The Leader is in receipt OF 8 COM
munication from It's good friend. Ben

may be Of interest to local motorists.
Il shows that Oregon contains no less
than 23.600 motor car owners, but we
venture to say that the country editors
among them may be numbered on the
fingers Of one hand. Mr.. OIcott says:
sTndications In the motor vehicle
registration department are that un-
less automobile and motorcycle own

spond very soon to notices sent them
early this month In the shape OF blank
applications. there will be conges-
tion Of work In the department which
will make It impossible to supply
many Of the licenses, tags and badges
by the first OF the year when the old
licenses become void.
THE work OF registration for 1915
was begun earlier than usual this
year IN order to allow ample time to
secure number plates by the first Of
the year Blank applications were
sent to all the $4,000 auto and truck
owners. ITS dealers. 400 chauffeurs
and 1900 owners OF motorcycles nearly

The great European powers are
fighting for national existence In q
war OF unprecedented violence and
magnitude. Obseased with malice,
they are no more apt 10 respect the
rights OF neutral nations than are gun
men in q street fight apt to respect the
INNOCENT bystander. The rules OF i'm
Iternational warfare win be Interpreted
to suit themseIves--or disregarded al
together when they have no reason
to fear the consequences.
Our relations with England seem
now TO be reaching a critical stage.
They are In degree less serious than
our difficulty with Germany, because
In the one case lives were involved
Iand In this, property rights only. Yet
IL the rumor be true that Great Britain
intends to hold and use the American
ships which she hiss arbitrarily seized.
|it will mean diplomatic problem OF
almost as grave nature as the one

II Germany had not met with almost
complete failure in her submarine
campaign, she would undoubtedly
have continued Indifferent to the de-
Imands OF the United States. 81 e

BUsby's figures show the car mems
average wage to be $S9O.4O a year.
This is but two-thirds of the amount
which VIM. D. MahOn, president of
the car men, said was enough to
properly support family with three
children.
Busby thought thep resent average
wage of S74.20 a month was sufficient
for the decent support of a car man
and his family Busby, it will be re-
membered, gets $4,000 a year in sal
airy from the Surface Lines.
The hearings yesterday were to
have continued till II p. m, but at

REGULAR BENEVOl
One would think, to hear and heed
the testimony of Leonard A. Busby,
that the Chicago Surface hines was a
benevolent institution.
Busby, president of the Surface
Lines, spent his Fourth in the witness
chair before the arbitration commit
tee.
His testimony was mass of statls-
tics, presented in so exhibits, mostly
lengthy tables of figures.
BUsby is depending upon his Stats
tics to prove that the car men Of Chi
cagO are not deserving Of raise in
wages. Of course, the statistics pre-
sented by Busby all favored the COM
pany. The yweTe compiled by the
cOmpany's statisticians.
Some of them were of such nature
that the board had to take vote to
see if it would be admitted.
When a table was introduced COM
pairing Chicago wages with wages
paid car men in 20 other cities, Mac
lay Hoyne of the arbitration board
openly announced that he, would not
give such evidence the least cOnsid-
Grafton in deciding the award. This
table was admitted because the board
had earlier ruled that it would not
restrict any evidence that might
throw light on the siatutiOn, no mat
ter if it did seem improper. Atty
LeBOsky for the men protested
against the table because it was
hand-picked and left out cities that
paid high wages, some of them AZ
cents an hour.
Busby was cornered in his testi-
mOny when he tried to glOrify his
company as a tender-heaTted philan-
thTOpist. He told of the men being
granted a few minutes at the END Of
each trip. He first said that this was

PIONEER RESIDENT CALLED.
J. B. Anderson Died Last Saturday at
His Home at Epson Following
Extended Illness.

John b. Anderson, a resident
of Epson for the past % years,
passed away at his home last Satur-
day, May %, from a complication
of diseases. He had been in poor
health for several months aud for
several weeks was at the hospital
at Ashland, returning to Epson
without having gained any appreci-
able benefit and despite the strong
hopes for recovery suffered relapses
until death ensued. Mrs. Ander-
son, her sister, Mrs. Gibbs, NJ. ].
White and John Erickson were at
his bedside when the end came.
John Burns Anderson was born
in Griegsville, Livingstone county,
New York, May 20, 1847. He
was a graduate of Eastman College,
Poughkeepsie, N. Y, and when 10
years of age left New York for
Southern Michigan. Later he
went to Chicago, then to Chelsea,
Wis, and in 1887 to Epson. On
New Years Day in 1880 he was
married to Miss Augusta Ripley of
Grand Rapids. Wis.
Mr.. Anderson always shouldered
the problems of the community
and worked faithfully for their So
luton. 1t was due in part to his eff
forts that the village of UpsOn is
so healthy and beautiful, and that
town affairs ran so smoothly. He
was postmaster 80 years of his life,
5 years at Chelsea aud rs years at
Epson, resigning a few months
ago. He was town clerk for the
past % years, with the exception
of one year, when he held the Office
of chairman.
Funeral services were held Tues
day afternoon from the town hall
at Epson, Rev. Thompson of Hur-
ley conducting the services. Inter
ment took place in Greenwood
cemetery.
Epson friends feel that the COM
munity has suffered a great loss,
and our hearts go out in sympathy
to the bereaved widow.
