earthed on the Pacific Coast.
The United States grand jury has found
indictments against ten leaders Of the recent
anti Chinese riots in Seattle, W. Il. The ju-
rors report, which was submitted last Sat
urday, is an extraordinary document. II al
leges that evidence has been laid before the
grand Jury sufficient to convince them that
there exists throughout the country trea-
sonable organization known ~ the "Rsd
American International Workingmen's asso
citation" This organization is described at
great length. Among other things the re-
port says: This association with all its
branches is essentially snarchical in Theory |
and practice The main articles OF its creed |
are arson, robbery aud murder. Its pro.
claimed purpose is the overthrow Of our gov
eminent and the erection upon upon its ru-
ms of a so called sociAlistic commonwealth. !
The policy pursued by the association is to
secure control Of all the labor organza-
tons, and particularly Of the Knights Of La
Dor to see to it that the officers of all labor
organizations are chosen from scientific 80
ciaists to employ every means to produce
discomfort among the people to stir up on
all occasions and at all times AZ much strife
and agitation AZ ia possible for the subversion
Of the government. Last fall branches of
the organization we're established at Seattle,
Tacoma, Olympia and other points on Puget
Sound the agitation of the Chinese question
was made at once the preteSt and cover for
its reasonable operations. All disturbances
and outrages on Puget Sound for the last six
months, arising nominally from the agitation
! of the Chinese question, we're really foment-
ed by this Infamous association, whose real
aims and designs have been studiousy kept
| from the knowledge OF the real working men
| or labor organization. The scientific social
| lists of the red American international work
ingmens association are as shown by unmis
taxable documentary evidence before US, Sc
cretly instructipg their deluded, ignorant and
brutalized followers in the means Of practi-
oally applying dynamite how to seize arm
cries and military stores how to prevent the
departure of troops from concentrating
points how to pre- ,erve order in centres Of
insurrections, and how to imprisOn aud to
destroy men of influence and property. To
accomplish this end the association instruots
its members to be particularly active in labor
organizations.
