dates for the position, Mldtbo of Ware
and Hannfin of Burleigh running To-
the long term. Many counties only re-
ported on McCumber and Marshall, 81
absolutely correct figures are impossi.
bic to obtain, but a hasty estimate in.
dicates that McCumber will have about
A to 46 per cent OF the total vote
In case he should fall below the AZ
per cent it will mean that McCumbel
and Marshal will be candidates again
at the fall election as Marshall and
Johnson were two years ago. Should
there be total vote of $4,000, Nc
Cumber will have between $4,000 and
$4,000.
Democrats Are Short.
There may be only the republican
ticket on the official ballot this fall.
There are grave doubts as to whether
the democrats have received a vote
that will total 80 per cent Of that cast
for the democratic candidate for sec
rotary of state at the last election. The
primary law provides that amount
must be secured to get a party ticket
on the fall ballot If this has failed
the democratic candidates will be
forced to run on stickers
Should the democrats be short 1t is
probable the constitutionality Of the
primary law will be taken into the
courts. r-.
High Men.
Gilbreath seems to have the honor
of being high man on the republican
ticket and Andy Miller second. One or
the other will lead. 1t is most peculiar
that they should be high men when
one belongs to the stalwarts and the
other to the insurgent faction. Gill
breath Is having runaway in the race
with Macdonald. The bitter personal
attacks made on him in Fargo
morning sheet and a weekly appear
to have helped Gilbreath. The people
Of North Dakota want official acts
placed in the limelight but no not ap-
pear to enthuse over undertaking into
a mans private life.
Election Notes.
Thirty nine counties gave McCumber
21,797 and Marshall 1924. McCum-
oer's plurality over Marshall will
probably exceed 5000 on the final re-
turns.

Twenty -three counties gave TAYLOR
1855 to 49, for Woods for SUPER
ntendent of public instruction. These
included the larger counties Of the
state.
Purcell seems to have a lead over
Stutsman for third place on the rail-
Dad commission. Man was support
I'd by both the stalwarts and the in
Anderson, the second high
nan, was an insurgent candidate. If
Purcell wins out the railroad COM
