clusion seems to be to hold a delegate CON
vention for all sections of the Bismarck
land district and bring all possible press
ure to bear upon the Northern Pacific rail
road to grant concessions and work for
immigration. Some of the speakers

about 5000 CT stock in him. He passed
as the duly accredited and confidential

time to recall his exploits in the service of
the government. He was taken to Boze-
man by the sheriff for preliminary exami-
nation. He is wanted also in Michigan
and Louisiana.
