The friends Of Miss Mabel Welborn
will be glad to learn that she has just
passed the danger point Of what is gem

under the late County Clerk Allen 3 ad-
ministration, being graduate Of tho
law school Of Willamette University
aud recently an employe in the secre.
tary Of state s office. The young lady

Lowson viii Not
Hang Bob Morgan
Superintendent Of Prison Says He Win
Resign Rather Than Execute
Boy at Prison.

The Capital Journal has it from re-
liable authority that Mr.. Lawson, super
of the prison, has sent word
to Governor West that if the boy, Rob-
ert Morgan is to be hanged, that the
resignation of Superintendent Lawson
is on file. Mr.. Lawson says he has no
compunetions 5f conscience about car
rying out the law and executing a
criminal, under average circumstances,
but that he is determined that he will
not hang a boy of that age, even though
it is simply one of the duties of his
official position, and that if this SEN
tence must be carried out that some
other person will have to do the work.
His language to the governor as told
The Capital Journal was;
" | would not hang that boy for all
the jobs on earth, and my resignation
is in your hands should you decide the
sentence must be carried. out"
1t would seem from this that the
governor will have to appoint a new
superintendent Of the prison if Morgan
is hanged. The governor has made nc
intimation as to his action, but with
his well known ideas on capital punish
ment generally, it is fair to presume
that Morgan's sentence will be com
muted.

Federation of
Labor Raped
Berger Declares 1t Is Out of Tune With
International Labor Movement
and Non-Progressive.
BY VICTOR L. BERGER,
(Former Socialist Congressman from
wisconsin,

"AoSuhoA1s|
Milwaukee, Wis, Sept. IL" Looking
backward, l find the workingman of
the United States, generally speaking,
is receiving higher wages than ever
before. But / believe that beyond
question he is worse off now than he
was ten years ago,
"True, he gets better pay, but this
increase has not kept up with the in
creased cost of living and the Garner
cannot buy as much today with his
weekly wages as he could with half as
much ten years ago.
81 am sorry to say that the trades
union movement has been at stand
still for the past few years. In the
first place, this is because the American
Federation of Labor is out of tune with
the international labor movement; it is
non-progressive 80 far as the political
activities of union men are concerned
New movements that have sprung up
with the general labor movement are
due to the non.prOgressive tendency of
the American Federation of Labor.
One of the new movements is the In,
dustrial Workers of the World, and an
other is the so.called Militia of Christ.
The former movement is well known in
America and the latter is fostered by
the Roman Catholic church. "

MUST VOTE ON BONDS
AND FIND OUT LATER

There seems to be wide variance
of opinion as to the legality Of the
coming bond election, on account Of
the registration laws being so drawn
that they are capable Of several con.
structioDs. Many are Of the opinion
that the registration laws have not
been complied with, and that should
the bonds carry they will be again
held up. It seems, so far as The Cap.
ital journal has been able to learn.
that no legal opinion has been secured
on this point, and II would not matter
now II il had, for the time for regis.
tration has expired and the election
must ego as it lays" II it is held
that the registration laws have been
complied with, then in case the bond

more serious than delay, which is Ger
tain to occur, while eastern attorneys

Il is unfortunate that this is so, buI
