MINE WORKERS HEAD.
Ai president of the largest labor
rganimition in the world the United
Aline Workers with 400,000 members
John P. White has given the News
paper Katerprise Association a state
ment pointinif out that the rights of
the working man are at stake in this
rampaign and will be endangered bv
the election of Hughes.
Mr. White tells -why wage earners
houtil look with grnvc fears on the
fitceos of the republican candidate..
Jt ia a significant mid remarkable
tatement that should be read by everv
man interested in the welfare of
working men ami women.
Said Mr. White:
"tVr every working man and wo
man, f no paramount issue in this cam
juiign is the right of wage earners to
orgnni.o and net together for their
wn protection and advancement.
"hvery big corporation and lubor
exploiter in the country intent on de
feating organization and keeping their
unployes submissive and defenceless

election of Hughes. They know that
ho concurred in the Dnnbury Hatters'
decision, and they count on 'him to re
pent his performance whenever the is
nie of the right to organize comes be
foro him.
''The Clayton net oslublishes the
freedom of labor so fur as it can be
established by congress. Hut the
fight has only begun. Moth Mr.
Hughes mid t'olonel Roosevelt huve
hown that they aro not in nympnthy
with the purposes of that act. fr.
Itoosovclt while president violently ns
aailed a similar measure and the labor
men who sponsored it. He could not
.tolerate any limitation on the power
f judges to send working men to jail
for long terms without trials for strik
ing and thus interfering with the
of their negotiations with the train
men, in an effort to influeneo public
sentiment ngainst the deinands of their
trainmen for nn eight-hour day.
''These millions did not come from
the profits of the railhoad managers
or the railroad owners," says Senntor
hn Follette. ''They eaino foin the
funds of the treasuries of the rail
roads. This campaign was conducted
with money that really belonged to
the people."
"This eight-hour law has been culled
n 'force bill,' enacted under the de
mands of organized railroad train
ii ca," continues Senator Jn KoIUtte.
''This is not true. Congress, rliuintor
ested, under law bound to consider
only the public good, wns forced to act
In tho public's interest. It was not
torced to act because of any Jemnnda
upon congress by the workingmen or
by the railroads, but because the pub
lic interest demnnded immediate ac
tion. "Congress acted. Tt passeil wTiat is
known as the eight hour law for men
in the employment of railroads in
intorstntc commerce, engaged in mov
ing Iruins. Every Wisconsin repre
sentative present voted for the bill.
which became a luw and averted the
strike. 1 believe they did right."
Senator Cummins riddles the prepos
terous claims of both Mr. Hughes arid
his campaign malingers and declares
the child labor law as enacted by con
gress anil signed by President Wilson
is certain to "effectuate, the humane
purposes toward which the friends of
child labor legislation hnvo for a long
time been striving.'.' . ,
Senator Cummins' statement is not
only n complete nnswer to these at
tacks, but is a timely mid stem re
buke to those responsible for giving
them publicity. Ilia views are set
forth in a letter to Owen H. Lovejoy,
general aeeretary of the national child
labor committee, written September 2:1.
"If Republicans are making any
such ehnrge ngainst the law in order
to discredit the administration," Sena
tor Cummins says, ''the effort is dis
reputable and must react upon those
who are foolish enough to give cur
rency to the charge.". (Puid Adv.)
spective groups assures an efficient
furtherance of the Christian work this
year.
So great was the demand tor entrnnco
into the Ladies' (iloe club this year
that Director ( hiice had more than
enough applications to form n new club
It wus only with "rent difficulty that
selections were made and many excel
lent voices were ne.osaurily excluded
from membership. Director Chace be
lieves that the talent now available is
by far the best in recent years and lie
intends to spare no pains to produce a
creditable musical club from its num
bers. Election of officers will be a fea
ture of the next rehearsal which will
occur Thiirsdav afternoon. .
Those successful in the competitive
contest for "'linission were: First so

