Can Sample Ballots be Used

Can Sample Ballots be Used
The first contest growing out of the
recent primary election in South
Dakota will at ono be instituted in the
state circuit court of Deuel. county,
and involves a member of the lower
house of the state legislature from that
county. The contest will be instituted
by ID. w. Bremen, who on the face of
the returns vas defeated by fourteen
majority, his competitor being a man
named Quicksrad. In the contest pro
ceedings Mr.. Bremen will have evil
dence to show that in one of the vot.
ing precincts-a country precinct
twenty-seven sample ballots were used
for official ballots; that the polls were
kept open after 5 o'clock in the after
noon, the time fixed for their closing
by the state primary election law, and
that the required notice was not given
at 4:3O o'clock that the polls would close
at 5. IL appears that the election
judges in the precinct involved in the
contest proceedings ran out of official
ballots, and al there was not sufficient
time to secure a fresh supply from the
county seat, sample ballots were given
twenty-seven voters in lieu of official
ballots. The sample ballots are
alleged to have been used on instruc-
tons from the county auditor. Bremen
will endeavor to have these twenty
seven votes thrown out. If he sue
ceeds in this the apparent majority of
fourteen for Quickstad would be
turned into a majority of thirteen for
Bremen and he would be entitled to a
seat in the legislature.

horrible wound in the boys abdo-
men.
His mother, hearing the explosion
of the gun, ran to her son and took
him into her arms, where she held
him until the arrival of DR.. N. e.
Erwin. After a few minutes he lost
consciousness. He vas taken i'm
m~ediately by Dr.. Erwin to the Mon
mouth Memorial Hospital at Long
Branch in record breaking time, but
died two hours after his arrival
there.
Crawford was small for his age
and attended the graded school and
was also a member of the Baptist
Sunday school, where he was very
popular. The funeral will be held
Saturday afternoon at 2 o'clock at
the home and 3 o'clock at the Bap-
fist church. Rev. Samuel Bower

State Board Of Agriculture

(From the NEWS Correspondent.)

NTIVNH t"0 Ho
Trenton, Oct. 10.-Frankltn Dye,
Secretary of the State Board of Ag-
riculture, declared today that some
drastic action must be taken at once
to save New Jerseys fine system of
more than 1900 miles of improved
highways built under the state aid
law. Secretary Dye stated that since
New Jersey has thrown Its doors wide
open to automobilists of other states,
by the law passed last winter, the
damage to the roads has very greatly
increased. The high power cars, he
said, are rapidly destroying the
roads.
1t is likely that the matter will be
brought before the State Board of
Agriculture at its annual meeting
here in January. Mr.. Dye thinks that
the automobile license fees should be
materially increased In order that
those who are doing the most dam
age to the roads should provide the
cost for their maintenance.
