REASON WHY LABOR MLX
SHOCLI) NOT JOIX.
Letter Sent in Reiily to Question
as to Federation's Attitude
Toward Organization.
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., March 16.
Personal indorsement of the Ameri
can Legion by Samuel Gompers. pres-
ident of the American Federation of
Labor is contained in a letter from
Mr. Gompers to J. B. Wilkin, secre-
ary of the unn labor council of
Needles, Cai.. according to an article
printed recently in the Needles Nug
get, a copy of which has been re
ceived here. The letter, it is stated.
was written in answer to a question
from Mr. Wilkin, as to the attitude of
Mr. Gompers and the American Fed-
ration of Labor toward the legion.
Mr
Gompers' letter is quoted as
follows:
'The American Federation of Labor
as not made any declaration regard-
ng the American Legion, but speak-
for myself. 1 cannot see any rea-
on why ex-service men. whether
members of organised labor, or not
members of organized labor, should
ot join the American Legion.
When I was in New York city re
cently, -Mr. Franklin D'OIIer. national
ommander of the American Legion,
sked for a conference Willi me. which
of course, readily granted, at which
,e discussed the general subject-mat
er of the legion. He very greatly
eprecated that acts and declarations
a few men. members of the, legion.
hould be accepted or credited with
representing the American Legion
and that for which it stands, any
more than the organized labor move
ment should be held responsible for
any overt act of aity one of its mem
bers. His declaration to mo during
the conference as regards the attitude
of the American Legion toward or
ganized labor was practically the
same as the statement which he gave
to the press on January 7."

Whole-Hearted Support of Trcas
ury Savings Movement Is Sought
by Secretary.
WASHINGTON. March 16. In a per
sonal appeal sent to the heads of 30,
000 financial institutions. Secretary
Houston today sought the co-operation
of the bankers in the treasury
savings movement The prosperity
and welfare of the nation, he said,
was dependent on thrift, economy and
saving. Bank officials were asked to
give whole-hearted support to distri
bution of thrift and saving stamps
and certificates as "an effective and
patriotic service."
Secretary Houston said the move
ment was on a "firm and permanent
basis."
"Aside from the fact that the pro
ceeds from the sales of securities will
assist in serving the cash require
ments of the treasury," he continued,
"the movement is of the very essence
of fundamental economies, affording
a tangible means of combating high
prices and extravagance and the ills
that fdllow In their train."

"Cnconsclons Conspiracy of 1918'
Is Explanation of Charges
of Election Fraud.
GRAND RAPIDS, Mich., March 1.
Only patriotic motives, according to
arguments of the defense, Impelled
the 83 Newberry election conspiracy
trial defendants to enter into what
James O. Murfln, chief counsel, today
told the Jury was "the unconscious
conspiracy of 19111."
Mr. Murfin said that "as a thought
for overnight" he would let the jury
ponder "whether a man can uncon
sciously become a party to a criminal
conspiracy." Previously he-had said:
'I am here fighting for the vindica
tion of Truman H. Newberry. If he
were charged with spending or caus
ing to be spent more money than the
law allows, I would not waste my
breath or your time. But he and the
other men arc charged not with that
offense, but with being conspirators, I
with working subterraneously in the
dark with vile hearts and unclean
minds. .
"It is humanly incredible that a
man with Truman H. Newberry's rec
ord of service in the Spanish-American
war. with his honorable record
in the cabinet of President Roosevelt,
and who with his brother and two
sons again offered ills life to his
country in this last war. should, while
in the naval service, plot to destroy
those very institutions which he was
pledged to defend with his life blood.
Snch a man can not all at once be
come a crook.
"Nor was there in the United States
senatorship anything to prompt his
ambition. When a man has been in
the cabinet of the greatest Ameri
can of our history, associated with
Elihu Root. William H. Taft and
others of their stamp, the United
States senatorship, honorable as it is.
is as distinctly a step backward as
it would be for Judge Sessions to
leave the bench in this tribunal to
preside over a police court.
"When Henry. Ford announced his
candidacy on June 14, 1918. Chateau
Thierry had not been fought. Belleau
Wood was not. a part of our history
and the Argonne forest was unheard
of. Those were dark days, and it
was no wonder that the voters of
Michigan rallied then to a militant
American instead of to a non-militant
candidate." "

