TROUT LAW CRIMINALS GET
64O DAY PRISON SENTENCE

The fourth day of trout. fishing
showed no record in decimating the
sparklers, for the weather has been
too unsettled, to bring out the null
titude of stream whippers. From
State Police headquarters, however
it is evident that a big number of
daring citizens took a chance at
breaking in before the season opened
and two men at Wilkes-Barre GER
tainly got a lesson. Trailed down
by a clever State cop they were nab
bed with the goods and taken to
court. 1t was learned this morning
that neither could pay his fine and
each was sentenced to $40 days in
prison, as the law calls for one day
for each dollar fine, and the total
fine was in each instance $640. The
State Police are determined to carry
out the law and have no sympathy
with law-breakers. The State has
been generous in stocking the
streams and so long as the police
department is supported as now.

FRAZIER TELLS
WHY HE'S IN ON
MINERS MUDDLE.
Governor Declares His Only Pur-
pose Was to Save People
From Suffering
WOULD OPERATE MINES
Gives Operators Final Assur-
ance of Intent to Continue
Producing Coal

"In the event that you gentlemen
are unable to get together, I shall, as
governor of this state, feel called upon
to exercise all the legal powers at
my command to keep the mines in
operation. I desire to state further
that it is not. my intention to interferc
in any way with the negotiations now
being conducted by the federal gov
ernment and that any agreement made
by you should not interfere with a
final settlement, and must terminate
Immediately upon the settlement eff
fected in the central bituminous field
said Governor Lynn J. Frazier in con.
Guiding long statement to the coal
operators issued at the close Of his
second conference with them, late
Thursday afternoon.
"Since the beginning Of negotiations,
started last week." says the governor,
various newspapers hostile to the adj.
ministration have published articles
under glaring headlines for the pur-
pose Of impugning my motives. In or.
der that there may be no misunder.
standing, desire to make this state
ment in writing.
SOMETHING HAD TO BE DONE
"At the time wired President
Lewis Of the United Mine Workers as
sociation, I realized that something
had to be done Immediately to prevent
a walkout of all organized miners in
North Dakota, and that great suffer
ing would Immediately ensue on dc
count Of shortage of coal through
out the state. My telegram resulted
in the withdrawal of the strike order
by District President brennan, which
order had gone out and which woul |
have been effective on November I,
and all the mines in the state operat-
cd by union labor would have been
shut down. In some instances where
the order cancelling the strike was
not received, there was a cessation of
operations.
II have had but one purpose in mind
in getting you gentlemen together
that being to keep the mines In oper,
alton in order that the people Of this
state should not suffer serious hard
ships, and which might result in loss
OF life. It has not been my purpose
to take any part in the controversy
between the miners and mine-owners.
AS governor Of the state of North
Dakota feel that I am performing
my duty to all the people Of the state
in handling this matter in this man
ner, and I would urge that both sides
to this controversy show spirit OF
cooperation in accomplishing the pur'
poses above stated"
The conferees adjourned at 4 80 un-
til $50 in the evening without report
ing progress.

arrangements were being made for

strike become "bitter end" fight.
In West Virginia miners continued