University Notes
According to Dr. Frank Wilbur
Chaeo, director of the university fes
tival chorus, the results of two re
hearsals are very encouraging. Already
M university students and townspeo
ple have registered for the chorus work
iffered and many more are expected to

attempt to form auch a musical orgaui
XRtinn, it ia no small wonder that Direc
tor Chace haa ample cause to be pleas

most celebrated ever composed, special
importance to their local production is
assured. In nil probability these inns
Jcfil creations will be presented toward
the end of March or early in Anril Aw
there ia atill room for additional talent.
Announcement concerning the Y. W.
C. A. work wns recently posted on the
bulletin hoard in F.ato'a hall by Miss
Aetna Kinmel, president - the associa
tion. All departments are organized un
der nine executives who in turn nre as

the new' cabinet ia to get every young

next rchearsnl will bo held tomorrow die Tobie. Such a division into the re-
(Tuesdny) evening ' Waller chapel at
seven o'clock it will lust exactly one
hour.
How great is the influence and in
terest taken ill the Epwoith League
work at the First Methodist church is
shown in the advance bulletin of lead
ers for the year which is just off the
press. With the exception of six Sun
dnys, every week from October to June
shows the leaders for the respective
weekly services to be an uliiinui or pres
ent attendant of Willamette.
Twenty two university men are stak
ing the ways and means of their exist
ence in the Commons club, a co-operative
outing organization "for the pre
vention of superfluous flesh." By ink
ing shifts as serving maids and dish
washers these young bachelors are suc
cessfully combatting the cost of high
living at a price averaging $2.50 a
week, .lust how palatable viands are
obtained at this price so that tho men
have no desire to board elsewhere is
interesting to investigate.
Whereas last year excellent board
was obtained for $2.0!l a week, this
year the great rise in pneo of food-,
stuffs sees the price ifi.oO per seven
lays. A sample menu sees breaktust
of coffee, toast, hot cakes, and ocua
siounlly hum and eggs. Luncheon usual
ly has vegetables par excellence with
and assortment of bread, also butter.
lu the evening ealtcst nre meat, fruit,
".Murphies", buns and home made
bread, all that aa expanding youue
fViiicricuu could desire to expand his
out rigging.
Purchuses of the summer in cheap
markets serve the men in good stead
and the mellow peaches and pears now
on the menu reflect the best of the
harvest season. Arrangements were
made last summer with the cook who
is now kitchen director for the see
ond year, so that all necessary canning
was done in anticipation of this full's
demand, 'taken all in all the class ot
pep displayed in the walking actions
of the boarders would absolutely tend
to dispute the cry that America is in
u decadent condition from underfed lu
borers. Classical in the spirit of ancient
(ireece was the annual formal it t home
Saturday afternoon of the I'hilodosian
girls in their hulls at the university.
The niujestie. splendor of the ancient
temples, the strange decipherings of
the Delphian oracles, the lutes and
strains of Apollo, the golden harvest
fields of Ceres, the spinning of the
fates, all were reproduced to make a
(Irecian holiday. The beautiful simplic
ity and clussie iniprossiveness of the
I'hilodosiun 's gowns added a touch to
the occasion which reminded ninny
who attended of the fair Helens and
Dianas of whom the bnrds have sung
in the immortal Hinds and tMysseys.
Receiving the guests were Miss Vio
let Maclean, president of the Philo
dosiau society, Mrs. tiustav Ebsen, Mrs.
William E. Kirk, Mrs. Carl tlregg Do
ney, Mrs. R, L, Mathews and Miss
Fannie McKeuuou. Simple programs
enrryiug out the Crecinn idea were
then distributed bv Miss Louise lienseu
who divided the guests into groups to
visit the respective temples. The Tem
ple of Diana contained many speci
mens of sculpture nnd was ruled by
Miss Irina Hotsford. Following was the
tirade of Delphi with Miss Jessie llol
comb presiding and rending the pnlms
of all who tarried near that mysterious
temple. The spindle, distaff and spin
ning wheel next invited the loiterers
to learn how long the threads of life
would be spun. Here the three graces
were represented by the Misses Kuth
Creen, I.ncile Jnskoski and Maude
Maclean. Tempting the guests with the
delicious ambrosia, the immortal brow
of the gods, was the Temple of Itacchus
under the sceptre of Miss Fannie Me
Kennon. Last came the Cerean Temple
where inviting tidbits were served by
Saix charming nymphs directed by Mias
Barbara Steiner. At vnrinua times
atraina . from the latticed Temple of
Apollo recalled that the lyrical muses.
Miss Esther Cox and Miss I.ncile Me-

