torius. Miss White, the general sec
rotary working with her committee is
now preparing plans for their continu-

taken in these meetings shows the
possibilities and benefits have been and
will continue to be incalculable. Dur
ing the spring months the attendance
has steadily increased Each Sunday
the best of women speakers of both
Fargo and Moorhead have been select
ed and splendid talks, both practical
and spiritual have resulted.
The musical talent of the city has
given its services freely so that each

At these services more than any other
branch Of the association work women
of widely differing interests and capa-
bilities are brought together for mutu-
ally uplifting influences.
The closing service proved Of I'M
usual interest. Miss Whites announce
ments given at some length were Of
great Importance, showing growth and
strength in all lines OF her work.
Mrs. C. r. Adams, the speaker for

manner. Few people possess her per-
sonality and ability to convey truths

The devotional exercises were lead
by Miss Roberta Brown. The vocal
number by Miss Lowell was exception
ally beautiful. None but regretted this
to be the last service for the sum

to the Y. M. c. A. for allowing it the
use Of the auditorium for these SER
vices. When the vesper services are
resumed they will be held in the re-

REPUBLICAN HEADQUARTERS.

Affairs at republican headquarters in
the Cole hotel, are quiet just at pres
ent. With the exception of a clerk or
two, and all the help about the head
quarters have been let go, and
the place is run by State
Chairman Cooper and Secretaries
Van Horn and Major Hamilton. The
latter however leaves this evening for
Grand Forks where he will assist in
winding up the campaign for this
season. The major lives at the Forks
and believes he can be of more assist
ance there than here just at the pres
ent time. All of the work has been
done at republican headquarters and
nothing now remains excepting to get
the vote out next Wednesday The
headquarters will likely be closed
July /, but will more than likely be
opened again in September to get
ready for the fall campaign.

BIG CONVENTION HAS BEEN
In EVERY WAY A SUCCESS
Splendid Address Marked the Closing Day esterdayand
It Was the Busiest Day Of the Four Officers
Are Selected for Next Two Years

The second biennial convention of
the Young Peoples League of the
United Norwegian Lutheran churches
of America, after four days devoted to
o series of very interesting meetings,
reached it's elimination yesterday
when services were held at Concordia
college add day. The only respite was
the hours taken for. meals. The audi
ences were very large even at the
early communion service held at Trim
ity church in the morning, all others
were held in the auditorium of Con-
cordia college.
Perhaps the most impressive serv-
ice Of the day was the one in the
morning. The sermon, in Norwegian,
was delivered by Rev. j. B. A. Dahle of
Mcintosh, Mimi, and the Rev. c. S.
Thompson of Spokane, Wash, off1ciat-
ed at the altar. The offering, for
convention expenses amounted to 1923.
Missions was the subject for the
meetings in the afternoon. The Rev.
d. Nelson told of his experiences and
the work done in China, where he had
been for twenty years. Rev. M. ].
Stoles, missionary from Madagascar,
spoke of the social religious and po-
Utica! life of the people of that coun-
try. They have nor right of suffrage,
no freedom CT speech, and no freedom
of conscience. They have the freedom
of paying their taxes or going to
Jail. They know not what a
home is and children born on I'M
lucky days are thrown to wild beasts.
The devil dance, devil idolatry and
drink are the hindrance to education
and religion. But despite the con-
ditions a great advance has been made
in the up-lift of the people and con-
ditions are getting more encouraging.

AN INSURGENT
TRICK ON JUDGES
DESPERATE EFFORT TO CATCH
POPULAR FAVOR BY ISSUING
DIFFERENT TICKETS IN DIFF
FERENT PARTS OF THE STATE
TO CATCH VOTERS.

One of the most nefarious tricks that
has taken place thus far in the cam
paign, and emanating from the in
surgent headquarters, is that played
upon the candidates for nomination as
judges of the supreme COURT 1t is
that of placing the judges name for
the particular district in which he lives
at the head of ticket and circulating
1T in order to get votes for the
Marshall Gronna- Lauder combination.
When this was discovered by the can
didates for judicial honors the ques-
ton arose as to whom the judges were
indebted for this apparent endorse
ment of the insurgents. Some CORE
spondence between a couple OF these
candidates for judges brought out the
fact that this game was being worked
in each one of the judicial districts
throughout the state. On inquiry of
the insurgency as to the cause of it,
1t is alleged their headquarters dis
claimed any knowledge Of the act, but
with the Marshall Gronna- Lauder
Buchanan name at the head of the
ticket the candidates discovered that
1t was not far-fetched conclusion to
see that it was one of the insurgents
tricks.
One of the candidates for judicial
honors called at the republican head
quarters in Fargo and wished to ascer-
tain If the scheme had emanated from
that place. And it was assured that
1t did not come from there, nor would
they countenance such an act.
The campaign conducted by the re-
publicans this year has been such as
would only appeal to the best interests
of the people and the most intelligent
class, and it has been characterized by
its dignified, public spirited broad
minded methods. The republicans
throughout the state cannot and will
not countenance, such acts as above
mentioned. On Wednesday, June 20,
the registration of their votes for the
various candidates will be the most
emphatic reputation of this political
jugglery that can be brought forth.

Minneapolis, June 27.-I made a run

crop, but travelling men and train men

quent~ expression to the general feel
ing of satisfaction with the work of
the convention. The work had been
well done and he was sure it would
prove valuable, effective and stimu-
lating for all that was high and noble.
He sincerely thanked the local COM
mittee and the people of Moorhead for
all they had done to make the stay of
the delegates in the city enjoyable
With marked earnestness the presi-
dent impressed upon the hearts of
the young people that they should
treasure and make use of tho inspira-
tions, the knowledge. and the visions
that have come to them during the ten
sessions Of the convention. The latter
had proven to be a most satisfactory
and inspiring gathering which he knew
would leave its impress and Moorhead
and Fargo are held in high esteem and
will be remembered with thankfulness
and the fullest measure of pleasure by
