Apparent from First The outcome of the removal issue was apparent almost from the first return, that from Christine in Rich- land county. Lying as it does, on the extreme eastern border of the state, this precinct revealed a heavy sentiment against removal. Then, as the returns began coming from widely separated points, that senti- ment was disclosed as general—and it was less than two hours after the polls had closed at 7 p.m. that the result could be definitely indicated. It was then merely a matter of maj- ority. In Jamestown, the removal idea had the support of 3,352 while 227 residents of that community express- ed themselves in opposition. Out of the long list of towns and cities from which reports had been received this morning Brantford, Buchanan, Eldridge, Melville, Wind- sor and Woodworth are the only ones. in the list of those favoring removal: Stutsman Stands Alone So far as the counties are con- cerned indications were final tabu- lations will reveal Stutsman is the lone county to vote for removal.

The figure is especially in- the petitions by which the election on this subject was ordered were circulated in Fargo in the early stages of the removal campaign and quired. 4 While the removal issue was clear- ly determined, and as returns began coming in on the gas tax increase, that issue, too, seemed doomed.
