GOMPEHS STUNG BY HOT ATTACK European Labor Chiefs Turn Upon Him for Not Urging World Federation. . HIS PLAN CALLED MOCKERY International Trades Union Con gres. Opens With Lively Clash, Growing Out or Old and Xew World Differences. PARIS. Auk. 30. Samuel Gompers, pres ident of the American Federation ot La bor was the dramatic center of the first day s fusion- of the sixth International Trades-Vnlon Congress, when several European delates bitterly denounced what they called the equivocal attitude of the American Federation with reference to Joining the International movement. Mr. Gompers. In reply. Insisted that the problems and policies of American trades, unionism were so intermingled with. American traditions and ideaa that Amer icans could 111 spare the time to encoun ter the Influence of European leaders where the trades-union tendencies were temperamentally different. His Project Called Mockery. Nevertheless, as an evidence that the Vnlted States was anxious for Interna tional co-operation. Mr. Gompera Intro duced a proposal favoring a world-wide organixation. which would "defend the rlKhts and interests of all and create in ternational fraternity and solidarity. The clash came over the question or the exact status of Mr. Gompers and the Federation in the conference. Mr. Gom pers' statement was at first received coldly Several delegate Jumped to their f-et to protest. Mr. Hueber. an Austrian ri.-lcgate. vehemently characterised Mr. Gompers" explanation as mockery Stings Gompers to Retort. "We thank you for your opinions." he said pointedly, but we do not need them. Tour policies may not permit you to come to ms. but one day. American workmen, you will realize that your policies are er roneous and you will see the necessity of Joining the international confederation. Mr. Gompers. Btlngtng under the re buke, rose to reply. I -egret." he exclaimed, "that you have misconstrued my remarks as an attack upon European trades unionism. I re peat we slncerelv dejlre lnternaflonal federation, but only so far as It preserves the American conception of unionism. If Biirnpe does not want us. It will be un fortunate. Nevertheless, we are going to do even-thin? possible t. attain the goal for which the human race Is strug glingInternational rraiernnj " umi-j-About Time. to Decide. Hueber retorted that It was seven years since the Americans began talking about Joining International confederation and that It was about time a decision was reached. M. I.ein. the International secretary, re viewed th controversy with the state ment that Mr. Gompers was only a guest, but he hoped that that official was con vinced that the moment had arrived for the American Federation of Labor to Join forces with their European brethren. The regular business of the conference was then continued and resolutions were adopted showing sympathy with the strik ers In Sweden and Barcelona and for an appeal to the unionists of the world to strive for the abolition of war. Keep Oat Strikebreakers. J. Eids Howe, the other American rep-rr-ertat!ve. offered a resolution which urged the unions of all countries to fight against the movement of workmen fsim one country to another In times of econo mic depression, when strikes were threat ened. Eighteen countries are now represented at th congress and the secretary an nounced a membership In affiliated or ganizations of 4.:i6.0 an Increase of 190S. Among the other subjects discussed were the reduction of hours of labor and regulations governing work in domi ciles. Divide on Issue of Socialism. Newspapers devote much space to the International congress and the significance of the presence of Mr. Gompers. The Journal des Dehats points out that the American Federation of Labor and the French General Federation of Labor, which did not Join In the last two con ferences, represent opposing conceptions of trade unionism. "Mr. Gompers. representing the Ameri can sentiment." the paper says, "Is ut terly opposed to building up of unionism on a foundation of Socialism, politics or open revolution. Instead, his work lies in the direction of developing the real Interests of the workingmen and solving the problems of labor and capital."

London morning papers make a big feature of the success ful Inauguration of the Fishguard route, which brings New York within Ave days of London. It Is heralded as a great triumph on the part of the Cunard and railway companies.

Or., Aug. 30. (Special.) An Initiative petition to call a spe cial election for th epurpose of sub mitting to a vote the proposed Incor poration of the Port of Neralem, will be submitted to the County Court of Tillamook county soon. This port is being organized under the law passed by the last Legislature, providing for organization of ports on the Oregon coast and giving such ports authority either to bond or assess the property tributary. The proposed Port of Nehalem will undertake the construction of a Jetty at the mouth of the Nehalem River, thus Insuring a depth of water on the bar of from 20 to 22 feet. This Im provement is taken to mean the full development of an Immense lumbering business on Nehalem Bay. Standing tributary to Nehalem Bay is some of the finest timber In the coun try today, only awaiting transporta tion facilities. The building ot the Pacific Railway & Navigation Com pany's line to the Coast, and the con struction of the proposed Jetty at the mouth of Nehalem Bay, will give that community both rail and water trans portation.

Wash.. Aug. 2 (To the Editor.) The final call to the late Samuel A Clarke at Salem, Or., brinies to mind that ha wham DIM many residents of the time in Klickitat 15 years &xo Knew tne aecBmca .s pmm Clarke, was my guest for a week, and in vestigated the horticultural interests of Klickitat County. "6am" Clarke's visit marked the begin ning of the horticultural activities in the now famous Goodnoe Hills. At that time horticulture was given little attention, but enough demonstration was in sight to Jus tify the observing and knowing visitor in aaylng- the soli was the home of the apri cot and other fruits. "Sam" not only preached the fact to the landowners who were not succeeding in other culture, but he was the first writer in a versatile manner to proclaim through the newspapers that there were two distinct fruit belts In Klickitat County. 'Bam" was not only one of the few who came to Cali fornia in 1840 and reached Oregon in 1850. but was one of the very few men on the Paclflc Coast who aided by his writings in impressing on the timid mind of the Eastern Investor that the completion of railroads across the continent would mean the advent and maintenance of a great population on the Paclflc slope. ' . The eventual construction of the North Bank road was one of "Sam's" day dreams years ago. and I am glad he lived to see some of his predictions come true fcefore his four score and two years were passed. Clarke waa a man who was alive to the beauties of nature as well as the actions of mankind.- This was evinced during his visit last April to Qoldendale. when wild lowers new to him bedecked the roadside, and the meadow lark thrilled the heart to inspira tion, A ladles' church society headed by Mrs. Jessie Waller, wife of a local pastor, was preparing for a May day programme. The late William R. Dunbar suggested that they put his old-time Salem neighbor down for an address. Owing to a previous en gagement, he could not be present but he sent the ladies a poem that was found in every way appropriate for the occasion. 11 peace be to "Sam's" long rest. P " JOHfJ O.

MAKE FOR Prudent parents endeavor to make provision for their children. Some take out life insurance which death alone makes productive. Others place their surplus earnings in savings banks which increases slowly at a small rate of interest.

When you own one of these tracts you have made generous provision for your offspring. It will produce a handsome income for you during life and will in crease in value from year to' year. A life insurance policy makes death easier to bear. A ten acre orchard tract will make both life and death easier. TERMS. A small payment down and a stipulated sum monthly.
