CENTRAL LABOR UNION.
Delegates Expelled on Account of Labor
Day Troubles.

The meeting of the Western Central
Labor Union last night was chiefly de-
voted to the consideration of the report of
the trial committee recommending the
expulsion of Delegates l.. Huney and J.
Prendergast, of the White Cooks and
Walters Union, for conduct unbecomlng
members of labor organization in their
connection with the Labor day picnic.
The report was finally adopted, and the
delegates accordingly expelled
The general charges published in the
Posr-lNTELLIGENCER last Sunday morning
were substantially the same as the specific
charges on which the two delegates were
tried. Briefly stated. they were 10 the
effect that those two men acted as cashiers
of the booths at the Labor day picnic and
refused TO allow the members regularly
appointed by the Labor day committee to
take charge of the cash. 1t WAS also shown
by a financial statement of the
receipts and expenditures of the differ
ent booths that from the lunch counter
only $ll2.20 was received, while the actual
bills for supplies and labor amounted to
S2S2.05; that the loss on the fruit stand
was ST.. Is. and on the ice cream stand. in
which thirty-two gallons of ice cream were
sold ut p cent a dish, the receipts were
lemonade stand was the only one from
which enough was turned in to pay ex-
penses. and from this there was 81 profit
The total loss on the booths was about
Sl57 and ali the bills have not
yet come in. The White Cooks and
Walters Union presented communica-
ton in which the action of its members
who were thus charged was Endorsed. The
cooks and walters union had, under seal
OF the union, made itself responsible for
the actions of its members with reference
to the handling of the money on Labor
day, but the communication withdrew this
responsibility on the ground that the
Labor day committee had appointed other
men 10 look after the cash. 1t took the
chairman some time TO get those two mat
tiers, the report of the committee and the
letter from the union, properly straight
ened out, but finally the letter from the
cooks and walters union was filed and
the report of the trial committee adopted.
Huney. who was present during the entire
proceedings, then retired from the room.

TACOMA PRESS OPINION.
Every Accused Person Should BE Con-
sidered Guilty Until Acquitted.

TACOMA, Sept 16.-[Special.l THE Globe
will say tomorrow, regarding the Albert
sons examination: The examination of
r. 3. Albertson has attracted unusual at
tention in this city, and yet there vas
nothing particularly interesting in the
case. Mr.. Albertson is either guilty or not
guilty of a crime that is in no wise extra
ordinary or uncommon. The plumber of
banks, even by their presidents, and the
embezzlement of moneys by trusted EN-
ployes are not infrequent occurrences,
nor do they belong to what may be called
high order of crime. The robbery of the
Fidelity bank was case of simple stealing,
stupidity planned and stupidity executed.
The Albertson who drafted the pledge of
immunity from prosecution and the other
Albertson who looted the bank, were alike
foolish in thinking that pledge secured
under such circumstances would be kept.
The only conceivable reason why Edward
Albertson attached any value to 1t is that
he believed the bank would stand loss of
about $20,0 rather than suffer the annoy
ance of exposure, and this also doubtless
explains why he took no more.
The character upon which the men
rely is partly matter of habit and partly
a matter of susceptibility to motives.
When We know why man values that
good name which Solomon said is better
than riches, we can tell whether he is
prudent creature, who has in his heart the
promise and potency of crime, or whether
he will always, under every circumstances,
be an honest man, and since the public can
know very few men in this way, it is never
safe to presume that man who has borne
a good name is innocent when he is &C
cused upon responsible authority of an
offense against the law. The pub
lie in its corporate capacity cannot
try men charged with crime. That duty

Polk. president of National Farmers Ali
ance makes point in his address in deny
ing his inhumanity to Union soldiers, and
denies that he ever held rank above

never have been in authority at any post.
Mr.. McAllister. a veteran of this city, Who
was in Salisbury prison when Polk was
governor, holds a sick parole signed by
81. Polk, brigadier general commanding

his conduct TO Union prisoners.
A score or so of old soldiers got together
today and perfected plans for applying tar
and feathers to Polk before he should
leave town tonight. but somehow the
news of their intention leaked out and the
police took steps to prevent the projected
assault.

TRIED TO CUT HIS THROAT.
"A steamboatman Dependent Because
He Lost His Card.

John Johnson, steamboatman, tried TO
commit suicide last night on the line of
the Commercial street motor, by
cutting his throat, and when
prevented by the timely arrival
OF friends, eluded their vigilance a short
time after and made second attempt by
throwing himself in front of the
Commercial street motor which
was advancing at full speed. His
friends who were hunting for him saw the
act, as did the engineer of the dummy
Brakes were reversed and the man
dragged from the track as the
engine passed over the spot. Officer
Osborn, who was with the searching party,
took Johnson to police headquarters,
where he was locked up to prevent
him from making any further
attempts to take his own life. The
attempt is attributed to the fact that
he lost his membership card in the
union, and was prevented from going to
work on that account.

AN INTERESTING SUIT.
To Test Law Against Sale of Liquor TO
British Columbia Indians.

British Columbia Indians.
Henry Howard, a coal passer on the
Eastern Oregon, was arrested by Deputy
United States Marshal Spriggs and taken
before Commissioner Emery on q charge
of selling liquor to an Indian. 1t was
proven that the Indian was resident of
British Columbia, and the commissioner
ordered the prisoner discharged He was
then turned over to the state authorities
and taken before Justice Won Tobel to be
tried under the state law prohibiting the
sale of liquor to Indians. The justice con-
tinued the case until today.
The case Is one of more than ordinary
lTTtsszcs5 from the fact that it will be the
first one in which the constitutionality of
the state law regarding the sale of liquor
to Indians has ever been tested. Frank
Hartley Jones, Towards attorney, will
fight the case on the ground that the In
dian is resident of British Columbia,
and that the state law is unconstitutional,
since IL is in contravention to the treaty
Of 1874 with Great Britain, which pre-
scribed that all British subjects, includ-
ing Indians, could come to the United
States and carry on business transactions
without moestation,
