The visitors got a hit and a pass off Bender, three hits and a run off Brown, owing to a misjudged fly by Murphy with Hooper on first which gave Yerkes a three bagger, and six hits and two runs off Coombs. O'Brien pitched first class article of ball and was backed up by sensation al fielding, especially by Speaker Lewis. Wagner and Gardner. only 20 batsmen faced O'Brien. Four home players got on the bases, each on a single. two of them were victims of double plays and only one rvner got past first base. Gardner played his first game since he had a bone in the little finger of his right hand injured He gave q fine exhibition in the field once falling over the bleacher copin g on his head after making a daring catch of foul and cracking out q double and a single.

Colonel Roosevelt was shown con-
clusiYely the result of the first presi-
dentlal primary, when he was van
quisiled by more than $4,000 votes in
North Dakota last Tuesday. sena-
tor Toilette carried the day easily,
Roosevelt not even scoring in the.
pla1ns which he used to "boss" in the
role pf cowboy. Roosevelt's strength
was Soverestimated greatly by his
campaign managers, while LaFollette
did not make the usual campaign pre-
dictipns, but added to his columns by
q few well-pointed speeches couple
OF days before the primary.
Roosevelt carried only ten counties
with the total small majority of about
8, 900 votes in these. All the rest
Went for LaFollette by large majori-
ties. Another victory for La Toilette
was accorded in the election of Thorn
as Marshall as national committee
man, At the same time all the La
FollAtte presidential electors were
elected, throwing the state for LaFol.
letteS without dispute.
President Taft's vote in the state
was small, as the issue lay between
the two progressive leaders. Many re-
publican political leaders think
koosevelt's failure to carry North Da.

tional convention.

WHO WAS IT?

We do not believe the editor of the
Banner is wholly responsible for the
stand the paper has taken in ditch
matters. Many of the leading citizens
of Argyle are known to be enemies of
drainage. Who was it that made a
public declaration in st. Paul to the
effect that the state was draining poor
$l.5O acre land and spelling good $50
land by so doing, and that the land in
the eastern part of the county was
not worth draining? Who. was he?
Who was it that ibeled the whole
eastern part Of the county? Warren
Sheaf.
D. Robertson, the mis-fit who mis-
represents this district in the legisla-
ture at st. Paul is the man. We have
absolute proof that on several occa-
sions in st. Paul, at public meetings
OF legislative committees, Robertson
stated that the money which was be-
ing spent to drain eastern Marshall
county was being spent on land not
worth the cost of drainage AS usual,
Robertson tries to stand on both sides
OF the fence at the same time When
he was running for office the last
time, he made an address here and he
told the people in that address what
a magnificent country they were liv-
ing in and passed out the usual dose
of salve that he is capable of. Robert.
son is not alone in his false state.
ments about eastern Marshall county
The Argyle Banner in recent article
stated that the land being drained by
Judicial Ditch No. II was not worth
a d-m. Robertson will discover how
the eastern end of the district feels
when he asks for their votes next
time.- -Grygla Eagle.

CONSUL GENERAL BoRDEWlcH.
DEAD

Deputy Sheriff j.. P. Bordewich re-.
ceived the sad advices from Christi
ania, Norway, on Tuesday concerning
the death of his father, Consul Gener-
al Henry Bordewich
The death of Consul General Borde-
wich ends an active career of Min
nesota resident, who rose rapidly in
the ranks of citizenship, statesman
ship and diplomatic circles. He
was a staunch friend of many pioneer
Minnesotans, who recall his political
activities in Yellow Medicine county.
His rapid rise in diplomatic circles is
ascribed to his keen political insight,
as well as his courteous official and
business relations
The late Mr., Bordewich was born
in Vaagan, Norway, Jan. Is, 1874. He
was educated at the high school and
lcQmmerclal college in Bergen. He
came to America in 1854 and served
in the Mississippi squadron of the
navy during the latter part of the ci
vii war. Then he settled in Yellow
Medicine county and served as its
auditor from 1874 to 1878. He be
came postmaster at Granite Falls in
1879 and held that position fourteen
years. In 1897 he was named the
American consul general at Christi
ania, becoming consul general a few
years later.

MORE SETTLERS COMING.

The large number of carloads of i'm
migrant movables, which have arriv-
ed in Warren during the last thirty
days, bespeak the rush of new set
tiers to this territory. Twenty-six
carloads have come in over the two
railroads, while many others are on
the way, according to reports Of real
estate agents. From present indi.
cations hundreds of idle Marshall
county farms will be cultivated this
year by new arrivals. Most OF the
new settlers are attracted by the
great drainage projects in the eastern
part Of the county.

tAMUND JOHNSON RESIGNS

Faithful official service, extending
over more than a quarter of a century
came to a close at the election in the
town of Foldahl, when Amund John
son resigned as chairman of the town
board. With the exception of one
year, Mr.. Johnson has held this posi-
tion since the township was organic
ed in 1883. :ts==7=:-ssSs
Weak from illness attendant to old
age, Mr.. Johnson wept as he thanked
his many friends for their support and
their good will during his long official
career in the township. His friends,
in turn, and many whose locks have
been silvery for many years, wept as
they heard him give an account of his
faithful stewardship. By rising
vote of thanks they acknowledged
their sincere appreciation and wished
Mr.. Johnson many more years in their
midst.
This was novel incident in politics
as there were tears at the ballot box
Township affairs were suspended for
a few minutese, while Mr.. JohnsOn's
friends told of his struggles as pio-
neer in Marshall county, his work in
behalf Of the county and the success
which followed all his endeavors. His
early home in the township, built in
1881, was the hospitable inn for hum
dreds of homeseekers and travellers.
The prosperity of many farmers in
that section is due to Mr.. Johnson's
advice in the early days. In all lines
of good endeavor in the township and
county, he was the champion. Chiefly
| by his endeavors the Norwegian Lu-
theran congregation was organized in
Foldahl. There Mr.. Johnson has Ia
bored as deacon and Sunday school
teacher since it's organization.
Mr.. Johnson suffers from an ailment
in the head and is receiving treat
ments in Grand Forks from time to
time. His many friends, which in,
clude almost everyone in the county,
hope he may be counted as a pioneer
for many years to come.

AT WARREN CITY ELECTION
VOTE WAS 1s4 IN FAVOR AND
14e AGAINST, WITH II VOTERS
PRESENT AND NOT VOTING ON
THE QUESTION
A. 3. NELSON REELECTED MAYOR
FOR FOURTH CONSECUTIVE
TIME BY A HANDSOME VOTE

Considerable ginger was infused in.
to the city election last Tuesday, the
question of license being of course the
main issue. On the face of the returns
the "wets" are five votes ahead of the
"drys", and claim to have won the
day. AS the vote of the "wets'' is not
a majority of all the votes cast at
the election as the charter seems to
provide, the "drys" claim that the IL
cense has failed to carry and that the
town will therefore remain dry. The
question hinges upon whether or not
the blank votes should be considered
in determining the question. There
We're 320 votes cast at the election
and as majority Of these is 161, the
license crowd is seven votes short,
taking this view of the case. If by
majority of votes cast" means votes
cast on the question, then license has
carried by five votes. A fine legal
point is involved here and the Sheaf
will not undertake to decide it. Else
where we publish the section of the
city charter bearing upon the ques-
ton.
The following is the result of the
