FIGHT is ON SHARP.
Principal Contest In Convention Today
VIII Be Over Shrlevsisy,

The principal contest In today's Repub-
lican convention is certain 10 be for the
nomina ton for sheriff. Reports current
last night were that Sharp was losing
ground and that one or another OF his
opponents Was sure TO be named. The
deputy sheriIs for the past week have
been devotihg much more time 70 politics
than TO their duties as officers, and most
of them have been laboring hard and
earnestly 10 save their chief.
The other candidates appear 10 be con-
ndent that Sharp Is beaten, and each is
keeping his forces well in hand Many
OF the Sharp supporters have been de-
voting their time 10 trying TO kill off
Claude Y. Russell. who is one Of Sharp's
leading opponents, They are repeatedly
declaring that Russell is ineligible TO the
office OF sheriff inasmuch as he voted for
bill permitting the county commission
ers 10 Increase the shoriff's salary. II
rs remarkable that Sharp and his deputies
should take this ground. for the bill TO
which reference Is made was introduced
at the personal request or Sheriff Sharp.
and for IL he and his deputies conducted
