ORRANIZE TO FIGHT
HIGH FREIGHT RATES
UNITED Press Leased Wlre.l


San Francisco, Nov. 23.-Prepara-
tions were completed at several meet
ing and conferences this week, hav-
ing for their object the organization
OF strong opposition against the
new freight rates, which have b EN-
threatened by the trans-continental
railroads and which, IL is claimed,
womld work grave injury to the in-
terests of the Pacific coast tanners,
fruit Gamers, fruit driers, bean
growers, ship chambers and shoe
finders.
The object of the meetings of this
week will be to enlist the assistance
of the merchants exchange and the
chamber of commerce in presenting
the claims of the growers, manu-
facturers and shippers to the inter-
state commerce commission. A sue
cial meeting of the traffic bmreau OF
the Merchants Exchange will be
held tomorrow when data, support

NJ. l.. Hadley, who for the past
twenty years has conducted the larg-

advertising agency Oh the Pacific
ccast, has removed his San francisco
offices to the Metrol oils BANK Build
ing, the very heart of the financial

The very best advertising writer's

the Hadley agency is more than ever
a factor in the up-building and de-
velopment of commercial and flnan-
cial interests of the coast.
One of the new features In connec-

use OF clients wishing to float high

Financial literature will receive the
careful attention of specialists con

Banks and investment concerns will
be able to obtain valuable informa-

The newspaper department will
continue to receive the personal at

THE TIME HAS COME FOR AC.

TION.
The growth of the city and the
growth of the State Fair alike make
1t necessary.
The only road to the fair grounds
is occupied with a street car line and
in some places is less than twenty
feet wide.
Handling ten to twenty thousand
people a day over such a street Is
dangerous to human life.
The State Fair is an institution
that is entitled to CONSIDERATION
AT THE HANDS OF THE COM
MUNITY.
When the State Fair board holds
its annual meeting here early In De-
cember a plan for the construction of
that boulevard should be ready to
submit.
This city should not look to the
county or to the state to construct
that boulevard or 1t will never be
done.
That street is entirely within the
city and no Improvement WILL
BENEFIT THIS CITY AS MUCH AS
THAT WILL.
The committee on streets, the
street commissioner, the city council,
the Board of Trade, the Business
Mems League, every one should get
busy.
We owe 1t to ourselves and to the
enterprising State Fair board to build
that street and bulldt It RIGHT
AWAY AND WITHOUT MUCH
CEREMONY.
If we are to keep pace as a city
with the growth of the state and the
growth of the State Fair, that street
should be built regardless of expense.
There is enough brains, energy and
booster spirit in the Capital City to
push that much-needed IMPROVE
MENT THROUGH WITHOUT DE
LAY.
This city will make great and
serious mistake IL IL does not meet
the State Fair management more
than half way in i>S labors to make
the Oregon State Fair source of
state pride.
LET US ALL BOOST FOR THE
BOULEVARD.

THE FARMERS RAISE THE TAXES
BY THE SWEAT OF THEIR
BROWS.
The gross earnings tax must be
defeated or the Pullmans and Platts
and Rockefellers and Calhouns WILL
HAVE TO PAY TO SUPPORT THE
STATE GOVERNMENT.
Direct Legislation is dangerous to
the big interests.
The people must be deceived BY
THE MONOPOLIsTIC ORGAN OF
WHOLESALE DECEPTION.
1t would never do to tell them that
this address attacking Direct Legis-
lation was delivered by the chief
counsel of the interests attacked by
Direct Legislation.
THE PEOPLE ARE NOT FIT TO
KNOW THE TRUTH, is the theory
of the chief organ of the great bunko
game of political Ananniasism at
Portland, Oregon.
But there is not 80 much ignor-
ance among the people as these vo-
taries of the predatory interests sup
pose.
II is just such conduct as this on
the part of a press monopoly that
has compelled the people to take the
legislative power into their own
hands in Oregon.
II is such deceptions and betrayals
of public trust that has DESTROYED
CONFIDENCE IN OUR LEGISLA-
TURES.
The people said, Our representa-
tives will not place taxation where II
belongs.
WE WILL DO A LITTLE TAX-
ING OURSELVES. WE WILL NOT
BEAR ALL THE BURDENS.
Hence the organs OF the interests
cry down this system, and seek to
establish the idea that such leglsla-
ton by the people is dangerous and
unconstitutional.
nut tue people Oh oregon KNOW
how helpless they are to secure JUS
tice In the legislature and the fed |
eral courts.
THEY KNOW THAT THE LEGIS-
AND CONGRESS- AND
THE FEDERAL COURTS ARE THE
HIDING PLACES OF CORPORA
TIONS.
The people know that they have
little or nothing to expect from the
highest supreme court.
But the court that once upheld |
that defeated the income tax
law, THAT SET ASIDE THE STAND
ARD OIL DECISION, there is little
to hope from the last court of APP
peals.
The people will wait the outcome
Of the litigation against the gross
tax in Oregon In the
they should be spared any
practice of deception. Let us
have less masQuerading.

METHODS THAT SHOULD BE EN-
POSED.

The old Portland machine is seek
ing to destroy the Direct Primary
law and defeat election of senators
by the direct vote of the people. To
do this IT MUST HAVE THE OR
GANIzATION OF THE LEGISLA-
TURE.
To secure the organization of the
legislature IL is asking that all mem
bers elected as Republicans GO INTO
i SECRET CAUCUS, and thus give
a chance for corrupt influences to
prevail in the organization of both
houses OF the legislature.
Everybody should know that the
old corrupt Portland political ma
chine WANTS POWER SOLELY FOR
PLUMBER wants the legislature or
ganized for purposes OF graft, and TO
defeat reforms and undo all that has
been accomplished for purer politics
in Oregon.
The anti-maehine elements in Ore
gon have a majority in both houses

RETRAI THE PEOPLE by handing

THE WAY THE PEOPLE OF ORE
CON ARE DECEIVED AND
MISLED.

