GRANT COUNTY SEAT CASE
Sen. Cahill, Representing Leith,
Contests Suffragettes'
Privileges .
GRANT COUNTY SEAT CASE

The supreme court is asked today
by Sen. J. !. Cahill of Leith, on behalf
Of his native village, to determine
whether Chapt. 254 Of the session
laws of 1917, which partially extends
the elective franchise to women, is
constitutional. The legislature in 1917
approved constitutional amendment
extending full suffrage to women,
and which will be submitted to the
voters at the fall election for their ap-
proval. At the same session the leg.
islature passed an act giving women
the privilege of voting for all offices
and on all questions not embraced in
the constitution. Under this act wOm-
en- have voted in numDer OF local
elections and one state primary.
The issue in (which Senator Cahill
is interested is the county seat fight
in Grant. Leith was one OF the con.
testants at the recent primary for
the honor now held by Carson,
through selection by Governor Han.
mas board of county commissioners.
Elgin received 1000 votes, Carson 1856
and Leith 1872: The law provides that
the two highest shall 60 on the ballot
at the fall election, when the location
of the county seat will be finally de-
termined Senator Cahill contends:
that under Chapt. 254 Of the 1917 ses-
sion laws women voted in the pri.
mary election, and that IS more wtm-
en- voted to nominate Carson than
those who voted for Leith. Counting
out these 76, Senator Cahill says
Leith would have second place in the
primary and would 20 on the final
ballot. He contends that Chapt. 254 is
unconstitutional because it mad Lot
then and has not since been submit
ted to vote of the electors as re-
quired by Sec. 122 of the constitution.
In the 18th judicial district, where
Senator Cahill originally brought his
contest the action was dismissed
when the court sustained demurrer
of the defendants, who are Commits
sioner Mcdowell and other members
of the Grant county election board.
who cOntended that the court was
without Jurisdiction, that there was no
authority of law for the proceedings
Of the contestants, and that the lat
ter had no grounds for action. The
case arrives in supreme court today
on an appeal from the order of the
lower court sustaining this demurrer.
Nuchols & Kelch. of Mandan represent
the petitioners and appellants, and
John F. Sullivan of Mandan and
States Attorney l. N. Steen of Grant
county represent the election board.
The case is of general interest in
view of the fact that the supreme
courts decision as to the right of the
legislature by statute to extend the
right of suffrage to women may af-
feet the standing Of women electors in
Indiana and Illinois, where they enjoy
their privilege also by acts of legisla-
ture and not by constitutional amend
ment

LEAGUE CLAIM
Anthony Walton Brings Election
Contest Suit TO Supreme
>.,' Court ~-.
RULED OUT ON LIMITATION
Judge X. E. Leighton Sustained
Demurrer in Ward County
Tribunal
RULED OUT ON LIMITATION

That registration on the part of the
voter is obligatory is the principal
contention of Anthony Walton, J. f.
Erb and Bert Solberg, defea ted league
Legislative candidates from War coun-
ty, in their election contest against
Ben Olson, Guy 'Humphries, o. J. Clev-
en- and George Reishus, successful can
didates for the Republican nomination
in the recent primaries. which is be-
Ing argued on an appeal from the
Ward county district court in su-
preme court today.
The nomination Of the anti-league
Legislative candidates in Ward coun-
ty at the June primaries was contest
ed originally by Walton. Erb and Sol
berg on the grounds that 1000 votes
were sworn in at Minot on primary
election day The contestants con-
tend that the primary laws require
that voters register in the regular
manner, and that 1000 voters could
not legally have failed to register, un-
less they had been permanently i'll
for the last two years or more. Even
when the registration boards are now
in session on registration day, voters
may register with the county auditor
or other officer qualified to accept
tehir registration, the leaguers as
sert. These thousand voters only le-
gitimate excuse for not having regis
tered. contend the league trio, would
he that they had been out of their
n1iS of yet Inc "
days prior to the primary election.
Walton, who was high man among
the league legislative candidates, was
defeated by "a votes. The leaguers
contend that If the 1000 Minot votes
which: they assert were not legally reg.
istered are thrown. out, the contest:
ants, Walton, Erb and Solberg will
have been nominated. Whether the
supreme court will rule upon this
principal question is doubtful. Tho
issue on which the contestants ap-
peal to the supreme court is the order
of Judge Leighton sustaining de-
murrer of the defendants to the con-
testants' petition.
An appeal is taken from an order
of Judge X. r. Leighton. dismissing
the action of the contestant and ap-
pellant on the deefndants' demurrer.
holding that the statute of limitations,
requiring that an election contest must
be brough within ten days after the
canvassing board had certified the re-
suit of its canvass, had been violated
The lower court sustained the de-
murrer The only issue involved is
the date upon which the canvassing
board completed its labor. The de-
fense contends that this date was JUL
8, 1918, and that affidavit of contest
was not filed by the appellants until
July L.. II days thereafter The ap-
pellants contend that the canvassing
board did not officially complete it's
work until July II. and that the affi-
davit of ~~+est was filed within the
prescribed ten days

