At BISMARCK
First N. D. Election Under
Corrupt Practice Act
ONLY 14s VOTES CAST.
At 1 o'clock this afternoon only
las votes had been cast out of a
normal ballot of about 900.

Bismarck, N, D.. Feb. 5.-Indications
this morning are that a very light
vote viii be cast at the first election
held in the state under the corrupt
practice act. when the question wheth-
er or not Bismarck will bond for a
$4,000 auditorium will be decided.
The new law prohibits compaign-
ing, giving away or cigars or other
inducements to vote right. and also
prohibits the giving of free rides to
a voting place. There were three
wards where no votes had been cast
at 10 o'clock. Bismarck has once vot-
ed to bond for an auditorium. but
there was some technical mistake
made in the arrangements and the
bond issue was declared void. There
is little interest manifested today and
1t is impossible to predict what the
outcome will be.

In addition, the prize corn Of Harp
er Brush was sold by him to vel
known store man Of Lisbon for 81
per busheI, 80 that his efforts brought
him $3.50. ..
About year ago the Lisbon Com.
mercial club offered prizes aggregat.
ing the sum of 500 to the boys under
II years OF age in Ransom county
who would raise the best corn, the re-
quiremcnt being that there must be
at least one acre i'll the plot and tina,
each boy must work his own field.
On Saturday afternoon at the Lis
bon corn festival which is held for
the people OF Ransom county, Thomas
Cooper, OF Fargo, secretary and di-
rector of the North Dakota Better
Farming association. had the pleasure
Of awarding the prizes. and he was
astonished and delighted with the re-
suit.
The first prize which went to Har-
per Brush, was greatly deserved. The
lad had gone out and worked for farm
crs SO as to be able to secure a team
and plow to do the work on his place
and he was literally rewarded for his
efforts. for in addition to receiving the
first priMsof $40 he was offered and ac-
ceptcd ST per bushcl for his corn. Mr..
Cooper states that the corn was fully
maturcd in each case, but that young
'Brush's was away the best.
There were eighteen or twenty il
the contest, and the average for hose
who did not win prizes was from forty
to forty~cight Bushels per acre. The
Brush boy had worked four acres and,
OF course, selected the best. The low
est yield in the contest was twenty
five bushels. ~.
The contest was to be decided at the
line of the corn festival and it was
made 4 feature of the occasion, and
there was a large attendance when
Secretary Cooper made his presentation
speech. ri.
You should have seen the first prize
winners eyes stick out when he re-
,eived the two big double eagles" said
Mr.. Cooper FOR it would have done
you good. He certainly was a pleased
boy, and SO were the others 1t was
fine corn, and | don't think older peo-
pie could have raised better.
Il am glad to be able to state" con-
tinued Mr. Cooper, that the Lisbon
Commercial club, at the time of the
session, announced that it would con-
tlnue the contest next year. The boys
all did good work, but ! certainly did
admire the way III which the winners
must have toiled, and was glad that
their success was so apparent.
1T only goes to show what can be
done in the way of growing corn in this
state if the efforts are put forth to
assist it in growing. The corn that
was raised for the contest will all be
used as seed corn and will bring good
prices in the market for that pur-
pose"
