LETTER FROM RALPH BAILY 1
Portland, Ore.
May 19, 1918

 To the Readers of the Dear Old
 Picayune, ant my friends in
 Nevada County:
 Perhaps some of you would l ike to know of my work in the ship yard. The work is fine, no hard work-or what we Arkan sas boys call hard work at all. l. is regular tho.
 Uncle Sam keeps his work g. ing all the time. We have nt time to sit down to rest, untl our eight hours are gone, anG then we have sixteen hours to dc just as we like, and we certainly do appreciate that,
 Probably somei of you woulc like to know what l am doing that l like so well. 1 am doing what they call passing rivets, and believe me they have to be caught when they are almost IT. a melting form, they are so hot. pass them to the riveter, he drives them. Sometimes l have to catch them on t' fly. d tse distance of about fifty or s.Nty feet. and of course 1 miss 9ae now and then. Bat when l nis> one it always hits ne. so you see ther. 1 stop them every tHae Grey come towards me t nap pened last week that stopped one just below my short ribs, and you know am branded or the side next to the fence.
 Well, so much for the work. It is fine work and l like it. Our wages are fairly good. We ge, raise this week, from s y to s 96 per day.
 We certainly had a fine trip out here, and enjoyed it very much. We travelled through 5 different states. saw some beau- tiful scenery. There were sever al changes in the climate. While crossing the Rockies, 1t seemed that the snow would block the train, and of course this was no ticeable to Nevada County lad. especially in the spring of the year.
 We have seen some beautiful fscessery since ve arrived in Port land. It is needless for me to try to tell of all the scenery. But one thing will mention ls my trip 10 Council Crest. This place is about four miles from the city It is what l would call a peak. It has a car line wound around il to the top. Is 1200 feet above the city of Portland, and from the summit of this place you can get birdseye view Cf the city. They have a tower on top of this place, and tourists come from all over the world 10 go up in this and take a view of the surroundings. You can see for miles away. It is said to he one of the worlds greatest closer Yatories. On top of this place is what you might call a park. Have all kinds of amasements.

 As to our ships, Uucle Sam is certainly putting out some dandy ships, and 1 think 1t will take some rough treatment to send one beneath the waves. It is certainly some sight to see one of those large steel ships launch ed, bat it is no trick flor one to be launched. They slide them into the river on greased logs. These boats are about 250X90X 100 it. 1 do not know the weight of them, but you can imagine the weight when there's no wood about them. They are made ot the very best of steel. They are something grand, something that will serve our country, even after the war is over.
 Now to my friend, tor pre- tended to bel who l learned since came and joined Uncle Sam in the ship building service, criticised me and said that l was coming to shun U. s. war ser vice, and was light under the hat for doing so.
 want you, my friend to know, tiff you have ever attained knowl- edge enough to read and happen to read this piece thatl came here for no other purpose except to join the J. ;. war service, and 1 am strictly in the hands of the government. Whatever they s4e lit 10 do with me l am ready and willing. If it is to build ships Tm ready. if to 20 across the deeB, I'm wiling. For l re- aize it mas to be done and the sooqertae better with me 1 think a man who cant see that this ship building is war service is little bit light under the hat.
 Now my friend, instead of criticising other copies patriot ism. you might show some of yours. The Army or Navy will accept men of your age any day. And the Third Liberty Loan campaign has Just closed. How much bond have you bought? You are a man of plenty and l am just one of Arkansas poor farmer boys. will put my bond against yours. s.a a.=., y...e.,= Ny good friend, l want to make one request of you. When you get so full of that junk you tell. that you can't stand It, please step off down to the creek bottom, alone, and let 'er fly. For it doesn't sound good to any one, and l am sure you will feel better by not saying such things.
 have learned by personal ex : perience that it is always better to keep silent when one doesn't know what they are talking about.
 Probably yon would feel better if you would subscribe five or ten dollars to the Red Cross now and then.

selfseeking demagogues, who, the ac-
tual farmers and the actual laboring
men of our state will sooner or later
find, are nothing but pretended
friends, wolves parading in sleeps

