SALVATION ARMY
PLANS DINNER
WILL UNDERTAKE TO GIVE
CHRISTMAS CHEER TO 5000.
Brigadier Jenkins Issues a letter
"Keep the Pot Boiling Again Seen
on the Streets-Dinner Chiefly for
Homeless Men to Be Given at Head
quarters Christmas Day.

Soliciting contributions for the
seventh annual Christmas dinner to be
provided by the Salvation Army for
the poor Of Minneapolis, Brigadier W.
f. Jenkins writes:
Poverty is particularly felt at this fes-
tive season, when nearly all Of us unite
In the exchange OF tokens of rem embrance
and when nearly every household provides
exceptional and adequate means for cele-
bratlng the cheerful anniversary. Yet a
large number Of our fellow beings are in
such circumstances that they can give no
such pledge, can make no such prepare
tion Unless we help, their Christmas will
be no different from any other day on
which they repeat the everlasting con-
hict with poverty; tho perhaps, indeed the
contrast, on Christmas, of their surround
ings with our own will make the conflict
appear keener and more bitter than be-
fore.
sent by the army to all persons pre-
sumed to be In sympathy with the OBJ
ject of the plan described. To enlist
the aid of the general public the tripod
pots of the army, KEEP THE POT
BOILING" have appeared upon the
streets. Special letters mailed to
produce merchants, wholesale grocers,
quirements for the Christmas dinner
are thus estimated: Beef, 1000
pounds; chicken 1000 pounds; bread,
1000 pounds; apples, 20 barrels;
candy (1nixed), 500 pounds. ...
Last year the Minneapolis army
! gave Christmas comfort to 1850 per-
sons. This year. altho the amount of
local poverty remains much the same,
Christmas dinner will be made ready
for 5000 persons. Half a thousand
guests. chiefly homeless men, will be
invited to the table dinner" to be
served at 1 o'clock, Christmas after
noon, in the Salvation Army rooms
214-216 First avenue S. The remain
| ing $500 dinners will be distributed
In baskets to be called for by the rep
resentatives of families whose needs
| have been investigated.
| Each basket will contain, if con.
| tributions permit, four pounds of po-
| tatoes, two loaves of bread. one pack
age of cereal. one-half pound Of but.
| pound Of sugar, one quart of beans
one can of corn or peas, one can OF
tomatoes with apples and celery
Toys and articles Of clothing will be
added if possible. The card mailed
to notify each family that it may send
some one for a basket will be accom-
panied by two street car tickets, 1,0OC
such tickets each good for a ride, hav.
| ing been furnished free to the army
by the Twin City Rapid Transit com.
! pany.
A list of, needy families has beer
compiled by Brigadier Jenkins with
the aid Of the associated charities, the
city poor department. the police de.
partment and the mail carriers.
But whatever may be left from the
Christmas contributions will aid the
Saliva ton Army in caring for its reg
ular burden Of winter work among the
i poor. The cases looked after are
often Of the saddest kind, but are such
as to warrant the armys aid.

HE ADVISES HIS CHIPPEWA
CLIENTS TO SUBMIT TO ANY
KIND OF INJUSTICE WITHOUT
RESISTANCE.

.-.--.- ,.s.s4-ft -, q
Gus Beaulieu appears iii the role OF
pacifier in the last issue Of his White
Earth TomahaWk,. and says edltorl-
ally:
In connection with the report that there
is some danger of an uprising among the
Chippewas, we will now say to the Indians
in order to appease the secretary's wrath
for our sake YOU should allow any kind OF
injustice to be heaped upon you without
making any protest or lawful resistance
AS far as we are concerned we will follow
the policy whichSwe outlined in our INTRO
ductory. to call everything by its right
name no matter where and whom it hits.
If we cannot dictate the policy of oul
own paper we are ready to quit the field
but we will not do this until the courts
say that we have no right to publish q
newspaper without conforming with the
views Of a government official who is an
tagonistic to us.
One of the ''hostiles'' in the print
shop probably set up the editorial, and
made Mr.. Beaulieu tell the Indians
not to make lawful resistance when
he had written UNLAWFUL.

GRADUATE NURSES MEET
Discuss the Question of Forming an In
dependent Bureau.

Graduate nurses of the city met yester-
day afternoon to discuss the advisability
of opening an independent nurses bureau
The present bureau, which is under the
management of the physicians. admits
nongraduate nurses to it's privileges, and
committee from the nurses association
some time ago presented a. petition asking
that only graduates be listed by the bu-
reau and that the association be repre-
scented OH the examining board. The last
clause was indorsed but the first was re-
ferred to the association and the reply
was read yesterday and did not meet with
the approval of the nurses.
The present nurses association is taxed
$4S for the running expenses of the bu-
reau and library, and many of the mem
bers think an Independent organization
could be maintained with a membership
fee of S.. The physicians consider that
the privileges Of the library and the in
dorsement Of the county association should
be worth retaining by the nurses About
twenty-five out of the thirty present We're
in favor of an independent bureau.

that this crime was devised and exc
cuted by the inner circle OF this organ

"This statement Is made only after
careful investigation of the facts,
which show conclusively that these
men met their death thru a scheme
so cunningly devised and carefully ex-
ecuted as to tax the ingenuity OF the
most experienced criminal.
"Of late the district has been filing
up with the class Of men who openly
boast Of what they propose to do. Not
single circumstance surrounding this
crime is compatible with the theory of
accident, and with any other theory
than that OF premeditated murder"
The. district executive committee Of
the Western Federation OF Miners
characterized the explosion as a Ia
inevitable accident regretted by all"
and adds: "But prejudiced individuals
who rarely know anything what they
talk about, have already passed jndg-
ment and denounce 1t as a cold blood
ed murder Experience teaches, how
ever, that the people are not above
making capital out of any public mis-
fortune"

APPEALS FoR STATE TROOPS.
Utah Sheriff Asks Protection for Min
ing Districts of His County.

Salt Lake City. Nov. 23.-Sheriff
Wilcox Of Carbon county has appealed
to Governor Wells to call out the state
troops to protect the coal mine districts
OF his county which are included in the
recent strike order Issued by the Uni
ted Mine Workers of America.
In his telegram to the governor, Sher-
if Wilcox states that the civil forces
at his command are powerless to cope,
with the lawlessness and protect life
and property and maintain law and
order.
Sheriff Wilcox says he has already
arrested several parties who were dis
charging firearms for the purpose OF
intimidating men who wished to work
and reports that at Scofeld men have
been assaulted and threatened with
death if they persisted In working
against the strike agitators.
BYigadier General Cannon, commands
ing the state national guard, left yes
terday to investigate the conditions In
the disturbed district, and will report
to the governor as to the necessity for
calling out the troops.
Governor Wells has received report
from State Coal Mine Inspector
Thomas indicating that many more
miners are on a strike than has pre-
vtously been reported.
The main point Of difference between
the miners and their employers Is rec
