The Ely miner. [volume] (Ely, Minn.) 1895-1986, 1919-09-12

John Spargo, breaker boy in British
coal mines, teacher, university pro-
fessor, lecturer on economics, So
cialist speaker and propagandist and
finally, loyal American and anti-pac-
fist enough to be thrown bodily out
of the Socialist party in America
along with Charles Edward Russell,
J. G. Phelps-Stokes and others--makes
bitter indictment of Bolshevism and
traces its origin to the /. w. w. of
the country in an extended article
in the September number of NC
Cures Magazine. He states:
"Nikola Lenine, the Red Premier OF
Russia, told friend of mine not
long ago that he had derived his
chief inspiration from, and that the
Bolshevist Soviet government was
based upon, the ideas of our Ameri-
can product, the l. w. w. 1t was
here in the United States that, as far
back as 1905, movement of wage
earners arose having for its OBJ
ject the substitution of what is now
called Soviet Government for politi-
cal government by parliamentary
methods.
"The epitaph of Bolshevism was
composed long ago when it was writ
ten of the ancient Gauls that "They
shook all States and founded none. "
The Bolsheviki have neither founded
new States nor made any other ad-
dition to the constructive powers of
mankind. Not a single institution
or principle of enduring value can be
discerned in the whole mass of Boil
shevist propaganda, intrigue and ex-
perimentation. It is negative,
destructive, disintegrating force. 1t

as in Russia, almost wholly destroy
ing the entire structure of organized
society and extinguished the light of
civilization. In those nations in
which government has been les bru-
tally tyrannical than Russia knew
under the Prussian-led Romanoffs
and in which the people have been
accustomed to the self-discipline
of a vastly greater degree OF
freedom and political responsible.
ty, Bolshevism has been less influen'
tial for evil. 1t has been thwarted
by the superior strength which gov
ernments based on widely diffuseG
privileges and powers always enjoy
"And yet this is the kind of govern.

labor have allowed themselves to be

lated into our national life. In most
cases they came to America full OF
faith in democracy, expecting far toe
much from it, and their faith has been
destroyed, and replaced by grim des.
pair. America has taken them into
it's industrial life but has failed to win
their affectionate trust. The basis
for profoundly great patriotism is
therefore lacking. The seriousness
of this failure lies in the fact that
alone among the great nations of the
modern world, we have come to de-

Would Raise Bounty On
Mole And Gopher ScaIps

The Marion county delegation intro
duced this afternoon bill raising the
bounty on mole and gopher scalps. On
squirrels the bills proposes to leave the
bounty at five cents.
The 1917 legislature reduced the
scalp bounty on moles, gophers and
squirrels from ten cents to five cents
and as result the funds in the coun-
~ clerk : office have not been used
up this year. When the bounty was
10 cents, the bounty was generally ex-
hausted as early as May of each year.
The money to raise this tax is one
mill on every dollar of assessed prop
erty in Marion county and has been
averaging about $4,000. For tho gear
1918, there was left in the hands of
the county clerk, sl654 of this money.
Tho bill was introduced by the Ma
rion county delegation by request as
it seems to be the general opinion that
10 was worth more than five cents to
get q mole or gopher scalp.

CRIMINAL SYNDICALSN
. AGAIN COMES TOFRONT
Labor Representatives Have
Turned Attack From Red
Flag To This Bill.

The criminal syndacalism bill occu
pied the attention of the house or rath.
er the attention Of the two labor repre-.
sentativcs from Portland as they spoke
all morning on the bill.
The bill defines criminal syndacalism
as g. doctrine which advocates crime
and violence and and destruction Of
property Or other unlayful acts as a
means Of accomplishing industrial or
political ends, or ss a means Of effect
ing industrial revolution.
1t is against the passage Of the bill
that the two labor Representatives are
making their biggest fight. Yesterday
labor made fight against the carrying
of red flag or any other emblem in
dicating disloyalty and today is against
the teaching of doctrine advocating
unlawful acts as a means Of industrial
reforms.
In the red flag bill which passed late
yesterday afternoon but Is votes were
lined up with labor.
Representative Kubli who associated
with Senator Dimick in presenting the
bill spoke briefly in favor of the bill
claiming that the I. w. w. element
against which criminal syndacalism is
directed almost disorganized organized
labor in Portlsnd.
The labor representatives, Smith and
Horne, claim there is better way of
handling lawlessness than in passing
lsws against it. Mr.. Horne said the
bill was piece of useless and foolish
legislation and Mr.. Smith claimed that
while the Legislators were Attempting
to reguate society and restrict IL, no
bills had been introduced along the line
Of industrial and economic problems.

Gasoline and specific gravity was un-
der discussion last evening by the ju.

tion from Portlsnd as well as men in.
terested in Salem gasoline were on hand
to make their views known.
The rumpus over gasoline started
when Representative Martin Of Marion
county introduced a bill providing thai
the specific gravity be raised from 81
degrees to IS.
The Standard Oil interests, represent
ed by Mr.. Day and Mr.. Hamilton Of
Portland, appeared before the judiciary
committee and argued against the pass
ing of bill raising the standard Of
gasoline. Their argument Yves that with
four oil companies in Salem competition
would adjust matters and that it would
be unnecessary to specify exactly what
would be legal
The Standard people not only were
opposed to raising the specific gravity
of gasoline, but were in favor of repeal
ing the present law requiring specific
gravity Of Sc degrees, again basing
theil arsument On the fact that eompe
titioa would regulate the standard,
The Auto Dealers association sent ref
resentatiFes TO Salem Yesterday to ufge
the passing Of the III providing for q
spccAfic gravity Of IS cegroes, claiming
that the better the gasoline, the better
it would be for automobiles.
This view was conceded in by Wick
Bros, Mr.. Gilbert ana Mr.. Dclano and
Portland dealers who appeared before
the Judiciary committee last evening
this committee having charge Of the bill
The Standard Oil people suggested
that instead of flat law making s.
degrees legal that each large tank OF
gasoline be labeled with its specific
gravity and by this means the purchaser
would know just what he was puying
IS the matter now stands before the
committee, the local as well as Port,
land dealers sre urging higher stand
ard for gasoline.
