NAVAJO REPUBS GATHER
 AFULL BUT SLIPPERY SLATE

DCl Ol li4C COuSlllublOilelA held many important offices of trust; knows the needs of Northern Arizona; has made a success of his own busi- ness and is held in high esteem by men of all political faiths. The News picks Scott as a winner in the final count in November, and Navajo county's interests will be well repre- sented in Phoenix at the next session of the legislature with Jim Scott in the senate.
 J. E. Kleindienst of Winslow was picked for the next state representa- tive. He is an old resident and con- tractor of Holbrook, and built many of the substantial buildings here. He established the Kbeindienst addition to the town of Winslow and sold the Santa Fe the site of it's present round house and shops He has always been a worker and business man; progres- give, a good speaker and a hard fighter for the improvement of Nav ajo county. He ran for the legisla- ture several years ago and was defeat ed by a small majority, but as this has been forecast as a republican year his chances to realize his form CT ambitions are given an added i'm petus. At present he is foreman in the round house at Winslow. He had several sons in the late war and
 
 voters could depend on having the interests of the county truly repre- tentative.
 J. E. Richards of St. Joseph and C. E. Owens of Snowflake were the men picked to wrestle Freeman and Flani- gan for their seats on the board of supervisors.
 For sheriff Dan Divelbess and R. L. Newman will both endeavor to 5ake the tune out of Charley Harp and only the final election will change their minds.
 John Miller of Snowflake, at pre- sent employed by the Jennings Auto Co.,, was picked as the man to jar Patterson loose from the county's dinero
 For recorder Mrs. F. N. Pingree of Winslow was chosen as the lady to wear the toque of Miss Marguerite Drumm, the present incumbent, and she is in the hands of her friends who will do their best for her if for no other reason than to be chivalrous for she is the only suffragette that was honored at the caucus.
 For county attorney, James 5. Fish of Snowflake was baited for this office and for the good of the cause we hope that he will belle his name.
 Later-he has, and has pulled off.
 Ray Tanner, who was slated for su- perintendent of schools, has a name that should make the contestants for this office that value their hides feel dubious about arguing his rightof- way.
 Bill Williams of Holbrook, a past master in the art of chalking up valuations and assessments on Nav aio property-and two-time winner in previous elections, is coming through for the assessors office on high and his intentions are good to make the fur fly.
 Later-Another raise in gas has taken the wind of Bills sails and he has chucked the assessors game to stay with a sure thing.
 Joseph E. Robinson, president of the California Missions of the Mor- mon Church, now residing at Mesa, was the orator of the day, and re- iuvinated the ardor of the disciples of republicanism that may have need ed flaming back to life after eight years of watchful waiting for the democrats to finish their inning at Washington-and he delivered a forceful, thoughtful and inspiring address on the live issues of the day-and gave it as his opinion that this was a republican year-and it was MT. Robinson's tip that led the shy candidates to agree to take a chance at the old enemy in Novem- Der even though they fall by the wayside.
 While the office of county super intendent of schools seemed for a time to be a drug on the market among the democrats pro- spective candidates, that at first look ed askance- at the job are now com ing back for a second look.

 Thos. R. Greer, who harnessed him. self up early in the game to retain his present berth as county attorney. and later suffered a relapse by blow ing hot and cold on the proposition of ito run CT not to rum has decided that he will run, and after the pri- maries will run some more-and fig ures that after he has made the final heat he will wind up at the old stand in the southwest corner of the second floor of the court house where he says he will hold a recep- tion and open house for the bunch that were his opponents, just to cheer them up after their fall.
