being shown in educational institu-
lions all over the world. The unique
tour of the student special offered him
an opportunity to secure an educa-
tional film showing the results of
college work. 1t will be the first of
it's particular kind to be displayed in
the picture houses of the world.
Such pictures are now in great de-
mand, especially in foreign countries.
Foreign pictures of travel, industrial
scenes and educational subjects prove
of interest to American theatre man
ayers. Likewise American subjects
appeal to European audiences. In the
series secured are types Of the stu
dents, the young men and Women en-
gagged in their various employments
at the college, incidents of the tour,
the Great Northern train with it's spe-
cial Student Life Special transparency,
the dining car and the student crew
of the train.
Louis w. Hill, chairman of the
board of directors of the Great North
ern railway, who realizes the world
wide publicity North Dakota will re-
ceive as a result of the showing of
the pictures, was greatly pleased as a
result of Mr.. Selig's cooperation in
the work of the student special and
realizes that as a result millions of
people all over the globe will hear
of North Dakota and it's agricultural
college. 1t is expected that the pic
lures will be shown IN a very few
weeks and will be released in Fargo
the same time as shown in the Lead
ing cities of every state in the union.

missed the case brought to oust Pres

that Williams was serving as a mem

Election Day

Up to the noon hour the vote at the
several voting places in the city was
considered rather light. The biggest
vote cast was in the Fourth ward and
there it was less han 100. However,
1T was generally expressed hat the
vote of the city before the polls closed
age and that it would be the water
question which would be the magnet
to draw the voters out after supper.
There was no contest for mayor and it
Is said that this Is only the second
time in the history of Moorhead when
there has been no opposition candi-
date for mayor, but that was the con-
dttion when Judge Nye offered himself
on the altar of sacrifice.
The other candidate having things
his own way was Garfield Rustad for
city attorney. There was a quintette
of candidates for police justice and
there was a scrap in every ward for
alderman, excepting the First ward.

St. Cloud Journal-Press: County
option was defeated in the house of

1t vas not much of an issue in the
campaign, and it is just as well that
it was defeated in the house, as 1t
had no chance in the senate. There
are some earnest advocates of county
option in the state, and there are
many equally good temperance men
and women who have very grave
about county option being a
temperance measure.
