Divide County Bond
Issue Is Eni0ined

Minot. N. D., May 18.--suit has
been brought in the district court
Of Divide county by GreenleIf.
Wooledge and Lesk, attorneys Of
this city, to restrain the county
commissioners and county auditor
Of Divide county from selling or
doing any act whatever in refer
once to the sale OF the court house
and Jail bonds or from levying any
tax for the payment Of the prlnei-
pal and interest thereon, which
bonds were purported to have been
voted at the special election held
coincident with the late presiden-
tial primary election in March.
Judge Leighton Of the distric:
court has issued a temporary In
functional order in the matter anG
ing On the merits at later date.
The suit is brought at the instance
of John Nelson. a resident and tax
payer of Divide county. and is
against the county of Divide as a
municipal corporation, and +. M.
Truax. O. K. Otteson and Frank
Bakewell. county commissioners.
and W. f. Vadnais. county auditor
OIL DlVlue county.
The validity Of the bonds are at
tackled on several special points.
among which are the following:
That the rate of interest which
the bonds should bear was not spe-
cited and fixed in the notice of
election and other proceedings had
prior to the election and which
constitute the basis upon which the
bonds are to be issued. 1t is alleg-
ed that the fixing of the maximum
rate of interest instead Of fixed
rate is violation of the law, and
that the bonds are therefore in
valid. 1t is also alleged that It was
the intent and purpose of the coun-
ty commissioners, according to the
notice of election and other pro-
ceedings had in the matter, to erect
separate buildings for court house
and Jail and that these separate
buildings should be upon different
sites. and that the combining Of
the two buildings into one, as is
now the intent and purpose, is not
compliance with the law. 1t ia
charged that $4,000 bonds pro-
posed for a Jail were tor that spe-
cific purpose and that no part Of
the money arising from the sale of;
these bonds so voted can be used
for the purchase of a site or erec-
tion of court house. The COM
plaint alleges that the two propo-
sitions were combined in the cleo
ton notices and ballots, thus maxi
ing them illegal.
1t is charged that the notice Of
election did not specify the hours
and time that the polls at said
election would be kept open, as re-
uuired by law. Another point ia
that the county commissioners did
not provide bond ballots in at least
three of the voting precincts of tn~
county on the day the election was
held. 1t Is also charged that at
these precincts large number Of
electors appeared and demanded
to vote on the question but that
they could not do 80 because of
the absence Of ballots. The plain
tiff alleges that had these ballots
been delivered to the precincts
mentioned and the election been
held therein 80 that the electors
could have voted. the result Of the
election would have been the de-
feat of the proposition of bonding
the county for the purposes spcci-
fed.

Seminole Pharmacy Names Viii
SON Before Election
5000 Druggists Polled 951, 1886
Votes

President Wilson's victory at
the polls yesterday is a striking
verification of the prediction made
by this newspaper long before e.
lection day.
Three weeks ago, the 5000
members of the Rexall Druggists
Association of which the Semi
mole Pharmacy is a member began
to take a straw vote of their Gus
toners. The members of the AS
ISOLATION being scattered all over
the United States, were able to
reach 1896 voters drawn from
all walks of life. 1t was the big
gest straw vote ever taken and
was made possible only by the ma
tional character of the organiza-
ton.
Realizing this fact the Punta
Gorda Herald made arrangements
with the Seminole Pharmacy, a
member of the Rexall Druggists
Association in Punta Gorda to
publish the returns from the straw
vote.
The druggists throughout the
country mailed or telegraphed the
results of the votes cast by their
customers to the national head
quarters in Boston. There the vot-
es were tabulated and the results
of the balloting from all the states
were announced by daily bulletins
mailed from Boston and which
were posted in the 5000 Rexall
Stores, and published in the lead
ing papers of the community.
The first Straw Vote bulletin,
sent out October Goth, showed
Wilson in the lead. The second
bulletin, issued October 9th
showed Hughes in the lead by one
electoral vote. From that date
each and every bulletin recorded
steady gains for Wilson, both in
the popular and the electoral vote
The final Straw Vote dated No.
vember 9th gave Wilson 554,50C
popular votes against 396,S96 fol
