action of the convention in not nOmi-
mating candidates for all the county

calling new convention.

publican camp last evening will be of
but small moment when compared with
the contest of this evening. There is a
superiority of candidates, and they
spring mp on every hand with the birth
of each hour. The main interest in the
outcome of this evenings primaries
however, centerS in the contest for the
nominations for register of deeds and
sheriff. Among those prominently men,
toned are MeSsrS. MOelleT and Bean for
sheriff, and Messrs. RIFT and Bell for
register.
Both County Auditor Kahn and
County Attorney j. j. Egan will prOba-
bly, be Endorsed by the Republicans, as
their special qualifications have driven
off all serious opposition. The candi-
dates for the other offices are like
unto the hairs of the head and it is i'm
possible TO tell where the lightning will
strike.
The primaries this evening will be
for the nomination of delegates to the
county convention, which will re-elect
county officers.
