ly and they voted straight, indi.
eating that they have learned to
vote for principle and not fol
men.
The vote indicates that the
league will elect every officer in
both Sheridan and Daniels coun.
ty at the November elections.
B. K. Wheeler and the entire
league ticket carried Sheridan
county by majorities of about
=. seven to one, and there is very
little difference between the to-
tails.
The contest that overshaded
everything else in Sheridan and
Roosevelt counties was the Judi
cial contest, the old gang of both
counties straining every muscle
and effort to nominate C. E.
Conner, now on the bench as the
appointee of Governor Stewart
and a former member of the
Sheridan County Council of De-
Tense, over A. w. Stangeland,
the league and labor candidate,
on the Democratic ticket.
Stangeland however showed
Conner under, receiving in the
district, with s more precincts,
Stangeland precincts, to hear
from, on the democratic ticket,
2,057 votes to Comer's 573 votes
in the entire district. Stangeland
received 1912 votes on the de-
mocratic ticket in Sheridan
county, to Comer's 28O votes.
On the Republican ticket,
Conner received in the district
857 votes and Stangeland receiv-
ed about so votes on the Repub-
lican ticket. Conner received on
both the Republican and Demo-
cratic ticket the total number of
143O votes, in the precincts re-
ported. Stangeland will have a
clear majority of about 800 votes
when the reports, are all in. This
indicates that the election of
Stangeland for Judge in the fall
election is beyond a doubt and
the fact that the people of the
twentieth judicial district have
repudiated c. E. Conner and will
have nothing of him.
Another interesting feature of
the Sheridan county election was
the race between J. j. Gunther
and L. J. Onstad for the nomin-
alton for the Office of county at
torney on the republican ticket.
No one filed for the nomination,
but the friends of both parties
worked for the nomination Of
their favorite, but it seems that
Gunther is the more popular
man. at least he got the most
votes. AS reported in the Pro-
ducers News some time ago, thu
old gang supported Gunther for
county attorney as the price for
his laying down and retiring
from the race for the republican
nomination for judge. The state
ment proves true and indicates
that Mr.. Gunther has been deal
