comes from section of the county
which has not had representation
on the ticket for several years, leaC
some to believe that he is going to
make strong run for the nomina
tion.
The republicans have two, candi
dates for assessor-Dan Price oi
Paris and James Dunn of George.
town. Both are capable men fol
the office. Mr.. Dunn was in the
race for that office two years ago,
but fell little short of the nomina.
ton. The fact that the assessor.
ship has gone TO the west side OF
valley for the past eight years OF
more, leads good many republi-
cans to believe it Is time for ga
change Georgetown has moi
been represented on the republican
ticket for several years and this
reason, in connection with the one
above above stated, should make
Mr.. Dunn strong candidate.
The democratic candidates for as.
season are Asa Athay of Paris and
George J. Haddock of Marlboro.
For prosecuting attorney, the re-
publican voters will have to choose
between VIM. Higgins, the present
incumbent, Jesse Rich of Paris, who
will graduate from law school in
the east next month, and De- Meade
Austin, who held the office one
term. Neither of these men are
making any particular fight for the
nomination, but Gays" many
friends throughout the county
would be mighty glad to see him
land the plum. His ability TO dis
charge the duties of the office are
not questioned by anyone, and we
do not believe that he can be accus-
ed of having dealt unjustly with
anyone or having shown any favor
itism during his term as prosecut-
ing attorney.
Thos. l.. Glenn, on the democra-
tic ticket, has no opposition for
prosecuting attorney.
Alfred A. Hart, the present eff
cient superintendent of schools,
will be re-nominated without op.
/ position. His opponent in the
November election will be Seymour
B. Spencer of Paris.
John II. Grimmett, the present
incumbent, and Joseph DEMO, who
came "within an ace" of being nom
mated two years ago, are the aspir'
ants for the probate judgeship. The
race between these will no doubi
be close. Both are we'll qualified
for the Office and whichever one
wins, the people can rest assured
of having competent man to look
after probate matters for the ensu
ing two years.
! Edward J. Haddoek of Bloom
ington, will make the race for pro
bate Judge on the democratic ticket
| j. Henry Stocker, the presen
efficient county treasurer, is cand
idate for denomination. His oppo
nents are VIM. B. Hoge and Mrs
Emma Holmes, both of Paris. Th
hitter served as deputy auditor fo
flour years and made most capabl
officer. Mr.. Hoge is an efficien
accountant and would make a goo,
officer. II is impossible to sa
which of these three will win mex

deserving official second term
Mr.. Stocker will copper the plum
