~ Enrollment at FRIDAY, OCTOBER GOOLIDGE LEAD CUT SOMEWHAT IN POLL IN U.S.) President, However, Continues | : Far Ahead of Davis and LaFollette CALIFORNIA VOTE: N ’ paar Davis and LaFollette have de- creased. the proportional lead of | Coolidge in this week’s returns of | The Literary Digest’s 15,000,000 vote | fi presidential poll published today. Of the 689,019 ballots tallied Svolidge has 397,522, D: 118, and LaFollette 164,366, which is in for both the Demo- | Progressive candidates arlier returns of The Di- and from the gest’s poll. Returns from eighteen States are recorded in the present count show- ing Coolidge leading in every state except Virginia and Texas, where Davis is ahead, and Wisconsin, where LaFollette polls a plurality. The Progressive candidate is run-j{ ning second in eleven of the cigh- | teen states and Davis is second in five. 5 first returns,” states The when the votes stood at ave Coolidge 16,071, Davis, 3,791, and LaFollette, 5,596. It will readily, be seen that Mr. Davis pre- } sent vote is at a much improved ation. “In the earliest returns, Mr. Cool- idge had between four and _ five | times as many as his Democratic | opponent. In the present poll of | 689,019 votes, the Republican can- didate has only a trifle more than three times as many, a very con- siderable reduction in his propor- tional lead. Cuts Coolidge Lead i “Mr. LaFollette, also, has cut} down the lead of the President, the | first returns showing the Coolidge strength at approximately three to one in LaFollette’s case, while the | present report gives somewhat less than two and one-half to one. “Mr, LaFollette’s popular vote | continues to be well above that reg- istered by Mr. Davis, but, of course, on the basis of the returns so far received, Mr. D: would have the greater number of votes in the Electoral College. Only Wisconsin is thus far credited to the Wiscon- | sin Senator, with Minnesota, where he was expected to have a consider- able lead, thus far, apparently, safe in the Republican column. “The state that continues to hold the center of the stage, however, is California, where LaFollette has piled up a total of 38,92 against the President's 45 though this shows a slight weaken- } ing in the LaFollette strength since The Digest’s first printed returns of 1,624 for Cooljdge and 1,561 for LaFollette the isconsin candi- .date’s..apparent strength continues to surprise those political prophets who had confided California to the Republican fold.” TWO IN FAMILY INJURED IN CAR ACCIDENT: Dickinson, Oct. and a passenger es when the truck Mr. tipped over whi a 3.-Herman Rabe | aped uninjured Rabe was driving coming down the hill north of Mike Gress’ farm.

D., Oct. 3.—Minot police were furnished with the description of George Combes, 15 year old son of Mr. and Mrs. R. F. Combes, farmers of the Granville vicinity, who came to Minot a week ago and has been missing since Saturday of last week, The lad had come to Minot with a can of cream and to have the family car, a Willys-Overland, overhauled. He was expected to return within a day or so and yesterday, the fam- ily having become worried at his absence, the father phoned the Stearns garage where the car was to have been taken. Men at the garage reported that the Combes yhoy had left the garage at 9 p. m. ‘Saturday with the gas and oil tanks filled and said~that he was leaving for home. No one can be located who has seen his since that time. The lad had no money with him, the father said except that from the cream check, $10.20, and had just the day before given to his mother $16 which he had earned threshing for a neighbor.

REPORT Dam Would Back Up Water in Apple Creek For Two Miles, Engineers Say A description of the proposed dam on Apple Creek, southeast of Bis- marek, near Falconer hill, to create tificial lake and irrigate land, contained in the report of the state engineer. The project is ex- plained as follows: “During June of 1924, at the re an {quest of a number of citizens of Bi marck, the state engineer's office made a survey of a dam site on Ap- ple Creek situated in the southeast quarter of section 27, township 138 north, range 80 west. The purpose of the survey v advisability of creating an artificial lake near the city of Bismarck for boating and fishing, and as a possi- y | ble addition to the Bismarck parking | “He that covereth his sin shall, s stem, The result of the survey showed that by the construction of a dam ,500 feet in length and 25 feet high, containing 106,000 cubic yards of earth, a reservoir approximately two miles long and one mile wide at its greatest width could be formed. The banks of the proposed reser- voir’are for the most part steep and the shore line well defined, so that there will be no unsightly mud flats visible due to fluctuations in the wa- ter level of the reservoir. H “It is proposed to excavate a spill- | way from the north end of the dam site to the lower end of the Bismarck flats. The excess water when avail- able may thus be utilized for flood irrigation on the lower Bismarck flats. It is proposed to utilize the | material excavated from the spill- | way amounting to 35,000 cubic yards | of earth, in the construction of the,| dam. The project as outlined is therefore simply earth excavation with a minor concrete structure to| control the outlet, this structure to) be located at the upper end of the; spillway, | The height of the proposed dam{ will be five feet above the extreme | flood height of the Missouri River | at the flood stage of 1881, or ap- proximately ten feet above the 1917} flood, backwater in the Missouri riv- | er being the governing feature. “A>lake 815 acres in extent will be} formed between the proposed dam| and the section line road running east from Fort Lincoln. Approxi- mately 320 acres more in Section 13 north of this road will be either flooded or rendered useless by the construction of the reservoir. “The lower Bismarck flats com: prising about 3,500 acres could be ir- tigated by gravity from this reser- voir, However, the fluctuation in the lake level due to the use of the water for-irrigation would be detri- mental to the primary purposes for which the project was designed. Ir- rigation will have to be considered as a secondary feature only, unless the upper Apple Creek reservoir mentioned in another part of this re- port be constructed. “The water supply available has been estimated by a compgrison with the run-off data from heighboring streams that have been measured for the past twenty years. * * * Un- der average conditions the loss sus- tained through evaporation over a reservoir area of 1250 acres is about to determine the | dignified, as you wish.
