Smith Of Rochester, N. Y, Of the No
bles of the Mystic Shrine of North
America, is the guest of El Zagal
temple of the Shrine and Of the city
Of Fargo today.
This is the first official visitation of
the new imperial potentate since he
took his office in Atlanta a few weeks
ago. The local temple and the city Of
Fargo should feel highly compliment
ed to be so designated, particularly as
the st. Paul Shriners were determined
to have Imperial Potentate Smith as
their guest in the sanity city on this
date. Due to the influence of former
Imperial Potentate Treat and others
prominent in the Shrine. the new ex-
ecutive decided to make Fargo his
first visit.
The new imperial potentate arrived
in the city early this morning and
is at the Gardner hotel. AS soon as

from Illustrious Potentate stone, form
er Illustrious Potentate Baldwin. for
mer Illustrious Potentate Sarles of
HillsbOro, former governor Of North
Dakota, Sovereign Inspector General
Plumley, Grand Secretary Stockwell,
Grand Master Williamson of Lisbon
and other prominent Masons of the
city and state.
Taken Auto Drive.
During the morning Mr.. Smith was
taken on an extensive automobile
oft Of To
Moorhead, through the parks and riv-
erside bouleVards.
On this pleasure excursion We're
former Imperial Potentate Treat, H.
lustrious POtentate Stone and Sover-
eign Inspector General Plumley.
Although the day was not particu-
larly ideal from a weather stand
point, the city''s guest enjoyed his
drive immensely and thought Fargo
and Moorhead were cities of most at
tractive appearance, thrift and enter
prise.
Escorted to Temple.
This afternoon at o'clock I'm
perial Potentate Smith was escorted
from the Gardner hotel to the Ma
sonic temple by a special escort of
Shriners.
The early work of the Shrine began
after an informal reception at the
temple Where MT. Smith met all the
Shriners of Fargo and the candidates
who are going to travel over the
sands of the desert tonight.

monial will take place and from then

those who work.
1t goes into strange places. 1t is
looking at flop" houses, not Iedgers;
at grading camps and dirt ofbeds and
cheap mess tents, not at figures.
Instead of figures, the Industrial
Commission has started to paint
few word pictures. An impression
istic thing has just been put together
on that little affair out in California
known as the hop pickers' riot"
What was that? Why was that?
What does it mean to society? What
is the disease of which that was a
symptom?
This investigator tells some whole
some truths about that little hop
pickers' affair and the l. w. WIS
activities in California.
The hop-picking camp in question
contained at the time of the trouble
some 5000 men and women, of whom
only 100 carried l. w. w. cards, while
seven or eight hundred were hoboes
quite ready for the doctrines of revo-
luton.
Says the report:
''At least one-half the campers
were absolutely destitute, and those
who worked were forced to cash in
their checks each evening to feed tent
companions. A great number had no
blankets and slept on piles of straw
thrown onto the tent floors. One
group of forty-five men, women and
children slept packed closely on sin
gle pile of straw
Wages were paid at the rate of
81 per 100 pounds of hops picked.
Five or ten cents of this was withheld
to be paid as bonus to those who
stayed out the season. There is some
reason to believe that the owner was
very conscious that conditions on his
ranch made it improbable that many
would stay the season out, and it has
been calculated that forfeitures ac-
cruing to him were probably $100
daily"

MINORS MOVE FOR PROTECTION
American Association May Adopt
American Leagues System.

CHICAGO, April 11.-American Associa-
ton club owners discussed ways and
means for putting the league on a more
solid basis at an unannounced meeting

templates placing the league beyond the
power of an individual member, similar
to the organization Of the American
League during its fight against the Ma
tional League and when 1t was struggling
for an equal voice in the government Of
base bali.
Such a scheme involves the placing Of
a majority of the stock Of each club, all
ground leases and property rights in the
hands Of a trustee. The American League
gave sole authority to President johnson.
Whether the association will bestow the
same power on President Chivington
could not be learned.

the plan before its completion. The trans
fer Of the franchise from Toledo TO

age person" After continued and vain
attempts to put an end to promiscuous
betting on horse races, which involves
a sum yearly estimated at between $780,
100000 and $780, 100000. they have de-

to secure for the state a percentage of
this sum. A measure to this end has

fective in time for the Baden-Baden
races next August.
Heretofore the only form of betting
sanctioned by law has been by means of
the par.-mutuel machine. This, how
ever was available only to persons able
to visit the racetracks. The result Is
