PA CIFIC TRIED TO DRAW TTIEM INTO SYMPATHETIO STRIKE BY REPRESENTINa S. , P. COMPANY AS BEING UNFAIR. ' The following circular letter Is Issued by the officers of the Southern Pacific Company, explain ins the lattere posi tion In the threatened strike by the Loliermakers, recently: The threatened sympatbetic strike of tle bollermakers now under, considera tion Is due to a misunderstand! ns; of the Issues Involved In the strike of a year or so ago on the Union Pacific, coupled with fear of an Intention to force the extension of piece work. We therefore think the matter should be explained beyond chance of further misconstruction. -' - About a year ago the bollermakers on the Union Pacific struck for a 10 per cent increase In wages and certain shop rules which had nothing whatever to do with the question of piece pr premium work, as that subject was never at any time mentioned or hinted st, and never could have been intro duced on that road but for the strike. The increase In wages was declined, as the Union Pacific wa already; payihg from 7 to liper cent more than any of its neighbors and the adoption of the proposed rules Would have placed the administration of Its shop, affairs In the hands of its employes. Follow ing the strike new men were employed, new, locomotives bought, and the shop operations of that road after & short nfilfe resumed their normal character. Ever since, efforts have been made to draw the shop employes of the South-, ern Pacific Company Into a sympathet ic strike by insisting that the Southern Pacific' was assisting' the Union Pacific by loaning or selling locomotives. As our shopmen are perfectly sitlsflel with their treatment, rate of pay nnd working; rules, we were careful to do nothing that could remotely be con strued as aiding or assisting the Union Pacific. Therefore, they have absolute ly no grounds for stopping work. As explained in telegraphic circulars, the first notice received by the company was given by the chairman of the Boil ermakers committee who, on the 6th of May. showed the general superinten dent of motive power a telegraphic or der from the president of the Boiler makers Union at Kansas City, in structing' the men to stop work on the Hth. ; The agreement between the boiler makers on the Pacific system and tne company requires thirty days notice from either .party, to the other of a de sire(o? chancre the relations established tl erehy. . ,trThe committee claimed 'that potice had been served on the division master, mechanics on April 8th. but if Inquiry f 0r was shown to not have been. (he, .ease, and In conference with the committee they admitted that a mistake had been made In not so do ing. M We have been given to understand that two reasons existed for Issuing the older to the Southern Pacific boiler makers: . i First. Because the Southern Pacific hod helped the Union Pacific by trans ferrins locomotives, and, second, that it wps feired thnt piece-work, prejudi cial to the men. was to be extended to the boilershops. In response to the first, the commit tee waa assured by President Harrlman lu a conference in his office in San Francisco that shortly after the Union Pacific strike he had Issued an order that the Southern Pacific officers were to take no steps to .assist the Union Pacific in any manner whatsoever. This order has been strictly followed and assurance to that efTect given the com mittee. The question- of piece-work In the boilershops is covered in the same arreement of December 19, 1902, which pledges the men as well as the com rany to thirty days notice. The best answer that can be made to the alleged intention of the Southern Pacific Com pany to extend its plan of work is to repeat a, personal assurance given by the president of the company to the bollermakers when they visited him that "the Southern Pacific Company does not intend to extend the piece work system In its) boiler shops with out conference and agreement with th bollermakers. Knowing as well as we do that our men are contented' and are unwilling to disturb the harmonious relations now existing with their employers, we wish, through explanation so widely tussemlnated aa to reach every Indi vidual, to refute the statements in re etntly circulated affidavit amongst the boi iermakers by parties who re cently traveled over the system. These erroneous statements we know estab lished wrong premises; and no doubt warped the judgment of our bollermak ers in reaeblnjr their conclusion to stop wont . j. KRuTTSCIINITT.

