Losses and Gains.

Losses and Gains.
The first reported received from
Golden Valley county in the extreme
western part of the state said that
Frazier lost about IL per cent over
last year in the rural precincts that
had been reported. He was, however,
running about even with last year in
Stark county.
Throughout the Slope. Frazier held
his own or gained over last year. He
showed a decided gain in Morton
county, in Grant county he gained 70
In the first nine precincts, and gained
In some precincts reported in HeE
finger and Adams counties. He also
showed a gain in Mcintosh and En-
mons, Divide Sheridan and Burleigh
counties. He was expected to have a
1000 majority in Mclean county, and
about the same as last year in Kid
der.
Nestos got 1868 lead in 68 pre-.
cincts in Cass county, including the
city of Fargo. He gained 263 in
Steele county, 800 in Benson county.
gained in LaMoure, 413 in Ramsey,
with AZ out of 56 precincts reported,
slightly in Rolette
The Independents made gain in
Stutsman county over last year, and
had gained in 21 precincts reported In
Mountrail county.
Loses on Slope
Losses to the l. v. A. in Burleigh
and Morton counties were among the
surprises of the election. City Of Man
dan complete gave Nelson 1920 and
Frazier 635 or loss to the Independ-
ents of PAL.
In Stark county Nestos secured
1146 against Frazier's 400 in eight out
of 36 precincts. Dickinson vote was
899 to 473 compared to 978 for O'Con-
nor and 532 for Frazier.
! Gains In Morton
1t is estimated that Morton county
will 90 300 stronger for the league
than last fall.
! The l. V. A. showed gains in the
Red River Valley early in the evening,
but toward morning the rural returns
began to reduce them somewhat.
Cuts Down Grand Forks
Take Grand Forks for instance. It
started out with more than 5000 lead
for Nestos. With 10 rural precincts
to be heard from at 2:30 a. m. this
morning the lead in Grand Forks
county had been cut to 2,601 with 10
precincts of Frazier's country to be
heard from.
Haste in gathering the figures shows
many apparent discrepancies which
only a checking up against official
returns can determine.
Nestos's adherents were jubilant
shortly after midnight.
Increases in Valley
The l. V. A. increases in the Red
River Valley and the League gains
on the Slope were the surprises of the
election that upset the calculations of
those who were able, in pastelections
to predict with reasonable sureness.
The great slump in the vote also COM
plicated the situation.

election. the entire tscene charged. Labor is out of employment, agricul- ture is unable to obtain for the pro- duct of the soil the cost of produc- tion; distress and bankruptcy stare the country in the face. During the democratic administration the Amer ican, tramp, who was found in every community during the days of repub- lican control entirely disappeared, because opportunity knocked at the door of every man. and no man was denied the chance to earn his daily bread. This is all changed with the republican party back into power. \ T do not believe that the voter of the country will continue to indorse an administration that has promised much and accomplished nothing for the relief of the distressing conditions of our country. aRd I therefore be- lieve that you will receive in the com ing election an overwhelming major ity, worthy of yourself and the great party you represent.
