Democrais Fight on Expansion Plans

WashIngton.-One wing of Democ- racy will make a fight on the expan- sion plans Of the administration In the next congress. In the House this movement will probably be led by Representative De Armond of Mis- souri. who has just sailed for the Philippines. It Is asserted that De Armond. who Is a candidate to sue ceed Representative Richardson as the leader of the House. has gone to the Philippines to gather the required information. AS he is accompanied by Representative Joy tMissouri) and Mercer tNebraska). both Republicans, the fight in the next House will be exciting. De Almonds purpose is evident. but it is possible that Joy and Mercer will be able to choCkmate him on the floor Of the House at the next session of con- gress.

Three Big Nils Will Fip, b: Affected Ii Compinci do not Yield Strike Will Extend Principal Fight Made on the Painters Mill

Pittsburgh From present indica- tl9ns. it locks probable that Pres ldcnt Shancr's strike order. issued to the Amlagamatcd Association mem bcrs tn the employ Of the American Steel Hoop Company and the Amcri- can Tin Plate Company. will be obey ed. and the great struggle between the Amalgamated Association and steel companies will be on in earnest. In the united mills of the three companies against which a strike has been de clared it Is predicted that not a wheel will turn. An effect will be made also to close down some of the non-union mills -f the city and cripple the rest. Tho Amalgamated people are very san gulne of success
 The strike was not of our own seeking" said President Shatfer. Tt was forced upon us. We were not con tending for wages. but for principle. for sclf-prcseryation. The tin and sheet people will not be able to turn q single wheel tomorrow. We have our forces thoroughly organized. and there will be some surprises In store. The strike order will be promptly obeyed by all our men"
 Developments indicate that Pitts burgh is going 10 be n pretty lively strike center The most interest at tachcs to the Painters mill on the south side. and to that Of Lindsay & McCutcheon in Allegheny. Both mills are controlled by the American Steel Hoop Company. and have hitherto been progressively non union. and much de- pended upon the action by the men in those plants. The employees Of both mills held open meetings. and both de- cIded to strike. These mills employed roo men. However, Jenks. manager Of the American Steel Hoop Company. said that both mills would resume as usual Fully 1000 men will be affect ed in this city by the Amalgamated strike Of these 2000 men are em- ploycd In the Shenango plant and HOO in the Greer plant of the American Tin Plate Company. and c"o at the steel plant of tho National Steel Company. The men Of the later min were not called out by President Shaffer. but notices were posted there stating that the plant will not be in operation.
 Not one wheel will be turned in either tho Greer or Shenango tin mills the largest plants Of the kind Tn the country. The men are ready for a long strike. as they have been preparing for this fight for months.

game finished it was pretty much all
one sided, the score being - to in
favor of Langdon. Third baseman Page

Last Saturday came the event that
the fans OF Langdon and surrounding
towns had been looking forward to for
days. The coming Of Wigs and his
Milton aggregation to play their first
League game with the home team. Up
to the sixth inning the score was 6 to 4
in favor OF the visitors, after that the
pitching of fast game the day before
began to SHOW with telling effect on the
provinces of Langdon's south paw,
Brenna IS shown by more runs being
piled up by Milton after that stage of the
game. Langdon batters hit the terrible
Wigs freely. Cameron getting couple
Of two baggers and Brenna one. Singles
were made by Conwell Tucker, Berg

eyes of those IN the grand stand We're
scarcely once turned away from the left
field, where Berg never failed in bring
ing down the high balls Of the Miltonians
field hits. Little Conwell behind the
bat also entertained the crowd with fine
mitt work as he caught impossible high
fouls and sent hot ones to the bases,
killing off the runner at critical times.
Langdon didn't win the game but showed
up that Wigs IS not the whole thing,
especially when up against an aggrega-
ton of ball players such as Langdon is
proud to put against anything in the
North Dakota league.

The line of the Langdon Telephone &
Exchange Co.. has been in operation
since last Saturday and the fifty phones
already placed have shown to our oitl-
zs''s what useful necessity and estab-
lished want in the homes and business
places of Langdon the telephone is bound
to become. Since the line opened this
week thirty new subscribers have asked
to have the service extended to their
places and there Is every indication of its
coming into general use within a year.
The company has nothing bnt Bell
phones and is able to give its subscribers
direct connection with the long distance
line. The alphabetically arranged list OF
patrons of the line shows that the '.hello''
is already placed where it brings nearly
all parts of the town within reach of one
another. Another important feature OF
Langdon's new acquisition is that the
same service is rendered in this city for q
lese sum than it would cost in either OF
the Twin Cities. Ifyou haven't phone

A. Hepburn stopped over in the city
his return from trip to the Twin Cities,
where he went to interview j. J. Hill
regarding the extending of the Lakota
line that is being built north this sum-
mer, on to the boundary.
1t will be remembered that the farm
ers of western Cavalier county and north
eastern Towner county have been adj
vocating this move all summer. At the
last meeting held a committee was
appointed to visit President Hill and
place the matter before him in the
strongest possible light, and money was
subscribed for this purpose. Mr.. Hep
burn went to St. Paul the latter part of
July and had interviews with President
Hill and his con, and is we'll pleased
with the result, though informed there
was no possibility of getting the road
this fall from the fact that it would be
impossible to secure the steel rails
necessary to build. Both Mr.. Fill and
bis son were satisfied with the evidence
that there was plenty of business to
justify the extention, and the promise
was made that it will be built next year
in time to handle the crop.
The present extension north of Lakota
will consist of about Is miles and it will
be continued about As miles farther next
year, giving the farmers in that section
of both counties e1cellent service in
every way. Mr.. Hepburn says that Max
Bass, the immigration agent of the Great
Northern, promised the new settlers
when he induced them to come from the
east that they would have new road as
soon as there was sufficient business to
warrant the building of one, and his
promise will be fulfilled the coming year
