NORTH DAKOTA'S OLDEST NEWSPAPER ESTABLISHED 1873 STATE GROUPS MAKING DRIVE FOR FULL VOTE Rain and Muddy Roads Halt Meetings This Week and Silence Candidates TOM HALL HAS FIGHT Wets and Drys Active on Referendum; Democrats In- dicating Little Interest North Dakota’s three Republican groups, in the home stretch of the state primary election campaign today, were making special appeals to the voters td go to the polls next Wednesday. Messages urging citizens to exer- cise their franchise were being broadcast throughout the state by radio and last-minute appeals went to the precinct workers of all groups to specially interest them- selves in getting out the vote. Throughout the campaign voters have been apathetic. Within the week, however, there have been a evidences of increased inter- est. Candidates in all.the groups were hampered this week by rains and impassable rural roads which result- ed from them. All were compelled to cancel meetings. Surface indications seemed to in- dicate the renomination of Senator Lynn J. Frazier over former Gover- nor Nestos, an easy victory in the first district for Congressman O. B. Burtness and in the Third for Con- gressman James H. Sinclair. In the Second district Congressman Tom Hall was facing one of the hardest fights of his entire public career and Ole Olson, farmer and League Republican candidate for Hall’s place, was developing strength that caused Hall’s friends to extend themselves and led Olson’s supporters to claim his certain vic- tory. Democrats Inactive While the Republican groups were active there was no evidence of special activity on the part of the Democrats. _ With only one con- test. on the Democratic ticket, that between Fred L. Anderson and J. K. Otto for governor, Democrats ap- rently were more interested in the Frouston convention than in the state campaign. They have a much larger regis- tration than two years ago, how- ever, and special appeals were being made to Democrats to stay within their party group at the primary. If these appeals are effective it is an open question who will be the beneficiary as between the state Republican candidates. Claims are that in the cities there will be a loss of votes for the Independents and that in rural districts the League Republicans will suffer. Political observers gave various opinions as to the effect of the wet and dry campaign on the state tickets, Wets in their campaign devoted all their attention to an appeal to voters to repeal the state’s constitutional prohibition law. While they have practically a full state ticket filed no appeal was being made for their candidates. Wet Paper Takes Stand bs The German newspaper, Staats- Anes: noblished in Bismpiek, campaigning for the repeal of the rohibition law of the state, in its Final issue before the pri 'y ap- pealed to its readers to vote as they pleased upon state candidates but to vote “yes” for repeal of the amendment. Drys were also active throughout the state.

Meanwhile, dispatches from Cam- bridge pictured Mrs. Bailie as de- fiant and unwilling to take the board’s action as “‘the last word.” “I stand on my constitutional rights as a daughter of the Amer- ican Revolution,” she said, “and I shall carry the matter before the national congress at the annual meeting next year. In the mean- time, I shall continue to educate the 165,000 members as to the real facts in the case.” Mrs. Bailie admitted the author- ship of a pamphlet entitled “Our Threatened Heritage,” the board said, which among other things falsely accused the society’s officers of unauthorized acts and “stated that its officers were duped hypnotized.” BOBBY JONES SETTING PACE Olympia Fields, Chicago, June 23. \—Shooting a 73, two over par, Bobby Jones increased his lead in the national open golf championship today.

June 23.—( Final returns show a 33 per decrease in feminine representa at the Democratic convention compared to the 1924 total. He: the Democratic women will hold seven per cent of the convention’s voting strength; the Republican Rare held six per cent at Kansas ity. A total of 146 women delegates and 272 women_alternates have been selected for the convention. In 1924, 200 women delegates and 311 women alternates went to New York. Because of the Democratic frac- tional voting system, however, the 146 women officially members of the Houston gathering will have ar. aggregate total of only 78 3-4 votes of the convention total of 1,100. The great majority of the women have only 1-2 vote each, some have only 2-5 vote, and the Texas delegates at large, 12 in number, have only 1-€ of a vote each. Only 13 states have followed the recommendation of the Democratic national committee by sending eight delegates at large, four men and four women. Seven sent only their previous total of four delegates at large, all men, but the majority of the states took advantage of the suggestion to increase the number of delegates but added more men instead of women as was intended in the committee’s recommendation. Women delegations from the vari- ous states will be considerably larger at Houston than at Kansas City, Missouri having 15, Texas 13 New York 8, California 6 and Iowa, Michigan, Minnesota, and Pennsyl- vania each 5, whereas the largest group of Republican delegates from any state was the New York dele- gation of 9. Because of the frac- tional voting method, however, the actual strength of the Democratic women is less than that of the Re- publicans. os Only five states, Idaho, North Da- ota, Oregon, South Dakota and Wisconsin, are sending no women MOTHER OF SON Los Angeles, June 28.—(?)—The Examiner today says in a copy- righted si that Mae Murray, stage and film star, and her hus- band, David M’Divani, who holds the title of a Prince of Georgia, are the parents of a son, born 16 months .
