BELIEVED LOST;
VOTE ! SHORT OF
FRAZIER BALLOT

There is every reason to believe
that the Socialist amendments to
the state constitution, on which the
Nonpartisan league leaders centered
their greatest effort. have failed Of
adoption.
The figures still are far from COM
plete, only isolated reports being
available.
The figures received, however,
show that the amendments are not
running nearly as well as did Gov
ernor Frazier, and that they will be
anywhere from IL to Is per cent uIl-.
der his vote.
Indications are, too, that the total
vote cast in the state is about 100,-
600, and that early estimates placing
Mr.. Frazier's majority at in
excess of 10000, viii be borne out.
Today, with about 20, per cent of
the vote reports, Mr.. Frazier had
41,560, and Mr.. Doyle, 30,202. There
were no reports from Mckenzie,
Mcintosh, Ward or Sioux counties
included in these figures.
Cass county is fair indication
of the amendment situation. Mr..
Frazier received 2,150 votes, while
2,06S on that amendment which
makes it impossible. for the supreme
court, except with a, four judge
opinion, to hold a legislative enact
rnent unconstitutional. The debt
limit received but Its votes, and
the public ownership amendment,
1881.
Mr.. Doyle's majority in. the
county was 1872, while the actual ma
jority against the debt limit amend
ment on the votes cast on that
question was 535, which; added to-
the ballots not marked, makes the
total majority against the amend
nent 1870, there being 7S5 unmark-
ed ballots.
Isolated reports show that coun-
ties which Mr.. Frazier carried by
from 800 to 500. gave the amend
ments an actual majority on the
votes cast on the question of about
100 to 200, while the unmarked ball
lots viii In many instances wipe
out the apparent majorities.
The Nonpartisans have given up
hope for Macdonald, and concede
Miss Nelson's election by at least
10. 900. Her majority will be greater
than that figure according to pres
ent outlooIss.
Reports from 81 counties, not All
complete, today gave Miss Nelson
81, $50. and Macdonald, 27,797. Cass
county gave Miss Nelson over three
thousand, and is her banner county.

SUMMARY OF THE WAR

Germany's hold on the Aisne from
RetheI eastward to above Vouziers
which has remained firm while the
rest of the front erumbIed, was
broken yesterday. French troops
have thrown bridges across the riV-
er and are in close pursuit Of the
foe who is abandoning vast quanti-
ties of munitions and material of war
as he fees toward the ever narrow
ing gap that leads through Belgium
to comparative safety.
VerVins has been captured. Reth-
ell has been evacuated by the Ger
mans while the French are rapidly
approaching the vital railroad CEN
ter of Hirson from the west. British
forces are moving up toward Mau-
beuae from the southwest and the
Americans in the Meuse sector are
within 4 miles of Sedan where, on
Sept. l.. 1871, the decisive battle Of
the Franco Prussian war was fought
and Napoleon Ill was taken prisoner
by the Germans.
