MONTESAN'O, Wash., Feb. 15.
fSDecial.) Midway in the presenta
tion of its evidence and testimony
against 11 I. W. W. defendants on
trial in superior court for the mur
der of Warren O. Grimm, who fell in
the Centralis Armistice day attack,
the state tomorrow morning will re
sume with evidence in proof of Us
contention that shota were fired by
the defendants from the Arnold room
ing house and Seminary hill.
Twenty witnesses will be called
tomorrow by the state to testify re
tarding the death wound of Warren
O. Grimm, Centralia. who was struck
while standing at the head of his
platoon. Previous witnesses have
testified that Grimm and his men
were marking time when the bullet
found its target, and that the missile
apparently came from the Avalon
hotel, fired, the state contends, by
Eugene Barnett.
Those summoned will give more
exact testimony regarding Grimm's
location in the parade line, and de
scription of the formation of the
Centralia contingent when" its leader
staggered away, pierced by a missile
of a .38-53-caliber, which rent him
o terribly that death came in but
a few hours.
Proof Held Concloarve.
So far as the Avalon hotel is con
cerned, the state has presented what
it holds to be an abundance of proof
that firing came from that source.
It was apparently from the Avalon,
according to one witness, that the
colors of America were fired upon,
bullets speeding between the color
bearer and the flag he bore. Un
shaken testimony has been given in
identification of Eugene Barnett, de
fendant, as a rifleman stationed in
the Avalon.
In its opening statement the defense
utterly denied that there was firing
from the Avalon or that members of
the I. W. W. were stationed there.
The defense denied also that shots
were fired from the Arnold, though
admitting that Commodore Bland and
John Lamb, defendants, were armed
and in ambush in an upper room.
Cross-examination of the proprietor
of the Arnold, state's witness, elicited
the testimony that he heard no shots
from the upper windows- of the hotel,
though he stood beneath on the side
walk as the firing became general.
Barnett la Identified.
Today the state will bring forward
numerous witnesses, it is said, to sup
port the contention that riflemen in
the Arnold hotel did fire upon the
parade. The state declares that proof
in this regard is as conclusive, if not
more so, than that of the firing from
the Avalon. Witnesses already have
testified that they saw a rifle fired
from the Avalon and that Eugene
Barnett was the man who fired.
Seminary Hill, from which vantage
to the eastward three riflemen are
alleged to have sniped at the distant
parade, also will be Btormed by the
state toaay in ine presentation of tes
timony. The state names Loren Rob
erts and Bert Bland, defendants, as
two of the three radicals who fired
from the hill. The third. Ole Hanson,
escaped fugitive. Roberts' confession
admits the presence of three on the
hill and the share they took in the
attack. The prosecution will now
bring forward other witnesses to
prove the presence of the two defend
ants on the hill and their participation
in the ambuscade.
Of the several witnesses who testi
fied last week that legionaries were
hailed on Tower avenue, marking
time, when the firing was opened
upon them, and that the service men
had made no rush upon the hall be
fore lh-y were under fire and their
comrades stricken, none was shaken
from this line of testimony by the
Mrrnuous cross-examination of the
defense.
K.nd of Cane In Siekt.
"It is entirely probable that the
state will conclude Us case by the end
of the week," said W. 11. Abel, spe
cial prosecuting attorney, in comment
toniirht.
J. W. Franklin, ex-service man, who
is a resident of Oregon, and who par
ticipated in the armistice day parade
at Centralia. Wash., when four veter
ans were slain, is sought by the state
to testify in superior court of Grays

where the trial of the men charged
with the crime is now in progress.
Franklin is asked to communicate

