GRAFTON of Labor has wired Paul
Sharrenburg, secretary of the Cali
fornia State Federation of Labor,
pledging the cooperation of the
Washington State Federation of La
Dor in prosecuting the responsible
culprits, and has wired P. H. Nc
earthly, president of the California
Building Trades, asking that he CO.
operate in this connection. He has
also, together with C. o. Young
organizer for the AMERICAN Fedora
ton of Labor, written President Com
pers, explaining the whole situation
in full and asking that President
Gomeprs place the resources of the
American Federation of Labor be-
hind the State Federation of Califor.

limit.
Harry Woods is we'll known in the
labor movement of Washington, and
has been very active for a number
of years in the labor movement at
Everett, where he served as presi-
dent of the Timber Workers Union
He is an ardent supporter of the
American Federation of Labor, and
one of the cleanest and finest of the
younger men who have developed
in our movement in Washington
in recent years, and no stone should
be left unturned in the prosecu-
ton of this murderous crew who at
tempted this dastardly outrage on
decent American citizenship.

Extreme Radicalisrn Hotly
Assailed By Demo-

Bellingham. Wash, Sept. IL
Omitted Press) ).-"Government must
never Be 1t the mercy OF IN upper
or lower mob" Governor James NJ.
Cox declared here this morning id
opening . day full Of stump
speeches along the western coast
Of Warrington.
His address, it was apparent, was
directed at so-called radical ele-
ments that. have been creating dig
turbances in the northwest. ~
A sure way to prevent radicalism
Is to keep the government respon-
sive to the will Of the people, he
said. but added. in again attacking
tho senatorial oligarchy." this is
impossible with reactionaries ii
control.
Cox read q letter from H. r
Alexander, chairman OF the Wash
fngton Republican finance commit
tee. saying Washington had raised
$50, 900 OF its $65,O00 allotment.
Regarding radicalism, Cox CON
tinued:
II hold that in the United State.
there Is no call for extreme radi
calism. II government is fair
then there will be no special privi
lege and certainty no unfair advan
tage to anyone. There will b,
neither exploitation of worker MOI
injustice to employer.
Just as surely as the pendulum
swings to the extreme right in IA
voritism and unfair privilege, Their
is certain to result a swing to th'
extreme left Of radica,ism with ,
!. smash.
1T is the purpose Of governmen
in democracy to hold the scales o
justice true, to give every person o
every class and kind equal oppor
tunity to achieve and to acquir
happiness.
Those who have taken command
Of the opposition party seem to hav
/, forgotten this and remember onl,
