A motion to quash the indictment
was made by Attorney Isaac Ferguson.
1t was formally overruled by Judge

that the same arguments will be con-
sidered later.
The motion to quash was made on
the grounds that the indictment
charges no specific utterances, publica-
tons, or names no specific organiza-
ton alleged TO be seditious.
Similar to Pittsburgh Cases.
The indictment is similar to that in
the Pittsburgh and Farrell cases which
are still under advisement in the
courts. The case has attracted widest
attention locally.
Jurors Selected.
The following jurors have been sci.
Iected; Nellie Gilmore, young girl
clerk in florists shop; James A. Will
liams, farmer; George Bowman, in
surance agent; John Bean, country
store keeper Irene Golden, public
school teacher; Frank ]. Holland

school janitor.
Fear Trade Union Questioning.
The attempt of the defense to ques
ton prospective jurors on their views
on trade unionism and strikes was no
permitted by the judge. William vii
son, 20 year old painter and decorator
was challenged by the prosecution be
cause he had heard one or two speech
es on socialism.

ADMINISTRATOR Pressure.

The administration, under the ac-

culture Jardine, is staging grand
final drive to get a favorable vote in
the senate on the Fess bill. Rebel
lious republicans from the middle
west were showered today with tele-

stand by the president" Most of the
kilograms and messages came from
members of the national committee
and state chairinen, chambers of com
merce and banks, and other sources
usually quick to respond to admins
tration pressure exerted from WASH
ington. Offsetting these messages
were others, from farm organizations
that backed the unsuccessful fight for
the McNary- Haugen bill, urging them
to stand firm against "all halfway
measures"

ternal republican row, and both repub-

Close Vote.
The vote on the Fess bill, late to-
day or tomorrow, is expected to be
close. The insurgent republicans, led
by such ordinarily conservatives as
Watson or Indiana and McNary Of
Oregon, believe they will win. 1t is
claimed that IS republican votes are
assured against the presidents pro-
gram, as well as so democratic votes.
If these figures are borne out, the
