 Putting the name of Philip Contzen in the democratic ticket as county surveyor has been the object of much comment. Phil Contzen is a straight out republican. He was not nominated in the publican ticket because he had sent in word that he positively would not accept it. Yet his name was put up by the republicans. The probabili- 1 ties are very great that Contzen will not let his name stand on the democrat l ic ticket. He is true republican, and l nothing like a nomination on the demo 1 cratic ticket can turn hIs head. He l has accepted position with General Manning in the surveyor geDeral's office, but with the district understanding that 1 he is republican, when the recommend | ation for bis appointment was made to | Washington it was with the full explan- l stion that Csntzen was @ republican, l Contzen is at Mammoth, doing l some engineering, but will be back in 8 l day or two.
