Again the people of North Dakota
have demonstrated their unflinch-
ing faith in the program Of the
League. Again they have success
fully flayed the forces of poor Am
ericanism. The hand of deceit and
selfish motives has worked over
time in trying to shatter the forces
of progress in that state; but the
League has won another sweeping
victory in the North Dakota primar~
les, which took place Wednesday.
Late returns have put Frazier and
Ladd both way ahead. Those re-
turns are mostly from the cities and
towns, and judging from the way
the country precincts so far are 60
ing, the League candidates will
strengthen more as more complete
returns come in.
A recent communication from
Fargo says that the whole League
ticket is entirely safe, that the l. v.
AS have given up hopes.
LANCER, running OH the I. v. A.
ticket, was first reported to be lead
ing Governor Lynn j. Frazier; but
his hackers have cut their conten-
tions down until absolute defeat
was admitted by them.
The election in the counties are
reported to be going for Frazier and
Ladd throughout, and alls other
League candidates are reported a.
carrying easily.
The League is anticipating a
sweeping victory.

STRAND TAKES STRAW
VOTE NEXT WEEK

That the women of Warren will make
a bigger showing than the men when
a presidential straw vote is launched
under the supervision of Associated
First National Pictures by the Strand
during the week of September 10 SIM
ultaneously with 5000 other cinema
houses in the United States. was the
prediction made today by Mr.. Ander-
son, manager Of the Strand.
Weight is given to this prediction by
the new interest which women have
taken in politics, now that they have
the right Of active participation acquir-
ed through the adoption Of the federal
suffrage amendment, and it is all the
more plausible because Of the fact that
feminine motion picture fans generally
0utnumber the male patrons of the
silent drama.
The straw vote is expected to reach
more than 5000, 900 voters in the coun-
try, and every effort is being made to
the end that the national total may
be known early in October, a month
ahead Of the presidential election.
