TICKETS GALORE

1t is understood that there are nov
about five different tickets in the
field seeking the votes that will en-
able them to FIJI the various posi-
tions connected with the municipal
government of Clarksburg. The
complete Republican ticket is pub
lished in another column.
The Prohibitionists have named
Mr.. Lloyd Garrett for mayor, and
James Fl. Moore for chief Of police.
The Square Dealers have named
Camden Sommers for mayor, and
practically indorsed the rest Of the
Republican ticket, except that. Mr..
Newt. Flowers is named for school
commissioner. The couneilmen are
also different.
The Reformers ticket is headed
by ex-senator Harmer, with JAS. H.
Moore for chief Of police.
The Colored ticket names no
mayor, but puts up A. E. Lee and
E. W. Henry for the offices of chief
Of police and clerk, respectively.
All the tickets except the Repub-
lican ticket, were put in the field by
a petition circulated for the pur-
pose. The Democrats have made no
nominations and the time now hay-
ing expired in which they could eer-
tify ticket, of course none will be
made.
