ganized by the railroad commission

for livestock already exceed the sup
ply.
The meeting was attended by Frank
Milhollan of the North Dakota board

are circumstances, they declare, which
combine to make the movement of the
grains this year host serious prob
lem.
Mr.. Raish said there have already
been numerous complaints in South

moving potatoes and livestock. The
needs for moving the grain are great
er than ever before, he added, be-

URGES SPECIAL
LABOR.
RATE STAY. ON
Railroads May Be Asked to
Continue 1t for at Least
Five Days
AGENT MATTER SETTLED

Application for continuation at
least for one week of the special rail-
road rate to harvest laborers coming
to North Dakota probably will be
made to railroad executives by Gov
ernor Nestos, following a report to
the Department Of Agriculture and
Labor by R. G. Catron, in charge of
the Minneapolis employment interests
of the state.
"A great many orders are coming
to US, and while the supply seems ID
be increasing and our daily average,
is higher each day, there seems to be
greater demand than supply. I sug-
gest that, if 1t is possible, the rail-
roads be asked to extend time for
$500 rate at least five days"
Governor Nestos was in St. Paul
today to attend conference on the
Northwest fuel situation. 4 =.
Cooperation between the special
federal employment agents and the
state agencies will obtain in the fu-
ture, according to statements made
following a conference by George E.
Tucker, federal agent, with Governor
Nestos and with Commissioner Of
Agriculture and Labor J. A. Kitchen,
who is director of the state federal
agency. -
Governor Nestos expressed belief
that "any difficulties which have aris-
en- have been minor, and will not
prevent cooperation between all
forces engaged in supplying harvest
labor for North Dakota"
Mr.. Kitchen said that the nine spe-
cial agents would be kept on even
if it were necessary for the state to
pay the expense, the amount of money
involved being very small, he said.
The same arrangements for handling
harvest labor will obtain until Sep
tember 1, the date on which the fed
eral officials had planned to withdraw
its special agents, he said.
Mr.. Tucker said that the government
would continue to pay seven special
agents until September l, and said
that his men were re enteringthe state
because Governor Nestos had asked
them to do so.
Tucker denied .nat he had with
drawn his agents because Of dissat-
isfaction or difficulties and asserted
that they were withdrawn because the
state apparently had an organization
sufficient to handle the harvest labc
situation. a.
Asked concerning his reported con-
troversy with John faw, county agent
leader, he asserted he had said moth
ing intended to criticise Mr.. Haw
and said the service valued the CO.
operation Of county agents highly.

Joliet, ILL.,, Aug. 10.-A meeting OF
Big Four brotherhood officials and
representatives of the Elgin, Joliet
and Eastern railway at which it is
reported action will be taken to have
the state guardsmen removed from
the vicinity of the railroad yards
where 1900 men are on strike, is
scheduled to be held today. 1t is
pointed out by the brotherhood
chiefs that their men are not on
strike but have merely walked off
their Jobs dissatisfied with the pres
ence of troops. They describe their
action as a protest against the pres
ence of the troops. &
y No statements were Forthcoming
preceding the conference.
The operation Of trains in and out
of the yards here this morning was
practically at a standstill.
No definite time has been set for
the meeting. 1t was reported it would
be held at 10 o'clock and later that
it would not be held until five this

ever, that several preliminary con-
ferences of railroad officials and
brotherhood chiefs will be held prior
to a joint conference.

SEES GROWTH
FOR BISMARCK
Population of 10000 in Five
Years Predicted

A. J. Henry of Valley City, 81
years old and a pioneer of North Da-
kota, is taking great interest in many
improvements in and about Bismarck,
especially in the new bridge. During
a trip about the city with his son,
Major Frank S. Henry, he gave close
attention to the development of Bis
marck in the last few years.
Mr.. Henry predicted Bismarck will
have a population of 10000 in the
next five years, since the new bridge
has opened, and is confident of con-
tinued growth of the city and devel-
opment of western North Dakota.
During his 40 years residence in
North Dakota Mr.. Henry always has
been an optimist.
Although four score years old he
is young in appearance, and Is still
active. He is one of the few living
members of the Grand Army of the
Republic.

