Ae me Se HOOVER HAS SLIGHT MARGIN IN LITERARY DIGEST STRAW POLL €arly Returns Indicate That Many Republicans Are Changing Spots Hoover is ahead of Roosevelt by a émall margin in the first scattering returns of the Literary Digest’s 20,- 000,000-ballot nation-wide “straw” presidential poll, which is said to be! the largest unofficial referendum of| its kind ever conducted. | Of the 60,327 ballots returned Hoover has 28,193 votes and Roose- velt 27,654, making a percentage of 46.73 of the total for the Republican candidate as against 45.84 for the! Democratic leader. The other 7.43) per cent of the ballots are cast for | the five minor candidates with Nor- man Thomas leading these. Of the five states reported in this initial return Hoover is shown lead- | ing in Indiana and New York. Roose- | velt is ahead in Ohio, Pennsylvania and West Virginia. An analysis of “how the same vot- ers voted in 1928” shows that Roose- velt is receiving 39.51 per cent of his strength in these first returns from those who voted Republican four years ago while 44 per cent of his total balloting comes from the Demo- cratic voters in the last presidentia! election. The same tabulation shows Hoover obtaining 81.03 per cent of his total yotes from these who voted for him in 1928 with a gain of only 6.18 per vent from the Democratic ranks. A startling local shift in party- lines is indicated in the first returns from Pennsylvania, comprising 11,221 votes, which show that 46.44 per cent of the Democratic vote in that state is coming from former Republicans while Hoover there is capturing only 4.51 per cent of the Democratic vote of four years ago. The minor can- didates are getting their largest strength also, 8.88 per cent of the state’s vote, in Pennsylvania. In none of the five states reported is Roosevelt shown obtaining less than 25 per cent of his strength from the Republican columns, while in none of these does Hoover obtain more than 9 per cent of his votes from Democratic partisans of four years ago. ‘An interesting feature of the poll! shows that 15 per cent of the voters| in this unofficial balloting did not cast a vote in 1928, which may be largely accounted for probably by —_______—_-e | Weather Report { —— = —~* FORECASTS For Bismarck and vicinity: Prob- ee, ably fair tonight and Saturday; warmer tonight.

Roosevelt carried his campaign to within 35 miles of the legal residence of President Hoo- ver, whom he hopes to succeed in the white house. The Democratic nominee's state- ment that liberal Republicans were giving a “remarkable response” to his plea to forget party lines, was coup- led with praise for Senator Hiram Johnson, California, Independent Re- publican who often has clashed with President Hoover. Shortly before he was welcomed by great San Francisco throngs Thurs- day night, the New York governor in Sacramento—the state capital —de- scribed Johnson as “long a warrior in the ranks of true American: progress” and endorsed his most recent critic- ism of the administration. Farller in the week Johnson had told the State Federation of Labor ‘a government which “thinks only of a. favored few .. . unworthy of the name and unfit to govern.” Said Roosevelt at the capital: “There is another principle that I am stressing wherever I speak that I know is in line with the fundamental ideas of your state and that is that in this campaign there is going to be less following of party lines than ever before in history. “The people of this country have come to believe that what this coun- try needs is new leadership and tha: the battle we are waging is a battle for new leaders—not a mere change of party; not a mere change of party emblem; not a mere change of names, but a change of principle—a new deal.” The Democratic candidate Friday faced a busy program of speeches and conferences with state and local party leaders. Police estimated approximately 100,000 persons jammed. the water- front at Oakland and the Embarca- qero, San Francisco’s water front, and along Market street, as Roose- velt entered the Golden Gate city and drove to the historic Palace hotel. Soon after he arrived, Roosevelt was visited by Gov. James Rolph, Jr., @ Republican. Friday was the 11th day of the Roosevelt campaign tour. From here he swings south to Los Angeles and | the return journed by way of Arizona, New Mexico, Colorado, Nebraska, Towa, Wisconsin, Illinois and Michi- gan. He will return to Albany Oct. 3 in time for the state convention of his party. Deering Farmer Dies In Minot City Jail Minot, N. D., Sept. 23—(P)—Oscar Hatley, farmer living near Deering, died in the Minot city jail Wednes- day night, after he had been taken there from a billiard room in the city when someone noticed there was something wrong with him and sum- moned the police. Belief was expressed by Dr. R. W. Pence, Ward county coroner, that Hatley died as a result of drinking “canned heat.” Hatley had been a drinker of “canned heat” for some- time, Dr. Pence said he had learned, and he was informed by police that the man had been drinking before he was taken to the police station. ' 25 Testify in Carl Cox Trial at Minot Minot, N. D., Sept. 23.