The Hoquiam Attitude

The position taken by the city of
Hoquiam in regard TO the attempted
revolution agitated by the !. W. W.
is being severely criticised not only
in Aberdeen and other points, but in
Hoquiam itself. 1t is pointed out that
when this agitation commenced last
fall and Aberdeen citizens, fully real
iZing the danger Of the anarchistic
preachment of the agitators, banished
them from this city, only to flndHo-
quiam affording them "a haven in
which to hatch out trouble of all
sorts, from a labor strike to revolu-
ton against the government.
A similar condition appears to pre-
vail now. Aberdeen has prohibited
the congregation of those treason
preachers anywhere in the city, but
HoQuiam not only tolerates street
corner agitation of revolution and
large demonstrations, but the mayor
of that city appears to favor the
trouble breeders. 1t would do the
citizenship of our sister city "a grew
Gus wrong to believe that any seri-
Gus number of them sympathiZe with
this bunch of hired revolutionists, but
they should arise in their might and
put an end to the disturbance of the
peace by a set of men who have no
interest in the city, and are paid to
raise disturbance and bleed the ig-
norant workingman.
Credit is due the two commission
ers, Ogden and Willis, who refused
to be buldozed by the Trades coun-
Gil of that city-which organization
seems to have become sort of first
aid to the revolutionists-and refus-
ed to give judicial hearing to Police
Sergeant Hardwick, with threat Of
recall hanging over their heads. They
took the position that it was an inn
possibility to accord an impartial
trial in view of the threat made, in
viii h they We're eminently correct.
1t is rarely the Herald butts in
to Hoquiam affairs, but it is patent
fact, that united action on Grays
Harbor is absolutely necessary to
drive the anarchistic revolutionists
from this section, and for that reason
the attitude of Hoquiam is of direct
interest to Aberdeen.

ABERDEEN JOINS

Will Have Baseball
This Year

Aberdeen is 10 have a berth in the

decided at meeting held here Fri
day, when the following directors
We're selected: Richard Boettiger.
Warren ]. Egerer and Dr.. Edward B.
Riley.
E H. Ford, well known Northwest
player Will be selected TO manage the
team and he has strings on a num-
Der OF good players. The league
should be winner from every stand
point, and HoQuiam fans are enthu-
siastic over the formation and decis-
ion OF Aberdeen TO give the harbor
organizer baseball Tor another year.
Aberdeen will place team in the
league as good as any OF the organi-
cations and some CLASSY ball should
be seen. The teams in the league

the Northwestern league teams. The

and boost it. Good ball will be fur
nished and that is what is wanted.
Don't be too critical. Go out to help
the home team win and live again,
the days of the old Southwest Wash
ington league when every one went
out to see the contests Tor the pure
love OF the sport.
At an enthusiastic meeting held
Saturday afternoon at the Fairmont
hotel the Aberdeen baseball club was
formally organized with the follow
ing officers: II. 3. Zimmerman, presi-
dent, L. H. Burnett, vice president;
X. A. McLennan, secretary; Henry
Harlan. treasurer.
Over S1,500 has already been rails
ed. which assures the financial end.
That Aberdeen wants baseball is prov
Ell by the fact that the committee
soliciting funds was refused assist
ance by only two firms. The direc-
tors state that they will announce
the name OF the manager within fe~
days. They want a hish-class man,
who in himself will be a guarantee
that Aberdeen is going to play moth

JOHN F. ROGERS MISSING
Well Known Timber Cruiser Missing
Six Weeks-May Be Another Tor
now Victim

John F. Rogers of Elma, a timber
cruiser we'll known on Grays Harbor
where he has a number of relatives
and friends, has been missing for six
weeks and many are beginning to
fear that he fell victim of John
Tornow, the mad hermit of the
woods. north of Grays Harbor.
Just where Rogers was engaged in
his work is not known, but 1t IS re-
ported he was cruising in the dis
trict in which Tornow might be.
This has occasioned the fear that
Tornow has slain Rogers. 1t is now
six weeks since the cruiser was heard
from.
