gypsy music, its sparkling wine,

Gambling flourishes openly, and
high stakes are the rule rather

The source of the wealth of Blu

FOLEY NOT
LIKELY To
Be HANGED

James Foley, former Alaska
sourdough, and known to the po-
lice of the Northwest as a motor
ious yeggman, may have murder
ed Diamond Dutch" in the Nom
mining territory in 1898, as he
confessed to the authorities Friday
night, but there's little chance he
will ever pay the penalty of his
crime.
This is the opinion of Tacoma
police officials. They do not be-
lieve that Foley can prove the
murder, and they feel certain that
the government cannot connect
him with it.
And Cncle Sam will not send a
man to prison on his own unsub-
stantiated statement.
Foley, who has been arrested as
yegg under the names of Frank
Clark, Big Johnny and Frank
Nolan for various offenses, and
once in Pendleton, Ore, on a
safe-cracking charge, walked into
the county jailer's office Friday
night and told story of having
murdered one of hi scompanions
in a hut at Nome Is years ago.
The self-styled murderer is So
years of age, his face hardened
and wearing stubble of beard,
and despite his increasing years,
he still has a physique that ex-
plains his nickname of big
Johnny"
Foley and Diamond Dutch
and dublin Mickey" were long
snoring at Nome in 1898, living
together in beach shanty. One
night the men returned late to
their cabin, all with three sheets
in the wind" according to Foley,
and an argument started.
Diamond Dutch" seized a rifle
and fired pointblank at Dublin
Mickey" wounding him so badly
that he died several months later.
Foley promptly shot Diamond
Dutch" with a revolver, killing
him instantly" he said.
Foley changed his story Satur-
day to Detective Capt. d. o.
Smith, by saying that he had shot
Diamond Dutch" in self-defense
after the latter had fired at him
with his rifle, the bullet passing
over Foley's head.
After the shooting, Foley walk
ed 90 miles along the beach to
Topcock, took a boat to st. Mich
aels, where he longshored for a
time, and then returned to Puget
| Sound, he said.

varied industries, which shows
that in 1918 they earned 93 per
cent more than they did in 1914!
Just as the capitalists in all
countries are fattening on the
war, so are the people of the bel
ligerent nations being made the
slaves of war.
Germany's CONSUMPTION of la
Dor at home and in Belgium is
spectacular, but 1t is only doing
frankly and on a nationwide
scale what England has been do
ing insidiously and piece-meal.
Nearly half the entire wage
earning population of Great Brit
ain is now directly under the
control Of the British government
either with the colors, or in the
six-score national factories, or in
the 400 controlled establish
ments or in the thousands of 9TH
ers in which section z of the mu-
nitions act has been applied
These six or seven million people
are not allowed to stipulate for
any higher wage than the govern
ment prescribes.

WASHINGTON, ID. c., Dec. Is.
The Krupp Arms company of
Germany has just declared a IL
per cent dividend, besides making
huge additions to its plant out
Of its war profits.
This comes in striking contrast
to the CONSUMPTION by the imper-
ial government OF all the able
bodied men In Germany to work
wherever and at whatever terms
the bureaucrats may order.
The coincidence Of these tive
events forces on the attention
what is happening not only in
Germany, but in all the beliger-
ent countries.
The sinister forces that make
for war-especially the munition
manufacturers-are being ratteu-
ed and strengthened, while the
people are being enslaved.
The IL per cent dividend of the
Krupps Is not exceptional indeed
it is quite modest in comparison
with other companies in Germany
and England.
The Cologne Rootweiler pow
/ der mills paid a dividend of 25
per cent in 1914 and 35 per cent
in 1915. The Mauser Arm COM
pany, besides increasing its CAPT
tai from two to ten million
marks, paid dividends OF 30 pei
cent in each of the last two
years.
In England the war industries
have profited to an equally exor.
bitant extent. A compilation pub
lished in the London Economist
shows that during the first nine
months of this year, the iron and
steel companies of Great Britain
paid an average dividend of H.
per cent on common stock ant
in addition put aside Ga per cent
as surplus, making the average

Practically every other facility en-

to federal supervision or regulation

commerce laws. Being wholly ex-
empt from any sort of outside inter
ference, storage has been developed
into the deadliest weapon of the oil
monopoly. Federal ownership or con-
troll of the oil wells will mean little
if there is not also federal ownership
or control of storage. If federal own

production.
