SCHOOL GIRLS FLEE
BURNING BUILDING
FIRE DESTROYS LUTHERAN La
DIES SEMINARY AT RED
WING, MINI.

Red Wing, Mimi, June S.-Nearly
200 girls of high school age fled in
their night clothing from the Luther
and ladies' seminary her at two
O'Clock this morning when fire
which broke out in a washroom on
the third floor spread rapidly and de-
stroyed the entire structure. The
building was located on a hill and
low water pressure handicapped the
firemen who were unable to save any
thing. All the girls lost their belong
ings and narrowly escaped with their
lives. The loss to the building is
estimated at more than quarter of
a million.
Today was commencement day at
the institution and scores of parents
from all parts of the country were
there. Most of the girls lost their
commencement outfits, turning a joy
Gus day into one of tragedy.

SUGAR RAT|ON|NC
TO Be STARTED
SPECIAL COMMITTEE WILL DIS.
TRIBUTE AND APPORTION
SUGAR WITHIN TWO
WEEKS

New York, June 8.-A joint dis
tribution committee to ration sugar
to confectioners throughout the coun-
try will be formed here within two
weeks, Armin w. Riley, special as
sistant to Attorney General Palmer,
announced today.
CharacteriZing the sugar situation
in the United States as more criti-
cal than at any time during the war,
Mr.. Riley said an effort would be
made to have bakers economize on its
use in pastries and to have hotels and
restaurants ration sugar to their
patrons.
Mr.. Riley's statement concerning
creation of a distribution committee
was made after a conference here
today with committee of six ap-
pointed by the Nation Confectioners
association at its recent convention
in Minneapolis. The new committee
will comprise representatives OF
sugar brokers, refiners, confection-
ers and soft drink and ice cream
manufacturers and will operate un-
der the direct supervision of the gov
ernment flying squadron of profiteer
hunters, DR.. Riley said.

DECISION PAvES
WAY FOR STATE
OPINION IN NORTH DAKOTA
CASE LEt;ALIZES PROPOSED
DEVELOPMENT OF $. ID.
WATERPOWER

Pierre, June S-The decision of
hot IN fact "a public purpose" but
the North Dakota cases is a matter
Of more than passing interest to
South Dakota as well.
The hackers of the various pro-
posed state development plans in this
state have all the time been wonder
ing where they would land in case
anyone sought to test action on the
ground that the proposed plans We're
note in fact " public purpose" but
now that the highest court of the
land has held that the North Dakota
statutes, which have state develop
ment by public funds as their basis,
are legitimately public purpose, the
way is cleared so far as South Dakota
is concerned.
Practically the one thing which
now stands as a brake TO immediate
development work is the uncertainty
as to price and supply of material and
labor. To avoid this the hydro-elec-
trio engineers and the hydro electric
commission are united on their
recommendation that active work be
delayed a oar until there can be
more settled conditions, and costs
can be estimated on a more nearly
definite basis than can be done under
present conditions.
The commission also recommends
that before definite action be taken
binding the people to an expenditure
of SIT, 100000 that the fact be sub
mitted to them for their approval.
They are the ones who will have
to pay, and the commission desires an
expression from them on a concrete
expenditure plan.
They endorsed the theory of hydro
electric development last year, and if
they are willing TO meet the expense.
the work will be pushed soon.

DEFEATED IN SCORE
OF g TO Z

After changing pitchers three
times during yesterdays state league
game Madison very nearly gave Aber-
deem second defeat. The latter led
off in the first inning by making
three scores 10 MadisOn's one. In the
second inning Aberdeen got three
more and the last one in the first
half of the fifth. Besides the scor-
ing made in the first the locals ran
in respectively one in the second,
two in the fifth, and one in the sixth
and one in the seventh, making the
final totals read--Aberdeen Z, Madi-
son 6. Fans all agreed that had the
home team been just a little more
cautious and coOl-headed they might
easily have defeated Z team whose
league standing ranks next above
Madison. Aberdcen's pitcher did
little tanning and made the faulty
record of hitting several batters The
several double-plays were effected at
a point in the game where they did
the best service.
Today the league circuit of games
is as follows: Aberdeen at Sioux

GOMPERS ON
RIGHT TO STRIKE


Washington, ID. c.. June S-"The
public has no rights which are super
iOr to the toiler's right to live and to
defend himself against oppression"
Samuel Gompers declared in his de-
ferred replies-to three question asked
him by Gov. Allen, of Kansas, in
their debate at New York May 28.
Gov. Allen asked whether the pub
lie had any rights in a strike affect
ing the production or distribution OF
the necessaries of life. thus threaten
ing the public peace and impairing
the public health" and if so how
would Mr.. Gompers protect those
rights. He also asked who controlled
the divine right of employees to
quit work
Strikes in which the public peace
have been threatened, Mr.. Gompers
said, usually have been strikes in
which the employers or public Off
cials influenced by employers have
created the breach of peace by the
use of thugs, armed guards and de-
tectives."
Labor" he continued, has no de.
sire TO cause Inconvenience to the
public, of which it is a part.
The right TO strike must be and
will be maintained, not only as a
measure of self defense and self ad-
vancement, but as a measure neces-
sary to public progress. The strike
has won its right TO post of honor
among the institutions of free civil
ization and the temporary inconveni-
ence it has caused is but small price
to .pay for the permanent benefits it
has brought"
AS to Governor Aliens question re-
garding who controlled the divine
right" to strike, Mr.. Gompers said
strikes were ordered by the major
ity vote of union memberships; they
are not ordered by officials at will

