Ammons yesterday issued the follow

and life and property in great danger
our first duty is to restore law and
order
We are not able to determine salts
factorily the controversy between the
operators and the strikers, but the
state has undoubted right to require
that both parties to this conflict shall
act within the law. Until this condi-
tion can be attained there can be no
just settlement.
The authorities of tho state have but
one desirc-to maintain order. Not
step will be taken except to gain that
end. but every force within the power
OF the state viii be brought to bear to
accomplish this result. The troops are
in the field to restore law and order.
and FOR no other purpose. They are
not interested in the outcome OF the
strike. They did not go as on an
excursion OF pleasure. but in response
come from all parts of the state: some
were clerks and young professional
and business men and represent the
best families in the state
1t must be remembered that for
nearly six months these men were
In the field. Up to the time that
left for Washington not a single per-
son was killed by them because OF the
strike, and only two altogrther-onc
by accident, and one a fugitive from
justice who was resisting arrest
There need be no further hloodshed

and return to their homes, II they
refuse to do this. every available
power Of the state will be brought to
bear to compel them to do so. and
further appeals. II necessary, will he

and national, shall be secured to bring
