Crop Large and on the
Increase.

The Republican scribe has kept his
ears open during the past month and is
able to forecast III a measure the poit-
lcal dope sheet as it now appears to him
for Clearwater county. There remains
but eighteen days yet in which to file
nominations for the primaries of July
Both. Many papers are now in circula-
ton for early filing To begin at the
top, the word comes from Nezperce,
that the democratic leaders of Lewis
county have concluded to nominate our
Fellow townsman, and present legisla-
tor, a. +. Holmberg, for the important
position OF state senator, in the belief
no doubt, that no Lewis county demo-
erat can poll the party vote owing to
nc strenuous county seat fight now
going Ga in that county. The republi-
! cans are not SO unanimous on this i'm
portant office and A. G. johnson, the
"Old Roman" OF Nezperce, George
Farr Of Reubens, Len McGill Of Peck
have all been mentioned for this office.
As 10 the representative, the republi-
cans have mentioned r. j. Anderson
OF Weippe and William Chandler OF
Orolino, while the democrats will per-
haps nominate p. II. Blake. For sher-
Ill on the republican ticket Jack Crabb
Of Teakean, Lewis White of Ahsahka,
and John Scott Of Orofno have all been
fayorably mentioned. The democrats
will have in the race for sheriff E. A.
Bellomy Of Elk River, the present dep
uty sheriff, j. M. Bartlett of Orofino
and AL Harper Of Pierce. For treas
urer the republicans will present the
name OF w. B. Kline and the demo-
Gratis w. S. Cunningham of Gilbert.
For probate judge j. G. Bullock for the
republicans will perhaps be opposed
by Judge Hogue. For county school
superintendent Stephen Craig is an
nounced as republican with the prob
able announcement of Miss +. Maude
Mix as a possible rival on the same
/ ticket. For assessor the names OF
Samson Snyder, Ben Dixon, e. A. Pit
wood and John German have all been
mentioned OH the republican ticket,
while the democrats have probab ly
centered on the present assessor, John
Molloy. For surveyor X. B. Swadener
seems the only possibility in either
party and he will no doubt be nomin-
ated on the republican ticket and unan-
imously elected as he is efficient and
deservedly popular with all parties.
