MAY WEAR MEXICALI
BASEBALL UNIFORM

Dispatches by the Associated Press
from Chicago today states that privat
information has been received there
that several of the men indicted in con-
nection with the 1919 baseball scandal
had fled to Mexico and that an appeal
would be made to Washington in hope
that some way might be found to eX-
tradite them.
While the officials there refused to
divulge the names of the men they
believed had left the country, it is said
that Buck Weaver, Claude Williams,
Joe jackson and Carl Fork had given
bond for their appearance, and the
attorneys for the otner players said
they could produce their clients within
18 hours.
In this connection a reporter for
The Press was informed in Mexicali
Sunday two weeks ago, that when the
champion MeXicali team went to Mex
leo to play ball games there, they
would have on their list one or more
big ball players from the United
States, and that one or two other
Mexican teams would also be supplied
with big league players. No attention
was paid to the statement as it was
regarded as purely press agent
stunt.

RECALLCASE TO
co BEFORE The
SUPREME COURT
Provision in Constitution is
Basis of Case From En-
mons County.

Bismarck, N. D.. March 9.-Whether
or not the recall provisions of the con-
stitution applies to lesser subdivisions
than counties. is to be decided by the
supreme court.
The case was brought to the court
from Emmons county, on appeal from
the decision of Judge McKenna,t who
granted an injunction against the
county auditor, who had set an cleo
for March Is. The hearing was ad-
vanced in the supreme court because
of the nearness of the election date.
Attorneys for Frank Goughnour,
the commissioner sought to be re-
called. pointed to the constitutional
provision which provides voters may
petition for the recall of any elective
congressional, state, county, judicial
or legislative officer"
They argue that under this pro-
vision subdivisions less than counties
sioners are elected by districts, could
not be included. . If the recall should
be legal, they further contend, it
would require a petition Of 80 per cent
of the voters Of the entire county to
obtain the election, and not merely
so per cent Of the voters Of the dis
trict.
Attorney G.. w. Lynn, representing
the side of the Nonpartisans in EN-
mon county seeking the recall. holds
that the Office of commissioner is
purely a county officer and entirely
within the scope of the recall pro-
visions.
One recall election already has been
held in Dunn county in which Non
partisans recalled a county commits

Quebec Proposition
Would Save Money On
Western Canadian Wheat

Winnipeg, Mans March s.-The
government Of Quebec province has
made a proposal to the Canadian gov
eminent that it is willing to lease the
National Transcontinental railway,
which runs in a direct line from
Winnipeg to Quebec city. in order that
the grain of the west be diverted to
the port of Quebec. If that is done
the farmers will be saved Is cents a
bushels on their product, compared
to the freight rate now in force from
the prairies to the sea.
Frank o. Fowler, manager of the
Winnipeg Grain exchange, heartily
endorses the proposition. He said
II the city Of Quebec's lack of
elevators at the present time could
be remedied in a few seasons, the
port could soon have the best Of IA
cilities for handling a large quantity
Of grain and by shipping through the
port of Quebec ocean navigation would
be prolonged six weeks. compared to
the Montreal route. The railway "a
built as a grain. route at.,a cost to
the Canadian, people of 100 .0eo, 900,
but. no grain Or flour RAJ shipped over
the route during the period of the
war.
; In the opinion Of other members Of
the Winnipeg Grain exchange the
project is feasible and it would lower
the lake and rail tariff.
