RAIL EXECUTIVES
REFUSE TO SETTLE

New York, Aug. 2.-Strengthening
their non-union forces the railway in
dustry is continuing to try and break
completely the unions and the strike
Of the 100000 railroad shop men. The
executives of the 148 brotherhoods are
closed in freely on the policy of no
compromise in the restoration of the
seniority rights to the striking en-
ployees following the refusal Of the
American Association of Railroad Ex-
ecutives to accept Harding's peace
proposal. The executives quickly
turned down the proposal. The car
riers left the way open for compro-
mise on two other points in Harding g's
proposal. The recognition Of the vail
dity Of the United States Railroad
Labor Board decisions and the with
drawal of the suits growing out of
the strike. The strike committee of
the eastern territory today, said the
executives, have been houting the
wishes Of the President, and declared
that the stand 'for fight to the fin
ish" would be accepted gladly

BELL, INVENTOR OF
TELEPHONE, dies

Nova Scotia, Aug. BELL, inventor
of the telephone, and one Of the ma
TONS leading scientists, passed away
at his home today at the age of rs.
Mr.. Bell was born in Edinburg, Scot
land, on March 8, 1847, and was a
graduate of several European univer-
sites. He came to Canada in 1879.
He left there to settle in Boston one
year later. He concentrated his ef-
forts on the telephone while at Os-
borne and received the patent for the
telephone in 1876 and he also invented
the phonograph in connection with T.
A. Edison, Sumner and Trentor. The
invention Of the photophone was also
accredited to him. Bell has been the
recipient of many honors from uni
versities from all over the world. The
governments of France and Belgium
recognized his achievements in 1914
and was awarded the medal from
Edison.

HARDING
THREATENS FORCE

Washington, D. c., Aug. 2.-Presi-
dent Harding has been advised by the
officials that the shop men will accept
the terms and was prepared to place
the responsibility for the continu alton
of the strike and it's paralyzing af-
fects on industry onto the carriers of
the country. While the railroad exc
cutives refused to accept the terms
for settlement as being opposed to the
restoration Of the seniority rights
which Harding declares should be left
unimpaired. The refusal has Ec,s
received at the White House today
and President Harding is expected to
make sharp reply, placing the blame
on the executives for any new situa-
ton that may develop in connection
with the strike of the railroads. The
President warned the executives that
he has the interchangeable right to
use force if necessary.

FRANCHISE MAY
BE TRANSFERRED

The Valley City baseball manage
ment has decided to allow the Dakota
league franchise to be transferred to
Bismarck and it is probable that the
transfer will be made today. This
acton was forced by the depleted
condition of the club treasury, pay
day being here and no money being
in the treasury to meet the payroll.
The transfer will in norway effect
the Dakota league schedule except
that Valley City at home games will
be played at Bismarck. The Valley
City club goes to Jamestown today
under the Bismarck name, will play
the three games there and will then
go to Bismarck to play twelve home
games. ,.
President J. H. Sampson wired M.
'E. Cantillon this morning to take the
club as it was impossible for the local
management to continue. Bismarck
has been anxious to obtain the fran
chise for some time and that it will
be transferred to that city is almost
certain. The expense of the team has
been too great for the local merchants
and men behind the management to
continue putting up money to make
up the deficit in the club treasury: 1t
is barely possible that if the club
had been winning one the gate re-.
ceipts would have been enough larger
to take care Of the expense but as the
team has been in the cellar position
all season they have not been draw
ing the crowds, either at home or on
the road. AS consequence it has
been necessary for the men back of
the club to put up additional money
every pay day and they did not feel
that this could be continued.

Yesterday afternoon along about
four o'clock, Levi Etzell, accompanied
by Mrs. Henry Kuder and Mrs. Fay
Kuder, with their three children, came
as close to getting seriously injured
and possibly killed as they will want
to do again. 1t seems that the party
was coming to town and Mr.. Etzell
had driven his Buick auto to the
Farmers Elevator on the north side
of the track and was coming away
from that elevator. There is very
sharp turn here and on coming to the
500 track, you can see nothing up
and down the line until you are right
on the track, and that is how Mr.. Et-
'zell got into trouble. There was an
east bound freight train switching in
the yards and the engine was push
ing several cars west just as Etzell
came up to the track and he did not
see the backing cars until he was
right close to the track. They were
coming at a good rate of speed and
Levi was cool enough to handle his
car in good shape or there would have
been different story to tell. He
quickly threw the clutch out, applied
the brakes sharply and thus succeed
ed in stopping the car so that the box
cars hit the front end and throwing
it half way around pointing west. The
front end of the car was badly smash
ed up, both front wheels, the tenders
and other parts of the car being bent
up considerably. The party luckily
escaped injury to any extent except
ing one of the ladies who in trying to
Jump out of the car hurt her foot and
was badly shaken up. 1t seems like
a miraculous escape for the party and
for that Mr.. Etzell can claim lot OF
credit by the splendid way he hand

HAIL j0ES DAMAGE IN

The Exceedingly Warm Weather Of
The Past Few Days Brought On Hail

ers In Various Sections Hereabouts

have not yet reported. The storm
also touched up part of Getchell Pra-
irie and some of the farmers in that
vicinity are losers. Minnie Lake and
Grand Prairie it was reported to us
was visited by Gee storm but so far
we have received no definite informa-
tion from those localities. Between
Oriska and Tower City, where the
storm was the most severe, many
farmers are claiming a total loss, and
it is said that the hail was lying on
the ground several inches deep in that
locality after the storm had passed
over. John Eggert Of Ashtabula
township, tells a pretty good story.
He said that lady went out to wa
gon box after the storm, gathered up
enough ice and made couple Of
patches of ice-cream with the ice
gathered from the storm. There
seems to be a vein Of humor running
thru people in spite of the hard knocks
they get through these troubles that
visit them from time to time. The
farmer has much to contend with. He
is worried from the time he plants
the seed in the ground until he gets
it in the granary, then gets little for
it, and has the fear all the time that
rust, hail, and numerous other things
may come along and gather in his
crop for him and he loses it all. It is

MARKETING PLAN
OF WHEAT GROWERS

Many inquiries have been received
at the offices of the North Dakota
Wheat Growers association in regard
to what steps members should take in
delivering their wheat. A. j. Scott,
secretary of the association recently
made the following statement in re-
gard to the matter:
"When the farmer is ready to de-
liver his wheat, he takes it to an ele-
vator with which arrangements have
been made with the association, and
if such arrangements have not been
made, he may take it to any elevator,
secure from the elevator manager a
storage receipt which will state the
gross weight; the net grade and the
weight. This ticket should also con-
tain the name Of the farmer and the
mortgages, if any. These storage
tickets can be mailed to any bank in
Grand Forks and a draft will be i'm
mediately returned for the IS to 70
percent advance, which the assocla-
ton will determine at the time Of de-
livery. Or the farmer can take this
storage ticket to local bank and
have the banker ATTACH a draft there
to and draw on the North Dakota
Wheat Growers association, through
their corresponding banks.
ut is not necessary for the farmer
to deliver all his wheat before hav-
ing such draft. This can be drawn
on a storage ticket of so or 100 bush
els or whatever the deliveries may be
at the time. The association on re-
ceipt of this storage ticket will issue
q receipt showing the amount OF
wheat and the advance that was made.
This the farmer retains as evidence
of the amount Of wheat that the farm
er has in the pool"
