ADMINISTRATION

ed Tomorrow; Primaries Re-
fleet Enthusiasm Of Party at
Advent Of Campaign.
UNITED PARTY FACES TRIUMPH
WITH a prospect OF complete vic
w tory in state and county at the
w upIl. In Npyaut har the Now,

NVTlIh prospect or complete VIC
NJ tory in state and county at the
w polls in November, the Dem
ocrats OF Mesa county will hold their
biennial assembly tomorrow after
noon at the court house and desig-
nate what will be perhaps the strong
est ticket ever placed before the
voters by any party. Facing a breach
in the ranks OF the enemy which Is
too serious to be remedied in several
years, it is freely predicted that ev-
cry county office will be filled by a
Democrat this fall.
The assembly tomorrow will prob
ably be smoothly harmonious. Unit
ing under the Wilson banner all
factions Of Democracy will join in
the. endorsement of the present ad-
ministratlon, the candidacy OF
Charles S. Thomas for senator and
Congressman Edward T. Taylor
While every opportunity will be
given for nominations of candidates
at the assembly, most of the can
didates who will go before the No
yember primaries are already an
nounced or known.
Benton Canon win have no oppo-
sition for county treasurer, and
James II. Lee will be the unanimous
nominee for county clerk. w. II. Nc
| Donald will have a free field for rep
! resentative, and Herman W Kluge.
the PaUsade war horse. VIII he des-
! ignated for the state senate by ac-
clamation.
1t is quite likely that the vote for
sheriff will be pretty evenly split
between Charles II. Wallis and Jefr
Watson, who are the announced can
didates for the office.
For county commissioner Il. E.
Chambers OF Hannah Creek and b.
n. Bancroft of Palisade have been
favorably mentioned.
Both Mrs. G. +. Hinton OF this
city, and Prof. l.. B. Stevens OF Frui-
ia have been frequently mentioned
for superintendent OF schools. but
neither is an ayowed candidate.
Nominations for John G. McKin-
ney. Frank w. Logsdon. C. P. Bliss
and r. L. Magill will probably be
made for county assessor. More can
didates will probably be named for
this office than any other before the
assembly.
The choice of DR.. A. G. Taylor for
coroner will probably be unanimous,
and Ed X. RombeTg is expected to be
unopposed for county engineer.
II is apparently a safe prediction
to-day that the 3 delegates who are
TO be sent to the state assembly will
be instructed to vote for Senator
Thomas and Congressman Taylor
for denomination.
No other issues have appeared, and
it is generally thought that the
business of the assembly will be
quickly disposed of.
The enthusiasm in the primaries
forecasts large attendance of dele
gates to the assembly and every pre-
cinct will probably be represented.
In the East Third ward the voters
had to eliminate two of l3 nominees
for delegates, and A. T. Gormley ana
C. b. Hin were dropped. The re-
mainder OF the delegation is com
posed of William Weiser. d. r.
Stone. Walter Walker. Henry r.
Rhone. Miss Merle McClintock, Mrs.
Virginia Wallace, A. j. Peck, II. f.
Vorbeck, j. b. Matthews, DR.. w T.
Adams and John L. Lowe.

been named 1t is composed OF Fred
Pettijohn, ]. o. Scarlett. E. NJ. Het-
eel. Albert Bessire and George Cor
coran The committeeman named
was f. NJ. Hetzel and Mrs. E. E. Cole
