THE STRIKE
IN IDAHO
thursday Will be a Critical
Period
PERMITS MUST BE SHOWN
Or the Mines will be Summarily
Closed Down--Bloodshed may
Result on That Day.
PERMITS MUST BE SHOWN

Wardner, Ida. May 1.-THE crisis in
on Thursday of this week. Should the
period pass over quietly no more out
breaks of lawlessness need be looked
for during the continuance of military
rule. On the other hand, should there
be any clash this week between the SOL
diers and the lawless element in the
union it is impossible to tell what blood
shed may Ncur. Thursday is the last
day allowed under the recent proclama-
ton for working miners to apply for
remaining in underground employment.
On thai day the inspection of the mines
all over the Occur d'Alenes will COM
mence. 1t will be a rigid examination
and it will be conducted both by the mill
tary and the civil authorities. Every
mine which on that day is employing
men without permits will be summarily
closed, it's pumps drawn and a guard
placed over it.
Up Canyon creek, where none but union
miners are employed. they still sullenly
refuse to make application for the cards.
In order to secure a permit the miner
must renOunce membership in the society
which has fostered or encouraged" the
recent laWIeSSneSS IN the district. The
union is not named outright in the print
ed forms to which the applicant must
subscribe. Only about a dozen from all
the Canyon creek district have secured
the cards. OF those who remain many
are determined to stick doggedly to the
union to the last. Others are afraid to
take out cards until after the end of the
week.
Helena, Mont, May 14-Governor Smith
has addressed a letter to General Mer-
riam. commanding the military forces
in the Occur de'Alenes, while tina dis
trict is under martial law, to the effect
that no more arrests of persons sus-
pected to have been implicated in the
Wardner riot may be made in Montana
without proper authority from the state.
1t has been represented to the governor
by a Ommitte from the labor unions,
which waited on him four days ago, that
steps were being taken by General Mer-
Ram to arrest all miners in Montana
suspected of leaving the Occur d'Alenes
and If the military was permitted to do
so many men innocent would be deprived
of their liberty without process of law.

Do You Dream :.

The fullest examination into the ma
ture and origin OF dreams has been
made by M. Moreau. the French scien-
fist. He divides dreams into the dreams
of health and the dreams that are the
result Of a diseased state of mind or
body.
With regard to the latter it need only
be remarked that persistent dreaming il
one of the NEST invariable symptoms Of
insanity. and as il is a psychological
fact that genius is near allied to mad.
ness men Of genius must be expected to
dream more than ordinary men.
With regard to the dreams of health,
they are the result of an imperfect state
of consciousness or an imperfect state
OF sleep. according as we look at it. It
is obvious that the mind of the clever
man. that is constantly occupied With
many schemes and thoughts, is more
liable to be awake when his body is
asleep than that Of the dullard. whose
mind is often asleep when his body is
awake.
Thus the sleep of the plowboy has
become proyerbial on account of its I'M
disturbed nature In most cases a man
OF lively imagination and quick brains
is undoubtedly more liable to dream
than the dullard.
