brings up several weird and strange
conditions. For instance, Supervisor
Archer this morning stated that if he
failed to land the nomination for SUI
pervisor he would run independent. He
expressed himself as confident of
election.
Archer and Achi met in the latter's
office this morning and held a lengthy
pow-wow over the political situation
os far as it concerns the supervisors.
Achi opened the talk with the fol-
( lowing viii you run for supervisor
from Eva district Independent if you
are defeated in the primaries?"
yes, I will" stated Mr. Archer.
"Then you are not a good Repub-
lican?' continued Mr.. Achi.
Il am a Republican" replied Archer.
but the people of my district want
the best man as supervisor and SO
what am to do?"
80 you consider yourself the best
man?' drily remarked the Senator.
Archer heaved a sigh, smiled and
rolled a fresh cigarette
Come to think of it, Archer. you are
a good man." continued the Senator
You have obtained $25OO a month for
Eva district when the Territory only
used to expend $3.50 a year. You have
| built good roads and have not wasted
the money.
! Then Mr.. Archer launched into a
! long description Of the work that har
! been accomplished in his district His
| "reminiscences were interrupted by the
| following abrupt question from the
| Senator:
'Why did you vote to increase the
appropriation of the Police Depart
ment from $1,000 to $4,000 a month";"
well, the committee wanted more
police officers. All of the districts re-
ceived more police officers and so
asked for one for mine. L am looking
out for Eva"
80 if you fail to land the nominal
ton you will run independent, will
your"
Eyes, WILL" was the reply for a
second time.
Achi was asked if he would run in
dependently for supervisor at-large.
He replied, mo, will not, for I am
a Republican, first, last and all the
time. The Democratic leaders obout
town have offered to support me for
the position if I will run independent,
but 1 will not. The Home Rulers have
made me a similar proposition. But I
will not listen to them because l be-
lieve that the Republican party Is the
only one that will ever do the country
any good"
Several of the prominent Democrats
about town were asked in regard to
the statement of Mr. Achi and they
all displayed a wonderful amount of
ignorance concerning the affair
Another fight in the Republican
ranks at present that is attracting con-
3 siderable attention is the fight fol
nomination as County Attorney. Since
Eddie Douthitt decided not to run
there has been n number of people af'
ter the job Frank Andrade is makins
the most strenuous fight for the nom
nation. Ella Long is also said to have
his eye on the plum as well as Johr
w. Cathcart.
If Frank Andrade is nominated ant
i the Democrats put up strong man, il
e is thought that Frank will have t.
D fight hard for the election. The Por'
= tuguese are some of them sore at hin
on account of the stand he took or
the Robinson question, and it is saiC
that they will knife him should he run
The fight for the nomination and thu

Wade Warren Thayer is mentioned

he will make a good fight for the place
