MAN SHOOTS
WIFE NEAR
DALLAS, OR.
DALLAS, Or., Dec, 20. George F.
West of Fellows, Kern county, Call
fornla, shot and instantly killed his
wife, Flora West, at the home of John
O. Brown, in North Dallas, shortly
after 11 o'clock this morning. West
then took a small vial, of carbolic acid
with suicidal intent, but at last report
from the Dallas hospital, whe-e tho
man was conveyed, he may survive.
Sovietizing Industry
It is distinctly a forward declaration made by Wil
liam E. Kimsey, secretary of the Oregon State Feder
ation of Labor, is his statement that "practically every
activity of organized labor is tending, and rightly so, to
ward the control of industry." The author of this rath
er astounding avowal has gone far since he learned his
trade of a linotype operator at a keyboard in the plant
of the Morning Enterprise, where open shop conditions
have always prevailed, and where the producing family
is accepted and remains on a basis of merit, loyalty and
service on both sides.
In short Mr. Kimsey, official spokesman for or
ganized labor in Oregon, would sovietize the country's
industries, and he would obtain control "only by ab
sorbing industry, either by nationalization or by having
each industry placed in the hands of those who work
therein."
By "industry" we assume that Mr. Kimsey means
all manufacturing concerns, as well as every wholesale
and retail establishment, and every organization of
whatever kind where labor is employed, from the farm
to the factory. In plain English "nationalization" can
mean only ownership and control of operations by the
state, for which Socialism is another word.
It is not explained how this "nationalization" is to
be accomplished. It may be by purchase, in which case
we must admit organized labor has a perfect right to
purchase and to operate industrial concerns. Many -of
them are today owned and controlled by men who once
were laborers, and who were savers instead of spenders,
who were students instead of sluggards, who were fired
by ambition instead of by class envy and hatred.
Just the minute labor obtains control of industry,
and starts operations, just that minute labor becomes
identified as an employer. His mental attitude must
undergo a complete reformation. He immediately en
ters upon problems far removed from labor, such as
financing, meeting payrolls, collection and absorbtion
of bad debts, anticipation of market conditions, pur
chase of materials and supplies, organization of various
departments and hundreds of other problems of capital
that must be successfully met if the industry in question
is to survive. He must also be content to see his earn
ings cut with the lean years that nearly every industry
has. t
We fear 'Mr. Kimsey is looking at this great ques
tion in a one-sided way. The American people will
never countenance confiscation of industry, nor will
they sanction a Russianized solution of their every-day
problems.
TWO CLUBS

Traveling Expense
is Free From Tax
WASHINGTON, Dec. 21. Travel

In excess of the sum he would pay at

ANOTHER 'LITTLE
STILL' IS FOUND
NEAR THE
Another still and all the "fixins"
was discovered by Sheriff Wilson and
Portland revenue deputies Monday
afternoon, when the plant owned by
one Joe Markee was taken near the
headwaters of Clear Creek In the
Logan district Markee was not at
borne at the time of the raid and had
gone to Portland, where the federal
men expect to arrest him. The re
sult of the raid was one 15-gallon
and one 30-gallon still, the latter all
set np ready tor business, and about
150 gallons ot corn mash. The plant
was artfully hid among fallen trees
and brush about two miles oft the
main road, near a small stream tri
butary to Clear Creek, and the path
to the still which led from Markee's
house wag covered over with leaves
and brush.
Markee Is a recent arrival in this
country and has a wife and daughter,
who were away from home at the
time Of the raid. The stills were
brought to Orgon City, where they
are being held as evidence.
RUM AND MASH
ARE TAKEN IN
RAH) NEAR HERE
Nick Fakaras, Chronis Grlzakls, and
K. Tsisilios, Greeks, with equipment
and apparatus for making moonshine
as elaborate and complicated as their
several names, are in the custody of
the Federal officers in Portland, fol
lowing a raid on their distillery by
Sheriff Wilson, Deputy Hughes and
revenue men of Portland Friday af
ternoon, between Boring and Orient
rne men evidently specialized on
rum, made from molasses, and 123
gallons of1 the .finished product and
60 gallons of mash were found on the
premises. One hundred gallons of
the rum were destroyed and the ap
paratus smashed by the officers.
The outfit according to Sheriff Wll
son, was one of the best yet seen In
the county. Of especial interest was
the filtering plant, composed ot two
circular vats, made of wood, seven
feet high and two feet in diameter.
The filtering process was completed
by straining the liquor through vats.
which contained alternate layers ot
charcoal, sand, and blankets. The
place had been under surveilence for
about a week, said Wilson, and the
men were caught red-handed in a job
ot distilling. The outfit was con
tained in a small shed near the house.
It is understood that they rented the
place and had lived there for some
time, although the officers believe
that they had not yet put any ot their
output on the market. The rum was
contained in barrels. One ot the
Greeks had lived in America for 17
years another 13, and the third
years, but none was naturalized. Lit

ture of John Doughty will be paid to
Constable Fortune and Ed. .Richard- '
son, of Oregon City. Although tho

ter to be cleared up soon, and were
pleased at the outcome.
Fortune said yesterday afternoon
that he had received a letter from
Detective Mitchell a few days ago, in
which he was informed that the
money would be awarded soon, but
no authentic word from Mitchell as
to the outcome of the case had been
received by him.
When asked what he would do with
bis share of the money. Fortune said
that Inasmuch as the discount In ex
change between this country and
Ontario was so high 14 per cent he
would invest the money in Candaian
bonds until he could cash in without
so much loss.
The money to be divided $15000
between Richardson and Fortune will
be fcplit fifty-fifty, and Richardson is
also In favor of keeping the money tn
Canada until the rate of exchange bo
tween that country and the United
States is mor? on a par.
