There were probably 250 men and¢e women in the hall during the con- vention, including @ large number of delegates who had been present at the state convention in Fargo last March. The convention today was called jointly by the state and national executive committees. In the lobbies last night and to: day there was discussed the question of what will be done by the league this fall,but this matter had not been reached’ on the convention floor this afternoon. It was plain that the thing uppermost in the minds of the leaders of the league was the election of Lynn J. Frazfet to be United States Senator. All their ac-, tivities will be pointed, toward this end. " Frazier’s Election Uppermost Several of the league Jeaders wan! to demand support for Frazier from all the voters in the state as a Re- + publyan. F. W. Cathro, former manager of the Bank of North Da- kotas voiced this idea. y “We hold,” said Mr. the only two real Republican tions are the ‘onpartisan le and the McCumber ‘They are conservative; we are pro- gressive, but both are interested in preserving the Republican party. The I. V. A. cannot claim to be real Republicans.' They have made an open agreement to fuse with thé Democrats, to support Democrats for office. If Governor Frazier goes to « the senate you may be sure that where the interests of the farm bloc, northwest agriculture are not paramount .he wil! be found on party questions voting with the Republi- cans in the United States Senate.” Plans Outlined - The convention was called to or- der by W. J. Church, chairman of the state executive committee. The convention resolved to continue the officers of the last state convention, and J. C. Miller, of Bottineau, as- sumed the chairmadship of the con- vention. The state and national ex- ecutive committees agreed upon & method of procedure, This called for consideration first of the organ- ization plans.

He did not say what member- ship fee was proposed, but it was understood it was to be $10 or $1 for a two-year membership. Lemke’s Idea William Lemke, speaking for the national executive: committee, sai that the committee proposed that organization would be in the hands of that committee; that the member- ship fee would be $6.80 for two years, this to include a subscription + to the North Dakota Leader and the National Nonpartisan Leader, and penses of organizing. A separate drive would be started to obtain money with which to pay off accom- modation notes which farmers have signed for the league organization he said. This drive would be sep- arate from the membership cam- paign. Mr. Lemke dwelt especially upon the obligation he said Mr. Townley, himself and F. B,,Wood felt regard- ing the accommodation notes. He ,said that accommodation notes had been given by farmers to meet league expenses and that the league could not clear its obligations be- cause farmers did not pay $800,000 of post-dated checks which had been given, The membership of the league, he said, should see that the accommodation notes are paid.

Four on Grand Jury. It seems probable from the rec- ords introduced from the other judi- cial districts that the four women on the grand jury at Fargo were the first four women in North Dakota to serve on a grand jury. Other judges indicated that while they had women called as jurors, they. had found ‘it easy to excuse them from duty ‘while one judge re- ported that the one woman caiied in his court had been barred from every jury, the attorneys not seeming to desire that a woman judge the evi- dence in the cases. / Judge C. W. Buttz of the Second District .reported that he personally had not had experience with women jurors, but that, “A friend of mine in St. Paul, who served with women jurors last winter, tells»me that he had a feeling that they wore incgnen to put considerable sentiment in tnetr verdicts and to take what they con, sidered their notion of what the facts or evidence ought, to be rather than what they really were.~ Judge Buttz expressed an opinion that after the. newness wears _ off and women jurors become a common thing, there will be little difference between men and women jurors.

A canvass of the county made by The Tribune with the as- sistance of telephone operators: at est damage from hail in the Bald- win county, north of the city, east, and southwest through Cromwell and Naughton townships to the vicinity of McKenzie. Hard rains were reported at Regan and Wing, but no hail. Moffit, south- east, reported hard rains but with only a small amount of hail. The storm seems to have centered in a few townships in the north central part of the county. A farmer three miles north of Mc- Kenzie reported that the hail was so large it broke windows and that one field looked as if a. roller haa |gone over it. Another farmer, 71-2 miles north of McKenzie, said that damage was virtually 100 per cent in that section. A farmer 12 miles northwest of McKenzie reported there was some hail, but not enougs: to do much damage. The north half of Naughton town- ship was badly damaged by hail, but the south half of the township was not damaged at all, according to‘a farmer living in that township.

