TOTAL VOTE OF
STUTSMAN COUNTY
Final Results of June Primary
Election.

The county canvassing board has
completed the tabulation of the vote
of the county held June %, which
result reveals an interesting study of
the changing political sentiments of
voters of the county. The result is
also reflection of the changes that
were registered around the state.
The most notable phase of the
election was the falling off in the
vote of Governor Hanna, who was
third in the race for United States
senator both in county and in state,
and the large vote of Nestos of Mi
not, who was practically an unknown
man to many of the voters.
The result shows that the Non
Partisan League vote was strong in
the county, being about $4,000 out
of a total of about $4,000 republi-
can votes.
The Socialist vote showed a great
falling off, although the total vote of
the county is small. The democrat
ic vote also showed a great decrease,
the total for Burke and Helstrom
being only ATS. The democratic
vote in 1914 for Helstrom for gov
ernor was 1882. Hanna's vote in
1914, in the county, for governor,
was 1877.
This year the socialist candidate
for the U. S. senate had only IA
votes.
The following is the complete vote

cincts, Chase Lake and Gerber,
whose vote on the Non-Partisan Ju-
dicial ballot had not been received.
