VIII the gangs ISLANDERS and
the gangs false claims divert the
women voters from the fact that a
16year-old girl, Goldie McMoss,
the victim of repeated barbaric
treatment in the Chehalis school,
cried in her agony that she would
commit suicide?
And will the fact that this girl,
her body torn and mangled, was
picked up on a railroad track
within a week, on January 16,
1912, be forgotten NOW by men
and women because for campaign
purposes NJ. e. Hay shouts about
his humane treatment"
VIII the decent, humane people
of this state forget that the gang,
seeking dirty dollars, built man
sion for the superintendent of the
Monroe reformatory, with marble
baths and elegant suites of extra
bedrooms to comfort political
flunkies, while the unfortunate
boys were fed on insufficient food
and herded in temporary stock
ade?
Will the people foget the
gangs humane treatment" after
these boys, some unfortunate by
birth, some driven to petty crime
by hunger, were forced to open
revolt against the gangs policy
And will the people forget the
disgraceful and degrading specta-
Gle of so of these youths, future
citizens, handcuffed and shackred,
hauled across the entire Tenth of
the state from the Monroe reform
atory to the Walla Walla peniten-
tiary where, against the provis-
ions of their sentences, they were
thrown in with hardened Grimm
ais?
There you have a true side
light on the gangs humane
treatment"
Can you expect humane treat
ment" for unfortunate boys and
girls from a system which lives
and fattens at the very expense
of human lives? .-..-.#
In January, 1911, when the
disgraceful conditions at the Che
halls training school threatened
to become public, Hay, following
his usual tactics, put the clamps
on. He handpicked a committee
to whitewash, to cover up, and
to falsify If necessary.
At that time some of the girls,
in spite of threats, in spite of
promised floggings. dared to tell
of their treatment at the hands
of Superintendent Aspinwall of
the school. Aspinwall is an old
feeder at the public trough. Hay
picked him to administer the
gangs humane treatment" to the
states unfortunates, not because
he had had any experience or
training in that work, but because
he had a political pull.
When Hay made his fake inves-
tigation, the people of Chehalis
and Centralia were threatening
themselves to take action in be-
half of the girls. ComDlaints had

TURKS TURN
ANARCHISTS

(By United Press Leased Wire.)
BERLIN, Nov. 2.-Dispatehes
received here today show that
anarchy prevails throughout all
Turkey. With the Moslem troops
beaten everywhere by the Balkan
allies Turkish government Off
cials have lost complete control
of the rcins of government, and
chaos obtains in nearly every city
and village i'm European Turkey.
The succession of Turkish re-
verses is attributed by military
experts here to the poor judgment
exercised by government officials.
The soldiers, 1t Is said, are not to
blame for present conditions, but
all the fault lies with the govern
ment for sending disorganized
and unprepared troops to the
front.
During the rout, starving Turk
ish troops attacked the war cor
respondents and a supply train,
the correspondents and officers
easily repelling their advance.
Some of the Turkish detachments,
composed entirely of veterans,
gave a wonderful exhibition of
bravery.
Hundreds committed suicide
rather than surrender.

LOSES BRIDE OF
ONE SHORT WEEK

LOS ANGELES, Cal, Nov. q
Elmer Neese is planning court
proceedings today to gain posses
sion of his 1S-year-old bride, who
was Miss Ethel S. Vrooman. The
couple were married a week ago
at Santa Ana but the affair was
kept secret, even from the young
girls parents.
Neese secured a cottage here
and furnished it. Then he went
to his brides home and told her
father of the marriage. The an
CRY fater refused to give up his
daughter and ordered Neese from
the premises. He said there was
no objection to Neese as a SON
in-law but marriage without his
consent, he said, did not go.

mans court every day to urge
her plea.
Judge Cushman thinks federal
court rooms are not the proper
places for little women like Opal.
He dislikes the idea of having his
sanctum turned into a nursery,
and said SO yesterday afternoon.
Miss Opal strayed from the
arms of her auntie, Miss Ida
Storle, and standing at the foot
of the judges bench, looked up
at him, both cheeks dimpling,
and said:
Il wanna go up there"
The court was disturbed. The
attorney for Hogan objected to
the child's being allowed the run
of the room. Everyone smiled.
Everyone but the attorneys and
Judge Cushman, who scowled
deeply. In his gruffest tones he
announced that should the child
again interrupt te court, it would
be ordered from the room.
Her auntie gathered Miss Opal
into her arms and bore her from
the sanctum. Just as the door
was reached Opal shook her chub-
by fist in the direction of the
Judge and gurgled, "Bye-by."

the reform school, follows:
For obvious reasons the name
of the girl is omitted.
"I was flogged three times
while in the training school. Mr..
Aspinwall beat me after raising
my skirts. The first beating had
from 40 to so blows. The second
was about % blows, and the other
was about a dozen The blows
were all delivered upon the one
spot, and left marks that remain
ed for nearly a month.
Il saw marks on Grace Ragan,
another girl, and they are on her
still, to my knowledge. She was
padded until she was hardly able
to stand up or lie down.
Il was one of the girls who
saw Mr.. Briffet knock down one
of the boys and kick him as he
said: Take that, and that, you

WILL STANDPAT HAYS DECEPTION FOOL WOMEN VOTE
WHAT OF FLOGGlNG
UNFORTUNATE GIRLS?

Will the gangs hypocrisy fool the voters this
time?
Will M E. Hay, creature of the Bosses smirkng
under progressive mask, deceive the voters as to
his brazen standpat record and his gang nodded
principles?
Will Hay, the puppet of the brutal, dirty dollars
gang, mslead any of the women voters by his false
penal institutions?
Will Hays false claims make the women voters
forget about inhuman floggings administered to un-
fortunate girls by men attendants in the Chehalis
training school?
Will his insincere spouting NOW make the
women of this state forget that the gang put the
clamps on that the gang whitewashed, and covered
up by fake investigation the disgraceful conditions
in the Chehalis reform school for wayward and un-
fortunate girls?

The storm struck the ves-

is derived from tie duted shape Of the

Where the Guns Kick Hard.

Duck shooting at an altitude Of H.
900 feet. on the Junin pampa, along
the shore of the lake Of that name, IS
q sport that can be followed in Peru,
Very REGULAR effects are noted in this
raretied region, probably the highest
altitude for this sport in the world
The guns kick viciously and the shot
does not scatter promptly, making
long shots successful. This phenome-
non is due to the lack Of density OF the
air, which is only about eight pounds
to the square inch against fifteen at
sea level. Another interesting fact Is
that the ducks have no tishy taste, as
fish do not exist in this altitude.
