MITCHELL'S PROBLEM
l.. W. w. WANDERERS DEMAND
JAIL SENTENCES FOR
LAW VIOLATIONS.

Mitchell, July 20.-With Is of
their number jailed here for riding
on railroad trains without paying
fare, a misdemeanor created by the
last legislature in order to curb /.
w. w. movements, five Industrial
Workers of the World this morning
asked Sheriff Emery Owens to be
permitted to join the party behind
the bars, creating a situation that
may speedily become serious.
State Sheriff John G. Shanks has
been on the ground for the past two
days, but has refused to declare a
policy to be followed in dealing with
the transients. The number of In
dustrial Workers passing through is
increasing daily. but until the present
prisoners are disposed of no more ar
rests will be made. Railroad Off
Gals have refused to take a hand i'm
the matter on the ground that drastic
action would jeopardize their prop
erty and the lives of employees.
Should jury trials be demanded by
the prisoners the cost of prosecution
and the size Of the venire necessary
would be considerable. No threats
of violence to free the men i'm jail
have been reported to officials as
yet. Sheriff Shanks as head of the
state constabulary, is expected tC
map the curse TO be followed.

MONEY in WOOL
DAKOTA GROWERS GET OVER so
CENTS A POUND WOOL.

Pierre, July 20.-The Indians on
Cheyenne River reservation are find
ing that the investment in sheep
which was made for them last year
is a profitable one. This year they
shipped wool and hides from the herd
TO the value of S6.270. getting a
price of SO cents a pound tor their
wool. Along with the shipments
from the reservation Faith comes to
the front with a claim of shipment
of IL cars of wool from that station
so far this season, which were sold
at a price of about so cents a pound,
or a net return to the wool growers
of hat part of the state of $780, 900.
As one of the evidences of what
sheep handlers are making under
present prices, Martin Steinblock, OF
Meade county. a year ago paid SO a
head for a flock of 100 ewes. This
year he sheared them and sold the
wool for SO each, and then sold the
sheep themselves at $14.50 a head,
which was more than double what he
paid for them for their care for less
than a year.
