MAN WHO RUNS SECOND
CANNOT BECOME FIRST

Bismarck, March PA man who
was second in a race for a public of.
fee must remain second, even though
the candidate who finishes first, may
be disqualified, rules the North Dako-
ia supreme court in affirming the de.
cision of the Morton county district in
the case of Woll versus Jensen. H. L.
Woll and H. K. Jensen were candidates
for superintendent of schools in Nor
ton county at the last election. Jensen
finished first, and Woll then contested
his office on the ground that Woll is
not qualified under the laws of North
Dakota to be superintendent OF
schools. The ruling of the Morton
county district court against Woll now
is confirmed. The supreme court says:
"A minority vote for qualified can.
didate does not entitle such candidate
to the office, even though the candidate
receiving the highest number of votes
was disqualified to hold the Office, and
such fact was known to the voters
at the time of the election. However,
the failure of the qualified candidate
to receive plurality of the votes cast
renders the election a nullity." Which
means that Morton county must hold
a special election if it wishes to enjoy
the luxury of new county superinten.
dent of schools.

DAUGHTER WAS JUSTIFIED,

st. Paul, March q. - A broken

Jame> own Five Came Strong
Enough to Nose Out on Locals

The announcement Monday that the
jamestown Tigers were coming strong
for the game with the Valley City ag.
gregation Monday evening was not ex
aggerated. They came with their regu
lar lineup and copped the bacon, al
though it was nobody's game until the
final whistle sounded.
It was fast exhibition of basketball
on both sides, and the close score In
both halves showed the teams to be
evenly matched. The Valley City boys
apparently lost the game by little
poor passing at times. They continued
to fire the sphere at Jamestown play.
er instead of their own team and OF
course this was bound to bring dis
aster.
There was nothing to be ashamed
of in the defeat, as the Tigers have
played together all season, and the
Nifty Thrifties have been organized
but few weeks. In Monday nights
game one of the regular forwards for
Valley City was out of the game and
his absence was evidently felt.
The score for the first half stood 16
to 13 in favor of Jamestown, and the
fir2l score was 20 to 27 in their favo.
The referee was Prof Purdy, of the
Normal school.

Curren Lands Fine
Contract at Mandall

Mandan, March 27.-W. J. Curren,
the Valley City contractor, was this
morning awarded the contract for the
big Missouri Valley Grocery building,
he having the successful bid out of
nine which were submitted and open
ed yesterday. The contract provides
that the building shall be completed
and turned over to the company by.
Aug. Is.
The new building, which will be the
largest and finest wholesale grocery
house in North Dakota, will be 80x105
feet, the 80 feet facing on Main street
just at the south end of Collins ave-
nue.. It will be entirely fireproof, Of
reinforced concrete, faced with He
bron brick. There will be a 15.foot

the building, and arrangements have
been completed for sidetracks to run

be credit to the city and to western

congratulated on its rapid growth and
every citizen in Mandan should feel

North Dakota Live Stock
Has a Promising Future

Grand Forks, March 27.-The won.
derful resources of North Dakota were
never more thoroughly demonstrated
than they are today. Young among
states. North Dakota may be likened
to a sleepy young giant who did not
know his strength because he had nev-
er been called upon to exert it. In re-
cent years, there has been thorough
awakening to the call of opportunity,
until today the state has attained a po.
sition of rare distinction, placing it
well in the van among older states of
the union.
An example of this development is
found in the immense strides being
made in mixed farming in the state,
making Of it one of the most prolific
producers of live stock in the union.
1t is well known fact that the coun-
try which is constantly and thoroughly
prosperous is the country which has
forsaken the principles of single crop
age for modern methods of farm di-
versification. With this lesson learn
ed, and it is being assidously put in
practice, the state has entered upon
an era of real opportunity as an
economic factor, in the e+grain and meat
production scheme of America. ..--. .-
Yet, consistent as this progress has
been, live stock marketing has been
halted, for the reason that many farm
ers are exclusively engaged in grain
production because they are hampered
in their ambitions to adopt modern
operations through the fact that no
home market exists, shipping charges,
shrinkage, commissions and half
dozen other items incident to shipping
to eastern packing plants greatly re-
ducing their profits. Shipping live
stock out of the state and buying back
in the finished product has resulted in
the glaring economic waste to the
state of thousands of dollars each
year.
The need of keeping within it the
fruits of the states industry, and fur
ther developing its latent resources of
live stock production, has become a
prime necessity. The need, however,
did not at once supply the initiative
until the matter was taken up by the
Commercial club of Grand Forks,
whose Investigations of the subject
since has resulted with the organiza-
tion within the state, by representative
North Dakota farmers and business
men financially interested, of the
Northern Packing company at Grand
Forks, capitalized at 100000, actual
stock sales having exceeded 100000.
One hundred acres of desirable real
estate has been secured, competent
architects and engineers engaged, and
contractors bids will be received
April /. Much of the machinery and
equipment has been purchased. Ac-
tual construction will be started early
this spring, and the work rushed to
completion.
On the board of directors and the
advisory board are representative far
mers and business men of Grand
