who showed the slightest sparkle
Of ability as an artist ever received

is so with Mr.. Gibson the owner.
He holds now and shall continue to

Mr.. Gibson does not know when
he struck the zenith Of his popu-

from morning till night and every

The Portlandites are the best boosters
in the world. They call their heavy
rains mist. They made a great hit
with the visitors.
On the way out the Shrine trains
stopped several hours at Glacier Park
where the visitors danced in the big
hoteE They stopped eight hours in
Spokane, were taken to the Masonic
Temple, where the visitors were dined

RESULT
UNCERTAIN;; LANCER.
IN Lead BY 5000
Early Returns Indicate That Election
is Close With Townley Majorities
Cut Down Materially.

Great interest has been taken in
the primary election held in North
Dakota Wednesday, but up to the time
that the Independent went to press,
the results appear very uncertain, so
much so that the Independent will not
even venture prediction as to whe-
Their Frazier or LANCER has been NOM
mated for governor.
The returns up to o'clock this
afternoon, shows LANCER leading Fra
zier by 1887 votes with the votes of
755 precincts out of 1904 in the state
counted. These votes are from many
of the rural districts and from Lang
er's strongholds in the cities. It is
expected that this lead will be cut
down materially, if not wiped cut en-
tirely when all of the returns are
counted.
At o'clock, Langer's majority had
been cut down to 5000.
That the ant-Townley forces have
made big gain, may be noted from
the fact that today LANCER holds a
lead Of $500, with 5000 votes count
ed, where two years ago Frazier was
in the lead by 1900. It will be late
tonight or early Friday morning, be-
1oiS VIC lCouitS VIII De ueHilllely
known.
Shortly before the Independent went
to press, it was learned that LANCER
has Al 900 Of the votes calculated to
$4,000 for Frazier. With $4,000
votes in, it is believed that there can
be no more 10000 votes to be counted
and if these figures are authentic, ii
does not seem improbable that LANCER
can possibly be beaten. The rest. Of
the state ticket appears to be running
well with LANCER.
The fight between Gronna and Ladd
for the U. S. Senate is close, with
Gronna in the lead at present.
Norton appears to be making
strong run for Congress from the
Third district.
In the Ward county election, SEQ
field for Sheriff; Herigstad for states
attorney; Kennard for auditor, and
Engeseth for register Of deeds, and
Henderson for Clerk of District Court,
appear to be in the lead but the fight
is close. Inasmuch as this is non
partisan election in the county, two
names will appear on the ballot in the
fall for each office, where two can
didates have filed.
In the contest for County Treasurer,
Mostad and eleven are leading and
it appears that Nedrud has been de-
feated.
The following are some of the re-
turns received today:

OTTO ELLISON 81 VS. SHRINERS
HAD GREAT TIME IN PORTLAND

Otto Ellison, who joined the KEN
Temple Shriners on their trip to Port
land, returned Tuesday elated over
his western visit. Portland was visit
ed by $4,000 Shriners last week and
they were taken care of very nicely.
Ten thousand auto loads of Mobiles
were taken out on the beautiful IS
mile drive along the Columbia high
way and as the autos passed, little
school children would throw great
armsful of fragrant roses into the
cars. The people of Poland turned
their autos over to the visitors during
the week. Each day big Shrine pa
rade was held One day the people
stood in line four hours while the
parade, made up of 80 bands, drum
corps, patrols, chanters, Egyptian
dancers, and other units, passed. The
North Dakota Shriners made great
showing, both KEN and Ell Zagal Tenn
pies. The KEN Temple band from
Grand Forks was given the high honor
of heading the parade for the Port
land Rose Carnival, the big annual
event. There was a rain all during
the parade and the uniforms were

his statements are terse and clear

his subject with Judiciary mind, and
takes a broad view Of these opinions

making humorous statement, he has
a peculiar and pleasing way of giving
a mirthful laugh. He fairly bubbles
over with good humor and those who
heard him will have to agree with
William Jennings Bryan, who declared
while in Mfnot a few days ago that
Mr.. Taft is the most lovable man in

petition in armament. Under the
present system, every nation must
view it's friendly neighbor as pos

a nation going to war as suggested
by the League would create a paraly-
sis of business and no nation with
the possible exception Of the United

under that condition.
Mr.. Taft was given the closest at

Among the other items >of interest
to Marion county taxpayers that are con-
tained IN the report of the state board
of accounts on the affairs of Marion
county which was recently suppressed by
both the state board and the auditor,
Leo K. Fesler, is one concerning the
hardwood floors in that part Of the
Jail known as the residence
Although the Jail was permitted to
deteriorate TO such an extent that it was
possible for more than twenty prisoners
to make their escape at one time and
the county officials were loud in their
declarations that it was greatly in need
of repairs, S141 was expended by the
county on the hardwood floors in thar,
part Of the Jail used by the sheriff as
his residence
This expenditure is particularly in
teresting in view of the fact that in
federal court it was shown that there
were not sufficient drinking cups in the
county jail to make it possible for those
persons not afflicted with loathsome
diseases to get a drink without using the
same cups as those who were so afflicted.
The suppressed report is as follows:

The laborites take the attitude that
Great Britain, chiefly instrumental in
forcing the bolsheviki 10 modify their
armistice terms, should now exert all
possible pressure on the Poles to compel
acceptance Of the proposals which pre-
viously were approved by Premier Lloyd
George.

labor party declared that body had helped
to induce the reds to withdraw the OBJ
jecdonable terms-thus removing the OBJ
strucuons to peace--and urged that the
British and Russians simultaneously pub
Hsh the fUll terms on which peace can
be obtained.
Unofficial reports would indicate that

effective lighting units in Poland.
The number OF reds engaged was esti-

The number Of prisoners taken by the
Poles was said to be nearly $1,000, while
