Ray Mocubrey Badly Hurt.

c. d. McCubrey, clerk of court, said
this afternoon that the last word he
received about the condition of his
son Ray, who is in the hospital at
Enderlin, suffering from serious in
iuries sustained Thursday night, was
to the effect that he was resting easily
at that time, but that he was abso-
lutely helpless. The injured man is
a freight conductor and while in the
pursuit of his duty he took hold of a
rod near the top of a car, but it gave
way and he was precipitated with
great force to the ground, striking
on his back with his lantern under
meath him. Clifford .McCubrey, a
brother of the injured man phones that
the doctors in charge are not able
to say yet how serious the injuries
are, but Mr.. McCubrey. senior, feels
there is room for concern.

Want RESUMPTION
OF TRAIN SERVICE

Grand Forks. N. d, Dec. 24.-Peti-
tons from every village and city along
the Great Northern line from Grand
Forks to Walhalla have been placed, in
the hands of the Grand Forks CONNER
cial club praying that the former rail-
road service on that line be secured
again if possible.
There is a great amount OF dissatis-
faction with the present service on
that line as it does away with all pos
sibility of the people coming to Grand
Forks for days visit without having
to spend two nights here also. I'm
der the present schedule the Walhal-
la line proper-from Grafton to Wal
halla-is supplied by train leaving
Grafton Immediately after the Grand
Forks-Neche train pulls in.
The service that the patrons of the
company along the line are favorable
to is that of having the train leave
Walhalla in the morning, arriving in
Grand Forks about IL or 10 O'Clock.
and returning again in the evening,
leaving Grand Forks between and 5
o'clock in the afternoon.
Active efforts are being made by
the local committee to secure a
change of the service back to the
former schedule.
Commencing with the first of the
year the 500 line will delay its train
from Thief River Falls to Kenmare
long enough to make the connection
at Ardoch with the north bond Graf
ton eche train. That is another
matter that the local committee was
enabled to secure favorable action in.

that Kansas City mill had an inquiry

THE TRUTH ABOUT
JOHN DIETZ
Continued From Page One.)

Continued From Page One.)
so easy to determine Just how
. much of right and how much of
wrong there is in John DietNs out
lawry. For the evidence bearing
on the matter is strangely mixed;
the testimony varied and contra
dictory.
In the first place, the newspaper
stories about Dietz have been uni
formly misleading. The metropo-
Titan press has printed highly
colored stories written wholly from
the Dietz standpoint, while the
local press, controlled largely by
interests affiliated with the lumber
industry, has been quite as intern
perate in its presentation of the
other side.
This sharp division in the press
has fostered an equally sharp di-
vision in the public, so that today
the world outside of northern Wis
consin is strongly prejudiced in
favor of Dietz, while in northern
Wisconsin the general prejudice is
quite as strong the other way.
This state of affairs makes it
hard to get to the rock bottom in
the Dietz affair. Taking the mat
ter from every available angle,
however, the facts that appear
seem to point to some such con-
clusion as this:
IN GENERAL, JOHN DIETZ
HAS BEEN IN THE RIGHT. IN
CERTAIN PARTICULARS HE
HAS BEEN WRONG. IN HIS
STAND AGAINST THE LUMBER
CORPORATION HE WAS JUSTI-
FLED BY EXTRAORDINARY
CIRCUMSTANCES. IN HIS
FINAL RESISTANCE TO ARREST
HE WAS NOT JUSTIFIED BY
FACTS.
1t should be said, however, IN
Justice to Dietz, that all the facts
bearing upon the matter were not
known to the family of Cameron
Dam farm when the final attack
was made.
To get to the roots of the story
OF Cameron dam one must go back
nearly a decade to the days when
the old gang that Won fol Hay
ward the nickname "Robber' s
Roost," was at its last gasp
politically.
There was a spring election in
Hayward in 1902 and an admins
tration of habitual officeholders
The Tacoma times. [volume] (Tacoma, Wash.) 1903-1949, 1910-12-01

was defeated by a comparatively
clean ticket.
The old officials at the town
hall sullenly refused to turn over
the keys and the books of the town
office. They had held office so
long that they simply couldn't
realize defeat.
On the night of the day after
election Hayward was an armed
camp. Then there gathered in a
back room in the town building a
most singular assemblage. Lined
up on one side of the room were
the defeated officials, police and
all, with their sympathizers, and
on the other the newly elected Of
ficials and their sympathiZers.
Both factions were armed.
There was much talk and much
violence. The brash ones of the
reform crowd wanted to throw the
old gang bodily out of the upstairs
windows. The sheriff. whose SYM
pathies were with the old gang,
incontinently wired Gov. LaFol-
lette for troops.
And all through the hours dur
ing which these factions stood
ready to fly at each others threats
and make a shamles of the town
hall, one man stood up between
them, and pleaded for moderation.
That man was John Dietz.
They say that John Dietz spoke
for the better part Of two hours
that night. His counsel prevailed.
There was no Hayward riot. The
old administration finally yielded,
and truculently turned over the
town to the new element.
Thus the "outlaw of Cameron
dam was brought to the notice OF
the Influential men" of SAWYER
co, and thus was he involved in
local politics in such a way as to
incur the enmity of those men.
Thus also John Dietz gained a
knowledge of the inside workings
or practical" politics. knowl-
edge that made of him an outlaw,
and that drove him from extreme
to extreme till it finally precipitat-
ed the spectacular battle waged
about Cameron dam on Oct. s. and
landed Dietz in Hayward Jail I'M
der charge of murder.
TOmorrow'S story will tell Of
