THE THEE COMMERCIALCLUB SPIRITThe spirit which led to the murder of Everett is breathed in a letter received by the 1. W. W. of Seattle. The man writing the following letter is a murderer in all but the opportu-nity and perhaps the courage. If he would murder it would be in the dark, slinking and squirming, a rattlesnake in all but the rattle.We reprint part of this stone-age letter which is unsigned, as one would naturally expect from the typeof cur that has been terrorizing theworkers of Everett.This murderous gentleman says inpart:“You know you are a God-damnedliar and a son-of-a , when youwired the president saying the Ever ett men fired first, and used a machine gun. You know we can prove there were 300 I. W. W.'s and 150 Everett men, only half or less of them armed. I wish they had a machine gunand killed all of you sons of andthrew your bodies in the bay.“1 hope the president sends out a bunch of soldiers to hang every one of you to a tree and fill you full ofbullets. Hoping all the 41 I. W. W. murderers get hung and the rest of them are kept in jail for life. J hope the president drives all you I. W. W.’s out of the country, as you are nothing but a bunch of murderers,♦ ouble n lt;i and loaflt; i ”
