 Finally, the rule has been made that representation in future Repub- iican conventions shall be based on the vote for Republican territorial candidates at the last preceding cleo tion This rule has been approved by the Republican national committee. Accordingly, representation in the territorial convention of 1918 will be based on the vote for Schofield next Tuesday. Adv.

LEAD SEARCHERs ON
 A STRENUOUS CHASE

Deputy Marshal Isaac Evans and Hugo Johnson, a station employe at Mile 12 had a strenuous hike Satur- day tracking down David Person, an other station worker who had been temporarily deranged. Person is in ,custody here and may recover with out being sent outside.
 Person went to work for the Ber- son station gang at Mile 12 last week and on Friday morning after few re- marks about being watched by some one who wanted to send him to the asylum he disappeared.
 Johnson and another man tracked him over the hills to Glacier river and the water being deep decided not to cross. Six inches of snow on the ground made his trail easy to follow.
 Marshal Evans was notified and started out Saturday morning accom- panied by Johnson. They went three miles over the hills to the point on the river where the tracks ended.  Two miles down the river they were able to make a crossing and found the tracks on the other side, where Per son had fOrded or swan the deep wa ter Then they trailed him over the low hills to Snow river, up the stream and back around a circle and then across Snow river down the slough which Person crossed and recrossed three times over to the river and across it again. Near Snow river bridge they found no further tracks so hiked back up to Mile 12.
 There they found Person, who had returned to camp in a dazed condi- tion and wet to the skin after his 30- hour hike. The station men had put him to bed while his clothes wee drying. Later he was brought to town.- Seward Post.

IMMENSE CROWD
 HEARS PRESIDENT
MADISON GARDEN IS PACKED
Cheering for Half Hour Greets the President When He Arose to Speak liberated Wall Street As Trying to Dominate Government.

NEW YORK, Nov. Swallowing the torchlight procession here last night the Tammanyites, headed by Charles Murphy, marched into Madt- son Square Garden, where President Wilson was scheduled to speak. The crowds were so enormous that the pc- lice detailed to maintain order were powerless to stem the rush for seats. Women and hundreds turned out to hear the President, and many tainted in the tremendous crush.
 The immense hall was packed to the doors and overfowed into the streets, and similar scenes were en- acted at Cooper Union hall. where the President also spoke. Augustus Thomas. the noted playwright and theatrical manager presided at the Madison Square meeting.
 Wm. F. McCombs, formerly chair man of the Democratic National com mittee was the first speaker, and was followed by Martin Glynn, ex-govern- or of New York. When Wilson rose to speak the cheering broke loose, and for thirty minutes the uproar was tremendous. In his three speeches delivered last night the President re- iterated his conception of the great issues which confronted theenation. He championed the cause of progress and pleaded for equal rights for all. He arraigned Wall Street as seeking to dominate rather than to cooper ate with the government. He pre- dicted he would be reelected. The President will deliver his last cam paign address at Shadow Lawn on Saturday.
