A NON-LEGAL OPINION
Sanger, N. D.,
Dec. 6th. 1924.

Editor, Tribune:
I see that 1t will b necessary for
. dirt farmer to put the wise law
yers right on this Noodle election
contest matter. OF course they Get
Tee Tor their opinions and must
color them to suit their clients, while
there are no strings to my thinking
and have no reasons for trying to
betog the facts.
The constitution says that no per-
son Is eligible to be governor OF this
state unless he has been q resident
within the state for the five years
next preceding the election at which he
Is to b elected. # Noodle voted in
another state in the elections Of 1880,
as 1t Is said he did, 1t Is a. plain
as the nose on your face he can not
qualify for the office Of governor.
It IS childish piffle for lawyers to
talk about the supremacy Of the
voice Of the people over the provi-
sions Of the constitution. Had the
facts been made known to the voters
and they knew the disabilities Of the
Democratic candidate. he never would
have been elected.
As an ardent supporter Of Noodle,
I have the intelligence to see that he
can never qualify for the office un-
der the constitution and the consti-
tuition must be upheld. Ole Olson,
as acting governor, holds office un-
til his successor is both duly elected
and qualified. When his term Of
office expires and there Is no elected
and qualified successor to take his
place, he thus continues to be the
chief executive for the next two
years.
The lieutenant governor assumes
the office Of governor only when by
some means vacancy occurs, but In
this case there Is no vacancy, and
since Wexford was elected lieutenant
governor he must qualify as lieutenant
governor and hold that Office for
the next two years or until . va
cancy does occur.
II BY some quirk Of precedent Or
technicality the federal court Of ap-
peals reverses the findings Of the
federal district court and removes the
disability Of william LANCER, then
Ole Olson can pack up his old ht
bag" and 60 back to the farm and
Bill LANCER viii still be governor Of
our benighted state.
These simple facts As seen by one
Of the common voters Of the state
should penetrate the cranial bones Of
the legal lights and help them to
make quick decision In keeping
with sanity and the constitution.
Thank you,
SHERMAN HICKLE.

While every available vehicle was
pressed into service transporting the
injured to hospitals, two dead lay
on the floor Of q restaurant across
the street from the hotel. They were
beyond all help.
The night clerk Of the hotel said
he had not completed his report
when the fire broke out and, since
1t was believed that the records, in
Guiding the hotel register, were de-
stroyed, 1t seemed likely that the full
extent Of the tragedy would have to
await search OF the ruins.
Workmen were to be rushed into
the debris as soon as it cooled.
