10 the unpracticed eye the

pretty good to a Republican, but
the registered Republican plural
lly Two years ago was much larg-
er than it is this year. vet the
Democrats carried the county on
the head of the ticket and elected
five candidates on the county tic
ket. Everything considered The
chances for political success this
year are. pretty equally divided
between the two parties.
So far as districts are concern
ed, the first two are strongly Re-
publican. The fourth and fifth dis
tricts are Democratic. while the
third is about standoff. The
second. third and fourth districts
elect commissioners this year,
Whllc the first and fifth do, not.
