U s. Court May be Appealed to to
DiSDerSe Strikers

st. Paul, Mimi, July 1S.-The next
step in the strike situation at South
st. Paul will probably be an injunction
to prevent the strikers from picketing
the Swift packing plant. The Cover
nor, it is said, informed the committee
Of merchants and jobbers who called
on him today that he could not act
until all other means had failed TO
disperse the strikers and intima ted
that an appeal to the courts had not
been tried.
1t is understood from reliable au-
thority that the United States court
will be appealed to for an order dis
persing the strikers. Sheriff Grisim
is reported to have told Governor
VanSant over a telephone that he was
unable to get deputies in South St.
Paul, because all the people were in
sympathy with the strikers. There
fore, he claims he is powerless to dis
perse the strong Gordon of pickets
about the Swift works.
Following this report to the Cover
nor, General NJ. d. Flower made a
tender OF 25 business men, whose in
deputies. but Sheriff Grisim is held to
have ignored the offer.
In order to demonstrate to Mayor
Lyttle that the strikers were seriously
interfering with business and would
not allow men free ingress into the
| works, Superintendent Burns. Of the
Swift plant, placed four men in charge
of Mayor Lyttle who started down the
line of pickets. He was unable to get
them through and confessed he was
powerleSs. No one is allowed to go
into the yards without a pass from
strike headquarters.

MORGAN CAN SWEAR ,EM.
Heider or Naturalization Papers Must
Not Refuse the Oath.

Supreme Court Justice Leyentritt de-
cided yesterday that State Superintendent
OF Elections Morgan has the power to COM
pei citizen to appear before him and to be
sworn In investigation into the status OF
naturalized voters, In accordance with
this decision, Justice Leventritt dismissed
the habeas corpus writ sued out In beha II
Of Antonio Colonesi who was arrested and
held for a misdemeanor In refusing to be
sworn. Colonesi's case was taken UP
actively by Tammany as test. In re-
handing the prisoner, Justice Leventritt
says:
The only question Is the REALTORS refusal
to be sworn. The Metropolitan Election law
makes 1t a misdemeanor 10 refuse to be sworn:
The REALTORS refusal was unaccompanied
BY any reason or request. The inference
that II was because he was denied the pres;,
not support the refusal, II ls perfectly clear
that II he was merely witness he was not
entitled to counsel. Conceding that. II the
proceeding was directed against him as prin-
cipal, that would make him party In the
ton by. no means free from doubt-it does
not satisfactorily appear on the state OF the
record before me that the relator was more
than a witness. He was charged with no
OF the. State. The required production Of
naturalization papers pursuant TO statute.
does not establish per Sc that the proceed ing
was against the holder thereof. Nothing
had developed at the time OF the refusal to be
sworn, nor is anything shown by the whole
OF Article l.. Section Of the State Constitu.
ton, shows an invasion OF guaranteed lights.

out to a large and enthusiastic audience
why Theodore Roosevelt should be elected.
He said in part
During the six years that | knew Judge
Parker in Albany ] never heard anything
against him. But the man never had any
experience to fit him for the office he is run
ning for. The political education Of Theodore
Roosevelt, on the other hand, began twenty
four years ago, and has been going on ever
since. Twenty years ago he was chairman
and nineteen years ago introduced him. not
far from here, as the candidate for Mayor.
He has since done honor to a variety Of politi-
cal offices.
i believe that on election night you will all
be surprised at the tremendous vote that
will have been cast for Roosevelt.
