The Republican county convention
is called to meet in Florence on next
Wednesday morning. The call will be
found in another column.
|. This convention is the one which
puts up the county ticket
1t is a pretty well settled fact that
w. L. Morris will be nominated for
treasurer. These two men have serv-
ed the people well and deserve to be
held in their respective offics.
Neither has an opponent and both
will be nominated.
D. N. Cooper will probably be nom-
mated for county clerk. Lafe Combs
and w. F. Cafky who have been talked
of practically conceded that IL Mr..
Cooper wants the nomination he can
get it.
For County Commissioner it will be
either S G. Kelso or Thos. Roberts of
Florence. The commissioner must
come from the Florence end of the
county.
Matt Lines the popular railroad en-
gineer is talked of very strongly for
representative and will probably be
given the nomination
Two people have expressed a desire
to accept the nomination for superin-
tendent OF schools Geo. Colgate, who
served in that capacity one term.
would like the nomination. His ex-
cellent record is we'll known. Mrs
Minnie Merriam. South Canon, is being
urged by those who think the Republic
cans, ought to put a lady on the ticket
She has excellent qualifications and
would get lot of votes II nominated.
1t is difficult to forecast the sheriff's
place. Ed Furness and John Patter-
son of Florence. and d. G. Davis of
Coal Creek are talked of but neither
has cinch on the nomination.
Either DR.. Holmes or DR.. Graves
will probably be nominated for cor
oner.
Never have the Republicans of this
county had so good chance to elect
their entire ticket as this year. Good
men are being put up and they deserve
the hearty support of very Republican.
Chancellor Butchel is a great ia
vorite in this county. He ought to
carry Fremont county by 500. Two
years ago the candidate for governor
lost Fremont by over $50. Even then
many of the candidates for county Of
fees were saved.
Ii Chancellor Butchel carries the
county by several hundred. and most
everybody agrees that he will, every
man on the county. judicial and legis