CITY REGISTRATION

*-The count in Wards One and
Three was made at noon. 1t is prob.
able that during the three hours from
to ; the totals in these wards we're
materially increased, and /: is safe to
conclude that at press time, p. M,
the total registration for the city is
more than 800. General CrOwder's es-
innate that the present registration
will be one-third greater than that of
June 5. 1917, will not apply to cities
such as Bismarck. where voluntary en-.
listment of boys under the former
draft limit of 81 has been very gen.
eral.
When Eismarck's six registration
boards complete their labors at 9
o'clock this evening it is probable that
at least one thousand blue cards will
be securely tucked away in as many
patriotic pockets. The actual count
at o'clock this afternoon was AL,
but from two of the largest wards this
report was based on figures taken at
II o'clock Many Bismarckers who
went to work early this morning will
not find time to register until after
supper this evening, when the regis
trars probably will put in two busy
hours
The second general registration day
in Bismarck has passed off without
unusual event of any kind. Regis
trants began presenting themselves
as early as O'clock. and there has
been steady stream at all the regis
tration places from that time on.
In Ward One early this morning an
Illinois registrant presented himself
iwth reque.C that Uncle Sam furnish
him with transportation for visit to
his old home before he goes into SER
vice. He was advised that. this was a
detail over which the registration
board had no jurisdiction. In Ward
Four one Turk, and Chinaman had
registered early. this afternoon. Ward
Five reported Turk, a Syrian, sew
eral Greeks and one Pawnee Indian,
Bert Short Bear of Oklahoma, in the
city en- route to visit relatives among

PEACE BURDEN
UPON ALLIES

Amsterdam, Sept 12.-Speaking .
the Krupp munition works at Essen,
Emperor William declared that every
one in the remotest corner of the
Fatherland knew that he had left no
stone unturned to shorten the war as
far as possible for your people and
for the entire civilized European
wOrld."
The emperor said it took two to
make peace, that one could not do it
unless he could overcome the other.
Germany was confronted with her en-
emy's will to destroy her and she
mus tpreserve her existence.
After mentioning his offers of
peace, the emperor said the leaders
had made it plain to everyone who
wished to understand .'that we are at
all times ready to offer the hand of
peace"

THEY SAVED THE !
PEACH PITS; MAKE
YOUR OWN MORAL

Some capitol girls are obeying
Uncle Sans injunction to save
peach pits for the protection Of the
Yanks against Hunnish gas. AT
their boarding house they had five
pits laid aside, and then they turn
ed up missing. They discovered
that a lady of the house, ignorant
of the part which these pits were
to play in the war, had thrown
them away. They insisted that the
pits must berestored, and to make
good measure they claimed six of
them. And a very distrait lady,
after recovering five perfectly good
pits, spent, half day prospecting
until she discovered sixth. It
was not of this years crop, but she
had made good the half-dozen, and
done her bit, and now the capitol
girls wonder whom the joke is on.
There may be a point to this story.
