GREAT STRIKE
 OF RAILWAY MEN
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1.)

 --~-- met the principal directors at several conferences the last of which, held today, was adjourned until November G.
 The railway companies. on their side, contend that the Amalgamated Society of Railway Servants by no means repre- sents the entire body of railway employees. and they claim that they have had a very satisfactory response to the circu- lars issued by the directors asking for information in regard to the men. who can be counted up to remain loyal to the companies, in the event of the declarati tion of a general strike.
 The railroads charge that the present agitation is due to the growth of social ism, and curiously enough while this idea was being voiced by Lord Claud Hamil- ton tonight in declaration that s, cialism was 'irreigious and immoral in its teachings" MT. Lloyd-George was averring in his address that socialism was "a bogey of today introduced to frighten the unwary'' and that there was no danger. but certain advantage in socialism, 'in-so much as it stirred the people to think"

The only twins in Columbias great
 family of forty-six states are North
 Dakota and South Dakota. They are eighteen years old today and are al-
 ready young empires in points of size and agricultural wealth. Their com bined area is greater than that of Japan or Norway, and almost as great
 as that of the Kingdom of Spain. A division of land among her people would allow one and one-half square miles
 to each inhabitant. When New Eng
 land was 120 years old and her people
 were already growing restive under British domination, when New York
 was already beginning to achieve
 greatness as a center of trade, and when the southern colonies were en- toying a. plantation life of joy and
 plenty vastly like that of old feudal days one lone white man was wan dering tn rough the lands now known
 as the Dakotas, burying leaden plates
 at certain places, and taking the ter
 ritory for his king in faraway France.
 This was Verendrye, the explorer. Tradition says that when Charles Pierre Le Sueur shipped his furs by l way of New Orleans to avoid Canadian
 taxes. he often led his hunters through | this territory and later furnished a 1 description of it to De L'Isle of France l who made the Dak kotas' first map.
 Here the Rec Indians had held full sway for many years until just at the time that Great Britain was learning
 lesson at Lexington and Bunker Hill, the Sioux swept over this land and the hunting grounds of the Rees were their own no more. In the last year
 of Washingtons administration a fort called Loiseps house was built on Cedar Island in the Missouri not far
 from the present site of Pierre. Here
 came French and Spanish traders and
 coureurs de bois, for this was part of Louisiana had been ceded back to France Louisiana had bee ceded back to France
 and purchased by the United States
 the Dakotas were on the line of Lewis and Clark's exploration, and in the
 winter of 1904 had the first American

Despite this brief contact with the United States the Dakotas were Eng fish for a number of years for the fur trade was large, the trappers sold through Canadian agents, and England had strong allies among the Indians In the war of 1872 a Scotch trader Robert Dickson, led out a company for the British army. his brother in law, Red Thunder, and twenty-two Sisse- ton braves being among his men. The south ern Sioux were held to American interests by a willy Spanish trader, Manuel Lisa who shipped his furs south ward. It was not until 1925, however, that English alliances with the Indians were permanently broken It was then that a United States com mission to treat with the Indians went up the Missouri guarded by Colonel Leayenworth and 300 soldiers, the company going in eight flat bottomed boats which were propelled by oars and sails, and by paddles operated by hand.

 Fur trading was great factor in the Dak otas of these early days. Across this territory John Jacob Astor and Walter Henry Price passed in their race for the control of the fur trade of Washington and Oregon, going by boat on the big rivers that cross the states. Astoria on the Columbia per petuates the name of the winner. The trading post of Joseph La Framboise built in 1877, was succeeded by Fort Tecumseh in 1922, and when this was rebuilt ten years later further down the river 1t was called Fort Pierre Chouteau for theA eAenterprising man who revolutionized the fur trade of that region by having special flat bot toned steamboats made for the shal- low water. When these boats opened mp new territory several distinguish ed travellers went into the little known lands. George Catlin. the artist, went to paint Indian types; Maximilian, Prince of Wied came over and studied the Indian there; and when John c. Fremont was commissioned to make a map of the country his coworker was pr. Joseph N. Nicollet, a French scient- ist. The missionary. ever close on the heels of the trader in new lands, reached the Dakotas nearly seventy years ago. The first recorded sermon

 When gold seekers turned from l everywhere in the east toward the Cal ifornia fields, one route lay along the valleys of the Platte. through coun- try of Indians whose temper had not vet been proved by the whites. So to protect this route the United States government bought Fort Pierre from the fur company in 1855 and set about making terms with the Indians. The Dakotas were until 1S49 without per manent settlers and their name was changed so frequently it would have been confusing had there been any one to care, for the parts of the states that lie east of the Missouri were in turn incorporated in the territories or | Michigan.
