WHAT WOODROW WILSON REALLY THINKS OF LABOR
Woodrow Wilson, candidate, is suddenly posing as a great
friend of labor and a great believer in labor unions.
Woodrow Wilson, before entering national politics, held
decided views on the labor question which do not square with
his professions of today.
Which -Woodrow Wilson will occupy the White House
after the 4th of next March, if the electorate this fall should
confer upon him another term as President? What would be
his attitude toward labor then, When he had no further favors
to ask of the voters?
The labor views of Woodrow Wilson, private-citizen, are
interesting.
On February 213, YM)b at the People's Forum in New Rot
chelle, New York, Mr. Wilson said:
"Labor Unions reward the shiftless and incompetent at
the expense of the able and industrious." -
At the same meeting he further said:
"The objections I have to Labor unions is that they drag
!he highest mun to the level of the lowest. I must demur with
the labor unions when they say, 'You must award the dull the
same as you award those with special gifts.' "

WHERE THE FARMER COMES IN.
(From flie Minneapolis Tribune) v
When "Tama Jim" Wilson, that hard-headed son of Scot
land ays anything about the American farmer, the men of the
soil are quite likely to lake notice. He was 80 years old a
month or so ago. lie began farming fifty-five years ago. He
was in the cabinet of three presidents McKinley, Roosevelt
and Taft as Secretary of Agriculture. It is fair to presume
that one of his years has no ambition to get back into the har
ness of public life.' It is also fair to presume that he speaks
as an unbiased American citizen when he declares that upon
the farmers of this country will fall the great burden of paying
the $o0,()()(),()()0 bill which 'President Wilson and his servile
Congress have passed along to the people with the Adamson
law.
The former cabinet member says that the farmer is willing
to take Ins share of any burden, but adds that he will get a good
deal more than is coming to him in the matter of bill-paying as
a result of the operation of the Adamson act. The railroads
will get the $,"iO,()00,0()0 from the shippers, lies ays, and the
farmers constitute a majority of the shippers. The man who
tills the soil will go down in his-pockets to help pay ten hours'
wages for eight hours' work for that fifth of the railroad em
ployes who are already receiving much higher wages than the
other four-fifths. He will work from sunrise to sunset. No
eight hours limit for the farmer.
"The fanners," said Mr. Wilson, "are unorganized, un
able to restrict their labor to eight hours a day, obliged to sell
the product of their labor at prices 'fixed by the ordinary
influences of supply and demand. It is entirely antagonistic
to their interests to have a small group of men employed by
the railways allowed to fix their pay for carrying the produce
of the country at the cost of the producers and consumers."
To other classes besides the fanners is coming home the.
true import of the Adamson law and the manner of its enact
ment. The electorate is learning that the measure does not
test high in human welfare ingredients, but that it does test
big in political chicanery.
BREWERS' AMENDMENT A MENACE.
The brewers' amendment would ruin the loganberry juice
manufacture; bankrupt the loganberry grower.
It would handicap railway construction.
It would hamper establishment of shipbuilding.
It would be detrimental to logging and sawmilling.
It would compel all business to readjust itself to saloon con
ditions, and brewery-dictated legislation.
It would decrease savings.
It would increase public expense.
It would lessen the amount of our capital for investment.
It would legalize liquor selling to children.
It would permit the establishment of original package sa
loons next to school houses or your own home, no matter where
it is.

In his Heppner speech last night, Dr. Harry Lane, United
States Senator from Oregon drew a touching word picture
as to the terrible conditions in war-scourged Europe. Only
a few minutes before he had pointed with pride to the prosper
ity in this country at the present time and called attention
to the high price our farmers are receiving for wheat. This
is a case where Europe's misery is our glory.

In another column of this paper will be found an article
by S. E. Notson relative to a general road strawing day. His
suggestions are timely and should be followed out with all
speed. That strawing improves a rough road nearly one hun
dred per cent is clearly demonstrated where it has been used
on some portions of our roads.

Brings Results to the Advertiser
Being the fourth of a series of advertising talks by the "Devil."
The Circulation of The Gazette-Times.
That the circulation of The Gazette-Times covers'
the field like a blanket can easily be seen when the
fact is taken into consideration that The Gazette
Times has a circulation of 1200 in a territory of
which the population is not over C000.
t
Advertising experts figure five readers for each
subscriber, so it would not be exaggeration to state
that The Gazette-Times is read by every person in its
field. i
Next week we will give a summary of the former
"talks" and sum up the reasons why The Gazette
Times is the best advertising medium in Moitoav
county. hj
