Golden Wedding at Elgin

Tuesday evening, the school
house at Elgin was the scene
of an occasion of joyous
festivity, when friends and re-
latives of Mr.. and Mrs. Reuben
Collie gathered in remembrance
of the fiftieth anniversary of
their wedding, which took place
n Kentucky a half century age.
By a little strategy Mrs. S.
e. Harrison induced her mother,
(Mrs. Collie) to dress for the
evening, and then invited her
to go to the school house to
witness some local doing. The
surprise of the lady was COM
|plete, when on arrival at the
place at finding that the doing
was in honor of herself.
A short address appropriate
to the occasion was made by
Rev. w. Frazier Smith Of No
gales, who was among the
guests. And after a most de-
lightful evening of social en-
joyment an elegant collation.
was served, all present doing
full justice to the delicious
viands. 0
At a late hour the assem-
blage dispersed wishing the
aged couple many years yet of
welded bliss.
In this connection it is ap-
propriate to state that Mr.. and
Mrs. Collie have reared eleven
and they have twenty
six grand children, with one
great grand child-Master
William Anderson, whose mo-
ther is a daughter of Mrs. S. T.
Harrison, and the grand daugh-
ter of Mr.. and Mrs. Collie.

nor of the occasion inrluded Mr..

May Use Convicts to
Make War Supplies
(By1 T. N. 81,

(By I. N. 81 ,
Washington, December 19.
Great Britain and Canada
have already employed convict
labor to manufacture war sup
piles. And now Senator Hoke
Smith, of Georgia, proposes
that the same thing be done in
this country.
His idea is to equip Federal
prisons with necessary ) manu-
featuring machinery and
utilize the prisoners to turn out
the finished product. Other
non-contract prisons may par
ticipate.
| The introduction of the prison
labor bill is. the result of CO.
Operation Of the American Fed
|eration of Labor, the Depart
ment of Labor, the Department
|of War and the National Com
mittee on Prisons and Prison
Labor. 'Tt," so a statement
says, marks the taking of a
new trench in the fight against
the exploitation Of the prisoner
and free labor; in addition to
freeing his labor for war work"
At it's last session Congress
appropriated money for shops
at Atlantic, Fort Leavenworth
at McNeill Island penitentiaries.
This development was approved
by the officers of the American
Federation of Labor, which is
now pressing the nationwide
extension of the State-use sys-
tenn. If this is done, the Fed
eral Government can increase
the nations productivity,
economic for insufficient labor
power and benefit the prisoner
and the free workingman.
The bill authorizes the Sec
retary Of War and the Sec
retary of the Navy to employ
military prisoners in the manu-
facture of war supplies and
in the construction of military
roads. Army prisoners are al
ready. used on road work within
national army cantonments.
The bill would make possible
such use on roads leading to the
cantonments.
In many instances the lack of
good road connections with the
railroads and main highways
r likes transportation of food
md supplies a matter of con-
siderable difficulty in bad
weather.

10 all such the answer has beer
that we consider The Interna
tional News Service just as
good. And there are other rea.
sons against The Associated
Press, that are set forth here

Now, then, as this newspaper
understands it the function OF
a neWsgathering association
is to give fair, unbiased, un.
colored accounts of important
happenings. It is not the in
tention of ''The Oasis" to ente1
into any controversy with any
one over this matter; but in
lorder to show the estimation in
which the Associated Press is
held by a large part of the
American public, we make bold
to reproduce the following CON-
|munication from the New Re
lpublic, a metropolitan magazine
of the first of December, which
bore the caption "The AS
s-ociated Press and l. w. W."
Sir: In the New Republic,
ISSUE of October 9th, MI
Frederick Roy Martin, assistant
general manager of the AS
sociated Press, takes exception
to Mr.. Charles Mertz's remarks
about the attitude of the press
on the troubles between the I.
". w. and the Western Mine
IOwners, claiming that 'The AS
sociated Press has endeavered
to have it's staff men wherever
aere have been serious dis
.urbances, and to report them
irly." a4a is.sg..
Just what does Mr.. Martin
mean by fairly ?" Is it a fai,
.eport of any happening to re
port all the evil that can pos
sibly be charged against the
Istriking miners and lumber
workers and not give an intima-
ton of the causes leading to
their rebellion against their en-
Iployers
Were the reports sent out by
The Associated Press from
West Virginia regarding the
Miners strike three or four
years ago fair? Those sent out
from Ludlow? Those sent out
from the great Mesaba Iron
Range strike? Those sent out
regarding the strike of the
Northwestern and Louisiana

for sometiliEs like fair Wage
and haman conditions of ex-
istence, all the power of the
press was thrown against them
and what l have always mar
yelled at is, not that they made
threats of sabotage, bu. that
they conducted themselves as
lpeaceably as they did.
Every outrage from eviction
and blacklisting to being strap
ped to logs and whipped was
visited upon them, yet the AS
Isociated Press was silent so far
as all they suffered, the deep
causes that led to their des-
|perate rebellion. They were
charged, just as the miners and
lumber workers of the West are
being charged today. with Gin
tending" to commit every crime
in the calendar, and some that

lurid charges was that they in
tended to set the forests on
fire, when, as a matter of truth,
the southern forests will not
burnt is a fact that fires are
often set in the winter to burn
the grass and under brush.
l do not charge The Associat-
led Press management with be-
ing responsible for all this, but
the cases | have cited above, to
say nothing of the pail of
silence thrown over the Mooney
case in San Francisco, is fast
placing the Associated Press in
position where no one believes
a word it says about any great
strike or labor trial. The work.
ers now simply expect its des-
atches to do all possible to pre-
judice their case; expect it to
first raise a storm; such as
that which preceded the arrest
of Haywood and the other Of
ficers of the l. w. W., all of
which was against the workers,
and then shut off all the news,
especially that favorable to the
Unionists, while they are in
Jail and being tried.
| assert that such tactics on
the part of so powerful an
organization as The Associated
Press is neither in the interests
of the government nor to the
welfare of the American peo-
Iple as a whole, for if it will not
give a fair and impartial report
of such vital happenings the
people and the government are
left in the dark as to what mea-
sures and remedies will relieve
the economic pressure causing
these desperate revolts of great
masses of men; for men do not
go on strike and face hunger
and prison for no cause what