By a bolt t lightning which struck k the Clymer street potice station, Williamsburg; Captain Bernard Gallagher, Serjeant Montague and ten policemen were ren dered unconscious. Sergeant Montague was thrown to the floor and Policeman Cor ley was knocked down and stunned. He was half conscious when his eoio paniona reached him. and artificial re spiration had to be resorted to to re store him to consciousness. The shock was felt through the entire -.balldln? At the same moment that the polk-s station was struck, a Nostrand aveiw trolley ear, which was passing, was hit. The motormah a as (severely stminex FIFTY THOUSAND ' VOICES RAISED (Continued from Page I.) "" equally base. The characteristic of, ar rogance toward those who are less well off. and the characteristic of envy to wards those who are better off. If our people ' permit themselves to travel along elthe't of the lines, or either of the path which have led those repub lics of thtr past to destruction, there will be evil times ahead fbr this na tion; and my belief In the future of the nation is firm., because I believe In our peop!e;-because"I believe in the robuat manhood of America; because I believe they, will set their, faces like flint a-aln ativs man. rich or poor, who wishes to substitute . for the ancient American brothehood of equality before the law and under the law. and the treatment of each man as a man of our sect to substitute for that the gov ernment of any class in the Interests of that class, and against the interests of America. This is a government in which enr test most be. not whether a man be rich or poor holding It neither for nor against him that he la either well or not well off, hut making as the sole test the question whether he is a straisht. decent man. a good neighbor, a good citizen, ami does his duty under the Jaw.., arid therefore Is entitled to the right hand of fellowship from all good citizens. " "The most dangerous ritlxen in the country Is the man who would try to 'persuade any sect of our people that It is to their Interests to over-reach any other sect of our people. Fundament ally we shall go up. or go down togeth er.. If good times come they will come more to some than to others,. but they will come more or. less to all; and if the, hand of the Lord is heavy upon un, if wt? suffer from floods, or . ; from droughts, from disease, or from the ef fects of our own folly, the suffering, while it will be for all unequal, will be left more or less by each and all of us. When there Is a period of depression W all feel It, or a period of prosperity. We are all more or less benefitted by it. In no way is it possible permanently to help any of us by trampling down oth ers. The rich man can be helped pet manently only if the conditions are Such that the wage-worker is well oft; and If it were possible to do away with all the wealth in this country, to take it away from Its present owners, the first and the greatest sufferers thereby would be -those who Are least, well oft in the world's goods. "Now. One of the greatest dangers in any republic is the danger arising1 from the man who seeks through folly, or for his own sinister purposes, to arouse the spirit of envy, jealousy, or distrust as between one class and another; who pleads to a class - to do wrong, or to rollow him because it will be for their interests. Now, let me tell you one an ecdote, and it will .be the only one. lu the old days I lived in what I regarded as the West; and have since learned that the West and the East are rela tive tertns. I had a cow, rartCh.aVithat time on the Little Missouri 'on the bor der line between North Dakota and Montana, and one day one of my hands came to me' and sald:T 'I ygould like my time. I raid: WnaV,a're,Vp,n go ing to doT And he saldC'Spend the winter in the far East. I said: 'What do you mean by the "far "East? any way. Nubia or IndlaT He said. Du luth. Well, at the time I was on that cattle ranch it was In a .country where the cow-punchers had rules with re gard to the branding of cattle, and; under those rules, when they found what is called a 'maverick, that Is an unbranded yearling, they would brand it with the brand of the ranch upon which it was found; and one day I had a new hired man, and while he was riding across a neighboring ranch be struck a 'maverick, and roped it, and tied it down and not having his brand, ing Iron, he took, his cinch ring, and having built a little fire, was proceed ing to brand It with my brand. I war riding past and, seeting what he wae doing. I said: 'You are putting on my brand. lie said. "Yes, I always put on the boase's brand. I told him to go hack to the ranch and get his time He said: 'What is that for; I was put ting on your brand.' I said, 'yes, and if. you steal for me, you will steal from me.. '.. "It is the same thing, the same rule applies in civic life. A public man who iw?k to persuade any of us to do wrong in our Interests, will, whenever It becomes to his interest, do wrong to us. Just as he seeks to do wrong on our behalf. There is" but one safe rule to follow In public life, as In private iife, and that 'is the old. old rule of treating your neighbor as you would like for your neighbor to treat you The old rule of decency, honesty and square dealing as between man and man, and w can make, and will make, this re public a success" at home and abroad; we will solve our problems within our borders at the same time that we make the malesty and the dominion of Amer ica among the peoples of the earth tar greater, only by paying heed of the old. old fundamental rules that have made R-ood men and good citizens ever since the first recorded days the first recorded annals in the history of man kind. : Wa need first as a foundation, de cency, morality, virtue the qualities that make a man good husband, a ity that made a man ashamed to do aught without regard to the honor of hia country of his flag. If you have not patriotism If you have not decency ii you nave not the spirit of fair deal ing, whey then the abler a man Is the greater surse he Is to the community. There, is no one American living a worse man than the man of whom fool ish people speait of with admiration as 'a smart man, meaning thereby, whol ly unaccompanied by scruples or hon esty. 