It is admitted that L. NJ HOghe will be renominated for the board of su pervisors and yesterday it was the pre- ponderating opinion that the other nomination for the board would go to A Hunsaker Of Mesa. No admission of that sort however, came from the friends of either T. N. ClantOn of Buckeye or J. T. Bone of Cartwright.
 Sheriff Hayden and Treasurer Bab- bitt will be renOminated without Op- position. It is understood that T. F.. Powers will be given the nomination for probate judge. No decision has been reached among the leaders regard ing the legislative ticket. though Flu gene Brady O'Neill will almost cer- tainly be nominated for the council. Candidates mentioned for the assembly are Capt. J. w. Crenshaw, Sam F. Webb, J. C. Goodwin of Tempe, w. B.. LOunt and F. NJ. Avis.
 For the precinct tickets, Justice Johnstone and D. P. Kyle will almost certainly be renOminated by the re- publicans Among the democratic as pirants are w. w. Edwards and A. Buck. Constables Murphy and Ivy are again candidates, but their rights are disputed by a score of aspiring peace officers.

 There was much business before the council Of an important nature and still more of lesser interest in addition to the routine matters of municipal business and the payment of claims which amounted to the following sums: general fund s6,SO5.55 water works, $S.9O9.39; library, $2SO.S7.

SELECTING MATERIAL
 FOR COUNTY OFFICES
The Republican and Democratic Con- Ventions to be Held Today.

The republican and democratic coun- ty conventions for the nomination of candidates for the legislative and coun- ty offices will be held today, the form CT in O'NeiH hall and the latter, in the Olympic theater. Both will con vene this morning at ten o'clock, but the preliminary meetings will not like Iy be wildly exciting. For, while there are several contests for democratic nominations there are none of them that would probably be affected by the personnel of the preliminary organiza- tion. There are two very distinct fac tions in democratic party of this coun- ty, but neither is at present contest ing for supremacy.
 On the republican side there are no contests of any character. There is no struggle anywhere for a nomination and in the cases of most of the offices, candidates have hardly more than been suggested. It is certain that Judge Phillips will be renominated for pro- bate judge. Dr. Wilbur of Mesa has been quite extensively mentioned as q candidate for the legislative council and J. c. Reed of Wickenburg as one of the four candidates for the assem- bly.
 In the democratic ranks, the contests involve the offices of supervisor, re- corder and county school superinten- dent. The latter is beginning to as sume an acute form. While it is gen eraly believed that Superintendent Full ton will be renOminated, some of his opponents are openly working for C. of p1 gin of Cartwright. Other opponents, more diplomatic are trying to force MT. Fulton to take the nomination for probate judge. They are charging that he has become fossilized and that what the schools of the county need just now is an infusion of new blood and greater energy in direction.
 Against the fossilization theory the friends of MT. Fulton point to the steady progress of the schools under his direction, until now they are second to none in the country. Especial men ton is made of the advance which has been made in the country schools which are alleged to be far superior to schools of the same grade in the cas- tern states or in California. It is be- ing urged before the delegates that when MT. Fulton took charge of the office there were no grades fin the rural schools and hardly more than a pre- tense of grading the city schools.
 There is promise of a brisk fight for the nomination for recorder It is generally predicted by the democrats that Clay Leonard will be renOminated though the friends of c. M. Zander say that the convention will be treated to a surprise when the roll call on the vote is under way.

he had understood there was a move ment to have the maintainance of such an institution prohibited within the city limits by reason of it's offen- sive odors. He said the company's lease had expired and before he re newed it he wanted to know if he was likely to be forced to move. After discussion a motion prevailed unan- imOusly that it was the sense of the council that the business should be removed beyond the city limits.
 R. H. Greene addressed the council in the matter of bringing the residence section known as Evergreen Place within the corporate limits, saying it seems to meet with the general ap proval of the residents and will add much to the valuation of city prop erty. In the event it is done however the residents will demand a good wa ter service which is now being af forded them by MT. Greene and asso- ciates, by a private water plant val ued at about S17OO. He offered to sell the city the pipe line portion of the plant at cost, about $1,000. The pumps and other machinery the city probably would not need. The matter was referred to the committee of the whole and the city attorney.
 Street lights were ordered at Ben nett Lane and Seventh avenue, Tenth avenue and Jefferson, Third avenue between Van Buren and Bennett Lane. South First street, and at one other place on Bennett Lane.

Saratoga Chips CAnti-dyspeptic).

Most dishes requiring deep frying are denied the dyspeptic because they are usually fried in lard, and lard does not agree" The following recipe will be welcomed by those of poor digestion:
 Peel the potatoes and slice thin into cold water. Drain well, and dry in a towel. Fry q few at a time in hot Cotto- lene. Salt as you take them out, and lay them on coarse brown paper for a short time.
 The above recipe can be followed without the least fear of disagreeable after effects. The chips will be crisp and dry-not greasy, as when fried in lard. Cottolene contains no hog fat, but is made of purest vegetable oil; it is recommended by physicians generally.

icy of repression has been carried out,
as result of which speculation and
overstraining of credits in distributive
lines have been minimized. With past

in mind it is to be observed that pan

itself along precisely similar lines.
Governing these manifesto .ions more

in underlying American financial and
business conditions, the growth OF

the solidarity of industry, which all

is a sense of deep relief that the com

great crisis, and it is with feel

conservatism that the business world
looks forward to the year 1909 with
a fair degree of confidence. but with
little expectation of boom
