    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.
