"New, I made the statement in my
last communication that Mr. Dixon
and his coworkers, would not permit
of organization of labor; I said that
he had a group of what is commonly
railed 'stoolies.' who would inform on
any one bo agitating; Is it not possi
ble to secure the signature of such
characters? And I would like to know
further why should it have been neces

i so conscientious in their efforts to
1 give to the workers decent conditions
'and a living wage, for them to have
even accepted a statement signed by
these men prior to any charges having

"We went to work at 7 o'clock in thfe
morning." he said, "and worked to
noon. We had one hour at noon, and
worked from 1 o'clock to 6 o'clock.
Then we had 30 minutes for supper,
and had to return to the mill and work
until 9 o'clock at night, making a to
tal of hours a day of work. For
this work J received 15 cents an hour.
"We were forced to board at the
company's boarding house, where we
were charged $5.25 a week for board.
"I had worked- since 1882 in Wiscon
sin, Minnesota arid Montana at all
kinds of lumbering, and the board that
was furnished us at the Booth lumber
camp was the worst I had ever seen in
20 years ot experience. The food was
where even i either raw or half cooked, or burned
black, and was almost uneatable. The
meat was the oldest and toughest stuff
I ever saw put before a man to eat."
Mr. Dusenberry said he stood the
fare offered at the Booth camp as long
as he could, and then quit. He said
many of the men employed at the. mill
told him they had come from the mid
dle western and eastern states, and
were buying stump land from the com
pany, and therefore had to put up with
whatever the company gave them.
J. B. S.'s charges call forth a warm
je t or a He'onil letter on the subject
from "J. It. S" of CorvaUis. who re
cently ufhI Mr. Booth of exploit
ing his employes for his own personal
ga ins.
The ('oryallis man's earlier charges
were aDKvv'e.ed in part in a statement
made by A. c Dixon, the present man-as'-r
of the liooth-Kclly Lumber com
pany, in .Sunday's Oregonian.
The Journal has the full name of
".I. f! S ," but as he is a working man
dependent upon steady employment
for h II v( I ihood, he docs not desire it
pub! i.'h d. In .i letter answering .Mr.
Dixon he reiterate; his previous state
ments as, to the 'inadequacy of the ac
commodations furnished the men and
,!-sert. that in 1S1" Mr. Booth dis
i harced American laborers in favor of
forinrs een though it was in th
middle of winter.
He 'writes:
"In Sunday's issue of the 'OreRonian'

