"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. At this partic-
ular time the crowning, domestic is-
