I Meet Here, T PROV to Go
:. :. Over Primary RetYFns

\ WIFI returns from thfea Beltra-
mi county precincts still missing and
few returns from 2Koochiching
county still not reported here. there
is every indication that Harry
Bridgeman of the Fifth ward has
won the high nomination as can
didate for the state senate from
the Beltrami-K oochiching district.
lead in Beltrami county
over McPartlin increased as the re-
naming precincts came in since yes
terday and he also held his proper
ton of votes in Koochiching county.
Returns received yesterday after
noon and this morning cut down
Ritchie's lead over Bridrleman IN
the county slightly and on these
returns were based largely Ritchle's
chances for nosing out McPartlin.
As result Bridgeman and Mozart
lin will fight it out at the fall cleo
ton. In other words it will be Bel
trami county against Koochiching
county for the state senate seat.

stand practically the same as 1t Is
at the present time.

it's work by Saturday noon, pro-
vided the remaining precincts have
been reported by that time. The

Report Presents a Plan for
Control of Outflow in /
Interest of Drainage
HIGH WATER LEVEL SET
AT 1174; PLAN BIG DAM
Approximately 100000 Acres
Of Agricultural Lands Are
= to Receive Benefits

The Department. OF Drainage ana
Waters has just made public re-
port on its, investigation into the
subject of the control Of floods on
the Red Lakes and the Red Lake
River authorized by the Legislature
Of 1872 The report presents a plan,
for the control Of the outflow Of
the water from the Red Lakes in
the interests of the drainage of. lands:
and control Of floods, also so as to.
conserve water for the benefit of
water powers located on the river
below the lakes and an improved
water supply to MUNICIPALITIES.
A complete set Of plans for the
required structure and an estimat-
ed cost of all construction items
are furnished. .s,.. .s.-. -. .,
:, The proposed project contem-
plates the establishment Of the or
binary high water level of the Red
Lakes at 1174, which means the
lowering of all lake stages which
have prevailed in state OF nature
by an amount equal to approx
mately l 1-2 feet. Whenever the
lahe rises above this level, water
is to be wasted through a dam and
control works to sbe constructed at
the outlet as fast as the capacity
of the improved channel of the Red
Lake river below will permit. When
ever the lake is less than LIZA it is
proposed to conserve the water in
the interests of power development
and an improved water 4 supply.
Whenever the conditions affecting
the inflow into the lake will indi-
cate that the storage above elevation
1172 will be exhausted, the rate at
which water shall be discharged
for beneficial use by TIE powers
shall be reduced to such an extent
as to prevent the lake from being
lowered to1z1172 before the follow
ing spring. And when the lake has
reached 1172 the outflow from it
shall he limited, to minimum re-
CURED by municipalities for water
supply and sewage disposal but
shall not be less than the natural
flow ..s.s. ..s~. ,,..ss. ... 49,.
The proposed control dam in the
Red Lake River is to he built .34OO
feet below the outlet of the lake,
a plan of which is submitted as a
part of the report. Provision is made
for single track railroad and a
20. foot highway crossing over and
as part of the controlling works.
Channels for anchoring craft and
log RATS are included, also channels

ter in Herrin that the body was
moved to a morgue in q neighboring
city in secrecy because Of fear that
strike sympathizers might make an
effort to obtain his body and precipl-
tate a new outbreak. a.
, No member of the attackers was
found who would tell the story OF
the events of the massacre The
word was passed along that the
strike-breakers and guards were kill
ed when, in marching to Herrin, they
made an attempt to escape. This
was denied.
Col. Hunter said that as far as he
knew no investigation into the kill
ings was under: way and no arrests
had been made. Col. Hunter pointed
out military authorities could dc
nothing to punish those guilty un'
less the district was under MARTA

NORTH DAKOTA MAS0NS
HIT XII KLUX KLANlSM
(By United Press)

Fargo, N. D., June 23.-Ku Klux
Klanism received a striking blow in
North Dakota when the grand lodge
A. F. and A. M. went on record
against the organization in drastic
resolution yesterday.
Announcing the methods OF the
khan, the grand lodge forbade mem
bers to- secure or retain, if they had
already obtained, membership in the
mystic order.
This is believed to be the first
grand lodge to 60 on record in this
matter. Because of the strength Oh
the Masons and the. fact that they
will have the support of the Knights
of Columbus, it is thought the plan
can secure new foothold in the
state.

WILD HONEY" FILMED

The thread of romance that
carries the interest through the
plot of wild Honey" at the Ore
gon theatre, Tuesday and Wednes-
day, Is based ON the independence
OF spirit of Lady Vivienne, the
English lady Of rank who is the
heroine OF Cynthia Stockley's nov
ell, from which the picture was
filmed. Priscilla Dean portraye
the character
How many women would brave
the dangers OF a trip through the
barren spaces OF the Transvaal,
alone and unacquainted with the
nature of the country and Its peo-
pie? Lady "Yiv" does 1t for the
sake OF looking up the land which
represents the only wealth she
possesses and which every one
says isn't worth the paper on
which the deed Is printed.
An independent spirit in a wo-
man is one thing men always ad-
mire- until they get better ac-
quafnted with It. But it can lead
to happiness, for the woman who
has an indomitabie spirit is some
times the more easily dominated
by the fright man"
1.-THE right man" in wild
Honey" is impersonated by Rob
ert Ellis. Noah and Wallace Beery
enact the chief roles of villain
ish" hue. Other players are Lloyd
Whitlock, Raymond Blathwayt,
Helen Raymond, Harry DeRoy,
Carl Stnckdale, G. j. Frank and
Landers Stevens.
