They will come to Washington next

STRIPPED, NAILED TO

workmen that Rabish acted as
spy for the company and as con-
sequence some of his fellow work
men were discharged. Friday
RaDlSh was taken from the mines
by gang of drunken foreigners to
the edge of town, where he was
beaten. He was rescued by the
officers, and four of his alleged
prosecutors were placed in Jail, and
later given a heavy fine by Justice
of the Peace Wiggman.
Early Saturday morning Rabish
was dragged from his bed and
taken to the same spot and strip
ped of his clothing. A crown of
thorns was procured and pressed
upon his head until the bloCl
coursed down over his naked body.
A large hole was dug in the ground
and an improvised cross made from
mine timbers was constructed To
this Rabish was bound hand and
foot and one large nail was driven
through the palm of his left
hand.
Then rocks were hurled at the
man nailed to the cross and the
crowd danced and jeered about the
body. Beer and whiskey were Sc
cured and this enraged the men all
the more.
Rabish was cut down from the
cross in a semiconscious condition.
The men, when interfered
with, showed fight, and several
shots were fired. Four were finally
captured. The greatest excitement
prevails in the district.
Sheriff Murphy of Washington
county tonight said that George
Rabish, the Slav victim of the cru
cifixion at Avel, had died this after
noon and his body had been re-
moved to an undertaking establish
ment, where it now lies. He reported
that quiet had been restored and
the people had been driven from
the streets to their homes. The four
men arrested are still in jail and
will probably be given hearing
Monday. Sheriff Murphy stated he
would continue his investigation
and make an attempt to arrest all
interested in the terrible crime.

America about five years ago and
it was Colonel Roosevelt's eulogy

Roosevelt and DR.. Wagner engaged
in conversation for several min
utes before the crowd became SO
dense that Dr. Wagner was COM
PEELED to move on.
During the levee the band was
playing all the while and it seemed
almost incongruous to hear such
tunes as "Bill Bailey" Yankee
Doodle" and George Cohan's latest
airs in the historic Sorbonne.

TART REPLY TO THE
C|T|zENS' COMMITTEE

Hugo Spannagel, president of
the Byron Land company, believes
that the railroads have got all that
is coming to them so far as Spo1
kane is concerned. A few days
ago Mr.. Spannagel received copy
of one of the circulars sent out by
the "Citizen's Committee" of which
A. w. Doland is chairman and e..
w. Waggoner, secretary. Follow
ing Is copy of Mr.. Spannagel's
reply:
your circular dated April IS at
hand. l also have one circular and
petition to Peter Nelson and B. r..
Ostrander, councilmen of the Fifth
ward, being one of three sent to
minor children of my family on or
about March IS, 1910.
I'm your circular of the 18th
inst. you say you have over $4,000
signatures. Does that include all
minors, as in my family?
you also say that my name
should be on that petition; by what
right do you assume that it should?
Certainly not because of anything
you have so far made public.
challenge you to advance one sim
gle sound business reason why it
should. You, by asking me to sign
this petition, ask me to be untrue
to the very principle of right to
my fellow men.
Il am not viewing this terminal
rate question only from the selfish
and mercenary side of the ques-
ton, of immediate returns on the
promises of construction of depot,
terminals, car shops and other i'm
provements.
"The railroads which have so far
served the city of Spokane, for any
length of time, show by their an
nual reports that they have paid
good dividends on Watered stock,
besides showing over $15,000,000 as
surplus.
mo, gentlemen, you have asked
the wrong man for help in this.
AS | see it, it is the most out
rageous request one man can ask
of another. Should | join your
ranks, | would certainly be unfair
to my children, who have no voice
in this, except to be asked by your
committee for support. Further,
| am fully aware that many thou
sands of country merchants and
farmers are now looking to us for
relief from this overcharge on
freights.
"You men who may honestly(O
believe that the country districts
are not watching you, will awake
some day to the realization that
we shall be held responsible by
thousands of Spokane citizens
should we yield to the selfish plea
of the railroads and grant them
the right to aid in the bleeding
process.
"'The agriculturist is slow to act
in unison, but act he will, and that
man or merchant who has helped
to perpetuate this rank injustice
to his interests will lose his trade
and justly so. FL
at should not be forgotten that
our city largely depends on the
trade of the inland farmers. BY
aiding the unjust cause of the
roads you will drive him from you,
and you may not require these
additional railways to carry the
freight he won't come to buy. =
Every citizen of Spokane should
weigh his actions in this matter
carefully and be not misled by
shallow promises made to labor or
any other organization by the rail
roads or special interests, what
ever they may be.
LET us treat the roads fairly,
one and all, but don't let them
fleece us"

Intimate personal comment on
the conservation controversy was
scontained in letter read by
Smith. 1t was written by him to
Colonel H. c. Riser, acting director
Of the survey, dated August Is, and
was "a record Of the Pinchot-Bal-
linger trouble, which came to a
head at Spokane" when the irri-
cation congress was in session and
when Pinchot first publicly took
his stand against Ballinger. "The
whole conservation movement"
Smith wrote, SIS now linked up
with Mr. Pinchot's views on the
subject, so orthodoxy in the cause
means agreement with Mr.. Pin
chot. Ex-Governor Pardee, who
was down to speak on Irrigation
Interests of the People, spoke on
The Sins of Ballinger,' and though
he told me he intended nothing
personal and that he would be
glad to have me tell Secretary
Ballinger SO, he insinuated that
Ballinger was either a fool or
knave, and rather intimated the
latter as his favorite hypothesis"

GREENACRES
MAN SUS-

A woman's wild scream and pres
ence of mind to touch an electric
button caused U. S. Dickey, prop
erty owner of Greenacres, Wash,
to be captured shortly after mid
night as a burglary suspect.
Should he be able to explain why
he was on the roof of the Atlantic
hotel at that hour of the morning,
why he secretly discarded a skele-
ton key while being walked to the
stataion, and, should he succeed
in convincing his captors and the
court that crude Jimmy" or pry
tionsbar and an old file found near
by, were never in his possession,
he may escape punishment These
were the conditions under which
he was captured.
On going to her room, an inmate
of Leona Stafford's house at Gil
Front avenue, discovered that the
light was turned on. and she saw
a mans arm thrust through the
screen of the window. She scream
ed, call was sent to the station,
and Sergeant Dial and Officer
Scott captured Dickey as he was
Fastening away.