'Smart. That speaks 111 for the -man who says it; and we shall make of our, Government what It is to be, and will, be, only when we hunt down the scoundrel who succeeds, as merci lessly as the scoundrel who fails, lust as in the Civil War. The braver a man was. the stronger and more able, the more dangerous he was If he did not have the morality and the spirit of square dealing and devotion to the flag. So of civil life, you have got to have more than that you have got to have with It morality and decency. It don't make any difierenrhow patriotic a man is. -if he has not those virtues, bs ! of noun' ' , ' i t "There" were some men whom you may remember, who had the best train ing and wore" the nicest "uniforms, and at the end "-you could not get anything out. of them, because there ws -not anything ntnem. ; Just so In civil life, good fsjher..a good, man, to work with or ileal with; ft man who does bis duty by those ground. h!m nJ In addition to that we need fMrUiermore the strong burly qualities, shown by all of those who have, ever played mighty parts In the history, of. the. world. ; "JEvery. man . hero who- fought In. the great .war; .every man here, who has done hia. share In paving the way to the terectlon .of .a. civilized commonlty In A wilderness, . In building up thi mighty, .new .commonwealth, on the borders-ef -the Pacific ocean, has done It by showing the- qualities of thooght and charat-ter- to which we allude when we say of a -man not only when we say thai he is -a good- man.' but that he Is a man. "In 45e"Cfvlf War you needed patri otism first love of country the qual- hut'ln addition, in civil life. In addition to the 'spirit of "decency 'and honesty, a Fprit that is indispensable, there "must be the spirt of manliness, the spirit that semis a man forth into the world to do his work as a man among men. "In closing, then, .what we need In citizenship- Is a. strong body ? Tes. nnd more important still, a strong mind, and , more Important, with this mind or . body Into which many ele ments are carried, -but there are three Important elements the element nf de- ency, the. element of courage, and. fin ally the saving grace of common sense. And I' believe In you. O. my country men; I believe In the future of Oregon; T believe in the future of this great and miKhty nation. because I believe that in our average citizenship there. Is exactly, that combination of qualities: and Just f so long as our prople seek character since they have the funda mental virtues' of decency, courage and common sense, just so long we may rest assured this country will gfow on ward end upward, until It occupies a place among 'the nations of mankind, such ws has rit-Ver been known since he days when history was first writ ten.'

Secretary of the Na-y Moody wns introduced and s:iid that while this was the first time he bad ever had the pleasure of opening his eyes upon Ore gon, yet he felt-pride In the fact that his uncle was one of the early pion eers of Oregon and his Cousin was born on this soil. He said the Navy ought to be well received in Oregon, because its sounding name had been given to a vfssel that would hold; an Important place' in history. He told the story of the Oregon receiving the dispatch at Cape Verde Islands to beware of. the Fpanlsh fleet, and to lay.up for repairs if thought best, but that Captain Clark said he had not come around the horn to go Into dryt5efc and that he was ro- ing out.- and if he met the Span'sh Navy it would not be as good-looking; a lleet afterwards as before. He said the Nation had a grund Navy, composed of stalwart men ami - . . . . gooo armament, ana no aaviwu n. i-un. tinuatlon of the policy f Navy build ing. , He congratulated Oregon and Washington uponr the splendM quality of young manhood which they - have furnished as recruits I !.

President Roosevelt, and his day In So. km will be the talk of this community for several years. At the depot, and before mounting the platform of his car, President Roosevelt shock hands with Ihe driver of his carriage and thanked him for his careful handling of the team,; and with all of the members of the committees. marshals and officers of the guard. He then mounted the platform and. In a few words expressed his gratification tc the people for haying come out' to see him, and he was given three lusty cheers by the great multitude which surrounded his car. Before the train pulled out the President wns recalled to the depot platform; where Judge Burnett Introduced him to Mr. and Mrs. J A.

When the President's train , reached Cremawa, through the efforts of Mr. Hermann, the President consented to stop for two minutes. Assistant Su perintendent Campbell had all of the students and band lined up In order and the band discoursed some excellent music Tor his benefit while the pupils cheered him to the echrt. One original feature which the President recognized and seemed much pleased with, was a lot of boys carrying hoes, rakes, tools. et representing all the' Industries of irstitutlon. - As the train moved away asain Mr. Hermann stood upon tho platform with the President and oo'nt el out the different buildings. - f , m r i ': BUNCH OF APHORISMS. .'
