Outside the County,

The hot fight in Burleigh county is
sad to have resulted in the election of
one independent and one straight repub-
lican to the lower house. Senator Lit
tie, who was on both tickets, had, of
course, no opposition. The election was
exciting, but no bad blood was exhibited
Both sides kept good order and good
humor, although in the early part OF the
day it was feared it might be otherwise.
It is not known how the vote stands in
the 22d election district, consisting of
Foster, Wells and Eddy counties. The
probabilities are that one, and possibly
two, democrats are elected. II this IS
true, it will give Dave Wellman q close
race. In LaMoure county Mr.. K1nter,
the democrat, is elected by a considera-
ble majority over Mr.. Diesem. The
straight republican legislative ticket is
said to be elected in Dickey county, and
in Barnes county Uncle John Russell,
democrat. and Frank White, brother of
e. }. White of the Russell Miller com
rany, are elected.

Married, Monday evening, at residence
of Mr.. and Mrs Henry Petty, their
daughter, Miss Bernlce, to Mr.. Chas. D.
Nichols. The ceremony was performed
at $50 by Rev. E. H. Teall and was wit
messed by thirty or forty invited guests.
Refreshments were served after the
ceremony. The young couple were the
recipients of large number of handsome
presents. The bride has for year or
two been an esteemed and capable en-
ployee of The Alert Office. and in testi-
mony Of the high regard in which she is
held ny the Office force, she was presented
with handsome silver cake basket from
the employees. The bride is we'll known
in jamestown where she has resided for
a number of years past. The groom is
son of F.. Nichols OF Pingree, one Of the
substantial farmers Of this county. The
young couple will make their future
home at Ridge Post, Tennessee, residing
upon fruit farm which was the gift of
the groom's father. They left for that
place on the 11:45 train last night.

WHO ARE " THE PE0pLE?"
Return Indicates That They
Come From Both Sides of
the House.
The Democrats Poll q Big Vote
and Elect Half of Their
Ticket.
The Republican State Ticket
Gets IL Majority in the
County.
The Election.

In the way Of weather and order Tues
day was model election day. The
main feature was the SILENT voting.
Republicans and democrats alike walked
up to the poll ana went down IN tEeir
pockets for ballots, which had been
"fxed up" at home. The returns are
not all in yet, but they are sufficiently
complete to give an idea of how it went.
The usual number of surprises is seen.
One OF them is ths legislative vote. Mr..
Lutz is undoubtedly reelected. while
the vote between Cunningham, Bu-
chanan and Kearney is close. Charley
Flint made a stronger run for treas
urer than he was expected to and leaves
the city with a good majority. Sheriff
Schmitz is undoubtedly reelected. His
city vote is larger than that Of Nc
Kechnie and Eager combined. T. e.
Branch is reelected clerk of the court,
Graves, auditor; and Ashley, register of
deeds Conklin leaves the city with a
small majority over Glaspell for states
attorney and Tom Hayes and Tredrus
Baldwin are running a close race for
county judge.
The following is the city vote in detail
Jamestown weekly alert. [volume] (Jamestown, Stutsman County, D.T. [N.D.]) 1882-1925, 1890-11-06
of the men on the republican ticket owe
their defeat TO split tickets.

A few '1rcependent" tickets made
their appearance around the polls. They
did not have local ticket in the field
and so left the county and Legislative
space blank. Over at the Second, ward
the lower part of the straight republ-
can ticket was pasted on tho inde-
pendent state ticket.
The ladies again demonstrated that
they do not want the ballot. In .he
First ward 20 ladies' voted and six voted
for Prof. Ogden. In the Fourth ward
five OF them voted-all for Mrs. Eisen-
huth None of the Third ward ladies
voted.
Les Lows friends are gratitied at the
large vote he received at home. In this
city the republicans ctlt Harmon and
Walsh for him. Mr. Low received the
largest city vote of any Of the candi-
dates for railroad commissioner.
An instance OF show they voted": A
split ticket headed "democratic' was
voted in tho Fourth ward. Tie
heading democratic" was scratched
and the word republican"
written in. The ballot Was evidently
deposited by some conscientious repub-
llcan who always votes the heading of
his ticket straight.
The vote against increasing the juris-
diction Of the county court was decisive.
The people do not want unnecessary ex-
pense saddled upon them. In tho First
ward there was one vote to l47
against. The majority in the other
wards was nearly as overwhelming
The republican state ticket will pull
out of the county with a majority, but
what about the county ticket?
The city vote indicates a close con-
test for states attorney and judge Of
probate.
In the Second ward 2o5 votes were cast
and it took the judges of election l3
hours to count them. The judges did
not leave the polls until 5 o'clock this
morning. In all the other wards the
votes were counted before midnight.
Someone must have been sleepy in the
Second ward. Sixteen votes an hour is
slow work even for the Second ward.
Tho total vote Of the city is G2S. In
the First ward l56 votes were cast; in the
Second, 2O5; in the Third, 134 in the
Fourth, 133. The total vote of the cou1-
ty will not be far from l,20O.
The vote for sheriff Is surprising every
body. McKechnie was unable to rally
his old time forces and Eager did not
! make the run he was expected to. 1t was
generally thought that with McKechnie
IN the field Schmitl and Eager would
run neck and neck race. Schmitz's big
vote is surprise TO him aud everybody
else. He runs away 'out of sight" IN
| every precinct SO far reported.
AS the returns come in it aDDenrs more
| and more likely that both Lutz and
| Kearney have been elected to the legis
lature. I'll" former is certainly elected
and the lat:nr leads Buchanan, the high,
| est republican.

Exchange Echoes.

Grand Forks Herald Jimtown and
Bismarck people are manifesting con-
siderable alarm lest the Red River val
ley may conclude to transfer the seat Of
government from the barren, inhospita-
bic and uninhabitable "slope" to the
''granary of the world" Don't tremble
SO, boys: the subject is not being agi-
tated here at all We havo got some
thing else to do besides eXpending our
vital forces upon small things. When
we get time and want Il little diversion,
Well tackle the capital question and
speedily deposit it in some snug corner
of the "granary" In the meantime
quiet your nerves, keep cool. and don't
borrow unnecessary trouble.

500 Extension.

Lndden Times: There seems to be no
doubt that the 500 road will soon extend
its lina now terminating in Dickey
county. 4 gang Of surveyors have been
at work on the extension for some tune
ana now Judge Babcock who has been in
st. Paul is authority for the statement
that the work OF grading from Boynton
to Washburn, North Dakota. by way of
Bismarck has been let to Shields & Co.
st. Paul. Many are inclined to believe
that the road which is being surveyed
from Oakes to Aberdeen is also 500 ex-
tension.

Notes and Incidents.

Every ward in the city shows a fall
ing off in the vote compared with that
OF two years ago. There was not
enough interest in the election to bring
out the full vote.
Evidences of the vest pocket vote are
seen in everv ward. The republicans
did most of the scratching, and some Of
their tickets had the appearance Of
curiosities.
The printing Offices did good bus
mess in split tickets and stickers. At
least dozen different split tickets we're
in the field and the stickers were mum.

Moisture; intense itching
and singing; most at night; worse by
