Democratic County Contention

Nearly every section of the county was represented in the democratic convention held last Saturday afternoon in the superi- or court room in Holbrook.
 The meeting had been called by Dr. G. P. Sampson, chairman of the county central committee, for the purpose of arranging for a successful campaign this year. Dr. Sampson acted as chairman and, after a short and interesting talk, called for speeches from other members of the party present.
 Among those who responded to the chairman's s invitation were J. J. Shumway, L. w. Quinlan, 0. R. Gardner and D. F. John son, state examiner. Every speaker expressed himself as being sanguine of victory for the party in the November election.
 After the speechmaking the chairman called for announce ments of candidates for the vari- ous county offices. Those who answered to this call were Miss Dee M. Moss, candidate for re- corder; J. w. Richards, candi- date for treasurer; Joseph Peter son. candidate for superintendent of schools; Joseph F. Woods, candidate for sheriff; Attorneys Thorwald Larson and G. c. Ba- zelI, candidates for county attor- ney; Fay I. Gardner, candidate for assessor; L. W. Quinlan, candidate for state senator.
 There then remained three vacancies on the ticket-two supervisors and one member of the lower house of the state assembly. John w. Freeman was suggested as a suitable can didate for supervisor. and after, considerable persuasion by his friends he agreed to make the race. James Donohoe vas sug- gested as the other candidate for supervisor, but as he was not present, his wishes Tn the matter could not be determined. It is probable that when Mr. Donohoe returns from California he will agree to make the race. O. D. Flake was suggested for the assembly and we are informed that he will become candidate.
 Altogether, the meeting was harmonious one. and while it's work was only advisory, the in- dorsement given the various can didates will prove of great bene- fit to them. All the candidates are well equipped for the offices to which they aspire; several are serving in the offices to which they seek reelection. The records of these are good, and the voters can make no mis- take in retaining them as public 1 servants. In fact, the entire ticket is worthy the support of the voters.