"Finis" will soon be written for the
Non-partisan league In North Dakota
and its four-year period of misman
agement and dreams will come to an
end at the forthcoming primary elec
tion In June and the general election
in December, In tne belief of F. L.
Irish, prominent banker of Fargo, a
tireless worker in the fight against
Townley and the Non-partisan league.
Mr. Irish, who was at the Benson
hoTel yesterday, on a visit to Portland
and othef Pacific coast cities, ex
pressed the belief that the voters of
North Dakota have at last awakened
to a realization of the damage
wrought by the Non-partisan league,
and are now ready to repudiate it and
its leader by use of the ballot.
"They have brought shame and dis
grace to our state," he said. "They
have increased ' our taxes to a point
where their easiest dupe the farmer
-'can stand it no longer; they have
tried to make their socialistic dreams
come true by way of legislation which
has done nothing but harm to the
state. They have taken about enough
rope to hang themselves, and their
end is near."
Promises Not Fulfilled.
Mr. Irish explained that the Non
partisan league is fast losing strength
with the men who made it possible.
Its leaders made many alluring prom
ises to the farmers three and four
years ago to gain their support, but
these, he said, have all failed of ful
fillment.
"I honestly believe that the senti
ment in North Dakota at the present
time is so strong against the league
that a reunited republican party can
sweep the state," he said. "The peo
pie generally have come to a realiza
tion that unless a new deal can be
given, this organization may bank
rupt the state. They have done their
best in this respect, but through suits
in the United States supreme etiurt
we have temporarily blocked some of
their outrageous bond issues and
other methods of putting the state
actual bondage."
In tracing the history of the Non
partisan movement, Mr. Irish said th
growth and strength of the organiza
tion was due, in part, to the short
sighted policy of the legislature a few
years ago.
"The farmers came down to the leg
islature and asked for an appropria
tion for a terminal elevator," he said.
The legislature told them to go on
back to the farm and mind the hogs
and crops and they would take care
of the state. Naturally, the farmer
went back with his neck bowed, and
was just ripe for the plucking when
Townley came into the state and
bought up all the Fords he could
find for his organizers and soap-box
orators. Townley a crowd told th
farmers the only way they could ex
pect to get anything was to organize
and e,lect themselves to all the offices
In the state. Then he proceeded to
line up organized labor with the dis
gruntled farmers, and' the ascendancy
of the Non-partisan league was the
result.
"But after getting into power, they
went altogether too strong. It isn't
the farmers so much as the long
haired agitators from outside who are
responsible for the present sorry con
dition of affairs. These long-haired
boys have been waxing fat with their
big salaries and easy Jobs, and the
farmers, with their excessive taxes,
have been helping to pay the bill.
Admission Fee Charged.
"Townley charged each farmer $16
for membership in his league, and
after paying this money it was only
natural that the farmer should string
along with his bet as far as he could
go. It is a North Dakota eaying that
it takes 'tl6 and no sense' to be a
non-partisan.
"The state bank which the non
partisans established costs about $12,
000 a month to operate and the funds
of the state lie idle in the institution.
Instead of loaning out funds on farm
mortgages as it is supposed to do,
it is just holding the money without
bearing interest. I believe it has
made no more than 100 loans, al
though thousand of applications have
been received from the farmers."
Mr. Irish gave warning to the peo
ple of Oregon that the Non-partisan
league is at the present time making
a determined offort to capture the
political power of this state. He said
they had expert organizers in this
section at the present time making
farm-to-farm canvasses among all the
rural communities.
"And I want to tell you people that
it behooves you to stop this move
ment at its very inception or you are
apt to wake up eome fine morning
alter the votes have been counted
and find yourselves controlled by this
outfit," he said.
