Good Fight In Democratic Ranks
Promised to Control Convention

considerable discussion and the TACT
Of there being a contest on for both
long and short term county commits
sioner made it hard to even attempt
to agree on a set of delegates. 1t
looked as though some were afraid
the other fellow had something up
his sleeve and did not want to tip
their hands: others were not prepar-
cd to submit names. 1t was finally
decided to adjourn and meet again
tonight at which time it is expected
a solution Of the matter Will be
found.
Numerous little conferences were
held in different parts OF the town
last night alter the meeting by those
seeking to make combinations where
by they can control the actions OF the
county convention: and It looks as
though'there was going to be a hot
fight n the Democratic primaries to
select delegates. The night is for con
troll OF the county government and is
conferred or the county commission
erS.
No opposition has developed so far
Tor sheriff, Tom Leary having a clean
field. For district attorney Clarence
Sadlcr has no opponent up TO date,
though it is limited that John Chartz,
| present incumbent, who was elected
as an Independent. may permit his
, name to go before the Democratic
| convention.
! Judge Keith. it i, stated, will make
another try Tor justice OF the peace.
| Andrew Robert and \. H. Borde-
Wich are the candidates for short
term county commissioners and
| James Larson and Henry Woods the
long term.
No one as yet has expressed a de-
or clerk and treasurer or as a mem
Der Of the assembly. 1t is evident,
however, that there are those who
have the political bee in their bon
net and are pursuing the system OF
Watchful waiting. but they do not de-
sire to take any part in the tight for
| delegates, so that no enemies will be
made on either side.
The fght for county commissioner
is going to arOus the most interest
and that o. itself is going to draw
| out the full Democratic vote at the
! primaries.
The meeting tonight will no doubt
bring out some new phases OF the
situation and possibly some new can
didates.

nANURICl"
THE NEWEST
DISCOVERY IN CHEMISTRY

This is a recent discovery of Doctor
Pierce. who is head of the Invalids'
Hotel and Surgical Institute at Buffalo,
n. Y. Experiments at Doctor Pierce's
Hospital for several years proved that
there is 10 other eliminator of uric acid
that can be compared to it. For thosS
easily recognized symptoms OF infam-
nation as backache, scalding urine
and frequent urination, as we'll as sedi-
ment in the urine, or if uric acid in the
blood has caused rheumatism, it is
simply wonderful how surely "Anuric"
acts. The best of results are always
obtained in cases Of acute rheumatism
in the joints, in gravel and govt, and
invariably the pains and stiffness which
so frequently and persistently accom-
pany the disease rapidly disappear.
Go to your nearest drug store and
"Anuric," manufactured by DR.. Pierce,
or even write Doctor Pierce for a free
sample. Ii you suspect kidney or blad-
der trouble, send him a sample of your
water and describe symptoms. Doctor
Pierce's chemist will examine it, then
DR.. Pierce will report to you, without
fee or charge.
NOTE - French scientists affirm that
"Anuric" is thirty seven times more
active than lithia in eliminating uric
acid, and is a harmless but reliable
chemical compound that may be safely
given to children, but should be used
only by grown-ups who actually wish to
restore their kidneys to perfect health,
by conscientiously using n box-or
more in extreme cases-as "Anuric"
thanks to Doctor Pierce's achievement)
is by far the most perfect kidney and
bladder %corrector obtainable.
