CASS DEMOCRATS
Have A HOT time
WARDEN HELLSTROM is TURNED
DOWN FOR CHAIRMAN OF
THE CONVENTION
ED. COLE AND GEN. HlLDREATH
JOIN FORCES AND RUN
THINGS

Fargo, N. D., March 24-Special to
Tribune-This was a great day for
democracy. The interest manifested
in the Cass county convention indi-
Gates that the unterritied feel that
there may be show for national DEM
ocratic success this year.
There was fireworks right from the
start. F. o. Hellstrom, warden of the
penitentiary at Bismarck, was can
didate for chairman Of the convention,
but Ed. Cole and Gen. Hildreath had
combined their forces and Hellstrom
was driftwood.
Attorney Lowell was chosen as
chairman and in the make up of the
committees Gen. Hildreath was de-
cidedly at" He was chairman of the
committee on resolutions, and also
chairman of the committee to suggest
the names of IS delegates to the state
convention at Grand Forks Wednes-
day.
The county central committee had
recommended Hellstrom for chairman
of the convention and it seems that
there was a program-Hellstrom hav-
ing prepared speech against the old
republican gang to spring on the con-
vention. He was not entirely squelch-
ed, however, as when the report in
selecting delegates to the Grand Forks
convention came up he moved that
those named be from among the sew
enty.five or more in attendance at the
county convention and that each dele
gate named should state whether he
would or would not attend the state
convention. In making this motion he
had the opportunity he had lost as
chairman to deliver his set speech
roasting the republican administration
and the "old gang"
1t seems that Mr.. Hildreath wants
to go to Denver to second the nomin-
alton of Bryan and he has been work
ing on his speech for several weeks.
Thus his interest in the convention
and his combination with Ed. Cole,
who wants to be chosen as national
committeeman
Frank Reed of Bismarck, Frank
Lish of Dickinson, and Arthur Brun-
dage Of Hettinger are here en- route
to Grand Forks.
News comes from Richland that in
the county democratic convention the
delegations from Hankinson were
thrown out, which turned the county
over to Max Wipperman for national
committeeman, instead of Ed. Cole,
as was reported yesterday.
Indications point to a hot time in
Grand Forks tomorrow.

RUSSIANS ENLlsTlNG IN U. s.
ARMY EXPECTING TROUBLE
AGAIN

San Antonio, Texas, Mar. 24-spe-
cial-t Is reported at the recruiting
station in this city that number of
Russians have enlisted in the Unit
ed States army and 1t is said that the
same thing has happened at number
OF other recruiting stations. Army Of
hcers here attribute this to the desire
OF the Russians to have another
chance at the Japanese under differ
ent leadership. In this part of the
world this is the only visible effect of
the persistent rumor Of war with ia

giving Johnson honorable mention
or something Of the sort, in the reso-
lutions and that will start something
going.''
Reports received from thirty of
the county conventions of the state
early in the evening, showed that in
fifteen Of these conventions, resolu-
lions instructing delegates to vote
for Bryan have been passed. These
counties will send total of 287
delegates to the convention. In fif-
teen counties no Instructions were
given to delegates. Eleven have not
yet been heard from, but it is ex-
pected, however, that they will be
heard from later tonight. There are
to be 6S6 delegates in the convention
and State Chairman Cashel says that
one-fourth or at the outside one
third are Johnson men.
There will be real live contest
in the convention for the Office of
national committeeman between VIM.
Collins of Bottineau county, Max
Wipperman of Hankinson aau Ed.

The state central committee this
afternoon Endorsed Gov. Burke fol-
delegate at large to the Denver con
vention and he will doubtless get the
honor. One delegate will be chosen
from each of the seven Judicial dis
tricts. Here again there may be some
spirited contests, as nearly every
county has its favorite and some Of
them may be Johnson men.
The most complete reports late to-
night indicate that of the 6s6 dele
gates, 1872 are instructed for Bryan
229 with no instructions and in
structed for Johnson. There are 6,
delegates who have not yet been heart
from.

AT OW that the Rugby football sea-
son is in full sway, the Castaways
l. football team is practicing daily
and has two more practice games yet
to play, the last being scheduled for
Saturday at Fiesta park. The club Is
progressing rapidly and has arranged
schedule of games with the different
out-of-town high schools that will keep
the Castaways playing well up to
Christmas day. he first game will be
with the San Bernardino high school
and will be played on the Gate City
field October 10. H. B. Crouch, who is
president of the club, is one of the best
Rugby players in the south, and as
goal keepet cannot be beat. Capt. Tom
Higgins is another crack player and
will hold his own with any player in
the south. There is a possibility that
the Stanford and Berkeley teams will
play them next winter. The Vancouver
team also is among the possibilities.
The Redlands high school will be played
in one of the last games of the season.
1t will be remembered that the Cast
away club won the Southern California
Rugby championship last year and
have expectations of winning the
trophy again this season. During the
high school season of last year Crouch
played on the Polytechnic team and
was a great credit to the team in all
respects. Crouch Is a graduates of
Stanford and is well liked among the
Rugby football players. Besides being
president of the Castaway club he is
president of the Southern California
Rugby league.

