SOUGHT TO KILL
RICH FOLKS ON
ILLINOIS TRAIN
EIGHT CONSPIRATORS PLOTTED
TO CAUSE 1T TO PLUNGE IN
TO DEEP RANINE, ACCORDING
TO CONFESSION.

SPRINGFIELD H.. Sept. G.
Confessions from the eight conspir-
ators said to be directly connected
with the plot to wreck The Diamond
special of the Illinois Central railroad
near here Wednesday wre obtained
tonight by Chief of Police Morris and
federal agents. Officials declared
their belief that had the plan been
carried out not one passenger on the
train would have escaped alive.
Nineteen foreigners are under ar
rest and all are declared by officials
to be communists. The track, ac-
cording to the confessions, was to
have been torn up about 300 feet
from a bridge near Bissel. so that
the train would be plunged into a So
foot ravine.
Whatever passengers remained
alive, Chief Morris declared the con-
fessions said, the plotters intended to
kill and then to "kick in the teeth Of
the rich" The Diamond special was
selected "because only the rich ride
on it; poor people don't ride in sleep
ers."
A member of the gang was to be
stationed at the nearest farm house
to kill its owner if he raised an out
cry, and telephone wires were to be
cut. according to the confessions.
"ln my % years of police service
| have never known a more careful
ly laid and diabolic plot to destroy
life" declared Chief of Police Morris.
Direct connection between the men
in custody and other communists who
scattered leaflets here today, urging
destruction of the government and
support of the soviet regime of Rus
sia, HIS been established. according
to the authorities.
State and federal warrants charg-
ing conspiracy. attempts to commit a
felony and counterfeiting will pre-
vent any chance of liberty on bonds.
officials declare, and the eight men
who have confessed will be held to
the grand jury. Deportation pro-
ceedings are probable.

SERVICE CLUB TAKES ACTION

The Leavenworth Service Club
held a luncheon Wednesday noon ct
the Rainier Cafe and took action IN
the county commissioner contest with
a view to working for the interest Of
the upper valley and tributary dis
trictS.
Leavenworth, and districts in this
vicinity, we are told, never has mac
themselves felt in county politics.
Other districts have gotten into the
game and shared the spoils while this
section took such crumbs as might be
cribbled out. Two years ago a move
vas made to have a say and a candi-
date for county commissioner was
put up, hut no interest was shown
and he was defeated
Mr. Long, the successful candi-
date, however. has shown a fairness
and given general satisfaction in this
district; but in doing the fair thin
he seems to have incurred the on
nifty of certain Cashmere people, who
thought that the alleged old time ia
vcritism should go to the commits
sioner's home section. At any rate
Mr.. Matt Hickey, former commits
sicner for this district, who lives but
a short distance from Cashmere, was
trotted out to oppose Mr.. Long and
a hard fight IS being waced by his
supporters to defeat Mr.. Long. Tho
thorn in the flesh of the Cashmere
supporters of Mr.. Hickey it seems. Is
Mr.. Longs refusal to sanction tho
building Of a sixty or seventy thous-
snd bridge over the Wenatchee rive
in the northern part of that city, and
also his disinclinaton to approve Of
the Sunset highway being circled
around through the southern part o.
the town.
NJ. Longs record of the past two
years was readily approved by thoSC
present at the Service Club luncheon
and an appeal IS being made TO al
citizens Of the district to give hin
hearty support for a second term.
Let us all act together in this mat
ter, get out every voter and give NJ
Long an overwhelming majority. w
are not only working for fair repre-
sentation on the county board. b1
wf NAV at The same time show tn
world that we are awake to condi
tons.

FINED $500 FOR
TAMPERING WITH
CANAL HfADGATE
JUSTICE COURT IMPOSES THE
FINE; DEFENDANT. CRAIG
HEAD. APPEALS TO SUPER
IOR COURT.

World, Sept A. Radford \. Crag-
head was found guilty of tampering
with headgate of the Wenatchce
Reclamation District by Justice Port
er yesterday and fined 500 and costs.
Craghead denied any knowledge of
how the headgate became twisted out
of shape and enlarged so that it re-
leased greater amount of water
than he was entitled to, which fact
was testified to by officials and en-
ployes of the district.
There have been many cases of al
legged tampering with headgates dur
ing the past summer, at one time no
less than fourteen headgates in East
Wenatchee having been found to have
been smashed open. This, however,
was not done by the owners or users
of water but by water user who had
become aggravated in some manner
He pleaded guilty and was fined in
the Douglas county courts.
Craghead has taken an appeal from
the decision Of the justice court.
