Of Its work is especially significant.
Mr.. Everson explained he was

thought the league was good. On
arriving in Bismarck, he says he was
presented with a card Of admission to
the nightly caucuses held by the
league members. None but league
members. armed with such admission

cept that Townley. president Of the
league, usually was present, and
members Were given Instructions on
how to vote on each bill.
[ The, members were first provided
with q card giving the title Of the

written thereon, opposite each
Dill, SO there would be no mistake.
This was too open, Everson said, the
members having to fill out the cards
from time to time, and it was aban-
doned. Then q plan was devised
Whereby bills read by a red-headed

his gun loaded with five rounds, and

used the butt Of his gun to smash the
