Webster City, Feb. 3.-~1ndications
are that in the primaries this coming
spring, a democratic coutny ticket will
be placed in the feld-a thing that
has not happened in Hamilton county
for years.
Despite the fact that the democrats
have not had a ticket in the field here
for years, they have always maintained
q county organization. D. Fl. Bauman
is secretary Of the democratic county
central committee. Mr.. Bauman has
been busy this week interviewing
prominent members of the party and it
seems quite likely that q ticket-or at
least a partial ticket-wiIl be put in the
field. A feeling seems to be prevalent
among the democrats that the party
ought by all means this year to get out
as large a vote as possible and the best
way to do it seems to be to put a ticket
In the field.

announcement that he will not be a
.candidate. at all, from my work in the
state the past few months n espe-
cially the work I have aiken UP with
the commercial clubs, that I owe 1t
a duty to the public to continue in
the work I have been doing, and to
contribute my share toward making
Iowa a state where good health
abounds. I am fully convinced, as /
have stated hundreds of times, that
from a purely economic point of view,
there is no activity Of the state more
important than this. I have been al
most persuaded that I might be OF
great value in this work as lieutenant
governor and president Of h senate,
and that is a consideration quite as
much as the honor of the position; but
I can not doubt thai my line of duty
runs along the work Which l have been
building up here and in which I have
felt such deep interest"
The announcement by DR.. Kepford
came as a surprise to his friends, for
tho he had not become a candidate
for lieutenant governor. it was felt he
would surely get into the race. This
leaves Representative Harding, Of
Woodbury., and Senator c.. H. Van

it will be a square contest between
the two.
