FIELDER TO PLAN
FOR LEGISLATURE
Governor-elect Will Confer With
SoIons in Jersey City
Next Friday.
Especial to the Newark sta-.l

JERHEY CITY. Dec 2g.--Goverisors
elect Fielder has issued a request u
the eleven Democratic Senator's,
Speaker-to-be Beekman. of the House
OF Assembly, Assemblyman Joseph
Branegan, the chosen leader of tho
majority. and some others to meet
with him In this city next Friday
afternoon, TO discuss plans for action
at the soming session of the LeRis5
lature.
While 1t is not definitely known
what specific matters will be dis-
cussed, the impression Is that the ina
coming governor and the lawmakers
will In all probability reach an UNDER
standing as the course to be pursued
In regard to important legislation
The governor-lect says that he has
nothing In mind, at this time, that
could furnish subjects for early dis
cussion, but as the lawmakers had
expressed a desire to confer With
him, the proposition was more than.
agreeable to him. (
That proper steps will be taken TT
enact new laws, or remedy existing
statutes, so that Democratic party
platforms may be lived up to is con
coded, but drastic departures from
established systems that have proved
satisfactory will be considered with
exceeding care. II Is the belief of Mr..
Fielder that his views, as they will
be presented In his inaugural mes-s
sage, will meet with the favor of both
senators and assemblymen. In fact.
he Is not In the least appreheneive
on that score.

BIG RAPIDS, Mich, Dec 29.-John
B. Densmore, solicitor OF the govern
ment's department of labor, and
George "a Nichols, special prosecu
tor in the copper mine strike district,
conferred with Governor Ferris at his
home here this morning concerning
the strike situation and the deporta-
ton of Charles II. Meyer. president
of the Western Miners Federation.
Mr.. Densmore had made arrange
ments to leave for Calumet at 9;A6
this forenoon.
I'm still of the opinion that there
is no necessity for the Federal au-
thorities to take action in this az
fair" said the governor this morning
There is a grand jury now in ses-
sion at Houghton. Meyer or anybody
else can go before that body and get
Justice. 1t is strictly a State matter
and Michigan can handle it."
After the conference had concluded
Governor Ferris said that Solicitor
Densmore had explained that he did
no come to Michigan to begin a fed
eral Investigation into the strike con-
ditions. e"F1e made 1t plain" said the
Governor, that he came here merely
on a conciliatory mission, and Of
course I have no objection TO any eff
forts in that direction. All we ask
is that we be allowed to attend to our
own legal affairs. When we do not
do that 1t is time for the federal au-
thorities to take the AFFAIRS out OF our
hands. Mr.. Densmore seemed very
hopeful OF accomplishing something
by Offering conoiliatory suggestions,
but I am not so sure about such re-
suits at this time"
Mr.. Densmore left for Calumet I'M
mediately after the conference. He
carried with him a letter of introduce
ton to George A. Nichols, special
prosecutor in the strike district.
Nichols was to have appeared at the
conference this morning, but missed
his train at Grand Rapids.
