ernor, Dan w. Jones, will be a
member Of the Pulaski county
delegation in the 1915 legislature
and indicate that Mr.. Shoffner,
Mr.. Griffin and Mr.. Riegler will
be his colleagues. While J. B.
Webster is not so far behind the
last named three, the vote from
the missing townships is so
light that there is little likeli-
hood that he will overtake any
of the leaders.

1t was impossible, owing to the
large number of candidates for

This situation, it is said, is not

been learned from experience
that with five justices hunting

to show an alarming increase,
