= R RN R A, | i i 3 SRPE HE state canvassing board has just completed its work of count- ing and compiling the results of the June 28 primary election. The final official result gives Lynn J. Frazier, the farmers’ candidate for governor, a majority of 3123 over the total vote of all candidates opposing him, and a plurality of 15,884 over Burdick. The actual vote was: Frazier, 39,246; Burdick, 23 ,362; Fraine, 9780; Smith, 2981. - Frazier carried all but seven of the 62 counties in the state.’ Burdick carried Cass, Richland, - Sheridan and Williams counties, . Sheridan ‘only by 50 votes. Fraine carried MecIntosh, . Sioux and Stark counties. Hall for secretary of state, indorsed by the Nonpartisan League, made the best run on the Republican ticket, beat- ing. Hjort 59,906 votes to 13,643. Mac- donald, indorsed by the League for state supenntendent of schools, ran the next best, getting 58,509 votes to 30,247 for Hoover. He ran on the nonpartisan school ballot so that Democrats and Republicans alike could vote for him. Hall carried every county in the state and Macdonald all but two, Cass, the home county of Hoover, and Stark, where the League was not well organized. WONDERFUL RUN MADE BY COURT CANDIDATES The final official figures show the wonderful run made by the candidates for the supreme court who had the indorsement of the League, which prac- tically assures them election next November by large majorities. Robin- son of Fargo, the veteran lawyer and jurist, led the ticket with 40,351 votes, over 8000 ahead of the highest vote given one of the present court incumbents. Grace, who ran third, led the highest vote given the present court by over 4000. He had the League indorsement. Birdzell, who also had the League indorsement, ran close to Robinson and second in the race. There were eight candidates in the field, the three League Count of State Slisht Changes Are Shown in Results As Previously Reported candidates, the three judges now on the court, Former Supreme Judge Spaulding . and Adamson of Devils Lake. Goss, one of the incumbents, and Adamson are eliminated by the primaries and the race this fall will be between Robinson, Bird- zell, Grace, Burke, Fisk and Spaulding. The official vote was: Robinson, 40,351; Birdzell, 89,971; Grace, 36,829; Burke, 32,286; -Fisk, 81,836; Spaulding, 25,049; Goss, 23,310; Adamson; 13,615. Langer, the League candidate for the Republican nomination for attorney gen- eral, made a run that even surprised him- self. He beat Linde, incumbent, 45,576 to 26,317. He carried every county of the 52 except six, carrying Cass, which Frazier failed to carry. He lost to Linde in Billings by only two votes, in Logan by ‘only 21 votes and in Sioux by only North Dakota farmers. can be started soon. you.” UP TO FARMERS The Fargo Forum in its issue of Aug- ust 5 asks “What does the board of " regents intend to do with the Agricul- tural college?” Rather a pertinent question—most anyone will agree with that. We refer the esteemed Forum to the next legislature made up of farmers and suggest that the question be change'd to RASMUSSON BOOSTS FOR DAILY “Put me down as a subscriber for the Dakota Daily Leader,” said George N. Rasmusson of Dazey, owner of nine sections of North Dakota land and one of the most able and prosperous of Mr. Rasmusson mteuupted harvest work last week to come into town on district school business, sacrificing his own time and money in the interests of his community. “The crop failure this year is the worst blow the farmers in our vicinity have had in many years,” he said. farmers have seen what was coming and, in a way, became recon- ciled to hard luck. This year, with the abundant rains, prospects looked good for a fine harvest. Then, almost in a day, they saw their wheat go wih the heat and rust. “We need a new daily paper in this state badly. . The farmers are disgusted with the sheets they have been getting. I hope there will be enough responses to the Leader’s offer so the new daily I will do what I can to get subscribers for 96060000000000000000000000000000000000000020000000000000 “In dry years the “what- will the farmers do to the board of regents?”—COOPERATORS’ HER- ALD. - X | PRAISE FOR THE LEADER | Editor Nonpartisan Leader: | The Leader of the 10th instant is | a good one, especially page 8, referr- | ing to grade. fixing.

Hagan, 43,712; Flint, 26,828. HUGE LEADS SHOWN ; BY LEAGUE CANDIDATES Olsness, farmer of Sheyenne, indorsed by the League for commissioner of insur- ance, did practically as well, He beat Taylor, incumbent, 40,237 to 29,830. .°. Kraabel, indorsed by the League for lieutenant governor, made a sensational run against Sorlie, whose sole platform was a declaration against the farmers’ organization. Kraabel got 46,902 votes and Sorlie only 25,103. Kositzky, indorsed by the League for state auditor, beat Jorgenson, who has been elected every time he ran in the past, by over 8000 votes. The official count was: Kositzky, 39,088; Jorgenson, 30,654. The League’s three farmers who ran for the railroad comimssion beat the present railroad .commission for renom- ination by a big vote. The incumbents have been elected and reelected since the memory of men runneth not' to the contrary. They were believed to be a permanent state institution, but the farmers were too much for them. The vote was: Aandahl, League candidate, 87,772; Anderson, incumbent,- 26,798; Bleick, League candidate, 38,008; John- son, League candidate, 42,498; Mann, 27,662; Stutsman, incumbent, 26,144.

McArthur was nominated for this office’ by the Democrats by a substantial plurality. The Socialist primary vote for senator was-1847. The total primary vote in all parties therefore was.about 89,000.
