SHINGLE WAR PENDING. Likely to Effect All Northwest Plants and People. A fight with shingle mill employes that will eventually spread throughout the state Is expected by shingle man ufacturers. The trouble at1 Bal lard has been followed Ivy smoJl strikes in a dozen shingle mill centers, and eventually the effort of the American Federation of Labor to control the shingle situation is expected to affect nil the manufacturers. Ballard, the largest shingle manufac turing town in the state, is bearing the. brunt of the figllt first.. Shingle .manufacturers had anticipated that some of the smaller towns, farther re moved from the labor market would bo attacked first. But if the struggle at Bullard is won, it will strengthen the mill employes' materially. 0. 0.

Thus far neith er Mr. Young or those working with him have presented any demands to the manufacturers, and Young's claim to the mill men has been that he ig merely bringing the mill employes in to the big patent' organization. Shingle inawufacturerv believe the work of the American Federation is in anjiitipaion of u slruggl tyver tHc Asiatic lulmr question. They expect preniptory demands to follow the ad justment of the big strike in the east. that are now pending. Few of the mill in this state are employing for eign labor now, but mill men under stand that there will lie an influx of Japanese labor for new railroad work. From two to five yearj later these men will have completed their Work, and it is argued, the American Federa tion is preparing to resist nn attempt to keep the Asiatic labor in this country. One of the striker of mill men was caused by the employment of Asiatic labor, Tho Atlas Lniber Company was employing Japanese in its yards at McMurry. The white laborers struck, but their places have been fil led. At Stan wood the shingle employ es struck for more wages. Two strikes have oeeured in Bellingbam mills. The Aberdeen Lumlier & Shingle Co. has two mills effected by strikes grow-, ing out of n increase in wages given packers. At Elma there is a minor strike and trouble is treported at var ious points. Crowing out of the Ballard strike, is expected to be an advance in prices for stars. The Ballard output is about IS per cent of the states total. Wil lapa Flarbop Pilot.

SACRAMENTO, April 13No vis ible sign of fear, W. M. Gray, the negro who murdeded a Chinese in this city in November 1904 ascended the gallows at Folsom prison this morning and was swung oflf into eternity. Gray passed the night quietly, sleep ing soundly at times, and this morning ate a hearty breakfast. He walked from his sell to the gallows without assis-l tance, and his execution passed with out incident, life being pronounced ex tinct eleven minutes after the the drop of the trap. The crime for which Gray forfeited his life was the killing of a Chinese mimed Wong Fung, whose dead body was found at an early hour one morning in an alley in Chinatown, his skull having been crushed with an iron bar. The mur der was done for the purpose of robbery as evidenced by the faet that the dead man's clothing had been searched and his pockets turned inside out.'1 Therv were no eye witnesses to the affair, and the evidence that convicted Gray was puiiy circumstantial. Yesterday a col ored divine of this city named MePher son filed a petition with the Governor asking clemency for Gray, but it was filed at such a iate hour that no action was taken.
