been done before. Without waiting
for action on the part Of the legisla-
ture to do away with prison con-
tracts and to provide employment for
the surplus and idle labor at the in
stitution. this Office has gone ahead
and fought the matter through-al-
most single handed. 1t has received
more support from the labor unions
than any other source and has not
missed an opportunity to give organ
lied labor due credit for the part 1t
has had in the fight to take the state
out Of the nefarious business Of con-
tracing the labor of its convicts to
private concerns.
The profits derived from the brick
which we're sold at your request have
been used to install industries at the
prison, whereby the labor could be
employed in the manufacture of ar
ticles which could be used in and
about the state institutions-th
avoiding the placing Of anything
manufactured by prison labor upon
the market AS the plan we have
been working out has been approved
by prominent labor leaders through
out the nation and as 1t offers the
only solution to this vexatious prob
lem, this Office feels that It should
have your support.
81 am sure that It would be for
the interest of all concerned If your
union would appoint a committee to
investigate this work at the prison,
in order that you may be fully ad-
ylsed as to the situation. BY so do
ing am sure the result will be the
giving Of your support to the move
mont and that no future action
would be taken by you, through reso-
luton or otherwise which could be
used by enemies of the movement to
place further obstacles in its way,
I'VE have had an uphill fight in
this matter, but have had the most
loyal support from organized labor
throughout the state, and / earnestly
hope that through lack Of under
standing no action on your part will
deprive organized labor Of the credit
for rendering this office the greatest
service in the matter of taking prison
labor out of competition with free
labor.
81 wish to again state that the state
is not in the brick business; that
the brick sales have been based upon
the request made by the president Of,
and the resolution adopted by, your
union, As soon as the requisite num-
ber of brick needed for the state
buildings has been manufactured, It
is our intention to shut down the
plant and no other request from any
organization or a famine in the brick
market will induce us to manufacture
more brick during this season.

Finding opposition by the members
OF the Bricklayers union, Of the city,
to the manufacture Of brick at the
penitenuary brickyard Governor
West today sent a letter to the Off
GERS and members Of the organiza-
ton advising them that the state had
no intention Of engaging in the
brick business, and that just as soon
as enough brick has been manufac-
tured for the state institutions, he
will close down the brick yard for
the season.
The governor several months ago
leased the brick yard with the inten-
ton Of manufacturing enough brick
to supply the state institutions, and
aIso enough to tho public to make
enough money to install several in
duBtries at the penitentlary The
local brick layers union recently
passed resolutions directing It's mem-
bers TO lay mono Of the prison made
brick. save for the state institutions,
and confronted with this situation,
ihe governor has decided TO close the
yard for the season and says that 1t
will not be re-opened either at the
solicitations OF any organization or
in the event OF brick famine.
The letter Is as follows:
"It has been brought to my atten-
tion, through the columns Of the
press, that resolution was passed
by your union declaring against the
laying Of brick manufactured at the
Oregon state penitentiary and giving
out the impression that this Office
was marketing prison made brick in
competition with that made by free
labor.
II wish 10 call your attention to
the fact that no brick was sold by
the Oregon state prison during my
administration until I received re-
quest FROM the president Of your
honorable body and letter signed
by the officers and carrying the seal
Of your union, stating your willing
ness to lay these brick. As the re-

quest appeared to be prompted by a
shortage Of brick, this office, being
glad Of an opportunity to assist in
any way in relieving a situation
which was keeping many men out OF
employment, consented to put the
brick upon the market We took 1t
for granted that when conditions had
changed so as to make the sale OF
prlson-made brick unnecessary or
undesirable, we would be officially
notified by your honorable body and
would be governed accordingly Up
TO date no such communication has
been received but on the other hand.
this Office has been besleged not
only by those who we're desirous Of
purchasing brick but by certain brick
manufacturers, asking that we re-
lease more of the brick in the prison
yard in order that a brick famine
might be avoided In spite Of these
requests, however, we have permit
ted but 1000 brick to be taken from
the yard this season, and these by
persons who needed them for special
purposes or hurry-up Jobs and were
without time to send away for them.
The prison has no intention Of
launching into the brick business.
What sales have been made have
been based upon the letter sent this
office by your union. All the brick
we have on hand have been made
for the use of the state and will be
held for that purpose. We werc will
ing to continue further, however, and
make sufficient TO cover any shortage
there might be in the brick market,
in order that work on buildings now
being erected might not be delayed
and labor thrown out Of employment.
"One of the principal objects this
chlce has had II. view and hopes to
be able to accomplish in very short
time is the taking of prison labor out
Of competition with free labor. We
insist we have done more in this d.

dare. Youth must have its way
and it was the part of wisdom to
trust youths vigor rather than
maturity's counsel.
There is much to be said on
both sides of the question. One
may remark that Alexander con-
quered the world before he was
80, but Napoleon Was beaten by
man past 40, and Jackson was As
at the battle of New Orleans. The
fortunes of the Southern arms
were entrusted to Robert F. Lee,
aged 81, and certainly no one will
claim that any commander could
have done better, while the North
ern armies failed again and again
until Grant, who had turned 40,
also turned the scale of victories.
Joan of Arc died at 20, having
done her work, but Mrs. Eddy
was failure at so and afterward
founded a worlds religion, If
Chatterton died at 20 and Bryant
wrote "Thanatopsis" at 10, and
Poe's genius was complete under
40, still Longfellow published
'Iiawatha" at 48, Tennyson pub

Kidney Diseases Increase $50
Per Cent In the City OF
Chicago in one Cen

Grafton.

tIdAlOlis
One Of the most appalling facts
brought to light by the statistics
of the United States Census
Bureau, is the increase Of Kidney
and Bladder Diseases. In less
than one generation these dread
ful ailments have increased 167
per cent in the City of Chicago
and in much the same ratio in
other parts Of the United States.
These diseases arise almost
wholly from the process Of strain
ing the human machine. They
may be due TO overlooking or un-
der feeding, TO over work or un-
der work in fact TO any OF those
irregularities in living which the
average man or woman subjects
the body to.
Every three minutes the entire
blood supply passes through the
kidneys which act as very fine
filters separating the waste from
the pure blood and eliminating
il through the bladder.
During the years Of hard work
the Kidneys break down causing
Bladder troubles, Brights Dis
ease, Backache and a dozen other
ailments which almost every one
knows only too well. The weak
ness will first be noticed by
pains in the back, scanty or too
frequent urinating, aching
limbs. irritability, continuous
thirst, irritation of the Bladder,
sleeplessness and symptoms of
allied nature; and later, as
Brights Disease. by intense
paleness and wasting away Of
the tissues.
After years of careful study
and laboratory work, the Cham
bers Medicine Company has per-
fected Kidney and Bladder Pill,
Of greatest curative properties,

storing the organs to their
normal condition.
