SIX AMENDMENTS
ARE DEFEATED
Only One Initiated by the
League Carries, Hall
Says. "

Bismarck, N. D., Dec. 5.-Defeat
for all of the amendments initiated
by the Nonpartisans IN the recent
general election, with the exception
or the hail amendment, was reported
at noon today following the compile
ton of a semi-official tabulation by
the secretary of, state of official re-
turns from 81 counties and semi-of-
hcial returns from the two others.
This tabulation does not include the
total vote from nine counties, which
Is expected to increase the majority
against the amendments by approx
mately 500.
The secretary Of states tabulation
at noon showed a total vote of 3d.
5O2. The total for the constitutional
amendments providing freer methods
OF amending the constitution was
46.351 for the amendment removing
the debt limit, 46,272. and for the
amendment authorizing the state to
or state-owned public utilities, indus
tries and enterprises, 1896.
The last-named amendment would
v the necessary majority were it
not certain that the total vote in
the nine counties which have SO far
reported only the vote for governor
will Increase the whole number Of
votes cast a point where present ma
5ority of $50 for this amendment will
have been reduced to a minority of
800 or more.
No important change is expected
In the official canvass in the total
number of votes shown cast for the
amendment. Such change as there
will be will merely add to the whole
number of votes. cast and increase
the handicap which the league
amendments have to overcome.
In short, the leagues entire eco
nomic program has been r%epudiated
by he people of North Dakota, and
at least 5000 of the $1,000 leaguers
who assisted in initiating these pro-
posals. by signing the league petit
tons. refused to give the league
schemes their final endorsement at
the polls.

RED CROSS TO
KEEP AIDING
OUR SOLDIERS
Peace Plans Formulated: No
More Drives for Funds
Anticipated.

Washington. Dec. 4.-Future plans
or the American Red Cross under
winch the great organization built up
during the war, will be devoted to
peace time relief work, not only IN
the United States, but throughout the
world, were outlined in a statement
issued tonight by Henry P. Dawson,
chairman Of the war council.
Mr.. Dawson said it is confidently
believed that there need be no fur
Their campaign for funds. Instead
the annual Christmas roll call for
members will constitute the founda-
ton Of the Red Cross.
Wherever our soldiers and sailors
may be, the Red Cross will stay with
them until they are demobilized," said
Mr.. Dawson.
"The problems Of reconstruction,
involving feeding and caring for the
distressed civilian populations Of Eu-
rope, are of such magnitude that
necessarily they must be met very
largely by the governments Of our
Allies, with whom our own govern
ment will cooperate.
THE great tasks Of fighting tuber-
culosis. promoting child welfare. and
caring for refugees, with which the
American Red Cross has concerned
itself so effectively in France, Italy
and Belgium, will at an early date be
assumed by the governments, the Red
Cross organization. and the relief So
cieties of those countries.
THE war program of the American
rapidly merge itself into a peace pro-
gram. The wake of the war will,
however. reveal the prevalence of dis
ease, and give rise to epidemics and
emergencies which in all parts of the
world will call for unlimited volun-
tary efforts, the cutting Of red tape
tiles Of human sympathy which gov
eminent action cannot display.
"For the completion of it's wal work
and for the institution of its peace
program, the Red Cross is fortunate
ly in a healthy financial condition.

Bismarck, N. D., Dec. 5.-The state
board of canvassers again met We'd
nesday afternoon and again adjourned
until this afternoon without transact
ing any business. T his afternoon the
board will adjourn until tomorrow
noon, which will be the last adjourn
ment possible under the law unless it

ceived by the secretary of state last
evening. In this event, the board is
authorized by law to adjourn it's ses-
sion until the messengers return.
The publication in Nonpartisan
league organs yesterday morning I'M
der s~even-column banner lines of
claims that all Of the organizations
principal amendments have carried
by large majorities has not caused
Secretary. of State Hall to waiver in
his contention that all Of the amend
nlents are lost. The fate of the last
amendment, No. 10, authorizing the
state to engage in the ownership Of
public utilities, industries and enter
prises of any nature not specifically
prohibited by the constitution, was
sealed yesterday afternoon when the
total vote from Grand Forks and
Slope counties was officially reported,
boosting the whole number of votes
by 2O8, and reducing a majority of
$50 for amendment No. 10 to a deficit
of So. Bottineau county's official
vote showed the whole number to be
eight greater than the vote for gov
ernor. The vote on amendment No.
10 was increased four by the Bot
tineau returns. and the eight new
votes were split evenly between the
other amendments, not affecting the
final count in any respect.
Official reports on the total votes
are still to come in from eight other
counties. The present total of $3.50
will, it is expected, be increased to at
least $4,000, which will leave all Of
the amendments with from 800 to 600
less than the required majority of all
the votes cast November S.

OF Long Lost Uncle

bert Roach of Canton. N. Y, has
written County Auditor Flaherty in
what appears to be a hopeless quest
for news of an uncle, Phinnsas Roach,
whom he believes to have died some
where in this locality about 20 or rs
years ago..
IF he is not dead" writes the
New Yorker, you will have him re-
corded in your list Of voters. Yet I
think it would make him toe old to
be living, and I have reason to be-
lieve that he is not living. I under
stand that Mr.. Roach lived on a cat
tie ranch and that he died in a hotel
nearby"
County Auditor Flaherty requests
that anyone having knowledge of
such q person, communicate with
him.
