Aliens Advocating Anarchy, Sabotage and Lawless-
 ness to Be Deported.
VIGOROUS ACTION
 IN THE NORTHWEST
'. V. ". Membership Not Itself Rea- son for ActiOn-I. w. w. Leader Explains Idea of Sabotage,
 Would Save For Selves.

Washington, March 2--A vigorons policy fer suppression of anarchists and all who advocate sabotage s,ld other YaWlessncss, was announced today by Secretary Wilson in orders to immigration officials in the north west to proceed immediately to al- rest aliens guilty of spreading such doctrine even tho they may not comt any overt act they will be detained and deported.
 The secretary's action was in ans wer to requests from employers and civic ftrganiZations of Seattle and other cities that the department un- dertalle the wholesale internment of I. W. w. who were blamed for in dustrial unrest. particularly in log sing camps. MT. Wilson held that membership in the I. w. W. was not itself cause for arrest or deporta tion, but that any alien who preached overthrow of the government by force, assassination, or who are in any other manner subject to deporta- tion under immigration laws should betaken into custody at once.
 The department stands ready to support the roundup of agitators by supplying funds to provide additional quaters, if the Seattle station rroves inadequate for interning them
 Orders for suppression of radical propa ganda are regarded as the final step in the governments determin- ation to put stop to extremists who seek to interfere with prosecution of the war. Citizens of tho United States who preach anarchy will be handled by the department of justice.

BIG CROWD AT
Iin ,E ccAAUTAU0UA

The first session of the Chautauqua
opened Saturday evening and the peo-
pie enjoyed fine concert from the
University band under the able direc-
torship of Prof. Wilcox. This was fol-
lowed by very clever memory build
ing contest by David NJ. Roth, Of New
York. Mr.. Roth demonstrated most
e-nphatically how you could build up
your memory by the proper methods
and his work was exceptionally clever
and interesting. By the way, Mr..
Roth is brother-in- of our towns
man, Mr.. Herman Stern.
On Sunday there was a record
crowd in attendance for the first Sun
day. The band gave another concert
after which DR.. Mars, who had escap-
ed from the Germans after being a
prisorc r. two or three years, gave
his experiences in escaping from the
Huns which was somewhat thrilling
in spots, you may rest assured. The
doctor did not mince his words any
and if he had his way about it we fear
that very few Huns would be left
alive very long. His Story was lis
tened to with much interest. Mrs
Knute Froysaa, Mrs. w. T. Craswel
and Prof. J. P. Meyer nicely entertain
ed the audience with several selec.
TONS In the evening the University
Band gave another concert and was
followed by Mrs. Demarchus, who
gave an interesting talk on English
Cathedrals.
The programs from this on except.
ing Sunday, will close with moving

FOURTH LIBERTY LOAN
BOND SALE OPENS SAT-
URDAY, SEPTEMBER 20

The government has announced that
the minimum sum to be raised in the
Fourth Liberty Loan bond issue, the
sale of which starts Saturday, Sept.
%, is six billion dollars, one-third
more than the issue of last spring.
Every man has been assigned what
he is supposed to take. He has been
notified to call and sign up for his al
lotments. Sherman Strong is chair
man of the bond sale for this section
of Stearns county. Chairman I.adner
of Stearns county hopes to put the
county over the top in ten hours. 1t
is up to every Individual in this di-
vision to call at the Commercial club
rooms in Sank Centre Saturday and
sign up for the amount assigned to
him.
The government is not in mood to
tolerate Stacking on this proposition
as it has in the past. The slackers
are known and they must get in line
with the patriotic citizens who have
been doing their full share from the
beginning, or suffer the consequences
Don't find fault with the amount as
signed you. If you give your all your
contribution will be trifling as compar-
ed with what the flower of American
manhood is laying on humanity's altar
in France.

EUROPEAN WAR RELICS
INTEREST LARGE NUMBER
OF SAUK CENTRE FOLKS

In order to create interest in the
Fourth Liberty Loan Bond sale the
government has been sending train
of war relics into various Minnesota
towns during the past week. Satur-
day it was learned that the train
would pass through Sank Centre on
Tuesday morning, but that no arran-
gements had been made for a stop.
With characteristic energy Mayor Du
Beau got busy and Monday afternoon
about A o'clock received word that a
stop of one hour would be made in
this city Tuesday morning, from to
o'clock. Bills were hustled out and
the farmers telephones called into ser
vice. The result was that over 1900
people were given an opportunity to
take a hasty glance at large num-
Der of interesting relics picked up on
the battle fields of France. While the
time was all too short to properly d.
gest the many things to see, never
theless those who witnessed the ex-
hibition have better idea of the war
than they had before seeing the ex-
hibit. A navy band Of 80 pieces from
the Great Lakes training station were
travelling with the train and rendered
several much appreciated and snappy
selections.
The train was in charge of F. H.
Nutter of Minneapolis. From Sank
Centre the train went west to Glen
wood and then on to Morris. On
Monday the route was over the Great
Northern the last stop being made at
Osakis shortly before midnight.

and as soon as these can be added the
flag will be properly dedicated and will
be unfurled to the breezs, corner Of
Third and Main streets. The dedlca-
ton services will take place at a date
to be announced later.
Mrs. Linda Lloyd, president of the
Corps, called the gathering to order
and introduced Mrs. c. D. Wilcox who
offciated as mistress of ceremonies.
Comrade James Norris of Palmer
Post made a short talk in which he
compared the American army of 1861
and the present. Mrs. Norris read an
appropriate poem. Mrs. David Cteve-
land, patriotic instructor, very
graciously presented the flag contain
ing the 100 stars including three
gold stars to the city. Mayor A. ].

the city promising that it should be
properly cared for.

DIR FRITZ Won DER OSTEN-SACK.
EN- WILL SPEAK AT SAUK
CENTRE OCT. 1.
KNOWS GERMAN INTRIGUE
ADDRESS SHOULD COMPLETELY
FILL JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL
AUDITORIUM.

Arrangements have been made for
the appearance of DIR Fritz Won der
Osten- Saeken to speak at the junior
High School Auditorium, Sank Centre,
Tuesday evening, Oct. 1, at eight
o'clock.
DR.. Won der Osten-Sacken was born
and educated in Germany and lived
there most of his life He is we'll
versed with the situation in the Ger
man empire from the inside. Added
interest is gwen in his address for the
reason that the Osten-Sacken family
has been close to the German throne
for generations, and the fact that he
has a brother and cousin who are
prominent generals in the German
army. He has two sons who VOLUNTEERED
in the United States army, one of
whom is an officer.
DR.. Osten-Sacken is one of the
principal speakers of the America
First Association which is engaged in
propaganda work, and has held over
5000 patriotic meetings i'll Minnesota
during the past few months. The AM
erica First Association is the Mime
sofa representative Of the Commission
on Training Camp activities of the
War Department.
DR.. Osten-Sacken was the principal
speaker at the patriotic day demon
stration at the recent Todd county fair
held at Long Prairie. Those who
heard him state that he is unquestion-
ably the most virlie patriotic speaker
of the present time. His arraign-
ent of the House of the Kaiser and
the militarists of Germany is pitiless.
No admission fee will be charged and
the large auditorium of the school
should be packed for this address. 20
The Home School girls will furnish
music for the occasion as will also
the Sank Centre band.

Mr.. wye of the department spent Mon

be the economical manner in which to
handle the situation. Of course cut

should mean cheaper merchandise as
well as saving man-power.
