Did you votei

Did you votei 1922.
Probably the lightest election ever
held in Devils Lake as well as the
only one where the opinion has been
unanimous on an issue was that held
yesterday, when thirty-seven votes
were cast in answer to two questions
relative to the issuance Of bonds for
Special school purposes.
Twenty-three signed their names to
the book during the morning hours
which the polls were open, while there
was nothing doing in the afternoon
Few in Devils Lake knew it was cleo
ton day yesterday, yet everything was
carried on as only an election could be
carried on.
There was no furore over the result
which was known before the voting
started. There was absolutely nothing
to fight about not even the number
who turned out to vote. It Was the
quietest, lightest election ever held in
Devils Lake.

VERMONT VOTE MISLEADING
West, Where Roosevelt ie
Easily In Lead.

The vote OF Vermont was full of
promise for the Democrats. That fact
stood out clearly in the returns. An
accession OF Democratic confidence
vas a natural result OF the first test
OF New England sentiment. But New
England is a small part of the country
and the conditions are different in the
west.
Look at California. There the Demo
cratic vote in the statewide primaries
was insignificant. The result Of the
test of public sentiment which was
almost as conclusive as a regular cleo.
ton, indicated clearly that Roosevelt
can easily beat Wilson. As for the
candidate of the administration Repub-
Leans, any man who believes that
Mr.. Taft has a chance for the electoral
vote Of California Is n miracle OF
hopefulness or a victim OF profound
ignorance Of the conditions In the
largest and most populous state of
the Pacific coast.
Even If the Democrats had carried
Maine they would merely have held a
state already in their possession. II
they had made Il better showing there
than they ever did before since Maine
first became Republican, which they
did not, 1t would have proved nothing
outside OF New England. The position
of tho west will not be affected in the
least by any such tests Of the senti.
ment OF the northeastern corner Of
the country.
