Although the county elections art
almost year off there has been quite
little furry among the local Demo
Gratis dufing the past two weeks and
indications from this far on point are
that there will be quite a nice little
fight in the Democratic county pri-
mary in August, 1921.
Charles Slack the popular Market
street barber, was the first to toss. his
hat into the ring and he Is going after
the big money in the sherif's Office.
Charles is most popular young man
and the man who wins the Democratic
nomination for this office will have to
reckon with the ballot marks made by
his hundreds Of friends in all parts Of
the county.
Mr.. William Downing, former res
ldent OF Maysville but now residing In
Lewisburg. his old home precinct, also
says he wants to carry the banner Of
Democracy in the sheriff's race and
he too is a strong man who VIII make
formidable campaign.
There are at least three or four
others who are making a-still hunt
to ascertain the feeling of the public
in regard to this Office and II all re-
