ing at Stanstead Big
Success

The progressive management of
the Stanstead Driving club staged
the midsummer races Saturday,
and have good reason to feel
proud of the meeting.
The contests were clean and the
spectators were evidently pleased
to part with the coin that helped
the management pay for the car
load of oats given away in prizes.
In looking over the crowd of
faces familiar to the reporter 10
years ago, ne readily recognized
many that attended when Stan
stead driving park enjoyed such
popularity and where so many
good horses were raced.
The many olher attractions ad-
vertised kept many of the young
men and ladies away. However,
there were many present from
near by towns.

the striking shopmen's organiza-
tions, that they would support his
proposals for immediate ending of
the strike These assurances were
understood to be the basis of the
presidents hope Of the successful
termination of his arbitration eff
forts.
They have been the subjects of
discussion, 1t was reported, be-
tween the president and his imme-
diate advisers, including some
members of The Senate. The
president has been told, it was said
that Mr. Jewell, would in the
union conference to be held to-
morrow at Chicago give his en-
dorsement to the settlement pro-
poSal.
CHICAGO, July 31-Strike lead
ers were arriving this morning
from all parts of the country to
attend the meeting called by Pres
ident Harding to consider a plan
for a settlement of the shop
crafts strike and hopes are ex-
pressed that the men would be
back at work before the end of
the week.
Union leaders expressed the be-
lief that the Presidents plan
would be finally accepted, but only
after bitter struggle, based on
the refusal of many railroads to
consent to the restoration of sem
iority privileges.
A member of the United States
Labor Board said today that the
seniority issue was not as formid-
able as appeared at first sight. He
asserted that a satisfactory solu-
ton of the difficulty which would
wholly protect the rights of the
strikers and the new men, dealing
full justice to the men who re-
mained at work and had helped
keep the commerce of the nation
moving, would be found.
NEW YORK, July 31-With 148
railroad executives arriving here
for the conferences called by Pres
ident Harding for tomorrow, in
terests of both sides centered to-
day on the report from Chicago
that an agreement had been reach
ed between the striking shopmen
and the roads. The report also
said that tomorrow's meetings
both here and in Chicago, where
the leaders are meeting, are to
take formal action on their confer
ence with the President.

of every community that hopes to benefit by tour
is trade is to that it's resorts attractive, so
that those who come to them will feel like coming
again and urging others to come. It's next duty is
to do all it can for good roads, not only for it's To-
cal roads but for the larger highways Of which they
may be part. .s snaE#
For instance, Duluth is doing good deal for
the Theodore Roosevelt International Highway,
for two reasons: First because this highway will
bring tourists to Northern Minnesota; second, be-
cause the highway association is doing lot of val
liable advertising for Northern Minnesota When
Duluth does this, it is only making sound invest

along the T. r. highway can and should: do the
same. We assume that Bemidji is doing it's share
in this and other work to make touring in Northern
Minnesota attractive and to let the world know
that it is attractive. = 1-@%-l
Duluth should and will do it's full share in
these works, but it needs the help of every neigh
