PLANT TROUT AT PLATTEvILLE

PLATTEVILLE-Peter Johns, a res
ident of this city, and owner of a
farm near the Big Platte river country
near McAdams creek, has planted 49,
900 trout fry in the stream running
through his farm. The little fish will
be protected with deep pools and
cover for winter months.
The difficulty of propagating fish in
this locality lies in high waters in the
Platte river bottoms. Only the brown
or German trout, it has been found by
experience, survives the floods.
Should the project prove successful,
Mr. Johns will plant each year until
good results are obtained and trout
fishing has been restored TO the
streams south of Platteville.-Journa

HoW Lanes Became Alleys

After the Civil war it was necessary
to house the great number of soldiers
left in Washington. The system Of
city squares. with lanes veining the
center of each square between the
back yards, made 1t possible for wood
en- barracks to be built in the backyard
space. When the soldiers left The bar
racks were taken over by thousands
of negroes, who had come TO Washing
ton to seek government aid. AS
domestic servants were In demand,
many of the negroes stayed. Small
houses soon replaced the barracks and
the lanes became alleys.

REMOVAL OF G. {. B. IS
ACTION TAKEN BY THE
|. W. W. CONVENTION

Yesterday saw the removal from
power of all the Industrial Workers
of the World officials involved in
the recent injunction controversy.
The convention went on record as
regulating the action of the Off
ciaIs on both sides In the controver-
sy by temporarily eIecting a COM
mittee Of administration from the
delegates and completely excluding
any Of the old officers.
A committee Of three was elected
by the convention to act as tenn
porary officers under the instruction
and jurisdiction of the convention
and to take charge Of the Industrial
Workers of the World national af-
fairs uhtR The fact.onal contnogersy
is decided upon by the convention.
This means that Tom Doyle and
Joe Fisher on the one side and Crit
fifth, Rowan and Bowerman on the
other side, have been ousted. With
them also went James Morris, as
sistant secretary to Doyle.
The motion also stipuIates that
the duly elected administration
make its headquarters at 1901 W..
Madison street, the regular national
office and the officials be notified
of their temporary suspension.
Supplies, books and other belong
ings of the Industrial Unions Nos.
$50, 31o and 100 are to be returned
to the Industrial Unions and that
Industrial Unions Nos. $40 and $40
with other property be controlled by
the administration elected by the
convention. This action, however,
cannot be taken until the temporary
injunction is lifted.
