LOCAL POLITICS
Candidates are Numerous and
Varied Much Interest

Local politics are all aquivver
and candidates are coming out in
the open in large numbers. This is
rather pleasing to the people of the
city who have been accustomed in
thepast few years of letting political
matters take their course. This
year there is considerable interest
being shown by the population.
The same interest is manifest in
all parts of the state where cleo
tons are being held or have been
held. The people are demanding
a change. Last fall they voiced
their desires for a change in no un-
certain words and the result was
that Woodrow Wilson became
president on March 4th. The cleo
tons of last Tuesday throughout
the state have demonstrated the
fact most forcibly that a change is
wanted.
Almost every town where GER
tain interests have held sway in
the past, went back on the old
standbys Tuesday and elected new
sets of governing bodies. The
business tickets of all towns were
elected easily and the tendency of
the time is to clean up and men
were elected who were capable of
cleaning things up in a proper
manner.

their grievances. In the melee
that followed Kallanj was shot in
the knee and sustained injuries
that may terminate in a stiff knee
or worse. 1t is said that others
were implicated but that the two in
durance were the prime movers in
the affair and fired the shots.
