PARTY NOMINATIONS
MISS LAB0RING MEN
Three Labor Candidates Placed onl Two
iickets---Stocker Slated by Citizens
Armstrong Renamed.

| nCndiuCu.
During the past week the three LARGE
parties have named candidates for mu-
nicipai officers. Several good men have
been named, but out of the entire lot we
fail to recognize but three candidates
for leading places on the ticket that are
members Of organized labor. They are:
OTTO THUM. candidate for clerk on
the Citizens ticket.
KATHRYN WILLIAMS candidate
for recorder on the Democratic ticket.
HAMILTON ARMSTRONG, candidate
TOR sheriff on the Democratic ticket.
There is one office that should be
given close attention at this election,
ana that is the office of sheriff. Labor
has two friends to vote for on the Demo-
cratic and Citizens tickets, Armstrong
ana Sullivan, but on the Republican
ticket there is one of labors worst enc
mics, Williams, who fought the eight
nour law for women when 1t was before
the eighteenth general assembly
Arnold Bailey and Hunter, candidates
Tor mayor on the three different tickets,
are all good men, and labor should only
discriminate against them on account of
the influences that dominate them. Ar
mold has written a fine labor PLATFORM
and it would be of great benefit to labor
II carried out, but his supporters stand
Tor closed town and this will be op-
posed by many labor organizations.
Bailey is for fewer restrictions than Ar
mold, and this viii appeal to the men,
Ders OF those organizations that are op-
posed to the Arnold restrictions: but
Bailey will lose support on account of
the influences that are said to control
the party. Hunter is good man. but
II is SAID the head of this ticket is slated
to lose.
Allison Stocker, candidate for treas
urer on the Citizens ticket, will cost the
citizens considerable support on account
of his past unfriendliness to the building
trades. He is one of the general con-
tractors that opposed the Building
Trades Council two years ago and i'm
ported strikebreakers.
Taking the three tickets as a whole
labor got but little, and there seems but
little cause for rejoicing over the sue
cess OF either one. Labor cannot get a
sufficient number of its friends on any
\ ticket to give labor any strength until
labor names the ticket itself. If you de-
sire to find labor's friends. look for the
Socialist ticket.
