Nonpartisan league leaders and
workers flocked to Bismarck from
the four corners of the state today
for the convention, which will follow
the end of the legislative session to-
night.
Many of them brought ideas of va
rious sorts for action at this meet
ing of the Nonpartisans.
Among the foremost questions ex-
pected to be decided was whether
or not practical autonomy would
again be demanded for the Nonpar-
tisan league of North Dakota, with
only nominal connection with the
National NonpartVsan League and
payment of only a small part of -he
dues collected in the state to the
national organization.
A. c. Townlcy, national organizer
for the league, still holds contract
to organize in North Dakota. Whc-
ther any steps will be taken looking
toward the abrogation of this con-
tract was one Of the questions cx-
pcctcd to be brought up. Some sug-
gestions were that it be continued
with the understanding that Mr..
