SEES MENACE OF CIVIL
WAR IN COURT CLASH.
Wisconsin Congressman DeplOres
North Carolina Incident ns
National Peril

Chippewa Falls. Wis. Aug. Com
gresham Jenkins, chairman of the
house judiciary committee, last night
issued statement relative To the
North Carolina railroad rate imbrog-
lio. He says there never has been
any event since the civil war that calls
for so severe denunciation as the re-
cent senseless TRADE on behalf Of the
states against the nation. He adds
that It is humiliating that the matter
has been compromised, and that the
nation has to some extent surren-
dered.
THE civil war was the result nf
such agitation and we may have
earlier than we want another civil
war" he said. "To avert such a ca
lamity and preserve the nation. we
must conform to the law. obey the
law and have the law framed accord
ing to the framework provided by the
constitution"
Judge jenkins points out that the
supreme court of the United States
is made the final judge between the
state and the nation. He believes that
the executive of a state should keep
COOL maintain his dignity, and re-
member that he has to depend on the
judiciary of the country to save the
union.

At 1890 o'clock the convention ad-

nominations and wind up the business.
With the chief places on the state
ticket filled, the republican state con-
vention took a breathing spell late
tonight Not in the history of the
party in Oklahoma has there been
rendered such an ovation to one man
as that which greeted the announce
ment that Governor Frank Frantz was
nominated head of the ticket without
opposition. The delegates scrambled
to their chairs and cheer after cheer
from the seven thousand lusty throats
for several minutes baked the efforts
of Chairman Murphy to restore order.
The unexpected occurred when
the section in the platform denounc-
ing the democratic constitution was
eliminated and the party merely
pledged to secure amendments to the
document as to its alleged objection
able features. The platform endorses
the national and territorial admins
trations, denounces the democratic
party for its failure to apprehend the
needs of the people or to deal with
the problems of government.
The platform contains an antitrust
plank, favors the removal of restric-
tions from Indian lands and endorses
good roads, but remains silent on the
prohibition question.

Especial Dispatch to the Morning journal. I
Santa Fe, N. NJ, Aug. lit is now
expected that Governor George Curry
VIII arrive in Santa Fe next Thursday
when his inaughratiOn will take place.

that the governor will leave Washing
ton tomorrow morning. proceeding di-
rect to his home in Roswell where
after short time he will come to
Santa Fe The date of the Inaugural
tion has not been definitely fixed but
1t will probably be on the Sth.
Since the statements given out by
Governor Curry to the Associated
Press, following his interview with
the president at oyster Bay, the inter-
est in his arrival has grown even moro
intense and there seems to be even
more doubt than during the past week
as to what his attitude will be toward
certain men and methods. The gov.
ernors statement that there Is to be
a house cleaning in New Mexico and
that he is going to put aside cliques
and appoint men to office who will
be officers of the territory and for the
territory has not added much comfort
to the minds of some of the sleepless
ones here.

Duluth, Mimi, Aug 1.-One work.
ing day has passed since operations
began on the range following the ore
dock strike and no serious disor-
der has been reported. The Industrial
sky over the range is not cloudless,
however for the sullen attitude of the
followers of the Western Federation
of Miners indicates an attitude of des-
peration which was somewhat intensl-
fled by vitriolic address delivered
last night by Petriella, who advocated
the use Of guns to maintain what he
said was their right to sell their labor
where they could at the best advan-
tage.
In his address he gave the governor
"twenty-four hours in which to grant
the men Justice At the end of which
time he advised the men "to be ready
to strike the head off any man who
tries to crush you"
Whether at the end of twenty-four
hours anything will come of this is
awaited with anxiety, and the Off
clals are all prepared. All of the
special guards who have been in Du-
luth during the past few days were
rushed to the range to augment Sher-
iff Bates force of deputies.
The Steel corporation officials are
carrying out the wishes of Governor
Johnson in the manner in which they
are resuming operations. They are
opening the mines one at a time, and
gradually resuming work with as
many men as they can get to go to
work. All the old men will be given
an opportunity to return to work
without discrimination and with the
guaranty of being protected by the
forces at the sheriff's command.
Reports received here indicate that
mining operations were resumed
heavily in both Hibbing and Eveleth.
Babes Used to Ward Off Bullets.
Working men employed at the
Fayal mine today carried babies in
their arms when on their way to
work The infants were kept at the
mines all day by the men as source
of protection against any possible vio
lence 1t was apparently their belief
that the strikers or any one else
would not attempt to do any harm
while the children were in the dam
ger zone.
Although hundreds of men are go
ing to work daily. they cannot be
persuaded that the police protection
is adequate. They seem possessed Of
a feeling of impending disaster, and
this feeling has to great extent been
caught by the public. The city is ap-
parently on the verge of the worst
trouble of the strike, If rumor is to
be believed
