VETERAN FIGHTER
wins NOMINATION
Captain B. B. Tuttle Is Named
by Republicans of Sixteenth
Assembly District

In Captain B. B. Tuttle of Davis the
republicans of the sixteenth assembly
district have a legislative candidate
ripe in experience as public servant
and a fighter who will make vigorous
winning battle to reclaim the district
which two years ago elected demo-
crat to the lower legislative house.
Tuttle, mere boy. enlisted in a Con-
necticut infantry regiment in April
1861. and took part in the first battles
of the civil war. Distinguished service
won him the shoulder straps of a cap
tain of cavalry and he served under
Generals Sherman and Custer until
1865
President Grant sent the young sol
dier to Olympia. Wash, as private sec
retary to Governor Salomon. Subse-
quently he was in charge of the railway
mail service for Oregon, Washington
Idaho, Montana and Alaska for II
years and when the Spanish-American
war broke out Tuttle was adjutant
general of Oregon. In this office he
attracted national attention by putting
q regiment fully equipped into the field
for volunteer service.
Tuttle has been engaged in farming
in Yolo county for several years. He
hasstaken an active and effective part
in the affairs of the county and enjoys
the esteem and confidence of the
people of the district. His nomination
insures a campaign of action and his
election means not alone that Yolo
county will be represented by a repub-
lican, but by one in whom his constitu-
ents and the people of the state gener-
ally will have confidence.
The withdrawal of J. I. Mcconnell
the democratic incumbent, and the
nomination of Lawrence Wilson by the
democrats makes the republicans fight
easier and the nomination of Tuttle
means the return of Yolo to the repub-
lican fold.
