NEWS NOTES,
An Opening: I'or Various
Manufactories.
MOB LAW IN NEW ORLEANS-
A Sciioel Teacher in Trouble A PrisoMr
Jniuni Tbrougb a oar
Window.
Wu notice from oar exchanges several
towns throughout the country are taking
stps and doing all in tfeeir power for the
establishment of manufacturing Industries
in their town. This is a move In the right
direction. There are a number o: indus
tries such as woolen mills, canning factor
ies, match factories, wooden ware, sh?1i
and door and various other kinds ot manu
facturing istablishmcnts that would be a
paving investment in our town. Our citi
ens should take immediate steps to secure
some of these. Nothing gives a 'own more
solid foundation than manufactories. We
have much better facilities than many other
towns that are now working t secure these
enterprises. A little exertion on the part
of our citizens in this direction would not
he out of the way. and would no doubt re
sult in much benefit to tho town, especially
to the property owners. Thcv are the ones
to be mostly benefitted. It is within thoir
power to enhance the value of their prop
erty to double what It is now worth. Sub
scribe liberally to manufacturing enterpris
es. Do not think because it may benefit
your neighbor, who perhaps is far more
able but cannot see matters In the same
light and will not subscrlbo anything, that
it Is any reason you should not. This class
of people are to be found in any commun
ity and if our enterprising citizens hold
back and depend on thorn they will get loft.
The succeossful business man is the one
who pays no attention to his neighbor when
it comos to a business proposition. Ho in
vests his money where it will bring him the
largest returns regardless of how much it
may benefit his neighbor. It is within the
power of our citizens to make Union one of
the best towns In Eastern Oregon. To do
this we must have manufactories. They
can be secured.
The men of worth to a city or community
are those who forget their own selfish ends
long enough, and who are liberal enough in
their ideas to push all projects calculated
to advance a city and enhance its import
ance to tho commercial world. The enter
prise and push of the citizens of any com
munity is the foundation of success. Men
who come to a place to make it their future
home, who cannot look far enough before
them to soe that money placed judicious
ly in public enterprises will be increased
thrco-fold in their own property are to be
pitied. They are the class who aro ready to
take all they can of another's enterprise
but are quite unwilling to do anything them
selves. Ono of the most startling tragedies ever
anacted in tho streets of an American city
'occurred in Now Orleans on the 11th inst.
A body of respectable and responsible citi
zens broke into the city prison, shot or
hanged eleven prisoners and then quietly
dispersed to their home. The act was a
culmination of a long continued strain up
on public .sentiment caused by the efforts of
an organized secret society of alien residents
to defeat the ends of justice.
The story dates back to tho murder of
Chief of Police Ilennessy on tho 15th of last
October. Ilennessy had discovered that a
branch of the ancient secret society known
in Italy as tho"Cainorra'' was plying a bus
iness of blackmail among the peaceable
Italian rcsidonts of the city. Chief Ilennes
sy had learned of a caso in which notice of
assasination had boen given to an intended
victim who hud refused to submit to a de
mand for blackmail. Ho could not trace
the authors of the threat, but ho determ
ined to provont the murder. Tho marked
man was taken in a rowboat ono night and
rowed by Chief Ilennessy himself to a ves
sol bound for Italy and put aboard. This
did not savo him, for the New Orleans
branch sent word to its Italian headquar
ters and he was killed shortly after his ar
rival, but it infuriated tho Camorra. Hon
nessy's crusade against them bcoamo hotter
ami they determined to kill him. He was
shot down at his own door by threo men
who were subsequently identified as tho
murderers. When tho facts became known
there was an outburst of public indignation
that nearly rose to tho lynching point
then and there. A committee of fifty was
omunized; nearly all of tho loading men of
tho Italian colony were arrested; asucscrlp
tion was started for tho purpose of aiding
tho prosecution, and meetings wero held to
denounce the Camorra and call for its sup
pression. The trial of the prisonors charg
ed with the murder of Ifoiinessy resulted
Friday in a verdict which roused tho com
munity to a pitch of fury. Tho jury acquit
ted six of the aseused and disagicod regard
tho othor throe. As tho verdict was road
each person in tho court room turnod to his
neighbor and there was an audiblo expres
sion of surprise and dissatisfaction. Tho
deputies, however, Immediately suppressed
the nelse and the judge ordered tho jury to
bo discharged and the prisoners to bo re
manded, us thore was still another chargo
against them in connection with tho same
case. The feeling of the populace was fur
ther irritated by the fact that the flags of
the Italian shipping in the harbor were hois
ted tu celebrute the acquittal. ,
The xxrirnce of Sherilf Holies of Union
countv. with Arnold the murderer, has been
repeated by the Spokane county sheriff and
two of his deputies. On Sunday night's
train they were taking three prisoners from
Spokane Falls to the Walla Walla pen. Two
wero siiaoklod together with leg Irons, it
was supposed In a manner to prevent the
possibility of escape. After passing Holies
Junction thee two prisoners asked per
minsiou to enter the toilet room, which was
gi anted. Hiorlly after the officers, heroin
in -upic.oUB, followed them. It was found
Unit they immI hi some manner rewovvd the
iron .mil that k'm h id j'i up tin"' Hi iln

aot of jumping. Vhe train was stopped
Immediately and the two deputies left on a
i c banc for the escaped prisoner. The two
others wee taken to Walla Walla by the
sheriff and aro now behind prwon bars.
There is little doubt that the one who made
his osenpe Will be recaptnred by theoflieers.