—(?)—Intro- duction of testimony by the state in the trial in Ward county district court, in which the removal from of- fice of Police Magistrate Carl N. Cox is sought, was completed Thurs- |to disclose the facts regarding aMdiay forenoon and the defendant took the stand to testify in his own behalf. Twenty-five witnesses testified for the state, in the state's attorney's effort to prove to the jury that the magistrate has failed and neglected to perform the duties of his office. Under direct examination, the po- lice magistrate said he is years, old and has been police magistrate Center of Population Has Moved Westward; Pays Tribute to M’Kenzie (Editors Note: This is the last of a series of articles written for the Associated Press by Burleigh F. Spalding of Fargo, a member of the commission which located and constructed the capital of Dakota Territory at Bismarck. By B. F. SPALDING Work was pushed on the capitol as rapidly as possible but progress was slow during the fall and winter. July 31st, 1884, a meeting of the commission was held for the purpose of settling with the contractor, but it was found that his work was not entirely complete and there were some differences between him and the commission on the amount due, so settlement was postponed. November 13th, 1884, a meeting was held and a resolution was adopted in- ‘structing the president and secretary of the commission to inform the gov- ernor of the territory of the erection and completion of the capitol build- ing, as follows: “Whereas the act entitled an act to provide for the location of the seat of government and for the erection of public buildings thereat, among other things provides that when the capitol building is completed it shall be the duty of the commissioners named in said act to report said fact to his excellency the governor. “And whereas the said building is now completed and ready for occu- Pancy therefor, “Resolved that the president and secretary of the commission be and they are hereby authorized to make report of the said completion of said capitol building to the governor in accordance with section twelve of said act.” Mellon Bill Approved Among the interesting items which I find relating to examination and allowance of bills is this: Prior to December 18th, 1884, a committee had been appointed to examine, check up and report all bills, and at a meeting held on the 18th of December a re- port was made, and among other things it states: “The bills of R. B, Mellon for $3962.10 for grading upon capital park grounds, was examined and a civil engineer called upon to examine and confirm estimate of number of yards of dirt moved. Engineer‘reported that the number of yards méved wag 13,- 768, which at 30c per yard would amount to more than the bill submitted by Mr. Mellon. It was con- sidered, from the nature of the History Proves Capitol Commission Chose Well for moving the dirt and grading, and it is recommended that the bill be allowed as presented which would be Jess than 30c per yard for work done. The bill of R. B. Mellon for trees set out upon the capital park grounds and for the work in setting them for $224, was examined and found that only the actual expense of getting and setting out the trees was charged. It is therefore recommended, that the bill be allowed.” It will be recognized that Mr. R. B. Mellon was one of the Mellon Brothers of Pittsburgh and a brother of the present ambassador to the Court of St. Janies and one of the owners of a bank in Bismarck to which I have heretofore referred. He was then spending much time in Bismarck. Held In New Building The 1885 session of the territorial legislature was held in the new build- ing and at each session of the legis- lature until division and statehood considerable ingenuity and much log- rolling was necessary to secure addi- tional appropriations necessary to its maintenance. Nearly all of the people who participated or took an active interest in the removal of the capital and the erection of the building have gone west. I think General E, A. Williams of Bismarck, who was speaker of the house of representa- tives in the session which enacted the removal law and who died only a short time since, was about the last surviving member of that legislative assembly. All the members of the capital