It is a cruel shame to take candy
from babies.
But it isn't a circumstance to the
way the wool is pulled OVER THE
PEOPLES EYES IN OREGON.
Here we are, a great common
wealth with only one large city,
WITH ONLY ONE MORNING NEWS
PAPER IN THAT CITY.
An address is published in that
paper as delivered before the State
Bar Association.
That address propounds to be an
argument against the direct legisla-
tive system ENACTED by THE
PEOPLE OF OREGON.
It is supposed to be learned, able,
disinterested presentation of an i'm
portant matter and is commended
editorially.
But gaze behind the scene with us
and ask few why's and wherefores
The lawyer-politician who deliv-
cred that address, and he is able in
both fields. is THE SALARIED AID
VOCATE OF A LARGE CORPORA
TION.
That is no crime, but that is not
all.
The corporation that hires him has
been its direct legislation.
THE GREAT PORTLAND MORN
ING NEWSPAPER HIDES THAT
FACT.
II commends his argument. But
It. conceals his interest. 1T HIDES
HIS MOTIVE.
BY so doing II deceives its readers
The Grangers of Oregon initiated a
law to tax telegraph, telephone and
express companies on their gross
earnings.
ALSO TO TAX THE STANDARD
OIL AND PULLMAN SLEEPING
CAR COMPANIES. THAT LAW WAS
ENACTED.
Those corporations band together
TO resist and defeat payment of this
tax and hire this lawyer to plead
their case.
They have perfect right to do
this.
They are carrying their suit TO de-
feat the Direct Legislation amend
ment TO the Supreme Court OF the
United States.
THEY HAVE A PERFECT RIGHT
TO DO THAT ALSO.
But why deceive the people by con-
cealing the facts. the interests, the
motives of the lawyer who presents
the argument?
WHY NOT TELL THE PEOPLE
THIS IL THE HIRED ATTORNEY
OF THE INTERESTS WHO Is
SPEAKING?
Instead of palming IL OFF on the
unsuspecting people OF Oregon as
learned legal lore, why not tell them
THIS IL ROTTEN ROT, PAID FOR
BY THE PULLMAN PALACE CAR
COMPANY AND JOHN ID. ROOKIE
TELLER?
These corporations could never be
taxed on their gross earnings by al
legislature.
But THE PEOPLE FOUND Al
WAY TO REACH THEM.
SO the system of Direct Legisla-
tion must be battered down.
We must restore the Pullman Pal
acu Car passes TO the corrupt Port
land bosses and to the subservient
politicians on the bench and LET

Are Mississippi Editors Chumps?

Bolivar Co. Democrat.
We have received a letter from the
Mississippi Travellers ASSOCIATE o n
asking our support of a certain bill
now before the legislature. The let
ter head upon which the letter was
typewriter was printed by Texas
stationery house. Still there are
quite a number of Mississippi print
ing concerns which do most excellent
work. We suggest that the Associa-
ton get the newspapers of Texas to
aid them in getting their bill through
the Mississippi Legislature, as they
are the people they patronize. We
have on numerous occasions received
invitations to attend entertainments
of various kinds given by Mississippi
educational institutions printed out
side the State-the state itself hav-
ing its printing done by outside
printers, Tennessee, Texas, n d
South Carolina stationers are the
real thing when some of our officials
and public institutions have any
money to spend; but they fall back
on the sucker edito1s in Mississippi
when they have a scheme to get
through on free puff of any kind
they want the dear people" to read.
/ How long will the newspaper men
of Mississippi stand for such things?

will This Affect You?

Yazoo City Sentinel.
The custom which prevails among
so many country newspapers of
carrying subscribers from year to
year without the payment of sub
scription has been ordered discon-
tlnued by the post office department
at Washington and according to the
ruling, the newspapers which fail to
out off their delinquents are subject
ed to a heavy penalty. The order
became effective January /, but
newspapers we're given until April l.,
to collect subscriptions and adjust
their subscription list to the ruling.
It will be helpful to newspapers.
A weekly paper is not allowed to
carry a subscriber who is more than
one year in@arrears, hence if some
who are on the Sentinel's subscrip-
ton list, find their subscription &C
count in the hands of an officer, OF
worse, collection agency, between
now and April /, they need not be
surprised. Pay up. On April l, we
must make oath as to paid subscrip.
tions and must exercise all proper
diligence to get what is due this
Office in hand.

The soda Dispenser of Atlanta
continues to pound away, presenting
strong argument to that trade; that
this is the golden opportunity to
build up colossal soft drink bust
ness since prohibition has got the
hard drinks on the run. Here S
some of the talk handed out:
.t.Prohibition is already an estab-
lished fact in a great majority of
southern counties, with State pro-
hibition in all of the Southern
States probably only a matter of
time. The influence of this gov
eminent policy upon the soda foun-
tain is direct and important, and
it should be made to contribute
greatly to increased business with
out undue burdens in the form of
city, county and State licenses, oc-
cupation tax, special taxation or
any other form of legal mulcting.
The experience of the fountain
business in Georgia and elsewhere
in the South in this respect should
put the trade on its guard every
where, and the importance of trade
organization is not to be depre-
ciated or underestimate in this
connection.
The soda dispensing industry has
got to be big thing in the South
ern States, and growing at re-
markable rate. No other industry
of like magnitude is unorganized,
and our fountain people are sleeping
on their best interests and oppor-
tunities so long as they continue
in their present unorganized condi-
tion." .-
