; is little question about his being
elected. He Is a good citizen, q tax
payer ana has given good service as
chief of police of Wenatchee. w. T.
Simmons, the democratic nominee, Is
a good man, but there is little occa-
sion for republican scratching his
| ticket
j. Leigh Campbell, the republican
nominee for county clerk is too well
known in the county to need any in
PRODUCTION. He has given the coun-
| ty good service in the past as county
clerk, and one good administration
surely deserves another term. o. NJ.
Brooks, of Cashmere, is going to
draw big vote, but the republican
strength in the county will not per-
init of his election.
The two Spencers-Martin P. and
Ernest Care considered by both
party managers to have the closest
race for the offices of treasurer and
auditor, respectively. Martin Spen-
Ger has opposed to him c. A. Battles,
of the Wenatchee Furniture COM
pany; Ernest G. Spencer is opposed by
the present county auditor, John Cod
frey, man who has made a good
record and is considered as very
able, clerical man. For both Offices
there can be no legitimate reason
why there should be any detection
in the republican vote. Both men
are well known and thoroughly COM
petent They are both good clerical
men, faithful party workers and are
deserving of the full party vote.
Fred Kemp showed his popu-
larity in the county by his very COM
plimentary vote at the recent prima-
ries, and since that time has made a
very thorough canvas of the county,
and the party managers have every
confidence of his being elected tomor-
row. R. w. Starr, the democratic
nominee. feels very confident of being
elected, but Mr.. Kemp will be elect
ed along with the balance of the re-
publican ticket.
r. c. Osborn, OF Lakeside, the re-
publican nominee for county assessor,
has served several terms as deputy
assessor and thoroughly know the
routine of the Office. D. NJ Payton.
the democratic nominee, has made
no canvas, and has said that he did
not care for the Office. :. >. >.
E. c. Bowersox has made one of
the most satisfactory school superin-
! tendents ever elected to that Office in
Chelan county and will have little
; difficulty in winning out tomorrow.
Z His opponent, ]. H. Anvil, OF Entiat,
is a good teacher and will carry a
good vote on the Entiat. Inasmuch,
however, as Mr.. Bowersox is a repub-
lican and has given the county
good administration, there can be no.
reason why Mr.. Anvil should receive
more than the normal democratic
vote.
Fred NJ. Berry is the republican
nominee for county engineer and has
no opposition for that Office from the
democrats. He is a very competent
engineer. and is pledged to improve
the roads of the county as far as is
possible.
DR.. H. A. Saunders, for county cor
oner is a well-known physician of
this city and has already served one
term as county coroner. He is op-
posed by Frank E. Culp, also of this
city, but it is not expected that Mr..
Culp will reduce the republican vote
to any extent.
For county commissioners, the re-
| publicans have nominated Alex.
Pitcher in the First District, H. w.
| Otis in the Second district and c. J.
Trow in the Third. These are we'll
known business men, and are in ev
cry way competent to handle the
county business. Alex. Pitcher is
now serving the unexpired term of
w. A.. Sanders He has already had
years of experience in that Office, and
is considered a man in ever way COM
petent to discharge the duties of that
office. He has as opponent w. A.
4 Grant, a well-known citizen of We
natchee, who will carry the full par
ty, vote. :. 80.
In the second district, H. w. Otis
is the nominee, and he is opposed by
II G. B. Kinney, of Cashmere. Mr.. Otis
has served one term as county conf
missioner. He is good business
man and knows the needs Of the
county. Though Mr.. Otis has some
| opposition in Dis own district, yet it
is not considered serious. He is Coz
sidered too good man to lose from
the county services, and despite
the slight opposition from Peshastin
and Leavenworth he will be elected
by a large majority.
G. J. Trow, of Chelan, the nominee
| from the Third district, has no oppo-
: siiiol, and will be very valuable
man on the board.
e w. A. Grimshaw was the successful
candidate at the recent primaries
