ARE
So FOR
PARAO|NG

After a trial lasting two days
the four smelter strikers, ID. p.
Slaughter, Pat Boyle, Lee Reckler
and Mike Yures were convicted Of
the heinous offense of "parading"
on the sidewalk of Ruston and
fined So and costs each, making
a total bill of S42.2O, before
Judge Magill this morning.
II am free to say that there
does not appear to have been any
disorder or any attempt to make
trouble" said Judge Magill. Fur
thermore the court expressed the
opinion that the ordinance seemed
to be severe and unwarranted.
Yet technically it is legal and so
the citizens of Ruston may not
walk on their streets in any man
ner that may be construed to be
parade without first asking the
smelter officials who are the gov
eminent of Ruston.
The situation is one huge and
diabolical farce.
But Ruston Is a city. And
Ruston city Is owned by the smell
ter trust. And hired strike-break-
ers are paid by the smelter trust
and commissioned by the smelter
owned city officials to go out and
beat up and arrest the "parading"
citizen.
So there is no relief except in
the voters of Ruston abolishing
the smelter owned government of
Ruston and annexinE themselves
to the city of Tacoma, which will
give them protection.
There are still other cases to
be tried but the action of the
court shows they are doomed to
conviction. Everything that could
be done by the attorneys for the
men was done. There is no legal
escape. \
Ruston must disincorporate and
annex to Tacoma or continue nm
der the iron hand Of the smelter
government.

WASHINGTON. Feb, lh.--vce- President
Marshall recently voiced his annoyance
over the fact that one Thomas r. Mar
shall. formerly OF Ohio. who conducts a
restaurant and saloon In Washington Is
being confused with him In the delivery
OF mail. The Vice-President suggested
that he either would have to change his
name or go into the gin business" His
principal complaint was that various con-
siynments OF wet goods were being de-
livered to him at the Shoreham Hotel.
The Thomas X. Marshall who runs the
cafe Is quite person In Washngton.
His place is frequented by some NJ the
most prominent persons In tine political
life OF Washington. The proprietor lives
In the fashionable Northwest and when
he read In the newspapers that the Vice.
President was reported to have spoken In
sneering manner of his place he
promptly wrote u letter OF mild rebuke
TO the President, in which he told
him that at least three Presidents had

tained number Of his colleagues at a

honorable war record, was nj one time an
officer In the revenue cutter service and
