Hanford must go. nanimously indorsing The Star's attitude, the Central Labor Coun- cil of Seattle last night passed plainly worded resolutions denouncing Judge Hanford and demanding his impeachment. The resolutions were introduced by Delegate J. A. McCorkle and were signed by McCorkle, A. G. Brown, Matthew Blair and Deto Hengst. After several speeches favoring the adoption of the resolutions had been made, they were passed without a dissenting vote, as follows “Whereas, Federal Judge Hanford has issued a temporary injunction against the city of Seattle and against passengers traveling on the Seattle» Renton and Southern line, forbidding them to ask for transfers or to refuse to pay the fare demanded; and “Whereas, Judge Hanford has supplemented this by an- other order in favor of the Crawford interests, which virtually tells the people that they cannot secure transfers until they pay, three cents above the five-cent fare; and “Whereas, This judicial official clothed in the majesty of the people's law has, in our opinion, consistently and persistent- ly im his decisions favored corporations as against the public, Dollars as against Men; therefore be it “Resolved, That we, the Central Labor Council of the city of Seattle, condemn this corporation-serving judge as no true servant of the public. “That we applaud the people of Rainier valley in their stand for their own just rights against a predatory corporation and an unfair judge, and that we consider Judge C. H. Hanford to be in contempt of the whole people of this city.” " " s inh ii \COP CARRIES AN ALARM CLOCK s cmuamamaed HE MOVED A passenger who had a trans- fer that the conductor wouldn't take tied up the whole of the S.