From Wexford, Limerick, Waterford Tullow in coun- ty Carlow and several other places came stories of serious privations, ascribed mainly to the commandeer- ing of food supplies for the use of the insurgent troops. These supplies, it is said, have been seized without the least regard for the nee f the people, and without compensation to the owners.

St. Paul, Minn., July 15.—Change of Minnesota potato grades to con- form to the recently adopted United States grades was announced by N. J. Holmberg, commissioner of agriculture, yesterday, at a meeting of producers and shippers on pro- posed grades of farm produce. The change in the potato grading, Mr. Holmberg said, is necessary in order to keep Minnesota shipments in line with the market demand in the large consuming centers. Grade No. 1, as now described, shall consist of “sound potatoes of similar varietal’ characteristics which are practically free from dirt or other foreign matter, frost in- jury, sunburn, second growth, growth cracks, cuts, scab, blight, soft rot, and damage caused yb dis- ease or mechanical or other means.” “The diameter of the potatoes of the round variety,” the order reads “shall not be less than one and seven cighths inches and of potatoes of the long varieties, one and three-fourths inches.” The federal grade was also ad- hered to in the Minnesota grades for cucumbers, cabbage, onions, let-| tuce, tomatoes, rough celery andj washed celery. The Texas grades were adopted for cantaloupe and summer squash and the Colorado frades for carrots, beets, turnips, PRICE FIVE CENTS PLAN 10 PUT NON-UNION MEN IN ALL SHOPS Railrcad Executives Believe Railroad Labor Board’s Efforts Have Failed WHITE HOUSE HOPEFUL Government Officials Will Cling to Belief that Strike May Be Settled WOULD REVISE ACT (By the Assorted Press) _ Washington, July 15.—Hear- ings will be held by the senate interstate commerce committee to initiate revision of the trans- portation act, and deal with problems developed by the pres- ent strike, Chairman Cummins stated today. : White house officials still ex- pressed hope of peace today despite the apparent failure of railroad labor board members to obtain a settlement. Railroad executives on the oth- er hand had practically aban- doned all hope and prepared to open all shops with non-union men while the national strike committee conferred over vester- day's peace proposals, Inspectors for Secretary of War Weeks and Governor Neff of Texas were to report on whether troops should be sent to protect railroad property at Denison, Texas, Slight disorders occurred at Carbondale, Pennsylvania and Chattanooga, Tennessee.

E. F, Grable, president of the Unit- ed Brotherhood of Maintenance Em- ployes and Railway Shop Laborers who faced rebellion in the ranks of his organization, left Chicago for Washington with the avowed inten- tion of fighting every move of the “red flag” element in the ranks. He declared no strike action by main- tenance men would be sanctioned by him unless the men are “coerced” into it by railroads attempting to force maintenance men to perform duties usually done by shopmen now on strike, Mr. Grable went to Wash- ington to confer with President Harding on the threatened walkout by common labor on the roads. The encouragement in Mr. Grable’s atti- tude was partially offset by the strike call to stationary firemen, engineers and oilers who were authorized by their international president Timothy Healy, to walk out of their jobs next Monday. Disorders in connection with the strike were largely con- fined to the south and southwest. Troops Relieved. Troops at Poplar Bluffs, Mo., were relieved by other detachments of Missouri national guard and the town remains quiet. At Tulsa, Okla, a guard for the Midland Valley was wounded in a sharp clash between guards and strike sympathizers at Lefeber. At Chattanooga, Tenn. Bernard Mallon, Yr, attache ‘of the office of the general manager of the South- ern railroad was held up by masked men, beaten- and stabbed. Two strike-breakers were taken from a train at Memphis and beaten and a deputy sheriff was wounded in a riot at the Burnside shops of the Illinois Central in Chicago. Governor Davis of Ohio ordered mobilization of state troops in prep- aration for any trouble which might arise in connection with the strike. United States marshals and extra forces of deputies» were placed on guard over mails and railroad prop- erty at Roanoke, Va. Los Angeles and Toledo, Ohio. Fires Break Out.
