This company is the owner of

"Open threats have been
made that our works, our

Sabotage is publicly

THE open boast is made
that the numbering industry

all other industry, will be
paralyzed by this organiza-

by the intimidation Of labor
ers who are willing to work.
"A real and present danger to
the property of this company
exists in your county. Unless
protection is given to it it will
probably be burned and destroyed.
Our lawful operations in your
county can not be conducted be-
cause laborers who are willing to
work are fearful of their lives,
and are subjected to abuse,
threats and violence. Our camps,
when in operation, are visited by
individuals belonging to the said
organization and the men peace
tebly engaged in them threatened
with death if they do not cease
work. All sorts of injury by the
driving of spikes in logs, the de-

Emperor Celebrates Event at German
Great MISUNDERSTANDING at
Church Services In Berlin.


London. Jan. .-Telegraphing from
the German great headquarters to the
Berlin Academy of Science in reply to
birthday congratulations, Emperor
William reiterated the assertion that
the German people will obtain peace
by the sword, says Reuter- dispatch
from Amsterdam, which declares this
information was obtained from Ger
man newspapers. The emperor's mes
sage, as quoted, read:
THE unshaknble will to victory of
the German people, who are prepared
for every sacrifice of blood and treas
ure will, trust God, preserve the Fa-
therland from the ruin contemplated
by its enemies and will force by the
sword the peace necessary for the
blessed development of the people"
Berlin, Jan. 29.-The ffty-eighth
birthday of Emperor William was OBJ
served with manifestations in keeping
with war conditions.
The empress and Prince Henry of
Prussia and his eldest son, Prince
Waldemar, attended the celebration Mt
German great headquarters.
The emperor issued an order of gen.
eral amnesty. Celebrations were held
in all the schools, high schools and
universities.
Services held at the cathedral in
Berlin on the occasion of the German
emperor's birthday were attended by
James w. Gerard, the United States
ambassador to Germany, and by the
diplomatic representatives here of Ar
gentina, China, Spain, Denmark and
Norway. ....-
At a meeting in the Berlin city hall
held to celebrate the emperor's birth
day, Adolph Wermuth, the lord mayor,
spoke of the economic and social con-
ditions which would prevail after The
war had been brought to q close. lie
is quoted by the Overseas News agency
as saying:
places must be kept open for those
who return, and work must he made
pleasant for them. In conjunction
with the bells of peace win ring the
bells of liberty, for nobody's harm aud
for everybody's JOY. Liberty means
that disorder Is inferior to order. Lib
erty opens the way for emergencies,
making for progress, and it also is ca
pable of being concentrated in common
work. Liberty is order.
"Never has the German nation been
more firmly united with the emperor
than now when he appeals to us in
order to prove that the hostility OF
our enemies is grave mistake, and
that his pure intentions will be last
ing and truthful"
