Over 100000
Register To
Vote In ND.

In connection with the comment
which has been made upon the abnor-
NAL vote cast at Tuesdays election for
president OF the United States, the
secretary Of states Office announces
that more than, 100000 voters are reg
istered in North Dakota.
Ordinarily the total vote cast in the
state does not exceed IS per cent Of
the number registered. Tuesday. it is
apparent, the aggregate was close to
100 per cent, if not greater. The sec.
rotary Of states Office estimates that
probably ten percent of the legal vOt-
ers of North Dakota are not registered
because of their objection to stating
their political affiliations. It Is esti.
mated that the number Of males over
the age Of 81 in North Dakota is well
beyond $4,000. -

Patronage Question.
In any event, North Dakota federal
patronage during the coming four.
year period will be served over the
same old counter, for it isn't likely
that John Burke will be disturbed
from his post as United States treas.
urer now that North Dakota was de-
livered to the Democrats, and Mr..
Burke's presence in Washington,
where they do things on patronage,
makes him a right handy source Of
reference when the administration
finds it needs stamp FOUNDER out at
Hickory Grove, N. D., or wants to put
a United States marshal on the Job,
or district attorney on the firing
line.
Mr.. Perry of Ellendale is national
committeeman, to be true, but for
some reason or other, Democratic ma
tional committeeman in North Dakota
haven't had much to say about things
in a patronage way during the past
three years, and the future doesn't
hold prospect for increased recogni-
ton.

Fargo, N. D., Nov. 11.-There isn't

Just ask the next Democrat you

"Who put it across?" Democrat
was asked, in the presence of six 9TH

"Why, did, of course he respond
ed, and six others in unison, chorus

OF course, President Wilson will
sooner or late be appraised Of the fact
that North Dakota is in the Demo

already. Very likely he's heard the
news.

He found in the enlisted personnel at

the buildings that are to be lighted
represent the many occupations in
life which man is adapted to fulfill.
The electricity lights the churches
where the minister goes to perform
his sacred duties; it lights the banks
where the bankers go to perform their
various duties; it lights our homes
and places of amusement where we go
to enjow ourselves; it lights our con.
%gressional halls, where the laws are
made, and chambers of justice where
the law is dealt cut to man with
squareness regardless of creed or col.
or, and places of misery with the same
equal regularity. The light shines as
brightly behind the prison wall as a
light of equal power shines in places
of amusement and worship. 1t is the
power that makes the light and not
the place where it is situated. Just
so it is power that makes man. All
men are constructed on the same prin.

hood, moral uprightness, sobriety and
squareness with your feilowman makes
the difference.
Men are divided into three classes:

remark is correct. it will never come,
but they can be appropriated, and that
is what the men of will power do.
Most men belong to the second class.
Some of us belong to the third class
and We can't deny it. Our chaplain
belongs to the first class. He is the
completed electric light system, the
power that generates the lights that
has been turned on in his body-he is
a live wire.
All men may have been created
equal. but all men are lot equal, and
never will be. So long as ambition
enters into the measures of man and
free will exist there will be leaders
and followers. There will be the great

the most enjoyable evening the Post
had ever known.
During the evening the following
brilliant toast in honor of Chaplain
Prioleau was delivered by Sergeant
Marchbanks:
Ladies and Gentlemen: This post
has been installed with an electric
light system, but we are still in dark
ness insofar as the electric lights are
concerned. Man is constructed on the
same principal. We will compare him
with a big electric light system like
the one at this point. His head is the
power house, his brain the dynamo;
his arteries and veins are the wires
and the bones in his body represent
the poles that support these wires;
