k PAGE FOUR ii tt tt t it i THE MASON COUNTY JOURNAL GRANT C. ANGLE &amp; SON, Publishers Member of Washington State Press and Washington Newspaper Associations Entered as second-class matter at the postofiice at Shelton. Washington Pbllshed every Friday morning. Subscription: Domestic, $2 per year. Foreign. $2.50 in advance (All papers discontinued one month after delinquency) "SMOKE OUT" THE OPPOSITION From some source unknown, but doubtless with an axe to glind, comes propaganda which presages an or-, ganized fight against the Carlyon bonding bill to be voted on next fall. That the campaign comes from shy automobile organization is unlikely because the auto owners will be the greatest beneficiaries in the long ,n although the resources of future auto licenses will be bonded under the Carlyon law to provide for our fut- ure hard-surfaced roads. Under this plan we expect to carry on a very general system of paved highways over the state in much shorter time than is possible under any other method, and to avoid any direct tax- ation of the property of the state for this purpose. Mason County is one of the coun- ties which have taken advanced steps in issuing bonds for this work, which we hope to have taken over in future under the Carlyon act, and our peo- ]a]e v are naturally anxious that the should be approved and will doubtless be a unit for its pasage. It is not dear what element could be against such a favorable plan, aml it is haped the opposition will soon be "smoked out." In other clays it was an axiom that the carpenter couldn't afford to waste time picking up hi:; mised nails, but at the average wage of today one cannot afford to stop and pick up lost pennies• The time of the ordin- ary laborer is worth a cent a minute. OUR ALBERT BLACKLISTED. Mr. Gompers says organized labor is going into the congressional dis- tricts this fall and pound the life out of the undesirable (unbluffable) can- didates for congress, which he says includes our Albert Johnson. Albert is unafraid. So are his friends. Not irreverent in this connection, adds a Yidette riter, is this thunderbolt from AIbert Beveridge of Indiana and national fame: "Today it is ruthless labor •that forces its sway by organized intimi- ] dation, not only of our goverument [ in all its branches, hut of the people t as a whole; and also by as crafty / and shameless a lobby as ever capital / maintained at seats of legislation.. Just as yesterday the question was ] whether financial plunderers should] exploit the nation, so today the ques- tion is whether labor bandits shall hold up the republic.
