WARM CONTEST
FOR DELEGATES
BOTH FACTIONS HAVE cANDI-
DATES IN EVERY DISTRICT
or COUNTY.

! the primary on August 10 elect del
egates to the county legislative con
vention on August s, is certain. There
are opposing tickets for delegates in
every district in the county and both
factions will be active from now until
the day Of the election. That the Pat
terson element in this county are de-
termined to nominate candidates for
the Legislature who will register the
will of the Little Giant on all cues
tons, is evident. Just who they pro
/ pose to nominate has not be ascer-
tanned, but it is understood that sew
eral dark" horses are being groomed.
When the primary was ordered it
was anticipated that the regular Au-
gust election would bring out a fairly
good vote in the Legislative contest,
but at this time it looks like the reg
ular election would be completely over
Swallowed and that the primary will
be the chief drawing card. The COM
ing primary will be very different from
the recent bogus one. Voters must
be registered, and they must be well
known Democrats" 1t is believed |
that under these restrictions 5000 |
votes would be a pretty full vote, |
whereas over 1900 were cast in the
Gubernatorial primary.
The Dortch or secret ballot will also
be used, and this will tend to reduce
the vote somewhat and will prevent
corruption. The delegates will be
elected from the old civil districts as
they existed prior to the redistricting
act of 1908. Each district will be en-
titled to one delegate, except the
Ninth, which will elect five, the sixth,
which will elect two, and the twelfth
which will elect two. This will make
thirty-one delegates in the convention,
sixteen being necessary to a nominal
tion
