LABOR WILL
Be SCARCE
LACK OF MEN BEGINNING TO
CAUSE SOME WORRY AMONG
NORTH DAKOTA FARMERS

Present indications are that men are
going to be very scarce and wages high
in this part of the northwest during
harvest and threshing. Already the
railroads are beginning to complain of
their inability to secure laborers and
the situation will surely get worse in.
stead Of better as the season advances.
Crops are uniformly good all over the
northwest and there is q great deal Of
railroad construction under way and
being rushed 50 that the present crop
along the new lines can be hauled to
market. Add to this rush of work
in sll the cities and you have ideal
conditions for a. labor famine. This
country alone will need thousands Of
men to take care Of the crop and far.
mers and business men are beginning
to wonder where they are to come
from.

ed, followed by the regular organiza-
tion. The meeting was held shortly
after O'Clock there being ifty-seven

ed to seats at the gathering. Unlike

tendance Of committeeman from out

mitteemen.
The proxies were ordered stricken
out Of the report in an amendment Of
F. J. Traynor, after some remarks, in
which Mr.. Traynor contended hat the
admission Of proxy was not in keep
ing with the law. F. T. Cuthbert con
tended that Mr.. Traynor was admitted
to the convention two years ago on a
proxy from what he had been able To
learn, that most political organizations
even the National convention accept
