Complete County Vote and
Results From Sank Gen.
tire and Townships

For the first time in several years
Republicans of Minnesota cast
more ballots in the Primary cleo
parties. Farmer-Labor strongholds
in the state in many instances
have given Martin Nelson, Repub-
lican candidate, a greater vote than
that received by the Farmer-Labor
candidate, Elmer Benson. Reports
from Douglas County and Ottertail
county show this to be true.
Although voting in Sank Centre
was way below par, the same con-
ditions exist here as throughout
the state. Republicans polled al
most as many votes in the city as
did both of the other parties COM
bined. The total vote in the city
was 1913, Of which 1919 were cast in
the Second Ward and 129 in the
First Ward. This was only about
one-fourth of the total vote of the
city, and does not compare favorab-
ly with that of former years. In
the primary of 1884 the vote cast
was fifty percent Of the city's to-
tai.
In the First Ward 81 Republican
votes were cast, while there were
35 votes for the Farmer-Labor tick
ct and 35 for the Democratic cam
didates. In the second Ward 95
votes were cast on Republican bal
lots, while the Democrats polled SO,
and the Farmer-Laborites "A.
In the county vote Ralph Wool
sey was defeated by Joseph Row
alkowski, the count being $500 to
2925. In the Second District Com
missioner race Anton w. Traut,
present incumbent, led the field of
four candidates. In the Third Dis
trict Joseph M. Weber led with
815 votes. The results of the above
contests will be found in the coun-
ty vote.
We have secured the complete
vote of the county, from County
Auditor Nick Thomey, which to-

Besides the huge total, educa-
tional, charitable and correctional

alternative of pairing down re-

taste of financial problems which
will confront him when he takes
office next year. Seated by his side
was Governor Ehringhaus, who is
ex-officio director of the budget.
In the event the $25,000,000
grant is requested, petitions for al
lotments from the general fund
would total approximately $4O,>
900, 900 ,compared to $33,300,000
earmarked for distribution from
the fund during 1867.
Also included in the 100000
annual total are requests of $27,-
971,992 for the Highway and
Works commission and
for the Department of
Agriculture. In addition, it is ex-
to cost North Carolina a
maximum of $5,O0O,000 to parti-
cipate in the Federal social security
program. Permanent improvements
asked were $5,857,866 for educa-
tional institutions and $~1,558,602
for charitable and correctional in

presenting petitions for grants.

permanent improvements, COM
