An OpprobriOus Name.

Bismarck, North Dakota, is in a
state of intense agitation. For some
time there has been a movement on
foot to change the name of the town.
Recently the movement was acceler-
ated by some ardent citizen who,
during the night, obliterated the name
on the railroad station with a smear
of yellow paint and set up a sign near
by, reading: 'To hell with this block
head hun What did he ever do for
u.s."
Buildings all around town are now
plastered with signs demanding that
the name of the city be Changed to
something decent"
In view of the large German popu-
lation in and about Bismarck, this
situation is significant. The name
will very likely be changed, following
the presidents of various Bismarcks,
Berlins and other towns of German
nomenclature around the country.
1t is part of the natural and inevi-
table reaction against everything Teu-
tonic, caused by the crimes, perfidies
and stupidities of ~present-day Ger
many. 1t is another proof that for
the great majority of Germans in this
country there is no more Fatherland
there is only America Aberdeen

Nee arthy-D boyle.

John Mccarthy and Elizabeth
Doyle were united in marriage Tues
day morning at the Catholic church
Rev. Joseph Conrath performing the
ceremony, says the Rawlins Republican
of last week. The bride was attended
by Miss Margaret Doyle and best man
was John Doyle, a brother of the bride.
Following the ceremony at the
church a very elaborate wedding break
fast was served at the home of Mr..
and Mrs. Dan Driscoll where the
happy couple were entertained by a
number of jolly good friends and rel
atives. They will make their future
home in Rawlins where they have a
host of friends.
Both bride and groom are well known
in Rawlins and Saratoga, the bride
having resided in Saratoga for a few
years before moving to Rawlins. Mr..
Mccarthy has been in the county for
about six years and during the past
three has been engaged as a guard at
the state p~enitentiary where he is ex-
ceedingly popular with everyone.

Baldwin Goes to Yellowstone.

Superintendent o. N. Baldwin of the
Federal fish hatchery left on Sunday
for Yellowstone Lake, in the National
Park, where he will spend a week or
more in gathering a large quantity of
trout spawn of the black-spotted va
riety for propagation at the local plant.
He will also make a thorough investi-
CATION of the governments plant on
Yellowstone Lake, in compliance with
orders received from the fisheries de-
partment last Friday, and it is likely
that this hatchery will also be placed
under his Jurisdiction mex year.
The hatchery at Yellowstone Lake is
N of large proportions and on account
Of the great numbers of fish available
at spawning time, immense quantities
of the spawn are gathered at that point
each season for shipment to other
hatcheries throughout the country. The
working season is short, however, on

TAKES
CONTROL OF LABOR
Ed. p. Taylor Appointed State Direc-
tor for Wyoming, With Head
quarters in Cheyenne.

With the recent establishment of
the United States Employment Service,
Of which Mr.. Ed. p. Taylor is State
Director for Wyoming, the govern
ment has undertaken one of the most
gigantic tasks since the selective draft
law went into effect, namely, that of
centralizing the recruiting and sup
plying of unskilled workers of all kinds
of war production. An equal dis
tribution of labor and the right man
for the right job is what the Employ
ment Service stands for. President
Wilson stands firmly back of the war
labor program, having in a recent state
ment placed the power of recruiting
all unskilled workers in the hands of
the Federal Employment System ex-
clusively. While this is a tremendous
task and one which will tax the
strength and energy of the army at
home, 1t will undoubtedly end private
competition and stabilize conditions
in this country.
Director Taylor has already estab-
lished two federal offices in Wyoming,
N at Sheridan and the other at Chey-
enne, and expects by the first of Aug
ust to locate offices at Lowell, Casper
ant Rock Springs. Through these
offices 1t is anticipated that the labor
difficulties will be successfully dealt
with through an W distribution to
those parts of the state where the de-
mands are greatest.
After August LIST the employer who
is engaged in war business will be re-
quired to recruit common labor
through the United States Employment
Service. While this restriction against
private recruiting for the present ap-
plies only to unskilled labor, as soon as
possible it will be extended to include
skilled labor, and eventually no employ
er may be permitted to employ men I'M
less the latter have United States En-
ployment Service cards.
The disorganization of the labor sup
ply, which has become a serious men
ace to the country at this critical
period, is Largely due t o the wholesale
labor Stealing" and "poaching."
California, for instance, instead of uti-
LIKING its home labor, imports men
from as far east as Buffalo. New
York, on the other hand will go as
far west as the Mississippi for I'M
skilled labor which, with a proper dis
tribution point, should be obtained
equally well with less time and ex-
pense at home. In this manner labor
is on the move from one place to an
other, c0ngesting the railways and
losing both time and money. 1t is
with the idea of meeting and solving
these problems that the government
has taken the situation in hand.

