DEMOCRATS GO
STRONG DURING
STATE VOTING

Democrats of Montana dupli-
Gated the great landslide of 1882,
early election returns from $50 of
the states 1887 precincts indicat-
ed early today. Burton X. Wheel
er, by an overwhelming majority
was returned to Montana's senior
post in the U. S. Senate, and his
running mate, James E. Murray,
was a safe bet for the two-year
senatorial position.
The returns from the above
number of precincts gave: Wheel
er, 74,522; Bourquin, 31,646; Muir
ray, 63,510; Leavitt, $4,000.
Roy E. Ayers, Democrat, like
wise appeared certain for return
to the U. S. congress from this dis
trict. In $50 precincts the con-
gresham stood 35,144 votes a.
gainst the 14,400 polled for his Re-
publican opponent, Judge Stanley
IL. Felt Of Baker.
In the states supreme court
races, however, the outcome ap-
peared less certain although the
Democratic candidates were main
tanning leads. For chief justice,
the reports gave: Galloway, Az
594; Sands, 1928. For associate
justice the returns indicated 38,945
votes for Angstman, 47,122 for
Morris.
Jerry j. O'Connell of Butte
seemed certain to capture the
state railroad and public service
commissionership over Charles
Rasmussen, Republican, of Helena.
O'Connell had 1882 votes polled
for him as against 1922 for Ras-
musson.

mill, which will handle $50 bushels
of grain daily, was completed dur
ing the week. The mill is located
in the basement of the building
and is powered with a steam-driv-
en- engine. A screw conveyor
system which dumps the grain in
to the 80-foot grain storage bins
at the fourth floor of the building.
The huge copper still located on
the main floor of the building
rises 80 feet in height through
three floors. The still has been
assembled, as have a charger and
two c%ondensers, located on the sec
ond floor. Connections remain to
be made on the various working
units of the still before it will be
ready for producing some 1900
gallons of distilled spirits daily.
A full head of steam is being
maintained in the plants two 100
horsepower steam boilers and feed
and heating lines have already
been installed as we'll as various
drive shafts and pulleys for trans
ferring power throughout the
plant. The ID 10O-gallon fer
menter watts, located in the base
ment, and the smaller watts in what
is known as the plants "slop
room" on the main floor; have
been filled with water to cause
swelling before production begins.
Superintendent Barnett also re-
ports that crews are now con-
~structing a vat that will be used
for aging the plants product
through a steam bath process. This
vat is being located in the govern
ment warehouse section which oc-
cupies the front portion of the
basement. The vat is being con-
structed of concrete and the theory
of this unit is to place the filled
whiskey barrels into the shallow
water of the vat and then turn
steam into the water to heat and
agitate the whiskey to hasten the
aging process.
MI. Barnett also said that cop
per receiving tubs were being as
sembled in the whiskey receiving
room located on the main floor of
the building. The receiving room
is used for putting the plants pro-
ducts into barrels. The plants
yeast-making room is also about
completed, the superintendent re-
ported, with three copper watts in
place and machinery installed
awaiting the first pulse of power
from the drive belts.

Missouri Valley Area Council
Has Made Great Growth
In Six Years

Although the BOY scout movement
was started In Bismarck 20 years ago,
actual development Of the organiza-
ton on q systematic scale did not b.
gin until early In 1928.
In that year the Missouri Valley
Area council was organized under the
direction Of w. q. Fulton, who had
come here the previous year as Z
member Of the Bismarck public school
faculty and juvenile recreation dtrec-
tor.
The area includes 20 counties IN
North Dakota Sheridan, K!dder. Lo-
gan, Mcintosh, Emmons, Burleigh
Mclean, Oliver, Morton, Sioux. Grant
Mercer, Dunn, Stark, Hettinger, Bill
ings, Adams, Bowman, Slope and
Golden Valley-and two counties IN
South Dakota-perkins and Corson.
Among those who started the or
ganization here In 1914 and 1915 were
Judge I. G. Davies, Rev. Bruce Jack
son, John N. FORSTER, .. B. Cook
James Halloran, w. H. steiber, H. s
Lobach, Supreme Court Justice A. M
Christianson and others.
without q full-tin1e executive, how
ever, development was slow and the
organization did not come into its full
flower until 1923, when the area wal
organized. Fulton remained here un-
til August, 1888, when no was re-
placed by Paul o. Netland. the pres
ent executive.
35S Men Are Active
A total Of $50 men now Is active II

