SHORT OF 1928
Romberg and Keefe to Meet
in Fall Election for State
SenatOrship
CHASE is NOMINATED
McRae-BOllum For Register;
Barnes and Werring in COun-
ty Attorney Race

With surprisingly close races in
both the state and county offices, the
voters of Minnesota made their
choices last Monday at the polls in
the primary election. The total Red
wood county vote will be approximate
5000 or nearly 1000 under the vote
of the presidential election in Nov
ember, 1928.
Ray P. Chase, republican candidate
for governor, in his race against j.
A. A. Burnquist and N. j. Holmberg
and several lesser candidates piled
up a lead of over 100000 according
to reports this morning. Senator
Thos. D. Schall was given like lead
over Theodore Christensen for Unit
ed State Senator.
The race between Stafford King
and Henry Rines has taken on a
serious aspect, each candidate claim
ing victory. The early morning re-
port gave King a lead of 88 over his
rival. Approximately 1000 precincts
are left to report. Reuben G. Thor
cen and John H. Hougen were neck
and neck in the Lieutenant Governor
race.
Grace Kaercher Davis swept the
field for Clerk of Supreme Court, as
did Henry N. Benson for attorney
general and Frank Matson for Rail-
road and Warehouse commissioner.
The county races proved as closely
fought as those of the state. In
the contest for county attorney,
Julian E. Morten of Lamberton, al
though eliminated, showed the big
gest surprise of the election. Mr..
Morten carried nearly 1000 votes,
while George A. Barnes and w. R.
Werring were fighting for the lead.
The count of 40 out of As precincts
gave Barnes lead of approximately
go, the count being 1876 to 1917 for
Werring, which from the outlook,
assures a hard fought contest in the
fall election.
The race for Register of Deeds
will center around A. D. McRae, in
cumbent and E. H. Bollum, who sur
prised the old heads with a heavy
vote against the veteran McRae.
VIM. Ball was eliminated in this race.
The count showed McRae with 2,612,
Bollum 1925 and Ball 535, in the 40
precincts from which unofficial re-
ports were obtained.
F. H. Aldrich, present representa-
tive of Redwood county from Bel
view, completely showed under his
rivals in the race for this office. Joe
Beran, Clements, who made gallant
fight in some parts of the county two
years ago against Aldrich, was elm
mated by L. j. Goldberg of Redwood
Falls, although Aldrich carried many
more votes than both contestants.
The unofficial count gave Aldrich
2,501 to 1,242 for Goldberg and $50
for Beran.
The race for state senator of the
14th district, which includes Redwood
and Brown counties saw Frank F.
Romberg of Sleepy Eye and Jos. R.
Keefe of Redwood Falls pull through
for the fall election. E. T. Ebbesen
and F. A. Reunitz were eliminated
from the race. In Redwood county
