SCHEME TO FRAME
CHESWICK Miners
Broader Organization
Needed to Stop Murder

PITTSBURGH, Pa, Aug. 26.-The
arrest Of more than twenty miners
in Cheswick, Pennsylvania, arising
out of the attack by state troopers
upon peaceful protest meeting for
Sacco and Vanzetti, holds all the pos
sibilities for the creation of another
labor frame-up on a large scale.
Thousands of workers had gathered
in Cheswick, on the eve of the ex-
ecution, to urge the liberation of the
two martyred labor fighters, when a
troop of the state CosSacks rode into
the crowd with drawn clubs and guns.
Gas bombs were poised for use
against the unarmed and pacific
workers. Men and women were
struck at, right and left, by the Cos
sacks who have black anti-labor
reputation thruout the state and who
have been condemned time and again
by the Pennsylvania State Federation
of Labor and other working class or
ganizations.
Arrest Innocent
In the course of the attack, many
of the participants in the protest
meeting were seriously hurt by the
brutal and indiscriminate blows of
the troopers, and one of the troopers
himself was killed by shot, fired by
an unknown person. The police i'm
mediately arrested the large group
of workers and are searching for the
person who is supposed to have fired
the shot.

NEW WAHluKE FERRY

Henry Glanzman, Wahluke fer

ferryboat. The boat was former
ly the joint property of Kittitas
and Grant counties and was used at
Vantage until the new bridge
across the Columbia was completed
a short time ago and was sold at
public auction in Ellensburg Mon
day. Mr.. Chairman has been busy
this week hauling down the ap.
proaches, ETC., from Vantage and
as soon as these are installed and
some work done on the boat, il
will be used instead of the OLD
boat he has been using since he Sc
cured the Wakluke ferry franchise
several years ago:
The new boat is rated one of the
best on the Columbia and its in
stallation at Wahluke will mean an
improved ferry service. Another
step has been taken on the north

DEATH COMES SUDDENLY
TO A. {. BURDIN


A. E. Burdin died suddenly at
1880 p. M, Thursday, in the Good
Samaritan hospital in Portland.
The news reached White Bluffs in
a message from Mrs. 7Burdin to her
daughter, Mrs. Fred M. We'll,
Thursday evening". The message
contained no details but it is sup
posed that death resulted from in
juries received in an auto accident
on the Columbia River highway
about Is miles east of Portland
about two weeks ago. when Mr..
Burdin suffered two broken ribs
and an injured lung. He had been
receiving treatment for his injuries
in the Portland hospital since that
time and reports from the hospital
had indicated that he was making
a satisfactory recovery. The mes
sage telling of his death came as
a shock, therefore, ito his many
friends in this valley.
The body is being shipped to
Kennewick today. Friday, and the
funeral will be held at 2 O'Clock
Saturday afternoon in the Presby-
terian church in White Bluffs.

ATTORNEY ]. C. LLOYD TO
HELP IN Water CASE

While in the valley the first
of the week, Marvin Chase receiver
for the properties of the Black
Rock Power and Irrigation Company
and the Consumers Ditch Company
announced that he had employed
Attorney ]. c. Lloyd of White
Bluffs to direct the legal affairs of
the receivership during the illness OF
Judge Carol B. Graves of Seattle,
who was selected by Mr.. Chase
shortly after his appointment as
receiver but whose health for the
past few months has been such that
he could not give the case the nee
essary attention.
Judge Lloyd has general know
ledge Of the case and he says it
is his intention to go through the
files at once to fanliliarize himself
with all the legal phrases involved and
to bring, such suits as are necessary
to determine all legal points at
issue so as to urravel the tangle
preparatory to an adjudication of the
relative legal rights Of all parties
at interest.
Two of the most important of
these suits will be the one to deter
mine the status of the unpaid
maintenance charges and the one
involving delinquent payments on the
contracts for the purchase of land
and water lights.
Because of Judge Lloyd's loca-
ticn on the project his employment
as attorney for the receiver no doubt
give general satisfaction. He will be
handy for frequent conference with
the receiver as well as with interested
water right owners, as the different
steps are taken during the illness of
Judge Graves. If Judge Graves
health improves it is presumed that
he will continue to counsel in the

LLOYD WIEHl IN y OF W BAND

II was interested to read in the
Spokesman some time ago, about
Charles English and what he is doing
and accomplishing at w. S. c." writes
Russell Brown, a student at the Uni
versity of Washington, in letter to
the Spokesman dated November g.
Il think it is only fair that the u.
of w. boys get their share of publicity,
too. The boy whom I wish to talk
about is Lloyd. His accomplishments
are mainly along the same line as
those of Charles that is band.
"An entertainment given last
week by Kappa Kappa Psi, National
Bandsmen Honorary Fraternity for
all U. of w. bandsmen, the pledges
were announced and on the list of
seven pledges was overjoyed to hear
Lloyd's name. Kappa Kappa Psi is
very exclusive fraternity as there are
only twenty-five active members on
the campus, including seniors, juniors,
sopl fmoH,s and fraternity officers.
The selection is made on the basis Of
scholastic standing, spirit towards
Washington and the band, and rnusi-
cal ability.
eve had another very pleasant sur
prise yesterday when Lloyd was Sc
lected as one of the thirty members
of the band to accompany the Husky
football team to Berzeley, ,Sto play the
California Golden Bears. This will be
wonderful trip and one to be proud
of making, especially as representa-
tive of the best school in the West
the University of Washington. Lloyd
leaves today and will not get back un-
til next Monday morning. They will
be in Berkley two full days.
"Tke fact that two of the White
Bluffs Band boys have made good in
competition with men from all over
the country is surely a good boost for
the White Bluffs Band and mainly
for Mr.. English"
Russell says further, II have high
ambitions for next fall myself, but
that's long way off yet
