"Rich' Nash for Commissioned

The Democrats are exceedingly for
tunate this year in having on their
ticket some of the best men in Idaho
county, men who are known for their
tn and loyalty to the county and
who throughout their residence within
the confines of Central Idaho have ex.
erted every influence in developing the
section. In this class is r. p Nash. or
Rich,' as he is known by wide cir
Gle of friends. Mr.. Nash has been pre-
vail upon by his friends to make the
race for commissioner and on last Sat
urday his nomination was filed on the
Democratic ticket. "Rich' Nash has
been IN the county for eighteen or
twenty years, has pioneered right from
the start, having been a resident of the
Sal mon river section for that period
He is an extensive stockman and
while he is thoroughly familiar with
the needs of that section in the way
OF roads, bridges, etc. he is fair enough
to give other parts of the county their
needs. A conservative man of sound
but not so conservative as
to be penny wise and pound fool
ish. RI Mr.. Nash has made success of
his own affairs and if elected can be
depended upon to give to those of the
county the same careful and business
IKE Management. Mr.. Nash has no op-
position in the primary and at the gen
eral election will command more than
his party vote.

Speaking of conditions in those dis.

is fully six weeks later than former

and supplies has been a particularly
serious drawback this year. However.
