The Thorns. Orchard.
The orchard of R. Thomaa Is one of
the finest In this part of the country.
This year he has shipped a consider
able amount of "apples and pears and
both art of the flues t quality. This
fruit grower is justly prond of his
peach, pear and a pule trees. He has a
fine lot of large English Walnut trees
but a late frost destroyed the walnuts
this year. This season is the first in
the history of thes trees that tney
have been injured by freezing. Mr.
Thomas is euibnsiaatic for irrigation
for this part of the Rogue River val
ley. He says that water will add (100
value to every acre of good land in
this section and many fruit growers
will be enabled to clean op from $500
to 600 per acre when irrigation be

Labor dy should rank with the 4th
of Jnly a characteristic- American hol
iday. The 4th of July commemorates
the means by which we gained oar in
dependence as a nation, and labor day
commemorates the means by which
we have made our nation the most
powerful the most progressive and the
most prosperous of any in the world.
Today brave hearts of every clime are
beating io unison, and millions of feet
are keeping step in the ownard, op
ward march to industrial liberty.
The toilers are awakened, and con
scious of the truth that sufferiug en
dured are but the labor pains that fore- j
tell the new democracy to be born.
Tli is is the most momeutous day of
all the year to the workers of the
world. Io every civilized country
this is recoguized as labor dav.
thought waves are carryiug aronud
the globe messages of love and en
couragement. The world is my country, man is my
brother, expresses the aublime senti
ment of a world-wide fraternity In
every laud where men and women are
striving under the galling- chains of op
pression. This noble thought quickeus
the soul and kindles the spark of hope
in the breast of the heavy laden. Let
the American oemmoners arouse
themselves I
They have always been the most loyal
and effective guards of freedom io
every crisis of our history I Let them
arouse themselvtsand with tint peace
ful, but poteot Instrument, the ballot,
let them maintain those institutions
of freedom which the fathers pur
chased at Ineffable cost I Let them ex
purgate from official circles, at least,
every vestige of irretentions aria
toctacy I Let them wipe from the
statute books every grsnt of special
privilege) Let them own and operate
through their government, every vari
ety of pub lo utility in the nature of
monopoly I Let them decapitate the
iron breeding bank trust, and am
putate tbe robber tariff. But let ns
cons der the doctrine of equality in
another relatioo.
The fathers pronounced for the
qual ty of citizenship in respect to
military service. Tbey were opposed
to a separate military clars io the
republic. They dreaded the establish
ment of professional soldiery. They
knew from their reading and their ex
perience . what wwi wait upon a
oountry where every adult civilian Is
compelled to carry a soldier on his
back. They knew that a standing
army always finally means war; that
war means debt ; that debt means the
separation tf -the people into bread
winners and bondholders; and that
the equilibrium of society once un
settled by the erection of a military
:las tends towards a further diidoca
tlon. Hence they were oue aud all, op
