FOR SHERIFF OF BURLEIGH COUNTY To the Voters of Burleigh County: Your generous support at the June Primaries has nominated me for the office of Sheriff to be voted on at the General Election to be held on November 4th. As I will not be able to visit personally all of the voters in the county, I trust that the support and confidence you expressed by your vote at the Primary will be shown again at the coming election. J. L. KELLEY Pol. Adv. Appreciation I wish to thank the thousands of voters who supported me in the June primary and respectfully dsk for their continued support at the coming election, November 4. If reelected I promise to continue my careful and economical management of the office of coroner, at the least possible expense to all taxpayers and citizens of Burleigh county. I sincerely ask for your support. E. J. GOBEL, Coroner (Pol. Adv.) Fellow Burleigh County It is impossible for me to do the work for which you are paying me and at the same time be out calling on the people and asking for their votes. Therefore, 1 am attending to the duties of the office and leaving the matter of your votes to your own good judgment. The county judge is one of the officers most Im portant to the citizen. The county court distributes property after its owner is dead and lack of knowledge on the part of the county judge may cause injustice to the owner's heirs. Failure to do everything just as the law requires is almost certain to cause trouble and ex pense later on if land title is involved. Hence the county judge should be a man with training in the law and long experience in probate practice. 1 have both and relying on them and on my work of years as the judge of your county court I am confidently expecting you to reelect me as you have done before. Respectfully submitted, I. ('. DAVIES, County Judge ♦Pol Adv » GIANT AIRPLANE TO START TRIP SUNDAY DO-X Is Groomed for First Lap of Transocean Flight to New York Altenrhein, Switzerland. Nov. I.

Be Fair to Your Institutions My reason for wishing to be coroner is that 1 may be allowed to furnish some of the merchandise that is required in the coroner’s work. The present incumbent has held the coroner’s office for the past ten years, dur ing which time I have had but three cases sent to me by the coroner. The present incumbent is not a real estate taxpayer, nor has he any financial in terest in any business. My fine funeral home is an additional reason for your favorable consideration of my candidacy. W. E. PERRY Candidate for Coroner of Burleigh County Your vote and support at the polls w ill be greatly appreciated. —Political Advertisement A CALL To Independent Voters of The lack of interest at present shown in the election of November 4th, demands that the attention of Independents over the state be called to the necessity of each and all of them going to the polls on Tuesday and voting for the ticket headed by Governor Shafer; and especially to the vital necessity of their voting for all candi dates for the house and senate nominated in June, and who now have League op position. Jn all legislative districts where there is a contest the largest possible vote must be given to Independent candidates if we are to have a house and senate which will cooperate and work with Governor Shafer for the welfare of the state, rather than one controlled by those who will endeavor in every way to deteat every proposal of the governor and of the Independent platform, however much the measures proposed would make' fdr efficiency and economy in government and reduction in taxes. The Four On Tuesday you will receive a separate ballot for an amendment to the constitu tion to provide for a four year term for state and county qfficials. In the June pri mary North Dakota voters amended our constitution to increase the term of office of supreme and district court judges, and this amendment is a further progressive step to more efficient public service and economy in state and county government. In July last some 25,000 North Dakota voters petitioned for this change to the four year term, such change having been recommended in the state platforms ot 1928 and 1930 and by Governor Shafer in his 1929 message to the legislature. Over twenty states have adopted the four year term and this increased term has in every such state resulted in a better class of public officials, more efficient public service, and a saving in public expense. When this state adopted the two year term we held only one election every two years, now we have the primary and general election, and at present county and state officials must, every two years, devote their time from May until November largely in campaigning for election, necessarily to the great detriment of public service. While electing state and county officials to four year terms will not do away with all elections on the off two years, as congressmen and certain officials having a constitutional term of office of more than four years must be elected each tw-o vears; such change will materially reduce election expense and will enable public of ficials to devote a greater share of their* time to public service, rather than to polit ical work. This necessity of electing congressmen, etc., at elections other than every four years prevails, of course, in all states having the four year term, and has not proven any argument against this longer term in these states. In no publicity put out against the four year term is it claimed that such longer term has not, where adopted, brought the results above stated; this is coiveded. Those politicians opposing the change at this time, in effect, admit that were they in power now they would advocate the change.
