County Battle for Nomination for Sheriff Is
Close in the Ranks of Both of the
Old Parties.
FISHER NOW HAS BIG LEAD
Scott Defeats Graves for Republican Nomination for
Treasurer after Heart Breaking Contest which
Went Till Last Vote Was In

was a great primary battle and the
hnlsh was not certain until the last of
the returns had come drifting in long
after the cold gray dawn of the morn
ing.
! me narrow margins of victory made
the race exciting on both tickets. 1t
was evident that hundreds of Demo-
I Gratis had deserted their own party and
had helped to pick the candidates for
the Republicans.
Billy Rauen walked off with the Re-
! publican nomination for sheriff with a
plurality Of SO over Jack Milligan.
John Scholey, whose crusadine made
nm the most interesting candidate for
the election, was third in the race,
nearly four hundred votes behind
Rauen, and Freeman who was spon-
sored by the Non-Partisan League was
last in 4the race, nearly a thousand
votes behind the winner.

~ OR. RAJ ha .3r1ap lead of
{ 80 over Hermann, and Wade was third
IN the running, more than two hundred
! votes behind the winner The official
count of the ballots will be necessary
to assure victory in both of the races
for sheriff and the same is true of the
Republican race for the nomination
for county treasurer. On the face Of
the returns, Tom Scott lead "Pop"
Graves by margin of 81 votes.
Fisher by Big Margin.
District Attorney Peter Fisher had
one of the most notable victories of the
primary and he won the Republican
nomination in the three-cornered race
with over 500 to spare. Powell was
second and Symmonds third in the
race. Fisher carried all but one of
the voting precincts in the county and
ran strong in all of the city wards.
The candidates for the other county
offices on the Republican ticket were
largely contesting between the candi-
dates endorsed by the League" and
the regular Republican candidates. Not
one of the league" candidates was
landed winner where there was anv
opposition.
republican Vote Heavy.
The surprise of the primary was the
big vote cast for the Republican can
didates. John F. Schmitt, Jr.. the
Democratic candidate for register of
deeds, was high among the county
Democratic candidates with a total of
1,411 votes while the total vote for a
nomination of district attorney on
the Republican ticket touched the high
mark of $3.50.
If this vote is to be taken as an in.
dication of the vote to be cast at the
election in November, the county il
going to be largely Republican. The
tabulated vote cast for the candidates
for county Offices will be found in an
other column.

Wilcox Wins Kenosha County.
State Senator Roy P. Wilcox of Eau

ment in Kenosha county, having plur-
atty of more than four hundred over
Blaine and of more than seven hun
dred over Seaman. Wilcox romped
home with the long end of the vote in
nearly every voting precinct in the
city and his losses in the county to
Blaine were small. The only town in
the county where Seaman was in the
lead was in the town of Randall where
he had one over Wilcox, but Blaine got
twice. as many as both of the other
candidates. The Non-Partisan League
endorsement seemed to be a winning
card for the state candidates in the
eastern part Of the county, particu-
larly in the towns Of Wheatland and
Randall, but it was no warrant for sue
cess in the city wards.

The liquor forces in the county got
a big vote, and in addition to putting
over Malcolm D. Farr as a candidate
for member of the assembly, they
landed McHenry second to Lenroot in

To see the healthy bloom in your

nasty breath, in fact to feel your best
day in and day out, just try inside

Before breakfast each day, drink a

food into the stomach is wonderfully
L'vigorating. It cleans out all the sour
lamentations, gases and acidity and
gives one fine appetite for breakfast
A quarter pound of limestone phos-
phate will cost very little at the drug
store. but is sufficient to demonstrate
that those who are subject to consti-
patton, bilious attacks, acid stomach,

sallow or paid, that one week of in
side bathing will have them looking
and feeling better every way.
