m. length OF the season and the opening
,,,s were among several matters settled
hare on snday by John Heydler and Ban
Iohnson. presidents Of the two major
leagues.
At the recent American League meet
M in Chicago a tentative opening date
0, May / was suggested. This. however.
vas a little later man most of the
National League clubs cared to start.
BESIDES Johnson's original idea for a
shorter schedule was 70 reduce the num-

sections on the three big holidays

VIII Meet Minor Leagues.
At their conference Heydler and John
nn also decided to invite committee
from the minor leagues to meet commit
ices from the National and American
leagues during the Joint meeting to be
held here on January lS.
The major leagues first will hold their
joint meeting on this date. when the
minor league question will be taken ur
along with others. Each league then
will appoint a committee to meet the
minors in a meeting which will be held
Immediately afterward.
The Heydler-Johnson Capitalization was
tha first Official conference held by the
presidents OF the two major leagues in
nearly a year. Relations between John
son and former President Tener of the
National League were not very cordia
for some time before the latter resigned
from his office.
The meeting was very harmonious. ao-
eordlng to Heydier, and many things fol
the future welfare of the game were VI
for discussion. Unquestionably the fu
lure OF the National Commission wal
one Of the leading matters taken up. ant
II lie said II was adjusted. The final set
tement of this question was left for the
big league conference.
While Il was known that johnson wal
IN New York late last week 1t was be-
lieved he was here In his effort to swing
the deal by which former Governor Walsh
and other prominent Bostonians will buy
the Red Sox. This may have been John
sons real mission in the East, and he
selected IL as a good time to talk impor-
tant baseball matters over with the new
head OF the National League. johnson
yesterday returned to Chicago.
The schedule committee Of the Ma.
tlenal League. consisting of Heydler and
Barney Dreyfuss. president of the Pitts
burg club. will meet with Johnson In
French Lick. Ind, on January 3 to draft
the schedules.

VOTE In GERMAN
COMMUNITIES OF
STATE HELD Big.
FACTOR In FIGHT
Frazier Weak Two Years
Ago, May Show Strength
There This Year

Bismarck, N. D., June 25.-The
| North Dakota campaign is CLOSING
with both factions in the principal
contest-Steen versus ,F'razier-eX-
pressing confidence. Steen mana
gers are claiming the state by 10000;
Nonpartisan league chiefs are rely
ing upon their membership to stick
and give Frazier the nomination by
5000 to 10000 votes. Disinterested
observers are of the opinion that the
margin one way or another will not
exceed 5000 votes.
THE German vote will be a big
factor. If this vote, as a whole, is
strictly American and loyal, it prob
ably will be distributed as it was two
years ago, when it was divided fairly
evenly between Frazier and his op-
ponents. If the Independent Voters
associations and other league op-
ponents have succeeded in convinc-
ing the people that the leadership OF
the league is disloyal, and If a gen.
orally antagonistic spirit to the war
prevails in the strictly German COM
munities, Frazier may be expected
to receive a large vote there. The
Iague has been accused of seeking
this German vote, and at least one
speaker is alleged to have stated in
his German addresses that if league
is retained in power the teaching Of
German in the schools and other con-
cessions which have been made Ger
man people in this state would be
continued, while if Steen was elected,
a ban would be put on everything
German. Such an appeal, Of course,
is unjust to both factions, and it
would seem very bad politics to in
ject this element into a campaign
where plain Americanism should be
the only issue"
Vote Two Years Ago.
In the primaries two years ago,
Mcintosh county, one of the strong
est German counties in the state,
gave Frazier only 113 votes, while his
three opponents polled 9O8. Logan,
another county with a large propor-
ton Of Germans, gave Frazier but
276 votes, while the opposition re-
ceived 469. Mercer, one OF the big

ponents' $50. Frazier got a big ma.
jority In Oliver county, 312 against

slope, and this vote did not repre-
sent any decided German bent fol
Frazier at that time Sheridan, whose
population is largely German, cast
COL votes against Frazier and only
337 for him. ,. -..
Frazier carried Morton, 1895 to
1851, and Burleigh 1105 to 1861, but
it was because the league was well
organized in these counties, and not
because the German vote went to the
league. VI ,.
The league has been active in these
German counties during the last
two years, and the war has injected
new issues into North Dakota poll
tics. A strong majority for Frazier
in these counties might indicate one
Of several things: That league
economic policies have won new ad-
herents there; that the league stand
on the war has appealed to the Gere
mans; that the German vote in these
counties registers disapproval Of the
attitude Of the national administra-
ton; that the German vote is not
loyal. It would not be fair however,
to say, merely because the league
might show Increased strength in
these counties, that it was an evil
lence Of disloyalty or pro German
ism on the part Of either the league
or Of the counties concerned. 1t is a
situation which embraces many in
teresting possibilities.
, Strong PartisanshIp.
Partisanship is clear cut on both
sides. No primary election in the
history of North Dakota has been
by more intense feeling.
The league has damaged it's cause
by bringing into the state soap box
agitatops Of the Mills, Bowen and
Coulter type. It's gravest mistake Of
all was the importation Of Lindbergh,
who finally was called off, after re-
ceiving a cool reception at several
Slope points. League papers gave no
publicity to his tour in this state,
following his Overwhelming defeat in
Minnesota, and desire was shown
to have him forgotten. Burnquist's
coming is expected to greatly
strengthen the Independent Voters
association. Among the Ioyalist ele-
ment, Burnquist is hero just now,
and he unquestionably will win votes
for Steen and his teammates.
John L. George is expected to give
Carl Kositzky a hot race. The Bis
marck commercial traveller is known
and liked throughout the state, anl
he has put up a. clean, gentlemanly
campaign, which has won him new
friends. Kosttzky has gone out Of his
way to antagonize the entire, COM

Re0bens Whole
Irish Question
(By Associated Press.>

London, June 25.-An important
debate was opened IN the house OF
commons today by Sir Edward Car
son, the Ulster leader who, in ac-
cordance with previous arrange
ment raised the whole question OF
the governments policy in Ireland
with special reference to the recent
proclamation Of the lord lieutenant
and the recruiting movement.
The occasion had been awaited
with much interest as it was known
that Edward Short would make his
first speech as chief secretary for
Ireland, while 1t was also expected
generally that Premier Lloyd George
would have an important declara-
ton regarding home rule and con-
scription.
Anticipation that the Irish ma
tionansts would avail themselves of
the occasion and return to West
minister after an absence Of several
weeks, was not fulfilled and the de-
bate lacked some interest on that
account.

Ammunition Is
Seized In Dublin
(Ry Associated Press. !

London, June 25.-The seizure o.
10000 rounds Of ammunition in the
smithfeld market in Dublin yester-
day is expected to have develop
ments according to the Dublin cor
respondent Of The Daily Mail. who
says the seizure was an incident at
tempting to smuggle arms and am
munition into Ireland on a large
scale.
The first discovery Of the affair
seems to have made by the police at
Belfast where a ship whose name is
not div1llged, arrived the latter part
of last week bringing a miscellan-
eous cargo among which contra
brand was cleverly distributed. The
contrabrand goods were consigned
to various parts Of the country. An
investigation is proceeding to dis
cover how much of it reached its
destination.
1t is understood that in addition
to the seizure. at Dublin, 5000
cartridges were found in Belfast
and~ether parcels in Dungannon. and
Portadown. The Dublin consign-
ment was hidden in sacks Of oats.
