necessary. -...
The resolution was presented by F..
S. Allen, who said hef had been in
charge Of collection of seed loans
in Burleigh county for the last two
years. He told the commissioners he
knew the conditions, that the farm
ers paid $1.5O to $500 per bushel for
their seed and received less much
less than $1.OO for their wheat. He
said that enforced collections would
drive some farmers away and that it
would be better to have several hun
dred farmers remain in the county and
donate the seed, if necessary. He also
said he would urge the legislature
to provide that farmers may repay
county seed loans in grain with an
amount equal to the seed and that
the county hold the grain for a
higher price.

JUDGE MILLER
ISSUES ORDER. ].
IN MINE \ ! J CASE
Restraining Order Directed
Against Miners Striking at
Haynes, South Dakota
PICKETING IS DEFINED

A restraining order directed
against activities of striking miners
of the Haynes Coal Mining Company
at Haynes, North Dakota, and, ac-
cording to the plaintiffs attorney
applying to striking miners of the
State of South Dakota Ignite mine
at Haynes, was granted in district
court late yesterday by Federal
Judge Andrew Miller. The defend
ants, who are So individuals, the
United Mine Workers of America,
theh.union district No. ~ and local
No. 484a, are cited to appear in fed
eral court at Minot on October 13 20
show cause, if any, why the restrain
ing order should not be continued
and an injunction granted.
P. D. Norton Of Mandan, attorney
for the plaintiff, said the action
was directed particularly at picket
ing and other activities carried on
by the miners occupying six tents
close to the two coal mines, and said
that he also represented the South
Dakota Coal Commission in seeking
the order.
The restraining order forbids the
miners from occupying the tents
complained of, from interfering
with free use and occupation by the
Haynes Coal Mining Co. of it's pro-
pertya from interfering with any
employees by use of threats or vic.
lence, from intimidation or coercion,
and "from picketing the buildings
or the property of the complainant
or the alleys, paths or roads leading
to such property or buildings, ex-
cept that one representative of de-
PENDANTS may be maintained at each
regular and established entrance but
not on the property of complainant
for the sole purpose Of announcing
the strike and peacefully persuading
employees and would-be employees not
to work." ID.
Judge Miller's order defines peace
full persuasion as "such persuasion
as would not be unlawful if there
were no strike" L
The Haynes Coal Mining Company
and the South Dakota Coal Com
mission formerly ran union mines.
They decided to reopen the mines as
non-union mines when the miners
refused to abide by the recent "Cleve-
land agreement" and return to work
at the wage scale in force when the
strike was called, officials Of the
mines asserted.

REACH AGREEMENT

Paris, Oct. 5.-An agreement has
been reached by the conference Of
allied and Turkish military leaders
at Mudania, and will be signed some
time today, according to private dis
patches received here. The main lines
of the agreement says The Figaro

First, the British and Turks both
to withdraw from the neutral zone
on the Southern shore of the Dar-
danelles, the British to Gallipoli, and
the Turks behind the line formed by
the rivers Grancous and Skamander-
ko.
Second, the Turks, agree that the
allies remain in Const4ntinople dur
ing the peace negotiations on condi-
tions that the Kemalist civil au-
thorities are also installed there.
Third, the Greek army to evacuate
Thrace within ten days. II the Greek
government refuses to give the nec-
essary orders, the allied fleets are
to blockade the Greek ports and the
Kemalist forces across the Darda-
nelles and drive the Greek troops
out of Thrace.
The dispatches do not say whether
the Greek representatives accepted
these conditions.

London, Oct. 5.-The reports of the
first two days proceedings of. the
allied generals conference with the
Turkish Nationalists at Mudania
have produced sanguine feeling
here, some believing that an arm;s-
tice clearing the way for peace
conference is already assured.
It was even reported yesterday
that a protocol establishing an arm
istice had been actually signed, but
authentic confirmation of this is
lacking. The latest information to
the Associated Press contained in
dispatches which left CONSTANT
nople shortly before midnight, was
to the effect that, Notwithstanding
the generally hopeful status of the
situation the question of Thrace was
still barring the way to settlement.
While the allies have agreed to
turn over Thrace. to the Turkish
army in thirty days, they have no,
acceded OF the Turks request that
the western line of the Martha river
be occupied by allied troops as pro-
lection against Greek flank attack
on the Turkish occupying army.
The determined attitude of the
Greek army and the new Athens gov
eminent is also to be reckoned with.
Colonel Plastiras, chief Greek dele
gate, made it plain to the other con-
ferees that the Greek military lead
ers were determined to resist every
attempt to restore Turkish sover-
eighty over Oriental Thrace.
