In MeInorian

On the evening of Easter Sunday
April Sth, 1917, the spirit of a
dear one took its flight to share in
a mansion not made with hands.
jamie Elizabeth Armstrong, wife of
Harvey Armstrong and daughter of
Martha and the late John Burner
Wilson.
After an illness of only eight
days, during which her condition
became more and more alarming,
it was decided to take her to K. D.
Hospital, Staunton, in the last
vain hope that an operation would
prolong her life. On arriving there
it was found that pneumonia had
developed and the end of useful
| life was but a few hours in coming.
Away from home, children and Il e
loving ministrations of friends, only
her husband being present to wit
ness the approach of the grim, re
lentless reaper.
Sister Armstrong, who had al
most completed her And year, was
most estimable woman, posses
sing lovely christian character
which was prominent at all times.
Patient, loving, kind, self-sacri-
ficing, faithful in all her duties and
undertaking, this wife and mother
is oh, so sadly missed in the home
where her vacant chair never can
be filled, where she leaves to mourn
their irreparable loss, seven chill
dren, the youngest of whom is less
than one year old, Raymond
Lucy, Mary, Ruth, Robert,
Nora and Woodrow. One daugh-
ter, Mrs. Lester Siron, is living in
Illinois.
Besides the husband, mother
and children she is survived by
five sisters: Mrs. Rhoda Hevener
and Mrs. Iona May Smith, High
town, Mis-. Mamie Propst, Nc
Dowell, Mrs. Mary Emma Arm
strong, Mt. Scion, and Mrs. Louie
Hoobler, of Illinois, and five broth
ers: Solomon Wilson, Mt. Scion,
Willie, Pinckney, Charlie and Jared
Morgan Wilson, all of Illinois.
Funeral services were held at
McKendree on TUESDAY, at II
o'clock by Rev. Allen assisted by
Rev. Beverage. A large concourse
of relatives and friends gathered to
pay last sad tribute of respect,
constituting one of the largest
funerals ever held at this place.
The remains were laid to rest in
the cemetery adjoining, by the side
of son and daughter who had pre-
ceded her to the better land.
at is not death to die,
To leave this weary road,
| And midst the brotherhood on high
To be at home with God"
"It is not death to close
The eye long dimmed by tears,
And wake, in glorious repose
To spend eternal years. J."
cit is not death to fling
; Aside this sinful dust,
And rise. on strong exulting wings
, To live among the just"
Jesus, thou Prince of life,
Thy chosen cannot die!
Like thee. they conquer in the
strife,
To reign with thee on high"

FLATHEAD TOWNS
Governor Stewart Urged to
Check Reign of Terror
That Is Coming.

Helena. March 12.-Industrial Work.
ers of the World, flocking in from
Idaho and Washington, are said to be
over running Flathead county towns
and business people and citizens gen.
orally. it is said, are forming indus
trial protective associations.
kilograms We're received by Cover
nor Stewart today, notifying him that
unless the movement is checked
promptly, there will be a reign of ter
ror and anarchy and arson and blood
shed will follow.
Flathead towns, Kalispell, White
fish, Libby and Eureka, have formed
protective associations of citizens, who
will arm themselves and be prepared
to give the officers every assistance
possible.
The l. w. W., who have given the
numbering camps of northern Michigan
and Minnesota as well as the camps
of Idaho much trouble and have been
driven out, are concentrating in Flat
head county believing that the time is
ripe to organize a strike among the
employees of the lumber companies of
that section. In one or two of the
smaller towns of the F1athead section
prompt action on the part of officers
and refusal by the citizens to feed the
invaders has caused them to move out,
but they are now concentrating in Eu-
reka and openly soliciting members
among the lumberiac&s of that section.
Governor Stewart, when asked to-
night regarding the matter, admitted
that he had received a number of COM
municatiCns but he had made no reply.

here today that a country wide strike
would result If IA satisfactory agree
ment is not reached at the conference
on the question of the eight hour work
day to be held here Thursday between
the railroad managers and representa-
tives of four brotherhoods of trainmen.
Reports have been sent to the rail-
road presidents ty agents of the man
ayers stating that plans had been laid
by the brOtherhoods to begin such a
strike Saturday night in the event their
demands are not met at the confer
ence. Inquiry at railroad headquarters
failed to bring out the source of the
reports although 1t was learned def
initely that such information had been
sent them. This information stated
that the brotherhood leaders consider
they have waited a reasonable time for
the supreme court decision on the Ad-
amson law and they are going to be-
gin hostilities In a few days" as one
railroad representative put 1t. The

Bagdad Prisoners.

On the fronts except in Mesopo-
tamia and Persia, where it is as
sumed that both the British and
Russians are still harrassing the
Turks, only minor operations have
been reported. AS yet full details
of the capture of BaGdad by the
British have not been made public
although announcement was made
in the British house of commons
that there was reason to believe
two-thirds of the Turkish artillery
had been captured by the British
or thrown into the Tigris and that
large numbers of prisoners and
quantities of materials of all kinds
were taken.
Again the Turks are reported by
Petrograd to have made a further
retreat in Persia. this time lcav-
ing position near Bisitun. 20
miles northeast of kermanshah.

Bisitun was occupied by the Rus

Note to All Washington En-
bassies Only Formal
Step to Be Taken.
NO HINT GIVEN AS
TO FIRST SAILING
Preparations for War Go
Forward, but President
Will Try to Keep Out.

Washington, March l2.--The United
States government today took the only
formal step that will precede the sail
ing for the war zone of American mer-
chant ships armed to resist attacks by
German submarines.
Notice to the world of the intention
to place an armed guard on merchant
men was given in a communication
sent by the state department to all en-
bassies and legations In Washington.
Officials continued to be reticent to-
day about the arming of ships and the
probable date the first would be ready
to sail. All such details are regarded
as military secrets.
Speculation continues as to the part
the United States may play If forced
into actual hostility by Germany. In
official quarters the opinion Is very
clear that President Wilson, for the
present at least, is contemplating no
more direct connection with the Euro
pean war than Is necessary to protect
Americn rights on the high seas. Prep
arations for any evcntuality are going
forward, but the president is known
still to cling to the hope that there
will be no actual clash between Amer
ica's armed merchantmen and German
submarines.
The president, who had been con-
! fined to his bed for several days by a
cold, was able today to discuss inter-
national questions with Secretary
Lansing

CHINESE SEN ATE
VOTES FOR BREAK

Peking, March 11.--The senate today
approved the severance of relations
with Germany by vote of 152 to 81.
1t is expected that the government
will take action to this end tomorrow
(Monday).
After the house had approved the
severance OF relations Saturday, the
German minister presented note to
the foreign office offering to negotiate
for the protection of Chinese lives and
property in the submarine zone. In
official circles it is believed the lega-
tion hoped through the note to post
pone the severance of diplomatic rela =
tions. 1t had no influence on the cab
