Senator Thomas F. Lane yesterday
afternoon was nominated by the unan1-
nous vote of the Democratic County
Central Committee as the Democratic
candidate for prosecuting attorney.
His opponent in the election is J. Hen
ry Caruthers, who is seeking re-elec-
ton.
With the exception of S. A. Welsh of
Liberty township, the meeting of the
Democratic Committee was attended
by every member and all but two va
cancies on the county ticket were filled
by the committee.
The vacancy in the position as can
didate for Judge of the County Court
in the second district will be filled by
the Executive Committee of the Coun-
ty Committee, as well as the place
on the ticket for treasurer.
The Executive Committee is COM
prised of Chairman c. C. Oliver, Sec
rotary Ben Vineyard and DR.. n. F.
Chostner of Dutchtown. Three names
have been suggested in filling the va
cancy for treasurer and Secretary Vim

will be selected within few days.
One of the men considered for the
place was w. F. Schade, but he an
nourced, Vineyard said, that he will not
enter the race and accept a position on
the ticket. Efforts will be made to
have a Cape township man placed on
the ticket.
The Democratic campaign in this
county will virtually be launched in
earnest tomorrow night when there
will be a meeting of the Wilson-Gard-
ner Democratic Club. Vineyard last
night declared that before the close
