Vile, Cal. He confessed. the officials
said, that he had set fire last Septem-
Der to a lumber mill in Lassen county
and at the time of his arrest was on
his way back to the plant which he
was contemplating igniting again.
Hagerman said, according to the
fire prevention bureau officials, that
it was a common understanding that
the alleged plots to destroy cattle and
buildings were supported by German
money. Hagerman, the officials as
serted, professed sympathy for the
Germans. He came to the United
States from Germany in 1910, they
said.
1t is understood that Hagerman,

STATE DEMOCRATS
THEY WILL NOT ENDORSE CAN.
DIDATES FOR SPRING
PRIMARIES.

Mitchell, Feb. 23.-South Dakota
democrats will endorse no candidates
for the spring primary, according to
a decision tacitly reached in the party
conference held here Wednesday aft
ernoon and evening in the city hall.
Nearly 100 party men from all parts
of the state were in Mitchell. Had
the weather been more favorable and
rail schedules regular, the attendance
would probably have been double
that number.
Resolutions were made bestowing
the highest credit upon President
Wilson, and the Americans who we're
manipulating war conditions to en-
rich themselves were deprecated.
Recommendations were made that
the democratic state convention be
held in July. Declarations were
made for public ownership and pub
lie utilities and the reclamation of
coal, oil and mineral lands, and aid
to the farmer by publicly owned and
operated transportation lines. 1t was
also resolved that a uniform system
of school books be adopted.
South Dakota representatives at
Washington, Senator Johnson and
Congressman Candy were compli-
mented for their official actions.

SOLDIERS FUNERAL
FRED NJ. UNGER, OF PARKSTON,
VICTIM OF THE TUSCANIA.

Parkston, Feb. 23.-Funeral serv-
ices for Private Fred M. Unger. OF
the Twentieth engineers, and former
ly Of this city, who was lost on the
transport Tuscania, and was buried
on the coast of Scotland, were held
here at the Catholic church. A sol
emn requiem mass was read by Rev.
Joseph Unger, of Claire City, a broth
er of the lost soldier, assisted by Rev.
Father Dahlmanns and Rev. Father
Harrington, of the parish. The large
church edifice was crowded with rel
atives and friends. Practically every
business house was closed during the
ceremonies.
The mayor, councilmen and local
exemption board attended in a body,
also the children and teachers of the
schools. Rev. Father Dahlmanns de-
livered an eloquent and patriotic SER
mon on the loyalty and patriotism of
the Catholic population of this coun-
try to our flag, and that all bigotry
and SANDER should be entirely abol-
ished and forgotten at this time, sta
tistics showing that there were more
Catholics serving in the army and
navy than of any other one faith.
The dead soldiers wife and five
children reside here.