, Wichita, Kuu., Oct. 2.1. Den ratio
stock in Kansas went to top prices Sat
urday when the Wichita Eagle, edited
by Victor Murdock, and official organ
in Kansas of the Bull Moose-party, an
nounced editorially for the re-election
of Woodrow Kilsou.
The editorial, a lengthy article,
charges Hughes has shown by his
fight on the Adamson law and other
bills "tending to carry out the so
cial and industrial progress of the
progressive platform of l!il2" that he
should be defeated, and urges the re
election of Wilson becinis of his record,
which it terms ," progressive. "
"On the Fence" Until Yesterday.
The announcement, printed under
the caption "Wilson and Capper," also
urges the re-election of the republican
governor of Ka nsns. 1 ntil todav Mur
dock 's paper had been "on the fence "
The editorial in part! follows:
"There are but two weeks left un
til election. Although even now mi ex
ploit of the l'-5.'i or some other untoward
development might upset present condi
tions, the issueB of the campaign may be
considered as joined. It is time, there
fore, lor the independent voter to -get
oif the fence, he must be making- his
choice. .
Wilson Stands for Progressive Test.
"The logic of events, the issues ns
they arc now joined, the facts as they
exist, lead to the selection of Woodrow
Wilson us the .-presidential choice bv
those citizens who would more certainty
further the progressive principles so
vital in a republic and to civilizatiou
itself.
"The question is simply as to which
candidate stands out as best fitted to
tiring nearer a realization those practi
cal measures of Christian brotherhood
among the men and women of this na
tion and between this nation and the na
tions of the earth."
White Still Republican
Emporia, Kan., Oct. 2:1 William Al-
en White, former progressive, author
aim ou'torit the Emporia (Kansas)
(iazette, was still in the republican
camp today, despite ictor Murdock 's
announcement for Woodrow Wilson.
"The (lazetti is a republican paper
and we are ruihring Hughes' inline un
der the sub head pu the editorial page"
White said today'.
Tho' Emporia editor knew nothing
of Murdock 's announcement for Wil
son until told of it today by a repre
sentative of the United Press. He re
fused to comment on tho announcement
except to any: "It is Murdock 's own
business."
Murdock, editor of the Wichita Eagle
announced he would support Wilson for
president ami ,4j-thur Caliper, republi
can, for governor of Kansas. Henry J.

A train from llousiitonic urriving at
Bridgeport, Conn., struck a team of hor
tes drawing a heavy truck while cross
ing a giade in the city of Bridgeport.
While the driver was hurrying his hors
es across the tracks one "of tho whela
of tho truck became wedged in a switch.
The train struck the wagon, and when
the wagon was torn from where it had
been struck it released the switch,
which caused the train to lake a siding.
It was impossible for the engineer to
slop the train, which was going at a
high rate of speed, and the engiuc jump
ed the track, (curing itself loose from
the care, and rolled down the embank
ment about twenty feet, where it strt k
mother wagon mid killed two horses
drawing the same. The driver of thin
truck was uninjured. The driver of the
first truck wus killed, instantly. Many
passengers on the train were reported
injured, and ambulance culls were sound
ed all over the city of Bridgeport. Had
the triiin gone twenty-iive feet farther
on it would huve leaped off the end of
a viaduct, causing great loss of life.
The pictures show two views of tho
vrccked engine after it had struck ami
demolished the second wagon. The en
gine crew wus not injured, the locomo
tive engiueer and the fireman saving
themselves by jumping before their en
gine struck the aecond wagon. Bail
lond men who investigated the wreck,
called it one of the que rest in their experience.
