Representative Lawrence Bjorgos OF
Grand Forks county. who Claims to be
independent OF both parties, although
on practically all important questions
except the speakership, his, vote has
tie prospect of further supsets in the
lower branch of the legislature.
With this condition obtaining 1t is
plain that there is little chance of any
legislation of political significance
passing. The only measures which
have any chance OF going through
are those which are obviously of a
non political nature and even then
both sides are inclined to act with
caution and inspect all bills carefully
to make sure there is no hidden
joker.
Furthermore neither side cares to
take the responsibility for any legisla-
ton which, while it may be non-po-
litical in character may he unpopular

dent OF the federation. his position as
mead or the American Federation of
Labor being considered necessary for
tue guidance of the Pan American
organization which is still in it's in
fancy.
The outstanding fact in connection
with sessions of the congress has been
the evident desire on the part Of
Spanish speaking delegates to receive
oHcial assurances from American
delegates that the American Fedora
ton ot.Lahorf does mot contemplate
exercising, IiGkpina III .aovec actions OF
smaller 4abor bodies belonging to the
Pan American body. All fears appar-
emily have been put to- rest. however,
by statement from Mr.. Gompers.
who announced from the chair that
"the American federation will do
everything possible to guarantee to
even the smallest Pan American ma
tions the right of safe expression"
!. Mr.. Gompers said it was not only
his hope but his conviction that con-
dittons in San Domingo would be
speedily relieved by the United States
government and that similar course
wculd be followed in Nicaragua.

died last October were adopted and

I thought-that II would probably be
a case OF double suicide for us two to
go up against a pair OF armed thugs
with our bare hands. The young wo-
man put In her word.
'You mustn't think OF doing such
thingr she protested; and she was
sul telling him all the different rea-
sons why he mustn't, when we heard
the creak and grind Of the stolen en-
CINE coming back down the old spur.
After that there was nothing 10 do
but to wait and see what was going
10 happen next. What did happen was
as blind as all the rest. The engine
was stopped somewhere IN the gulch
back Of MS and out Of sight from our
hiding place, and pretty soon the two
men who had gone with her came hur-
rylng across out Of the hin shadows,
making straight for the auto. A min
ute or two later they had climbed
into the machine, the motor had sput-
tered, and the car was gone.
