CARSON "CITY DAILY APPEAL, WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 30, 1918 it abor Mis Nfe INOTICE A COVERT attack on Tasker L. Oddie, former governor and candidate for that office again on the Republican ticket, is being circulated under the guise of a letter from the joint legislative hoard of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen and Engineers and the Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen, in which it is stated that Governor Boyle has never vetoed any bill in the interest of railroad employes, while five are enumer ated as having been vetoed by Oddie, when he was chief execu tive of the state. The five measures referred to were all passed by the legislature at the session of 1U13 and consisted of an act to prohibit the discharge of employes on account of be longing to labor organizations, an act requiring prompt pay ment of wages on the discharge of employes, an act requiring lights on derailing switches, an act establishing semi-monthly pay days and an ast prohibiting blacklisting. The circular is signed by FRANK W. INGRAM as state representative of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen and Engineers and by C. W. Blackwell as state representative of the Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen. MR INGRAM at the conclusion of the session of the legislature in 1913 issued with Chairman W. E. "Wallace of the Trainmen a report to the mem bers of the brotherhoods in which he said: .."We desire to ex press our sincere appreciation of the kindness and courtesy extended us by our governor, Hon. Tasker L. Oddie, and thank him FOR HIS SUPPORT ON OUR MEASURES, feeling that his good Judgment will reflect credit upon our state." This was after the bills referred to had been vetoed, it will be noted. The titles of some bills are misleading, as they do not con vey to the reader exactly what the measures are about. This was thoroughly understood at Carson City and, when the meas ures came up for a vote under Gov. Boyle as to whether the Oddie vetoes should or should not be sustained, not a word was said on the subject by Gov. Boyle in his message to the legis lature, although he had held a long conference with labor lead ers immediately on taking office. Had he asked that these vetoes of his predecessor be set aside it would not have been done, and as a matter of fact and record, the legislature sus tained every one of Gov. Oddie 's vetoes on these bills. Here are the facts, taken from the official records: An act prohibiting the discharge of employes on account of belonging to labor organizations: Veto sustained. Every labor union man voted to uphold the veto and only two sena tors against it, neither of whom was a railroad man. An act requiring the prompt payment of wages on dis charge of cmploves: Veto sustained by FORTY-EIGHT AYES, NOT ONE VOTING AGAINST IT An act requiring lights on derailing switches: Veto UNANIMOUSLYustained. An act requiring semi-monthlv pav davs: Veto sustained UNANIMOUSLY BY THIRTY-SIX AYES AND NOT ONE NO. An act prohibiting black-listing: Veto sustained bv FORTY-ONE AYES AND ONLY THREE NOES. In many cases the author of the bill himself voted to sus tain the veto, so well-satisfied was he of the justice of it. That is the record. It speaks for itself. Gov. Oddie 's vetoes were sustained by every labor representative in the legislature.

This is a statement of facts and is fully supported by recognized author ities. According to all accepted refer ence works, including the United States Dispensatory, Encyclopedia Britannica and leading text books used in tnc school of medicine, the principal ingre dients of Tanlac possess the most val liable tonic properties known to sci ence. This statement is further prov en by the fact that millions of persons who have actually taken Tanlac have testified to its extraordinary merit as a medicine. Tanlac restores health and strength to the weak and run-down system by enabling every organ of the body to perform its proper function in nature's own wav.

Belgium will not consent to a renewal of the treaty of 1839 or revert to its former status as a '"neutralized" nation after' the war. officials of the Belgium offi- i . cial information service declare. The people of the nation will not consider a return to that state of "guaranteed" neutrality, which violated by Germany, brought England and later the United States into the war. The nation demands the right to con trol her own affairs in such a manner as will best suit her own interests, without interference on the part of any foreign power. A return to her former status would entail a perpetual intru sion by Germany into the domestic life of the nation, subjecting the people to an intolerable superintendence, it . is stated. The statement of Belgian attitude was made in refutation to the endeavors of German statesmen and propagandists to create the impression that Belgium would be willing to return to her posi tion before the war. oo BELGIUM HASTENS TO REBUILD RUINS "Remember, that whether you will or not.
