The outcome of the contest for Re- publican and Democratic delegates to the national presidential conventions remained undetermined, with only a few returns available. County audi- tors were expected to begin those tab- ulations Thursday. Returns on the proposal to move the state capital from Bismarck to Jamestown showed the issue had been defeated by about an eight to one vote, with later tabulations giving a gradual increase against the proposal. Transcending in importance was the tremendous vote polled in the Democratic primaties. In the several presidential preference primary elec- tions that have been held in North fight.

ROOSEVELT GOVERNOR OF OHIO Majority of State’s G. 0. P. Delegation Will Be Known to Be Moist Cleveland, March 17.—(#)—Two ments in Ohio, with possibly far- reaching reverberations, entered the forefront of national politics Thurs- day. In Cleveland, Maurice Maschke, national Republican committeeman, disclosed that for the first time since prohibition a majority of Ohio's del- egation to the Republican national convention will be known to be wet. At Columbus, the Democratic gov- ernor, George White, listed by the Anti-Saloon League as a friend of| prohibition when elected two years ‘ago, was on record Thursday as fav- oring a referendum on the 18th amendment. Speaks Before W. C. T. U. -Gov. White, the state's “favorite son” for the Democratic presidential nomination, made his referendum de- claration for the first timie, at a re- gional conference’ of the Women’s Christian Temperance Union at Asserting his belief that prohibi- ing a popular vote, the governor startled the dry assemblage with the statement he favored resubmission if for no other reason than to refute claims the liquor laws were forced through during the World war when thousands of citizens were overseas. Semi-suppressed “nays” greeted the remarks of the gray-haired chief éxecutive who started his career as &@ gold-digger in the Klondike, but he continued: “It is the right of my record to at least make these sug- gestions for your careful considera~ tion.” ‘Making a Mistake’ Declaring that the W. C. T.

The payments made the total for the month $44,701,384 and for the fiscal year $702,822,726, For the same number of days in March last year income tax payments amounted to $58,124,904 and for the fiscal year $1,229,- 555,929. The receipts this year are not strictly comparable to those re- ceived on the first day last year. The drop, however, has been so sharp that officials do not expect total collections for March will amount to more than $175,000,000. hs would be in order on an amendment calling for a $5 a barrel tax on 2.75 per cent beer.

The showdown will come soon. General debate will be ended Thurs- day night and consideration of amendments of the billion dollar measure will start with Friday’s ses- sion.

J., Mar. 17.—(AP)— Col. and Mrs. Charles A. Lindbergh, waiting stoically through the drag- ging days and nights, were reported Thursday to pin their hopes on: (1) A police belief that Charles Augustus Lindbergh, Jr., kidnaped 16 days ago, still is alive. (2) A feeling that when the furor subsides, the kidnapers may nego- tiate the 20-month-old child’s return. The world excitement that followed the crime already is dying down. Wednesday newspapermen here sent cut by telegraph only 50,000 words. On March 3, at the high pitch, 240,- 000 words streamed over the wires.

Yen, representing China on the League of Nations council, told the assembly’s commit- tee on the Far East Thursday that there had been no further “progress in. negotiations for an armistice at Shanghai. Naotake Sato, however, reported as the Japanese spokesman, that negotiations were proceeding hopefully.

SAYS NEW MANCHURIAN GOVERNMENT TOTTERS Tokyo, March 17—(?)—The brand new dictatorial government of the dapper young Henry Pu-Yi, heir of the ancient Manchu emperors, was reported tottering in Manchuria by Japanese press dispatches today, over the question of General Ma Chan- Shan, who has been named its war minister. Revolts which have occurred at Taheio and Manchuli, in General Ma’s province of Heilungkiang, have caused the former defender of Tsit- sihar to rush home from the new dic- tatorial court at Chang Chun, re- ports to the Rengo news agency said, breaking away in the midst of the offi who said he believed the in- fant was alive. The New York Daily News said the colonel had hired a private de- tective ‘agency to augment the searching forces and had given it full power to act for him in nego- tiating with the kidnapers.

Missouri Slope Counties close on Burleigh's Heels For First Place ‘With steadily mounting returns from all sections of the state, the margin of Bismarck’s victory in the capital removal vote continued to grow Thursday. The count, with 1,393 of 2.235 precincts reported, was 117,958 for Bismarck and 16,752 for Jamestown. Indications Tuesday that James- town would carry no county outside of Stutsman were borne out by fur ther returns, although Eddy county, which had @ capital removal boom of its own back in 1916, gave Jamestown @ fair vote. This was the only coun- ty in which, on the basis of early returns, Bismarck did not have a lead of at least two to one. All of the larger cities in the state gave Bismarck heavy majorities, al- though the percentage of ‘votes against capital removal was slightly smaller in these centers than in the smaller towns and rural districts. At Fargo the vote was eight to one for Bismarck and Grand Forks re- Ported the same margin. Minot ex- ceeded this figure and in some other centers the count ran as high as 20 to Raa! even above that. Barnes county, next door to Stutsman, gave Bismarck @ majority of about five to one . Burleigh, of course, returned the biggest majority and the heaviest percentage, but all other Missouri Slope counties were close on its heels. At 3 p.m. Thursday Bismarck’s margin in the race was running about seven to one. With 1,777 of the state's 2,235 precincts reported the vote was: Bismarck 144,225; Jamestown 21,168. —_—_______..____» | Capital Removal | Vote Tabulation | (By The Associated Press) County Pets.