Chicago, June S.-The 1920 ma

VIII II. Hayes, chairman of the ma
tlonal committee called the delegates
to order shortly after 11:30 today
and work of selecting the G. O. p.
standard bearers began. At the open
ing of the great cOnclave it was gen
orally admitted that the fight was
free for all and none of the candi-
dates had succeeded in capturing a
commanding lead. The most import
ant events of the first session were
Temporary Chairman Lodge and ap-
pOintment of the big four commit
tees including committee on resolu-
ton which will decide upon the prin-
Ciples on which the republican candi-
dates will make their fight for cleo
ton.
Hayes opened the convention with
a brief speech. He said the repub-

open convention to accept from the
American people a mandate for the

LUMBER COMPANY
AGENT MISSING
q. f. WILD, SCOTLAND, ALLEGED
$1,000 SHORT IN ACCOUNTS

Scotland, June Sc. F. Wild, for
some time local agent of a lumber
company, who recently disappeared
from Scotland and who is alleged to
be short in his accounts with the lum-
Der company, has succeeded in reach
ing Canada. Whether or not efforts
will be made to, extradite him, is un-
known, but it is probable such steps
will be taken.
1t is alleged his shortage here is
in the neighborhood of $1,000. He
deserted his wife and children when
he fled, they still being in Scotland.
Fortunately, Mrs. Wild has means of
her own, so herself and children were
not left destitute.
The fugitive himself revealed his
whereabouts by sending a letter to
Scotland stating that he was in Can
ada and did not intend to return to
the United States and South Dakota.
In his dealings with local people
during his residence in Scotland,
Wild appeared to be a man of hon
tSty. II is StdItu tudl ldlluIe III
business before he came to Scotland
had resulted in some heavy judg-
ments being filed against him.
From some of the private letters
which he left behind him when he
fled ii appears that recently his old
creditors have been pressing him
strongly for payment, and it is be-
lieved that in his financial straits he
was driven to desperation and en-
bezzled the money belonging to the
lumber company.
When he left Scotland he an
nounced that he had been summoned
to the bedside of his father, but it
was soon Learned that this was false
and that he had used this statement
as a pretext for making his getaway.

SOUTH DAKOTA
SPECIAL SESSION
MANY MATTERS TO BE DISPOSED
OF BY THE LEGISLATURE

Pierre, June S.-Just what class
of legislation will be handled by, the
special session of the legislature, or
how long it will be in session. are
questions which are yet decidedly
open.
The different propositions which
are being urged would take up the
time of a Legislative body for 60 days
to properly dispose. But as the mem
bers are largely farmers. they are not
anxious TO stay away from their farm
work for long time at this season
of the year, and many of them have
expressed themselves of the opinion
that most of the proposed legislation
can wait the coming of regular ses-
sion six months later.
1t has been proposed that one of
the first acts of the special session
be the adoption of a resolution limit
ing the work of the session to emer-
gency matters only.
This, of course, >leaves the way
open for the session to decide for It.
self what is emergency legislation, -
and to pass up anything which they
would prefer should go over to the
regular session.
What many members declare as
emergency legislation is covered in
the matter of making some provision
for a soldiers bonus, or a vote on
the same at the next regular cleo
tion to take action toward procedure
in some manner on the state hydro
electric project; and to provide the
necessary funds to keep the state
business operating in consideration
of increased costs since the estimates
were made year and half ago, and
protecting school districts in in
creased interest rates on bonds, to
meet present requirements.
This list they say covers what is
necessary in their estimation outside
of a possible few small detail bills
to cover actual emergencies which
can be shown to exist. If they stand
by this program the session will not
likely last more than week.
But outside of this interested par
ties are urging action on many ques-
tions, among them state development
of oil, or tests in that direction; the
extension of the state park system to
include tracts in the eastern part of
the state; provision to allow the
town dweller some of the same prlVl-
leges provided for the farmer in get
ting started in a home of his own
state fund workmen's compensation
changes in the state mutual insur-
ance laws and in the present work
mems compensation law.
In fact, plans have been advanced
to open the door for general legls-
lation along all lines, which would
mean a session for several weeks, but
if the members are insistent on get
ting back to ether farms, they will
not give much consideration to any
legislation which they believe car
wait until the regular session next
January without hardship to anyone

Warrants Issued
for Slackers

Boston, June S.-Warrants for the
arrest of 5000 men listed as slackers
because of failure to reply to draft
missionaries have been issued by
the federal district court here. The
possibility that many of the men so
classified were actually in service
overseas or in this country when
missionaries were mailed them has
caused federal attorneys to arrange
for individual investigation in each
case before arrests are made.

Chicago, June S.-There was much
handshaking before Hayes called the
convention to order. Leaders of the
party mounted the platform to shake
hands with friends. The band kept
up it's music until Chairman Hayes
appeared on the platform. The Penn
sylvania delegation presented Hayes
with a gavel made from a rafter of
the Independence Hall at Philadel-
phia. Hayes raped for order and

called upon Rev. Charles Woodcock,

stood and sang the national anthem,

ing throughout the vast Coliseum.
Chairman Hayes announced that the
official photographs of the conVen-

photographers assistants throughout
the crowd told people how to look
and act there was a great rumble or
laughter. There was another roar OF
laughter when the big flashllght

settled back into their places. Chair
man Hayes then asked Secretary
