CHAPTER 46,-

 On the morning of March ' awoke at a point some three hundred miles from my western prison home. l felt chilled and weak, had dull head ache, and there was peculiar sem sation of heaviness and occasional cutting pains In my chest.
 In the dining car I was unable to eat. I took out my watch and tested my pulse. It registered 93. From the dining car I went to the observa- ton car. There I entered into con- versation with another passenger, and upon telling him how I felt he told me in four words what the trou- ble was:
 You've got the flu"
 "AreNyou a physician" asked.
 NO, but I've had the flu I'm not oevr 1t yet. and 1t began exactly as you describe your trouble"
 "Wonder if I could find a physician aboard" said I.
 "A physician couldn't help you any. Might quarantine you" 0

 "Oh, most anywhere. perhaps" he told me. Now, maybe he couldn't take you from a train. but if you should get so sick that you'd have to leave the train. why. into quaran- tine you'd go."

 I did not leave the train dead, but when. after the most miserable days travel I ever put in. I left 1t at my destination. l was so Ill that could scarcely walk.
 The deputy warden, in tho tempo rary absence of the warden. met me at the station. and as soon as I ar rived at the prison I went straight to my room and to bed. No physician was sent for that night. but early the next morning he was on hand. "FaithfuI To Great Trust.-
 Well, Kane" he told me in joc- ular mood, yet I knew what he said was true. its got you"
 You mean the 'flu'?" I managed to ask.
 "Yes," he answered. Are you go- Ing to let 1t kill you?"
 Not by long shot" said I, which started a severe attack of coughing.
 That's the way to feel about 1t. It would be the hardest kind of luck for man to die after getting his fight won-and I don't believe you're naturally unluoky. There arg lot

 There are eight New Haven leased lines: The Old Colony, Boston and Providence, Providence and Wor- cester, Norwich and Worcester, liar lem River and Portchester, Hol- yoke and Westfeld, Providence, War ren and Bristol and the Chatham railroad. In most cases the. rentals guarantee a fixed dividend on the stocks, but there are some variations in the stipulations of the leases.
 The Old Colony IS much the largest leased road and it's mileage pretty we'll covers southeastern Massachu- setts. Of it's $22, ,2o5, 1000 stock New Haven owns $o,8I3,ooo. Of this, the New Haven has pledged $3, ,287, ,ooo with the secretary of the treasury of the United States as part security for loans.

 Right to Speak
 At Buffalo Meeting

(Continued from Page One) "Tresca had bad reputation and po- lice chiefs all- over the country had congratulated him on preventing the. first Tresca meeting"
 By the afternoon he announced that Tresca might address the meeting provided he spoke in English. When a former district attorney was quoted to the effect that 1t made no differ ence what language a speaker used but what he said counted, the mayor weakened visibly. He asked his cor poration counsel for legal advice and was told that up to date his actions had been illegal The mayor then consented" to the holding of the meeting that night

NEW l. I. U. HEAD
 A MAN OF ABILITY
Is Well Up In Economics as Well
 as Trade Union Matters.

Charles P. Howard of Detroit, who succeeded to the office of president of the International Typographical Union upon the recent death of John Mcfarland, is widely known in the realm of economics as we'll as in trade union circles. He first gained prominence in labor affairs while a resident of Portland, Oregon, where he was elected\ president of the cen tral labor body.
 At the beginning of the World War MT. Howard was enlisted by Secre- tary of Labor Wilson to assist in ad- justing labor problems. He acted as assistant director of the bureau of in dutrial adjustment until the signing of the armistice, and in addition to the duties of that office made tour of the country carrying the war mes sage to labor.

last strike. This campaign is pri- marily addressed to the skilled men and calls for organization along strict craft union lines under the laws of the American Federation of Labor. Michael F. Tighe, president of the Amalgamated Association Iron, Steel and Tin Workers, is chairman of the committee.
 "The Pittsburgh district will be left to the last We will use Foch tao tics there, organizing all about 1t, so that when we do go in there 1t will he in the jaw of the pincers. Be- fore real work begins there a court fight must. be started to establish the right of the men in the mills to free speech and free assembly.
 Delay in going into Pittsburgh does not mean that the Steel Cor poration is going to be neglected. It has plenty of mills in and near Chi cago and in the Cleveland district. Tn them we have already begun to get results"
 Doubt was expressed in steel circles as to how long 1t will take to abolish the 12-hour day after Sep, tember I.
 "The work of elimination will be-
 
