bURTNESS LEADS;
0'C0NN0R SECOND
In Campaign Expenses Ac-
cording to Their Filed
Statements.

0. B. Burtness states attorney, paid
out the largest amount OF any of the
candidates at the recent state election,
according to the expense accounts
which have been filed up to date at
the office Of County Auditor Hans An
derson.
MIR. Burtness spent s1S3.24 on his
campaign according to his filed state
ment. His opponent j. f. T. O'Con-
nor. spent $1SO.41, being next to Mr..
Burtness in the matter Of eXpendi-
lures.
Generally speaking the republican
candidates accounts show larger ex-
penditures than do the democrats for
the reason that most of the repub-
licans contributed $50 each to the
county campaign fund while no such
contributions were made by the dem
OcratS.
The smallest expense account
among the candidates who had any
expenditures at all to report was that
turned In by Justice Phil McLough-
lin, whose bill for stamps and sta
tionery came to 80 cents.
Several candidates had no cam
paign expenses whatsoever. among
these being Miss Beatrice JOhnstone,
county superintendent of schools.
A number of accounts have not been
filed as yet. In such cases candidates
must obtain excuses from the district
judge in order to avoid the payment
of the fine of $25 per day provided
by law.
Statements were filed late Wednes-
day by:
