AMERICANS GROSS OVER

SAN ANTONIO, March 1O.-A detachment of United States cavalry has actually begun the invasion of Mexico They crossed the border in pursuit of Villa and his force and have already fought three running fights with greatly superior forces of lIecans until the latter made stand in force and the Americans withdrew. One American corporal was killed. The MeMcans abandoned large quantities of loot taken at Columbus It is estimated that they number fifteen hundred thousand of that force remained at the border it is known while the rest crossed and footed Columbus It evidently deiber- ate plan of Villa to force American intervention but it is believed that Caranza will grant the request of Lansing to permit the crossing of the border by American troops Immediately after the news reached Washington of the raid on Columbus Lansing wired Carranza for permis- sion to send U S. troops across the line to aid him in run hing down Villa The Washington authorities also at the same time received word that the Americans had not wait ed for permission from the government and had crossed in pursuit of the bandits The cavalymen now all believed to be in home territory again.

THE RAINIER
 BUFFET CLOSED

Deputy Marshal Ike Evans received instructions from Marshal Brenneman today to close the Rainier Buffet which is conducted by Messrs. Me Phail and Mckenzie. The reason is not known but it is assumed that it has something to do with the secur- ing of the license by one man and his selling it to the two gentlemen nam ed. The following is the cable from Brenneman to Evans:
 VALDEZ, March 9.-YOu are in- structed to notify manager of saloon operating under Mcdonald license he must close at once. Every day he operates after receiving notice will be considered separate Offense and he will be prosecuted.

ALEX GAGOFF
 HANGED TODAY
MAN WHO MURDERED SECTION GANG AT WHITEHORSE
 SUFFERS PENALTY.

WHITEHORSE, r. T., March 10.- Alex GagOf, the Russian who mur- dered four members of a section crew here on September 30, was hanged this morning in the WhitehOrse jail at seven o'clock. The condemned man slept soundly last night, arose at six this morning and ate a hearty break fast. With unfaltering steps he asceuded the gallows and when asked if he had anything to say he exclaim- ed mo" through an interpreter. At that time the moose was around his neck and as the word passed his lips the trap was sprung and he was launched into eternity. Death was de clared to have been instantaneous and his pulse had ceased to beat four minutes after the drop. During the pinioning and for the whole hour be- tween the time of his getting up and the springing of the trap he remained very quiet and bore himself with con- fidence.
 An attempt had been made to prove him crazy but the examination by the doctors resulted in proving that he was perfectly sane. The crime for which he was hanged was the shoot ing of all but one man of the section crew which worked near this town. The men shot were Pat Kinslow, the

VERDUN FIGHT UNCHANGED

PARIS, March 1O.-The official announcement was made this morning that the fighting around Verdun con-
 nues along the same lines and that the situation remains unchanged It is admitted that the Germans are cOntnu- ing their assaults with the same energy and vgor but strong denial is made of the story coming from German sources that Fort Vaux has been taken This fort still in our possession the war office declares On the east off Verdun the Germans are pressing their attacks Art lery fire around the semcirce of the Verdun lines
 nued last night but was not quite terrible that off the preceding night The great anxiety here arises from the question to whether the enemy or we will first run out of big gun ammunition The supply of the Ger mans still seems inexhausbe but their fire has been sol great that it is believed the shells must give out some time.

Primaries Take
 Place Tomorrow
Republicans Will Vote From One
 O'Clock to Six For Delegates.

The Republican primaries for Sew ard will take place tomorrow, the polls to be open at Pioneer Hall from 1 to p. m. The judges of election are Rev Mir. Cook and Messrs. Reed and Willie and eight delegates will be elected to represent Seward at the Territorial convention which will be held here on April 19. The leading Republicans declare that the watch words of Seward Republicans are "Close Harmony. Alaska for Alas kans, and Square Deal for the Ter ritory." Probably for the purpose of maintaining close harmony a ticket of eight prominent members of the Re- publican Club has been got out so that local members of the party may have guidance in voting. The men on the ticket mentioned are: J. Allison Bruner, Matt Button, E. E. Chamber lain, J. J. Finnegan, W. P. Henry, L. L. James, Jr., J. M. Sloan and E. L. Whittemore. Voters must sign the roll of the club and may vote for anyone they wish but it is assumed that the ticket is meant as a chance for all to vote together and prove the harmony that exists.

 HOLD TWO PRIMARIES
Split in Pieces, and Rustgard Accuses ShackIeford of
 Wickersham Alliance.

JUNEAU, March 9-The Repubh- cans here seem to be hOpelessly split and two primaries yill be held to elect delegates to the Territorial con- vention at Seward unless some settle ment can be arrived at before the vot- ing takes place. John Rustgard, formerly district attorney, it is alleg- ed, charges ShacklefOrd with having formed an alliance with Wickersham to steam roller the Republican party in Alaska in favor of the present dele gate. Twenty delegates are to be elected from this place and if the two primaries are held the chances are that forty delegates will be elect ed and the Seward Convention will nave on its hands the job of choosing between the two. Robert c. Hurley
 holding the proxy of Charles Wells for Juneau, called a primary for the city hall from one to six and M. J. OConnor of Douglas, as the nearest Republican committeeman, called primary in a Juneau store room for the same hours. Wells is ill in Seat tie.

