PRIMARY WILL Be
OVER IN A WEEK
Some Hot Campaigning is Expected
During Closing Days Of the Dem
ocratic Primary.

One week from tonight and the big
state primary will be over. The next
few days will see some of the warm
est campaigning in the history of
politics and it is not improbable that
the tide of public sentiment will be
turned from the fayorites of today.
The campaign on the whole has
been pretty free from personalities.
In a few instances some of the candi-
dates have permitted their selfish de-
sires to get the better of them and
have used means unworthy of their
position to gain the nomination. In
nearly every instance of this kind
however, the underhand methods have
