There seems to be some confusion
relative to the offices Of attorney
general and states attorney. The
office Of states attorney is county
Office and that Of attorney general a
state. Chas. Coventry is the repub-
lican nominee and Fl. C. Lynn the
democratic. Scott Cameron is the
democratic candidate for attorney
general-not states attorney. So,
when you go to the booth see that
the two Offices are separate and dis
-tinct. Mr.. Cameron will no doubt
carry much larger vote than the
democratic normal vote as he is a
local candidate for a state office.
However. he stands no show of cleo.

There might be such offered, and

Some people have wondered why
the county auditor desired to
sting the Record on the ballots
in the spring. The reason is per-
fectly obvious. In the winter of
1913 Snyder went around peddling
gun-play talk and the Record duly
chronicled his child-like conduct.
What would be more natural than
for him to "hand us lemon" upon
the first possible occasion?

When Auditor Snyder tells fhe

Santa Rosa always had more good
people than the other kind, and
when they got together and drove
the saloons out the day of redemp-
ton arrived and the Jail population
at once commenced to diminish. The
relationtof saloons to crime was very
obvious in the case of Santa Rosa
and equally obvious now is the re-.
lation of no saloons to an empty
Jail.