high altitude.
Mr.. Baldwin last Friday received the
following telegram from DR.. 81. M.
Smith, chief of the fisheries depart
ment at Washington:
90. N. Baldwin, Supt. Federal
Hatchery, Saratoga, Wyo.
Proceed at once to Lake Hotel,
Yellowstone Park, for eggs. Notify
superintendent date you will arrive
Gardiner, Mont. Remain in Park at
least one week and investigate field
thoroughly, with view of directing
work there next year.
(Signed) "a. NJ. Smith"
This does not necessarily meal that
MI. Baldwin is to be transferred from
this point, but that he will likely be
in charge of both plants after this year,
with a competent assistant at each
place. He would likely spend the larg-
part of his time in the Park, how
ever, during the months of June, July
and August, which is the busy time at
that point, and be located here during
the balance of the year.
The fact that Mr.. Baldwin is chosen
for this work, when there are hatch
cries and fish culturists galore through
out Montana in the neighborhood of the
Park, is added proof of the contention
Of his many friends in this valley, that
he is an exceptionally competent and
able man in this line of work.

Converting Waste into
A Useful Commodity.

The Douglas Chamber of Commerce
realizing the enormous waste that ex-
sists in the cities, back lots, vacant lots,
back yards, etc, of the state of such
material as scrap iron, steel, copper
zinl, lad, tinfoil, rubber, rags, rope,
etc, and his applies to the farms,
ranches and oil fields, in the shape of
abandoned and discarded machinery,
hose, rubber tires, lead pipe, copper
wire. copper utensils and old rope, ev-
cry scrap of which is needed by the
Government to properly carry on the
war, supplying the armies of our own
countries as well as our Allies, with
material made from these things, and
it has been suggested that if we could
get h boys and girls, as well as the
adult citizens of the State to assemble
this material at the railway stations,
where a central buyer could reach
them on a certain date, accept it,
weigh 1t and pay for it, payment being
made therefor in War Savings Stamps,
it would materially increase the sale
of W. s. s.. in the State, thus ac-
complishing additional help to the
Nation.
After taking the matter up with
Governor Frank l.. Houx, and with
Senator w. G. Irvine, State Chairman
of the W. S. s.. Committee, we find
both of these gentlemen very much in
favor of the plan, and they have CON
sented to lend the Douglas Chamber
of Commerce their cooperation in car
rying out this plan.

engagements with Donald McPhail of
Saratoga for the purchase of a number

The balance are to be delivered during
the early part of October.
Mr.. McPhaii has alwaws been a great
fancier of fast horses and has owned
a fine string, but now, with both his
boys away, ne finds the care of the
animals somewhat of a hardship and
he d9eided to dispose of all but a few
of his old favorites. Mr.. Mcpherson
will keep a number in training at
Bags, while the balance will be taken
to his big ranch on Sand Creek.

Nurse Reserve and Train Them
selves for Active Service.

young women to join the United States
Student Nurse Reserve and hold them
selves in readiness to train for service

nurses enrolled for the full training
course of from two to three years. Ev-
cry young woman who enrolls in the
Student Nurse Reserve is releasing a
nurse for service ut the front and swell
ing the home army which must be re-
lied upon to act AS our second line of
hospital defense.
The call is for women between the
ages of 10 and 30. Intelligent, respon-
sible women of good education and
sound health are wanted-the pick of
the country. Women may enroll i'll any
one of three ways. as follows:
To hold themselves in readiness I'M
til April 1, 1919, to accept assignments
TO nurses training schools.
To become candidates for the army
nursing school recently established by
authority of the war department, or
TO hold themselves in readiness I'M
til April l, 1919, to accept assignments
to either "A civilian training school or
the army nursing school. Those who
so enroll will be called where the first
need arises. The government hopes u
majority will enroll for both.

12O DEATH TOLL
IN TRAIN WRECK:
90 BODIES FOUND
District Attorney Declares the
Crash Due to ReckleSSneSS
of Green" Motorman

New York, Nov. 2.-Ninety-eight
bodies had been removed early to-
day from what is known as the
Malbone Street tunnel" on the
Brighton Beach line of the Brooklyn
l Rapid Transit Company where a five
car train running at high speed jump
ed the track on a curve and struck
the side wall with sue terrific force
that the first car was demolished and
the others "buckled" until they were
damned against the roof of the tun-
mel. The train, which carried nearly
900 passengers. was in charge of a
green" motorman.
Rescue workers declared they be-
lieved more bodies were buried under
the wreckage and hat the death list
of men, women and children might
reach 100. Probably twice that many
were injured, many of them seriously.
District Attorney Lewis, of Kings
county, declared the accident was
due to recklessness on the part of
the motorman employed as a train
dispatcher and who had been pressed
into service because of the strike
which went into effect after the COM
pany had refused to reinstate 20 dis
charged union employees.
THE motorman is gone,' Mr..
Lewis said. The claim adjusting
department appears to have kidnap-
ped him.
Police Commissioner Enright echo
ed the assertion of Mr.. Lewis. THE
accident appears to have been the
result of a green motorman running
his train at an excessive rate of
speed. The police now are search
ing for this man."
Mr.. Lewis said warrants would be
issued for the arrest of all officials
of the corporation who could be held
responsible for the disaster. An in
vestigation of the wreck is in pro-
gress at the offices of the Public
