GROOMING CAND|-
DATES FOR 1916

Although several of the men
mentioned as possible candidates
in the primaries to succeed Sena-
tor Henry L. Myers, democrat,
whose term expires in March,
1917, have not formally announc-
ed their candidacy, the merriest
senatorial fight since the days of
Senator Carter appears to be
looming up in the republican
ranks. Also the rivalry for the
right to represent the democratic
party in the primary promises to
develop some inside politics, for
some of the democrats have cast
their eyes on the toga held by the
senator from Hamilton, says the
Anaconda Standard.
The spice to the republican side
of the senatorial scramble has
been furnished by the enemies of
J. E. Edwards, the Rosebud coun-
ty politician, who has been much
talked of both candidate for the
republican nomination for COVER
nor and for senator. Edwards
political enemies around the state
are casting about for some re-
publican who will give the Rose
bud county candidate a hot race,
for later developments show that
Edwards prefers to make the
race for senator if the going ap-
pears good. Very recently the
friends of former Congressman
Charles N. Pray have talked with
him about making the race. Po-
litically, there is little love lost
between Edwards and Pray, and
the latter, who was congressman
at large in the Sixty-second con-
gress, can be induced to make the
race for senator if he is assured
of certain backing in the repub-
lican ranks.
Former Senator Joseph M. Dix
on, who was a senator when Pray
was a congressman, is also hos
tile to Edwards candidacy, and
men who are wise politically say
Dixon would enter the race if Ed
wards candidacy became a strong
one. The man who managed
Roosevelt's campaign has been
very quiet Of late, politically.
w. R. Allen, former lieutenant
governor, and who was put up on
the republican ticket four years
ago in the last days of the cam
paign to fill a vacancy in the race
for congress and made such a fine
run, is mentioned by friends for
the Office of governor or senator,
but he has not yet given encour.
agement to the talk.
While Governor Stewart has
not formally announced himself
as a candidate to succeed himself
it is expected that he will do sc
at the proper time, and if he does
it is expected that this will dc
away with any fight for the dem.
ocratic nomination for governor.
Friends close to Governor Stew.
art say he has rather coveted &
chance to run for the senate, but
that this will not be his goal fol
1916.
One reason for the reluctance
of certain democrats to make any
bid for the nomination is because
of the primary law, which ha:
served to intrench an officeholdel
with his party, and a fight in th'
primary is disastrous to the party
AS yet no one has come out to op
pose Senator Myers, who has an
nounced that he is a candidate t,
succeed himself. Bruce Kremer

Montana, would not be advers
to being struck by senatoria

but there may be others. A. M.
Anderson was counted upon as a
candidate until it was believed
around the state house that the
governor would be a candidate
to succeed himself, and so AL
derson is in it no more.
On the republican side there
promises to be another merry
contest on this office. William
Lindsay, former United States
marshal, is being boosted by his
friends as the man who can
unite the bull moosers and re-
publicans in the state, and Lind
say will make the race. State
Senator E. O. Selway of Beaver
head county will have his name
on the republican ballot in the
primaries next August and there
is talk now of Sheriff Henderson
of Silver Bow county and Sen
ator Williams of Powell county
being in the running. The poll
ticians are considering the East
ern Montana vote this time, as
it is in this section of the state
that the democratic candidates
fell behind and the candidate
who will be favored by the
ranchers of that section is meet
ing with favor in the eyes of the
politicians. The progressive vote
is also being reckoned with by
the state makers. In the prefer
ence campaign for United States
senator in 1912, T. j. Walsh re-
ceived %, 500 votes, or 40 per
cent Of all votes cast. H. L.
Smith, republican, received 49,
500 votes, or % per cent, while
]. M. Dixon, running as a pro-
gressive, received $4,000, or 80
per cent of the total vote, In
1914 the democrats carried 36
out of the 90 counties in Montana
for the democratic congressional
ticket, but since then five extra
counties have been added and the
eastern Montana vote, which is
largely drawn from republican
states back east, must be con-
sidered.
Lieut.. Gov. W. w. Mcdowell
is expected to announce that he
will be a candidate for renom-
ination, but he will be opposed
by several ambitious politicians.
Among these are State Senator
F. M. Abbott of Gallatin county,
who has formerly announced his
candidacy. Former State Chair
man T. M. Swindlehurst, and
David Hilger of Lewistown are
also in the limelight in the talk
about this office.
State Treasurer William c..
Rae, who will be ineligible for
reelection, will find several after
his berth when he gets ready to
retire and run for nomination as
railroad commissioner. Hugh
Wells of Custer county, Deputy
State Treasurer Thomas Hefing,
Deputy State Auditor John Cul.
lerton and Joseph Kirschwing of
Cascade county are among those
named to handle the states cash.
Attorney General Poindexter,
whose appointment is said by
politicians to have been a happy
one, will probably be a candi.

who is now in Butte conducting
a case, would not say he woulc

GOOD ORDER THE RULE
AT THE KANSAS STATE FAIR
No Gambling, No Traffic In Liquor, Nc
Rowdyism at Hutchinson.

The mana cement will place the Grove
that attends the Kansas State FaiI
against any similar numbered crowd ii
the world for good order. 1t seems al
most Incredible and still it is a fac;
that there have not been half dozeI
arrests made on the State Fair ground:
during the last fourteen years for dis
orderly conduct.
The people attend the State Fair TO
educational, inspirational and recrea
tional purposes, and it seems that eaci
and every one treats his neighbor cOur
teously and with the best Of manners
This of course is largely the result
of the police of the State Fair, whC
permit no gambling, no unchaste show!
and no traffic in liquor. Kansas PEG

New Sewer at the Stat. Fair.

The legislature appropriated $1,000
for building a sewer on the State Fail
grounds and directing toilets. This
work will be ready for use during the
State Fair. Ample toilets are placed
at each end of the grand stand, so ar
ranged as to be entered by those in thu
grand stand and others to accommodate
those on the outside. Other facilities
will be provided on different parts OF
the grounds. This is regarded as one
Of the best improvements that have
ever been made on the grounds. The
city waterworks provide any desired
quantity of water for drinking and
other purposes; but, after all, the in.
stallation of a sanitary sewer and tot
let system is one that will be most
likely appreciated by the visitors OF
the State Fair. The dates are Sept
1925.

United States Public Health Service.
The U, Public Health Service and
the various state and local boards of
health have taken adequate measures
for the abolition of that distributor of
disease germs, the common towel. Now
comes the news that the common wash
rag is even greater menace to health.
The hotels and public hostelries have
recognized this for some time and have
supplied their guests with sterilized
washeloths in Individual sealed packets
The damp ffsour" smelling washrag
still exits however In many private
bath rooms. Imperfeetly washed out
after use, frequently not wrung out at
all it is often hung over rack or radi-
ator near an open window, there to col
lect dust and dirt. Frequently the same
washrag is used by the entire family,
thus affordiug an easy means Of trans
/ ference of mouth secretions from per-
son to person. In many households each
/ Individual has his own washcloth and
/ individual towel, but these hang so
/ close to one another that there is ready
/ interchange of bacteria. : Each individ-
ual should have his own washcloth.
1t should be thoroughly washed out af-
ter use. 1t should then be wrung as
nearly dry as possible, and If possible
hung in the sun to dry. It should not
come III contact with other washcloths.
In the Investigation the U. S. Public
Health Service is conducting in regard
to the prevalence Of trachoma it has
4 been found that common towels proba-
bly, acted as Medium Of distribution
Of the germ Of disease.
