St THE SUNDAY OREGOXIAX, PORTLAND, OCTOBER 14; 1917. 1. JOHNSON HAS NO USE FOR I. W. W. Representative FromWashing ton Hotly Resents Defense, of Agitators. RETORT IS ALWAYS READY Men Who Defamed TJ. S. Soldiers KnewAVcII What They Were Do ing and What Consequences Would Be, lie Says. OREGOXIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash ington, Oct. 13. (Special.) Mention of the I. W. V. in the presence of Repre sentative Albert Johnson has the same effect on the Washington Representa tive as the proverbial red flag: has on the bull. Several times during the re cent session of Congress Mr. Johnson has jumped into the debates when some attempt was made by other members to Justify the activity of the I. "VV. W. On the closing day of the session Meyer London, the Socialist Congress man, turned loose a speech in defense of the I. W. W. and in criticism of those who undertook to restrain their activ ities in certain instances. Before he got through Mr. l,ondon had drawn Representative Johnson into the de bate, and the following set-to occurred between the members: Mr. London Things aro becoming unbearable. In order to make the world safe for democracy, a very charming slogan, we have permitted to go unpunished one of the most abominable acts in the history of this country the deportation of 1200 men by a lawless crowd speaking in the name of law and order in the state of Arizona. "VVe have been too busy to take it up. This outrage was commit ted three months ago. The men are still in exile. They dared oppose a powerful corporation. We have tol erated the lynching of a man in Butte, Mont., because he. stood for the rights of the laboring people. Soldlrre Called Scabs. Mr. Johnson, of Washington Mr. Speaker, did not that man who was lynched in Butte persist in saying night after night, from a soapbox, that sol diers were nothing but scabs in uni forms? Mr. London Yes, but if the gentle man from Washington (Mr. Johnson is willing to punish careless and foolish words by death nobody else would, par . ticularly in the American Congress. No matter how foolish a remark may be our laws and statutes would provide a penalty, but that penalty is not death. The penalty of death, the penalty of lynching, can only be advocated by savages, by men who have lost all sense of right and wrong, and a member of Congress should be. the last person in the world to attempt to condone the Infamous crime of lynching. Mr. Johnson, of Washington Did not ;his more or less madman know that (i-hen he went one bit further each flight he most certainly would bring furious consequences upon , himself if rje abused and defamed the soldiers of Ihe United States? Mr. London I do not know whether that man was mad. Mr. Johnson, of Washington I say that he was a half-mad man. Mr. London I do know that the men who commit the crime of lynching are criminals, are a dastardly crowd, whether they consist of business men, corporation lawyers, or other tools of a corporation. These gentlemen have nuspended not only the Constitution, not only common sense, but they have sus pended the decalogue. They have sus pended every law of reason. Here we have this illustration of a member of Congress trying to justify lynching on the floor of the House. Mr. Johnson, of Washington Oh, I teg the gentleman's pardon. Will the gentleman yield? Mr. London No, I shall not yield any more. Crime IVot Defended, Mr. Johnson, of Washington The gentleman must not charge nie with defending that crime. I am saying that lie knew what the consequences would be. This man defamed the soldiers, and he knew what the consequences would be, and if he got it he knew he was going to get it. Mr. London Why, I tell you I can rightly say that the gentleman is an advocate of lynching. Mr. Johnson, of Washington No, ' I am not. Mr. London And I am quite sure that the lumber interests of the state of Washington approve the attitude of the gentleman from Washington. Mr. Johnson, of Washington Mr. , Speaker, will the gentleman yield for a question? Mr. London No, I shall not yield any more. a WHITE SOX WIN, 8 TO 5 (Continued From First Pap.) the two clubs received $31,231.35 each and the National Commission $6940.36. In many respects today's game de veloped features which have been for eign to previous diamond battles of the present series. Twenty-five players ap peared in the lineup of the American and the National League pennant win ners. After having gone 24 innings without scoring a run against the Giants the tsox turned and piled up eight tallies, while the losers collected five, making a total for the day of 13, more than half as many as the entire scoring of the two teams in the first lour clashes. In making these 13 runs the batters piled up an aggregate of 26 hits and nine fielding errors thrown in for good ieasure. Seventy-seven batters faced Fix pitchers and while there were un limited thrills and tese situations there was no one player who could claim the spotlight of heroism in this melange of hits, errors, fielding, flashes and sprints from base to base. I'ans Care ot for Cold. A perfect Autumn day greeted th players as they stepped on the" diamond for the opening plays of the game. It was clear and just a trifle cold, but the fans did not appear to notice the tinge In the atmosphere. Here and there were vacant spaces in both stands and bleachers, and there were no crowds on tTie buildings overlooking Comiskey J'ark. The trees and high fences of Armour Square Park were fanless, but the noise of the rooting fans could be heard for blocks away. Little' time was lost by the two teams in getting into action and the Giants, first to bat. rolled up a two-run lead before the White Sox could check their rush. Burns, the initial New Yorker to face Russell, was forwarded to first on four straight balls when the Sox left-hander found it impossible to locate the plate. Captain Herzog came next with a sin gle to right and Benny Kauff doubled to the right-field bleachers' fence, scor-.il.