commission have gone except George A. Mathews and myself. Mr. Mathews was alive two or three years ago and a resident of Los Angeles, California. It will be recalled by those who in 1883 resided in what is now North Dakota that at that time farming in the western two-thirds of the state had not developed as fully as it had in the eastern part and it was gen- efally believed that only the eastern part was suitable for the raising of General crops, and that the western part was unfit for anything but graz- ing, and consequently, would never support any considerable population. If this opinion had been correct, of course, Bismarck would have re- mained considerably one side of the center of population. This opinion undoubtedly accounted for consider- able of the disapproval manifested in what is now North Dakota of the location of the capital at Bismarck, but as the west has developed and its agricultural and other indus- tries have grown marvelously, Bis- marck is doubtless as near the center of gravity and as readily accessible as any place within the state which might then have been selected. Tribute To McKenzie ground and the work done, that 30c{ To the resourcefulness of Mr. Alex- Per yard would be @ reasonable sum ander McKenzie, aided and supported dent of the commission, the people of Bismarck and of Ahe state are in- debted for what has proved to be an acceptable location. Efforts made since the destruction by fire of the building erected by the commission, to change the location are strong evidence of the wisdom and vision of those men responsible for the selec- tion of Bismarck. While his methods were not always above criticism there is little doubt of Mr. McKenzie’s loy- | by General Alexander Hughes, presi-| beginning of and of his desire to serve it to the utmost of his ability. He deserves especially at the hands of Burleigh county and of \the western portion of the state a fitting monument to his devotion to their interests. The ;) destruction of the old building and the investment of two million dollars in a new capitol inevitably settles for all time that Bismarck will remain the legislative and political center of our great state. Note: Mr. Spalding in a previous article said he believed the corner- stone of the territorial capitol was laid by either Henry Villard, presi- dent of the Northern Pacific rail- road, or the German ambassador. Since then Mr. Spalding has had ac- cess to records showing that the cornerstone was laid by Governor Nehemiah G. Ordway, assisted by Mr. Villard. E CoNTINEED Three Girls Leave On Big Prize Trips has been active in club work since it was inaugurated in the county. For three years she has been a delegate to the 4-H club state conventions in Fargo and two years ago, in recogni- tion of her sewing display at the state style show, was named as the most outstanding club girl in North Dakota. As a prize she was awarded a sewing machine. In addition to her high school ac- tivities, she finds time to act as ad- visor for the Senior Sewing club of McKenzie and is junior leader of the Jolly Juniors club. She was presi- dent of the county 4-H clubs for two years. Her father, who will have been a resident of Burleigh county 51 years Oct. 4, is president of the Burleigh County Pioneers’ association. Realizes a Dream For Dorothy Seitz, who was born in Mandan, March 2, 1914, and who has spent all her 18 years there, the trip will be the realization of a long- cherished dream. Since a child she has wanted to travel and now, when she actually is to start on her first long trip, she confesses that it seems “too good to be true.” Dorothy has planned for many | years to become a nurse and this am- bition bids fair to be realized soon, for she hopes to register for the nurses’ training course at Northwest- ern university, Evanston, Ill, at the since 1925. He declared he had ac- counted to the city for every dollar received through his office. Church of Coleharbor Hi Union Sunday School every Sunday | morning in the school use.

Since Ihave been eating it, people tell me looking better, and I am sure that I feel_a great deal better.”— Mrs, L. W. Duke, 210 Hardin Ave., College Park, Ga. Constipation is usually caused by lack of two things in the diet “Bulk” to exercise the intestines: Vitamin B to help give them tone. Kellogg’s ALt-BRAN provides both of these dietary necessities, as well as iron for the blood. * Within the body, the “bulk” in ‘BRAN forms 't mass, which gently clears the intestines of ‘wastes. How much more natural it is to enjoy this delicious cereal than to risk taking pills and drugs—so | often harmful. i | Just eat two tablespoonfuls daily |; + serious cases with every meal — | for most types of constipation.
