eat candidate by far who will appear
ON the republican ticket. 1t Is prac-
tically certain that he will be nomi-
mated by the insurgents, so the

The republicans we're kind to the
city of Greeley. They modestly Sc
lected candidates for senator, repre-
sentative, coroner, sheriff. treasurer,
county Judge, superintendent OF
schools, county clerk, surveyor and
justices Of the peace from this city.
Only two offices were overlooked by
candidates from Greeley. This may
be due to the fact that most of the
stand pat republicans are in Greeley
and outside of the city nearly all
are progressive and expect to put up
their own ticket.