Unfairness of Breaking Contracts
' Covering Five-Year Period
Emphasized In Fight.
OREGOXIAN NEWS BUREAU.
Washington, Feb. 15. Through the
efforts' of Representatives French and
Smith of Idaho, Hayden of Arizona
and Hernandex of New Mexico, the
provision of the agricultural appro
priation bill, providing for wiping
out leases and permits for grazing
privileges at the beginning of the
fiscal year 1921 on forest reserves,
was stricken from the bill.
Representative French pointed out
that there were thousands of persons
to whom permits had been granted."
who were using the forest reserves
and paying to the government graz
ing fees that -amounted last year to
more than $2,600,000.
He said that practically 40.000 peo
ple had permits from the government
for grazing cattle, horses, - swine,
sheep and goats on the forest re
serves; that Idaho stands first in the
list of sheep being grazed on forest
reserves, the total number being
1.75S.S77 head of sheep and permits
have been issued to 1093 persons.
He pointed out that it is unfair to
any business to violat a contract
upon which the business rests, .and
that these permits, which were issued
for a period of five years, should not
be allowed to be arbitrarily broken,
but should continue until the expira
tion of the permit.

Chairman Cummings Joyfully De
clares "Tide Has Turned"
in Favor of Party.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 15. Election
of Captain Jacob L. Milligan, demo
crat and league of nations advocate,
over John E. Frost, republican and
league opponent, in yesterday's con
test in the 3d Missouri congressional
district, was . hailed by Chan-man
Cummings of the democratic national
committee in a statement tonight as
disclosing "that the people are thor
oughly dissatisfied with the present
leadership of the republican organiza
tion." President Wilson today received the
following telegram from F. H. Moyer
or Jefferson City, Mo.
"Missouri's show-me district, the
3d, indicates its loyalty and its com
mendation of your administration by
a majority for Milligan of 2500. I de
sire to express to you my pleasure and
sincere congratulations."
Chairman Cummings in a formal
statement said: -
"Advocates of prompt ratification
of the treaty of peace have been
heartened and obstructionists have
been dismayed by the triumphant elec
tion to congress on Saturday in the
3d Missouri district of Captain Jacob
L. Milligan, the democratic nominee.
"A clear cut issue over the. league
of nations was presented. The ques
tion was thoroughly debated in the
campaign extending over several
weeks. The result is unmistakable.
Aside from the gratifying indorsement
of the president's position, the elec
tion, held in a typically mid-western
agricultural section, disclosed that
the people are thoroughly dissatisfied
with the present leadership of the re
publican organization and are pre
paring to return the full power in the
nation to the party that during the
last seven years has so completely
demonstrated its constructive ability.
It has been a hard struggle, but the
tide has turned."
For the purpose of determining the bonds last night and is in the county

Puts IDEAL HOT WATER HEATING comfort at low cost
in cottages, flats, or stores, with or without cellars
The IDEAL-Arcola takes the place of a parlor stove. -But a
stove wastes much of its heat up the chimney, whereas the
IDEAL-Arcola is water-jacketed, and conveys its heat by hot
water circulation through pipe-connected AMERICAN Radiators
stationed in the adjoining rooms. Every bit of the big volume of heat
developed from each pound of fuel is therefore made useful in keeping
ALL the rooms uniformly, healthfully warm. There is no coal-waste,
The' IDEAL-Arcola does not rust out or wear out will outlast the
building is a genuine, permanent investment!
Shipped complete ready for immediate operation
The beauty of the IDEAL-Arcola method is that no cellar is needed. Everything is on
one floor. The Areola is placed in any room that has a chimney connection. No run
ning to cellar. If there are two or more tenants in the building, each can have his own
Areola and make the temperature to suit his own needs can make his own climatet
If you do not wish at first to heat the entire building, buy a small size IDEAL-Arcola
and later on buy extra sections for the IDEAL-Arcola and two or three more radiators
to warm more rooms. ,
Simple way of heating a four-room cellaring cottage by IDEAL
Areola Radiator-Boiler and three AMERICAN Radiators.
' Cleanly heating healthful heating
free from fire risks!
Unlike stoves, there are no coal-gas leaks into the living-rooms. The
IDEAL-Arcola delivers the soft, radiant warmth of hot water cot the
dry, bumt-out atmosphere of stove heating. There is no fire risk to
building no danger to children fire lasts for hours I The Areola burns
