Checkmated in both the republican
and democratic parties by get togeth-

new candidate has been picked n
that he will be launched this week un-

every precaution to prevent the con-

The concentration Of the anti-ma-

likely to be Endorsed for governor in
the democratic state conference, n

swing democratic votes in the republi-
can primaries this year to vote for
Eberhart, n the only hope left for
the brewers organization to divide the
anti-machine votes.
Now that the anti-machine republi-
cans in conference have succeeded in
united action, any new candidate who

being a stool pigeon" for Eberhart,
and the machine hopes to get away
from this blight on a new candidate by
bringing out a man who make pre-
tensions to being a reformer, who will