good class IN his speedy and clever
boxing. His most impressive work was
with Maurice Sayers, who once was re-
garded down east as top-notcher in
the lightweight ranks. This workout
consisted in a fiVe-round rough house
session in which those in the audience
who are backing Danny Webster sus-
tanned quite shock Everybody knows
how Webster fghts-open and with
plenty of action all the time-and after
seeing Wolgast work out there is moth
ing in prospect but one big, little battle
between miniature giants of the ring.
]. e. Krause, local superintendent
of the A. D. L. company, and a thor
ough business man as well as most
popular sportsman, confdes the infor-
nation that one of his boys, NO. rs, is
q future world champion. He expects
this boy some day to be as big a SEN
sation as Stanley Ketchel. While talk
ing it over with Jack Ripper and VIII
son few days ago, the latter named
sportsmen agreed to dig up a worthy
opponent for the fieet-Winged messen-
ger boy, and "kidded' Krause nearly
TO death. Now, Baron Long says 1t IS
UP to krause to send his boy out and
prove his ability. a preliminary may
be arranged between the amateurs, and
owing to the prominence of the re-
spect1ve hackers of the boys, the bout
will be more interesting than any pre-
linn ever pulled off in the south. 1t
will be staged soon.
Reports from Frisco are to the eff
feet that Billy Delaney, the only orig
inal manufacturer of world champions,
has assumed the difficult role of man
ager of Abe Attell. While nobody
questions the good judgment shown by
Attell in taking on such capable
manager, many fear that Billy is tack
ling a big job handling one SO slip
perry as the little Hebrew. Abe needs
manager, all right enough, and De-
laney will make him go to bed and
live decently enough to keep in condi-
ton to fight better than continuous
performance of draws.
This Is the last week of the Coast
league baseball season that the An
gels will play on foreign diamonds.
San Francisco will be the victim this
week, beginning seven-g game series
tomorrow. Inasmuch as the Beavers
beat the Seals six in seven games
last week, the Angels should find 1t
rather easy to pick off five or six fom
them. Anyway, the Champions are so
far out in front that there is no posi-
bility of catching them before they re-
turn home, SO it looks like gravy from
the pan for them to win the flag again.
However, the gang has been doing such
lovely and winning work while away
that it looks like a dirty shame that
they should be permitted to return
home without some sort of decent
recognition of their werk, when down
east the fans are going broke to show
their near-champs how much they are
appreciated. 1t might be that If the
Angels were fighting to get into first
place, instead of showing their class
| in a runaway race, they would arouse
more enthusiasm. This is one of the
remarkable features of the game. A
losing team Is not supported because
it cannot win and has no class. A
team, like the Angels, that makes a
runaway race of the pennant chase
and shows too much class kills in
terest and enthusiasm. Why is 1t?

as many in the south. Ewing has
shown the white feather and has gone
over to the McCredie camp. With the
support of Ewing, McCredie can have
his own way in Coast league baseball
affairs, as Oakland, under the spur and
whip of it's indebtedness to Papa Ish,
Ewing's daddy-in-law. will follow Ew-
ing's lead like watch dog. That will
leave Berry standing alone. But, even
if Oakland strings with Berry, it will
be only a deadlock. The fans will reap
the whirlwind to which they sowed in
supporting syndicate baseball If con-
tinuous ball Is not given to Los An
geles. With the outlaw State league
ready to break into this territory, it is
difficult to figure out where the Coast

four flushing, embarrassing tactics.

~ CUTHERN baseball fans are
~ awaiting anxiously for some word
~ from Hen Berry regarding the
local baseball situation. Enough has
been sent over the wires from the
marshes Of the northwest to justify the
suspicion that Hen Is to be the fall
guy in a new arrangement in the Coast
league and that he is to be disappoint-
ed in his honest efforts at keeping his
promises to the fans of continuous
baseball for Los Angeles next year. All
the fans know Hen too well to even
suspect that he will give up the ship
at any time, even when the last nope

Calamity Ewing is not man to be

the south, which he cannot deny with
the same grace and effectiveness with
which he denied the adverse talks cred-
tied to him in the San Francisco news
papers recently upon the same SUBJECT
it is up to Ewing to make GOOD or
make an effort in that direction. Ewing
has nlaced himself in a position where
neither the north nor the south can
listen with confidence to what he says.
The situation has resolved itself INTO
that state of affairs that Ewing must
go through with his promises or sup
port of continuous baseball in Los An

It is refreshing in this hour of doubt

DUCK HUNTERS READY
FOR SEASON TO OPEN
Already Preparations for Vacations
Are Being Made, and Gun Clubs
Are Beginning to Arouse
More Interest

Members Of the Southern Califor-
mia gun clubs are in a fever of activity
over the opening bombardment due
october 1, when they will trek to their
various resorts and prepare to bag the
limit of ducks. Already many mem
bers have wendell their way toward
the marshes to size UP the situation
and get things in readiness for the
opening day. Blinds are to be rebuilt
and duck scowS caulked up and put
afloat. Gum boots are to be unfolded
and creased. old khaki trousers washed
out and summed and a thousand other
things put in readiness.
Not the least important preparation
for the coming season is the oiling of
the decoys TO make them stand UP well
in the water. Guns are being cleaned
out and oiled and stores of ammuni-
ton, enough to slaughter half the
ducks on the coast. are being pur-
chased and slowed away in hunting
Jackets for ready use. Then there are
the little side issues that have to be
attended to and which mean so much
enjoyment of club life during the hap
by hunting days. Refreshments

