NOM|CAL ADM|N|STRA-
TON IS ASSURED

That the arrangement by which Adrian Nelson
has acted probate judge and clerk of the district
court since April 1917, by which the salary of
official saved to the taxpayers of the county
will be continued, is assured by the statement of
the Republican county platform to which both Judge
Nelson and Homer Estes, county auditor and clerk
of the district court have subscribed The following
plank from the Republican platform is here re-
produced:
1--WE heartily recommend the action of the board
of county commissioners of Latah county in ap-
pointing Adrian Nelson to the office of probate
judge and thereby consolidating the office of the
clerk OF the district court and the office of probate
judge at a saving to the taxpayers of more than
one thousand dollars per annum, and if elected
Homer E. Estes, Republican candidate for clerk of
the district court and ex-offcio auditor and re-
corder, pledges himself in the event of Adrian Mel
sons election to the office of probate judge to re-
appoint him to the office of deputy clerk of the
district court in order that the same economical
administration may be continued as that which now
exists, and if elected, Adrian Nelson Republican
candidate for probate judge, pledges himself that
he will continue to perform the duties Of the two
offices for the next two years.
To the foregoing statement we give our full APP
prova and pledge ourselves to carry out its pro-
visions

To the Voters and Tax Payers of
Latah County:
One of the most important duties

of Latah county, it's economical hand
ling by our county officials, and call
your attention to the fact that it is
the best governed county in the state.
The following statement from Byron
Defenbach & Sons, public accountants,
who have audited practically every
county in Northern Idaho. stands as
strong testimonial to the officials
now directly responsible for handling
the finances of Latah county, and
which statement appears in the sPoca-
tello Tribune under date of October
8, 1918.
Comparing the various counties of /
the state.by sections from an account
ants standpoint, the broad general I

counties of Idaho are far superior to
those of the South, and Latah county
is pronounced to be the best governed
county in idaho"

last past, and our candidates nominal
ed at the primary are known by all

capable to handle the affairs of this
county if elected

CHICAGO MAY HAVE
ALL TITLE BATTLES

CHICAGO. Aug. 15.-There Is q
chance that every one OF the worlds
series games will be played in Chi
cago this year; that is, II the Cubs are
the winners in the National and the
Boston Red Sox In the American. This
word came from Cincinnati today,
where 1t was announced that the hrst
game would be scheduled on Septem-
Der T. The usual plan OF playing two
games in one city and two in the
other will be abandoned to save rail
road jumps and the high cost OF
travel
The series will as usual consist OF
the best four games out OF seven, and
will be over as soon as either team
has won four games.
II Cleveland should win out In the
American League a different plan may
be followed, but II It is between Bos-
ton and Chicago the schedule will be
played as outlined above.
