Walter Thomas Mills, the So

theater in Fargo Sunday evening.
Instead, he graced the steps of the
federal building, Roberts street and
First avenue. -
The change in meeting place was
the result of a, request. by the Fargo
War organization, directed, to the
of the Grand theater,
asking that the Socialist, because OF
the fact that he now is under arrest
for espionage, be barred from speak
ing in the building.
Upon the presentation Of the re-
quest, the hackers of Mills, the Nom
partisan league headquarters and
in Fargo, appealed TO
Governor Lynn j. Frazier for ac-
ton. The governor Immediately

A nd then telephoned to Sheriff

Insisting that protection be given
to Mills, the Socialist, and declar-
ing that there was danger of riot,
and ordering the police officials to
take the proper steps to protect the
speaker.
Mr.. Mccarthy, when informed by
Governor Frazier that there was a
possibility of riot should the Mills
meeting be held in the theater. ex-
ercised his rights as owner Of the
Grand property to protect the same

celled the contract for the use of the

Up to the time that Governor

in Fargo, limiting at the possibility
of riot, no intimation Of such pros
pective disturbance had been had lo-
cally.
