CANDIDATES RUSH

BOTH TICKETS FILLED AND OVER
AN EVEN DOZEN FILE AT
THE CLOSE.
CONTESTS FOR MANY PLACES
Office of Probate Judge Proves Lode
Stone With Politicians-Contests Tor
Number of Other Offices

Saturday, the last day for the filing
of nominations for candidates to come
before the voters at the primary cleo
tion to be held September 5, brought out
the fact that candidates, while little
slow early in the game, were as numer-
GUS as flies around molasses barrel,
more than dozen filing ON the last
day.
Contests will occur in number OF in
stances but for probate judge there
seems to be dirth of gentlemen who
feel they are just about rightly quallfied
to fill this office. On the republican
ticket we find four gentlemen from as
many different sections of the county
seeking the honor of being their party 8
choice for that office and on the demo-
cratic side two who seek the nomination.
For commissioner of the third district
five men are running, three on the
republican ticket and two on the demo
cratic. And coroner finds but one re-
publican out but contrary to the usual
custom two democrats are sparing for
the place.
Both tickets are complete and we un-
derstand acceptances have been received
in every instance. There will no doubt
be considerable of vote out in spite OF
the general apathy that appears to pre-
vail this campaign.
| Following are the nominees OF the two
! parties as filed for the primary:
Democratic
Senator-N. B. Pettibone.
Representatives-W. b. Hussman and
John Quinlan.
| Sheriff.. R. Yates.
School Superitendent-J. j. Staley.

LAST DOUBT OF DEMOCRATS RE-
LIEvED BY FILING OF ALEXAN-
DER FOR GOVERNOR.
REPUBLICANS HAVE CONTEST
Every Place Except One on G. o. P
Ticket Contested While Democrats
Have But One.

Boise, Idaho, Aug. denominations
for Idahos fourth direct primary cleo
ton closed today and the two old par
ties-republican and democratic
launch their respective campaigns to
name men who shall go before the
electors at the general election. There
are complete congressional and state
tickets in nomination. All doubt as to
who would be the standard bearer of
the democratic state ticket was removed
when Ex-Governor James III. Hawley
filed the nomination of Governor Moses
Alexander, who will accept it. There
will be no other democratic guberna-
torial nominee and there will be but one
or two contests for nominations on the
balance of the ticket. With the repub-
licans an entirely different situation has
developed. There are contests for every
place except one on the congressional
and state ticket. That exception is for
lieutenant governor. On the democra-
tic ticket there is, however, contest
for this nomination, two candidates hav-
ing appeared.
The entrance of Chancey Wallace OF
Nezperce into the race for the repub'
lican nomination for secretary of state
as an opponent of George R. Barker al
the present time head of that office
created more interest here among party
leaders than any other development OF
the week within the republican party
It is known that some of the leaders
have been casting about for long time
to find a man strong enough to entel
the race for the nomination against Mr.
parLar Tho splection of Wallace is sale

FOR HOSPITAL.

At the commercial club luncheon this
week the matter of providing hospital
for Grangeville was taken up and was
endorsed by the club and a committee
headed by Doctors Slusser, Stockton
and Rains appointed to take the matter
in hand and determine the sentiment in
regard to the establishment of such an
institution It occurs to the average
man that hospital of moderate size,
well equipped and furnished would fill
a well known want with the people OF
Idaho county and there seems to be no
good reason why the same would not
prove a financial success in town as
remote as Grangeviile is from the
hospital advantages offered by the
larger cities.
