We H.W K advanced somewhat in the-« !a-t few vear-slowly but steadily. There is much more room for

progress Shall we continue to move forward «>r -hailwe -tand still," For you must remember tin-

It was not the John F. Millers who put their heartsinto the cause of progre-- and sacrificed their time andlabor to win a greater and broader liberty and humanityin this state. It was the <»eorge I- ("ottenlls who didthat. It was not the Lvnn liadlev- m Helltngham It

Seven were dead and 50 wounded and 297 in jailhere Mondayas a result of the gun battle between Seattle 1. W. W.'s and asheriff's citizens posse, in which 1,000 shots were fired when the1. W. W.'s tried to land at Everett from the steamer Verona, tohold a free speech demonstration there Sunday.

The list of dead was raised to seven when Deputy SheriffBeard, former sheriff of Snohomish county, died at 4:30 a. m.Monday. Five dead are 1. W. W.'s, who were brought back hereSunday.

There are 31 wounded 1. W.W.'s in the city hospital here, and 19wounded members of the citizens' committee being cared for atEverett.

There are 294 uninjured I. W. W.'s and three women organiz-er* in jail here. They were taken into custody when they returnedfrom Everett late Sunday.

That from three to five I. W. W. victims fell off the steamerinto the water after the opening volley was the opinion broughtout at die inquest conducted by Coroney Maulsby at Everett Mon-day morning.

"We have been dragging all morning," the coroner said atnoon, "but have been unable to locate any of the bodies. We arepretty certain that there are more dead. The testimony has estab-lished that." L,^A verdict was expected some time Monday afternoon.

Each faction Monday was preparing to charge members of theother faction with murder.

Frank P. Walsh, former chairman of the federal industrial re-lations committee, which investigated the Ludlow massacre, willbeasked to investigate the Everett affair, by Herbert Mahler, localI. W. W. secretary.

William D. Haywood, general I. W. W. secretary at Chicago,has been asked to send legal aid and advice.