- . - . ing Burns. With Zimmerman waving j called to the bench after delivering just eight balls, and Eddie Cicotte was sent in to hold the Giants in check. Zim merman hit to Weaver and Herzog was nipped . at the plate. Fletcher drove to McMullin, whose quick throw caught Kauff at home and the thou sands roared their approval of the White Sox' splendid defensive play. Zimmerman, who had moved up on the outs, scored on Robertson's single to center, and with two runs In Cicotte grabbed Holke's hit and tossed htm out at first. Sox Score in Third. The Chicago team tried desperately to meet this advantage of the Giants, and had three men stranded- on the bases in its half of the inning, but it was not until the third that the Sox were able to get a runner home. After McMullin had filed out to Robertson, Eddie ColliiA worked Sallee for a pass. Jackson made a strong effort to send Ifis field captain around, but the best he could do was to raise a fly to Rob ertson. Felsch was more fortunate, however, his double to left field send ing Collins home with the Sox' first run. The Giants increased their lead by scoring another two runs in the fourth and appeared to feel they had the game won. Rariden singled to right and Sallee sacrificed him to second. On Burns' single to right and J. Collins' error in fumbling the ball, Rariden scored and Burns took second. Weaver followed with a fumble of Herzog's roller and the batter was safe, while Burns went to third. Kauff . rolled another to Gandil, who made a poor throw to Eddie Collins, covering first, and Burns scored. Zimmerman ended the inning by hitting into a double play, Weaver to Eddie Collins to Gandil. eliminating both Kauff and -himself. Sallee Gets In Trouble. The White Sox got their artillery working in the sixth and began the fusillade which finally won the game. Gandil went out, Sallee to Holke. Weaver singled to left and Schalk hit to center, and the rooter3 began to lift their voices in unison, for Sallee was in trouble and showed it. Manager Rowland sent Risberg to bat in place of Cicotte. and McGraw made a motion as though to take Sallee out, but ap parently changed his mind. Risberg slammed the ball to right, scoring Weaver. Collins and McMullen left their teammates stranded by going out on infield plays. Claude Williams, a southpaw hailing from Springfield. Mo., succeeded Cicotte on the mound and the Giants imme diately punctured his delivery for ono run. Fletcher doubled to left and Rob ertson attempted to sacrifice. His ef fort resulted in a pop fly which Will iams caught, but dropped as he fell. Holke was injured when the ball glanced from his bat to his face but pluckily resumed after a delay and fanned. Rariden came through with a single to right, scoring Fletcher, and the Giants had finished their day's run getting. C'heera Greet Hits. Not so the White Sox, however. After Eddie Collins had flied to Fletcher, Joe Jackson hammered out a single to left and Felsch slammed another in the same direction, while the crowd roared its approval with an ever-increasing volume of cheers, yells and automobile horns. Chick Gandil rose to the emer gency with a double that flashed be tween Kauff and Robertson, and Jack son and Felsch scampered home with two more runs. Weaver went out, Fletcher to Holke and Schalk got a free trip to first on Sallee's wtldness. Lynn was sent in to hit for Williams. Be fore he could hit the ball Schalk stole second and the Giants' infield went up in the air. and after throwing the sphere about for several seconds Fletcher hurled to Rariden to catch Gandil. The heave was wild and. the White Sox first baseman trotted across the plate with the tieing run. After this nightmare Lynn ended the inning by fanning. With the score tied at five all the Chicago players went after Sallee again in the eighth and won the game with another trio of runs, although one would have answered just as well. John Collins opened with a one-base wallop to right. McMullin sacrificed him to second and Eddie Collins sent him home with a single to center. Jackson put his field captain on third with a simi lar hit. Kauff's throw to Zimmerman was too late, to net Collins and when the Giants' third baseman whipped the ball wildly back to second to stop Jack son, Collins came home and Jackson raced around to third. Perrltt bofn to Rescue. Sallee pitched one ball to Felsch and then Manager McGraw decided to re lieve him. I'erritt was substituted and Felsch greeted the new hurler with a Texas leaguer to center, on which Jack son scored.. Gandil filed to Burns and Felsch then ended the inning by going out in stealing second, and the White Sox, after putting the Giants out in one, two, three order, raced for their train and were soon on thir way to New York, where they hope to repeat again on Monday.

Illmes, Secretary of Ore icon Pioneers Association Re views History of Oregon City and Its Pioneer Settlers. OREGON CITY, Or.. Oct. 13. (Spe cial.) In the Fall of 1845 a wagon train of settlers, with their stock and household effects, drew into Whitman Station and established camp there for the Winter. The next Spring they took the trail again, crossed the mountains and camped near Oregon City. They crossed by way of Mount Hood, trailing through what is now called the Sandy country, and In the late Summer of that year the first wagon drew up at the ford on Abernethy Creek, across the river from the Clackamas County seat. Seventy-one years later, on Saturday, October 13, in memory of the first wagon of pioneers, a bronze memo rial was erected on the spot where those weary travelers stopped near the narrow Abernethy and saw their future home. History says the spot where the train camped for the Winter Jies about six miles west of the present site of Walla Walla, and the settlers were compelled to cut their way through the timber to widen the Indian trail to establish a road. The road was named after William Barlow, who. with T'hil Foster, passed the Spring of 1847 In cutting away the trees and stumps that obstructed traffic at that time. Monument In I nveiled. Saturday the Willamette Chapter, Daughters of the American Revolution, unveiled the monument. which they erected to commemorate the event, witli a ceremony befitting the occasion. The principal speakers of the day were W. H. H. Dufrn, president of the Oregon Pioneers' Association, and George II. Illmes, secretary. Following prayer led by the Rev. W. T. Milliken. E. C. Hack ett delivered the opening address of welcome to the visiting chapter. Mr. Himes' address pertained to the history of Oregon City and especially to Dr. Sam Tarker, who located there in the year 1835. neer and spoke of the hardship they endured following their arrival in the West.
