interested in this movement, the people carrying on the propaganda and
the people fighting the propaganda, and I saw the people who were
fighting the propaganda use direct action, sabotage, and every power,
political and industrial, they used it all to whip this organization,
and then I asked myself why are they fighting this organization. And the
more deeply I became interested, the more clearly I saw why they were

Mrs. Louise McGuire followed this witness with testimony about injuries
she had received thru the rough treatment accorded her by citizen
deputies engaged in breaking up a street meeting.

W. H. Clay, Everett's Commissioner of Finance, was brought on the stand
to testify that he was present and active at the conference that
resulted in the formation of the citizen deputies.

John Berg then related his experiences at the time he was taken to the
outskirts of Everett and deported after McRae had kicked him in the
groin until a serious injury resulted. Owing to the fact that the jury
was a mixed one Berg was not permitted to exhibit the rupture. This
witness also told his experience on the "Wanderer" and his treatment in
the jail upon his arrest.

Oscar Lindstrom then took the stand and corroborated the stories of the
witnesses who had testified about the shooting up of the "Wanderer" and
the beating and jailing of its passengers. H. Sokol, better known as
"Happy," also told of his experience on the "Wanderer" and gave the
facts of the deportation that had taken place on August 23rd.

Irving W. Ziegaus, secretary to Governor Lister, testified that the
letter concerning Everett sent from the Seattle I. W. W. had been
received; Steven M. Fowler identified certain telegrams sent from
Everett to Seattle officials by David Clough on November 5th; after
which Chester Micklin, who had been jailed in Everett following the
tragedy, corroborated parts of the story of Louis Skaroff.

stage of the trial by the placing of Mrs. Lawrence MacArthur on the
stand. This witness, the proprietor of the Merchants Hotel in Everett,
produced the hotel register for November 4th and showed that Mrs.
Frennette had registered at that time and was in the city when Gibbons
claimed she was holding a conversation in an apartment house on Yesler
Way in Seattle.
