Over lsaminger, With
Outcome in Doubt

Franklin D. Roosevelt got two votes
to every one for Herbert Hoover IN
Burleigh county at Tuesdays election.
The count, with 81 precincts reported,
was Roosevelt, 4,9O8; Hoover, 2,455.
Gerald P. Nye had 4,754 to 2,446 for
P. w. Lanier for senator, and Will
liam LANCER had 4,o33 to 3,489 for H.
G. DePuy in the governorship con-
test.
In the congressional race, the count
was: Sinclair, 3,774; Lemke, 3,5o5;
Murphy, 2,678; Lynch, 2,430.
In strictly Burleigh county con-
tests the biggest upset probably was
the defeat of Gordon Cox for place
in the lower house by j. M. Thomp-
son, Democrat, and an I. v. A. COL
league until Thompson was refused
re endorsement by the l. v. A. county
convention last winter. Reports from
AZ precincts gave Cox 3,074; Thomp-
son, 1892. The missing precincts
were in the county.
Marie Huber was returned as coun-
ty superintendent of schools in race
with Madge Runey, and j. L. Kelly
was reelected sheriff in race with
Frank Larson.
With AZ precincts reported, Claire
Derby had a lead of 1876 over A.. c.
Isaminger but the result was in doubt
as Derby polled most of the strength
in the city and the missing precincts
were in the country.
Ernest Elness defeated A. ]. Arno'
for county treasurer and Charles
Fisher was returned as clerk of the
district court, defeating Mrs. Bertha
Schafer. Fred Swenson retained the
register of deeds office in contest
with Ludwig Quanrud: George Reg
lister walloped F.. E. McCurdy for the
states attorneyship and I. c. Davies
defeated Wesley Cochran for county
! judge
M. H. Chernich defeated T. r. At
kinson for county surveyor on the

cincts reported, 879 to 755. Three city

official figures indicated Moynier hac
| won.
