.NOPARTY FORCES meet
Many Endorsements For Ma.
tionaI and State Officers
Are Expected

st. Paul, March 24-[By The United
Press. Forces of the national non
partisan league Of Minnesota were
gathering here today to finally plan
the campaign in which they announc-
ed year ago they would capture
Minnesota in 1920"
At the time the newly organized
Working Peoples Non partisan Poll
teal League was conl ened. The con
veptions are separate but are expect
ed to endorse a joint slate for candi-
dates for state Offices. The two bodies
are expected to operate jointly as an
independent force in the national and
state elections this year, and will not
be aligned with either Of the major
political parties. -. .-.. .......-. 49,
Both conventions are expected tC
endorse a candidate for president
vice president, senator's, aud con.
gressmen from Minnesota in the ma
tional elections. In view. of the situa-
ton in North Dakota and South Dako-
ia political observers here today pre-
dicted the bodies would endorse U. s
Senator Hiram Johnson for president
At the same time hackers of other
presidential candidates are making a
bid for farmer labor support but out
side the nonpartisan league alliance
Various DELEGATIONS in both conyen-
lions today were expected to put ny
fights for endorsement of Herbert
Hoover and possibly Frank o. Low
den. Because of the endorsement OF
Mai Gen., Leonard Wood by the re-
publican administration in Minnesota
neither OF the conventions was ex-
pected to take action regarding his
candidacy. .s ,- 49,
Several candidates have been men-
toned for possible endorsement OF
the two nom partisan organizations
for governor. Several leaders early to-
day predicted the endorsement would
go to Willis Mason West. former
head of the history department Of the
university of Minnesota who has been
farming near Grand Rapids, for many
years. Ky --l.a H -,
