in the lead though the multitude of candi-
dates made it impossible to locate favorites.
Ida May Davis has some of the leading
ing in her interest Mrs. Davidson of Peru,

thing to be settled will be whether the
Librarian shall be a man or woman. but
the representatives say that the appointee
will have to win by reason of merit and not
by favor. There was some talk of placing
the selection of a Librarian in the hands
of the State Board of Education, but it was

VIII Make His Son n Page.

Senator Baker has a little difficulty on
his hands over a piece of patronage in
which he appears, it is charged, as
nepotist. He came to the city having the
candidacy of a newspaper man of Gas City
for enrolling clerk in charge, and by
courtesy of the Senate could have made his
friend successful in the pursuit of the posi-
ton. But he found he could not secure the
appointment for the newspaper man and
at the same time have his son made page.
He did not hesitate to abandon the cause Of
the friend in favor of the lad, and hence the
disappointment of some of the Grant county
leaders who wanted the newspaper man,
whose party support, they say, is more de-
serving than the favor to the boy to be
successful. The matter of appointment OF
pages is figuring in the support of certain
Senators and Representatives, and each
case has the nepotistic flavor.
