Imagining there are grapes to be
plucked, Republican pie-absorbers are
growing busy They are dear peo'
pllng' with much vlgor Thus far
Democrats are quiescent, although
there will be good supply OF good
candidates in the field
Among Democrats who will go for
county office are:
John Favor OF Perth, for commits
sloner; Felix Adler, Guthrie. FOR COM
missioner; Bob Myers of Guthrie for
sheriff. Walt Mathews of Mulhall for
comfy attorney; Frank Dolcater
Guthrie township, for county clerk;
Judge Clayton OF Britton, for county
Judge; r. s. Jernigan Of Antelope, for
register of deeds; Bart Murphy ol
Marshall for sheriff; Earl Keyes for
clerk superior court; Joel Sandlin for
superior Judge; Robt. Hancock OF
Cashion for register Of deeds.
Scraps Among Reps.
The Republicans are already scrap
ping vigorously. County candidates
claim Guthrie Republicans are trying
TO swipe all the fat offices. and are
lining up. G. r. Young of Bear
Creek township Is being touted for
register OF deeds against the field.
The machine and the colored element
fayors Young as against Mexican
Mckinley and Anderson. The two
former viii likely withdraw before
the primaries are held.
Walter Warren thus far has a clear
field for the superior clerkship nom
nation, but countryman Is likely
to be switched on to oppose him. War
ren. however, Is nifty campaIgner
The fight for sheriff will grow SC
warm between Mitchell and Mahoney
both being peace officers now, that
G. H. Anderson may be put In as q
compromise, taken off the register
race and branded OK by the Norris
following.
Joe Norris is away, but he is busy
This accounts for Chas. Olson getting
in the race against Fred Morgan. but
1t will do him no good. Judge Law
renee, being i'll. will be taken out OF
the superior jockeylng and Adams
Modified by a try for the superior
court nomination. The booteggel
will exercise big pull in the Repub
lican primaries.
Barefoot John Nelson says every
thing will be lovely II somebody
doesn't squawk. John Golobie, fol-
congress, is plunglng on, but the Nc
Guire machine seems TO have things
well In hand, according to Charley
Renfro.
O. l.. Brooks Is rather submerged
but he has q strong line on the col
ored vote and proposes to throw i
TO country candidates. Brooks is {
strong Golobie man. Bert Hughes
may yet get into the superior Judge
ship race, but Just now he is anxious
20 see Mcclure combed The figh
FOR county treasurer will be interest
ing when the program is fixed up
Mulhall banks are fighting and th,
matter of county funds will ente
into matters. Ed Overholzer will no
be candidate for commissione
again.
All Guthrie Republican candidate:
| except Strang, are ON the anxiou
seat, since the county organizatio
Is growing stronger daily and In th
primaries may beat out every Gutt
rie candidate. The day of the col
ventlon has passed; no more will Gu
and dried seances obtain. Ever
candidate must trust to the box d
ballot. In years past county Repul
licans have been forced to swallow 9
the hands OF packed convention
whatever Guthrie Republicans offe
ed. This year the honest yeoma
gets revenge at the primary box.
