ILLINOIS, WARM
PRIMARY BATTLE
Voters Express Preferences on
Candidates and Suffrage.
LIKE ROOSEVELT AND CLARK
Governor Deneen and Judge e. r.
Dunno Are Probable Nominees for
Governor-cuIIom Probably De-
feated-Woman Suffrage Lost.

Chicago, April 10.-Illinois on Tues
day experienced one of the most inn
portant and hard fought political bat.
ties of late years.
The voters expressed their prefer
ences on president, United States SEN
ators, congressman, legislators and
other state officers ar q also upon the
woman suffrage proposition.
Roosevelt has swept Illinois.
He will lead President Taft by more
than 100000 plurality in the final vote
of the first presidential primary in the
state.
Roosevelt will have SIS of Illinois
delegates to the national convention,
Taft two, and LaFollette none.
Champ Clark has carried almost
everything in Cook county and is run
ming far ahead in the state.
Senator Shelby NJ. Cullom has ap-
parently been beaten for the Repub-
ncan Endorsement for United States
senator. After more than half a CEN
fury of public service, at the age of
eighty-two years, he seems to have
lost a political contest-the first he
has ever lost.
Lawrence Y. Sherman is the victor
from the early indications. The two
are running side by side in Cook coun-
/ ty, and downstate returns show Sher-
man to be ahead.
Governor Charles S. Deneen seems
to have scored an easy victory for his
third nomination as Republican candi-
date for governor. His estimated
plurality in Cook county is from 3d.
600 to 10000 and his total vote is al
most as great as that of Len Small and
John E. w. Wayman combined
| Wayman and Small are running
closely in Chicago, with the other
candidates nowhere. Walter Clyde
Jones, insurgent candidate, has shown
surprising weakness.
Roosevelt's plurality in this city, &C
cording to latest returns, will be be
tween 10000 and $4,000, and the state
and local managers of his campaign
claim for him plurality of 100000 in
the state. He carried the home dis
trict of Congressman William B. Nc.
Kinley, the national Taft manager, by
$500, and was also victorious in the
home district of Frank Smith, Taft
manager for Illinois.
| The Roosevelt forces carried Chica
go by a vote of az to 1, swept Ste
phenson county by 4 to and many
other communities by the same ratio
leading to the claim by Roosevelt leo d.
ers that their candidate will SHOW a
strength of to / when the final re
turns are tabulated.
Charles s. Deneen, Republican, and
Edward F. Dunno, Democrat, have car
ried Cook county by large pluralities
and probably will be the nominees Of
their parties for the governorship.
The vote on president and governor
Is given thus from incomplete returns

HOW CHICAGO VOTED
Vote 10 Heavy and Battle Toughest
in Memory.

Chicago, April 10.-Old timers in the
game of politics declare the battle at
the direct primaries was the tough
est" one they ever tackled. The field
of candidates was so large and the
bitterness so keen in the organization
precinct committeeship fights that it
got beyond the big leaders and they
were willing to admit that nothing
would surprise them when the count
of the ballots gave some idea of tangi-
BILE results
Champ Clark carried Chicago by a
majority of $4,000 over Woodrow Will
son.
Colonel Rockwell leads in the Re-
publican presidential advisory race
over President Taft and Senator La
Toilette by a plurality of $4,000.
Edward F. Dunno carries Chicago by
10000.
The city received it's first real taste
of woman suffrage and it is clamorina
for more. From one end of Chicago
to the other the presence of women,
some handsomely gowned and others
plainly or shabbily dressed, pleading
with the crowds of voters to remem.
Der the women when they cast their
ballots, gave a picturesque and un.
usual touch to the election day scenes
Woman suffrage has been defeated
in Chicago. Calculations based on
complete returns from about eighty
precincts show the ratio of ballots
cast was about to in favor of the
"antis.''
Every kind of nalediction was ut
tered during the day against the long
ballots.
One attempted murder, many riots
and innumerable fist fights accom-
panied the election contests.

LAPAz H. s. COMMENCEMENT.
Alumni Organization Perfected At
First Annual Meet.

VI the many social acJlNltleS
which have marked the work of the
Lapaz High school none have been
looked forward to with more pleasur
than to the first annual Alumni
Banquet which was held in the
High school building Saturday eve
ming, April 6.
The idea of an organized alumni
was first spoken of nearly two years
ago when the first class to graduate
from the new high school building
held their annual reunion as guests
of Miss Lottie Logan of Lapaz, a
member of this class.
Here the little fire of loyalty to
their alma mater was kindled and
resulted in the social banquet and
in forming a permanent organiza-
tion.
F. W. Shetland acted as toast
master of the evening which posi-
ton he admirably filed.
Owing to the inclement weather
many were prevented from atten l.
ing. Those from distance were
Prof. VIM. Hostetler of the South
Bend High school, former teacher
of North township and the first high
school teacher of the Lapaz schools.
Prof. Zimmerman Of Rochester, a
former high school teacher, and a
man held in the highest regard by
his pupils; Prof. Tebay, now of the
Inwood school is another of our for
mer teachers who endeared himself
to the people whom he met. Prof.
and Mrs. Tebay came to renew the
old friendship formed during their
work here.
At 9 o'clock the Alumni and its
guests sat down to a sumptuous
supper prepared by the K. o. T. B.
girls-the lading young ladies club
of Lapaz.
The menu and program follow:
Pickles Salad
Pressed Chicken
Brown Bread White Bread
Sliced Tomatoes

Theodore Roosevelt, the foremost
champion Of personal rights in Ameri-
ca today, will speak in Fargo Friday.
A large attendance Jig expected in
spite Of the busy season, and at this
time a convention will be held to
select Roosevelt electors to appear on
the ballot this fall, and also to de-
termine whether 1t is wise to place a
state ticket in the field. What will be
done we do not know, but we do know
that it would not only be unwiae for
the whole movement in North Dakota
to mix the issues in this fashion, but
unfair to those whom the people have
selected. The voters as far back as
June in this state selected their tick
ct in an absolutely fair way by the
means Of primary, and it IS too
late to go back on the results Of the
primary at this time. So far az the
Journal is concerned we expect to
support the republican state and coun.
ty ticket without exception. It is an
honest ticket and represents the DELHI
crate Judgment Of the rank and file
Of the party which is in the over
whelming majority in this state. The
national ticket is a different propo-
sition bsolutely.-Meville Journal.

