St. Paul, Dec. 13.-The general
strike in the Twin Cities Is on. It
was called at 10 o'clock this morn
ing, and labor leaders claim 10000
men are out. Hundreds failed to re-
port at all this morning. A few min
utes before 10 o'clock, other workers
commenced to swarm the business
district streets as they left their
work. The exodus was orderly. The
temperature is 20 below zero, and
the men, after quitting, went to their
homes. '%f"
An investigation Of crash be-
tween cars in the loop has been
started. Injuries to passengers from
flying glass were inconsequental.
The distribution of food is hard
hit. Milk and bread drivers are out.
For the past three days large stores
have been laid in. ~
All machinists, except those work
ing in railroad shops, are out. Labor
Leader Greenville says shopmen not
quitting at 10 o'clock will quit be-
fore the day Is over. This may mean
that the strike will spread to other
northwestern cities.

Home From Russia

Chicago, Dec. 13.-"The Bolshe-
wiki are trying to poison and weaken
the military strength of the United
States by German propaganda sim

America is not worrying.
"Germany is careful not to pro-

game is to keep Americans tranquil
while the poison of the German
peace propaganda is being poured in
to them by Germans in the United

NO FURL0UGHS FOR
NATIONAL ARMY men

Washington, Dec. 13.-Men of the
National Army will not be given
Christmas furloughs unless they live
within trolley distance of their can
tonments, the war department has
decided.
Secretary Baker in an announce
ment assigned the harmful effect a
general leave would have on camp
discipline and the heavy burden 1t
would throw on the railroads as rea-
sons for the departments action. 5,s4z Gs4z
This war department order would
seem to act as an absolute bar to
any Bemidji and Minnesota men re-
turning from Camp Dodge to their
homes for the Christmas holidays. 1t
had been understood that liberality
would be shown in the granting of
holiday furloughs, and many Bemidji
homes have been preparing to well
come their soldier lads.
