Un- ESTA BLISHED 1873 BISMARCK, NORTH DAKOTA, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 8, 1924 THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE (om) PRICE FIVE CENTS -~COOLIDGE’S FINAL LEAD NEAR 5,000 SHE'LL RULE TEXAS STATEHOUSE INDEPENDENTS RETAIN POWER TOBLOCK N. P. L. Control of Important Offices and One Branch Legisla- ture Gives Them Power ONE DEADLOCK SEEN Sorlie as Governor and Inde- pendent ‘Majority on In- dustrial Commission Equal The Independents in North Dakota will surrender control of many im- portant offices in the state after} January 1, but will remain a power- ful minority, able to block efforts of Nonpartisans to extend the state industries or radically revise the governmental machinery of the state. Reelection of Attorney - General George F.‘ Shafer and Commissioner of Agriculture and Labor Joseph A.1 Kitchen leaves the Independents with a majority on the Industrial ( Commission, and control of the state senate is an effective estoppel legislative program fost- ered by the Nonpartisans. The Industrial Commission will be a deadlock, however, although the Independents have two of the three members, A. G. Sorlie, Governor- elect and Nonpartisan, is the third member and chairman of the com- mission. Under’ the laws creating the Industrial Commission, however, the Governor is given veto power 1 over the majority. The situation created is that Sorlie may prevent anything Kitchen and Shafer do from becoming effective, and they may block his ideas. The result will be either cooperation on the part of the three members or difficulty in agreeing on a program. Appointments Controlled The Industrial Commission con- trols the appointment of the Mana- ger of the Bank of North Dakota, and since the Independents have 2 majority they can name the per- sonnel of the institution. The same is true of the state mill and elevator « at Grand Forks. {, presumably to be filled soon, It 43 ikely also that the Deposi- tors Guaranty Fund Commission will remain able to carry out the polic- ies now being pursued with refer- ence to the liquidation of , closed banks, and the supervisory powers granted under the law of July 1, 1923, to the commission. The mem- bers of this commmission are Gover- nor, ex-officio; Manager of Bank of North Dakota, ex-officio; S. G, Sev- ertson of Bismarck, first appointed by Governor Frazier and reappoint- ed by Governor Nestos, whose term expires July 1, 1926; C. B. McMillan of Hannah, whose term expires July 1, 1925; and there is one vacancy, AL. Netcher of Fessenden was appointed to the commission but was not quali- fied. The state examiner is ex- officio secretary. Should Governor stos and the Industrial Commis- n desire, it appears that they may, through filling of the present vacancy and control of the appoint- ment of the Bank of North Dakota, make certain a continuation of the present policies of the Guaranty Fund Commission. . Immense appointive power is given the Governor of the state, but it is somewhat limited by yequiremeént, of confirmation by the Senate of three major appointments. They are the state bank’ examiner, tax com- missioner and state engineer. The \\term of Gilbert Semingson, state ex- -daminer, expires March 12, 1925; the term of W. G. Black, state engineer, expires April 2, 1927, and the term of C. C. Converse, state tax com- missioner, expires July 26, 1925. Under the requirement that these be confirmed by the Senate, the Inde- pendents would be able to block ap- pointment of men they did not ap- prove. However, it is possible for the Governor to make appointments when the legislature is not in s sion; and in this manner he may, it is believed by some, carry’ out his own desires. Banking Board Control Control of the Banking Board, an important body, will be passed to the Nonpartisans. This ‘board is com- posed of the Governor, who will be A. G. Sorlie: the Secretary of State, who will be Robert Byrne, both Non- partisans, and the Attorney-Gen- eral. The election has made no change. in the state goard of administration, which controls the state educational, penal and charitable institutions. The two ex-officio members are Commissioner of griculture and Labor J. A. Kitchen and State Sup- erintendent Minnie J.. Nielson. There are three appointive members, at present R. B. Murphy, chairman; H. P. Goddard and F, E, Diehl. All are appointed by the Governor. The auditing board, which audits bills for expense of the various de- partments, will be controlled by the Nonpartisans. The members are the Governor, Commissioner of Insur- ance and Treasurer, who will be Nonparti: the Attorney-General, State Examiner and the Auditor, who is ex-officio secretary.

