Marshall H. Jewel. one of the best
known publishers in the Northwest and
for 30 years editor of the Bismarck
Tribune. died at his home in Bismarck
on February 10. following a long illness,
caused by enlargement of the heart. Mr..
Jewell was not quite IS years of age
and was recognized every where as an
able writer and hard worker. It~is said
that overwork and worry were largely
responsible for his death. Probably no
mar in North Dakota knew the history
of the state better than M. H. Jewell
and no one had more to do with the
shaping of affairs of the state. He was
a man Of exceptional ability and his
place will be hard to fill.

GOOD REPORT. APPRECIATED

The Hettinger County Herald, pub
lished by Connolly Bros. at New Eng
land, has the following kindly words
to say of our Dry Farming Congress
report. published February 4:
The Dickinson PRESS of February 4th
had q write-up of the DIV Farming
Congress, held in that city, that beats
any convention report We have ever
read. Every part of the work was
covered 50 thoroughly that the careful
reader could easily imagine himself
present at all of the meetings. To the
farmers of western North Dakota, who
were unable to attend the congress, the
PRESS report is worth. q full years
subscription.
1t is possible that many readers do
not realize the great amount Of hard
work and the actual amount of cash out
lay required in preparing an accurate
report like the one Given in the PRESS
of the first Dry Farming Congress held
in North Dakota.
As IN illustration of what is meant
by accuracy, it is only necessary to say
that several papers in the state gave
what was purported to be DR.. Taylor's
address in Dickinson, but which in
reality ~as not the address given by
him here. but one that he had given in
some other city in some other state.
They were not at all alike and we know
that the one taken from original notes
of a PRESS correspondent was by far
the best. It was what DR.. Taylor said
in Dickinson and the others are what
some one thought he would say. This
merely shows that it is pretty hard to
improve on the original when dealing
with the addresses of men like Dr..
Taylor.

 Bridgeport and New Haven. The arrests of the two men were l effected at noon today by Detective Fox. He found the painter, whom he already knew, in Fairfield avenue l near the railroad station. The other man he arrested working as a labOrer in the West End
 The father of the Lofthouse girl has done important detective work on his own account in looking for his girl, for it was principally through his eff forts that the identity of the men who figured in his daughters experi- ences came to the knowledge of the authorities.
 May Lofthouse has been employed in the American Graphophone CO, for several months. She and the Mitchell wards of years--WithOuts the knoWl edge of her father she quit her, enn- ployment at the Graphophone Co.'S plant two weeks ago Monday. The end of the first week she had no money to show as the result of her subterfuge she deceived her parents into the belief that the pay was held back through misunderstanding. She had introduced the Mitchell girl to her father as May Daley and her father at the request of the daughter, gave the Mitchell girl under the name of Daley note requesting that the
 factory pay the bearer the Lofthouse girls wages. Through this the girls deceived Lofthouse to believing the
 girl was still employed.
 Last Saturday the girl bought a hat, donned her best clothes and with
 the Mitchell girl. it is alleged by pre-
 arrangement with the two men under arrest, fled to New Haven. The fath-
 CT started searehing next day, and
 through his knO wledge of his daugh- ters girl companions, he learned they

 rested today.
 He made several trips to New Ha- ven, and on Wednesday located the hotel at which they had stopped, and found they had left few hours be- fore. He returned Wednesday even ing. and while he slept. after mid night, his daughter stole into the house and retired.
 Yesterday he gained partial ac- count of her experiences from the girl. Today he brought her to po- lice headquarters, where Prosecuting Attorney Delaney taking a complete that she had told but a small part of her experience to her parent. He ordered the girl held as an incor- rigible, and the two men arrested forthwith.
 Just where the Mitchell girl is con- jectural, but from the information the police have been able to gather from the prisoners they say they believe a New Haven merchant is responsible for her continued absence from the city.
 Prosecutor Delaney has not yet decided what charges he will prefer against the two. He says he believes
 he can prefer any or all of the fol- lowing: Indecent assault, criminal assault, and placing a female in an immoral resort. Any of the three carries a states prison sentence.

SOCIALISTS SEIZE CENTRAL
 LABOR UNION

"The Socialists have injected so much politics into the local Machin- ists' union that it will be sometime before it is settled whether it is to be a labor union or the wing of a political party.
 "The Central. Labor union is a con- ference body. Any action it takes is not binding upon the locals represent ed in it. It's main purpose is to create public opinion.
 '.It is the opinion of labor union men in general that the real fight to determine whether the Socialists shall remain in control of the Central La- bor union will come when the various locals elect their delegates to the Gen. tral Labor union. The Socialists stole a march during the past year and many members of the party became delegates to the Central body"
 Jasper McLevy. president of the Cen tral Labor union is a member of the Slate & Tile Roofers union-is one of the foremost members of the Socialist party in this city and has been candidate for office on its tickets for many years.
 "Yes. it is true that the Socialist party has captured the Central Labor Union." said Timothy A. Flanagan yesterday. who was defeated by Jas per McLevy for reelection as presi- dent of the Central Labor Union on Wednesday night, Tt was q fair gan, 'tand one of the largest meetings in the history of the organization.

 s.The Socialists have been anxious in the past to get hold of the Central Labor Union. to secure it's endorse ment of legislation. Socialists now have kind of a monopoly of the sources of endorsement of labor leg isltaion in the State.
 "I have believed. with many other men in the trades union movement, that the labor movement should be kept out of party politics. The So- cialist party used to say that there would be no need of labor unions if They have changed now and are try ing to control the unions from the in side. They may be able to do it in all of the organizations-if they get the votes.
 There are now three distinct bod ies in the State trying to get labor legislation through the Assembly. It looks as though they are going to pull and haul against each other. They may hurt the common cause. have claimed that the Connecticut Fedora tion of Labor is the proper mouth piece of the labor unions of the State. But ther are several organizations. in cluding that of the Socialists. who are against the officers of the Connecticut Federation of Labor. and particularly against it's president. Charles J. Don ahue. have always claimed that the place to fight Donal1ue Is in the con- vention of the Connecticut Federation of Labor and not on the outside. Donahue gets the majority of the votes in the convention every time it meets. The sentiment against him does not seem to count then.

The Wheeling is expected to arrive at. Guantanamo, late today and navy officers expected to hear of a wireless message from her at any hour.

 The wireless station near Guantan- amo has been directed to endeayor to speak" the Wheeling at the earliest possible moment
