ING VOTES CAST IN LATE PRI-

The state canvassing board is to
reconvene today, and it was expect
ed when the board adjourned in Au-
gust that the supreme court would
have by this time decided the thirty
per cent. primary election law. The
board was compelled to await the
decision of the supreme court for it
was impossible to ascertain whether
or not some of the Democratic legis-
latiye candidates had secured the re-
quired thirty per cent or not. -.
During the interim the secretary
state has secured from all the county
auditors a detailed statement of what
the vote was cast two years ago by
legislative districts, and If the decis.
ion of the supreme court was in hand
as to the constitutionality of the
thirty per cent clause the board could
go ahead today and certify the Demo
cratic legislative nominations, but the
court has been so crowled with work
of late that it will be the last of the
week or early next week before the
decision is handed down. q.

to do well what ones hands find to
do. Mr.. Blaisdell has put into the
administration of the affairs of the
state that business acumen which
brought about the phenomenal sue

And the best part of it all is that
Mr.. Blasidell has not gone around
the state telling what he has accom-
plished. When among the duties OF
his Office, in order to protect the
interests of the state, he decided to
institute proceedings against the

did not holler his head off as to what

HELD FOR MURDER
MRS. WRIGHT, ALLEGED sI4AY-
Err OF GIRL WHO KNEW
DANGEROUS SECRETS. WILL
HAVE TO STAND TRIAL.

Devils Lake, N. D., Sept. 23.-Mrs.
Mary Wright, charged with killing
her: step-daughter, .Beulah Wright,
was bound over today to the district
court without bond after the mo-
tion. by the defense to dismiss the
case had been denied and arguments
were made by the attorneys for the
state and defense on the evidence.
States Attorney Serum mgaard, of Dew.
lis Lake, and Fred Kelly of Lakota,
appeared for the state, and John
Samson and P. J.. McClory represent
ed Mrs. Wright. The case will come
up for trial at the next term Of the
district court, when it is understood
a change of venue will be asked by
the defendants attorneys.
The alleged crime for which Mrs.
Wright must stand trial occurred at
Derrick, N. D, gBeulah, or Babe. Cox,
as she was known,trwas found dead
in bed one morning and suicide was
declared to be the cause, the cor
oner making this finding. An at
tempt was made to ship the body to
the girls old home but Lakota
friends demanded an Investigation
and Mrs. Wright was charged with
the girls murder. The first theory
advanced by the state was that she
had been poisoned but an examina-
ton of the stomach exploded this.
The final theory of the state was
that the girl had been suffocated,
presumably with a pillow, no other
possible cause being found. The
testimony introduced by the state .as
to the relations between the girl and
Mrs. Wright we're. exceedingly dam
aging to the woman as facts from her
past history. The trial of the case
will be awaited with great interest
by people the state over.
