While the News has not one word to
say against any of the candidates for
District Attorney on the various tickets
in the field, we feel called upon to refer
fayorably to the claims of James R. Du-
puy, the Democratic candidate. He is
the present incumbent, and during his
term Of office has attracted much favora-
the attention from all parties to his hoi-
est and energetic administration. We
prophesy his election. His fearless at
titude in the criminal proceedings that
have from time to time come before him,
proclaims him to be the safer OF the two
candidates whose prospects of election
are best. He is known quantity, and
thinking voters will scarcely desert him
for wild bird in the bush.-[La Verne
