Democrats Gaining Seats
in House; New York is
Strongly Democratic

New York, Nov. 8-The gathering
of returns today revealed that the
democrats have gained at least 80
seats in the house. 1t will be nee
essary for them to win FL more to
control that body. Republican con-
troll of the senate has been reduced
from "a to less than Is. Contests
in doubt make it impossible to fix

Ohio, President Harding's home
state, on which the administration

(By United Press)

Fargo, Nov. Sin 436 precincts
out of the states 2,115, Lynn j.
Frazier, nonpartisan endorsee, had
26,5O4 votes and j. F. I. O'Connor,
democrat, endorsed by the Indepen-
dent voters Association, 3S,124. in
the contest for Porter j. McCum-
cr's scat in the United States SEN
ate.
In the gubernatorial contest, 410
precincts gave VIM. Lemke, non
partisan, 1900, and Governor Mes
tos, republican candidate for re-elec-
ton, 1926. While nonpartisans
claim election of Lynn j. Frazier
and Independents claim the rc-elec-
ton of Governor Nestos, neither side
will admit defeat of their candidates.
The returns are coming in slowly to-
day due to a storm in the western
part of the state yesterday.
The success Of Frazier's contest
probably will depend upon returns
from this section of the state. If
they are in any way approaching
normal, Frazier has probably been
elected to the senate. Fears are ex-
pressed that only small part of
the vote was able to get to the poll
ing places yesterday.

SHlPSTEAD IS LEADER g
IN HIGH SCHOOL VOTE

In a straw vote taken at the high
school Tuesday in an effort to in
struct the pupils in the methods of
voting, Henrik Shipstead, Nonparti-
san candidate for the U. S. senate
from Minnesota, proved the most
popular choice of the students.
The vote stood as follows: Ship
stead 1893; Kellogg 159; and Olesen
1O8.
Prior to the voting, each assembly
of students was addressed by the
various candidates represented by
the students. Sample ballots bear
ing the entire state ticket were used.
The purpose of the vote was not
ito determine the outcome but to in
struct the pupils in the method Of
voting, giving due stress upon the
proper marking of the ballots.

(Bv United Press)


St.. Paul, Nov. 8-Increasing his
lead with each additional precinct
carried, DR.. Henry Shipstead, Non
partisan, early today appeared to be
leading Frank B. Kellogg, "strong
man" in Minnesota.
The tide against Kellogg was the
most surprising turnover in the
country. Anna Dickey Olesen, first
woman nominee for, congress, ran a
poor third. The vote in AGA pre-
cincts gave Shipstead 5S,133; Kel-
logg 41,527; Olesen 19,8O5.
Rev. O.. ]. Kvale in the seventh
held a lead of more than 100000
over Representative Andrew H. VOL
stead, and indications were that the
veteran congressman, father of the
prohibition enforcement act, would
be washed overheard in the wet wave
that splashed over the country.
W. L. Cross, democrat, may re-
place OscaH~J. Larson, republican
congressman from the eighth district
although Larson held slight lead
early today. Knude Wefald was
showing unlocked for strength against
Halvor Steenerson, republican, in

was expected to win. Harold Knut-

Governor and Congressional
Fights Throughout Nation
Show Strong Reversal
(By Lawrence Martin)
(By United PrsSS)

New York, Nov. ,S-Swinging back
with a tremendous reversal of the
trend Of 1920, the political pendu-
lum has carried the democratic party
into commanding position in the
state and national affairs as the
results of Tuesdays election showed.
Men who stood close personally
and politically. to President Harding
and his administration, and who as
members of Congress, actively help
ed to make effective the Harding
policy, were swept from their po-
litical pedcstals and the democrats
took their places while the incom
pletc chara-,.er Of figures early to-
day made it impossible to state exact
ly how the new house and senate
will stand. 1t is apparent that the
republican control of the house will
be retained by slight margin, if it
holds, and may be lost entirely. The
republicans now have a house maj
ority of l6S.
The democrats have reduced re-
puDllCdH COHIOl VI Inc ScIldCC 1IOu
"a to 16 or II.
The victory exceeded the optomis-
tic forecast of the democratic party.
They were frankly amazed at the
extent of the revolt as the returns
came in. Not only were democratic
candidates for the house and senate
but many new democrat
governors were chosen together with
democratic state tickets.
The possibility still existed today
that in some places where the con-
congressional and gubernatorial con-
test took place, the democratic gains
might be turned down somewhat

