TRIAL WILL LAST FOR
MONTH SAY LAWYERS
Jury Of Fourteen To TryL. W.
WIS for Raid on Everett
Is Completed

Seattle, Wash, Mar. 9.-In court
room bedecked with miniature models
of the Everett dock, where the steam.
er Verona attempted to land on what
the /. w. WIS term as the "bloody
fifth" of November, 1916, the taking
of testimony in the trial of Thomas
Tracy, the first of IA I. w. W.'s to
face prosecution for the killing of JEFF
ferson Beard, was to start today. The
state s opening statement marks the be-
ginning of tho trial today.
The model of the dock and a num-
Der of large maps and charts were piled
in the court room by the state for the
purpose of vizualizing the shooting for
the jury.
The jury was completed yesterday
afternoon after days of gruelling exam
ination in which more than 60 talesmen
were called
The trial is unique in that IA Jurors,
instead OF IL, sit in the jury box. Two
alternate jurors were drawn according
to new law enacted by the state, espe-
cially for these eases, providing FOR
two extra talesmen. These jurors are
to remain throughout the trial but VIII
take no part at arriving at verdict
unless member of the original jury be-
comes too i'll to serve.
Mrs Jefferson Beard, wife of one
Of the citizen deputies killed at Everett,
was slated as the states first witness,
but was unable to attend court, the
strain of the approaching trial having
resulted in her collapse.
Attorneys for both sides declare the
trial will extend over period of a
month at least.

The "divider'' and the ''nixie" man
of the local postoffice are pretty inn
portant cogs in the machinery of the Of
flee, yet the public knows very little
of their troubles. They are the men to
whom all mis-directed letters are refer
red For instance, if letter is direct
ed to the "Secretary of the Early Ris-
ers' association, " when the "divider ("
comes to the letter, he passes it on to
the mike" man. 1t is then his duty
to find out from some member of the
association who and where the secretary
happens to live. All of which means that
the secretary of any lodge in Salem will
do favor to the postoffice by sending
in his address. There are more than 30
lodges or associations in the city and
the secretaries change. Hence the trou-
bles Of the "nixie" man in trying to
keep track of these secretaries.

tended notwithstanding the rainy
weather. Everything was sold and
brought good prices. Mr.. Eyrie bought
25 shoats FOR $500 and one team of
mares sold for $685., and everything
else in proportion. The total sales
amounted to something over $2,6OO
This was 5000 more than Mr.. Lemons
expected to realize and for this reason
he feels especially kindly towards the
auctioneers, Woodry & Greer. It was
record breaking sale as the time re-
CURED was only four and one half
