Webster City, March 15.-The clt1-
Eens' primaries in this city SATURDAY
night have by no means settled polttl-
cal questions befoN the people In this
city at the primaries an alderman1c
candidate in each of the five WARDS IN
the city was selected. The primaries
are non partisan but are participated
IN hv all under an organization known
as the "citizens' party. The smoke
Of the battle of the primaries has no

pendent candidates are announced In at
least: three wards of the city and 1t is
said that there will be opposition to the
"cttizens" ticket in every waro.
The issue upon which the independ-
ent candidates are coming out is that
OF who shall be elected city clerk. II
was generally supposed that thefe
would be no opposition to 2. M. Banks
the present incumbent, but 1T appears
that many of the nominees OF the pri-
mary Saturday night We're pledged TO
q candidate, who was not standing open
ly and avowedly before the people This
was not known until the day OF the
primaries and now that it has come
out and is known to all, there appears
to he a pretty big revolt on among the
political leaders and a large percentage
Of the voters of the city. The inde-
pertdent candidates thus far an
nounced are follows:
Ell. p. Mason, First ward.
i. f. Houck, Third ward.
c.. M. Mattice, Fifth ward.
The bolt Of those who oppose
change in the office of city clerk has
assumed such proportions that it is
believed in some we'll informed quar-
tiers that some of the candidates of the
primary in order to save their necks
will announce that they will support
Mr.. Banks again for the Office he now
holds. It is certain that this issue will
beat any candidate who chooses to op-
pose It, for Clerk Banks is popular and
has made the best clerk the city ever
had. It was not supposed by his oppo-
nents that the movement, however,
would become so great as to result in
the bringing out Of independent
candidates

The Voellser resignation comes as
the climax of strenuous factional

chief among the issues of concentra-

unfriendly attitude toward athletic
sports. Friends of the foot ball and
other high school teams united against
