Non-P PartisansHeld
Legislative Caucus
Selected Complete New Independent
Legislative Ticket in Place of Re-
gular Republican Nominees

/ The 10Th district republican legis
lative ticket nominated at the pri.
mary election in June, will be op-
posed at the general election by a
set Of Independent candidates NAM
ed by the Non-Partisan League. At
a meeting held at Mott by Is dele
gates from Adams and Hettinger
county, a new ticket for state sena-
tor and representatives were selected.
O. II. Upland who was defeated for
the republican nomination for state
senator by II. P. jacobson, was
named to head the League slate for
senator, while two Adams county
men were chosen as candidates for
representative.
Sioux county was not represented
at the Mott meeting and no candi-
date was selected there to oppose j.
NJ. Carignan of Fort Yates, who is
one of the republican nominees for
representative from the district. It
is understood that since then state
representative of the Non-Partisan
League has been in consultation
with the officers of the Sioux County
Voter 3 League and prevailed upon
Robert Goudreau of Selfridge to op-
pose J. NJ. Carignan as an indepen-
dent candidate.
The Mott Spotlight last week con-
tanned the following report Of the
meeting held there:
A meeting Of the Non-Partisan
League was held at the court house
at Mott, September 9Th, at which
time League delegates from the 10th
legislative district gathered for the
purpose of deciding as to whether
action should be taken as to sup
porting the regular republican NOM
inees who were successful at the
June primaries, or bringing out
candidates to make the run inde-
pendent at the November election.
The 10th district, representing
Hettinger, Adams and Sioux coun-
ties, is entitled to one senator and
three representatives. At the pri-
maries. the League candidates were
unsuccessful, causing the meeting
at this time.
The meeting was in charge of H.
E. Behrens, Non-Partisan League
organizer. There were 18 delegates
present, eleven from Adams county
and seven from Hettinger county,
Sioux county not being represented
The delegates were asked to en-
dorse O. H. Upland for state sena-
tor. "A number of them believed
that the republican nominee at the
primaries, H. P. Jacobsen, should
be endorsed and this caused ballot

Opened Hotel

Louis Endres, who is acting as
manager of the Standing Rock
Hotel during the fair week rush, is
about the busiest man in town. He
has borrowed enough furniture and
bedding to furnish the hotel and
the extra accommodations thus pro-
vided has been a great help in car
ing for the crowd. Many more
could have been given sleeping ac-
commodations had beds and bed
ding been available.

where politics never slumbers nor
sleeps. Out in Indiana, no matter how
disastrously a party may be defeated
at an election. the day after the cleo

party will win hands down the next
time.

How do you like the hot weather."
This insulting and annoying question
has been frequently asked during the
past three days by thoughtless persons
who seem to take delight in irritating
those Of 'Fairmont's citizens who are
vainly endeavoring to keep cool, and
who are almost afraid even to speak
Of the heat.
Already today last years July hot
day record has been beaten for tenn
perature and several thermometers
aobut the city are registering 10l de-
grees this afternoon. The maximum
for last July was 81 and occurred on
July 10. The, maximum yesterday was
SO and perhaps the breeze that has
cooled Fairmont all day is the only
reason that no heat prostrations have
yet. been reported.
Local weather prophets predict that
the record for the past twenty-five
years will be broken unless rain falls
this week. The highest July temper.
ature ever recorded in this section
was in 1895 when themercury reached
107 in July.
