new PRIMARY Law
WORRIES SCHMAHL
HE MAY FOLLOW 1918 STYLE IN
PREPARING STATES PRESI-
DENTAL BALLOTS.
AMENDMENTS COMPLICATED
THE LAW ALLOWS DOUBLE CON-
STRUCTION-ASK ATTORNEY
GENERALS ADVICE

ST. Paul, Nov. 17.-Julius Schmahl
secretary of state, has about conclud-
ed that he will follow the 1918 presi-
Dental primary law in making up the
ballots for the primary to be held next
March.
He finds the wording of the 1915
amendment too complicated and too
uncertain in meaning for practical
use, and he cites particularly this
clause of Section 391, defining the
duties of the secretary of state and
county auditors:
"The several officers whose duty it
is to prepare such ballots shall cause
to be printed therein the number of
delegates and electors each elector US
ing such ballot is entitled to vote for
delegates, which shall be listed under
and the names of the candidates for
the names of the respective affidavits
of such candidates for delegates. Such
ballot shall also be printed so as to
afford an opportunity for the person
using the same to express his choice
for the office of vice president"
The affidavits declare the choice of
the delegate for President and vice
president and pledge the candidate
for delegate to carry out to the best
of his ability the wishes of the voters
of his political party as expressed at
such election.
There is a double instruction there,
for the candidate is also required to
make an affidavit stating his choice
for President. Suppost a majority of
Minnesota Republicans voted for Root
and yet Burton delegate was elected.
Should he vote for Root, or vote for
Burton?
Secretary Schmahl believes it suf-
ficient if. the candidate for delegate
pledges himself to support the candi-
dates for President and vice president
favored by majority of Republicans
voting at the primary.
He will consult with Attorney Gen
eral Smith about the matter as soon
as the later returns from Ada on
Thursday, and he will try to have the
ballotsand the filing blanks complet-
ed by December list, so candidates for
places on the delegation can begin fl
ing.

VIII Be of Great Aid to State

Luverne Journal: The Sank Centre
Herald came along last week with it's
Greater Minnesota Edition. The edi-
ton consisted of five sections for a
total of 40 pages, printed on high
grade book paper. The press work was
the finest of any of the booster edi-
tions we have seen, the printing and
half tones showing UP splendidly. In
subject matter the edition was as good
as the best, though it would be unfair
to say it was better. OF the hundreds
of booster editions issued the past
month by the country papers of Min
nesota those of the Sank Centre Her
aid, the Long Prairie Leader, the Pipe
stone Star, the Thief RIVER Falls Times,
the Mapleton Enterprise. the Pipestone
Leader. the Murray County Herald, the
Jackson Republic, the Winnebago En-
terprise, the Jackson Pilot, and Hills
Crescent were the best that came to
you that we're not afraid to say a
good word for "the other fellow" we
extend compliments to the staff of the
Rock County Herald, which issued a
very creditable edition Oct. 15-though
we understand no effort was made by
that paper to produce a world beat
err" All these papers contained scores
of columns Of live truths respecting
the great possibilities of not only their
immediate communities but the entire
state of Minnesota. The papers were
dist ributed, by the hundreds of thous-
ands, all over the United States, and
cannot but help interest thousands of
people who hitherto had not known
what a great empire the Gopher state
really is.

DIES IN FRANCE AFTER ILLNESS
Father of A. J. Kirghis Dies After
Short Illness-Death Caused by
Attack of Pneumonia.

Harold Edward Kirghis, father of
DR.. A. J. Kirghis of this city, died
yesterday at his home in St.. Ramb-
ert, France, after an illness of one
week, says Tuesday evenings St.
Cloud Journal-Press. DR.. Kirghis was
called to France by the illness of his
father but from this Mr.. Kirghis had
recovered and DR.. Kirghis and his
father were preparing to come to
this country where Mr.. Kirghis was
to make his home with his son, when
he was taken sick with pneumonia.
He was stricken a week ago.
DR.. Kirghis will return to the Unit
States Immediately and will probably
be here within two weeks.

change table of late (and there are
quite few we must say that the
special edition of the Sank Centre Her
aid of last week was one of the best
that we have had the pleasure of re-
ceiving. The Herald contained 40 pages
printed on an excellent grade of book
paper and with great care as to neat
ness and arrangement It contained
several very fine articles and views of
Sank Centre and vicinity and carried
but very little display advertising
which helped greatly it's appearance.
Bro. Wallace and his able assistants
are to be congratulated not only by
the newspaper fraternity but by the
people of Sank Centre as well.

The Most deliberately Printed.

Grand Rapids Independent:
The Minnesota Week" special ed1-
lions continue to appear. Probably
the most deliberately printed and got
ten out number came out this week
when the Sank Centre Herald's 4O-page
edition made it's appearance. The
Thief River Falls News-Press had q
most creditable edition, both from
mechanical standpoint and from the
quality of matter it contained. Prob
ably the best boost edition of the
whole works, however, was the Long
Prairie Leader, Rudolph Lees paper
which, while not as large as some, was
replete with facts that talked as
though Todd County had the goods
put up in a most convincing manner
Another late booster edition is the
Spooner News which came out las
week and which was put up in char
acteristic Eriscon style, and which
should do much to boost the Spooner
Beaudette country.
