Life building. The accounts Of the COM
mittee in the last campaign were audited

be the most advisable time for holding
the county convention. They expect to
hold the convention in the latter part of
September.
Peter Metzdorf, who has been talked of
for the nomination of county treasurer
on the Democratic ticket will probably
be given the nomination for county audi
tor, as there seems to be a feeling among
the Democrats that the county treasurer
nomination should go to a Scandinavian
from the First ward Mr. Metzdorf is
very popular and lives in the Eighth
ward.
Ed Peterson, of the First ward, is be-
ing talked of as a likely candidate for
the county treasurer nomination on the
Democratic ticket. Mr.. Peterson is en-
ployed in the state labor department and
is. prominent among the Scandinavian
of the city.
j. B. Olivier IS understood to be looking
with anxious eyes upon the Democra tic
nomination for judge of probate Mr..
Olivier has been judge Of probate before
and would undoubtedly make a good can
didate.
Anton Miesen and William Simons are
both looking for the Democratic nominal
ton for sheriff. However, the race for
this nomina ton seems to be between Ed
L. Murphy and Peter Van Hoven, al
though n. F. Sigers, of the Fourth ward,
may have look in at the nomination.
Charles Mcdonald, of the Sixth ward
Is candidate for register of deeds on the
Democratic ticket. There seems to be
feeling that the Sixth ward should have
something, and Mr.. Mcdonald is said to
be strong man.
A wire-puIling combination has been
discovered in the Republican ranks.
The combination is certainly "corker''
and might be framed if it did not have to
vention. The slate of this so-called com
bination is as follows: County attorney,
f. w. Zollman; sheriff, Harry Hardicl;
register of deed, John II. Schultze, and
w. A. Washburne for abstract clerk.
Paul Guehl will not take very we'll to
this combine and will work a good deal
harder to land the nomination. He is I'M
doubtedly a strong candidate and IS also
a shrcWd politician.
Some of the Republicans in the Sixth
ward are beginning to wonder what they
are going to get out of the "jack pot
and are talking some of holding a mass
meeting of the Republicans Of the ward
to see that they get what is coming to
them. At the present there is at least
one candidate for every office on the tick
ct and two or three for some of them
Phil Justus is saving away and seems
to have "hunch" that he is going to
land the Republican nomination for
sheriff
Charles J. Horst Col. Ed Milham
Charles Richow and NJ. N. Goss seem 70
be left in the cold when 1t comes to
make fight for the Republican nomina-
ton. for sheriff. They are, however. sat
1slfed with little things and are making
slow but sure progress in their search
for delegates who will support them.
For the nomination of register of deeds
ON the Republican ticket there are a
number of candidates who seem to be
puinng about even. Among them are P.
j. Blgue, NJ. j. Bell, Sam Kellerman. S.
j. Plcha and John H. Schultze. They are
all good feilows, but if a good Democrat
IS nominated ne will not have much trou-
