PRIMARY ELECTION RESULTS.

There was no particular news yes
terday on the primary election, ex-
cept those gathered here and there
from individuals. There will be none
until the official count is made in the
counties and the returns are sent in
and canvassed by the state officials.
in the meantime all reports will be on
reported or unofficial returns.
The vote as given on 81 counties
out OF o3 stands 35,4S9 for Carlson
and 81 ,569 for Nicholson. The Demo
cratic vote for Gunter was very light
all over the state, he having no op-
position.
The vote on lieutenant governor is
close and has aroused much interest
inasmuch as Judge Pulliam made a
wonderful race in the primaries.
While the tabulated returns published
in the daily press indicate that Car
ringer has a slight lead, outside re-
/ )orts on precincts recently heard from
give Judge Pulliam the lead.
1t still appears that Gabbert and
Allen have been nominated by the Re
1ublicans for the supreme bench and
that the Democrats have nominated
Bailey and Wheeler.
Rees claims the nomination for at
torney general and Thorson for au-
ditor on the Republican ticket. Hub
bard and Leckenby have been select
ed by the Democrats to oppose them
in the coming election. Neither Ra-
mer nor Allen had opposition for sec
retary of state, but Ramer's vote
seems to be double that Of Aliens.
The same may be said for Mulinx and
Higgins who had no opposition for
the nomination for treasurer. Mrs.
Wilson easily won the nomination for
state superintendent. Her opponent
will be Mrs. Bradford who received
very small primary vote over the
state according to returns reported.

which no one knows anything about
srd which can be brought in to play
4 little later on.
With all the votes in the paper,
t would be an easy matter for any
,ne to see exactly what you have
ana how many votes it would take to
beat you in the end.
Encourage your favorite contestant
by letting her know that you are
lending her your support and before
many days you will be surprised at
the number of votes that will be
credited to her standing. 1t is a
idea for contestants to de-
pend upon their friends entirely and
expect to win; show an inclination
to help your self and others will be
ready to assist you when they see
that you are in the race to win.

To sum up: The Sixty-fourth con-
gress in its first session passed much
legislation. A great deal of it is of
debatable value. Too much of it
was meant for show and to catch
votes. A great deal of it is section
al and discriminatory. More of it
was the product of outside influence
than Of the firm judgment of con-
gress itself. 1t represents the fever
ed anxiety of small men to justify
their presence in congress by doing
something. Minneapolis Journal. s.

1t has not been a strong congress.
1t has been driven by the president,
and neither political party can take
any great credit. Most Of the things
it has done have been done unwill-
irgly. This has been true of defen-
sive measures as well as of measures
taking radical departures, such az
the ship purchase and child labor

as rare as day in June or an UNDER
