 lutionize Cotton Pressing

 Pacific Slope.
 Ellensburg, Wash, Aug. 13.-At an early hour this morning Charles Vincent, who shot Mike Kohlopp in a drunken brawl Sunday, was lynched. A large mob gathered at midnight and attacked the jail about 1 o'clock. The sheriff made resistance, but had a small force of men and was overpowered. Vincent was hanged to a railroad bridge and his body shot full of holes. His hearing was to have taken place today.
 Last night John Burglin, who was stabbed by Nipcent's father in the same row, died from his wounds. Young Vim cent had served time in the Oregon peni- tentiary for burglary.
 Within an hour after the younger Vim cent was hanged his father was taken from Jail and hanged beside him.
 Sheriff Stinson made strong effort to save the.men, but the mob was too strong for him. The jail is a weak affair and there was no trouble in gaining ac- cess to it, but the men were confined in steel cages, which gave the mob a good deal of trouble in opening The Vim cents made no fight, being apparently overcome with fear. Some of the most prominent citizens in the town partici- pated in the lynching. A few were masked. but the majority made no at tempt to disguise themselves There has been a good deal of lawlessness in the neighborhood for the past year and it was the general belief that sharp lesson was needed to the evil disposed persons who had taken up their quarters in the town. The civil authorities have not yet taken any action with regard to the lynching.
