DAILY TRIBUNE PAGE FIVE COURT RULING SPELLS END OF BISBEE FRACAS Tweftty-Five Leaders Identi- fied with Deportation of Striking Miners to Get a of Health Clean‘ Bil! action of Judge Morrow yesterday in sustaining. the demurrer and quash- ing the Bisbee déportation indict- ments probably brings to a close pro- ceedings on which 25 capita! ow: per mine owners, public officials, and citizens of Bisbee were indicted by a grand jury im April, 1918, for the deportation from Bisbes on July 12, 1917, of 1,186 striking copper mine workers and their alleged sympathi: ers. ‘ All were but five of the defendants arrested at Bisbee on May, 1918, and were released in $5,000) bond each. Walter Douglas, one of the five, was in New York City at that time but subsequently admitted service thru his attorney. Captain Harry C. Wheeler, who was in France with the United States | army aviation corps, sent a cable- gram to Bisbee in June accepting sole | responsibility for the deportations, | which he declared were made to rid the community of members of the Industrial Workers of the World, who, he alleged, were interfering’ with the government’s war program by hampering the output of copper. | ‘aptain Wheeler asserted his willing- s to face the charges, and, accord- | ingly, returned to the United States | on leave in. July and went to his| home at Tombstone, Ariz., where he | accepted service. The strike was called by the In- dustrial Workers of. the World, and was not sanctioned by the Interna- | tional Union of Mine, Mill and Smel-| termen, The demands made by the! strikers included increased pay, $6 > a day for underground men and | $5.50 a day for surface workers, al six-hour day and improved working | conditions. The strike continued in force with-| out either side giving evidence of | veakening, until July 12, when the | leportations occurred. Unknown to! , of the strikers, preparations had n- made by Sheriff Wheeler and | associates. At a_ signal, the | criff’s posse, consisting of more | han 1,000 armed’ citizens, began seiging the strikers and their sympa- thiz All persons who could not satisfactory account of them- renounce allegiance to the In-| dustrial Workers of the World and) promise to return to work in the| mines, were seized and marched to} the baseball park, where they were confined in a stockade until the| roundup was completed at-noon. | Two men were killed. during the | process of geizing the men to be de- ported. One of them, James Drew, fired thra a door when a posse sought to enter his room and killed Orson P. McRae. . The posse returned the fire and Drew was killed. Many men who were not strikers but who were sus- pected of sympathizing with them were taken and”deported. Prominent among these was William B. Cleary, a labor attorney. When the round-up had been com- pleted the prisoners were loaded into cattle chrs and freight cars and aken first to Columbus, N. M., and later tle train was hauled back to the desert station of Hermanas, a dozen ‘miles west of Columbus. There the United States army took charge of the deported men and removed them in a body to the military camp at Columbus, where they were cared for until in the fall when the refugee camp was closed and the men dis- persed. Many of them, their leaders erted, were not members of the Industrial Workers of the World, While the deportation was in progress a strict censorship was ¢€s- tablished. For several hours it was supposed that the censorship had been instituted by the United’ States nilitary author but it develope that the order for the censorship had been given by one of the defendants in the present case. In addition to the criminal cases against the 25 defendants in the fed- eral court at Tuscon, civil suits totai- ing $6,150,000 were filed in the state court at Tombstone against several corporations and individuals alleged to have been connected with the de- portation, 'n behalf of 286 of the men deported. LINCOLN COUNTY T0 SEE COUNTY DIVISION FIGHT —— (Star Valley Independent) In an effort to keep the influenza out of the valley in the future those in charge have decided to place the valley under*strict quarantine, and have ordered locked gates placed at the three different entrances to the valley. A gate will be placed on the Crow Creek, Cokeyille and Smoke River roads, and men hired to aet as satekeepers, who will be paid by the county. Those who must come to the valley must be placed under a quar-| antine for four days immediately | after their arrival.

Lord Bryce says, however: e “IT cannot think that this omission | was due to any doubt as to the neces-! sity, and indeed the solemn duty, of delivering all the Armenian districts utterly and forever from any vestige of Turkish rule.” self “so frequently and clearly to this deliverance, and, as we understand, | both President Wilson and the French rovernment have expressed selves so strongly in favor of such a] volicy, that we cannot doubt the! honest purpose of the government.” “It need hardly be said,” the state- ment coes on, “that to leave the Fast- ern Christians of Armenia and Syria under Turkish rule would excite the warmest indignatio&’ all over the country, and if possible still warmer indignation in the United States, where the interest in Armenia has been extremely great and has besa evineed by the enormous contribu- tions which have been made to the, relief of the Armenian refugees. “Can anybody in this country be found who thinks that after the three hideous massacres which the Turks ave perpetrated in Armenia since 1825, culminating in the worst mas- sacre of all in 1915, when 800,000, Christians perished, it would be pos- sible, for any Christian power, or | indeed any power of human feeling, to leave the Turk free to begin op-| vressions afresh, or to fail to show by turning the Turk out of the coun- try the anger and horror which his cruelties have excited? T need hardly | add that the presence of Turkish rule | with their great) in these regions, stragetical importance, would be ma- terial to Germany, if ever she saw her chance, in realizing her schemes for pushing her influence towards Persia and Central Asia, “ne fails to see any reason why the Turks, being absolutely at the mercy of the Allies, and having committed, with the tacit approval of Germany, the hugest single crime that has been committed in the whole course of the war, should not have been compelled to an absolutely unconditional sur- render, conditions have been granted to them who have shown that, whether under! Abdul Hamid or under ruffians like Enver and Talaat, they are capable | of the most revolting crimes?” Lord Bryce points out that the de- mobilization of the Turkish army will let loose a large number of armed | men accustomed to acts of violence} who will scatted over the country and/ for whom the Turkish government will not atempt to provide, Another thing to consider, he says, | is that Allied forees, if an the spot,’ could rescue many of the Christian Monday morning, and it is thought by taking theses precaweions. no new cases women seized by the Turks and car-| sted: ak?) ta ‘ha. sla inté.slevery. ox.to Somewhere in the U.S. A.
