other word or look he left the house.
Perplexed.
After Clifford had gone I wondered
why-angry as he had seemed the night
before-he had let me off SO easily
True he had forbidden me to go TO pub

Mr. Fulton, aSO knows should know, that if this
law raises wages by shortening hours it does not
sary mean increase of freight rates. The railroads
made enough money during the last fiscal year to stand
the raise without appreciably feeling it. Besides Mr.
Fulton has not figured out the details of the raise if there
is onet will take the commission of experts weeks to do
this work devotng their entire time to the work The
statement made in the Hood River speech was only
cheap sectional appeal to the people of that community in
order to obtain their votes under false preense 1t is
not legal but rather moral misdemeanor
The Oregonian this morning contIadicts ex-senator

Of course, if the railroad trainmen have to work

to reduce rates. If it's the kind of law the Oregonian
this morning says it is what becomes of all the bunk the
Oregonan, Hughes Roosevelt, Fulton ct al have been
preaching from day to day about congress being held up
and sandbagged into passing law benefttng only the
railroad trainmen at the expense of the public?

They astrde the fence bidding for thesuppor of all

Meantime Wilson's strength with the people is grow
