Governor S. r. Van SAINT has been
keeping close track of doings among

has interviewed leading men among
the strikers, has talked with prom

and has secured the views Of the
county and city officials on the
general situation and on what has
taken place. And in doing all this.
the man has not givenaaway his lden-

him believing him to be a newspaper

tered separately al a newspaper,
though if the whole of that days

nor reason in this regulation. which is
