Joe Hill Night!
Come out to support
Alternative Media!

Friday, November 19th,
will be Joe Hill night,
A BENEFIT FOR THE
Portland Alliance.

We plan to commemorate
when Joe was executed
on a bogus murder
charge by the state of
Utah in 1915. The location
will be Clementine's
at 510 NE 28th (at Glisan),
General Strike will play and
we will find someone to
headline 
the show. I will be back in town on oct 19th
and will have heard from the Citizens Band of Olympia,
our first choice of performers.  Please start spreading
the word about the show so we can raise enough money
to get the paper moving again.  Stress what a good
cause it is to all your friends, 

In solidarity, Howard Rotstein,
Distribution Committee of The Portland Alliance
