New Salem. N. D., is one of the liv-
est towns in the western part of the
state. It is a German town and itS
citizens take great pride in the upkeep
Of their homes and the surrounding
farms It is a very poor town for
mortgage foreclosures. The New SAL
en- creamery has for the past several
years taken first prize for Its butter.
The country surrounding New Sa-
lem is the strongest diversified farm
ing section in the state, the thrifty,
intelligent German farmers having,
quickly grasped the possibilities in
this kind of agricultural work. Land
is selling from $12 to $40 per acre. The
population of New Salem is 500.
The biggest thing at New Salem is
the TIolstein Breeders circuit which
has become noted throughout the
state and the entire northwest for it's
success.

Senatorial Question in
North Dakota Again
Raised BY Authorities
Rumor From Bismarck That Secretary Hall Will Place
Candidates Winning Highest Vote Starts Comment
Some Declare u S. Senator Cannot Be Elected T. Year
Until Legislature Amends Primary Election LIZ
Other Legal Authorities Disagree and Assert No Such
tngency Can Arse-That Secretary Hall Is Right Y

Recent advices from Bismarck state
the question has again been raised
about the election of a. United States
senator this year without special Iegis-
lation remedying the present primary
election law to make it conform with
the new seventeenth amendment to
the constitution to the United States
providing for the direct election Of
United States senators.
Rumors from the capital city have
it that even though Senator Gronna
is a candidate for reelection and Pres.
John H, Worst of the North. Dakota
Agricultural college and Attorney
General Miller are candidates in op-
position, there is a probability that
none will be elected, and that North
Dakota will. be without senator till
some time after. the next regular ses-
sion Of the state legislature.
Grounds for this speculation among
the politicians have been taken from
the statement attributed to Secretary
of State Hall to the effect that he will
arbitrarily place but the one candidate
OF each party receiving the highest
vote in the June primaries on the
senatorial ballot for the fall cleo
tion. s4. ....-...a
Under the present system Of nomi-
nation in North Dakota, declare the
hlSmatck a0V1ceS, II IS conCended IN
certain circles there that the secre-
tary of state must place the names
on the ballot of the two candidates
of each party receiving the highest
vote. The fact that the legislature did
not meet in special session to amend
this feature of the law, it is rumored,
the two names must go on the ballot
for the fall election, and in that case
there will be no election of senator,
it is claimed, till the legislature does
convene and make. such an amend
ment. IT,.
Since the seventeenth amend tIerft to
the constitution has become effective,
the governor is without power to ap-
point to fill a vacancy and neither can
the legislature designate the sena-
tor. " ST..

When the possibility of such a con-
tingency was first presented in Far
go, effort was made to secure opinions
Of the best legal talent in the city
regarding this matter. ..
Secretary Hall Upheld.
One eminent Fargo attorney, when
asked about the matter said, after GER
tain deliberation and research, that
Secretary of State Halls reported in
tention Of placing but the name of the
candidate of each party receiving the
highest vote in the June primaries on
the fall senatorial ballot was absolute
ly right,
The attorney cited the various sta
tutes of the state pertaining to the
senatorial primary election law, which
he had given examination in the brief
time allotted to go into the matter
This examination caused him to doubt
whether the statements that the sec
retary of state must place the two
names on the fall ballot are justified
under the law as it now exists with re-
spect to the election of party candi-
dates for United States senator.
Section 13 of chapter 109 of the laws
of 1907, the original primary election
law, ,provided:
: Provided, however, that in case no
candidate receives 40 per cent of all
the votes of his party cast for the Of
flee of United States senator, then the
two candidates of each party who re-
ceive the highest number of votes cast
at such primary election shall be plac-
ed upon a separate ballot to be voted
for at the general election following"
This section, however was express
ly repealed by chapter 207 Of the laws
of 1911, which provide:
"The candidate receiving the high
est number of votes at such primary
election shall be the nominee of his
party for the Office Of United States
senator at the succeeding session Of
the Legislative assembly which is to
elect a United States senator The
votes for candidate for United States
senator shall be canvassed and return

s: Sen. Thomas Gore was exonerated

a verdict in his favor in the district

MYSTERY

Aurora, ILL.,, Feb. 19. - The police
discovered a new witness whose testi-
mony they believe will go far to prove
that Anthony Petras, a young mar
ried man whose suit Theresa Holland
er rejected, is the man who beat her
to death with a bludgeon in st. Mich

witness is Peter Fischbach, a fellow
student Of Petras at night school, who
said Petras left the school in the resi-
dence section saying he was going

point where Petras caught the car on

Dispatches from Mexico City
just year ago today averred that
Feb. 19. was day to be remem-
bered in Mexican history. It saw
the sudden rise of Gen. Victoriano
Huerta from a long career as mil
itary commander to the head of
the government. Generals who had
been defending President Madero
from the fire of revoIutionists un-
der Gen. Felix Diaz, gave way to
intrigue, forced Madero's resisna-
tion and made him prisoner. He
was later shot to death. A con-
gress in the streets Of the capital
just a year ago tonight elected
Huerta provisional president.
