KELSO LABOR MAKES
GOOD PROGRESS IN
ORGANIZING WORK
BY Geo. Hlnman, President KeIso
Central Labor Council.

KELSO, Aug. 31.-Having person.
ally met your representative, some few
weeks ago while he was canvassing
our city in the interest of your yalu-
able paper and the people in general;
and not having, up to this time, seen
write-up of this city and this part
of the state, may | venture a line
concerning the stride that organized
labor has made In the past few months.
Up to February Is, Kelso had no To-
cal organizations. At the present time
there are eight active organizations:
Carpenters, Painters, Cooks and Gull
nary Workers, BARRIERS, Musicians.
Plasterers, Hod Carriers and Build
ing Laborers. and Plumbers. The
Truck Drivers. Retail Clerks, Elec-
tricians and Laundry Workers are
about to function.
Kelso also has a Central Labor
Union with which all the above men,
toned locals are affiliated.
Organization Work.
This is indeed a remarkable record
and great credit is due Frank Keckler,
our local organizer, for his untiring
efforts in behalf of organized labor
Practically all wage differences have
been adjusted without discord. The
work has been carried on in a diplo-
matte, and business like manner show
ing the stuff that our representative
is made of. | may add that the West
lake Construction company should be
commended for the part they have
taken in the interest of labor. From

ed, and it is with regret that we learn
they are to leave the field upon com.
pletion of contracts now being rushed
to an end. Practically all contractors
who now operate in this field pay the
wage scale, but the founders of Long
view. the Long Bell company, have
not paid the scale and are paying
from ten to thirty cents short of what
is being paid by other employers.
In a speech made by Mr. Long at
the meeting at the Lumbermen's As
sociation at Longview recently he
stated in reference to the labor prob
lem in the Northwest that there must
be an understanding between the en-
ploye and he employer. How plainly
the new understanding exits when
the figures quoted are facts. How
readily can they bring about an un-
derstanding between the employe and
the employer-the difference being
from ten to thirty cents. Why do
they not pay it, the the misunder-
standing may be eradicated? Organ.
lied Labor in this field has not come
in direct contact with the Long Bell
company For this reason all union
men have found employment with con-
tractors who do and have paid the
scale asked.

scourge Of mankind. Surely Ameri.

ice than to secure the cooperation of
forward-looking men and women in

The second great issue in which the
workers of America are involved is
the struggle between autocracy and
democracy in industry. The stabii-

Sageticks either were hungered
by the long period of Information

months standing or else the snow
had the effect of incubating them In
multiplied numbers, for they appear
to never have been so numerous be-
fore. Persons coming in from the
country after being out but a few
hours and descending from their
cars to the sagebrush but n few
times have brought as many as four
ticks on their persons at a trip. Gen.

one tick on his body at a time ii is
unusual and a cause fer remark.
Whichever theory may be true
may never be known for a certainty
to make it safe to bet money on 1t.
but the former has a plausible look
awfully hungry. The way they go
at a person and bite and get stuck
on short notice has never seen a par
alfel. They bite with less exploring
than usual and when they do their
bites are more itchy and harder to
contend with by the use of turpen-
tine and other palliatiyes at hand.
Ticks have every reason TO be
dreaded as much as rattlesnakes.
They arc conyeyors of the deadly
spotted fever and more human lives
are lost to their depredations than
their colaborers of the crawling vari-
ETY., which at least nave the chivalry
to sound a loud warning before they
deliver the fatal enom through
their fangs. A tick may be on ones
clothes and its presence unsupported
until the victim is in slumber, and
without his consciousness of the
proximity of danger the deadly spot

his vitals through distribution with
corpuscles.
Safety demands certain things of

WISCONSIN DAIRY STATE

The largest cooperative cheese
marketing organization in the United
States is the Wisconsin Cheese Pro
ducers Federation which handles the
output of over 200 cheese factories,
making about one-tenth of the states
supply.
1t was in Wisconsin that the first es-
sential difference was shown between
butter fat and it's substitutes from
the standpoint of health and nutri-
ton.
In science and invention Wiscon-
sin has contributed most notably to
the development of dairy advance.
Most of the tests essential to modern
dairy manufacture have been perfect
ed at the Wisconsin College of Agri-
culture. The Babcock test has revolu-
tionized the dairy industry. Wiscon-
sin scientists have contributed much
to show that milk is the great pro-

COMMON SENSE VS.. LEGISLATION
Radical farmers in North Dakota
and Minnesota have found by expert
ence that legislation will not correct
economic or personal deficiencies.
Growing wheat alone year after
year means WORKOUT lands and hard
up farmers, and no government sub
sidy or guaranteed price will help.
One man in ten who goes into the
grocery business succeeds and grows
wealthy, and the average is about the
same with farmers.
Farming is the basic industry and
if we could destroy every city, the
wealth production and necessities of
the farms would build them up again.
But if we destroy the farms, the
cities would fall into irretrievable
ruin. To guarantee wheat prices is to
tax weaker industries than farming.
The world excess of 300,O00,OO0
bushels of wheat would be doubled by
a subsidy as premium on increased
production and wheat would go down
as taxes went up.
The way out is not by more legisla-
ton but more faith in our country,
more common sense and more diversi-
fled farming.

The Thanksgiving Proclamation just is
sued by President Coolidge says:
The American people, from their earli-
est days, have observed the wise custom
of acknowledging each year the bounty
with which Divine Providence has favored
them In the beginning this acknowledge
ment was voluntary return Of thanks by
the community for the fruitfulness Of
the harvest. Though our mode of life has
changed, this custom has always survived.
It has made Thanksgiving Day not only
one of the Oldest but one of the most char
acteristic observances of our country. On
that day, in home and church, in family
and in public gatherings, the whole nation
has for generations paid the tribute due
from grateful hearts for blessings bestoW-
ed.
To center our thoughts in this way upon
the favors which we have been shown has
been altogether wise and desirable. 1t has
given opportunity justly to balance the
good and the evil which we have experienc
ed. In that we have never failed to find
reasons for being grateful to God for a
generous preponderance OF the good Even
in the least propitious times broad con-
temptation of our whole position has never
failed to disclose overwhelming reasons
for thankfulness. Thus viewing our situa-
ton, we have found warrant for more
helpful and confident attitude toward the
future.
In the current year, we now approach
the time which has been accepted by Gus
tom as the most fitting for the calm sur
vey of our estate and the return of thanks
We shall the more keenly realize our good
fortune if we will, in deep sincerity, give to
it due thought and more especially if we
will compare it with that of any other com
munity in the world.
The year has brought to our people two
tragic experiences which have deeply af-
fected them. One was the death of our
beloved president, Harding, which has
