DREAD RECORD OR 1884 MAJ BE
EoUALED IN OHIO VALLEY,
1T is FEARED.
ALL TRAFFIC is CRIPPLED
All Available Craft From Cincinnati
to Cairo Called Into Rescue
Work-Street Car Travel
Is Threatened.

Louisville, Ky.-The Ohio river,
from Cincinnati, o., to Cairo, Ill, has
reached a flood stage greater than at
any time since the memorable devas-
tations of 1884.
Continued rains would make possi-
Bile the breaking of all food records
in the great valley, but the govern
ment forecast does not hold out this
danger.
The toll of the flood, as gathered
under the difficulties presented by in
undated telegraph and telephone Of
fees, is as follows:
Two lives lost here.
Approximately 100000 persons home
less in the food district.
Property loss in Kentucky alone es-
timated in excess of 5000, 900.
Would Flood Fifty Square Miles.
A stage of 40 feet is predicted here.
This would put the water over the
great cutoff e~mbankment east of the
city and flood an area of more than
fifty square miles.
Enormous property loss would fol-
low, but the catastrophe to Louisville
would, in a measure at least, save the
towns below here.
With the temperature at an aver
age of Is degrees above zero in the
affected district, suffering is intense.
With zero weather the condition OF
many thousands of refugees is pit
liable.
AT Cincinnati the river stage is over
60 feet. S~ixty-three feet is predicted
by the government. The Grand Cen
trail station is flooded and trains can
enter the city only by circuitous
routes.
The river is flowing through the Sec
ond stories of many business estab-
lishments near the levee. In the low
eastern and western sections Of the
city thousands are homeless. A rise
of two feet more will cut off street
car travel to these sections.
Refugees Pour Into Cities.
Refugees from the country districts
are pouring into all the larger cities
and every available steam and power
boat is engaged in rescue work.
The Cumberland, Kanawha, Alleghe-
ny, Licking and Kentucky rivers are
pouring their floods into the Ohio and
back waters are sweeping through in
terror towns and villages.
Through the food area school
houses and churches have been
thrown open to afford refugees fol

Report Is Current That Several State
Officials Have Not Properly
Qualified.

An effort may be made ty some OF
the defeated Democratic candidates
for office on the state ticket last fall
to secure possession of the offices be-
cause of the failure of the present in
cumbents to properly qualify by filing
bonds and oaths Of office according to
law. The report is practically con
1rmed that a Fargo attorney has been
engaged to institute proceedings of
this nature. if. after an investigation,
he is convinced there is ground for
action.
All but two of the present state
officials have filed bonds. but the law
has not been properly enforced be-
fore. Governor Hanna has inaugur-
ated business methods and bonds
Which are approved by him as to sutfi-
cheney and by the attorney general as
to form must be filed with the oath of
office with the secretary of state, who
issues a receipt which must be filed
with the state auditor in order TO get
onto the payroll. These provisions
have been ignored in the past by some
officials.
The law requires that filing a bond
is a necessary precedent to qualifying
and that the state officers must qualify
by the first Monday in January, or ten
days later, or Il vacancy exists. 1t is
contended that those who failed to file
bonds according to the provisions of
the law have not properly qualified,
therefore the office is automatically
made vacant. There is also another
provision which makes it a misde-
meanor for an official to assume his
duties without properly qualifying.
With all these provisions so plain in
the North Dakota statutes and the
numerous decisions by the supreme
courts of other states it is contended
that the defeated candidates have sutti-
cient grounds for e~ndeavoring to I'M
seat the successful ones.