Now that FARM PROBERS ‘ARE APPOINTED BY PRESIDENT Coolidge Names Commission To Inquire Into Methods of Permanent Aid NO SPECIAL SESSION President Sees no Need of Summoning Congress to Meet at this Time Washington, Nov, 8.—President Coolidge went forward today with his post-election plans, the first of which was set in operation yester- day with the appointment of the commission to investigate agricult- ural conditions.* A conference of the commission comprising eight representatives of farming interests drawn from practically all sections of the country expected to be called for the middle of this month. Robert D. Carey of Careyhurst, Wyoming, a former Governor of that state, is chairman and the membership, ‘it was indicated, may be increased. Studies Legislation With the appointment of this vol- untary body, President Coolidge car- ried out one of the few proposals he advanced in accepting the nom- ination of the party as standard bearer. He hopes to have his leg- islative recommendations before him in time for action at the coming short session of Congress. )Thisy and appropriation bills, are now the only measures which will require the attention of the expiring Con- gress, «Mr. Coolidge is of the opinion ut present needs would not war- rant the calling of a special session of the new Congress before its reg- ular meeting in December, next year. Nor does he believe it feas- ible to bring up again with the present Congress, which passes out of existence March 4, problems of, tax reduction.

The men selected are believed at the White House to be representa- tiv of farmers generally and well acquainted with agricultural condi- tions. As a result it is believed a program may be outlined by them without undue delay and probably in time for action upon any propos- at session of the present next als requiring legislative action the short congress, which will convene month, 400 PYTHIANS TO ASSEMBLE Big Class Is Planned at Man- dan Monday Night Mandan, N.

Slope Shows That Entire “German Vote” Not Against Him, as Predicted IN COUNTIES Local Several Fights Marked Election in Western North Dakota Interesting Dickinson, N. D., Nov. 8.—One of the results of the election which proved prognosticators were wrong is that Robert M. LaFollette did not hold every “German vote” in his vest pocket. Throughout southwestern North Dakota, where it was reported a few wees ago that LaFollette would have a remarkable vote be- cause every person of German de- cent was for him, the President re- ceived u good vote. Stark county was ‘one of these counties. President Coolidge, in Stark, got 2,201 votes to 1,784 for LaFollette, 260 for Davis and 11 for Foster, a plurality of 417 for Cool- idge. Dickinson gave the President 995 votes compared to 550 for LuFol- lette, and the President held his own outside Dickinson. In Logan county, one of these counties, Coolidge got 787 votes to 994 for LaFollette. He did not do so well in Emmons, getting 992 to 1522 for LaFollette in 32 off36 precincts, nor in McIntosh, getting 527 to 1042 for LaFollette. The President car- ried Morton county by 350 votes and also did well in many other south- western counties.

With but 32 seuttered rural precincts to be heard from out of the state's 2,160, the vote gave: Coolidge 94,181; Lae Follette 88,443; Davis 13,409. As the outstanding districts are conceded to LuFollette it is expecte ed that Coolidge’s majority will be diminished slightly. Although first reports indicated that North Dakota had cast a rec- ord-breaking vote, unofficial, but carefully checked returns from these reported precincts show that the toe tal vote will hardly reach the 200,- {000 mark. In the .9Z0 general elec- tion 606 votes were cast for Governor and 197,485 for President. Although Coolidge secured a majors ity he fell below that gained by President Harding—-160,072, Hows ever, Covlidge’s showing in this state is considered by his supporte ers much more remarkable than Harding's, in view of the bitter op- position occasioned by LaFollette’s candidacy, John Davis got less than 50 percent of the vote’ polled by James Cox, who received’ a vote of 37,418 North D.kota Democrats. Close Contest The closest contest in the entire election in North Dakota was aps parently held for Second District Congressman between Thomas Hall, Republican, and Gerald Nye, Proe Rressive, to succeed George Young, Repub) » who tesigned to accep$ {the position tendered him by Prese ident Coolidge as customs appraiser, As Mr. Young's resignation left ope ened un expired term, ending March , the two rivals also fought for that office. Mr. Nye gave @ statement Wednesday night conced- ing Mr. Hall's election but Thurs ‘day night withdrew it when he heard from his workers who expecte ed to overtake Hall's lead. Today, - however, Hall was elected in both contests. In the long term contest the vote stood 742 precincts out of 749, Hall 30,872; Freerks of Jamestown was a very poor third with 304 votes, The vote in the short term cons ‘28 precincts out of 749, Hall Nye 30,177. The remaining nets do not have enough votes to erase this majority and therefore on the basis of unofficial returns Mr. Hall undoubtedly was returned victor.
