: Solemnly charged to keep the National
Administration out of the scattered war
zones Of local politics. the flying squad
ron Of Cabinet office campaisners has
been warned by the Democratic Con-

The question of Statewide prohibition
Is kicking up tremendous Juror In

campaign managers became excited.
They insisted that these two ardent

SEVERAL PLANS
ARE SUGGESTED
No Definite Action is Taken,
However-Another Meet
ing to be Held.

At a meeting of the directors Of the
Grand Forks Baseball association last
night. the~question of whether or not
the city shall be represented in the
league next year was discussed.
Definite action was postponed. An
other meeting will be held September
9, when further plans will be consid-
cred.
The concensus Of opinion is that the
club retain its franchise. Several be-
lieve, however, that too much money
has been lost to warrant another
years experience, but, for the most
part, the sentiment is in favor Of rails
ing money enough to continue.
This. has been an unusually hard
baseball year throughout the country.
Not one Of the major leagues has had
a successful financial season and
minor leagues in various sections have
"blown-up" because Of a lack Of pat
ronage.
So far as Grand Forks is concern
ed. the team played in ill-luck
throughout the season. At the open
ing, when the team was winning reg
ularly, the weather was poor, and,
then. when the long slump came, ex-
cellent weather was experienced. The
result was poor crowds. Then, on
their return. the weather was too cold
for baseball. and, even though they
were fighting for third place, the fans
did not turn out.
On the other hand, the season has
had several results that will be bene-
ficial for next year. Altman was sold
to the White Sox. and. even though he
Is not retained after May 10, 1915. the
club gets $500 for him. If the White
Sox do not keep him. he will be sold
to the Western league. the American
association or some other higher class
team. Donley, Peters and Larson
each have been sold to the St. Paul
club, and there is every reason to he
lieve that the local management will
rean financial gain.
The fact that practically a new
team had to he organized this spring
made 1t dou'bly hard financially. The
club now has nucleus for winning
team next year, and the difficulty Of
organizing and starting the season
would not be nearly so great.
Several plans for hand!ing the stu
alton have been hroached. but nothing
definite was decided. They will be in :
vestigated and considered further at
future meeting.
