SEATTLE FILLED
WITH UNEMPLOYED
.
Men Now Enter Restaurants and Or
der Meals Without Intending
To Pay for Them.
—
SEATTLE, Dec. 1.—Many unemploy
ed in this city have become desper
ate and now enter restaurants, order
expensive meals, and then walk out
without paying for them. When ar
rested they claim that they are starv
ing and that to be sent to jail will
not hurt them at all, but will at least
result in their receiving three meals
a day for the winter.
Conditions in this city are worse
than they have been for many years.
A large number of eastern people
and men from the middle west have
come to Seattle and other coast
towns, thinking conditions would be
better here than in the east, and as
a result the Pacific coast states are
now filled with men out of work and
without funds.
WASHINGTON MUST
AID UNEMPLOYED
OLYMPIA, Wash., Dec. 1.—The
next legislature will be asked to aid
the unemployed of this state by pro
viding for heavy public improvements.
The cities are heavily burdened with
men and women unable to secure
work because of the unsettled condi
tions and the state must take charge
of the task of providing for them.
LIQUOR DEALERS
TOjIGHT LAW
OLYMPIA, Wash., Dec. 1.—The Li
quor Dealers Association of this state
have raised a large fund with which
to fight the recently passed prohibi
tion law, which makes Washington a
dry state on January 1, 1916. The
brewers insist that it is class legisla
tion and as such is unconstitutional.
MINE EXPLOSION
KILLS 400 JAPS
TOKIO, Japan, Dec. 1.—A mine ex

In the death of 400 Japanese employ
ed in the power works located on

sion is not known.

MANY NEAR THE

night to several hundred people in
Eagle hall The delegate outlined his
