Endorsed by the independent republic

a strong vote. For several months
there has been an undercurrent of
feeling against the republican nomi-
nee, but as to whether this sentiment
Will take an organized form is not yet
apparent. The independents urge
against Mr.. ]. S. Newcomer, the re-
publican nominee. that he was never
entitled to the office having barely at
tanned his majority when given the
plum. and that his political prefer
ment was first brought about thru a
trade. The friends of Newcomer urge
that he is one of the most competent
auditors the county ever had and is
entitled to the full republican vote
However, the county campaign prom
ises to be somewhat warm.
