At Ibis lime there are no 01 posing candidates for the office c mayor , city clerk , treasurer or clt engineer. The elecllon of councllme for the two wards are in question. I G.

Howard Kostor wa nominated for the long term and wl find opposition in the perso'n of Ha ry Poxton. George Kerguson wa nominated for the short term and h is opposed by R. H. Rico. All of th candidates go on the ballot by pet fion. Candidates and their workers -at1 in evidence daily and this electio promises to be one of the most live ly cjty campaigns Neligh has expe ionced in many years. There is pra tlcally no issue at stake , and as fi as the saloon question Is concorne that is up tt ) the'voters for decisloi There has apparently been rumor I the effect that an effort would 1 made-to decrease the saloon license from the fart that a signed statomei by R. .1. Porsyth and U. H. Rico 1 the local papers give the assurunc that they will In no way favor a r duction. The usual rumors In a ell election of tills nature , where two c more candidates are In the field ft the same office , are circulated aboi every day. Mr. Auringer states tli : it is keeping him busy running dow these statements where he tliinl they have been wrongfully quoted. North Dakota Primaries. Kansas City Journal : After a their persistent laudation of the pi mary as an instrument to register tl "will of tlit people , " the Rooseve managers now confess that the pi mary system as utilized in the noiul ; ation of party candidates Is a frain Ever since the colonel throw his h ; Into the ring lie lias boon howling fc primaries. He said that this was tli only way the Roosevelt strength conl bo correctly measured and that an other method of nomination woul mean "disfranchisement" of ropubl can voters. In North Dakota there was held state-wide legal primary on Tuesda ; It was just the sort of primary tin the Roosevelt managers have been s noisily demanding all along. Hut tli result of tlmt primary' made tli Roosevelt managers sick. They claii in loud ami complaining tones tli ; the democrats Voted In the republiea primaries and thus gave -the state t LnKollcjtte. Hero is the formal stat < mont Issued by John S. Bass , man ! ger of the Roosevelt campaign 1 North Dakota : "Our reports indicate that praet rally all the democrats have vote for LaKollotto , and this has run u the early returns for him In the eas orn and valley section of the stat where LaKollotto is running ahea about two to one. Our later retiiri from the western slope indicate thi country is generally for Itooseve Iwo lo one. If the democrats lui stayed out of the republican primal there is no question that Roosovc- would have won. " As a specific demonstration of tl truth of the republican contentici that the primary Is a fraud and fal uro , this confession from Roosevelt own manager on the ground Is co elusive. Wherever the primary lit boon trletl It has been conducive i dishonesty and Illegality. This is tl sort of thing that Stubbs In Knnsi has boon demanding and that Rees volt himself has zealously Inslstc upon. Hut it has worked Just as Tl Journal and Taft supporters goticn ly have said it would , only in tl North Dakota Instance LaKollette wi the beneficiary and Roosevelt los Hud Roosevelt received the dem cratlc votes as ho would have doi In Kansas and elsewhere his ma agers would have had no complal , o mako. They would have accepted ho fraudulent democratic votes grate- 'tilly , although It would have boon list as fraudulent and ns Illegal as ivore the democratic votes that were as ! In the republican primary of N'orth Dakota. No system of primary has boon de vised that can be rolled on to demonstrate - strato a true party preference. That s the reason why the real repnbll- ans of Kansas want nothing to do .vltli It. Instead of Insuring an lion- si party choice , It gives the opposi tion an opportunity to take part In ho nomination and help the weakest andldato. The Roosevelt managers uivo had a bitter dose of their own medicine. They have been loudly lemandlng primaries , and they got them In North Dakota , and the re- sull has caused consternation. In stead of the democrats voting for Uoosovelt In that state , they voted for'LaKollctto. . It makes all the dif ference In the world who gets the fraudulent votes In a primary. Had hose In North Dakota gone tt ) Roosevelt velt , there would have been great re- lolclng in Oyster Hay ami the cole nel's headquarters would liavo hulled the result as the uninufflcd voice of the people. Hut as they wont to the Colonel's opponent , the North Da kota primaries an- denounced anil repudiated , -as they should he In all cases where they are. unfair and un trustworthy , which is In about 100 per cent of the cases.
