He suggests Its usefulness for the lumber and wheat industries but Is un certain as to what relief or protection It wofildglve the fruit Industry of his own section of the state. Both gentle men were interviewed this morning In regard to their attitudes on the question of. rate-regulation and both mad state ments. , Tavors Bailroad legislation. 'rXt you in favor of legislation era. ating a stats railroad commission with full power to provide for regulation of railroad rates and tha correction of rail road abuses jracttocdNby-the railroads in business done In the state Mr. Davey mas asked and he answered: "I am in favor of any reasonable legislation that would remove as nearly as possible every reason the people now have) for .thinking that th railroad can practice abuses with Impunity. . I think the helplessness which tha people of Oregon feel is perhaps the most prollfio cause of complaint and trouble. A good law, prescribing the rights of the ship pers and at th same time inflicting no unreasonable burdens on the common carrier, la much needed. "A. railroad commission, backed by such a law, plain and authoritative, baa THREE UNION LABELS; OR -NO ; - f SEAT IN THE CONVENTION An interesting featur of th Stat Tederatioifof Labor convention, not -previously pubHshed".-wa tha work of th label examination committee. Every one of th 47 delegates was compelled to submit to a search of his person, a search much like that of a spy who has fallen into th hands of th enemy L-swsu and on woman, were assigned to the work of going through their feuow : unionists' clothes in a hunt for , the union label. ' ' After examining on another's cloth ings tha committee divided ' Into . two, sections. . Miss Lucy White, th woman delegate composed on eectlon-t-a com mute of on to ascertain whether or not the fiv other women iB-attendanc could pass tha label test. Th four men went for th mala '.delegate. .

But If th product of a boycotted firm were found upon blm, he was to b drummed out of oamp forthwith and not given a chance to redeem himself. Members of th label , examination committee declare that not a single delegate waa found to deserve th drum-mlng-out process. - On th other hand, there were several who were discovered to be tagged with aa many as 10 label a Hat,- shoe, cost. "vest, trousers, shirt, collar, cuffs and underclothing were all found to have th union label either sewed - or pasted upon sotne part of them.

While - a-railroad company can flgur with comparative aoeuraoy th sura nec essary to reimburse it for th loss of a freight ear for any number of days. It Is Impossible to tell , in advance th loss which a shipper may sustain by reasoa of inability to reach the intended market for his product -at th proper time. A moment's thought on ths gen eral character of Oregon's principal ar ticles of shipment will illustrate this, Whether th right kind of a reciprocal demurrage law can bo shaped is th great question. v Bee Zws ireeded. . , "Ar you in favor of th general pro visions laid down In th bill which has been ' prepared by tha transportation committee of tha Portland Chamber of Commerce, and which will -a presented to the legislature, for consideration and enactment into law T" waa th last ques tion asked of Mr. Davey. . He said: "I have not studied tha bill referred Clearance Sales This Month 364-70 East Morrison St. I believe with an intelligent comparison of ideas, based upon the experience in other states and th knowledge of our own conditions, th present legislature will not disappoint the people," Mr. Vawter was asked th same three questions and In answer to the first hs said: "I am In-favor of 'th oreation of a railroad commission, giving th mem bars largo and discretionary powers in tha- regulation -of rates -and correction of arm see. Tne-meTnbrs of tier cow mission should - be appointive and in addition to a knowledge of .railroad law! two of th - members should . havs - a technical knowledge . of rat making and tha operation of railroads." In answer to the second question as to whether. .or not he would support a reciprocal demurrage provision Mr. Vawter said: "I think so, but before giving a defi nite answer I should want to Investi gate th workings of reciprocal demur rag in other states, if any, where such laws exist. Reciprocal demurrage might benefit the lumber and wheat shippers and o entirely unavailing in giving protection to th fruitgrower." In response ' to th third question. wnetner or not he would vote for tha bill prepared by th ohamberof com merce, Mr. Vawter said: "Yes, unless soma smendmenta are offered which In my Judgment increase the emciency of the proposed law.

"For two years I was thin and sickly, suffering from Indigestion and inflammatory rheumatism. "I had tried different kinds of diet, plain living, and many of the remedies recommended, but got no better.
