MONEY IS
AVAILABLE
FOR LOCKS

That the 100000 appropriation
made by the legislature OF 1907 for
the locks at Oregon City, to become
available as soon as congress should
make a like appropriation, has not
reverted into the general fund be-
cause of the expiration of the three
wears in which it was to be used but
that it was provided for by the legis-
lature of 1909, was the discovery
made by Governor West today, and
the appropriation is ready to be
turned over to the federal govern
ment at any time it sees fit to COM
mence work on the locks.
State Treasurer Kay in reading the
law the other day found that it con-
tanned a clause that unless. congress
should make a like appropriation
within three years after the law was
passed, that the appropriation should
revert to the general fund. AS more
than three years had elapsed, he con-
cluded that there was no appropria-
ton now available, and that If the
state was to cooperate that a special
session of the legislature would be
necessary for the making of an ap-
preparation.
Governor West in his message to
the legislature called attention to the
statute of 1909. reviving the state
statute of 1907 making appropria-
ton. and recommended that the legis-
lajture pass a law authorizing the
state board specifically to turn the
money over to the federal govern
ment when it should demand it, This
the legislature failed to do, but there
is no question anyway but that the
board has the authority The state
tax commission in making the tax
levy. made provision for the appro-
priation. and any time that the gov
ernment is ready to proceed with the
work on the locks, the money is
available.

oakland, Cal, Sept. S.-Justifica-
ton of organized labor's criticism of
The courts for their anti-labor appli-
cation of the Sherman law, denun-
elatiOn of the methods of the detec-
tiva in the Mcnamara case and a
warning to big business that it was
making a fatal mistake in opposing
labor organizations, were features of
On address at Rice Institute here by
Samuel GOmpers, president of the
American Federation of Labor.
big business is organized COM
pletely and efficiently" declared
GOmpers "and it is manifestly illog-
zeal for big business to deny bur
right similarly to organize.
Big business purpose is to curse
The labor movement, and it may be
expected to do anything it can to out
law labor.
Note the Difference.
THE fact is that unionism is out
hVed right today under the recent
ilterpretations by the courts of the
Sherman antitrust law. And in the
same breath the Standard Oil COM
pany and the tobacco trust have been
told to rob the people in some other
way and have been given six months
to find the new way"
Referring to the initiative, refer
endum and recall, Gompers declared
he was glad for the progress that was
being made toward securing these pro
visions for the people. He said labor
had stood for 25 years for the recall,
and had used it in its own sessions.
Recall All Right.
How long" he asked, "if we had

mat any lawyer will accept any side

GOnpers said:
This business of man-stealing by

saye you heard of a Rockefeller, Van

Saped when charged with crime. If

No Use for Crime.

pend upon crime for its success.
Crime is not only abominable in
itself, but the labor cause does not
need it. Murder is indefensible and
and crime is objectionable. We are
going to assume that the McNamaras
are innocent, because we know why
they are charged with this crime.
81 warn the employers associa-
tion that are fightin labor that
they are making the greatest mistake
