old 'CAC' ORDER
RESURRECTED IN
POSTAL SERVICE
Bu|eson's Petty Cars Would
Destroy Normal Activities
Of Postal Employees.

WASHIN GTON. Sept. ?. - The
rights of postal employs continue to
be flouted and the Roosevelt gag
order is revived by petty cars in
charge of the postoffice department.
In Chicago the officers Of the
Postal Clerks union are charged with
having printed statements in news
paper advertisements that reflected
on the postal service. There was
nothing new in the statements, which
had previously been made before
congressional committees. An appeal
has been made to the president
against this violation Of the Lloyd
Id Toilette law Of 1913. This act
was intended to set aside President
EoOsevelt's gag" order that no gov
eminent employee could petition con-
gless for redress Of grievances or
make protest, against these ,griev-
anceS without the consent Of their
department. chief. ,;
Postmaster Selph Of st. Louis, Mo-,
has created a new mark for postal
autocracy by his threat to stop the
mails of that city if the postal clerks
do not GUST the president of their
union. Selph said that he would dis
miss 800 clerks ii they did not hold
a new election. The clerks refused
to act and are awaiting the post
masters next move. The clerk
President has sued selph for $4,000
damages for SANDER.
In joint statement President
Hyatt and Secretary-Treasurer Fla
Of ho Nofi Fo1 of
Postal Clerks say that acts of con-
gress, intended to be beneficial to
the postal employees, are being used
by Postmaster General Burleson to
the disadvantage of these employees.
Under the law employees are en-
titled to 10 days sick leave each
year. This has been construed to
mean tentwelfths Of day month
This nullifies the intent of the law
unless an employe gets sick one day
a month and RECEIVERS in that period
per the Burleson schedule.
Another ruling by the department
that ignores every element of JUS
tice is shown IN the order that en-
ployes return wages paid for work
done on Sundays. The last congress
changed the rule that time should
be paid for Sunday work to time of
Or another day of the week. Now
the department takes advantage Of
the act and the time it became eff.
fective and has ordered all employees
who received wages for Sunday work
to return this money. The depart.
n1ent, however, refuses time off tt
employees who worked on Sundays, ir
spite of theh obvious fact that the,
are entitled to either one or the
other.

NEW YORK, Sept. s.--Labor un-

Bencker. representative Of a large
electrical concern. in a speech in this
city, following d six-months' tour of
Europe and the far east. I'm Asia,"
he said, Il found certain fundamental

The speaker said that American

conditions will be disappointed. but
that China offers the best field, be-
cause labor is plentiful-and it j!

Chief AMBITION
TO Be C|TIzENS
Most Aliens Anxious to Take
Out Papers; Ameilean|zatIon
Is Great Problem.

TO become American citizens is the
chief ambition of most aliens who are
Permitted to enter this country. At
tho present time there are about Is
million foreign-born residents Of the
United States. only about 81 per cent
OF whom are fully naturalized, and
the department of the interior esti-
mates that there are at least eight
million in the country who cannot
speak, read or write English,
Why, then. since the main desire
Of the alien is to become an; Ameri-
can, are there so many who fail to
reach the longed-for goal? Is it be-
cause the Americans themselves have
failed to put themselves into UNDER.
standing relations with the various
groups Of immigrants that are to be
found In all the larger cities and
| towns ct our country? Is it not true
that In order to successfully carry
| on an Americanization program we
must possess a real love for human
beings in our hearts?
Heart Is brotherhood.
1t has often been said that the
heart OF democracy is Brotherhood
each for all, but that the heart Of
autocracy is selt-seeking. We must
therefore be- sure that we are genu-
inc believers ourselves in brother
hood before we attempt to teach it to
others. -
Franklin X. Lane says OF the i'm
migrant: He can: find no one to
make him see the greater America.
Tho whole Of this. continent is to him
the cramped apartment, the dirty
street and the sWeatshop or factory:
To the sweep Of the great land and
its many beaconings his eyes are
closed. And in his isolation and ig-
norance and. disappointment there is
fruitful nesting place for all the hurt
fu] microbes that attack society. This
man is our charge. He needs and de-
serves care. ssohcitude, thoughtful
consideration. 1gnobly putt will
pay. More nanfully said-it is our
duty. Worthily-it Is our opportun-
ity.'
Dearn Race Traits.
| In order to- reach the alien heart,
therefore, We must learn about it's
race characteristics. and learn to
know the different races from their
point Of view. as we'll as from our
own. There are many definitions of
Amertcanization,* some OF the most
interesting Being as follows:
characterization IS the bringing
together OF ther old and new America.
It is the interm eta ton of America to
tho foreign born and the .interpreta-
ton ofthe foreign born to America"