Half the Joy of the hunt Is the So
cial gathering in the club house. when
the tired sportsmen come struggling In

days experience. A cigar and a cold
bottle add wonderfully to the eongen-
iality of such an occasion.

up against It, With this exception,
Coach Gorton has a fine bunch of ma
terial to work with. Thomson is billed
for the feature of this years team
and is to play fullback, while Collins
will be at half. Casey Hayes, form
er Belmont full back, is trying out for
the other half and has fair chance
of making it, as the Presbyterians are
short of backfield men.
Conrad, who was picked for center
on the All-Southern California eleven
last year, will be In his old place, with
Patterson at one guard and Kellogg or
Thomson for the other. In the tackles
will be Captain Wieman, who will do
all the punting and goal kicking, and
McDermott. Johnson, another veteran,
will be In his accustomed place at end,
with the other end open for all corners.
The Saints have sustained new losses
and have several promising additions
in Midget" Meats, the new quarter
back from Grand Rapids, and Thomp-
son, a guard from the same school.

players when Hempel passed the bas-
ket, in Casey, for guard, Buckles, for

frolic on the field. The cactus eleven
have few men left from last year to
start the season. Capt. Taylor. at
guard; Parker, at end; Rogers. full
back: Mahoney. at half. and Vale, at
quarter, constitute the remnants. Tay-
lor Is man of several years expert
ence at the game. Parker is a speedy
end, while Mahoney plays a fair game
at half. Rogers started in last year
at fullback, but injuries put him out
OF the game early in the season. If he
returns to college, he will be the prob
able full.
From the second team come Lor-
beer and Gore, who should make var
sity. The former is a backfield man
and the latter is expected to take
Smiths place at end. Carver, q for
mer Occidental prep" player, will try
out for the backfield, and May, new
conner of 200 pounds weight and UNI
known athletic pedigree, should get on
the line somewhere. Benner and Tan
geman, members Of the 1905 varsity,
who were kept off the team by an ex-
cess of school work last year, have sig
nihed their intention of trying out for
the squad this season. Benner plays
end or guard equally well. while Tan
geman Is a crack tackle and fullback.
Vale will assist Hartzel in the man
agement of the schedule, and also may
have a try at quarterback, with which
position he is familiar.

PROMISING
Failure of Conference at Occidental
Causes General Regret, but Fall
Games Should Be Interest,"
ing, Anyway
By II. HAMMOND BEALL

The failure of the conference schools
and u. S. C. to come to terms Satur-
day has barred the possibility of any
local COLLEGIATE schedule being framed
up at present, but even with the breach
left open between the various southern
colleges. there should be an abundance
of classy college football furnished by
the elevens of Southern California IN
stitutions.
Coach Walter Hempel will import
middle western college teams to fill in
his schedule and, as usual, play all his
games at Fiesta park. The only local
games which the Saints have scheduled
are with the Sherman Indian braves
from Riverside and with Los Angeles
high school.
The high school game will open the
local season. The st. Vincent-Colorado
school of mines game will be feature
of the schedule, as that team never has
been seen in the west before and should
prove a drawing card. "Aggies" seem
to be a failing of the Vincentian coach,
for it will be the Utah "Aggies" this
year, instead of the Oregon squad
which came south last year. The tur-
key and cranberry attraction for
Thanksgiving day will be the match
with the Indians.
The climax of the season will be the
Istruggle between Occidental and Po-
mona on November 81 on the Highland
Park gridiron. There always has been
an intense rivalry between the two
colleges, probably due to the fact that
they have been more closely associated
since the breech with st. Vincents and
the University of Southern California.
For the last two years the Presoy-
terians have taken the day, but with
new coaches at both schools this year.
the chances are even.
Coach Hempe. is the only veteran
trainer in the field and has the ad-
vantage of knowing the situation and
being. thoroughly familiar with his ma
terial. At Occidental the new man,
Gorton, is introducing the Highland
Park huskies to the open formation as
it is played in the east, while at Clare
mont Coach Stanton, another eastern
importation, from Dickinson college,
will start the same thing on Tuesday.
The sagebrushers are beginning the
season with a handicap of a weeks de-
lay in getting down to practice. Al
u. s. c. Dean Cromwell, an old Oc-
cidental graduate, is trying to turn
out a winning team with bunch or
raw material 1t is his first coaching
position in any western college and
he has an excellent chance to make
reputation for himself.
At this time Occidental and st. Vim
cent appear to have the strongest
SQUADS, as the majority of the candi-
dates are old men at the game, with
from one to three years experience,
while at Pomona and u. s. @. the new
coaches will have to develop their
eieyens out of new material. with only
a small nucleus of veterans.

ment Is quarterback. With SPEEDY"
