A CLEAN SWEEP.

The voters of Trail county made
a clean sweep in the election Of their
legislative ticket. The entire county
is IN one legislative district in which
the senator holds over and three house
members were TO be elected. Three
independent candidates, Messrs uel-
and. johnson and Ellington, received
respectively 1898, 1898 and 1924 votes.
1t is no often that three candidates
running on the same ticket keep SO
close together. N
The Leagus candidates. Messrs
Moen. strom and Ncsvig were given
respectively 1884, 100 and 1897 votes.
There is not a very wide> range here.
but the lowest vote in the trio was
cast for Mr.. Nesvig, who in the late
legislative session objected to the re-
ception Of a petition from the women
OF Hatton for the repeal Of obnoxious
education laws on the ground that he
did not want the record numbered
with such trash. Mr.. Nesvig had been
rewarded for his services in the pro-
motion of Townley legislation by =
place on the smelling committee,
which evidently did not increase his
popularity with his home people.

4 DEFEAT FOR SOCIALISM,

From the time when election re-.
turns began to b~esreceived The Herald
has given them to It's readers, and has
shown ,how the early majority for
LANCER diminished until vt finally dis
appeared. Yesterday afternoon for the
first time the Frazier vote actually
reported exceeded the vote actually
reported for LANCER. The probability
of this VA indicated by The Herald
in an earlier issue. Unless the unex-
pected happens. Ftazier's lead will be
increased as the returns from the re-
manning scattering precincts come in,
and he will be found to have a small.
but sufficient majority.
In the meantime, whatever the OUT
come, the forces of Socialism have
sustained a disastrous, and. we are
confident, an irretrievable defeat. 1t
will be unfortunate II Frazier is found
to have been nominated by any ma
josity, however small, but IL, this
proves to be the a it will not re-
lieve him and the men with whom he,
has chosen to associate. and whose
bidding he has chosen to do from the
odium of defeat. The cause repre-
scented by Mr.. Townley, and of which
the present governor Of the state is
the visible, figurehead, has demon
strated in election after election that
closer acquaintance with 1t has caused
it to lose % and more of public
confidence, until after the enormous
majorities of which 1t boasted but q
short time ago. it hasEeached the van
fishing point, and is Compelled to
struggle forever q few score OF votes
with which to retain. its hold on the
chief executive position of the state.
This of itself is humiliating. And
when we see coupled with 1T the
strong probability OF the removal of
the smirch of Socialism from the en-
tire congressional delegation. the re-
establishment of the state legislature
on a basis Of independent democracy,
the reputation by the people of the
mfschievous measures forced through
the legislature in a spirit of partisan
malice, and the enactment by the votes
OF the people themselves of the law
requiring the observance of common
decency in the display Of flags and
en- lems-when we look over this
prospect. much or all Of which seems
quite likely to be realized, it Will be
seen that with or without the renomin-
alton OF its superservtceable governor,
Townleyism has been given short
shrift by the voters Of North Dakota.

THE DEMOCRATIC STRUGGLE.

n platform prepared by the COM
mittee on resolutions has been pre-
scented to the Democratic convention.
and the struggle over proposals for its
amendment has begun. TIL Wilson
forces have had the situation well in
hand thus far. Now comes the fipht.
Mr.. Bryan is the chief, agitator IN
the proceedings. He is determined
that the convention shall express itself
IN certain ways on certain propositions
or that it shall express definitely on
record as refusing to do 30. The ad-
optiof OF the Bryan planks would lead
to asreat deal of dissatisfaction in the
party: Their explicit rejection would
put the party in an attitude which Il
does not desire to assume. Hence It
- apparent that Bryan, is able to make
things exceedingly difficult, evens1f he
fails to get his resolutions adopted.
i has been considered quite pro-
that in Ease Of the rejection n
the Byran planks their author would
head q new crusade, going to the
country with = platform 81 which pro-
hibitfon would IS i OF the main

Andrea more than urn her head
when shortly after noon two, bearers
staggered into camp with a steamer
trunk slung on a pole between them.
There was no reason in the world WHY
she. should connect that trunk in any
way with herself ever when, an hour
after its arrival, she beheld approach

specimen of black manhood she had