CAPITOL DESIGNED
TO FIT ALL NEEDS
Requirements OF Structure Were
First Facts Determined
by Architects

The architectural organization Of
North Dakota,s new state capitol
building gave first consideration to
determining requirements Of the new
structure.
Plans Of the earlier building were
resurrected and examined, existing
quarters were surveyed and analy1ed
and each officer snd al heads Of
boards and departments were inter-
viewed and called upon for sugges-
lions and information.
A questionable was prepared and
submitted to the heads Of the sew.
eral departments and all Of the in
formation acquired was brought to-
gether, tabulated and analysed.
Under the earlier conception Of
state government It Is probable the
building would not have been called
upon to accommodate more than per.
haps 50 to IS officers and employees
but to accommodate the increasing
personnel now engaged In the carry
ing on Of the state functions, and with
reasonably anticipated expansion ant
enlargement, q much larger building
was found to be necessary.
Il was found q building largl
enough to accommodate an estimated
population Of $50 would be necessary
with probability Of further expansion
In the future.
Also to be accommodated was q leg.
islative department Of 162 members
exclusive Of employees, the judicia
department with q personnel approx
mating 20 and for which EXTENSIVE
library facilities were needed, and thu
executive a. well as administrative
departments.
To reasonably satisfy tho require
ments, It was found the building
must provide floor space Of approx
mately 10000 square feet. with cubic
contents Of. approximately 4.000.00'
cubic feet, with . Life not less thai

financed from chapter funds. Es-
pecially Is this true In the matter
Of crippled and defective children.
until the program was taken over by
the Elks.
Disaster relief Is another major &C.
tivity Of the chapter and . vital part
Of Its program. The chapter has as
sisted financially aInd otherwise In
every major disaster In which the Ma
tional Red Cross has functioned As
directing agency In the last 10 years.
Junior Red Cross, which was organ
lied during the war and Is under the
direction Of the national organiza-
ton, has continued to function
through the schools Of the county
and Is recognized an important fac
tor in promotiong goodfellowship
among the children Of the nations.
Every Christmas throughout the land
hundreds Of Christmas boxes are
packed by the Juniors and sent to
foreign countries, where they are dis
tributed among the school children
Of every nation. Burleigh county
school children share In this project
and are rewarded by the letters Of
acknowledgment and appreciation,
and the portfolios that come In re-
turn.
First aid and lfe-saving programs
have been developed and promoted
by the chapter year after year. Life
Saving classes under the direction Of
Arnold Van Wyk, chairman Of Red
Cross Life-saving for the chapter,
are held each summer at the SWIM
ming pool and the number Of those
who hold certificates in life-saving is
considered unusually large for the
size Of the city.
First aid classes are held annually
for Girl and Boy Scout leaders, and
this year for the CWA workers, &C.
cording to plans made by the Ma
tional organization. DR.. w. 3. Pierce
and DR.. r. w. Hallenberg are direct
ing the classes.
Answer Latest Emergency
In addition to the regular Red
Cross program, as outlined by the
National organization, each chapter
has had to assume responsibility for
the distribution Of government feed,
flour and clothing in. each county.
Burleigh County Chapter, with the
aid Of q countrywide set-up, In the
last two years distributed several
hundred tons Of feed and flour and
also tons Of government cloth and
ready-made garments to farmers and
others who suffered crop failures and
other losses. This was done with lit
tie cost to the chapter because Of the
splendid cooperation accorded by the
county workers.
Mrs. Fred L. Conhlin Is the present
chairman Of the organization. Other
officers include Supreme Court JUS
tice w. L. Nuessle, vice chairman; A.
r. Tavis, secretary-treasurer: Mary
Cashel, executive secretary: Mrs. H.
G. Edgerton Of Wing, Judge Fred
Jansonius, A. w. Mundy. DR.. N. O.
Ramstad, DR.. G. r. Stackhouse Of
Bismarck and H. E. Wildfang Of ster-
ling, all directors.
The chapter maintains its offices
IN the courthouse here and maintains
full-time service with . paid execu-
tive. Previous to 1927, when the COM
munity chest was organized. there
was an annual roll call for member
ship. but for the last seven years the
roll call Is conducted in the county
outside the city OF Bismarck only.
