THE HOME LABOR LAW.
At the last city election there was added to the city charter a
provision to give home labor the first chance at public work.
If the home laborer and teamster cannot get a chance to have
employment on city contracts, how can they make their homes
here?
This is a simple question, and there must be a very simple an
swer to it, and that is to give them a chance. .
When a sewer is built or a street is paved there should be some
way to give resident labor a chance to get employment.
What has brought the I. W. W. troubles upon this city, and we
are not through with them, but bringing in contract alien labor?
The public policy of giving laborers and teamsters and me
chanics who have homes and families here a chance to live is a
good one.
If it is enforced it will build up the city and give contractors a
better class of laboring men, who are here to stay. .
Laborers who have families are worthy of preference and they
should not be driven to a starvation basis by importing alien la
bor. Laborers who can get public work and have homes and fam
ilies will spend all their earnings here, have better homes and
more prosperity. ,
There has been no effort whatever to enforce the home labor
law, and the time has come to determine whether it has any
meaning.
;o
THE PROGRESSIVE SENATOR.
Senator Carson ,of this city, pursued a broad and progressive
policy in voting for appropriations for other sections of the state
He relieved this city of the cry of "Salem Hog" by not fighting
enterprises of other sections of the state.
He showed himself a progressive man, as representing a pro
gressive community.
At the request of the Salem Board of Trade, he introduced bills
to buy an additional block of ground for the new supreme court
building.
He ha9 never been a party to the suits brought to enjoin the ap
propriations for other counties.
For this manly and progressive 'anti-Salem Hog" record he will
never be recalled.
The editor of The Capital Journal would like to have it said of
him when he is gone that he always stood for progress.
That will be the best monument any man can have erected to
his memory.
o
NIGGER IN THE TAXATION WOODPILE.
The people should remember one thing with all the commis
sions and officials their taxes are growing higher all the time.
Now comes the tax commission with four bills to be initiated,
for what they call rational tax reform.
The first is for a constitutional amendment for an income tax,
and it seems to be all right.
The second is to exempt all household goods, wearing apparel,
things worn on the person.
This is not right, unless the Single Tax is adopted, and should
be defeated because a $300 exemption would be more just.
The bill proposed would exempt a fifty-thousand equipment of
some millionaire, and the poor man would have nothing to exempt
The third bill contains the colored gentlemen in the slab pile
to abolish double taxation and the taxation of credits.
The purpose and the principle are all right but look at the
scheme contained therein exempt all stocks and bonds.
Except "bank stocks, shares and banking capital from assess
ment and taxationthink of it all stocks exempt but bank stocks.
Exempt "all public stocks and securities ; all bonds ; all stocks
and shares in incorporated or unincorporated companies," except
"bank stocks, shares and banking capital."
Would the bankers stand for that? Not for a moment; they
would take the law into the courts, and litigation would follow.
For two or three years all collection of taxes would be held up
and all state, county, school and city warrants would draw inter
est. .
The bankers would defeat the law, and in the meantime make a
harvest of interest by furnishing the money to carry on the gov
ernment. And who would blame them?
The fourth bill, to tax inheritance, does not interest us, as we
neither expect to inherit or leave any inheritance to anyone.
erage yield of cereals to thirty-one bushels per acre. In a young
country with a new soil we are producing about half that much.
Mayor Simpson and Mayor Straw, progressives, are fighting
for better water down in the Coos Bay cities. It is an important
matter, but the past history of those communities is that even
good water would be much adulterated before it became an ar
ticle of universal consumption.
,
The auarry division of the bureau of mines of the department
of the interior has sent to this office three sets of letters and a
lot of blanks to fill out with information. This official, on a sal
ary, asks the citizen who is paying that salary to do his work
free gratis. First there is a department, then a bureau, then a
division, in all superintendents, clerks, stenographers, etc., etc.
Is it any wonder there are Socialists, I. W. W s and anarchists
as a product of parasiting officialism ! ,
Why should not Salem be made a model home city? Why
should not home laborers be given the first chance for employ
ment? Is not that the way to build up any city? We rob our
selves when we allow imported contractors to take twenty to for
ty per cent on public work.
The annual school election comes Monday, June 17. It is being
kept very quiet, and there is no interest being taken. The people
should awaken to the fact that the public schools are in exist
ence. It is not known whether Mr. A. N. Moores would take the
job again or not. He has been chairman of the board for the
tmst year, but has had very little to say. The organization has
been against him, and it is presumed that the machine will try
to defeat his election. Still Mr. Moores should be nominated
and elected for the honorable stand he has taken.
"Taft gets delegates from Florida, from Alabama,' etc. Na
tional committee decides all contests in his favor." But Taft got
no delegates where voters had ndirect vote. How many electoral
votes will he got from Florida, Alabama, etc? The independent
voters in the doubtful states will not give him any electoral
votes. How will he win?
Portland politicians like to moral wave just enough to capture
the votes of the morc-easily faked portions of the church mem
bers, and then not do anything to interfere in the least with the
vicious element of that city. The result is bitter disappointment
that the conditions of the citv are positively shameful.
In Boston they think enough of newly naturalized citizens to
invite all who have taken out papers since last July 4th to n free
Independence Day dinner. There will be addresses on civic du
ties, and the American flag will be the only emblem in evidence.
It looks as if Fred S. Bynon would be pretty nearly- a central
fimire at the Chicago convention. Elected as a Taft man, he
takes the broad and progressive Republican view that the peo
ple's instructions for Roosevelt are his only guide to action.
In addition to all other bills, the mosquito will present his for
the next two months especially to the annoyance of the young
people on the vine-covered porch.

WEONAS PUT UP A GOOD GAME,
BUT NOT GOOD ENOUGH, AND
WENT DOWN TO DEFEAT BY A
SCORE OF 8 TO 3.
Salem fans yesterday sawt a good
game'of baseball on the local grounds.
The visitors, the Weonas, of Portland,
went down to defeat by a score of 8
to 3, but this does not Indicate that
the game wag a one-sided one, for the
visitors were almost an even match
for our boys. The local team was
stronger in the outfield than it has
ever been, and, notwithstanding the
fnct that the outfield, is in miserable
shape, some good work was done by
both teams In that field. Destley, in
right field, made several sensational
catches, as well as Esslek, In center
field, who was In the game all the
time, proving himself to be a strong
man at the bat, as well as in the out
field. With a little more practice Es
slek will make one of the strongest
players on the team. Holman, In left
field, played well considering, but at
the bat did not show up as strong as
the others, but will make a good play
er. Jones was at his best again yes
terday, as wag Keene, Porterfield and
Pitcher Baker. The vlsltorg put up a
good, Btrong, clean game of ball. Their
pitcher, Scott, Btruck out seven of our
men, but this does not of Itself indicnte
that his pitching wag not good, for
during the first seven Innings he did
some good work in the box. He gave
six of our men bases on balls, howev
er, while Daker gave but three bases
on balls. Pitcher Baker str.ick out 15
of the visitors. Struck by pitched ball
off naker two, Scott, none. Salem got
12 hits off Scott, while the vlsltorg got
only four hits off Daker.

A game Is scheduled for next Sun
day between the locals and the Turner
team, This gives promise of a rat
tling good game, as the Turners de

out 12 men.
