! Hayes ;of. Ohio - Says Political
; 'Action, Not Direct Action, Is
Way.to Win.
(0n!td Pren Leimed Wire.)
Seattle, Wash., Nov, 21. John W.
Mitchell has been offered sufficient
support to elect Jitm' president of the
n American Federation of Labor In place
. or Samuel Gompers, according to dele
gates of the United Mine Workers who
. are urging & change in the federation
. control.
T Mitchell has thus far declined to say
.-; whether he will be a candidate.
.. Passage by congress of bills provid
ing for employment by the government
on government projects, of the unem
'k ployed, and the passage of laws for pen
v stoning the unemployed under some
- reasonable system, were urged in a
resolution adopted today.
Resolutions were adopted indorsing a
Campaign, for the organization of em
? ployes of the Standard Oil company, the
Mergan thaler Linotype company, and
for a special campaign of organization
in all lines in New York city.
Boutin Business. -
The morning session was taken up
with consideration of routine business
of the federation. It is expected that
; consideration of the electrical workers'
controversy will be taken up late today.
A building devoted entirely to an ex
hibit by ye American Federation of
Labor, or half of a building devoted to
an exhibit on sociology ut the Panama
Pacific exposition will be asked for by
a committee of the federation which Is
' going to San Francisco at the close of
the convention here.
Max S. Hayes, the Ohio delegate to
the American Federation of Labor, de
' clared the Industrial Workers of the
'World to be the worklngman's foe In
I the Ufllted States, during a debate at
I. W. W. headquarters last night.
A. P. of X.. Is Open.
' Hayes showed the A. F. of L. Is open
to all kinds of unskilled labor and de
clared that the I. W. W. Is organized on
'a wrong basis.
"Forget this tommyrot about sabotage
! and direct action," he said. "Vou will
only get a mob to follow you for a
short -time under such a doctrine. The
only way to win is through political
action.
"Bill Haywood had one of the bright-1
est futures of any man in the labor
i rank. If he had stayed with us the
reactionaries In the A. F. of L. might
not now be in power. He chose to go
with the I. W. W. and now 1iis race is
almost run."
INCOME TAX LAW
WILL BE EXPLAINED
Chief Deputy Collector Miles
to Devote Entire Time to
Matter,
banks. corporatloiiM and Individuals
alS seem to bo dazed by tbe many intri
cacies of the income tax which becomes
operative March 1, 13H. Being an en
tirely new departure in American taxa
tion "from a national standpoint and
without precedents, many phases and
joints of the act are as yet lincon
;rued and without final ruling as to
tueir meaning.
To' nsstsr The p
revenue district which will have charge
of the collection of the tax In Oregon.
Nlicnnan Miles, recently appointed chief
deputy collector under Milton A. Miller,
has been delegated to devote his entire
attention to the new tax..
Inquiries are coining from all part
rf the state as to the workings of th .'
law affecting corporations and especlal-
,ly the collection of Income at its source.
Technical questions upon which the lo.
cal office Is unable to express an opin
ion are sent to William. If. Osborn, com
missioner of internal revenue, at Wash
ington, for an official ruling.
The word "source" which has proved
somewhat of a 'puzzler lias been OeflneJ
by the commissioner, lie fays: 'Source,
as uscvl in the income tax hill, should
bo construed .as referring to the place
Where Income originates."

showed some "encouragement this after
noon at Good Samaritan hospital. His
heart action is being stimulated with
strychnine, though he is still uncon
scious much of the time.
Colonel ECiy has had a long and va
ried experience in the -west. Though
he was born in England, he came to
the region west of the Rockies, where
lie found life of the rough and ruggel
type. As. publisher of a newspaper in
Nevada while still In. his late teens, ha
got the "back-to-the-land" Idea an I
later moved to Oroirnn whnfA ! a f-' -
In Umatilla county for a time. His po
litical aspirations won him a position
as deputy sheriff, which he served for
several terms. He was Interested In the
Pendleton Tribune for a time before his
appointment to the sheriffs office. Not
a few desperadoes felt his clutch and
it was thus that he acquired a rough
and ready manner which made him on
of the best of Judges of human nature
It was under Captain Martin that h
got this Iron handed experience.
Tiring of this career, however, Col
onel Eddy later found his way to thj
upper Willamette valley, where, as ed
itor of a paper at Roseburg, he renewed
his Journalistic pursuits. His political
influence secured for him the post of
reading clerk in the legislature for
several terms and later he became a
member of the old railway commission.
He was retained in this office until the

time on, which has been 15 years.

Colonel Eody was placed at the head
of the O.-W. R. & N. tax and right of
way department.
a reoent question: "Should banks with
hold the tax of one per cent on notes
presented to them for collection?" th'!
commissioner has ruled that the person
who makes the notq and pays the inter
est is the source not the collection
agent.
That banks and trust companies and
other banking institutions receiving d--poits
of money are not required to
withhold at source normal tatc of one
per cent on Interest paid to their de
positors, is another recent construction
of the law.
Banks are also not to withhold tax
on Interest on payable obligations of
state, county, city or other political
subdivisions. Such obligations are hel.l
by the bureau of internal revenue to be
exempt.

Years of Experience
In the Optical Liner
does not mean that the Optometrist
has been advancing nil the time, lie
may have retrograded.
In tlio last five years the optical
business lias entirely changed.
Kryptoks. Tories. Finger Tiece
Mountings were only In their In
fancy. The rvllndor machine for stnall
shops was more or less an experi
ment. Hut now all these things have be
come a reality, and numerous otlt
improvements have roliowea so
closely that It ts necessary to make
a continuous study of Optometry to
be up to date.
' In my 13 years of optical practice
I have kept abreast of all modern
Ideas.
I have absolutely the best and
most complete testing appliances to
be had.
I have the largest and most com
plete optical shop in the city at my
command, which carries all different
kinds of lenses, mountings, etc.
I positively keep up to date on all
the modern ideas of testing used by
all optical colleges.
The mechanical part conies oniy, by
years of experience, and that only
when the party has niechurucai
genius.
I have thp mechanical ability and
am at all times training to make my
self more proficient in my profes
sion. I recommend the Kryptok and
Torlc lenses combined with a fln
gerplece mounting as the best on
the market for eye relief.
