When the history of our country Is
written more than mere men,
tion will be made of that little band
of pilgrims, the German Quakers,
the first German colony to land in
America. In 1862, William Penn
heard of this little settlement located
at Creufeld in Rhenish Prussia, and
paid them a visit for the purpose Of
inviting them to America.
A dozen families, comprising about
sixty souls, that had long felt the
hard hand of tyranny in the regula-
tion of their religious views, accepted
the Invitation and embarked for
America.
They named their village, German
town, which is now part of Phila-
delphia. Under the leadership OF
Daniel Franz Pastorius, a man Of
wide education and upright princi-
piles, they began the prosecution of
various Industries under govern
ment of their own that insured the
uninterrupted prosperity of the col
only.
: 1hey erected the first paper mill,
nodded the first type, and printed the
first Bible upon the American contin-
Ient, and sent back throughout all the
lfatherland,, the gospel of peace, pro-
'gress and good will.
In the year 1858, the German Quak-
ers demanded at the yearly meeting
of Friends of Philadelphia, of which
they were part that all members
OF that body, owning slaves should
grant their immediate emancipation
/ 1t is needless to say that the pros
perity of this little body of right
eous people was gossiped throughout
all the fatherland in contrast with
the settlers at jamestown and Massa-
'chusetts colony.
| 1t Is our purpose to dwell upon the
motive that prompted the colonists
to sail for America, and Judge them
by their fruits and in doing so we
may recognize that there is more her.
esy in history than there is in fic-
ton.
I Many thousands of Germans turned
toward America, and Pennsylvania
was their point of destination. This
colony of non-resistants opened their
hearts and of course their doors to
their countrymen.
/ The German Quakers were not an
integral body, as was the case ol

WANT j. S. TROOPS,
FEAR STATE GUARD
Miners Afraid Men Will Be
Deported When Soldiers
Change.

GOLDFIELD, New, Dec. H.-With
the definite knowledge that the Federal
troops stationed here are to be with
drawn December 30 by order Of Presi-
dent Roosevelt, the leaders Of the strik-
Ing miners are preparing to protest
against such action. They fear that
after the Federal troops have departed
from the region State troops Will take
their places.
The miners fear the possible arrival
Of State troops, associating such action
with anticipation Of considerable trou-
bic. The State troops. they say, will
precipitate riot and bloodshed by de-
porting striking miners from the Gold
field region\ as was the case in the
Couer d'Alene region.
President Roosevelt in ordering the
troops from GOldheld, informed Cover
nor Sparks that he stands ready to see
that the Constitutional duty Is carried
out, but he does not propose that Fed
eral soldiers shall do police duty which
should be provided by State Legisla-
ture.
While there has been quiet during the
stay Of the Federal troops IN Soldheld
any attempt TO rush State troops into
the mining region, the strike leaders
say, will surely result in great disorder.

Federal Troops Ordered
To Leave Goldfield Camp;
Presence Deemed Useless

The President has ordered that the
Federal troops be Withdrawn from
Goldheld. This action follows the en-
phafic stand taken by the President
in kilograms to Governor Sparks an
which he suggests TO that official tis1t
inasmuch as no extra session Of the
legislature has been convened, the
powers already invested In the peace
officers of the State must be adequate
to preserve order at GOldheld. The
President also informs the Nevada gov
ernor that II i5 not intended that Fed
eral troops shall do police duty for
a state.
In this telegram, dated December II
he requested that Governor Sparks show
further cause, If any. for keeping the
troops at Goldfeld. He called atten-
ton TO the fact that the troops have
been In GOldheid ten days and that no
trouble had occurred. as the Federal
officials had been led TO believe was
imminent when they were sent there.
Governor Sparks neglected to reply to
this telegram and yesterday the Presi-
dent sent another calling attention to
the fact that no reply had been re-
ceived giving reason why the trOops
should be longer detained at Goldheid
on the other hand, the President said,
the three representatives from the De-
partment OF Commerce and Labor had
reported that no disturbance was pend
ing which the State government could
not control and that furthermore no
session Of the Legislature was contern-
plated, indicating that the present peace
facilities Of the State are adequate.
