Not all Of those on hand are en-
during the discomfort of holding down
their situations. Some have hired boys
to occupy their places in line or circle
while they are resting in hotels. This
has proved too expensive to few. as
some of these temporary holders OF
precious space have sold the same to
others who submitted a more lucrative
proposition to them than did the origi-
nal holders.
There are 5000 claims Of $50 each
to be filed on. These claims are those
left after all who had numbers in the
drawing had either drawn or failed to
respond when their number was called.
There were thousands who drew

BALLOTS MAY BE
PRINTED AGAIN
DEMOCRATS OBJECT TO BEING
LEFT OFF THE FALL ELEc-
TON BALLOT.

Bismarck, N. D., Oct. 31.--Judge
winchester OF the Sixth judicial
district, upon the application Of
Attorney Costello Saturday afternoon,
issued a writ of alternative mandamus
on the county auditor requiring him
to show cause why he should not be
compelled to have printed on the gem
eral election ballot for this fall the
names of several candidates who, af-
ter the decision of the supreme court,
that the 80 per cent clause of the pri-
mary law was unconstitutional, and
that every candidate who received a.
majority at the primary election was
nominated and entitled to a place on
the general election ballot this fall
In some manner the names of F. e.
Young, who received democratic votes
as a candidate for clerk of court;
John L. Patterson. who is the choice
of some for register of deeds: Tom
Sanders for clerk of court, and Mr..
Brandt for corner, were left off the
ballot, and as they did not resign as
candidates. they desire to have their
names placed on the ballot. 1t will
probably be necessary to recall the
ballots that have already been deliv-
cred to the precincts and another sub
stituted This will mean some rush
work for some printing office, as on
account of the size of the county it
will take some time to make the dis
tribution after the printing has been
done.

be properly fed and taken care OF.
as in the case OF the six-year-old
horse. Lands properly fed and cared for
readily come back to former fruition.
The young Danes that Mr.. Abraham
sen has brought to Virginia, and those
he proposes to bring, know from hard
experience in the old country how to
feed and take care OF land just as
we'll as any horseman knows how to
feed and take care Of horseflesh.
Denmark is crowded with farmers.
lands are high because acres are
scarce, and the young farmer who is
ambitious to be a land owner instead
of renter or hired man. Is looking
for a new country, where there are
! more acres to select from. There are
anywhere from 100000 to 100000 of
them who would like to move and move
quickly. Why should not Virginia
catch the whole bunch?
The Way Out OF Trouble.
Well these muscular, intelligent
and energetic men have very little
money. Perhaps there is not one in
q hundred Of them who could pay
his way to Virginia, or the way Of his
small family. ii he has one, and have
enough money left to buy ten or
twenty-acre. farm The last mothers
son of them could manage to raise
enough OF the coin Of the realm to
get transportation and land here all
right, but after he gets here. then
what? The old Virginia farmer is
nightly suspicious of the new conner
of foreign birth. whether he comes
from Denmark or elsewhere. and that
same old Virginia farmer is very
much used to negro labor as
inferior IS it is. and SO the young
Dane has a mighty poor chance If he
comes merely in search OF employ
ment on the farm. He must come as
a buyer of farm or it would be
better for him not to come at all.
NOW, this young Dane is a laborer.
a farm hand, a cultivator and all that
kind Of thing combined. and he can
take a few acres Of land and make it
blossom as rose, by combining his
abilities as above outlined. but he
must have the few acres.
Farmers Credit aIobilier.
Mr.. Abrahansen tells me that in
Denmark and Germany and Sw1tzer-
land and in England there have been
formed in recent years stock compa-
MES that are known by the name Of
Farmers Credit Associations"
These companies or associations are
formed with fair amount of capt.
tai by men of means who have the good
of the country at heart and when the
company is we'll established it issues
interest paying bonds. These bonds
are sold on the market and the rev.
enue derived from them is used to
help the young men to become farm
owners
L suppose the way 1t would work in
Virginia would be for the company
or association to buy lands in broad
acre quantities and sell them out in
small acreage to the right kind Of
young farmers. giving them all needed
time In which to pa yfor the same and
also helping them on a fully insured
credit system to make both ends meet
while they are gettig on their feet
The More the Better.
1t seems to me that a dozen or
more, even hundred or more of such
.Farmers' Credit Associations" scat
tered throughout Virginia would be
Of immense advantage, am sure
that in the final windup each and
every such association would declare
a handsome dividend, but suppose 1t
never paid a cent as a direct dSyl.
