Farmer Legislators Oppose Grain
Men at Convention Today.

Minneapolis, Mimi, Feb. 14-While
North Dakota's farmer legislature
today argued for the establishment
of a terminal elevator at st. Paul, a
rival of this city, the national annual
convention of the Farmers Grain
Dealers Association, which is not in
sympathy with the farmers political
movement met here for two days
session.
The Non-Partisan League, the po-
litical organization that gained COM
plete control of the North Dakota ad-
miniStration this year, never has
taken the Farmers Grain Dealers AS
ISOLATION to its bosom. Instead, the
farmers of the northwest have been
taught by the Equity Association, the
marketing force behind the Non-Par-
tisan League, that the Farmers Grian
Dealers. Association is controlled by
the Minneapolis chamber of COM
merce, against whom the wrath of
the Non-Partisan League is primarily
aimed.
Open disapproval of the elevator
men to the proposed terminal eleva-
tor plans at st. Paul, may be express
ed at the session this afternoon.
