And 1t May Take Official Count to
Determine Chance for Minority
Nomination.

For members Of the legislature
from the 33rd district the democratic
nomination is in doubt with indica-
tions favoring Representative H. L.
Wheelan, although the fine vote he
received in his own county may be
ov ercome by what E. L. Werts gets
in Mercer and Henderson.
In the lower counties the democrat
ic ballots have not yet been counted,
the interest in the republican figh,
on congressman having apparently
absorbed the attention of the Judges
as well as the people.

Clark of Sherrard, Mercer county
has swamped F. E. Abbey of Biggs-

the coalition OF socialists and demo-

much to do with McCaskrin's success.

There are many local angles to the
