The writer of popular tree book
once stated that the white pine of our
northeastern States was destined to

yet the nature and habits of the tree
and the short-sightcdncss Of the peo-
pie make the statement more than a
mere suspicion,
Not great many years ago within

United States Marshal Perry
Swears In ESQ Deputies.

Washington, Feb. BY direction
of the President today Acting Secre-
tary Oliver today ordered company
of infantry from Fort Gibbon, Alas-
ka, to Fairbanks in that territory, u
preserve order during the mining
strike in that section. This action was
taken upon representations from the
United States court in Alaska 10 lie
attorney general, that the presence OIL
federal troops was needed.
Attorney General Bonapartc inform
ed the President and by his lnstruc-
ton afterwards consulted with Acting
Secretary Oliver, who, through Cen
eral Bell, chief of staff. forwarded the
necessary orders for the movement OF
troops to the military commander at
Fort Gibbon.
Telegrams from Fairbanks to the at
torncy general state that open air
mass meetings are being held by the
striking miners and that threats of
violence have been made. The marshal
has been directed by the attorney gen.
eral to use all the force at his COM
mand to arrest law breakers and to
prevent intimidation.
the military is expected 10 give 'hc
marshal moral support and also to
take action should the disorder prove
too great for any force he may be
able to secure. The striking miners
have picketed the trail between Valdez
and Fairbanks. Most of the newly ar
rived laborers are Russians.
The distance from Fost Gibbon to
Fairbanks is 155 miles and the troops
will be- carried by slcdS over route
which is said to be a very good one.
If there is urgent necessity for the
presence Of the soldiers at Fairbanks
they can get there in four or five days,
but under ordinary conditions the trip
takes six or seven days. Fairbanks Is

a population of 1000 or 5000
Persons in Washington familiar with
the conditions existing at Fairbanks
say the trouble is the outcome of
strike by the miners a year or more
ago for higher wages and shorter
hours These demands the operators
have resisted in their determination to
operate their mines independently of
the Western Federation of Miners.
Their attitude may lead to trouble, it
Is feared.
