NORTH DAKOTA SENATORS
List Of Hoidovers and the Nominees In
the Several Districts.
BISMARCK, N. D.-The secretary of
state begins this week to certify to the
various county auditors the nominees for
state and legislative positions at the forth
coming elections. There are forty legis-
lative districts in the state, as against
thirty-one districts two yeare ago.
The republicans have filed complete
legislative tickets In every district in the
state except the fourth, where, as grace
full recognition of the services of Senator
Cashel, the republicans have nominated
no opposition candidate. It is worthy of
note, also, that the nominations this year
show the decadence Of the once thriving
populist party. There are no populist
nominations, and only few independent
democratic.' The opposition to the re-
publicans in the state is sailing under the
democratic banner. - ~ -
As matter of fact, there is no demo-
cratic party in the state, so far as the law
goes. The Australian ballot law pro-
vides that to be entitled to place on the
ticket, a party must have cast a certain
per cent of the votes at the last preceding
election. There was no democratic party
at the last election, the merger of the
two parties being styled on the official
ballot the independent democratic
party. Consequently the democratic
party is not entitled to place on the bal
lot this year, except by courtesy of the
opposition: It is not likely the question
will be raised, but if it were it Is difficult
to see how the nominees of that party
would get, on the ballot at all, except by
petition. & = "H .-'>. .
