Democratic circles today were
stirred up over a report from Wash

make up his mind this week on the
governorship, and that a nomination
will be sent to the senate next Thurs
day.
The report, in the form of cable

declared this morning, but not even
the McCandless men would prophesy
that it meant success or failure for
their chief. On the other hand, the
Watson element is jubilant. The in

the Star Bulletins cabled advices last
Saturday, seemed to point to the
point to the nomination of Ed. Wat

SHERIFF AFTER
PEACE D|STURBERS
CROWD OF ROWDlES WHO DIS
TURs PUBLIC WORSHIP ABOUT
GLENN HAS LAW AFTER THEM.

Sheriff Garrett was given hurry
call to Glenn yesterday and upon his
arrival there he was informed that
some boys or men had been guilty OF
disturbing public worship and that
they had also done considerable dam
age to a vehicle belonging to Rev.
Whitfield. missionary who was con-
ducting a meeting there.
1t seems that whoever perpetrated
the deed resented the appearance OF the
parson and proceeded to make things
unpleasant for him. The sheriff when
he arrived there, was not long in
discerning that more was known of
the affair by the elders than they
cared to tell and he Immediately in
formed them that unless they came
across with the information that there
would be nothing doing in the way
of catching the guilty parties. Some
of the elder parties then informed
the sheriff that they were satisfied
that they knew who the guilty par
ties were, but were afraid to give
the information for fear that their
would be burned some
night This didn't satisfy Sheriff
Garrett and after a few rather pointed
remarks about such fears, succeeded
in getting what he considers suffi-
cent evidence against several parties
that warrants will be issued for at
once.
Glenn has had rather unsiory
reputation for some time along these
same lines and the good people OF
that community are anxious to rid
themselves of this element. Harness
and saddle girths are frequently cut
during meetings there and during the
campaign for county officers before
the, primary several candidates had
their harness literally cut from their
horses while they were delivering
their addresses in the school house,
but Sheriff Garrett stated that he
thought he would break that prac
tice up in the near future.
