VICTORY FEST
AT SPIRIIW00D

From many parts OF the state nave
come suggestions and requests for
the holding, at some central point.
of a celebration over the results of
the June primary election, in which
so much was accomplished by the
anti-Socialist voters Of the state.
To meet this demand, and to fur
ther consider preparations for con-
tinuing the campaign into the No.
vember election, to complete the
victory, it becomes necessary that a
state wide call be made for such
meeting and celebration.
At the suggestion of the committee
in charge of the June campaign, O. J.
Seller of Jamestown, formerly named
as chairman of the committee to or
ganize the state, on what is known as
the "Stutsman county plan" and later
named as chairman of the state Ian
ger for Governor club" has issued the
notice, and call for victory celebra-
tion by the anti-socialists at Spirit
wood Lake Saturday, July 81. The
following is the call:
While the recent primary election
did not fully meet the wishes Of the
numerous friends of the anti Soc
ialist leader - the Townley McKen-
zie machine - in North Dakota, yet
the final results were a splendid VIC
tory when their enormous vote Of two
years ago is considered.
Frazier's majority for governor was
cut to $500 from previous majority
Of $4,000.
Cahill, the red flag exponent, was
defeated by Thomas Hall by 5000.
Walker, socialist, for treasurer
was defeated by John Steen by 5000.
Miss Johnson, socialist, for super
intendent, was defeated by Miss Mel
son by 10000.

ture will carry anti -Townley in Nov
ber
Stutsman, Barnes, Dickey, Foster,
Burleigh, Richland Cass, Trail,
Nelson, Logan, Mcintosh and nu-
merous other counties made land
slide turn backs to the fundamentals
Of constitutional government.
The anti-red flag law carried and
will soon be a state law in spite Of
the socialist leaders who have in
tested our state capital.
The State Sheriff's law was de-
feated.
