Er-COunty Commissioner G. M. Butler,
of Sites NAV Enter Primary.

G. NJ. Butler, of Sites, was in the
city for a few hours yesterday after
noon, having come up from his home
to procure some parts for his binder.
Mr. Butler is engaged quite extensively
in farming and stockraising this year
and states his section has not had a
drop of rain since last April His fall
crop will yield a fair return but the
spring grain will not amount to much.
In conversation with representatives
of the Republican party, the matter
of his candidacy for state senator was
preached and it is entirely possible
Mr.. Butler may decide to become a
candidate for that important office.
He has served as county commissioner
and enjoys wide and favorable ac-
quaintance throughout the county.

interests of the people demand it,
Mr.. Samuels who was nominated by
the convention of the nOn-partisan
