Testifying in Centralia Murder Case Punctures Defense charged thal the women of the city of Garrison were in sympathy with Kate Richards O'Hare, and the women, feel- and untgir, presented to the , editor of that paper a written request siga- ed by: 124 women, asking that suc impression be corrected, but the edi- tor, being under the whip and lash of the Townley regime, refused to make the correction. refused to sign the request, inc.ud- ing in their number, the wives of soci- alists, those indicted for disloyalty or who are notoriously in sympathy with the malicious and degrading propa- ganda taught by Mrs. O’Hare. =: Each of the 124 women requested ‘Montesano, Wn.

The three men were stationed on! Seminary Hill about 1,200 feet from Tower avenue, down which the parade passed, Bland testified. He was the fifth of six:of the de-' fendants who took the stand and told their story to the jury today. Elme;, Smith, defendant, and’ an attorney of Centralia, was on the stand when court adjourned, He will jnish to-: morrow and Ray Becker, ninth of the ten men being tried, will take the, stand, according to defense counsel); Loren Roberts will not be placed on the stand, George F. Vandervee:, de-! - fense counsel, said today. a Bert Bland, after testifying to at- tending various meetings in the I W. W. hall previous to the day of the | shooting, told of the events of the dar! of the parade. He was in the-hall on Tuesday. November 11, he testified. | He, Ole Hanson and ‘Loren Roberts} discussed plans to defend the hall against an alleged contemplated raid, he said, (Bland said he figured the soldiers would be armed when they rafded the hall. “We decided to go to the Queen| rooming house,” he said. “We went to Wesley Everest's room. He told us} we could’ use it. I did not tell him what! We wanted to go there for but I guess- | ed he knew, We looked out the win- dow, but did not like the situation. We came to the conclusion that the sold-j iers could easily surround the build- ing, so we decided we did not want to face that kind! of a situation. » “Then we decided to go to Semin- ary Hill. We had discussed the hill before.” : Bland then told of leaving -he Queen, Roberts, according to his testimony, going down town for scme- thing, he and Hanson going directly to the hill, They, waited about 15 minutes before Roberts reached the hill. Bland said, then waited about 45 minutes for the parade to com? up the street. Asked’ to describe what hd then saw and did, Bland said: “Tl saw ‘a. man on horseback at the corner (pointing on the map to Tow- er avenue and Second street) and| heard a command. I conlén't hear, what it was, but I saw the men break: ranks and rush toward the hal! Then I plainly heard glass fall—then shots.” “What then?” asked Vand-:cveer. “Then we commenced shooting.” re-! plied Bland. “I shot betwcen four and eight shots. After the shovting we! went east over the hill about a mile: or a mile and a half. We waited uv-! til around midnight and then sneaked out,evading the squad of soldiers that had surrounded us. We went north after hitting the railroad, Roherts leaving us, he following the tracks, It was a logging road. 1 went direct north again.” Dr. Frank J. Bickford about whose testimony there has been much con-} jecture, gave virtually the same tes- timony he gave when a witn ‘coroner's inquest at Centra days after the shooting. Although. Dr.| Bickford, who marched in the first | platoon just ahead of whic’: marched Grimm, ran back to the hali when he Saw other men rushing toward it none of those in the first platooa moved in that direction, he testifted This, ac- cording to state counsel, goes further to prove that Grimm committed no: overt act. at tre) 2 several PEOPLE'S FORUM {1 * | + | WOMEN RESENT INSULT | Garrison, N, D., Feb. 24, 1920, To the Bismarck Tribun In the issue of the Mc: Independent of Feb. an County | Sth, it was) i | | “WANTED [| Furnished rooms or small 9 cottage; two in family.

Also, a record of the mile- age of each car will be kept and the owner taxed for the total weight per mile per car per week! England taught her woman drivers to run an automobile efficiently by training them until they could drive through a narrow gateway with barely enough room to pass. That wouldn’t do here, even with many male drivers. They need elbow room and lots of it. Some motorists must think thei machines are human beings, by the way they load their car with so many “patent medicine” appliances and cure- alls, They can,still do it in Delaware, and Judge J..C...Conrad of the Court of General Sessions, there knows it. “The next motor car crook that comes before me,” he says, “will reccive first, the whipping post; second, imprisonment. for as long a term as I can make it.” Canada looks forward to the owner- ship of 500.000 cars in 1921.

Thompson, state highway en- gineer of New Jersey. says America’s expenditure for highway construction ; this year will be between $400 000.000 and $500,000.000. No longer will these roads be planned for only light motor traffic for. the motor truck is being used more and more by the farmer to bring his produce into the city, and the loads are the most traftic the trucks could bear. . “The advent of the smooth pavement,” says Thompson, “has. brought about a radical change. Hun- dreds of farmers now load from two to four tons on trucks and make two or three’ trips in the time fornierly consumed in making one trip with only one or two tons. . hard &. + > TO CORRECT MISFIRING Sometimes misfiring of your én- gine may not be due to a faulty soark plug, leaky valve or broken piston rings. If you intake manifold is struck by cold air, that will cduse the mis- firing as will the other more obvious catises. In this case No. 2 cytinder will ‘be the one at fault, because the cold air will chill the front side of the intake manifold at the -first branch, thus, condensing the mixture and carrying the liquid into the com- bustion chamber of iNo. 2.

The tread is where the tire shou'd wear, But riding the car along car tracks wears the tires along the sides—a weak spot. Besides, there’s greater liability to skid, when turning out.
