One Of Biggest Conventions for

Dates Of Meeting Fixed for
July 8 to 10
Secretary King Discusses the
Coming Meeting

Probably the largest convention that
will be held in this. city during the

this association are as follows:
President-John Bruegger of Willis

vice President George NJ. Pike of

Secretary-W. w. King of Fargo.
Treasurer-H. f, Schroeder of Dick

These gentlemen I1age already be-
gun the work Of getting ready for the
gathering and they expect to have a
great big time in Fargo. 81.
While 1t is little early to give an
estimate of just how many will be
here" said Mr.. King, i am convinced
from what hear over the state that
we will not have less than 500 retail
merchants of the. state present, and /
would not be at all surprised if there
would be double that number here.
With the assistance of Frank w: Clark
and the other travelling men and man
ayers of the state we succeeded in
getting the convention here at the
meeting which was held last summer
at Dickinson and we promised the
merchants the very best kind of a
time and we expect to fulfill that
promise. " t-..a

will meet in the commercial club

STRIKE
ON PLURAL
Voting
Belgians Opposed to Present
System
Socialists Demand Single Vote
to Males
Big Strike Ordered Monday
Troops Out

Brussels, April 10.-Troops occupied
much of the great industrial centers of
Belgium in preparation for the gener-
al strike ordered for Monday when
5000 to 1000 men are to quit work.
In most of the cities large crowds
gathered to watch the arrival of troops
and cheered the soldiers as they
marched.
Socialist strike leaders in various 10
calities offered to the authorities the
services of special constables drawn
from their own ranks to aid in pre-
serving order. They affirm any out
break of violence will delay their cause
for half generation.
The strike Is an attack on the pres
ent system of plural voting in Belgium
whereby citizens have one, two or
three votes according to their station
in life. The strikers demand each male
citizen shall have only one vote.
Under the present system every cit
izen over 25 has one vote. Over 35

vote, as also the citizen over % own

MINNESOTANS WILL
OPPOSE FREE FLOUR
JUDGE SMITH TO LEAD ATTACK
. ON PROVISION IN NEW
TARIFF MEASURE.

Washington, April 1O.-A concerted
attempt will be made by the Mime
sofa republican members of the house
to change the provision in the Under
wood tariff bill, which takes the duty
of 25 cents a barrel off flour and plac-
es it on the free list, with a proviso
that a 10-cent duty shall be levied on
-four coming from countries imposing
a duty on the American product.
Judge George r. Smith of Minneap-
oils is preparing to lead this attack.
In anticipation of the debate, Judge
Smith Is making an exhaustive study
of the subject. His first discovery was
that Canada could remove the present
duty of 60 cents a barrel without
much trouble. All that need be done
under the Canadian tariff law. is for
the governor, in council. TO take the
necessary action, and there will be
flood of Canadian -four into the east
ern part OF the United States. practic-
ally shutting out the product of the
Minneapolis mills.
I'VE may not be able to secure an
amendment Of the bill" said Judge
Smith today, but We can at least
arouse the public, which can be de-
pended upon to exert pressure upon
the senate to secure fair treatment for
the American millers."
It became known today that Rep.
Sidney Anderson, who has been
selected for membership on the
ways and means committee, may not
subscribe to the minority report tariff
bill to be presented by Representative
Payne OF New York. Mr.. Anderson
was opposed to the Payne bill, and has
declared that he cannot subscribe to
any Endorsement of that measure.
Therefore he may file brief minority
report in which he viii state in his
own way his objections to the Under
wood bill. Mr.. Anderson has been
studying the provisions of the Under
wood measure and says that there is
evidence of several "woodchuclks" In
the Underwood bill which he will ex.
pose when the bill comes UP for con-
sideration in the house.

n. D. man INVENTS
.. auto STARTER

Langford. NJ. d, April 1O.--win
Dammann has returned from the east
where he and A. /. Sandbo have been
busiIy engaged in getting the sandbo
auto starter manufactured and ready
for the market.
The Sandbo starter bids fair to rev.
olutionize this part of the automobile
industry. 1t is so simple and yet so
potent that anyone who owns an auto
that starts with a crank will feel
obliged to buy one.
Mr.. Dammann brought one of the
finished starters home with him and
attached it to his Ford auto, and it
works like charm. Julius Berg, who
is using one of the crude ones on
his Overland, and would not be with
out it, as he says that when he used
the crank there were times that the
engine would not start, but with the
Sandbo starter the engine always
starts, If it is in condition to start at
all. ..-
A wheel is fitted to the crank and
crank shaft Of the auto. and a wire
cable runs from this wheel in under
the hood of the car to the inside Of
the dashboard and all a person has
to do is to turn on the spark and gas
oline and give the cable a few pulls
and the deed is done. No electricity
is used in the procedure at all, and
the device is fool-proof.
The Sandbo Starter Co. has been
organized and the product will be
pushed to the limit. We understand
that the device only costs SIS, and
on account of the low price any auto
owner can afford one OF them.

IFranklin Roosevelt Expresses
Wilson'S Views
Declaration Greeted With En-
thusiaSm

Washington, April 10.--An efficient
navy, large and powerful enough to
maintain the nations prestige, is the
policy of the new administration as
outlined to the navy league of the
United States in it's eighth annual
convention by Franklin d. Roosevelt,
assistant secretary of the navy. His
statement is regarded as rejecting the
views of Secretary Daniels and the
White House and created enthusiasm.
Mr.. Roosevelt asked the members of
the league to aid in popularizing the
naval establishment and dwelt upon
the support needed for the secretary
OF the navy and the administration of
the naval policy.
"This is not a question of war or
peace" he said. II take 1T there are.
ais many advocates of arbitration and
international peace in the army as in
any other profession, but we are con-
fronted with a condition, and the fact
that out nation decided in the past to
have a fleet shows that war is still
possibility"
He said the service is being develop
ed with the intention of making it a
factor for. the national good.

Granville, N. D., April 10.-Pouring
kerosene on live Goals came near
proving fatal to Gilmore Hunter. a
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Frank
Hunter in this city. Mrs. Hunter was
away at the time and a number of
Elinore's girl friends had gathered at
her home after school to make candy.
The fire in the kitchen stove became
low and Gilmore tried to start 1t by
pouring Kerosene on the live Ignite
Goals with the result that the gas
exploded. She was quite badly burned
on the right arm and cheek. AL
though not at all dangerous, the burns
are very painful and 1t will probably
be some time before Gilmore attempts
to start fire with kerosene again.

Jacques Worth, the Paris tailor,
who for a generation has been
considered at least one of the two
or three great authorities on wo-
mems clothes, has surprised New
York by announcing he believes
the American woman Is the best
dressed woman In the world. He
may have said it with an eye to
future business, but he said it.
THE exceedingly effective ap-
pearance of the American woman
is due to perfectly natural causes
he explained But one cause is
physical, another mental and a
third economic. The tout ensemble
of the American woman depends
partly on her glorious figure, partly
on her excellent artistic sense, and
partly on her well-filled pocket
book.
Fortunately our women are TAX
ing up golf. ] believe that game Is
excellent for the preservation of
the youthful figure. All exercise
is, of course, beneficial. Let the
American woman continue to lead
her splendid active life If she
would retain the figure which
makes her JOY to her dressmak-
er.
Her long, supple. family accen-
tuated curves are particularly well
adapted to the present styles. But
the American woman will not wear
a style which does not become her.
And here again she vindicates her
title to supremacy i'm the world Of
dress by her good sense and her
independence"
