Within the past day or so the Capt.

ljects of the grange. In the near fu-
ture these will be set out in full in
its columns, but in the meanwhile in

igrange has gone out Of its way to pass
resolutions concerning President Kerr
and the board of regents of the Ore
Igon Agricultural college, quotation
from the declaration of purposes OF
the Patrons. of Husbandry adopted by
the national grange in 1874 and which
today are the base and foundation of
principles ON which the grange stands,

We are opposed to such spirit and
management Of any corporation or en-
Iterprise as tends to oppress the peo'
pie and rob them of their just profits
We are not enemies to capital, but VIC
oppose the tyranny of monopolies. We
long to see the antagonism between
capital and labor removed by common
consent, and by an enlightened states
manship worthy of the nineteenth cen
tury. We are opposed to excessive sal
arics, high rates of interest, and exor-
bitant per cent profits in trade. They
greatly increase cur burdens, and do
not bear proper proportion to the
profits of producers
1t was in carrying out this principle

til the congestion has been relieved.
Unloading of Cars


MeAdoo virtually gave his support
to Senator Nelson S bill to compel un-
loading of cars within seven days,
when he said the use of
cars as warehouses had seriously COM
plicated the situation.
He told how he had increased de-
Imurrage charges to reduce the prac-
tice of letting loaded cars stand in
terminals, but admitted this has not
completely remedied the trouble.
"Please tell what, in your opinion,
were the reasons why government CON
troll was necessary" requested Sena-
tor Robinson.
McAdoo replied that aside from OBJ
vious need for centralized control to
combine the facilities of the roads,
government control was needed to sta
bilize the railroads finances.
"With $1,OOO,000,0O0 of railroad Sc
eurities gradually shrinking in value,
a serious menace to the country g cred
it had arisen, he said. Government
control vas necessary to remove that
danger. ~
Releasing Some Roads
GAS fast as our investigations now
in progress disclose that railroads are
not essential to the general transpor-
tation schemes,' said McAdoo, "they
are being released from government
control -
Approximately eight hundred of
these small roads, representing a ST.
000,000,000 investment, are in the
"twilioht zone" of control, the COM
mittee was told. McAdoo insisted that
inasmnch as she direction of these
government control, the government
was not liable for any compensation to
those roads turned back.
Constructively, at least, he said, ev-
cry road had been taken over under
the president s permission.
"I don t think the government
should draft needless railroad that
will burden the treasury" said Nc
Adoo. "The treasury has all it can
carry. Incidental loss due to the war
will have to be borne.
Protect Short Lines
"The short line railroads will be
given fair chance to exist and will
get all the help we can give.
cit seems to me the short line rail
roads are hollering' before they are
hurt.
McAdoo said he consideres one of
his first tasks is to determine by in
vesfiqation just what railroads are 10
be tGHen over by the government and
notify them. He clearly indicated the
policy viii be to compensate only
those roads which definitely are tax
en- over by the government
"War necessity and the public in
terest should dictate what lines we
should take,' McAdoo said.
McAdoO assured Senator Underwood
that fbaby roads" will be given the
same opportunity to get cars and bus
mess as other lines. He said he believ-
es all lines should be kept running so
that no details Of the eountry's s trans
portation system shall be lost in this
time Of great need
"But we can t legislate regarding
anticipated fears or difficulties, said
McAdoo. We We got to hold ourselves
to the supreme task. -
Senator Robinson asked what prin-
ciples viii determine whether a short
line road should be taken over.
The only determining principle is
our opinion as TO the need" MeAdoo
said. eff a need develops later we II
take over more roads than we now

road commissioner, before the house
interstate commerce committee, de-
clared McAdoo had too much power
and urged that authority to fix rates
be left with the interstate commerce
commission.
"The time may come" he said,
"when it will be necessary to abolish
our institutions-to abolish courts, the
constitution and even congress itself
and to put all power in the hands of
one man, but that time is not yet"
Thorne made the following points Of
warning:
That a vast political machine among
railroad employees may be created if
the wage adjustment board, announced
by MeAdoo, is allowed "to become a
mere puppet in the director general IS
hands"
That the efforts Of the railroads to
make government operation distaste-
full must be guarded against.
That the guaranteeing Of returns
may remove all incentive 10 Ibnuer inc

f'It means only financial disaster
for many of the small roads that have
been struggling along for years trying
to get on their feet" DeBernardi
testified, "for the roads under gov
ernment control would naturally re-
ceive government preference.
rEvery railroad system, no matter
how great it is, is in some measure de-
pendent on the small railroad, no mat

