Many old FACES
WILL APPEAR IN
THE LEGISLATURE
List of the Nominees of Re-
publicans and Democrats
in All Counties of the
State Given.

Nominees for the next legislature Tor
both the senate and house of repre-
sentatives are now before the electors
of Idaho in each of the 81 counties in
the state. A careful check of the pri-
mary election results shows that there
are more senators running for re-elec-
ton this year than ever before in the
history of the state and that other can
didates for the upper house have had
legislative experience through service
in the house of representatives. This
is taken to indicate by those familiar
with the Idaho legislatures and legis-
lators that in the event Of the election
~ those who have seen service in
either house, the new legislature prom
Uses to be exceptionally strong. 1t Is
generally recognized that experience In
the legislature is n valuable asset for
member of either house and places
such a member in a position to secure
results providing their respective rec
ords can bear inspection and pass mus
ter.
In but one county in the state mas a
three-cornered fight developed That
county Is Nez Perez, where three leg
fslative tickets are in the field, the
Progressives having nominated Sena-
tor Bundy to succeed himself In the
senate and named compromise dele
cation for the house Of representatives.
In Twin Falls county the anti-county
divisionists were partly successful IN
defeating the division candidates. From
the Bull end Of that county hard
fight is being made for county division.
Fred Nihart survived the fight as a
division advocate and he will probably
be elected to the house, where he is
expected to champion a division meas
ure.
In Boundary county Bartlett Sinclair.
a candidate for state senator, was de
feated for the nomination, a fact his
friends here will regret to learn. There
are many former representatives
standing for detection to the house,
two of whom are in the Ada county
delegation. Blaine, Bonner Kootenai,
Idaho, Fremont and Twin Falls coun-
ties will have lively elections over
county division delegations to the leg
islature.
