Doing a Google search, I happened upon this site which has numerous old books online. I am able to do full-text searches with the search engine on my Google toolbar. Below are some good results from such a search, although page numbers are
not provided on this book site and my address bar does not display a usable URL.

The Centralia Conspiracy
by Ralph Chaplin
[info found elsewhere re: this book
Publisher: BiblioLife
Pub. Date: August 2008
ISBN-13: 9780554291727]
Part 2 [no page numbers given]
Illustration: James McInerney
Logger. Born in County Claire, Ireland. Joined the Industrial Workers of the World in 1916. Was wounded on the steamer "Verona" when the lumber trust tried to exterminate the union lumberworkers with bullets at Everett, Washington. McInerney was one of those trapped in the hall. He surrendered to officers of the law. While in the city jail his neck was
worn raw with a hangman's rope in an effort to make him "confess" that the loggers and not the mob had started the trouble. McInerney told them to "go to hell." He is Irish and an I.W.W. and proud of being both.

[Although I do not know about this Centralia incident, other than Centralia is in central Washington state and Everett is on the coast, north of Seattle, the start of labor unions in the U.S. was accompanied by huge bloody struggles in places like Chicago in the early 1900s.]
