COMPLETE ARRANGEMENTS
FOR REPUBLICAN PRIMARY
Republican Committeeman and
Candidates Make Final Arrange
ments for Ward Contests.
CANDIDATES ARE ACTIVE
Col. Smith and Sheriff Metzger
Both Confident Over To
Morrow'S Results.

Both candidates for the craftsmanship of
the Republican county committee, Sheriff
Robert Metzger and Col. Harry B. Smith,
devoted last evening to the final perfecting
of their respective organizations before the
virtual settlement of their rival claims at
to-day's primaries for the election of pre-
cinct committeeman.
Both candidates have well-defined and
complete organizations, with their own
candidates for committeeman, in practically
every precinct in the county. The fight for
the election of these committeeman will
practically settle the fight for the chair
manship, for when the result of to-days
primaries is known it can be easily figured
cut which of the two candidates will secure
the majority of votes from the men elected
to the county organization to-day. The
meeting of committeeman for election of
chairman Will be held at 1870 p. m. Satur-
day in the Criminal Court room.
Last evening both Sheriff Metzger and
/ Colonel Smith claimed victory in to-days
primaries and at the Saturday meeting. 4
Il am perfectly satisfied in my own mind,
/ said Mr.. MetZger, that L am going TO win
l have compact and thorough organization
| with good man for committeeman in prac-
/ tically every precinct in the county, and
/ am satisfied that will have votes to spare
| when it comes to electing the chairman. l
have chosen to carry. on my fight for the
! Craftsmanship in the party organization ra-
! Their than in the newspapers, and believe
that to-morrow's result will show that
chose the right thing"
Colonel Smith would say little last night
| except to assert that he was absolutely con-
| fldent of his election.
The primary polls will be open from to
! p. m. to-day, and large vote is expected,
because of the interest that has been aroused
| In the result by the active campaigns con-
| candidates.
