Vuh., July 4. The people : of . Klickitat county obnerved the n- tlopal holiday by dedicating a memorial ' to the aoldtera ami aallora of the county Vho have given their Uvea in the. strug gle agalnnt Hun barbarism. . -. The names of those thuii honored were: Dewey V. Bromley. John W. Che V ahler, James B. Duncan. Robert V. " Graham, Carl , A. Lester and Robert F. Venable, s TYim mmArli I whlrh hn hMn erected on the farm, of .Samuel on a point overlooking the, Columbia river, consists of a large altar stone copied after the - one found Among the curious stones of Stohehenge on the plains of Salisbury. , England. . Aocordlnrfto tradition this altar stone . iv as used for the sacrifice of victims to the heathen god of war, sometimes cap tfves. sometimes expiatory offerings of home warriors. The central thought, as explained by Mr. Hill who designed the memorial, being that the nature of hu manity never changes and that though ; , many centuries have passed since the days of Stonehenge the world is still , making Its sacrifices to the god of war. f On the altar stone was affixed a brass -.plat with this Inscription : t Has Six Barnes '"III memory of the soldiers and sailors of Klickitat county who - save their Memorial monument to soldiers unveiled today at llaryhill. Wash lives In defense! of their country. This monument Is erected In the hope that others inspired by the example of their valor 'and their heroism may share in that love of liberty and burn with that fire of patriotism which death alone can quench." Besides bearing the names of the six who have already . lost their lives in the war, space haa been left on the memorial for the Addition of other names as they fall. The dedicatory ceremony lasted two hours, from 1:30 to 3:30 o'clock, and was in charge Of the following commit tee: C. F. Camplan, Mrs. H. W. Don ner, Robert F. Graham, Carl A. Lester and Robert F. Venable. In addition to residents from all parts of Klickitat county there were a score of prominent people from Seattle and Portland as guests of Samuel Hill. The ceremony was opened by an in vocation by R. H. Thomson of Seat tie. The principal dedicatory address was by Nelson B. Brooks of Golden dale, chairman of the Klickitat county war council. Professor Edmond S. Meany of the University of Washing ton made the response of acceptance in behalf of the Washington University State Historical society. The part sailors play in the war was covered in an address by Frank Terrace of Orillla, Wash., and the response on behalf of the soldiers was by Colonel David M. Dunne of Portland. First Memorial Dedicated Incidental to the exercises was a bas- Two Women Cause Arrest of Harry Baker" Colored Water in Guise of Whiskey. ket picnic on the grounds. Following out the Stonehenge model the spot on which the altar stone was erected faces the sunrise at the summer solstice. The location was made by Professor W. W, Campbell of Lick observatory who was In charge of the party which observed the recent eclipse of the sun at Golden dale. The erection and carrying out of the purposes of the memorial was the work of the following -committee : Samuel Hill, E. NT. Hill. W. G. Collins, J. C. Potter and Charles H. Babcock. This Is the first memorial 'to be erected in the Northwest to commem orate the services of American soldiers and 'sailors in the present war and so far as known the first in the United-States. A clever bunco scheme was brought to the surface yesterday when ''Harry Baker, 'who had apartments In upper Washington street, was arrested and held for InvesVgation- The queer part of the case te that no legal charge seems to be available on which the man can be tried. He Is accused of almost vtoiat log the prohibition ordinance artd almost secuiinsr money under false pretenses; by selllnK "Old Crow" water in quart whiskey bottles for large sums. An at tractive label was on each bottle. It bore the words "Old Crow" In large, at tractive type on a white background. with "Aged, in the Woods" printed be low in a bright red background. Below this. In a gold frame, are the words "Ela-ht Years." to lead ' the prospective buyer to believe that he was getting some ideal old whiskey. But in small neat type, at the very bottom of 'the label the following statement la maae "This bottle contains 99 per cent water and 1 per cent artificial coloring." The contents truly contained no alco hol, but it is said that many cltisens of Portland and Seattle have been "stung" by the neat swindle. The capture of Baker was brought cbout when two young women, whom he is said to have brought to Portland from Seattle to help nm sell the goo-is. found themselves stranded in a strange city with no money and since they were unable to secure a little money from Baker, they decided to ask tor assist' ance from the Portland police. The police are now looking for Owen Baker, brother of Harry. Tillamook Yard Given New Contracts Tillamook.
