The election in Knlrttc county Tues
day for county officers and a temporary
location for the county seat was the eli
max of a red hot campaign. in which
the entire population-wl,itcs, breeds
and Indians-was interested, and from
the reports received it would seem that
every mothers son Of them cast bal
lot. The Turtle Mountain Times issued
an extra as an expression of it's exulta-
ton. 1t says:
Our vote was Unexpectedly large,
every elector in the precinct seeming to
make it point to cast his ballot. There
was considerable scratching on candi
dates, but almost every vote cast was for
Dunseith, and all estimates place the
vote at considerably more than 400,
possibly even as high as 500. At ali
events it is enough to give us the county
seat, and leave us a good wide margin,
too. TO this Island Lake adds her quota
of "a votes, making assurance doubly
sure.
Two hundred votes had been polled
at St. John at ~ o'clock Tuesday, when
the mail messenger left. Dunseith has
carried the day without doubt.
