ELECTION DAY N THE
STATE, BUT It
IS QUIET
Small Vote has Been Cast in
City so Far-Much Inter-
est in County Fights.

This is primary election day in Min
nesota. but, outside of the proclama-
tons on the voting booths and saloon
doors. there is nothing in the city that
would indicate it. There is an abb
sence Of the vote for" placards on
rigs and automobiles. and candidates
for office are not hanging around the
corners. button-holing all voters that
come in sight.
The new Minnesota primary law is
responsible for this. Never more will
be the candidate spend his money for
transportation to and from the polls
or for campaign cigars.
Up to noon today, a very light vote
had been cast in East Grand Forks.
Considerable interest is being taken in
the various Polk county fights. and
there has been some betting on the
outcome in this city. There is a con-
test for practically every county office.
and the candidates have put up a hard
fight.
With a second choice vote for nearly
every Office on the ballot. 1t is not ex-
pected that the judges and clerks of
election will complete their counting
before late tomorrow morning.
