Gaston, of the Minnesota | Daily Star., A paragraph of the let- | ter reads: “There is another subject which I desire to bring to your attention, in! which I have had some conversation and little correspondence with various persons interested in liberal publica- tions. I refer to the difficulty that is! being experienced in securing sup-| plies of paper. Learning a short time ; ago that Mr. Upton Sinclair had inter-| ested himself in a plan for establish- | ing ccoperative paper production in! the irterests of labor and other liberal publications, I wrote to him, giving him certain information which I had} collected some years previous relating to available supplies of paper pulp wood. Mr. Sinclair referred me to Mr. Costello, Managing Editor of the | Federated Press, but I have not yet} taken the matter up with him.” \ Roylance wrote considerable mat- ter for The Federated Press, which | had on its executive board Robert M.| Buck, of the New Majority; R. E.) Smith, of the Daily Bulletin, Butte, Montana, and Herbert E. Gaston, of! the Minnesota Daily Star. The Fed-{ erated Press serves many radical pub- | lications. | i | Writes Senator Ladd. A paragraph of a letter of B. J. Costello, managing editor of The Fed- erated press, written Jan. 17, 1921, placed Roylance and Scott Nearing to- | gether in the gratitude of the writer, who said: “I trust that some day our finances will be in such shape that we can adequately compensate both you | and Dr. Nearing and the other friends | of the labor press who write for us) swith no tangible reward.” Roylance wrote several letters to} Senator “Ladd on the subject of! jand La¥ollette would have much in common and be political chums.” eas ee MANDAN NEWS | | Mandan Man Is | Accidentally Shot Jamet Gorman, well known machin- | ist employed in the’ Northern Pacific! railroad shops exhibited real pluck and herve Saturday morning when at-| ter accientally shooting John Schlos- | ser, he picked the latter up and car- ried him for a long distance to the; Frank McGillic farm house where a conveyance was secured and the in-! jured man brought to the city to the’) office of a physician. Schlosser and! Gorman were\ hunting‘ rabbits in the} brush ‘east of the city and were on: opposite sides of a thicket. Gorman | shot at a rabbit and Schlosser run-/ ning behind the thicket: behind the! thick brush stepped directly in front’ of the charge. His legs were pepper-! ed from ankle to knee, many pellets! penetrating the flesh. Gorman is not! a large man, but he shouldered Schlosser and started for help pluck-| ily fighting a long distance through! the woods. None of the’ wounds 're- | ceived by Schlosser will result seri! says the attending physician, largely because Gorman took such prompt means to insure first aid.
