THE RIGHTS OF MAN.
It id the privilege of any man
if his employment does not suit
him to abandon , it. No one will
question this, statement, nor is
there anywhere a disposition
to force a man to do that to
which lie objects, without he be
employed at convict labor.
. No employer denies the privi
lege of quitting- to an employe.
But as the employer pays the
Mil, it is natural that he si&olil
slaim the privilege of setting te
;rice on the labor performed,
le knows what it is worth to
him. He also knows what his
business will permit him to pay
for men whom he may employ.
There "is scarcely ever a time
when in some large business cen
ter of the United States there is
not a labor strike on tapis. This
is the results of unions more
than from any other cause. The
unions have bosses and "walking
delegates" and these breeders of
trouble have to raise the mischief
now and again ', to prove their
importance to the various mem
bers of the union which they are
supposed to furnish brains for.
A great strike is now on in
Chicago and as usual, the strikers
resort to brute force in enforcing
their demands. Force has never
proved anything to be right. An
unjust principle, policy,condition
or administration may be' 'forced' '
upon av people, but it may be a
great wrong just the same.
The price of labor like every
thing else marketable, is govem-
ed by that well-known law "sup
ply and demand." It may work
in one of two ways, or in both.
The wage scale is made out in ae
cordance with the number of men
required and available, capable
of performing a certain duty.
The second factor in regulating
the scale of wages is the demand
for the product of this labor,
The hardest feature connected
with striking unions is the fact
, that those who quit their job act
as though they still owned it, " or
had a right to it. After they
have vacated, they play "doggie
m the manger. " It was not
good enough position for them,
but no other shall accept it though
he need it ever so badly, Should
a fellow dare accept a position
thrown up by a unionist on
strike, his life may be the for
feit.
This is damnable ! This is un
worthy free America! Let
man quit if he wants to do so
but let another man accept what
the first man scorns. For all the
damage done to business, to in
dividuals, the general public, the
violence and crime enacted, for
the loss of life itself, there is
rarely anything like a just ac
counting on the part of any of a
gang of rioters, rebellious strik
ers. XX -vX ; - 'v.'
.(
It is a matter of fact that . the
majority of strikes occur during
prosperous times. During " 'pan
icky' periods men cannot afford
to strike. If any sympathize
with the average striking mob
let them ponder on the inhumani
ty of a strike carried to such
length as compells a husband ; to
ride on a hearse with a rifle in his
handa while going to the ceme-
t2ry to bury his wife. And yet
this has happened, and in Chica
go, too. Do you think the world
is getting better fast? ;
Capital is organized and labor
has the same privileges. ? This is
no denial of the right of organ
ized labor to strike, but is against
the violence that usually attends
such proceedings, as - other poor
r men, not the rich, are the suffer
ers. Take The Gazette for all the
the local news. . x . , - . . v.
Sons of Veterans.
The organization ' known by
the above title is composed, as
the name indicates, of sons and
lineal descendants of the veter
ans of the war of 1861-5.' It, is
composed at the present time of
about 30,000 loyal members, and
it should be a' million strong.
The organization is entirely un
selfish, the members have noth
ing ' to gain personally, as they
are organized to assist the veter
ans in any way . possible in their
declining years; to assist in
properly celebrating. Memorial
clay, and to teach patriotism- by
their acts. In tnese times when
people are searching records to
trace themselves back to the
revolutionary war, it' would be
weli for the sons and lineal male
descendants of Union soldiers of
the rebellion to organize camps
ot sons of veterans in every com -
Si'inity in the land. They have
the grandest heritage of all. and
taey should appreciate it. -
A renewal of interest in thi?
organization seems to have taken
place all over the United States
and it is hoped that our state and
our.city will not be behind others
and that a camp will be organiz
ed here.
An Open River.
aome time ago the Benton
Connty Citizen's League and sis
ter leagues m Independence, Sa-
em and Albany took up the mat
ter of improvenents on the Up
per Willamette river. In the en
deavor to accomplish this the as
sistance of the Portland Chamber
of Commerce was enlisted. The
O.X. T. Company gave valuable
assistance m the work.
Yesterday morning word reach
ed this city to the effect that the
United States dredger, the Math-
loma. has been ordered by Ma
jor Langfitt to proceed to Coaval-
hs this week and prepare for
active operations. Formerly it
was the intention to begin below
and work f up stream, but upon
representations made and the able
assistance given the matter at the
recent convention of the Ore
gon Development League in Port
land it was concluded .to begin at
this city and work down. "."
This is splendid and. our peo
ple have occasion to feel thank
ful, as they are . now : practically
assured an open river the year
around. , ...X ' ,
Citizens of this city have a right
to be proud of the evidences of im

pains through the groins. I suf
fered terribly at the time of men--sferuation,
had blinding headaches
and rushing of blood to the brain.
What to try I knew not, for it
seemed that I had tried all and
failed, but I had never tried Wine
of Cardui, that blessed remedy for
sick women. 1 found it pleasant
to take and soon knew that I had
the right medicine. ; New blood
seemed to course through my veins
and after using eleven bottles
was a well woman. .XX v

health because she took Wine of

failed to bring her relief. Any
sufferer may secure health by tak
ing Wine of Cardui in her home.
The first bottle convinces the pa