is to blame, doing thereby the 'Man
Friday act.' But a few days ago I
read in the Oregonian wherein it was
said that Mr. Booth attended to even the
minutest details of Ids business; but,
however, we workers who understand
these things will not only attach the
blame on you, Mr. Dixon, but also in
November on our old friend (7) Mr.
Saintly Booth. t hope this will hold
Mr. Dixon for a while, but if he makes
j any more ovitDreaKs. we nave more
ammunition on hand.''
Jn the measure, a. corroborator of "J.
B. S." is C. H. Dusenberry, 225 Fifth
street, who wa employed at the Wend
ling mill of the Booth-Kelly Lumber
defense of Mr. Booth's treatment of his
men from M. J. Skinner of C62 Twelfth
avenue, east, Eugene, who was a fore
man for the Booth-Kelly Lumber com
pany in 1899. Mr. Skinner writes in
part: '
Ex-Foreman Defends Booth.
"Some of the .statements J. B. S.
makes in regard to employes of the
Booth-Kelly Lumber company are not
true, and are either from one grossly
misinformed" or are willful, malicious
lies, and in order to more fully bring
before the people who have not been
employed by said company, the facts,
I will state my own experience with
them.
Vln 1899 I was living in Coburg.
where a sawmill was "being operated
part of the time, paying common labor
$1.25 per day, but never having a pay
day. I have known employes who re
ceived checks on Eugene banks for $5
and J10 due in 30 to 60 days. On May
6, 1899, the Booth-Kelly Lumber com
pany, R. A. Booth (better known as
"Bob") being then manager, took an
option on said mill, -which immediately
started up steady at a wage of $1.50
per day and paying every month. In a
very short time wages were increased
to $2 and $2.25 per day. I was em
ployed as foreman on their log drive at
this time. I was given a time book
and told to keep my expense account
and set my own wages, which I con
tinued to do for a number of years.
. "Men under me drew $3 and $3.50
per day and their board, and in some
instances more. I very distinctly re
member when we finished a drive at
the head of the Coburg race, Mr. Kelly,
then superintendent, said: 'Bob (mean,
ing Mr. Booth) said it has been bad
weather, and if you want to you can
pay the men 50 cents per day more,'
making $3.50 and $4 per day and their
board. I wrote their time checks out
for that amount.
"Bob" Flayed Fair.
"Now, mind you, the drive was fin
ished, and the men who follow that
business, as a rule, travel from one
river to another, many of them we
never expected to see again.
"Being able from the wages I drev
from said company to save a little
money. I bought a piece of land near
Coburg. In due course of time 1 de
cided to sell same. There being a
slough on the land, and thinking possi
bly some one might come into posses
sion of the land .who would imagine he
was being damaged on account of wa
ter being in the slough, I told Mr.
Booth if he would send the county sur
veyor over and survey off the said
slough, I would deed it to the com
pany, which in a few days he did. I
made the company out a deed to same,
and sent it to them at Eugene. In a
few days Mr. Booth called me up by
telephone and asked me what I wanted
for that land. I told him that was all
right, as I didn't expect anything. He
said: "Where do you do your banking,
at the First National bank?" I replied,
'Yes.' In a few days I got a certifi
cate of deposit from said bank for
$250. In the course of a few months
I sold the remaining land at $100 per
acre to a private individual. Mr. Booth,
having heard of this, deposited $76
more in the bank to my credit, as the
slough I had deeded the company con
tained three anj one third acres.
"Docs this show the fairness of 'Bob'
or not? I will leave It for you to de
cide. "In "J. B. S.'s' letter he refers to the
present tinre, under the management
of A. C. Dixon; saying, 'Does Mr.
Booth know?" I will make only this
statement: If any man will come to
Lane county and consult with em
ployes of the Booth-Kelly Lumber
company what I mean my employes
is men when they put a peavy into the
log who will have both eyes on the
log; not one eye on the whistle and
the other on the sun they will get
statements similar to the above from
hundreds of employes."
REMEDIAL LOAN MUST
HAVE MORE MONEY TO
EXTEND GOOD WORK
( Continued from Page One.)
and are making their money to sup
Iort the splendid and useful work of
the Remedial Loan association. If
properly supported this organization
will drive the real loan sharks who
prey on the weak and unfortunate out
of business.
Situation Xs Critical.
"The money we have out is in
small loans, ranging from $20 to $100.
Most of the loans range from $20 to
$50. For years we have been saying
to the clerk and the workingman, 'Be
a homeowner. Sare rent by baying
a home. It will make you a better
citizen.'
"Today there are hundreds of work
in gmen and men on a salary who are
out of work. These men have bought
homes on the installment plan. Un
less they can secure a small loan,
they will be unable to meet their in
stallments and will lose the savings
of years. Are we going to see these
thrifty and industrious home owners
lose their all? If we do, we will re
gret it.
"We can not shirk our responsibil
ity. We have a duty in the matter.
If they lose their home they will say
What's the use. We have lost out'
and they will Join the growing class
of agitators who increase the present
social discontent. Some of them will
drift into crime and their families be
come a charge upon the public.
"If you were on the riverbank and.
saw a boat overturned and the occu
pants struggling in the water you
would certainly throw them a rope, if
you had one. If the well-to-do men of
Portland, those who can well afford it,
refuse to give help to those who
through no fault of their own are out
of work and In desperate need they
will be shirking their plain duty as
good citizens.
Remedial Xoan Only Recourse.
"Bread and potatoes and soup bones
may not cost much. but they are
pretty high-priced to the man who lias
no money. When a man is out of
work and has only a few dollars he
must choose between eating and pay
ing the installment on his home. H-
is going to eat and see that his wife
and children have food. He must let
the installment on his home go.
"If the Remedial Loan Association
can step in risht here and heip him
keep up the payments on his home,
taking ample security for their loan,
it may mean the difference between
keeping him a homeowner, a good cit
izen, a wage earner and a patron of
our Industries, or turning him out a
social outcast, a drifter and a mal
content. "He has two places to call upon.
The Remedial Loan. Association or the
loan sharks. The banks will not ac
cept pledges, take chattel mortgages
nor make small loans. If he goes to
the loan shark within a year he has
paid more in interest than tie face of
the loan and still owes the original
rum. He is in their power and thera
is no escape from their clutches.
"Most men' want to pay their debts.
Few men are intentionally dishonest.
A loan at a time of need sometimes
saves a soul alive. It means the re
taining of one's self-respect and char
acter. ICan SaTed From Disgrac..
"Just the other day a young man
working for one of our public service
corporations loaned some money to a
friend who was in need. " He used
money from the funds in his charge
to accommodate his friend. His friend
failed to return the money when prom
ised. "The auditor checked up tLe ac
counts, discovered the KhortaK-- and
gave him three days to replace the
money or face the penitentiary on a
charge ot embezzlement. He came to
the officials of the Remedial Loan as
sociation. "No funds were available, so the
officials of the Remedial Loan laned
him the money on a secured note,
charging no interest. He returned the
rrfbney in monthly installments. He had
his lesson. Was not that better than
bringing disgrace upon himself and his
family by sending him to prison?
"Last week a woman came to us. A
mortgage was about to be foreclosed.
She had bought the furniture of a
rooming house .for $15O0. She had
paid $aao at the time of purchase
and given a mortgage for $500 on the
goods. She had paid $300 more, so
that she still owed $'00. She could
not meet the payment when it came
due and was going to lose rhe $1300
she had put in. It was the savings

