 Colonel Roosevelt's drastic" plan of action which MT. Bishop saws he makes public with the late Presi- dents permission and authority, in cluded his appointment of an inves- tlgatlng or arbitrary commission without regard to whether or not the operators asked for it or agreed to abide by it's decisions. He asked eX-Presldent Cleveland in case he were to appoint such commission, II he would accept place on it, and, accordinng to MT. Bishop, Mr. Cleveland replied favorably.
 ''This commission was only a part of the Presidents plan,' says MT. Bishop. "The investigation which it was to conduct would take time. In order that mining opera tions might be resumed as speedily as possible, the President consulted with Senator Quay, who was all- powerful in Pennsylvania politics, and was assured by him that when ever the President desired him to do so he would have the governor of the state notify the President that he could not keep order in the coal region and needed federal interfer- ence.
 "The President then informed Major General John M. Schofield that in case of federal interference he wished to send him to the coal regions with the regular army troops with instructions to act as receiver of the mines, take full charge, put down all violence, and disregard any orders from the op- orators. He asked the General if, in case the operators went to court and had writ served on him, would he do as was done under Lincoln, simply send the writ on to the Pres ident?? After little thought the General replied that he would. Roosevelt said: All right; 1 will send you"
 President Roosevelt, it was said, had all preparations made for starting the troops within half an hour after the request for federal aid was received The plan was not executed, Mr. Bishop says, "because at the last moment the operators changed their front and consented to the appointment of commission. Whether or not they got wind of the Presidents purpose has never been revealed, but some powerful influence was responsible for their sudden reversal"

STATE TO MEET
IN DICKINSON
State Grand Lodge of l. O. o. F.
and Rebekahs Will be
et. Enjoyable Affair

Dickinson, May 1S.-Dickinson Odd.
fellows are commencing preparations
for the entertainment of the State
Grande Lodge of Oddfellows and
Rebekahs, which convenes in the
Queen City on June 1st, End and Bird.
1t is estimated that close to a thou.
sand delegates will be in this city for
those three days.
Banquets and entertainments are
being arranged by the local lodge An
automobile trip to the Bad Lands will
be one of the features. and the Dick
inson boys are inventorying all the
autos in town to secure enough to car
ry all the visitors. Don't be selfish
with your car, but phone the commit
tee they can depend on you for a load.
The Dickinson lodge has engaged
the Municipal band to furnish music
for all three days. Thus the visit
ors will be assured real music, for we
contend there are few bands in the
state that can equal ours
Obtain Quarters
A committee has been appointed to
look out for accommodations for this
number of delegates, and probably 4
canvas will be made to secure rooms
in private homes if the attendance is
rs large as is now expected. II you
have any spare rooms you could let
FOR these days, it will be considered a
favor II you let any of the local Odd
fellow know of them soon. .
One of the main events Of the busi-
ness session will be the selection Of
the site for the state Oddfellows home
which is to be erected next year. Sew.
eral towns are making strong bid
for this home, but the Dickinson lodge
hope their bid will be the strongest
they're going to try and make it so,
anyway. The location calls for site
of sixty acres of land on which the
Grand Lodge will erect 100000
building, and the grounds will be i'm
proved to the highest point of eff
cheney. Dickinson Oddfellows have
their site all picked out and have an
option on the same, and it will take
an awful stiff fight to get the appro-
priation away from them. Every cit
izen of Dickinson should be back of
the boys in an effort to land this
home Printer Tingle. one of our
booster Oddfellows, is preparing
neat souvenir program for the con-
vention, which will contain full de-
tails of the three days "doings".

Leo Morris for the office of register
of deeds on the anti-Townley ticket.
Mr. Morris received the endorsement

overseas. He was a member of the
famous fifth division and saw heavy
fighting in several of the larger bat
ties. He was twice cited for bravery
during the Meuse-Argonne offensive.
Morris is very much opposed to the
leadership of the Nonpartisan league
and the socialistic portions of the
league program.