USUALLY THE CASE,

! 1t makes the democratic press feel
real sore to see so many enthusiastic
and favoable comments relative to the
republican party's nominee, Louis B,
Hanna It appears that as election
approaches L. B. Hanna is gaining
material strength in the ranks of both
parties. Mr. Hanna will have the sol
id support of the republicans at the
November election and his majority
will easily exceed 10000 votes; this in
fact an estimate at large figure tax
ing all into consideration. There is no
room Cor shadow CT 4 d,ul5. but
that the Republican parry WI be sue
eessful at the next general election in
eseeting governor. Owing 30 the
fact that the Democrats with the as
sistance Of the Republieans) have
been successful in eleetiue Johnnie
Burke for the past six years, the opin-
ion prevalent ar1ong the Democrats
5is to the effect that they can ssDO''
the Grand Old Party every crack out
OF the ballot box. That this idea will
be eliminated, time will soon tell. Ii
the Republican party would have had
"a man like Hanna as candidate in
lieu Of Christoferson fsYonson ~
Burke would have been showed under
so far you could meyer have dug him
eut. We doubt whether the Repub1i-
soa party could have found a strong.
er, better qualified OF able a man to
run for the highest office in this state
than l. 3. Hanna is, and to prove that
we are correct, Mr.. Hanna will re-
ceive the stauuch support Of his party
for governor-the direct will Of the
people Of the state Of North Dakota
at the last primary election. It is
the duty Of each and every Repub11-
can within the borders Of the state
to put their shoulders to the wheel
and boost for L B. Hanna. Party
loyalty Is right. Let US as true Re.
pub1icans lead the successful nominee
to vietory-and we will.-Warvck

pose, in his own handwriting, the
cause Of such suspension.

| pose, in his own handwriting, the
cause Of such suspension"
| spenst was convicted upon his plea
of guilty, but was not sentenced with
in thirty days after such conviction,
and has not, as a matter OF fact, been
sentenced yet. No reasons Of any kind
were entered in the docket for such
suspension Of sentence. No appeal was
being taken.
| The supreme court OF this state and
of all other states where the point
has been raised have held that when
| the court fails to sentence within the
TIME Set by such statute it loses
/ jurisdiction over the defendant and
he cannot be sentenced at later
date.
This was the exact situation as pre-
sented to Judge Cawan upon hearing
under the writ of haheas corpus. In
strict accordance with the law he de-
cided that Spenst was unlawfully held
in custody, as the court had lost the
power to sentence him, and so of
course could not hold him in Jail to
compel him to give bond for some
thing for which he could not be pun
ished.
Upon this statement, Of facts there
can be no doubt but what Judge Cow
an decided this case, as he has all
others, strictly according to the law
as he understood it, and few men I'M
derstand it better.
No man has ever questioned Judge
Clwan s honesty in single one Of
the hundreds of decision he has hand
ed down during the time he has &C.
cupied the bench, and it is only for
political effect that all these criticisms
and misrepresentation are being
hurled at him about this particular
case.
This question must instantly occur
10 the average man upon reading the
facts Of this particular case: ssWhat
possible object could Judge Cowan
have N setting free man that he
thought could be lawfully ,unisheds'
His record is all against such thing,
but his record has always shown him
10 be man who has the courage to
do what he believes to be right and
in accordance with the law.

VOTE CAST At THE PRIMARY E[[C-
TON IS COMPLETE By CANVASSERS
TOTAL FIGURES GIVEN
As WERE CAST FoR EACH
CANDIDATE.
AS TO LEGISLATURE
CANDIDATES WILL APPEAR
n
LATER

The World presents herewith the
abstract of votes cast at the primary
election for the various officers on
the statet ickeu and for the judiciary
giving the totals only.
Owing to the lack of space the re-
suit of the election relative to the
various legislative candidates over
the state are not printed today, but
will follow as soon as possible.
In the attached schedule the first
and second votes are given, where
second choice was necessary accord
ing to law. The forge, of this law
was not called into operation however
except in the case Of Norton and
Simpson candidates for Congress- In
the Third district. In tots case Mr..
Simpson received the highest number
,of votes, but owing to the fact that
,he did not receive a majority of the
votes cast It was necessary to resort
so the addition OF the second choice.
In the matter Of second choice Mr..
Norton had received over 600 votes
more than Mr.. Simpson had, which
added to his number Of first choice
made him the winner. The validity
of this very peculiar law has been up
held by the supreme court Of Min
nesota, where practically the same
law is In force but it is claimed by
some Of Mr.. Simpsons friends that
the North Dakota statute did not pass
through the proper routine in the leg
islature, hence is invalid. Just
what there is to this claim is not
known.
Herewith the totals as taken from
the records On file in the office Of
secretary Of state, and approved by
the aipr,
