sense a plank roadway. The
old nlanks were laid without regard
to grain, ventilation or drainage, and
soon worn out and was aiscaraeu
The timber road proposed by thi
new plan will be laid in pieces 6x6
verticallv with the grain and not nat.
These pieces will be laid on cedar
pieces which in turn will rest on a
Such seems to have been the
case in this the first great revolt of
unreauited labor I ever read about,
It seems that the theory of injunction
against labor agitators was not de
t that time and not until
such reptiles as Grosscupp mcn in
German means "bighead,") and W.
H. Taft, was it generally used. How
ever the oppressors of labor became
active in imposing new burdens up
on the exploited stranger within
their gates. Just why the most
prominent citizens did not deport
Moses as was done at Bandon in a
similar affair, where the state clown
made such noise about the rights of
citizens, history does not say.
Matters got worse between the
worker and the shirker and the Cairo
Daily Astonisher told the workers
not to listen to the walking delegate,
that this undesirable citizen was in
terfering with prosperity; you know
the dope. Many times Moses sought
to placate the king with his snake
rod performances and speeches thru
his brother. "Nothin' doin' " was
all the reply he could get. So Moses
organized an "inner circle," a . sort
of a night rider affair. These were
men who were well acquainted wun
the private affairs of the "respect
able families" as they had been
pressed into domestic service by
thflm.
During all this time the workers
were becoming more devout in their
religious rites, many of them were
rather new to the ruling class but
us the brickmakers claimed it was
worship to their own deity little at
tention was paid to it. One of these
pirna WAR tn sprinkle blood on the
door posts to keep the evil genius
away.
When all was ready the first gen
eral direct action in labor disputes
was successfully pulled off, with the
result that all the prominent families
had a first-class funeral on their
hands when they awoke the next
morning. It is clamied to have had
a tremendous effect upon the senti
ment as to whether or not it would
pay to build any more pyramids just
at that timo and building operations
came to a sudden and unexpected
halt. Instead of pleading to go,
these despised workers were peremp
tnviiv ordered out. So unexpected
. . . . ... U..1,J
was the order that tne women uimcu
the unraised dough into bread an
annual festival is said to have its or
igin in this event. The property
holders were so anxious to get them
out tluit their women folk gave up
their earrings and other jewelry if
they would just leave.
At first the question was raised
how it was that no funerals were
among tha workers and wholesale ar
rests were threatened. The dofensc
was that the avenging Lord had kill
ed the oppressors' children because
they had killed the children of the
workers as proof of the occult source

down the criminal labor leaders, so he
started out in pursuit. Moses saw
them coming, so when night came on
and they were tired from their forc

to the axes of the fugitives, who then
spread the report that these had
perished in the red sea. Of course
it was the sea which flowed from
their cut throats.

nobody ever reads it, tho many
people will declare they implicitly be

a fact.

pieces become worn they can be turn
ed and more wear secured.. A gas

road and the pieces can be worked
down to 6x5 pieces and the life of the

Construction of these timber road
ways throughout the state would do
much toward putting idle sawmills
and idle men to work besides being
built of Oregon material. This plan
miirht be subject to some change
but I am satisfied that laid under the
direction of a competent engineer
would be an excellent road and give
all-round service.
"Gentlemen of the East Side Bus-j
iness Men's Club, I have submitted
this plan for your consideration from
a purely unselfish motive as a citizen
and business man, who will be glad to
help the lumber industry of this state.
The lumber business is vital to the
state, to the machinist, the mrchant,
the laboring man and to every one in
the state. I propose to submit this
plan to the county commissioners, and
ask them to make a test of the timber
roadwav."

he showed a working model of the

Washington County Troubles
A great deal of interesth as been
aroused by the action of the County
Commissioners in barring auto del
livery trucks from the roads during
the winter months. It is understood
that other counties will lollow cms
lead, and that the men who have
been competing for freight hauling,
etc., will find it impossible to ply
their trade in the wet montns.
There is a question, first ot all
whether the County Court has the
right to prevent the use of the roads
by any particular class oi venicies,
but even if they have this power, is
it advisable to exercise it.' u tne
trucks can be barred from the road,
could not the same authority make

A DISGRACE TO
OUR CIVILIZATION
"Third Deeree" and Court Methods
Relic of Puritan Days
Recently the Courier had some com
mnts on tho methods used by the
iheriff's department and district at
torney to force out a confession thru
the "third dogree" and how on trial
the, man pould not be compelled to
testify.'
The Richmond, Cal., Herald re
printed the article prefaced with these
observations:
"Havo vou noticed that every mag
istrate, police officer and district at-
tornov assumes that every person ar-
estcd, no matter wntit lor, is guuvy
:nd should bo classed along with mat
df actors and treated as such? It is
is a singular way of looking at the
matter uner the laws of thi sgreat
tate and nation, but it is true, never
theless.
"The law savs that every man ac
cused of crime is supposed to be in
nocent until he is proven guilty, but
the sheriff, the police, tho magistrate
and the district atto.-ney assume that
he is euiltv and all the great machin
ery is brought to bear to prove the
theorv correct.' He is tortured ana
nat?eed at and threatened to com
pel him to make a confession and when
he does sav something it is useu
naninst him at the trial and if he
says nothnig at all it is told at the
trial that the prisoner was morose
and stubborn and refused to talk, and
this is used as incriminating evidence,
And all this is done by men who are
sunnosed to be officers of the court
and are seeking after nothing but the
truth.
"But that is only One phase of the
fool methods employed by a lot of
sensible men and for no other reason
than that the same tactics were pur
sued by somebody a hundred or a
thousand years ago. It is a sense
less and unfair custom and one which
is a disgrace to our civilzation."
