at least Of the large dealers who have
in the past competed for contracts for
supplying Federal and District gov
ernments.
The experiment will be watched
closely by local coal dealers who do
not believe the Government Is going
to be able to obtain us coal supplies
as cheaply as officials believe and
who hint that salaries and other ex-
penditures will eat up the profit the
dealers have made in the past from
Government business. These profits,
they claim, were exceedingly small.
owing to competitive bids. The main
advantage the dealer had in obtain
ing these contrasts was that he got
his coal supplies for his private trade
at less money by buying in large
quantities and increased his profits
over those of small dealers thereby.
From the standpoint of the Wash
ington public the Governments new
plan will release much equipment OF
local coal yards. heretofore in use
for Government contracts, to taking
care of local needs.
Wages to be paid in Government
fuel yards will have a bearing on
the local coal situation. These are
yet to be determined. II the wages
are above those paid in private yards
it may make the employment OF labor
by local dealers difficult The hours
of labor will be shorter in the Gov
eminent yards, and the tendency will
be for employees in private yards to
seek places in the Government
yards, local dealers said today. This
question, however, Will be carefully
considered by Director Manning and

Sheridan County
N. P. L. Meetings

The big outstanding feature of the
fall campaign which has beer ar
'a'ged at the "a On. ana state offis.: of

the avalanche of meetings with
which it is expected to cover the
county between October 18th and
November 4th, the day before cleo
ton.
Mr.. William Clavier, splendid
educational talker, will be the main
speaker. Mr.. Clavier comes very
highly recommended from the state
Office. The candidates will be along
and some of them will make brief
speeches. Every. possible means is
being taken to give proper publicity
to the meetings and members of the
League are urged to talk about the
meetings with their neighbors, post
up bills sent to them and in every
way possible add to the publicity
work done from the state office.
If the instructions from the head
office are carried out every meeting
will be huge success, and victory
will follow their efforts.
Following is the list of the meet
ings to be held in Sheridan county at
the places and on the dates designat-
ed, and remember, if conditions per-
init, it is planned to have a gigantic

HELP BRING our

LIBERTY BOND PURCHASES

DAN COUNTY YOUTHS In THE
TRENCHES.

AS you walk along the streets of
any town in Sheridan county any ev-
ening You probably notice the abb
sence of many faces which year
ago were quite familiar. Many OF
them-bright, ambitious, smiling
young chaps-have quit the pursuits
of civil life to don the armor of the
soldier to help fight the battle for
liberty and humanity. A number of
them have already crossed the Allan
tic and some of them are, no doubt,
at this very moment in the front-line
trenches or helping dive the Teuton
forces back. Their smiles, we hope,
have not disappeared but grim de-
termination has steeled their hearts
to do their bit to wipe the last YES
tige of "kultur" and Prussian mill
tarism from the face of the earth.
You and I want to bring these boys
every one of them safely back
home. We want them back again as
a part of our daily life, even if we
cannot boast of a service flag in the
window, denoting a vacant chair at
the table.
But before we can expect to see
them again we must see that they are
properly fed, clothed and furnished
with the guns and ammunition to &C
complsh the task they have set out
to do. Sheridan county's quota for
the fourth Liberty loan is $3.50, 100000,
or $500 500 bonds. If you = will
buy but two of these 500 bonds the
money will place 5000 machine gun
life cartridges in the hands of some
young American gunner-very like a

ridges will not only help to lessen the

BOYS CALLED FOR 14TH
AND 18TH DISCHARGED

The boys who were called to en-
train here on the 14th and 18th of
this month, this week, some to be
sent to Vancouver Barracks, Wash,
and others to the University OF
Montana at Missoula, have been dis
charged by the local board acting
upon orders issued to them, probably
for the reason that the Spanish IN
fluenza epidemic is raging so badly
that it was thought advisable that
the boys remain at home.
According to information, the local
board have no instructions as to
when these two quotas will be re-
called to entrain.

Mr.. F. II. Carpenter, care F. H. Car
penter Lumber Company, Mime
apolis, MINI.
Dear Sir: | am attaching herewith a
continuation of my two kilograms
sent you on the 2Sth inst. 4.
Mr.. Roosevelt will speak in Mime
apolis on the afternoon and evening
of Monday, October 7. It is impera-
tive that the Hennepin county COM
mlttee get together at once and ar
range things in such a fashion SO
that his reception at Minneapolis will
be the most enthusiastic ever accord
ed. Get in touch with Secretary Lind
quist and have him advise the press
throughout the state, and to invite
all parties interested to meet Mr..
Roosevelt on Monday afternoon. We
should have a big reception.
We must bear the expense of this
trip, but the only expense involved is
that from Minneapolis to New York.
Mr.. Roosevelt will be accompanied
by one servant only, and you should
arrange to get drawing room for
him and lower berth for the SER
want; leaving Minneapolis on one of
the late trains, preferably on the C.
M. & ST. P. because the Northwest
ern does not carry a diner.
Mr.. Roosevelt would much prefer
to talk on the Liberty loan, and this
should be arranged if possible. How
ever, if the date for his appearance
is too late, or if for any other reason
he can not talk on the loan, he will
put up the loyalty" question, es-
pecially with reference to the activi-
ties of the Nonpartisan league. Get
as much data together as you can on
the Nonpartisan league, especially
Photographic copy of Mr.. Gilbert's
letter to Mr.. Haywood. In his
