CANDIDATES FILE
AS INDEPENDENTS
Two Republicans and One Demo-
crat in County

Another step was taken in the
Richards primary law Friday, with
the passing of time limit for filing
petitions of independent candidates.
w. +. Burke filed his petition as an
independent republican for county
register of deeds, and Nj. A. Shuster
filed as a republican independent for
county treasurer. =. j. Weir filed
As an Independent democrat for
county sheriff.
The majority republican county
ticket is practically a complete tick
ct, with the exception Of States At.
tornev, for which position j. II. Cole
dill not qualify.
The democratic county ticket is
nearly complete except no candi
date for Auditor or Judge.
The minority republican county
ticket has three candidates, repre-
sentative, treasurer and sheriff.
Others endorsed were also on the
majority.
This leaves Auditor Lewis and
Judge Anderson, on the republican
majority ticket, and States Attorney
S. V. Christ on the democratic tick
ct, with no opposition at the fall
election.
District candidates for county
commissioners on all tickets qualified
Several of the minor candidates, like
Justices and c~onstables, were evil
IDENTITY lot eager for the honor, or
did not know requirements of our
wonderful primary, as they failed
t, qualify
There are enough candidates con
testing, perhaps. to bring out fair
vote at the March primaries.
The prediction is made by those
interested that the preliminary
campaign will be a quiet one, as pri-
mary candidates do not care to
waste much time or energy prior to
the regular election campaigns
which will begin Immediately after
the primaries, and continue about
eight months. AS the other four
months were devoted to preIiminar-
les, it will thus require a year for a
candidate to win or lose a county of

very moderately support a family.
