And now We come to the more
/ likely aspirants for honors.
Charley Lumley has been willing
to draw the sheriff's salary for sew
eral years and his friends say that
this year Charley will shut his eyes
and tackle the job. He has a wide
circle CT friends all over the county
and ought to make it interesting to
anybody else who might want to en-
ter the primaries. He is one of the
$4,000 original Roosevelt men in
this county. This Is proven by his
famous bet with Doc Parker which
the doctor reneged on in November.

use if he had a chance and so the
De Beque fruit grower is pretty anx-
4 ious to fling his sun bonnet in the

port in his own party can't very well
/ be doubted for he is one of those
out-sDoken fellows who make plenty
/ of friends-and some enemies-as
regular daily duty. Bill is expected
to formally announce himself this
week.
Ed Allison, so far is entirely re-
ceptiye. He can't be said to be ac-
lively candidating mainly for the
reason that he isn't quite positive
what party he ought to ioin. He'd
like awfully well to be a Republican
but that is so unDonular these stren-

There may be others. In fact.
there are others But they haven't

Mr.. Branscombe was employed byI
the commissioners and his report was
made this morning to Mayor Cher
rlngton.
The new improvements include a
complete heating plant and re-decor-
alton which will make the popular
play house one of the most pleasing
to the eye in this part of the state.
Compliance will be made with the
new theater ordinance which pro-
vides for safety measures of an elab-
orate character to prevent fire or
panic.
Receiver Hay expressed the belief
that work would commence on the
repairs within a brief time.
Mayor Cherrington stated this
morning that he was pleased with
the news conveyed in Mr.. Brans-
combe's report and believed that the
necessary repairs should be made at
once to provide complete safety to
the patrons of the building.
1T Is somewhat surprising to
learn that a building erected twen-
ty-two years ago should be so thor
oughly sound as to justify the state

an expert examination" said the

IF THE municipal ownership refer

endum succeeds--and no one
a doubts but II will-the advocates
of city-owned light and gas plant
are going to re-initiate an ordinance
providing for an investigation and
possibly final condemnation pro-
ceedings The situation, as 1t now
develops. is the most complicated
Legislative puzzle the city commits
sioners have ever faced.
Here's the situation:
Ten per cent of the people initiated
an ordinance providing for a full
program of municipal ownership.
Realizing that the city council would
not stand for the measure, and that
a special election would be called, the
sponsors for the ordinance withdrew
it before it came to a vote.
By agreement the council passed
an ordinance which provides for a
81 800 investigation of the municipal
ownership situation and that measure
was finally passed last night.
In the meantime the opponents of
municipal ownership have commenced
referendum of the investigation or
dinance. They commence today the
active circulation of the petition, and
will file before the limitation OF thir-
ty days Is up. There is apparently
no question about the plentitude of
signers for the document.
Once this is filed. this referendum
petition forces the council to either
repeal the investigation ordinance as
it stands or else submit 1t to pop
ular vote. The commissioners have
the choice of calling a special cleo
tion now to determine the matter or of
