Age-Old Emotions

A little boys grave was opened
near Chillicothe. Ohio, the other day.
He is supposed to have been
placed in it no less than 1000 years
ago.
Marbles were found beside him,
which makes it easy to construct the
scene.
Despite all the changes and inno-
vations, we feel just the same when
a little boy dies as the mound
builders did.
If a grief-stricken mother does not
put his playthings in the grave, she
cherishes them, and if a silent father
prays to a different god, he asks
the same old question.

NYE STILL P|L|NG
Up LEAD IN RACE
Returns From More Than
Half of State Show Nom
Partisan Victory.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
FARGO, y. D., July Senator
Gerald +. Nye, Partisan incum-
bent, continued to pile up n substan-
tial lead over l.. b. Hanna, independ-
ent. for the Republican senatorial
nomination early today as returns
from Nye's rural strongholds were
tabulated
Returns from 1921 out of 2,167 pre-
cincts gave Nye 52.632 and Hanna
1925 in the regular term race. In
the short term contest, to fill the va
cancy caused by the death of Senator
Ladd, Nye also led. The vote was
Nye, 32.764; Hanna, 29.313.
Nye's campaign distinctly opposed
the national administration, with at
tacks made particularly. on the fail,
ure to pass the Haugen agricultural
relief measure. The World Court
and the Mellon bill were other sub
jectS for attack.
Upheld the Administration.
Hanna. on the other hand, upheld
the administration, winning the APP
relation Coolidge candidate" within
the State. He was campaign manager
for Coolidge in the 1924 presidential
election. Hanna represented the in
dependent wing of the Republican
party in the State-a faction opposed
to the Non-Partisan League forces,
which have been incorporated in the
Non-Partisan group of the party.
This Non-Partisan movement also
renominated Gov. A. G.. Sorlie in the
gubernatorial contest. Sorlie had
59,099 votes. while J. NJ. Hanley, in
dependent had 1885.
Nye and Sorlie trailed in first re
suits. which were chiefly from munich
palities. Because their strong rural
support was accepted, concession of
defeat by Hanna and friends of Han
ley were made even before the Non
Partisans ha dtaken the lead, due to
the absence of striking Independent
ma jorities in the population centers
Two Independents Ahead.
Two independent and one Non-Parti
san incumbents have steamed ahead
with substantial ma jorities insuring
denomination in the congressional
races.
Q. r. Burtness, independent was
far ahead in the first district, while
in the second Thomas Hall, indie
pendent, was maintaining a lead.
James Sinclair. the only Non-Parti
san incumbent, led in the third dis
triCt.
A curious factor in the State con
tests is that despite leads for Non
Partisans heading the ticket, the in
dependents apparently have obtained
enough members to insure a slight
ajority at the next session.
That the last-minute campaign
waged by a committee of "old-time
Non-Partisans' in behalf of a. {
Townley, once boss" of the Non
Partisan League, failed was ade
quately proven in returns today. He
was announced as "sticker" candi
date for governor on the Republican
ticket, but received an occasional vote.
