The changes in the House will be more
striking and important, because so many

Senate in North Dakota.
Fargo, N. D.. June 26.-While returns
from the primary election are very
meager, and several days may elapse
before the result is definitely known,
either as to senator or one Of the two
congressman, it seems reasonably GER
tain, estimating from returns on hand
at noon yesterday, that no candidate
for senator has received 40 per cen:
Of the total vote, and that as result
the names of the two men standing
highest in number Of votes received
will go on the ballot at the general
election in November.
The returns up to noon covered 341
precincts nearly all of them up and
down the Red river valley
Very little has been heard from the
western part of the state, but 1t shows
that the senatorial candidate of that
section, C. B. Little, Of Bismarck, is
running far ahead Of his opponents.
II a guess were in order at this time,
1t would be that Representatives Tom
Marshall and Little would 90 on the
senatorial ballot in November, Mar

the number Of primary votes polled.
