federation Prepares to Deal
? With Reconstruction.
WORKERS' RIGHTS STUDIED
Gonipcrs Says Industrial or Politi
i; cal Tyranny Cannot Prevail
. in United States.
r' ATLANTIC CITT. T. J.. June 3.-
Delegates representing more .than 3,000,
jtjOO American working men and women
t the opening session of the American
Federation of Labor here today put the
Mamp of their disapproval on the id.eas
of radical agitators and prepared to
deal with reconstruction problem of
vital importance to organized labor.
' Opportunity to show their lack of
sympathy with the efforts of radicals
frame during an address by Governor
Tiunyon of New Jersey. Referring to
;a meeting in New York last night, the
governor asserted "these men threaten
that unless things axe settled their way
chaos will result."
"I know that American labor and
this convention, fraught as it is with
uch potential consequences, has no
sympathy with any ideas that are not
constructive. J know you axe out of
'harmony with ; destruction creeds. You
think along sane lines."
I A burst of applause friom the floor
quickly swelled to a roar.
Samuel Gom'pers. president of the
American Federation of. Labor, sounded
the keynote of the convention when
he said in his opening address that or
ganized labor was determined political
or industrial tyranny ehjould have no
place in America.
"Any employer," said Mr. Gompera,
!"who thinks that industrial autocracy
Ss going to prevail in the United States
is counting without his host."
Mr. Gompers said organized labor
.was making no unjust demands and
that workers, having ?hed their blood
and made sacrifices 'to win the war,
had no intention of losing sight of the
principles, rights and .ideals for which
they had fought, now that the war is
won..
The annual report of the executive
council, containing broad outlines of
organized labor's reconstructive pro
gramme, was submitted. In it the coun
cil made many recommendations de
signed to protect the rights and im-
prive the conditions of American labor.
Recommendations for a 44-hour week
and a firm declaration that existing
wages must not be reduced, and, in
fact, in many cases, ehould be in
creased, are included as Calient points.
Among other recommendations were
that organized labor take a definite
stand as favoring public and eemi-pub
-lie ownership of utilities, development
of waterways and water power, regu
lation of land ownership, increased ac
tivity in politics, prohibition of child
Jabor, freedom of expression and asso
ciation, workmen s compensation, re
t-triction of immigration, tax adjust
ments, elimination of private employ
ment agencies and recognitio'n of the
right of school teachers to organize.
lOffEB WAGES TO BE FOUGHT
Head of Switchmen Says Industry
Should Operate for Service.
DENVER, June 9. "Labor never will
submit to one cent reduction in wages
in the readjustment to follow the war,"
declared S. F. Heberling, president of
the Switchmen's Union of North Ameri
ca, today in an address before the
triennial convention of the Brotherhood
of Locomotive Firemen and Kngine
inen. Mr, Heberling declared amid cheers
that "labor should have not a mere
living wage, but that the producers of
wealth are entitled to the comforts and
pleasures of life as well as the bare
necessities." lie predicted the time
will come when the workingman can
send his boy to collepe along with the
millionaire's son and be insured an in
dependent living in the years when he
'can work no more.
"The principle that industry should
operate merely for profit is entirely
wrong," he said. "Industry should
operate for service, rather than for
jirofit."
He declared the labor movement has
made greater progress in America
than in any other country and pre
dicted a bright future for the work
ing man because of the growing soli
darity of labor.

