Distribution of Candidates

The Calexico Chronicle speaks thus of the dstribu
ton Of candidates for the several county Offices
If the candidates to claim their original places
OF residence the appOrtionment would be follows FL
Centro, 10 Imperial, 8; Hotvlle A. Brawley 3; Caex-
leo, 3, and INLAND, ~
But there is feature of this that the Chronicle ap
arenty overlooks: So far the candidates from the
other towns than Imperial are concerned they have
tered the field individually and fighting their bat
tes but in the of the Imperial ticket conferences
held in which both Republicans and Democrats par
tcipaed with the avowed purpose of giving to Imperial
dominance IN county government, and so far they
could find candidates in the field could induce
enter the fight complete ticket made up of resi-
dents of Imperial who are bound to Imperial by
business ties with the purpose OF centeng that ticket
the entire strength Of the town. regardless of politics.
There have been various onjectlres why this
done. The movement started by De Rackin the
rial who hold that boss in contempt BY it is thought
Imperial seeks to apply to county government the loose
moral ideas it has applied to city government
Others see IN the active promotion OF the project the
handwork of the who have been fighting the rrga
tion district and believe the object is to set of
county officials anagonisc to the district Should such
set of officials be elected they might not be able to pre-
vent the consummaton of the district but there many
ways in which they could obsct the districts work and
the town of Imperial has thus far shown disposition to
do this in every way possible.
But, whatever the motive may be- whether to pro-
mote booze impede the district as move to concen
trate the vote of the town ticket composed wholly
partly of Imperial it is naturally being resented in
every other part of the county, for it is alike attack
the candidates from Brawey Hovile, CaleXico and
Ell Centro and represents sectional antagonism which
has place in county affairs and should have been
dropped long before this.
