PROBING
CASES OF
SEDITION.
Col. M. A. Hildreth, District
Attorney, Working on Al
legged Anti-Americans.
STARTLING LETTER
Received by u. s. Marshal
s. J. Doyle Western
Part Of State Bad is
Report.

! This morning United States Marshal
,. ]. Doyle received a letter from one
or the mining towns in the western
| part of the state asking his aid toward
protection against strong Ger
| man sentiment in that part OF the
country. The letter asks that If the
United States marshal is not the one
to handle the situation for him to turn
1t over to the proper authority.
The letter was turned over to Col,
M. A. Hildreth, United States district
attorney. who stated this afternoon
that investigations are being made and
that he expects DEVELOPMENTS and ar
rests to follow. not only in the in
stance stated above. but in regard to
other instances. Colonel Hildreth
has received many letters from various
parts of the western and southwestern
parts of the state reporting movements
Of intimidation in order to prevent en-
listment in the army navy or national
guard. E2s
The lettef received by the U. S. mar
shall this morning not only told of
threats and Seditious statements made,
but gave names and expressed the
fear that in case Of a declaration of
war there would be overt acts commit
ted.
The letter from the mining town in
question stated that one of the most
American residents of the town
was one connected with the mines and
that they were especially fearful be-
cause Of the large amount of dynamite
that Is maintained at the mine
which might be used to disastrous eff
feet.
Colonel Hildreth says that the
statutes covering cases of this kind
are strong. but he looks for the pass
age of more drastic measures by the
coming special session Of congress
that will make 1t easier to reach per-
sons making seditious statements.
Section of the penal code passed in
1910 makes it necessary to prove
conspiracy to aid or assist or with
view to aiding or assisting an enemy
country and 1t Is believed that cases
Of intimidation and threatening pros
pective candidates for the army and
navy can be reached under this Sec
ton. "Of course we have to prove
conspiracy" said Colonel Hildreth in
speaking Of the matter.
Chief Deputy John Gammons. who
was recently at Bismarck said that
the loyal people of that town are
greatly aroused over the statements
that are being made by a pro- GermaN
element. Mr.. Gammons said that many
people waited on him at the hotel for
the purpose of finding out what can be
done.
All cases being reported are being.
investigated by United States District
Attorney Hildreth and by Attorney
General LANCER. who Is working in
conjunction with the government offi-
Gals and it Is expected that arrests
will be made in the near future.
It is known that there are many
letters in the hands of the district
attorney reporting cases in which per-
sons have gone to all lengths from
speaking slightingly of the United
States and making seditious state-
ments to threatening to kill prospec-7
tive recruits for the army and navy
should they enlist.

The Sad Story Of the Peanut
Editorial In Minneapolis Tribune.

The Justly celebrated peanut has suf-
fered a cruel rebuff at the hands Of
the North Dakota supreme court. The
sad details are that a Grand Forks
confectioner bought a concession to
sell roasted COOLERS in the grand
stand at the state fair; that the
crowds were so big he couldn't get
through the aisles; that he sued the
fair board for the resultant loss and
that in the states court Of last resort
he lost the decision.
The court held-and it seems rea-
sonable-that it was not up to the
board to keep people out of the gates
and to chase down the country roads
and turn the farmers back home be-
cause the peanut man might not have
room enough to get through the grand
stand aisles with his goods. Incident
ally, the court wondered If there
might be a vanishing point where a
crowd ceases to be peanut market
