It is stated that the complaints come mainly from farmers elevators, which ‘tare said to Mave greater. capacity or jdo more business in many commun- ities than the line elevators. The railroads have held that under the Interstate Commerce Commission rules they were obliged to distribute the cars in equal numbers to eleva- tors. ‘the car situation has not improv- ed, according to Railroad Commis- sioner C, W.

If anything, he says, it is “tighter” now than it has been, except that there is no de- mand for potato cars except for re- frigerator cars since it is too cold to ship in any except specially built cars, There is probably a more crying demand for livestock cars than for grain cars, Mr. MeDonnell said.

However, the many county and legislative con- tests which have become more in- tense this fall may increase the vote, T. G. Nelson, from headquarters, said: “The total vote (Repiblican and Democratic) ‘cast in June was 191,000 as compared with the total vote of 219,000 in the recall, and 229,000 in the general election in 1920. Two years ago Frazier received 117,00 votes. One year ago he received | 107,000, In the primary this year he {received 91,000 votes. The story told by the Frazier vote is the story for the whole League ticket. It has fall- en from a majority of 67,000 of the male vote only in 1916 to almost 5,000 less than a majority in 1921.| A few more vbters have changed their minds about Townleyism in each election until now there is not the slightest chance for the Fra- zier-Lemke ticket to get a majority on its side, if the voters who are convinced that Townleyism is not « good thing for North Dakota and its people, will go to the polls and vote their convictions as every good ci- tizen should do.” Some Meetings Small Two weeks ago both the league and anti-league leaders were com- plaining of lack of interest in the campaign. One Nonpartisan declared that some of Senator Ladd’s audi- ences in rural communities were dis- appointingly small for a United States Senator and attributed it to a lack of interest in politics. The interest has increased in the last week, however, they say, and in the Burleigh county rural meet- ings the crowds have been much larger in the last several days. | A traveling man coming into Bis- marck: last night from a week’s trip jover the Slopd ferritery said the Itopic of conversition most places is the shortage of railroad cars.

There is an unusually large num- ber of absent voters ballots being cast both in Burleigh county and elsewhere, reports stated. Nelson’s Idea The senatorship is the chief issue. Both Independents and Nonpartisans are confident, the Nonpartisans claimining a victory for Frazier by 20,000 and Independents seeing a sure victory for O’Connor. The state- ment of T. G. Nelson diagnoses the senatorship in this manner: “There is nothing in the situation to indidate that Frazier can get any June (91,000). We are certainly go- ing to have more than 200,00 votes | bounty which has been bestowed up-j on us.

If North Da- kota’s credit and good name is made to suffer, which it will if Frazier is elected to the United States sen- ate, the blame for it will have to rest on good citizens who will not vote for Frazjer and who fail to vote for O’Connor.
