WOMEN FORM
MCMAsTERCLUBS
WILL PLAN A VIGOROUS CAM
PAIGN THIS MONTH.

Sioux Falls, March 6.-Republi-
can women in South Dakota plan to
insure the nomination of Governor
William H. McMaster at the primar-
les March %. A statewide organi-
zation, known as the "McMaster for
Governor" club is being formed, the
local branch having been perfected
Thursday in Sioux Falls by Mrs. f.
ID. Smith of Deadwood who spent
several days here for that purpose.
Mrs. Smith left today for Mitchell
to organize the women there.
Mrs Alan Bogue, Jr., is the chair
man of the organization here, Mrs.
F. o. Simonson, vice chairman and
Mrs. Ellen Hanna the secretary and
a county organization is being per-
fected with Miss Lulu Belle Howard,
chairman, Mrs. Anne M. Eddy, first
chairman, and Mrs. C. A. Williams of
Dell Raids, second vice chairman.
Every precinct in the county is or
ganized and will be represented by
chairmen and a vigorous campaign
prosecuted to arouse the women 20
turn out in large numbers at the
polls and vindicate the record of the
governor who, they feel, expresses
the ideals of the womanhood of
South Dakota.
The "McMaster for Governor" or
ganization is devoted to only the
one issue and has no alliance with
any majority or minority interests
other issues whatsoever, it was stated
and is purely republican organiza-
tion to reflect the views of women
in this state and see that past tradi
tions for having governors of high
type are upheld.
Campaign headquarters will be op-
ened in Sioux Falls within few
days and enrolment of women is
already starting. The organization
tion is receiving much encourage
ment and 1t is believed only ques-
tion of proper organization to insure
heavy vote for Governor McMaster
at the primaries.

FOR
COAL STRIKE
BIG INDUSTRIES COMMENCING
TO STORE SUPPLIES.

Chicago, March 6.-In anticipa-
tion of coal strike April /, the rail-
roads, the gas and electric utilities
and some large industries are filling
up the fuel bins. A so to 90-day
supply is being stored up by utilities
in general through the middle west.
Coal operators appear to regard
the strike as a certainty. Secretary
Hoover, for weeks, has been saying
the stage is all set for a great indus
trial struggle; the miners themselves
seem to regard the strike as newt
able, unless there is government in
tervention. Fuel experts who have
been scouting over the country for
large consumers to learn the actuai
situation, report prevalent belief
that if the strike comes it will last
at least until the beginning of Au-
gust. 1t is on this basis, that many
wise virgins are filling their lamps.
Dealers report that among ordin-
airy industrial consumers, orders are
much smaller than looked for. Some
declare if they runt out of fuel they
will close up their plants for a time.
Dealers say that ordinary manufac-
turers, in general, are averse to stor-
ing up coal when mine prices and
freight rates may come down before
many month";.
Meanwhile more than 60,00O,0O
tons of fuel, hard and soft coal and
coke, are in storage, or about sew
en-week supply at the current rate
of consumption. Counting upon
what can be produced in the non
union fields, experts estimate the
country would not feel any real
fuel pinch until August or Septem-
Der, unless industry should hit up a
fast clip during the summer.

nor walked into the pen with his

each other attempted to force them
to make room for the smaller ami
NAL and one which has many times
shown a disposition for being ugly,
rushed him and knocked him off his
feet before he was able to meet the
brute. After the man had fallen the
hog attempted to get at his throat
and chest but by acting quickly o.
Connor managed to regain his feet
and beat hasty retreat. The hog
pursued hi INTO the fence.

May Further Restrict
Pool Hall Patronage

Pierre, March 6.-It is the opin-
ion of Attorney General Byron 5.
Payne that there is nothing to pre-
vent Sioux Falls or any other muni-
cipal corporation from preventing
persons under the age of Fl from
entering or frequenting pool and bill
lard halls, should suitable ordin-
ance, be passed by the municipal
government, even though the state
makes it a misdemeanor for persons
under the age of 18 entering and
frequenting such places.
The opinion is made at the request
of r. w. Parliman, city attorney OF
Sioux Falls, who asks IL such an ord
nance enacted by that city would or
would not be a legal act.
