MANDAN, April 25 Especial tc
Tribune)-an enthusiastic meeting o.
the Morton County Development league
was held at the Commercial club rooms
last night, the first held after organ
ization. Resides large percentage OF
the county members, there were many
visitors from Oliver, Mercer and Nc
Lean counties, all of whom were en-
route to Bismarck to attend the Real
Estate Mems rally
At the opening of the session several
of the attendants spoke few words
on the necessity of getting the organi-
zation on its feet and running it in
! good shape now, that farmers may be
induced to raise products suitable for
foreign exhibition. Mayor Tschida, Of
Glen Ullin, c. L. Zimmerman, treasur-
er of the Slope and County leagues, E.
"A. Tostevin of the Mandan Pioneer,
Clair Cornell of Leith, H. Hallenberg
of Carson, L. N. Cary of this city, and
several others spoke very optimistical-
>ly upon the possibilities of the league,
and the untold good which it will do
The matter of electing directors for
LlC o1VpC league SdlAC ups dS ~ was AC'
Gently voted by that league that every
slope county be entitled to one director
for every 5000 inhabitants. Morton has
$4,000 inhabitants and had one director,
so the election Of seven more was neces.
sary. A committee of five, with C. L.
Zimmerman chairman, was appointed to
nominate directors. They reported as
follows: NJ. Tschida, Of Glen Ullin, C..
F. Peterson of New Salem, Eugene
Weigel of Hebron, N E. Becklund of
-A!mont, Wm.. He'll of He'll, Clair Cor
nell of Leith and L. N. Carey of this
CITY. Their report was accepted and
those gentlemen elected directors
Chas. F. Ellis is the eighth director
from this county.
The matter Of offering prizes for
farm products came up and was dis
cussed at length, but final decision was
left to some future date, though the
general sense of the meeting was that
farmers can be stimulated to unusual
effort in raising prize vegetables and
grain in other ways than offering
prizes If they believe due publicity
will be given, the honor is sufficient in
centive.
The meeting adjourned about 9:30,
to meet again at the call of the execu-
tive committee, probably in two weeks.
