THE MORNING OREGONIAN. SATURDAY, JULY 21, 1917. KLAMATH FALLS IS POLITE BUT RRM Dan Powers Convinced Town Is Determined to Deal With 1. W. V. in Its Own Way. ARMED COMMITTEE. GREETS Portland Attorney Denies He Was Ejected From City Opportunity lor Lawyer Desiring Ac tion Declared Good. Any rising young attorney who yearns for action can find It in Klam ath Falls as counsel for the Interned I. W. W. Such is the conclusion of Dan B. Powers, who returned yester day morning' from the scene of strife. The local attorney was heralded by a story to the effect that his departure had been urged by a citizens' com mittee. Mr. Powers has another story to tell. "1 was well treated, and left on my own accord, having finished my busi ness," he Bald. "But the folk) of Klamath Falls left no doubt of their real attitude toward the I. W. W." Attorney Powers had planned a trip to Sacramento. It was suggested that he pause In Klamath Falls and in vestigate the I. W. V. disorder. He consented. Taking stage at Ashland, he rambled into the turbulent Klam ath country. Local Viewpoint Positive. "They meet you seven miles out," recounted Mr. Powers, dwelling on his reception, "mounted men with rifles and shotguns. And they want to know your business. When you come to the bridge at the edge of town they greet you again, with more shotguns. and they want to' know your business. I gave them my card and went In." Being an investigator on duty bent, the attorney's questions' presently marked him as one whose interest in the turmoil was ripe for counter-investigation. The chairman of the re ception committee, some 75 deputy sheriffs with full armament, gave At torney Powers the pointed local view. "We have 40 of them in Jail," ob served his informant, according to Mr. Powers, "and we calculate. In due sea Bon, to hang half of them and throw the rest in the river. See?" Attorney Powers replied that he did. Klamath "Wild With Excitement "The I. W. W. will have no legal representation, and there won't be any lawsuits," the attorney says he was in formed, "and anyone who comes in here to represent them will get the same treatment." The argument was on. The Portland attorney declares that he sought to show the futility of such a cburse, and that he predicted certainty of counsel for the accused men. Another com mittee waited upon him that night, in a local hotel, desiring information of his intent. The following afternoon, Attorney Powers says, he concluded his Investi gation, in which he was aided by Gov ernment officers and the District At torney, and left the city by the same bridge he crossed in entering. The shotgun squad there on duty gave him a mixed farewell. "Klamath Falls is wild with excite ment," said the returned adventurer. "They are running up and down the streets, all armed, and the stranger is halted and questioned every time he meets a deputy. Every train and stage is met, and it Is necessary to have a pass to get In and out of the city. They declare that they will not stand for any interference from outside sources, and that they are going to handle the I. W. W. themselves." Hood Pioneer Injured. HOOD RIVER, Or.. July 20.