First. I will say that the hinkhouse
nt Wendliti was the best of all their
burjkhouses. He says it cost $7000. I
would like to know what system they
use to get those figures, hut even
charging market prices for the lum
ber, pip.-, labor, ete., for an X0 room
hotel, tint isn't so much. Yes, they
have steam heat bevause they either
h4d to have it or provide stoves and
wood and that would certainly he more
expensive. locs he think that we do
not understand that the workers must
have facilities to dry their clothes
after being out in Oregon rains? He
also lays gtcat stress upon the three
s'howei-haths. Why shouldn't there be
at least thro:- showcibaths for about
Son men?
"Also. I .should not overlook such
rjeal consideration as they show by
having tubs for laundry. But I, for
one, would not deny Mr. 1'ixon these
. grvat privileges could it be possible
o to do. Klectric light? Yes, they
bave a few lights, but just let them
bo lit after certain hours and we all
knew that someone was asleep at thi
switch ' as !.::( was the hour and no
) one could read alter that hour; pcr
hups we might get a little too wise.
Woman Made Beat of It. '
"Als.l, let me ay that every on-.-who.
was not married could not get out
of paying that bunkhouse fee whether
he desired to stay with someone else or
not. The bunkjiouscs up the line in
my time were not portable, double
painted, etc. They were nothing but
long rows of nhacks painted red.
"Now, Mr. Dixon speaks at some
length with regard to those shacks
along their road. 1 well renumber
upon one occasion when a worker was
moving his family up to live. There
was the father, mother and a little gill
upon the work train with their furni
ture; also a coiiHe of chickens. We
started from Wendling and finally
reached the shack where they were set
down together with their furniture, to

"In tears the woman looked about
and regarded the house with something
bordering on fear, but with the re
assurance of the man she finally got
courage enough to venture inside. Up
on our return that evening 1 .saw that
womprt sadly but heroically making
the hesl of it. Kconomic necessity
had had it's way.
"Oh yes, Mr. Dixon, we realize the
summer excursions that are spent in
those jiliat-ks. It is one continual
round of pleasure, toiling and produc
ing profits for Mr. Booth.
"We- tilso realize, Mr. Dixon, that
'when there is no longer timber on the
hills these shucks of the camps, to
gether with the camps, arc abandoned."
