DEEP WATER WAY

NORTH DAKOTA
Duluth Man Consults With
Governor and Explains
Advantages Of Route,

Bismarck, N. d, Oct. z5-Assured
by Governor Frazier, n Of the elev-
EN- state executives who occupy the
posts Of honorary vice presidents Of
the Great Lakes-St. Lawrence Tidewa-
ter association, that tho deep water
way campaign of this organization
would receive his hearty support, q.
P. Craig Of Duluth, vice president
and executive director of the associa-
ton, proceeded on his way westward
last night, intending to make his next
address the chamber Of commerce.
Mr.. Craig came to Bismarck espe-
cially for an interview with Governor
Frazier, and prior to his departure
last night the deep waterway worker
declared that he was we'll satisfied
with results here.
Eleven states, said Mr.. Craig, have
associated themselves for the purpose
OF improving the st. Lawrence river
sells. Member states are Ohio, Indi-
ana, Illinois, Michigan, Wisconsin.
Minnesota, Iowa, North Dakota and
South Dakota. Montana and Wyo-
ming. From among the representa-
tives Of these states two vice presi-
dents are selected for each common
wealth, and they with their respective
governors form the council OF states
How North Dakota Profits.
Mr.. Craig proposes that North Da-
kota be thoroughly organized and that
committees be named to carry on the
work within the state, particularly
with a view to cultivating an intelli.
gent public opinion in favor Of the
plan, whose contamination. declared
the Duluth man, will bring North
Dakota 1000 miles neare to the sea
and the great world markets. The
problem, said Mr.. Craig. is to get tc
the sea; to open the heart Of the
continent to the ocean; to add 1000
miles to the coast line of the United
States, and to reduce the distance be-
tween North Dakota and the sea b,
more than half.
National Governments Approval.
There is no government opposition
to the deep waterway plan either ir
Washington or in Ottawa, said thu
Zenith City man, and he anticipated
no concerted antagonism on the par
of the railways. According to thu
schedule Of the American expedition
ary forces, Mr.. Craig said. the pla1
could be placed in execution in on,
year, but a more efficient and eco
nomical plan would contemplate fiW,
years Of construction.
Within the eleven states associated
in this work. said Mr.. Craig, produced

NOT SURPRISING.

The action of the national commits
sion did not come In the nature OF @
very great surprise. for during the past
several weeks all clubs in big leagues
have been buying star players from
the minors, making outright purchases;
They saw the handwriting on the wall
and decided to get busy at once and
secure the best Of the talent while the
getting was good. Scouts literally
cofnbed every minor in the country and
made recommendations to their bosses.
For example, the New York Yankees
bought an entire team from one OF the
eastern minors.
The Philadelphia Athletics, through
Connie Mack, manager and part owner,
purchased the entire Atlanta team,
champions of the Southern league. Had
the clubs been permitted to draft, they
would have merely picked the cream OF
these minor teams, paid the usual draft
price and let the others go.
1t had been threatened by the majors
all along that unless they were permit-
ted to draft from the minors, they would
make il so hard on the smaller fellows
that the minors would be glad to come
back and go into the old order OF things
The minor league magnates accepted the
| challenge and threw down the gauntlet
and said Let the fight go on, we
