AL Roberts, candidate for the Re-

in town today; but too busy, he said,
to bother with politics. Mr. Roberts
said he had not sought the filing of his
nomination, and that if the people
want him to be nominated for the Of
flee they will attend to that them
selves, so he is making no primary
campaign. Mr.. Roberts was elected
county commissioner 26 years ago,
and when he came up for reelection
in 1892, one Of the Moscow saloon
keepers (there were many them got
out and worked for him voluntarily.
The barkeep said Roberts had never
taken a drink, so far as he knew, and
he wanted to see sober men in office.

says there is every indication that
Herman Taylor will receive the re-

Mystery in Opposition

Friends of former Adjutant General
l.. V. Patch of Payette are mystified
over the eleventh-hour nomination of
B. M. Holt of Caldwell for lieutenant
governor. Patch is on the Mexican
border where he went with the troops
as a captain, leaving his candidacy
in the hands of his friends The fact
that he responded to the call of duty
was hailed with a feeling that the Pay
cite man would have no opposition in
the primaries. Holt and Patch are
both from Canyon county and there
was much surprise when it was found
an opponent had appeared from his
home county. No one has suggested
why Holt should have entered the race
and he has made no statement Holt
is general manager of the Caldwell
Milling e Elevator company, an aux
liary of the Colorado Milling & Elev-
ator company.