(By the Associated Press)

Columbus, o., Aug. 1O-National
issues are expected to, predominant
in the state election in Ohio next
November as result Of the choice
Of gubernatorial candidates by the
voters at Tuesdays primary cleo
tion.
Carmi A. Thompson, of Cleveland,
was nominated for governor on the
Republican ticket after a campaign
conducted with the endorsement of
the Harding administration. A. v.
Donahey Of New Philadelphia, run
ming on his previous record as audi
tor of the state, was selected as the
Democratic standard bearer. Nei-
ther brought to the fore issues which
were regarded as likely to attract
widespread interest so far as state
affairs were concerned and political
leaders were freely predicting that
the results Of the November election
would hinge in a large degree upon
the opinion of the voters on national
policies. %9 H-s
While the wet and dry issue, one of
the paramount questions in the pri-
maries, was considered as definitely
disposed of in most cases through
the selection of candidates, its re-
vival was expected to be shown to
some extent in the senatorial race.
In this contest, Senator Atlee Pom
creme of Canton, opposed during the
primary campaign by the anti-Saloon
League, will face Congressman Simon
D. Fess of Yellow Springs, who re-
ceived the strong endorsemnt Of the
dry organization. Policies Of the ma
tional administration also were ex-
pected to be issues in this contest,
but it was conceded that the prohi-
bition question would be an element
to be considered seriously.

A thirty day Jail sentence for
speeding marked the session of Po.
lice Magistrate Cashman's court last
evening when large number of per-
sons were brought before him in the
police campaign against speeding au.
tomobiles.
George Korfi was arrested for
speeding on the prison road. It de-
veloped, according to police, that Kor-
Fl had taken his, employers car with
: out permission. His home is said to
be in Michigan. He had been wors.
ing at the farm of Harry Mathewson
near Menoken. Quitting his job he
said he was going to town and took
the Mathewson car, the police said.
They charged him with going 40 miles
an hour on the prison road. Mathew
son recovered his car.
More than 20 persons either were
before the judge or are to be arrested
for speeding as a result of 36
hours campaign, which, police say,
will continue.
John Hobson had an alibi which
proved to be a good one in the opi,,
ion of Judge eastman, who indicated
that about everybody who was
brought up on speeding charge
would be fined. Hobson, arrested for
speeding on the prison road, was able
to prove that he was driving to a

agreed that most anyone would speed
IN such case and dismissed the ac-
tion. ~
Mrs. Helstun of Minneapolis, a
visitor in the city, protested against
her arrest. She conducted her own
case, cross examining three police
men. The judge held with the Of
Mcers.
One case was for driving on the
left side of the street and only costs
were assessed in this case. In all
others speeding was the charge and
the tax amounted to S. fine and
1895 costs.
Chief Martineson said that viola
tions Of traffic laws, including speed
ing, cutting corners, disregard of the
right -of-way to the driver on the
right, running without lights, driving
on the wrong side Of the streets and
similar infractions all would subject
the driver to arrest in any part Of
the city.

Chicago, Aug. 10.-Threats by rail-
road brotherhood chiefs that "there
will be 100 similar cases" to the tie up
on the Elgin, Joliet and Eastern,
where engineers, firemen, conduc-
tors and trainmen refused to work
because of the presence Of troops in
the Joliet, Illinois yards, further
complicated the railway strike stu
alton today. s
Leaders of the "Big Four" who are
to take part in the Washington con-
ference Of rail union heads tomor-
row when all phases Of the strike
are due to come up before the chiefs
Of the sixteen standard railroad
unions left to the train service men
the right to decide for themselves
whether working conditions at term
inals were Questionable. Warren S.
Stone, president of the brotherhood
of locomotive engineers declared at
Cleveland the walkout of trainmen
on the E. ]. and E, "did not require
any approval"
"Our men are not required to work
under such conditions as now prevail
at many railroad terminals" he said.
II am telling them that wherever the
lives are endangered by guards they
should 60 home and stay there"
Concurs in Action
T. C. Cashen, president of the
switchmen's union of North America,
sent messages to leaders of the union
concurring in the action of the engi-
neers, firemen and trainmen.
Although railroad transportation
received this new threat to paralyzc
traffic and brotherhood engineers,
were notified by their union chiefs
that the engineers might refuse to
take out locomotives in defective
condition, they were cautioned not to
be "too technical"
Troops remained on guard at Joliet
and the E. J. and E. outer belt line
of the, Chicago district was tied in
traffic knot by the suspension Of
work by trainmen.
Disorders Fewer
Disorders in connection with the
strike as important developments ap-
preached were few and widely scat
tered. At Muskogee, Oklahoma,
Frank Barton, q new special deputy
United States marshal was knocked
unconscious by brick thrown from
an auto.
In q statement relative to the SEN
iority controversy the Pennsylvania
railroad said the loss Of seniority by
strikers would not Involve forfeiture
of accumulated pension privileges.
Seniority, the statement said, de-
pends upon continuity of employ
ment, while pensions are based on
the total years of service regardless
of whether continuosu or not.
