Burtnéss shall or shall not appear on the official ballot as the repub- lican ‘candidate will, in their belief, make very little difference in the re- sult. The presence: or absence of th names of Judge Henry G. V Pembina, Frederick T. Cuthb Devils Lake and Charles \v. Plain of ‘Milton as rival individual repubsican nominees will have greater effect, for it {s.fair to believe these gentlamen if they remained on the ballot would receive some votes in spite of their avowed desire to withdraw. ANIME Real ‘Question: @ real question is whether the First. district,which gave Lynn J. Fratier, Nonpartisan republican can-! didite for governor, 8,000 more votes than it gave Henry T. Helgesen, a straight republican candidate for con- gress, will “stick” to such an extent as to give John M. Baer, Nonparti- san nominee, a walkaway over a field pf at least three opponents, and even those most bitterly opposed to the} league and methods adopted. in the nomination of Eaer are bound to con-; Yess the probability of an affirmative answer July 10. Frazier’s Vote in First Last November Lynn J. Frazier polled 28,908 votes in the First dis- trict. Henry T. Helgesen, republican candidate for congress, received 2! 1093. George A. Bangs, democratic candidate, 13,236, and V. Grams, so- cialist, 622, a ‘total of 34,567 votes be- ing cast for congress. Lynn J. Fra-| zier, the league’s leading vote-getter, recélved within 5, as many votes as all of the candidates combined. Frazier a resident of thé First district, has thrown his sup- port td Baer and will take the stump for him next week. All of the pow- erful machinery of the Nonpartisan league is behind Baer. Politically, the league cartoonist is an unknown quantity, but he has the league stamp —>—{x{z{zx{x{x{z{[{[{7—>==—_> TOBACE HABIT EASILY OVERCOME A New Yorker, of wide experience, has written a book telling how the tobacco or snuff habit may be easily and quickly banished wita delightful benefit. The author, Edward J. Woods, 1423 M, Station E, New York City, will mail his book free on re- quest. The health improves wonderfully af- ter tobacco craving is conquered. Cajmness, tranquil sleep, clear eyes, normal appetite, good digestion, man- ly vigor, strong memory and a gen- eral gain in‘ efficiency are among the many benefits reported.

It has been predicted that because of the unusual interest in the ap- proaching fight, 40,000 votes will he cast July 10, The assured candidates will be Olger B. Burtness of Grand Forks, repub! H. H. Aaker of Grand For! progressive Nonparti- san republi George A. Bangs of Grand Forks, democrat, and John M. Baer of Fargo, Nonpartisan. Grant- ing Aa a scattering support of 8,000 votes, and assuming that Bangs will hold a fair proportion of the supporters who voted for him st fall, there will be left approxi- mately 25,000 votes to be divided be- tween Burtness and Baer, and if Baer, with the league back of him, polls half as many Nonpartisan votes as werg cast for Lynn J. Frazier last fall, he, will finish a thousand or two to the good and leave Burtness third man. Stiff Fight On. ‘There is being made on Baer such a fight as Frazier was not subjected to. While MacArthur, Frazier’s op- ponent, had strong supp through- out the state, the democratic organ- ization was not back of him as the republican organization in the is now behind Burtness. OJd_ war- horses, such as A. T. Kraabel of Clif- ford, elected lieutenant-governor last fall, with the ‘endorsement of the league, have come out openly for the! republican: nominee.

In spite of all these facts, however, the betting at p mt favors Baer, simply because it is the belief of astute political prognosticators that league members, regardl of party affiliations or the man, will vote for their candidate with a view to con- vincing the public that the league is not, has been cl med, slipping.” handicap to s advantage D egian in people predom- inate; he has been progressive; nev- er regular; never aligned with the old “standpat” organizetion. “Will Beat Frazier Vote.” D.

REMITTANCE MAN HTS HOME TRL FAMILY SUFFER Slope County Frenchman, Be- lieved to Have Effected Re. conciliation Leaves Marmarth, N. D., June 29—A ro- mance involving the Bourbons of the old regime is nted in the sudden departure of 1 Flasque, a home- steader living in the rim rock -adja- rent to the Little Missouri, who stole away in the night following the re- ceipt of a communication bearing a crested letterhead from his father in rance. Flasque took with him the only team of horses on the place, a fine pair of blooded animais, and left | his western wife and two little chil-! dren alone on their homestead with} a meager food supply. After waiting several days her hus- band’s return, Mrs. Flasque, carrying her babes, made her way to the Sam White ranch, several miles distant, where she was taken in and cared for. Flasque is reported to have been a remittance man, and neighbors, who have some trusty ropes awaiting his return, believe that the note which caused his departure was a letter from his parents suggesting a recon- ciliation.