 The twenty are composed of many who were formerly supporters of Wickersham and many were af- filiated with the Democrats m the past. Shacklefords name is not on the list but he declares that he want ed to exercise the right of a Republi- can to make challenges and to see that the proper delegation is seated at Seward. He accused O'Connor and Rustgard of trying to rule or ruin the Republican party and he claims that the call for the primaries per mitted all Republicans to participate in open primaries. Rustgard gets back, it is said, by declaring that Shackleford has gone over to Wick ersham to secure him the nomination.
 (Note: The above message con- firms the statement made in the Gate way long before any other paper in the Territory had caught on to what was happening beneath the surface in the Republican ranks Even lead ing Republicans doubted this paper but the whole thing is now coming to the surface. The Gateway said that a movement was afoot to get Wick ersham the Republican nomination and this is evidently being made clear now)

'GREATEsT DEMAND IN e
TWENTY-FIVE YEARS"
SAYS w: g. McCARTER

An Interview with w, G.. McCarter;
proprietor of the Duluth Business
University, brings these facts.
During the past twenty-five years
this school has been in existence, at
no time has the demand been greater
for it's graduates than it is at present.
At no time has the initial salary paid
these graduates been as good. If
young people had to 60 about a thou
sand miles away from home, and
pay an exorbitant rate for the train
ing they can get at this institution,
more Of them probably would avail
themselves OF such opportunities. Few
indeed appreciate the real worth Of
this institution. When compared with
other schools Of its kind in the coun-
try, we can say there cannot be found
one whose work for thoroughness and
efficiency and serving the best in.
terests Of its pupils is on q par with
this institution. It's graduates hold
leading clerical positions in all parts
of the United States. At no time does
the supply equal the demand. Busi-
ness men appreciate the thoroughness
Of the schools preparation and in
stead Of advertising for clerical help
look directly to this institution for 1t.
AS there Is no limit to the opp ortuni-
ties offered in the business world for
those who have had the training that
this school gives. our young people
should find q way or make one Of
getting this essential preparation.

City Works Official Prevents
Walkout By Giving Reason
~ able Wage Advance. i:

If all "strike breakers were like
Commissioner Bert Farrell of Duluth
there would be better feeling between
capital and labor following, labor
troubles.
Last Saturday Thomas Miller, FORE
man Of the workmen at the Point of
Rocks; called up Commissioner Far
rell saying that twenty men in his
charge would strike unless their
wages were raised from 1925 to $3.50
day. Mr.. Farrell wasted no time,
but jumping into an automobile,
rushed to the scene of trouble. After
having a short talk with the men, Mr..
Farrell gave them the wage advance.
The demand of the men appears to
be no more than reasonable as I'M
skilled workers at the Head Of the
Lakes are now drawing $3.50 to So
a day. Mr.. Farrell, however, recog-
nizes that the city must pay the regu-
lar scale of wages to its employees.
'"These men are engaged in a dan
gerous work, and they deserve $3.50
a day." said Commissioner Farrell.
Local contractors are paying that
amount to their workmen and there
is no reason why the city should not
do the same. T will also get together
with Commissioner Merritt and see IL
we can't establish regular wage
scale for all our laborers."

GOOD field OPEN
FOR LABOR UNIONS
Flew Citizens Should Be Taken
Into Unions for Better
Protection.

Almost every month in Duluth
there are aliens admitted to citizen
ship in Duluth. A large percentage
of them are laborers, men who earn
their living with their hands. A
large number are unfamiliar with
conditions here, the language, the
customs and the industrial situation,
and become an easy prey to I'M
scrupulous employers. Those who
are victimized, not understanding the
opportunities that this country really
offers, become disappointed in Amer
lea and gain an improper conception
of Americanfsm. -,
The labor unions have a. worthy
field in these new citizens. If they
could be persuaded to become affilia-
ated with a union at the outset and
protected from INSCRIPTIONS en-
ployers, they would be better able to
care for their families and maintain
a better standard socially, physically,
morally and intellectually. How
much better would be their families
and the communities in which they
live? -:

COMMISSIONER FARRELL
HAS THE CORRECT VIEW

The other day a resolution came
before the city commission providing
for the payment of fifteen cents an
hour to water boys in the employ Of
the city.
Commissioner Farrell, in moving to
table the resolution. stated that no
person should be employed in his de-
partment at the rate of Is cents per
hour. II would rather not hire a boy
at all, than to hire him at Is cents an
hour" said he.
We need more commissioners who
have Bert Farrelps perspective. The
city should be model employer, and
evidently Commissioner Farrell be-
lieves just this.

Acting on the theory that "all
work and no play make Jacksa dull
boy" the Duluth traction employees
have arranged for series of base
ball games, which will be staged tri-
weekly throughout the summer. The
games will probably take place Mon
days, Wednesdays and Fridays, and
will include players from both Du-
1uth and Superior crews and Offices
Shop men, motormen and conductors
and office men will be included.
Play Began on July 4.
In so far as possible the games
will be played in the afternoon when
traffic is light so that more employees
may attend the games than would
be possible otherwise. Henry Morri-
son is manager Of the office team.
