DUN a few weeks ago. The active
canvass of candidates will not begin
until January /, but the "ski, mish >
business has already commenced and
especially in the country districts
has politics become the chief topic of
discussion. There seems to be a gen.
eral feeling that the Republican pri-
mary will be set earlier this time than
ever before The candidates and peo-
pie in general favor the idea. 1t will
not be later, it is thought. than the
last Monday in February and per-
haps a week or two sooner than that
The reorganization of the WAYNE
county central committee will take
place early in January and at this
time it will be decided when the
county primary will be held When
the call is made by the state Repub-
lican chairman for the organiz alton
of the county committees there will
be township and ward meetings to
select committeeman and soon there
