U. S,DEMOCRATS
WILL ! III. AID All PARTY
IN This STATE
LANCER Rules Burleigh
County Democrats OFF
the Ballot.

Bismarck N. D., Aug. 12.-Attor-
ney General LANCER has ruled the
Democratic legislative and state ticket
off the Burleigh county ballot with the
Of one candidate, Harry A..
Thompson, who is seeking the shreiv-
atty. Mr.. LANCER rules that to secure
a place on, the Democratic ticket each
OF the successful candidates must have
received 10 votes, this being the re-
quired percentage OF the vote cast in
this county by Democrats in the last
general election. Mr.. Thompson, for
whom 126 votes were cast, was the
only Democratic candidate who re-
ceived this number.
j. M. Thompson, Victor Moynier
and F. O.. Helstrom, the Democrats
three candidate for the legislature,
cannot go on the ballot, rules Mr..
Langer, because each candidate re-
ing would leave the league with q free
hand in Burleigh county at the polls
in November. The Democrats, how
ever, have expressed the intention of
putting up a full county ticket by in
dividual petition. The only bar ia
such a procedure is the fact that
there is q Democratic ticket with N.
A. Thompson as its candidate for sher-
iff. Mr.. Thompson is said to have
agreed to withdraw and to cast his LOT
with the Independent Democratic
ticket to be nominated by petition
The Democrats believe they have
more than fighting chance to elect
their legislative candidate at the
polls, and they plan to put up a stiff
fight for. them.
Tho State Campaign.
National Committeeman H. H
Perry has written the Burleigh county
Democratic central committee that al
active campaign is to be waged fol

legislative and congressional ticket