nection with the Herrin strip mine
massacre last June, were scheduled
to 60 on trial here today.
On the outcome of the trial will
hang the fate Of seventy seven men,
who were indicted by the grand jury
which investigated the killings.
Careful preparations were made t.
guard the court against any demon
stration by friends Of the accused
as feeling is running high in this
mining community against the pro.
secutors.
The prosecution is in charge of At.
torney Delos Duty, assisted by At
torncy General Brundage and a corp:
of assistants from the attorney gen
erals office in Springfield. Attor
neys hired by the United Mine Work
crs of America will have charge OF

the strike of bituminous coal miner:
in violation of an agreement which
had been entered into between tn
mine operators and union official:
that no attempt would be made te
work while the walk-out was in pro

armed with machine guns.
The trouble started on June q
when the union miners held mass

EXPLAINS WHY ALIENS
SHOULD Be REGISTERED
Noted Criminal Chaser Favors
immigration Restrictions
of Labor Department

Washington, Nov. 8 (Capitol News
rvicc)-Shortly after uncovering
the nucleus to worldwide plot for
revolution, with headquarters in
this country, and many "red' work
ers engaged therein, William .J.
Burns, chief of the national Bureau
of investigation said:
"Thcrc is no objection, of course,
ito people coming to our shores from
foreign lands if they follow the peace
full pursuits, but we need more strin-
gent laws to deal with radical agi-
tators. Under the provisions Of
the bill fostcrcd by Mr.. Davis, reg
r;tration would drive undesirables
out of our country. An examination
fair and Thorough, would deal a
severe blow to radical agitators who
try to SOW the seeds of dissension.
Although the facilities at our COM
mand are Being applied effectively
at the present time, the plan en-
bodied in the proposed law would
greatly facilitate our work" 49,
Many officials in the government
who have hitherto looked with doubt
upon the plan to make Americas
welcome to the foreigner less cor
dial, are coming to agree with the
Department of Labor that there is
nothing in the proposed registration
Of aliens which is either hardship
upon the registers, or a great tax
upon the government. 1t is pointed
out that nationwide registration
Of the young men Of the country
was accomplished in one day for the
purposes OF raising a draft army
The men who registered, it is noted,
did not protest or regard it as other
than a patriotic duty.
The law compelling registration Of
all aliens, and supervision over their
activities will not only, if passed,
serve to keep "red" agitators out of
the country, but will enable the gov
ernmcnt to keep absolute check up
on those who remain here without
being interested enough to become
cit 'zons. and those who make a
whole hearted effort to become real
Americans. !

MOOSE LODGE ENJOYS
INTERESTING SESSION
Exceptionally Large Crowd
i Attends Exceptionally
Interesting Meeting

Tuesday nights meeting Of the
Moose lodge brought out an unusual
ly large attendance and all who were
present were kept unusually well in
terested. Good progress was report
ed on subscriptions for the radio re-
ceiving set since the last melting but
goodly sum must yet be secured.
The committe in charge now consists
of Aldrich, Annis, Bucklen, Parker
and Caskey.
The House committee reported
through R. E. Miller that the club
and buffet was coming on so so we'll
that they had turned over some money
to the general funds of the lodge at
the end of the first months opera
tons.
A directory of Moose hall, show
ing the meeting nights Of the lodges
using the hall, was autorized to be
placed at the outside entrance.
Dictator H. z. Mitchell called the
lodges attention to the accidental
death of a former member, which
makes the third similar case in about
six months, of men and families who
would have been eligible to large
benefits had their dues been kept
paid up. The name of c.. w. Mel
son was drawn for the attendance
prize. -
An interesting talk. giving his inn
pressions after a recent days visit
to Mooseheaft, the children's home
of the L. o. o. M, was made by
E. w. Hannah; the lodges prelate.
An impassioned plea for complete
observance of Armistice Day by the
entire closing of stores in Bemidji
was made by Clarence Foucault.
The surprise sprung relative to the
"eats" consisted of oysters. An
orchestra under E. E. Benson play
ed an informal program after the
formal close of the lodge meeting