You, who appear to be the executive
secretary of this organization, were
the attorney who defended the muir
derers in the l. W. w. trouble on the
range two years ago, and who has
assisted the l. W. w. organization,
which has publicly announced that it
is its intention ultimately to take the
farms from the farmers, whose head
quarters since the commencement of
the war have been raided by the fed
eral government. and whose members
are Low taking refuge in such organi-
cations as the National Nonpartisan
league.
How, under such circumstances, the
farmers of Minnesota, who have been
threatened with the loss of their
farms, who have time and time again
been compelled to appeal to peace Of
ficers for protection against the MEM
bers of this lawless anarchistic or
ganization, can now join league with
promoters whose sympathies have been

ment in our society, Is well nigh IN

Another reason for declining your
invitation is the possibility of constru-
ing my presence at your partisan cam
paign rally by some as an Endorsement
of your propaganda 1t is, of course,
the. duty of the governor to be fair to
all classes and to oppose any program
which is apt to result in division OF
our state into classes. Such arraylng
of class against class would be wei
come by the enemies of cur republic,
for such a course will tend to defeat
our nation in this war and will even
tually mean the dissolution of our
form Of government and the UNDER
mining of the economic and polltlcal
freedom of our people.

heavily on one class than another,
who make statements which in some
way or another will lengthen the con-
| f1ict by causing dissatisfaction at
home and thus indirectly cause the
death, of additional thousands, if not
millions of our fellow citizens on Eu-
ropean battlefields.
We all agree that war profiteers
should be dealt with as drastically as
| it is possible to deal with them. But
it cannot be said that this is a rich

most from it would have made greater
profits if the United States had not
entered it. | hold no brief for any
class, but to make the farmers or la
boring men believe their sons are dis
eliminated against in this war, as i'm
piled in your statement of principles,
is reasonable conduct, for the rich
mans sons are conscripted proper
tlonately to greater extent than
some of the farmers and laborers.
Your leaders are continually at
lacking what you term "big business"
Personally | am as strongly opposed
as anyone to what is known as gov
eminent by big business. | would be
equally opposed to a government by
any particular industrial class. The
public official who would allow him
self to be controlled by the self-ap-
pointed guardians of some element Of
society would thereby render himself
unfit to hold public office. If |, as
governor of this state, would permit
myself to be put in a position where
| could be compelled to cater to any
particular set of men, | could not be
fair to organized or unorganlzed la
Dor, to farmers organizations, to big
business or to little business.
Knowing as l do, the political am
billions of your organization and the
false charges that some of its leaders
and agents have made through your
official newspapers against honest
and patriotic public officials, | cannot
believe that back Of the invitation you
have sent me is any sincerity of pur-
pose. The. failure on the part of any
one to turn over the state government
TO those of your officers who have as
sumed the organization of the alleged
Nonpartisan league and the control of
the millions OF dollars collected from
its members, viii undoubtedly create
opposition. but | know that such men,
pretending to be friends of some par-
tieuiar class and deceiving some we'll

Arthur LIE Suer, executive secre-

que, St. Paul, Mimi:
Dear Sir-Your invitation to ad-
dress the Nonpartisan campaign is
tary, the National Nonpartisan
League, st. Paul, Mimi:
The name of your league implies
that it is non-partisan, but in fact
there is no organization more partisan.
At this time, when other political par
ties are trying to put aside, for the
good of the country, any factlonai
spirit that might exist, your organiza-
ton is doing everything within its
power to increase it.
At the time of our entrance into the
European conflict your organizers con-
demmed our government for entering
the war. When it became apparent
that this course would result in disas-
ter for their organization, they chang
ed their course and made an eleventh
hour claim to pure loyalty, but, not
outstanding this claim, the National
Nonpartisan league is party of dis
content. 1t has drawn to it the pro-
German element of our state Its
leaders have been closely connected
with the lawless |. w. W. and with the
Red Socialists, pacifists and peace ad-
yocates, whose doctrines are Of benefit
to Germany, are among their numbers.
Those in charge of the league have
catered to that faction of labor which
has violated the law and been opposed
to compliance with just orders of duly
constituted authority.
You, who sign yourself as the exec
utive secretary of the league, were
connected with the Peoples council.
