OLD BISMARCkER dead
n. G. coykendaI, Railroad Contractor,
Once Resident Of This City, Passes
Away at Merriam Park, MINI.

II. G. coykendaIi, Railroad Contractor,
Once Resident of This City, Passes
Away at Merriam Park, MINI.
H. G. CoyEendall, for more than
twenty years resident of Merriam
Park, st. Paul, and one of the veteran
| railroad builders of the northwest,
died last Thursday evening at ST.
Mary's hospital, Rochester, MINI. He
|had been i'll for several months, and
about five weeks ago an operation was
deemed advisable. This seemed en-
tirely successful, but complications
followed and resulted in death.
Mr.. Coykendall was born in Illinois
January 7, 1910. When the civil wal
broke out he enlisted, and he re-
manned with his regiment throughout
the struggle, returning home with a
captains commission. Following the
war, Mr.. Coykendall came to the
northwest as general contractor, but
soon entered the field of railroad
building, having a part in the con-
struction of the Northern Pacific main
line, and the Canadian Pacific. Later
he was one of the most important
factors in the completion of the Great
Northern road as a transcoHtinental
line. While at work on the Northern
Pacific line his home was at Rrainerd,
MIMI and afterward at Bismarck,
N. D.
Afterward, while with the Canadian
Pacific company, he resided at Winni-
peg, from which place he moved to
Merriam Park, in 1885. After the
completion of the Great Northern line,
Mr.. Coykendall spent most of his time
at his home in Merriam Park, where
he devoted much of his time to the
study of United States history, par
ticularly that of the war and of the
northwest
He was an active and. interested
member of the Loyal Legion and for
years was deeply interested in the
work of the Merriam Park Presby-
terrain church, of which he was a
member and an officer.
He leaves three children, G. A.
Coykendall, who has been spending
the winter in Asheville, N. c.; H. G..
Coykendall, jr., of Merriam Park, and
Mrs. H. A. Stevenson of Bloomington,
III. Mrs. Coykendall, his wife, died
last December.

Candidates who do not have petit
tons, as prescribed by law, will be
unable to get their names on the
official ballot for the primary election
which will be conducted in the same
manner as a general election. There
is nothing to prevent any person from
running by stickers, but the chances
for nomination will be much better
where petitions are used in the regu-
lar manner.
The persons securing the highest
number of votes at the primaries for
any Office, are recognized as the reg
ular nominees. The votes are can
Vassed at the court house the same as
for the general fall election. The re-
suit of the primaries will, to a great
extent, decide the outcome of the fall
election and voters should govern
themselves accordingly and show in
terest in the primaries.

AN OFT TOLD TALE

j. A. Heck, young farmer near
Darling, on the classic shores of
Turtle Lake, Mclean county, returned
last night from a winters visit to the
many others with the desire to own a
piece of land of his Every own" he
came to the state, made a filing and
planned to make committed proof as
soon as possible so he could return
to the old home again. He got as
far as advertising his proof and then
was called to Iowa. He returns with
a determination not to commute, but
instead to live On his land and make
Mclean county his home And this
is what changed his mind:
81 have a fine claim; it is nicely
situated, being only two miles from
Darling, eight from the town of Turtle
Lake and IL from Underwood. The
neighbors are as good people as one
can find anywhere and the country is
settling up very fast. The climate is
glorious, crops good-what more can
farmer want. "
Il had pictured the old home in my
mind as being everything desirable
| and longed to be back. When at
last got there I was sadly disap-
pointed. Everything seemed changed
/ and yet there had. been no change
Things looked old and run down at
the heel; the farms had shrank up
| it seemed to me, and the very roads
looked like narrow lanes. felt
cramped and crowded, and in spite Of
| me had a kind Of pity for the people
who had to live In such narrow sur
roundings. One storm after another
made the winter unpleasant and when

NOTHING Doing
Primaries Less Than Three
Months Away and Few
Seeking Office

So far few candidates for county
office have announced themselves in
print Or on the quiet. The only az
gressive candidates in the field are
seeking the Office of sheriff, which is
the best in the gift of the people of
this county With the chara cteristic
fashion of this section every one with
"a bee seems on a still hunt, when a
manly, open candidacy for office
would serve all around much better.
But things are never done that way
in Bismarck and Burleigh county
where it is possible to do them on the
strict q. t.
The primaries will be held at the
regular voting places throughout the
county, on Tuesday, June 10, less than
three months away, and only two men
have peeped their desires!
Under the new primary law, peti-
tons must be filed with the county
auditor not less than 20 and not more
than 80 days prior to June 10.
There is one feature of the law
which makes it remunerative to the
county in the event that there are a
good many candidates, and that is the
fee which the candidate must deposit
at the time the petition is fled The
schedule for the larger Offices is
based on the yearly salary aud is as
follows:
| Salary. Fee.
Auditor, $500. $50
Treasurer, $1,000 ..... ....... 80
Sheriff, estimated at $4,000 ....... so

for the local league base ball team has

be entered in the contest are in. The
voting begins with this issue, and will

O'clock in the evening. The result
will be announced the following day.
All votes must be made on the coupon

from. Cut out and keep this list il you
want to vote.
names would be sent in but the sng-
suggestion poured in like a deluge and 1t
was the work Of hours sorting them
out OF course there were many dupli-
Gates, but only one of kind is printed
In the list. However. the record of
every name sent in is being kept.
The list includes names taken from
those Of well-known local men, indus
tries, trades, colors and names that are
good, bad and Indifferent. The range is
wide. Some of them apparently mean
nothing. while in others the meaning is
at once plain. Apparently a few
thought to take a. dig at the team by
somewhat uncomplimentary names, but
all are here.
The origin of all the names made
from Arson Is well known. and refers
both to the late Hon. Henry Arson
and his son, Captain Adrian Arson.
One admirer of Sheriff Hutson sent in
his name, another added little to the
name of President l.. S. Peckham, Of
the Iowa State League, and the result
was Peckhamites. Another thought Of
Postmaster J. Q. Saint, and sent that
along. Then the combinations Of
names from the word red, the color of
the teams coats, caps and stockings,
was astonishing. Trades, industries,
and vocations all came in for their
share. The members of the Soldiers
Home Were remembered in such words
as veterans, vets, warriors, etc.
While there was much interest taken
in the suggesting of names in the city.
the surprising thing of the first part of
this contest was the number of names
that came from outside of town, in the
country and towns near and far from
here. As many as dozen names came
from one town alone. This list of other
towns which furnished names includes
Iowa City, Liscomb, Eldora, Union
Denver, Col, Canton, Ill.,, st. Anthony,
Montour, Haverhill, Hubbard, New
Hartford, Iowa Falls. Clemens, Clad
brook, Traer, and many others.