 said, "but it would be a mistake to say that the 12-hour day will be abol- ished on that date. It would be like starting on trip around the world that day. You would start, yes, but 1t would be rather incorrect to say that you could complete the trip in day.
 The Hartford Times under the cap ton "GOMPERS' BIG FIGHT" offers the following editorial opinion on the matter:
 Samuel Gompers announces that he will make a third attempt to unionize the steel industry. Ten or twelve attempts have been made heretofore, two by MT. Gompers, and all have failed Failure is predicted for Mr. Gompers' third attempt, which he says will be the fight of his life, on account of the fact that thousands of steel workers are now owners of stock in the corporation which employs them.
 When the United States Steel cor poration was organized the average wage per man was $7I7 annually. The average wage in 1923 will prob ably be close to $2,ooo annually. Only dDOut Zo per cent. or Steel WOrkerS are on duty for I2 hours at a stretch and the announcement by President Gary that the I2-hour day will be done away with has strengthened the position of the great steel company. When it is considered that the United States Steel company will pay out in wages over $4oo, COG, ,ooo this year compared with $I2o, 100000 in 1902 there is some point to the argument that steel workers have fared better than shareholders, who have to be content with the same old five per cent. dividend on the common stock In. other words profits not ploughed in to the company's plants have been dispersed in the form of wages rath- CT than dividends.
 "The steel corporation is employ ing today nearly 242,ooo men, of whom probably 75,ooo are holders of shares of stock. All told 1t looks as though Mr. Bompers had, not under stated it when he says that the or ganizing of the steel industry will be the fight of his life.''

dition of the American Legion Hall in
Wood is an example of what will hap
pen to any building unless a stop is
put to such criminal practices. It's
a shame and a disgrace to any COM
munity, and we are glad to see the
Board take drastic action to put a stop
to this shameful practice. 1t parents
cannot control their children and
young men and women, perhaps a little
soiourn in one of the state institu-
tons will teach them a lesson OF re
spect for property that is not their
own.
From all reports that new law
passed by the recent legislature, IL
censing all truck freighters and pass
enger carrying autos in the state is
certainly another piece of fool legisla-
ton that is going to work a hardship
on those sections of the state that
are more or less isolated from rail
roads. From what we can learn Of
the operations Of this law it will have
a tendency to give those who can af-
ford to dig up a license fee of $500
Il year a monopoly on the freighting
business in the r~ailroadless counties
of the state, will deny the farmer who
hauls his hogs to the railroad in his
own truck the privilege OF bringing
out a load of freight and charging a
fee for his service, and the same is
also true of the passenger carrying
business. If we continue program
of legislative ~hampering and regula-
ton of business for the next ten years
at the same pace that WI have been
going for the past ten years we are
simply going to legislate all kinds OF
business clear out of existence, and
unless you are lucky enough to get a
job as an inspector,o of some sort under
state or federal government, you will
have the privilege of working to help
sustain this ever-increasing army of
public officers. 1t is high time that
a halt was called by the great a
Of common people and the politicians
given to understand in no uncertain
terms that what this state and nation
desire is more real common horse
sense business in politics and less
| politics in business, a genuine pruning
off of public officials and bureau in
spectors, less laws and more enforce
ment. In fact, if a ten-year holiday
of the various legislative branches Of
our government, both state and nation,
were declared business and pre-
a ess might hav, snrae chance to max e

er the big rain and he was feeling
pretty good as he had just finished
sowing ten more acres of alfalfa on
his homestead, which now gives him
forty-five acres of this m~ortgage-llft-
ing plant. Last year he let about two
acres Of his alfalfa 90 to seed and
he harvested the seed and threshed it
and sold 1925 worth Of seed from
these two acres, besides saving enough
seed to SOW 25 acres more. Not so
bad. Nj. Week firmly believes that
anyone can buy a farm. in Mellette
county today, prepare and SOW twenty
acres of the land to alfalfa and the
twenty acres of the alfalfa will pay
for the entire 100 acre farm in five
years time. This may sound rather
fishy to some of the uninitiated or
those who are farming some of the
high priced eastern land, but this is
actually what Mellette county soil and
alfalfa are capable of doing. Mr..
Week is growing Grimm alfalfa on his
farm.

of day or night. True, school build

not give anyone a license to enter

company held a meeting at the schoo
house in Wood last Friday evening
At this meeting the company met with
representatives Of the Case and Wood
Bros. threshing machine companies,
and discussed the purchasing OF a new
separator for the threshing season OF
1923. We understand they placed an
order for a new 50-inch separator OF

suffered severe losses by wind and

Tuesday. Only one OF two people
came to attend the meeting.

the Ladies Aid society at her home
southwest of town, yesterday after
noon.
A report came to town Monday that

Cash's are well known people who
have made their home in the Rosebud
for a number of years.
Notwithstanding the heavy rains of
last week, the ground was getting
rather dry On top, and Monday night
we were visited by a good heavy rain.
The precipitation amounted to 80 OF

can almost see the corn grow these
fine warm days. The prospects for a
bumper corn crop in Mellette county
are certainly bright at this time.
John Kricger, of northeast OF Wood
was here Tuesday and he was feeling
mighty good over the prospects OF
bumper crops in the county this year.
He says everything he planted IS prom
Using a record breaking crop. Three
wears ago he set out a few grape vines
and they bore some fruit last year,
and this year he says the vines are
literally loaded down with delicious
fruit. Mr.. Krieger believes this fruit
can be very successfully grown in
Mellette county.
