LAW is BUT EMPTY
FORMINBIG STRIKE;
SEND CHILDREN HERE

Howard Wright. Tacoma attor-
ney, is back from Aberdeen where
he tried to use the law in favor
of the strikers.
Apparently, however, the law
doesn't work both days.
even the forms of law are dis
regarded" said Wright today.
'tMen are arrested without war;
rant, without charge, and are run
out of town as the most convenient
way to settle things. The officials
are making no attempt to obey
the law"
Wright went to Aberdeen at
the request of the socialist party
to get an Injunction against the
city's keeping the Finnish hall
closed.
Ordinarily any corporation any
where can get out a temporary
restraining order. Wright couldn't t
even get that.
Judge Wouldn't Act.
Judge Mason Irwin refused to
act without giving the city hear
ing. The case will be heard Fri
day.
''If the city had allowed the
men to meet, the strike might
have been over by now," said
Wright. '.Many of them were
ready to accept the mill owners
offer of 1926 a day. But their
halls were nailed shut, and they
were arrested If even two or three
stopped to talk it over on the
street."
Wright also defended strik-
er, John Parta, in police court.
No warrant had been sworn
out, no charge made. Parta was
told to stand up.
Guilty or not guilty?" de-
maded Judge Tucker.
Wright intervened. "I'd like
to see a copy of the complaint, "
he said. The Judge grabbed the
blank form, scribbled a few min
utes, called up one of the strike
guards, told him to sign it. Then
he passed it to the attorney.
He Was Disorderly.
It accuses Parta of "disorderly
on the Streets" The word CON
duct had been omitted by the
judge in his hurry-a flaw that i'm

bine, air-tight. non-sinkable,
worked like a perfectly adjusted
piece of machinery in yesterdays
election.
Owen Woods personal popu-
larity shot him in ahead of the
other two winners by 600 and
500 votes.
Mills took the same big lead in
the early voting over Petit as he
did in the primaries, but yester-
day the residence districts did not
come to the present commission
er's support in the late voting.
Mills lead over Petit was fairly
consistent throughout.
Lawson came back with a ven
geance. Commissioner Gronen
ran close on his heels in the prim-
aries, but yesterday the former
commissioner won out by 1900
votes.
Barth broke the record for
high vote given socialist, which
Einhaus made two weeks ago
and gained 1,100 votes over his
figure in the primary.
Petit was high man in the
Sixth. Seventh and Eighth wards.
Mills and Woods both led him in
the rest. The Third ward and
the First hit Petit hardest, Mills
running two to one over nim in
the Third ward.
Gronen led Lawson only in
the Seventh and Eighth wards.
A big crowd watched the re-
turns.

OW VINO ndu TO sell because OF the
death of her husband''-these be-
came familiar stereotyped Hill
manisms.
About this time the Seattle Star
cast out his advertisements. The
Seattle Real Estate association
appointed committee, consist
ing of r. w. Hill, George w. Dill
ing and Ole Hanson, to investi-
gate Hillmans methods. But
Hillman laughed and went on
selling land.
He Is Convicted
Then u. S. District Attorney
Todd started proceedings against
him, for using the mails to de-
fraud, but he still laughed and
went on selling and selling. The
federal grand jury indicted him,
but &C. d., the man without
nerves, without fear, without
shams, continued unheeding his
pursuit of gold. The trial came
on, long, tedious, nerve-racking,
but the man of ice remained as
imperturbable and unaffected as
Mt. Tacoma.
Guilty! The court sentenced
him to two and half years at Nc
Neil's Island. He did not falter.
He tried legal expedient after
legal expedient. He went to the
u. s. circuit court of appeals
and lost. He went to the supreme
court of the United States-and
lost. He still smiled.
In few days Hillman will en-
ter upon the term of punishment
which all his millions could not
save him from. He will be shut
off from the world of business
which was his battle-ground, from
his family whom he loves.
Success His Excuse
Long ago a real estate man,
friendly to Hillman, reproached
him for his methods. His reply
was to draw from an inner pock-
ct sheaf of certificates of de-
posit. They were his justifica-
tion.
That was-and is, 1t seems
his limitation. He cannot see be-
yond the gold. He has impover-
ished thousands. Most of them
are poor people saving to buy
homes.
He has wonderful physique,
and he has asked for outdoor
work at the penitentiary in order
to keep fit. He has wonderful
mind. He conceives big things.
He disliked little details. He
was, for instance, slack in max
ing collections. Others grated
on him. He did not care. He
did not care for dollars, or thous-
ands of dollars, but only hun
dreds OF thousands of dollars.
Hard, strong, cunning and
cruel, he is at least game.
81 will take my medicine" he
says.
Since his conviction Hillman
has been sued for about 81, ,OOO,-
900. In the neighborhood of 200
suits have been begun against
him. Some of these suits are no
doubt legitimate-but some are
not.

