are thought 20 have good chances in q
| campaign this year, are Norman Wat
kins, who has made record for him
self in the legislatures of the past
| Clarence H. Cooke, for the lower house

several terms in the house. None OF

than he would be for the sheTiff's posi-
tion, which he lost in the last election
although nominated by a large vote il
the primary. Henry Vierra, John X
Motley and e. J. Crawford are seem
ingly strongly backed. W.. H. Craw
ford may try for the house again.
X. Fernandez, and NSam Keliin0i hav
both had experience in the Legislature
and would like to try it again. Franz
X Archer, road Overseer for Eva, /
a possibility, and w. H. McInerny
Walter r. Coombs and M. s. Deponte
have considerable strength. W. J