.ROSTQN.SSfpt. s.-The Massachu-

tiles Is attempting to ascertain the
truth Of the claim that workers are
producing less than before the war. A
questitonnaire was forwarded to en-
ployers, but some replies were value
less because of changed processes Of
manufacture since 1914. From seven
establishments. however. it: is. shown
that In four instances hourly produce

shoe establishment reporting stated
that in its five leading departments
production Increased in every case.
The department Of labor and indus
tries states that 1t is Undertaking this
study to ascertain. the facts. and with
fine sarcasm, 1t says:
=. 1T has been maintained by many
writer's and speakers who, presum-
ably are conversant with industrial

large increases in wages which have
been granted since 1914 to employees
in nearly all industries, there has been

e. F. Banker of the Methow valley,
made flying visit to Oroville Friday
last, but owing to a press of business
he was unable. to spend but few
hours in this place. Mr.. Banker is the
democratic candidate for the legisla-
ture from this county, and he has no
opposition except from a nonpartisan
who stole the nomination on the re-
publican ticket at the primary election.
Mr.. Banker is no novice as a legisla-
tor as he is representing the county
in that body at the present time. And
moreover it can be said that no repre-
sentative from any CT the smaller
counties of the state, and mighty few
from any of the larger counties, has
made such a creditable record in the
legislature as this man Banker. DEM
ocrat though he may be we wish to
give Mr.. Banker full measure of credit
for his splendid work in the lower
house of the state legislature. He is
a power in that body and with his
knowledge of the ropes and his natural
ability Mr. Banker can do more for the
county than any man who could be
chosen for the office. Aside from his
acknowledged qualifications Mr.. Ban
ker is personally man whom it is 4
pleasure to know. He is as square AK
men are made, honorable in his deal
ings and an all around worthy citizen.
We havee known Mr.. Banker from the
time he was hardly more than a
young lad and in all those years. and
they are many, we have never heard
a word breathed against his integrity.
In his race for the legislature he
should have the backing of every voter
of the county irrespective of party. We
urge republicans to support him at
the general election, simply because
he has no republican opposition. No

country had trouble enough during the
war with foreign born inhabitants

the lid is closed down upon indiscrim-

worse and it is hoped that with a re-

people seem willing to give the repub-
licans another chance, but if they do
not make good during the next four
years, then it is toll the bell for the

There has been less red fire and
brass band mixed up with the present
campaign than during any campaign
prior to the election for president
within memory. 1t is true that there
are flocks of speakers fluttering over
the country, but they do not draw out
large audiences, the audiences are
either apathetic or mildly enthusiast
tic, and there is an absence of individ-
ual discussions that heretofore has
generally followed the street corner
meeting of party advocates. The fact
is people have made up their minds
how they are going to vote, and see no
reason to hip and hurrah over candi-
dates. There is a universal feeling
that change must be made in the

man can question our republicanism.
We belong to the old school Of re-
publicans organized in the days of
Lincoln, and while acknowledging that
the party has made mistakes, and at
times been burdened with some punk
leaders, the principles of the party
founded upon the aim of the uplitt of
mankind, still live. For 81 years we
have voted the republican ticket with
out scratching and expected to go
down to our grave without that record
being violated but when a represen-
alive of party that has for its leaders
every disloyal man in the state can
steal nomination on a republican
ticket we do not consider that we, or
any other republican, can conscien'
tiously vote the ticket straight, and
for one we propose to vote for f. i.
Banker and trust that he may be elect
ed. There are loyal democrats that are
forming Harding clubs, and there
should be- loyal republicans forming
Banker clubs in this county.
