With Banners Flying

It was very common predic- tion that the primary election this year would be the most hot ly contested of any so far. Ger tainly candidates for county and precinct office were working with might and main to score in Will Hams. Everything was being done which candidates and their friends thot would gain vote. Many candidates possibly all had workers distributing cards and using such powers of persua- sion as theymay have possessed to gain votes for those paying for their services In addition to these, candidates had partisans who were working no less effec- lively. A number of candidates had large banners prepared an nouncing their candidacy and the banners, if not actually fly ing, were Tapping in the breeze. Among them could be distln- guished F. s. Herr, George Herr ington, T. F. Holden and Pat Johnston whose candidacy for the office of Supervisor was thus announced: the name of C. E. Larson, candidate for represent ative and Charles C. Jones, candidate for county attorney, were displayed on banners artis- tically designed.
 Good Natured Discussion
 Small groups gathered on the streets and engaged in good natured discussion and rallery. No one felt sore, as far as could be noticed by a casual observer, and one would predict that the result of the election will be ac- cepted by all with the best of feeling. News from the Maine election was received in the morning and that gave a topic for discussion. Democrats held that there was nothing discou- raging for them in the result while republicans seemed to get quite a bit of comfort out of the early reports.
 How the Vote Grew
 The growth of the early morn ing vote would indicate that nc one meant to leave other morn ing duties unattended to before performing the duty which the franchise imposes upon eacl qualified voter. Gradually the voters drifted into the polls At noon the vote stood 68 fo the first precinct and 62 for the second precinct. The chickel dinner at the opera house helped the second precinct and at 2:2' the vote stood 105 for the frs precinct and 108 for the second precinct The next two hour; yielded 90 votes for the two pre- cincts the first precinct getting 40 and the second 50. The pol itical completion of the vote cast up to this time was quit predominently republican. 5.O o'clock showed a total of 335 the first ward having 153 ant the second ward 182. If the frs indications as to the politica composition of the vote was cor rect, the democrats were votint
