Indications Point 10 Hot Fight BE-
tween Moral Element and Pres.
ent Stand-Pat Board

The fight for the board OF trustees
OF Deming Is on with the Citizens
Ticket and the Progressive Citizens
Ticket" In the running. With the
county democratic primaries out of
the way, local politicians are ready To
take up the cudgel for renewed combat
which had ceased with sort OF arme,
truce In order to fight out the mere
pressing matters involved In the pri
maries. A warm campaign, though a
short one, Is anticipated.
Following attacks ON the present
board by Evangelist Scoville several
weeks ago, the supporters Of the old
board circulated u petition asking the
members 10 stand again for election.
This brought u threat from the church
and moral element Of the city to place
a democratic church ticket In the field.
The church ticket, however, didn't ma
terialize and the leaders OF the opposl.
ton now declare that the citizens pro.
gressive ticket IL not a church ticket
nor n democratic one, but, as its name
indicates, more progressive and ag-
gressive faction sceising to improve tlie
city both materially and morally.
The present b0ngd did not publicly
avow its intention Of standing for re
election until the official proclamation
OF the election was ready TO be pub
lished. The opposition did not frame
its slate until yesterday afternoon

Evidently neither OF the factions In
volved are ready to take the publ.
into their confidence ana II they hav,
framed platforms, they have not beer
announced. II Is hoped that both fac
tlons will make some statement TO the
voters as to the issues involved, as
otherwise, the whole matter will bt
taken as purely factional fight fol
the honors of ruling the city. The vot
ers will certainly appreciate less per
sonal ambition and partisanship, and
are ready to support candidates who
are unselfish enough to disregard fac
tions and unite for clean and pro
gressive administration.

A meeting of business men and

cial Club rooms Monday night for the
purpose of forming an organization
to perfect plans fer a sales pavilion
for Sank Centre.
r. A. Satterly, vice president of
the National Fleece Wool Growers
association, who has recently estab-
lished sheep ranch here is instuu-
mental in bringing about the meeting
here. Mr.. Satterly bases his argu-
ment for sales pavilion upon a
similar institution at his home in
Pennington, Iowa, and is of the
opinion such an institution is big
advantage to both the stockman and
the business men Of this locality.
"The pavilion at Pennington" said
Mr.. Slatterly, "is owned by corpor-
alton with a capitalization Of $4,000
and through the sales conducted
there is netting it's stockholders as
high as 10 per cent on their invest
ment. Stock is sold at 500 pen
share and it is our plan to have ths
stock in this pavilion owned by the
stock raisers and business men Of the
city and vicinity"
Mr.. Satterly said that he expected
to put on sheep sale in November
and would hold same through the
local pavilion, providing one is erect
ed here this summer.

CALL FOR AN

ATTORNEY FOR ADVICE

WANT MILL FRANCHISE QUIzED
QUESTION ACCESSIBILITY OF
ALLOWING SPECIAL POWER
GRANT

Rather than act too hasty on the
question of the disposal of the St.
Cloud Water Power company that a
franchise be granted them to furnish
electric power to the plant of the
Central Mimi, Power and Milling
company under a special contract
the city council, after listening to the
opinion Of City Attorney L. L. Kells
on the subject, rendered at the last
meeting of the council, have called
for advice from Minneapolis.
The matter of the policy of the
cltys granting this franchise is a
question which is causing some un.
rest in council circles, and Attorney
James O'Brien of Minneapolis, has
been asked to render an opinion on
the case.
An appeal to the Attorney General
resulted in the information that that
Official would not render an opinion
except on the legality of the grant
ing of the franchise, and an opinion
OF the legality of the case is not
deemed necessary in local official cir.
cles.
President George Bergman of the
council, acting mayor in the absence
OF Mayor DuBeau, said Tuesday
morning that the matter of the grant.
ing of the franchise would not be
taken up with the Commercial Club
for it's recommendations until this
new opinion had been granted ane
considered.
The action of the city conucil a.
to the adoption or rejection of thu
power plan hindges to a large extern
