purpose Of furthering the ends of organized
labor.
James A. johnson is the dying song of
the Progressive party, but at that he will
show much strength and may make Dobson
look to his lallres
In thirty-third district William Wray
will be opposed by Louis Williams, but SO
far as the writer knows both are good men
and one or the other is sure to win.
The thirty fourth senatorial district will
vote for Y. d. Rockwell and Ralph Horr
The former is backed by the hotel men and
the old time ''liquor men, while the latter
is being backed by the active Republicans
of the district. 1t looks very much like
Ralph will come under the ropes with bells
on.
Frank H. Renick of the thirty-fifth SEN
atorial district will be forced to cross swords
with Alice Lord, labor leader. And about
all that can be said Of the scrap is that
Frank will not have a cake walk but he
is an old stager at the political game and
will put up manly fight. On the other
hand Alice is a public spieer of the kind
you read about in books and with organized
labor solidly at her back she will give her
opponent the fight of his life.
Hastings and Steiner are the candidates
seeking the nomination in the thirty-sixth
senatorial district and despite the fact
Steiner now holds the office it's safe bet
that Hastings will whip him clean out of
his boots
In thirty-seventh district the fight is be-
tween Ed Palmer, George B. Lamping
and Mrs. w. L. Presto and "believe me-
its some scrap Ed Palmer is perpetual
politician, that is to say, does politics year
in and year out, always got somebody on
his payroll doing politics for him. He has
an organization that will be hard to beat.
He is an 'interest" man pure and simple
and whatever money he needs for campaign
purposes he will get it.
Mrs. w. L. Presto is a well known club
woman and if the members thereof stand
by her she will pool a very large vote.
Clayton Weekly can cheerfully recommend
Mrs. Presto to the voters Of that district
Col. George B. Lamping is well and
favorably known and will per Sc get
large vote, but in addition he should Get a
very large vote on account of the reason
he filed. If nominated and elected he will
