All Filings for County Offices
Now In

ALPS set for the primaries June
Is. On the stroke of 6 O'Clock
Wednesday afternoon time expired
for those who would become candi-
dates for county offices to file with
Auditor Odin Halden.
The day furnished many sur
prises. At the last hour, K. E.
Forsell of Lake Dinham filed for
the Office of county superintendent
of schools, thereby necessitating
the printing of approximately TO-
900 additional ballots for women
who have the right of suffrage in
Minnesota in the election of school
officials. His candidacy assures a
primary contest for the office, as
there are now three candidates.
N. A. Young. the incumbent, and
Franklin A. Arnold are the others
seeking the Office. Their names
would have gone on the ticket for
the general election as the nomi-
nees had not the race developed
into a three-cornered contest. One
of the trio will be eliminated at the
primary election. Mr.. Forsell is a
schoolteacher at the unorganized
school in Ellsburg.
Four county officials are assured
of denomination and reelection be-
cause of no opposition. They are:
Geo. H. Vivian, treasurer; S. w.
Gilpin, judge of probate; Warren
E. Greene, county attorney and
Charles F. McComb, coroner.
There will be no primary con-
tests for two other county offices,
they being county auditor and
county commissioner of the Sixth
district. The names of the two
candidates for each will be placed
on the general election ticket as
nominees. A primary contest for
the Office of the register of deeds
was assured yesterday when B. F.
Smith, Virginia, filed notice of his
candidacy. The others seeking
the office are Charles Calligan, in
cumbent, and P. J. Borgstrom