MEDFORD SEES AIR STUXTS
Greatest Crowd Ever Seen, in City
Views Spectacle.
MEDFORD,- Or., June 9. (Special.)
Six army airplanes from Mather field,
en route! to the Portland Rose Festival,
thrilled thousands of people of Jack
son county today as they flashed in
and out of the sun-framed clouds which
hung over the city. No such spectacle
had ever before been seen in this part
of the state, and no such crowd had
ever before gathered here. The streets
were packed; the. district near the land
ing place at Gore's ranch was so
crowded that autos could not make
headway, and every building top was
crowded with men, women and chil
dren determined to see the air stunts.
The fliers' approach was announced
by a blowing of the fire siren at 9:45.
Ten minutes later the first plane
darted out of a cloud high in the
heavens to the south, closely followed
by a second. They soared around the
city twice, and then the four other
planes came into view, flying lower.
What followed on the Jacksonville road
to Gore's ranch resembled a gold rush
to Alaska. That no one was hurt was
a marvel. - When the planes landed the
field was so densely populated that
only the efforts of self-appointed po
licemen prevented serious trouble.
Colonel Henry, L. Watson, commander
of the circus, who was flying alone,
jumped from his machine and was
greeted . by members of the Medford
Commercial club. It was several min
utes before the colonel was sufficiently
thawed out to talk.
"The flight from Grenada -was very
cold," he said, "and instead of traveling
at 10,000 feet we came down to 8200,
just enough to negotiate the Siskiyous.
We made the 60 miles in 74 minutes
against a bitter north wind. Thanks to
the exhaust, my face was not frozen."
Before leaving two of the planes per
formed dazzling acrobatics over Med
ford and the flying field.
ALL.,KOSEBCRG SEES PIjAXES
Machines, Descending on Rife
Range, Viewed by Thousands.
ROSE BURG, Or.. June 9. (Special.)
Thousands of city and country folk
almost simultaneously sighted the four
airplanes which appeared . as mere
specks on the skyline a mile above
Koseburg at 1:30 o'clock this afternoon.
Descending in graceful spirals like
monster birds the machines came close
enough to satisfy the most exacting
critic and within 15 minutes found i
safe resting place at the old 4th com
pany rifle range.
Landing in quick succession and
without the slightest mishap, the gates
were thrown open to crowds surround
ing the field. First Lieutenant J. S.
Krull said six machines had left Med
ford, but two of them, one piloted by
Colonel Henry L. Watson, and the other
by Lieutenant Hackett, soon encoun
tered trivial mishaps and returned to
Medford for repairs before continuing
their flight. Other aviators reaching
Koseburg were First-Lieutenant Will
lam M. Beck, Lieutenant William
Beaver and Second-Lieutenant Charles
W. Schwartz. -Colonel Watson and
Lieutenant Hackett reached Roseburg
about two . hours after the first four
planes made a landing.
- At 4. p.'clock three of the machines
left Roseburg, heading straight north
The other three, including the two last
to arrive here, remained until 5:30
i when 'they left the field and disap
peared to the north, expecting to reach
Eugene by 7 o'clock or earlier, where
Colonel Watson expects to overtake the
machines going in advance.
While here the aviators were the
guests of the city and carried away
with them warm remembrances of
southern Oregon hospitality.
A We DeHaviland bomber passed the
city .at 11. o clock flying about 5000
feet " high. ' The machine was headed
north and made no demonstration.

Ko crowds will be allowed on either
the Morrison or Burnside bridge and
also will be kept off the east approach
to the Hawthorne bridge during the
river events of the Rose Festival, rul
ed the county commissioners at their
session yesterday as a safety first
measure.
The bridges are held to be reasonably
safe but because of the age of the
structures and their somewhat shaky
condition when bearing heavy loads,
it was considered a necessary precau
tion to see that festival crowds were
not allowed to congregate on them.
Traffic will not be barred by police,
special deputy sheriffs and bridge
tenders who have been requested to
regulate bridge crowds, but on the
Morrison and Burnside structures all
vehicles and persons must keep mov
ing.
If there should be a larger number
of pedestrains than usual, heavy trucks
will be barred and street cars will not
be permitted to cross except with a
good distance between.
Architect's Claim Allowed.
The draw of the Burnside bridge will
be kept open between 3:30 and 3:50 on
Wednesday during the cruiser race.

After winnintr in the supreme court

tion of plans for a new county hos

missioners surrendered v without fur

payment of the bill of the architects.
without Interest.
Plans were ordered drawn for a new
county hospital in the days of Commis
sioners T. J. Cleeton, I. V. Hart and
W. L. Lightner. When completed by
the 'firm of Bridges & Webber, the i
commissioners had decided not to build
at that time and declined to pay the
J4000 fee demanded by the architects.
Suit was begun in the circuit court and
won by the architects. Instead of pay
ing at tha time an appeal was taken
to the supreme court.
Portland Verdict Reversed.
The supreme court reversed the case
on the technical grounds that the arch
itects had failed to file their claim
with the county auditor. There is
nothing to prevent the architects from
starting another suit, said Commis
sioner Hoyt yesterday before the pay
ment was authorized, and evidence had
been introduced in the previous action
which led the district attorney to ad
vise the commissioners that a retrial
was certain of success.
A successful new suit would include
court costs and interest on the $4000,
a considerable sum, and for this rea
son, in view of the very probable out
come of another court action, the com
missioners capitulated yesterday, pay
ing the $4000, without interest, and ac
cepting a waiver of claim.
Saying that he was surprised that
suit should have been brought against
him. as he understood there had been a
conference between deputy District
Attorney Hammersley and the com
plaining party's attorney which was ex
pected to settle matters. Circuit Judge
Tazwell submitted to the commissioners
a copy of the $2ttl suit begun against
him in the district court by 13. L. Jones.
Election Expense Asked.
Jones' automobile was badly damaged
May 22 in collision with a county auto
mobile driven by Judge Tazwell. The
county machine was damaged to the
extent of more than $500. The com
plaint was referred to the district at
torney for his information.
J. p. Doyle, assistant secretary of
the Port of Portland, asked to be in
formed of the exact cost of the recent
election to the port in a communication
read by the commissioners yesterday.
They referred the letter to the county
auditor and county clerk for a report
as to what would be considered equit
able distribution of costs, though as
serting they had understood the .elec
tion expense was to have been stood on
one-third basis between county, port
and state.
TRIAL HAS BORDER TOUCH
FORD HEARING BRINGS CP RIO
GRANDE SCENES.
Proceedings Introduce Rangers,
Deputy Sheriffs and Grand Con
spiracy of Empire.
MOUNT CLEMENS. Mich., June .
Followers of the trial of Henry Ford's
$1,000,000 libel suit against the Chjcago
Daily Tribune, now entering upon Its
fifth week, today got what they have
been waiting for, namely the pictur
esque touch from the Mexican border.
The proceedings before Judge J. C.
Tucker introduced rangers, deputy
sheriffs and a conspiracy of empire in
volving the capture by Mexicans of the
states of Texas, New Mexico, Arizona
and the southern part of California.
The story came mainly from Marcus
W. Hines, now a customs official at
Santa Maria, Texas, and Thomas S.
Mayfield of Pharr, Hidalgo county,
Texas, rancher, contractor and land de
veloper. Mayfield testified that he took a
copy of the conspiracy to retake the
border states from a Mexican revolu
tionist whom he captured. He turned
the papers over to Bishop, who so testi
fied, and they were in turn given over
to Harold for translation. Harold
identified the translations on the stand.
The plan contemplated an Invasion
from Mexico and a simultaneous upris
ing of Mexican residents in the border
states.
Mr. Bishop appeared Indignant at the
way the case was handled and testified
that he resigned as marshal "because
they would not let me. do my duty.'
On cross-examination Attorney Alfred
Lucking of counsel for Mr. Ford, in
connection with the resignation, asked:
"The federal authorities regarded it
as a trivial occurrence, didn't they?"
"Yes, they did," replied the witness
with indignation in his voice.

This is an age of big business, and
although the public has become accus- j
tomed to big figures, the story of the
marvelous growth and development of
Tanlac forms one of the most interest-
ing chapters of America's latter-day '
commercial history.
four years ago very few people had
ever heard of Tanlac Today it un
questionably has the largest sale of
ny medicine in the world, and is as
well known in Canada as In this coun
try. In the brief period of only four
years time this now famous remedy
has leaped from obscurity to the very
pinnacle of success. Its fame, in fact,
has long since spread beyond the lim
its of the continent, and numerous in
quiries regarding it are now . .ing re
ceive; from many foreign countries.
ery lew people, however, fully realise
what a really wonderful record Tanlac
haa made. Indeed, if it were not for
the unquestionable facts and figures
given out by the largest and best-
known drug firms of the country the
story of its success would be hard to
believe.
Up to January 1st the total sales
of Tanlac amounted to approximately
twelve million bottles. The demand,
however, is increasing, for during the
first ten weeks of this year over one
million bottles were sold and distrib
uted in the United States and Canada,
the exact figure being 1.306.1S6 In three
months.
At this rate, therefore, the sales for
the present year will amount to more
than five million bottles. This will
mean that 17.000 bottles of Tanlac will
be sold during every day of the year,
or 2100 bottles for every hour of the
average working day.
These figures are too stupendous for
the average mind to grasp, but one may
visualize what twelve million bottles
means by im. rining them laid out in
a single file end to end. Thus laid they
would make a track of Tanlac from
New. York through Chicago, and on to
Denver, Colo., or they would form a.
double track of Tanlac from the Great

end on end. they would tower 135 times I
as high as Pikes Peak, or rise 13.333
times higher than the Woolworth build
ing In New York, the tallest building in
th world.
The demand for Tanlac has become
so great that itssales, instead of be
ing measured by the gross as other
preparations have been, is now reck
oned by the carload, and even by the
iramioaa. in proof of this it is a
noteworthy fact that even drug job
bers everywhere now buy Tanlac al
most exclusively in carload lots.
lo supply the Pacific coast trade
alone requires from 40 to 60 carloads
per year Jobbers of the middle went
are selling from 70 to 80 cars per year.
One jobbing concern alone, the Evans
Smith Drug company of Kansas City.
Missouri, is selling at the rate of 20
car loads of 24.000 bottles each year.
In a letter dated April 19, Julius M.
Price of that company says: "In fig
uring the amount of Tanlac sold since
taking this agency we find that we are

The well-known drug firm of Hes-sig-EHis
Drug company of Memphis.
Tennessee, nas sold over 40 car loads
since the introduction of Tanlac in that
state four years ago. Mr. R. R. Ellis,
president of that company, is authority
for the statement that the demand for
Tanlac has been greater than any other
fivo medicines combined.
Within the past ninety days ten car
loads of Tanlac have gone to supply
the demand ot British Columbia, Sas
katchewan. Alberta and Manitoba.
Mr. Charles McD. Hay, president of
Lyman Brothers & Company, Limited,
of Toronto, one of the oldest and best
known Jobbing concerns in Canada.
says: "We have handled in Ontario
province. Canada, five carloads of Tan
lac since October, 191$, while our total
purchases have amounted to 12 cars
within the past two years."
The Owl Drug company, the largest
retail druggists on the Pacific coast,
state that they have sold more than
110,000 bottles at retail, which sur
passes the remarkable record of the
Jacobs Pharmacy company of Atlanta,
who have sold approximately SO, 000
Dottles at retail.
These enormous sales mean but one
thing, and that is merit.
Tanlac is widely advertised. It is
true, but such an unprecedented and
raridly growing demand could not be
brought about by advertising alone
