MFARLAND FOR COUNTY CLERK.
One of the candidates in the Mad.
ison county political campaign now
being waged is seriously handicapped
in the race by reason of circumstances,
but ought to be, and without doubt
will be elected despite the handicap.
1t just happens that right at this
time there is an extraordinary amount
of work in the Office OF the county
clerk and as a result of the extra work
that has piled up, S. r. Mcfarland,
the present deputy county clerk and
the republican candidate for election
to the clerkship itself, has been I'M
able to leave his desk and get out
In the county to meet the voters, as
he would like to have done.
Not only has this been the condi.
ton up to date, but there is promise
of continued extraordinary work In
the county clerks office, and as a re-
suit Mr.. Mcfarland will probably be
unable to get outside the courthouse
building very much during the two
weeks remaining before election.
To most voters, however, this very
condition will appeal as an argument
in favor of Mcfarland for clerk, and
among the fair minded men of the
county his handicap in being held
down to desk while other candidates
are able to spend all their time cleo
pioneering, ought to make votes for the
man who stays on the job and tends
to the county's work without regard
to his own fate in the ballots.
For 1t is needless to argue that a
man who will neglect his own personal
campaign two weeks before election,
to do the county work that comes into
the Office. is just the kind Of a man
whom the taxpayers of Madison county
are looking for, for that office.
Sam Mcfarland is the logical man
for the county clerkship at this time,
anyway. Having served four years as
deputy clerk, under George Richard
son, he is trained as no other man
can be to ster into the place that
Richardson will leave, and to make
good" on the job
Mcfarland is a high grade book
keerer, man OF scrupulous care in
attending to the fine points OF cleri.
cal work, and hi long experience in
this branch Of endeavor fits him pre-
eminent'y for the duties that envolve
upon the countv clerk.
That he will receive an immense
vote from the reorle of Norfolk and
vicinity, where he has lived for so
many years ard where he enjoys the
implicit confidence of all men, is as
sured.

Judge Winchester Ordered to Show
Cause Why McGiiIis Case Should
Not Be Removed From County.

On the application of Attorney
General Miller, Judge Spalding of the

directed to Judge Winchester and the
district court of the Sixth judicial
district, to show cause on Tuesday,
June Is, before the supreme court,
why a writ of certorari should not
issue to bring up the papers and
records in the ease against Sheriff D.
J. McGillis, for review Of the SUI
preme court.
This order of the supreme court
brings up the matter of the order
entered by Judge Winchester deny
ing the application of the attorney
general for removal of the venue
of the McGillis case from Burleigh
county to some other county for
trial.
The question involved is the right
of the state upon such a showing as
was made, or upon showing of
prejudice obtain change of venue
in a criminal case. Attorney Cen
eral Miller filed an affidavit with the
supreme court relating the order of
the district court denying the appli-
cation for change OF venue. Upon
the filing of the affidavit Judge
Spalding issued the order to show
cause. It is returnable next Tues
day morning.
If the supreme court decided to is
sue the writ of certorari it will bring
up the order of the district court for
review and for such an order as the
supreme court may enter in the prem
Uses.
