Shanghaied, Robbed, Beaten and
Placed In Irons by Sailor Boarding
House Keepers and Foreign Mas
ters. Speaking of the row between "Mys
terious" Billy Smith and his gang on
tho ono side, and tho sailors on tho
other, In Portland yesterday, an old
sailor snid to nn East Oregonian rep
resentativo:
'Among tho many nuisances and
cut-throat holes In the seaport towns
and cities the sailor boarding house
stands out preeminent for scenes of
rascality and bloodshed. Tho aver
ago sailor boarding houso proprietor
is not nearly so good as tho burglar
or highwayman. Tho burglar uses
some Industry at least to break Into
n houso or blow open a safo ami the
highwayman displays some nerve and
takes some risk, besides, u he does
not get anything he permits his vie
tlm to go his way.
"But the sailor boarding houso man
possesses 110 such virtues as these,
From tho time tho ship nrnves ho
prays upon the unfortunate slave of
the high seas until the ship's depart
ure. But this is not all, he sees that
ho does not carry away one cent ot
his earnings, be they for a year or
live years before the mast. And this
is the smallest of his sins. No
stranger who falls into his clutches
is exempt Ho will shanghai the best
as well as tho worst This ho has
often done and is doing every day.
Of course, he is a little more can
tious now than In former times; but
the Ignorant are still his victims.
"Unsophisticated young men or for
elgners drift into the cities in search
of work. They are met by a smooth
talker who would do something for
them. A few drinks are administered
socially, the victim is drugged If nee
essary, articles are signed by him
or for him. He is told that ho his
signed for a short, easy voyage to
some nearby port. He goes, aboard
tho ship and that ends the work of the
bollor boarding house keeper.
"The. victim may be carried to the
most distant country. Ho is compell
ed to scrub deck, climb tho mast,
work like a slave, and when he
reaches his destination, in one year,
two years, or longer, he finds that
he has not the means to return home.
The consul of his country is applied
to, but a common sailor has no stand
ing and no one believes him. He
may get transportation back home
and he may not. The sailor boarding
house keeper is the tool, the real
criminal responsible for all such out
rages. It is not a one-day, or one
instance cited either, but the work is
as regular as the coast towns and
cities as the ships come and go.
"It would take a book to tell their
methods and recite their crimes.
They are as varied as they are numer
ous. Tho victim is often attracted
aboard ship through curiosity, as all
like to view the majestic conqueror
of the deep. Once aboard they aro
guarded more closely than any prison,
er was over guarded on land. There
in tho scuttle hole of a ship they aro
placed in irons old-time irons such
as slaves wore in olden times, and
they arc compelled to wear them until
far enough away from land to prevent
any possible opportunity to escape.
"It is fun to the sailor boarding
house keepers and the brutal masters
o ftho ships, their henchmen, but hu
manity pays the penalty. While the
laborers of the land are finding relief
the slaves of tho sea are wearing the
same old yoke, made heavier by the
increased amount of labor placed up
on uiem.
"They Bpeak of mutinies at sea
The mutinies are usually tho rising
up ot human beings who have been
driven like galley slaves, half-fed and
nair-ciad, to work in storm and burn
ing sun until human endurance Is no
longer possible and who strlko one
last gasping blow at their tormen
tors.
"No wonder sailor boarding house
Keepers are discredited, They aro
among tho blackest spots on modern
civilization. They should bo
scourged like fiends. If all were tied
to the yard-arms of a rickety old ship
and sent adrift to sea, and the sea
gulls should prey upon them until
ueatn snouiu relievo them, they would
not nan way pay the penalty of their
crimes.
"The ideal llfo on the high seas,
and the real one furnish the great
est contrast within tho scope of men.
Tho rollicksome, fun-loving sailor,
smiling at tho mermaids, in a mvth
Thero aro exceptions of course, but
in iuu miijoruy or cases he is a slave
1 rum me time he leaves port until he
escapes irom tho vessel. Tho com
mon sanor is compelled to scrub

sand-paper deck, scrub it again, pom
eistone it again, paint it again, and
so on day after day, when ho is not
engaged in heavier work. If he gets

ous; If ho Is unablo to stand ho is
kicked and cuffed until ho Is cured or
laid out unconscious; and then for
this he Is locked in the hold and put
