left by Kelly ut the upper end of
the valley. Morris family was
large enough to make a formidable
resistance against the Indians.
Their was William Morris, ST., and
his ten children-William, Jr.. Hen.
ry, Leonard, Joshua, John, Carroll.
Lewis, Benjamin, Elizabeth, (wife of
John See,) and Frances, (wife of
John Jones) The husbands of the
daughters came along making elev-
en- wives, almost as formidable
with gun as the men, so the party
could provide entertainment for
good-sized band of wandering In
dians. AS ear MS is known the fam
lily was never attacked by Indians.
Henry, the second son, had two
daughters killed by the Indians
some time after the family divided
and he swore eternal vengeance
sgainst Indians. 1t is said that he
never missed an opportunity to kill
an Indian after taking that oath.

1t is to be regretted that the manager of the Three

league so lost his head that he published statements
declaring that his team had been robbed out of the
championship in The Star league after winning it 'far
and square," before his team had hearing at The

Cleaners. After the hearing his team awarded
the title, but his outburst uncalled for the
hearing was set for Thursday night his
protest was filed Such hasy action do harm
to The Stars efforts to give Seattle athletes chance
to compete in organized sport than would be imagined.
In order to have organization rules be laid down
and must be followed. Sometimes those rules to
tread the toes of particular individuals but they
must be followed out The Star charges nothing for
entry fees for any of its organization enterprises and
every team individual is given square deal under
the rules The Three Brothers manager should keep
his shirt on in the future in such instances instead Of
making such weird and hasty accusations
