Bob Carr is quite a prominent figure
in tho hotel lobbies, generally engaged
in earnest conversation with those who
have or are supposed to have political
influences. It Is said he has the mar.

If SO he will probably prove formid-
able candidate. 1t is certain that he is
taking great interest in the moves on
the political checker board.

John I. McGraw and Secretary Of
State ohlcy seem to have an under

McGraw may be appointed cominis-

candidate for reappointment as SEQ.
retary OF state seems certain. w. u.
Chiffon is spoken Of as possibility for
the district attorneyship and his
brother Joe is mentioned as the sue

latter's death. However, 1t is thought
that in this event Senators Faulkner
and Camden will pool their isaues and
thus make their election certain.