hundreds of the relatives and
friends of those who were lost
on the Titanic.
"Why did not Ismay stay with

White Star officials, however,
defend Ismay's course by saying
that it was necessary for some
one in authority to keep the

begged for news of their loved

Jail His Office.
AT one time in his career he
served twenty days In the coun-
ty jail. He turned his cell into
an office and from 1t sold lots for
$1,000. Among his customers
were two deputy sheriffs.
He dreamed of a city and of
himself as the builder. He
bought land on the sound at the
other side of Olympia and called
1t S"Boston Harbor." He charter
ed the old side-wheeler, the Yo-
semitic, and loaded her to the
guards with prospective buyers.
And between the dock at Seat
tie and the dock at Eagle Harbor
he actually sold $150,O00 worth
of land to people who had never
even seen Boston Harbor."
His greed and. ambition pre-
yiously had been for more and
more gold, but now his one en-
deavor was to turn his gold into
land. He bought thousands of
acres at Birmingham, thousands
at Cathcart, and, not content with
buying all the land he could in
Washington, he purchased thou

miles of waterfront in California.

But when he secured. and plated

he left the Seattle sphere, and the
expected increase in value did
not come.
First one and then another of
his customers made trouble for
him. He went on selling, selling,
laughing at the threats of the dis
satisfied, believing the Hillman
star would bring safely through
the financial web of his own weav-

wolves which preyed on
sheep, paying particular at
tention to ewes. The wolves
were swift, strong, cunning
and cruel, and the swiftest,
strongest, most cunning and
most cruel was the leader.
The tale tells that an ac-
cident befell the leader who
could no longer run swift
footed and strike savage
blows with his yellow fangs.
Then did the pack turn on
him, and, though he fought
despairingly, they tore him
flesh from bone.
One day about 21 years ago a
man on the right side of 80 got
off the train at the old station
at the foot of Columbia street,
and viewed the prospect with a
quiet smile of pleasure. 1t was
his first visit to Seattle. s.
He was a healthy-looking man,
thick-set and so quiet-voiced and
unobtrusive In manner that he
would have passed unnoticed in a
crowd of three.
The mans name was Clarence
Dayton Hillman.
Was Amateur Wrestler. q
Hillman had come, by easy
stages, from Denver, where his
only claim to distinction was that
he was an amateur - wrestler Of
ability. Strangers in Seattle at
tracted little attention in those
brave days, but Hillman came as
an Argonaut in search of the
golden fleece. Others scarcely
paused In their frenzied flight for
Alaska, but Hillman saw in Seat
tie the pay streak which was to
make him rich. zt-.....-...-
He embarked, in a modest way,
in the easy-term,s leng-time-pay-
meLt real estate business. $ With
his scanty capital of less than
$4,000 he bought a few acres of
land in what was then Seattle's
outermost suburb, Greenlake.
Old timers laughed at the
strangers venture. The wise ones
said: "Greenlake will always be
a primeval forest"
But Hillman had what most
business men have not-imagina-
ton. He believed in his imagin-
ings. And he had within him
self, too, a force-call 1t magne-
tism, hypnotism, salesmanship-
with which he made others see
and believe in his dreams.
Hillman today has many en-
emies. And among his bitterest
enemies are real estate men. Yet
even his enemies in the business
are compelled to pay him need
of grudging praise. In the jar
gon of the trade, they say he
never lost sale
His Greenlake addition was soon
sold out, and Immediately he went
into debt to enormous amounts
to purchase more land, immed--
lately restakins and selling In
small parcels.
Became Millionaire.
Addition followe daddition, He
bought low and sold high. His
hundreds turned to thousands, to
tens of thousands, to hundreds of
thousands. And within ten years
this man of Imagination had be-
come several times millionaire.
He had cashed his dreams.
As time swept on his greed for
gold increased. His love of the
yellow metal became obsession.
He though money and talked
money. In his yellow-tinted
dreams he saw Seattle city Of