DR.. Garfield's fuel conservation order

At the opening prices were virtually
unchanged. Later fractional recessions
were the rule in the first half hour
save for oil stocks, which were relative
ly well bought with Mexican Petrol
cum and California Petroleum leading.
Elsewhere the industrial list offered
little feature. The early dip, however,
was somewhat more than recovered but
initiative was lacking at all times. The

PORT COMMISSION ELECTION


While not considered quite so important as the
late November election, yet in fact the election
today Saturday is every whit as important
it and it therefore is the unqualified duty of
every voter of Seattle to turn out and vote today
for port commissioner, but before you do so, give
those, who are seeking your suffrage on this
casion not only the once, but the twice and thrice
over
Lest you conclude that we do not practice what
preach, permit to say that we have thor
oughly done and after due deliberations have
to the conclusion to support and to recon-.
mend to you for your favorable consideration
Richard NJ ButtIe for Port Commissioner of Sc
attIe. Two others are seeking this self-same po-
sition, but it's of the incumbent, of whome we
propose to discuss in connection with this election,
for moment. For the past nine yearsC. E. Rems-
berg has held this position without pay. The P.-I.
has repeatedly pointed out that Mr.. Remsberg has
sought this position for selfish motives and he
has not publicly denied the accusations. Bob
Bridges has held corresponding position and has
been Remsberg's chief colleague. Both of them
have extensive realty holdings and it has been
publicly charged that the port commission has
made it's improvements with an eye single to the
realty holdings of Remsberg and Bridges Since
Mr. Remsberg has held this "thankess job' the
bank in which he was one of the chief stockhold-
has gone to the wall, but in spite of that
since he has lived in luxury and occupied spacious
private offices, where his extensive realty hold
ings have been handled. Is there niger in the
wood pile? Remsberg and Bridges as members
of the port commission, worked together like the
gold dust twins and dictatorially domineered the
Of
Chiteenden to resign and they have ridden over
T. P. Lippy rough shod. Bridges is now turning
heaven and earth, iguratively speaking to have
Remsberg elected, which leads us to suspect that
there may be another niger in the wood pile If
Remsberg should be defeated there might be
things uncovered that would reflect on Bridges.
Remsberg and Bridges have conformity fought to
prevent the election of port commissioners that
would lose to them the control of the board and
they must have had a reason for doing So
Why should a colored person vote for Remsberg
for port commissioner for under his control it has
steadily refused to give single colored man en-
ployment though it has been employing hundreds
of working men, While Mr.. Buttle is making no
promises as to what he will do, yet he can do no
worse, far colored men are concernde than
have Remsberg and Bridges and any change must
be for the better. To hear the conclusion of the
whole matter trust the readers of Caytons
Weekly will support Richard M. Buttle for port
commissioner. Do not fail to vote today!

BETTER ARMED

American troops are armed
with a faster firing and more ac-
curate rife than used by the Ger
mans, according to our expert de-
signers, manufacturers, and
marksmen, says a statement by
the Bureau of Ordnance. One
military critic and writer claims
the German Mauser does not per-
NIT the most skilled user to get
more than so per cent Of the fir
ing speed Of the modified Enfield
adopted for the United States SER
vice.
The superiority claimed for the
American weapon is supported on
three counts: Quicker firing as a
result Of bolt-handle design and
quicker sighting as result Of
sight design, greater accuracy Of
bullet fight resulting from bullet
design and greater mechanical ac-
curacy of chamber and bore.

PLAN Is STROKE OF GENIUS

If there is any lesson that Amer
leans need to learn, it is the les
son of thrift. The boy who saves
paves the way to success. It be-
comes a part Of his character.
Today we have a real chance.
The war provides both a motive
and method. The motive is not
a selfish one. It is the appeal OF
our country and of democracy.
The Government must have our
money if the war is to be won.
The method is practical and SIM
pie. 1t puts within the reach Of
anyone the privilege of sharing
in this great struggle. The War
Savings Stamp plan was a stroke
of genius. Every community,
school, church, union, and lodge
should organize at once a War
Club and facilitate the prompt
and continuous sale Of War
Stamps among its members.-M
