Dr. NJ P Skeen defeated Albert Blake

ton as delegate to the constitutional
convention TO be selected at the Eddy
county Democratic primaries August 20.
The Artesia Democrats are consider
ably worked up over the fact that

nomination and fear that if they both
stay in the-race they viii be both nom
mated and the Artesia candidate will be
defeated.
To c. R. Brice and Maj. Bujac who
visited Artesia, the friends of Dr.. SJkeen
insisted that Carlsbad should decide be-
fore the primary which candidate they
wanted in order that the Artesia candf-
GATE should have a show. 1t is prob
able that Carlsbad will have a preIim-

there will be a hard and bitter
fight made for the control of the body.

Judge Storey is of the opinion that
the convention will be one of the larg-
est in point of attendance that the
state has ever seen. He believes that
nearly two-thirds of the elected dele
gates will be present, having received
advices that there will be large crowds
from San Antonio, Dallas, Fo"t Worth,

head Of the Democratic state executive
committee. the pros have not yet init

only name being mentioned in connec-
ton with their selection is that of
Sterling P. Strong, of Dallas, former
head of the anti-seloon league in
Texas. Owing to the fact that he sup
ported johnson il may be impossible
for the pros to agree upon him
The indications are that no slate will
be agreed upon until the pros reach
