POLL BOOKS DO
NOT CORRESPOND
Jordan-Sweet Case in Fargo
Reached Climax
Yesterday.

Fargo. N. D., April 1s.-striking
sensations were brought to light yes
terday in the First ward probe il the
mayoralty contest in district our be-
tween j. j. Jordan, plaintiff, and w.
D. Sweet, defendant, when it was
found that one book shows 2S2 names
polled and the other 240. while the
number Of ballots cast, as produced in
court, is 290.
Sam Graham, inspector Of the First
ward section, was recalled to the
stand and on cross examination said
that no poll books of the municipal
vote was kept. but n clerk entered
the names of the republican voters in
the presidential preferential primary
pool book and. the democratic voters
in another book and made up the poll
book by copying these names from the
primary books, after the election clos
ed.
Books Should Tally.
The law requires that in each vot-
ing precinct each of two clerks shall
keep a poll book in which to write
the name of each person who votes at
such precinct. These books properly
kept should be duplicates and should
tally exactly: After the polls close the
first duty of the election board is to
see that the poll books Of the clerks
are correct and agree.
If they do not agree the board must
open the ballot box, take out the bal
lots and count them without otherwise
examining them. If there are more
ballots in the box than names on the
poll books thus made to agree, they
must draw out a sufficient number Of
ballots so that the number left will
tally with the number of names on
the poll books. 1t was proved in court
that all these instructions were disre-
garded by the First ward election
board.
Move Dismissal of Case.
Pollock and Pollock and Emerson
Smith for the defense moved dismissal
Of the case on the following grounds:
Because it appears from the undis-
puted evidence and uncontradicted ev-
idence that the plaintiff has not made

Because it appear afirmatively
