ROSTER OF
CANDIDATES
TO BE VOTED FOR AT NEXT
TUESDAYS PRIMARIES -sEV-
ERAL CONTESTS IN YUMA
CO. ARE INTERESTING VOTERS.

Tuesday, September II, is the date
held in every precinct in the state
! of Arizona. On that date, candi-
dates for precinct, county, state and
federal offices will be nominated by
the various political parties, and the
finals will be run off between the
dominant party candidates on Novem-
ber 3.
Among the state contests the chief
interest centers i'm the democratic
gubernatorial nomination between
Governor Hunt and Geo. A. Olney.
The friends of both candidates are
exerting their UTMOST to see their
favorite nominated, and from all in
dications the contest will be a close
one. However, no matter who is
nominated for governor the democrat
will be found united for the success

the primaries.
In Yuma county there are several
The race for sheriff between Mel
Greenleaf and ]. A. Donovan is prob
ably attracting the greatest interest,
while the contset for the recorders
office between James A. Hodges and
r. I. Winn is second in Importance
to the sheriff's race.
The supervisoral contest among the
democrats is also attracting no little
attention among the electorate Of
the county In this contest there are
five aspirants, as follows: Senator
j. S. Garvin of Somerton precinct; J.
H. .Shanssey of Yuma; F. E. Elliott,
B. F. Hopkins and w. w. Sturges,
all of Crane precinct
All Of the candidates for supervisor
are making a thorough canvas Of the
county except Mr.. Sturges, who has
been unable to visit the northern
portion of the county AS usual all
of the candidates for this office are
~.optimistic, but as there will be but
two nominated out of the five it ne
cessarily follows that three of them
will have little confidence in their
felloWiman the day after election.
Another contest, that the electors
are greatly interested ip it's outcome
is that of county superintendent OF
schools. Both Miss Nora Morrow and
Prof H. w. Rose are making siren
uous campaign for the nomination,
and each have numerous friends who
are working in their behalf.
County Treasurer Riley and Asses
sor A. B. Ming are both seeking nom
ination on thedemocratic ticket and
have no opposition. Mulford Winsor
of Yuma, who is running for state
senator, is also numbered among the
lucky three who have no opposition
r at the primaries.
In the legislative contest there are
three candidates for state represen-
tative from this county, and as there
are but two to select one of the num-
ber is bound to be disappointed. The
candidates are A. ]. Eddy, j. l.. Ed
wards and J. B. Flanagan. The two
former are residents of Yuma, while
the latter resides at Parker, and is
