notes.
Frank Palomares, the Democratic
candidate for county auditor, is making
hosts OF friends throughout the county
by the genslemanly manner in which
he treats his opponents in his speeches.
He represents one of the old Spanish
families in this county, and ia a recog.
nized and respected leader OF the young
blood IN the Democratic party. He is
making Spanish speeches throughout
the oorL y in behalf OF the state and
county ticket, and not confning his
campaign to his own candidacy.
The Democratic candidate for county
recorder, A. M. Salyer, is booked as a
sure winner, as he has developed unex-
pected strength in strong Republican
stropgholds.
When E. E. Hewitt was renominated
for the Office Of county tax collector it
was predicted that he would lead the
county, and from present indications
his majority will run at least 1000 be.
yond what his most sanguine friends
looked for. Mr.. Hewitt is ore of the
old-time residents OF this county and is
respected for his sterling honesty and
business ability. His administration @
the Office OF tax collector is an OPEN
book above oriticism.
The Democratic count committee ere
in receipt OF reports lrom evary pgs-
cinct in the county end hava Prepared
challenge books that viii ce-rs 90
check to the illegal votiue vhian it 10
predicted will be attempted ~ 3 orde
OF suffers. From present indications,
based on reports from county committee
mon and other we'll informed agents,
the much advertised Republican ysilow
dog year will prove TO be myth of
gigantic proportions. Even Republican
workers report looking up of Demo-
cratic interests, and have wiped out
their estimates OF prospective msjorities
for the Republican county ticket.
Democratic meetings throughout the
county have been largely attended and
the spenkrs report that the audiences
have evidenced more than ordinary iu-
terest in the discussion of local issues
and predict an increased vote in the
country precincts.
This, the closing week OF the county
campaign, will be lively one, as meet
ings have been arranged for every night
in both city and country at which the
candidates and good local speakers will
devote their time to general discussion
of local issues which affect every tax
payer and voter in the county. A feat
ure of the county canvass has been en-
thusiasm of the Spanish, French and
Italian voters who have been deserted
by the Republican party. Not one OF
either race is represented on the Repub-
lican state or county ticket, and no
meetings have been held for their bene-
fit. In the organization of clubs they
have been ignored entirely. fact which
they will not overlook on Novembe 9th.
William B. Crisp. candidate for su.
pervisor OF the Fifth district. is making
an intelligent and effective canvass for
votes, and will be elected, bar accident.
Voters in his district should remember
that on his success depends the control
of the board OF supervisors. A change in
the political complexion of the board is
the one thing needed in the interest of
good county government for the next
four years.
E. II. Bentley. candidate for city JUS
tice, has for his opponent ID. G. Morri-
son, of she firm of Morrison & Galbreth,
whose record aa tax-title buy ers Mr..
Morrison is finding difficulty in explain.
ing. Mr. Bentley is well known at
torney in this city, and it is predicted
will poll vote that will sstcnish
even his best friends.
