STRONG TAKES IT|
UNOFFICIAL COUNT GIVES HIM
NOMINATION
Choose Sherman for Sheriff, Kyle for
Senator And Lamb For Rep
y resentative

With unofficial reports in from
practically every precinct and town
in the county, II. w. King, county
clerk, was able at noon to make a
fairly accurate count on Tuesdays
primaries. Over 1900 Republican
votes were east while less than $50
Democratic ballots were cast. This
was due. TO- the fact that many
Democrats cast Republican ballots.
Strong Takes Dickinson 6S'
In the Republican race for con
gress Congressman n strong had
a majority of 1877 atsdopn in Dick
inson. Unofficial reports from other
counties show that Strong is leading
Marshall by small margin every
where. The result Of the vote for
congressman cannot be given defin-
itely as yet.
8 Allen and Curtis Lead
Governor Allen carried away L.
750 of DickinsOn's Republican votes
while Snow received only 500. In
the senatorial contest, Senator Chas.
Curtis took the county by a three to
one majority.
In the fight for superintendent Of
insurance the county gave Travis
only 724 to Banks zoos. But Travis
has been e-elected in the state by
large majority,
In the contest for attorney general
Hopkins lead by two to one vote.
Sherman In Sheriff
g. A. Sherman, now undersherih,
won the nomination for sheriff by a
400 majority. His closest rival was
Krause of HeringtOn who received a
large number Of Herington's votes
but lost in the county.
H. G. Kyle - was nominated for
state senator over A. H .RyOn. He
carried Dickinson by three to one
vote and took the remainder Of the
district easily.
Choose Book and Funk
John Book was chosen by 130
majority for commissioner from the
third district while E. NJ. Funk was
chosen from the second district by
lead Of 800 over his nearest Oppo-
nent, H C. Brenizer.
Majority For Lamb
Although HeringtOn cast big vote
for Williams, Lamb won the nOmina-
ton for state representative by 241
majority.
s.. s.. Smith, present county attor-
ney, received a good three to one vote
for denomination. H. G. Wingerd
was chosen as trustee from the Sec
ond district.
Hassler For Sheriff
Little interest was shown in the
Democratic primary. Hassler won
the nomination for sheriff by 1O4
majority. J. A. Engler was selected
as commissioner from the third dis
trict. No other offices were in COM
petition.
Dickinson's Democratic vote was
cast for Davis for governor. Davis
nomination seems almost assured as
he has large lead in the state.
n Herington q Jinx
WHerington's votes, while they did
not turn the nomination in any case,
were radically different than any
other section Of the county. The
town went three to one for Snow
in preference to Allen, and strong
vote was cast against Lamb, Her
ingtOn man. The vote was 1873 for
Lamb and $50 for Williams. Joe
Marshall had the lead on Strong and
Krause for sheriff took all the votes
in town.
Official Count Soon
The Reflector will print In both
the daily and weekly the complete Of
fetal ballot. 1t will not be given
ont until Friday by the county clerk. |

SHAMROCK " LAUNCHING TO-DAY:
 FREAKISH LINES ELIMINATE

City Island. N: Y, May 25.-Launch- ing of Sir Thomas Lipeons Shamrock ", which is to sail for the Americas Cup off Sandy Hook in July, is set for tomorrow.
 The Irish baronet in renewing his quest. for the historic trophy, a quest begun more than a quarter of century ago, will have in the water this season a very different Shamrock to that which crossed the Atlantic in 1914.
 Virtually all her freak lines have been eliminated. The peculiar scow bow which made the craft unusual when she first came here has, been re-,'aced by a more conventional one. Th.s was done after inspection by Designer Charles E. Nicholson during the last year of the Resolute and Vanitie, the American de- lenders, and realization that the freak Shamrock would have little chance against either of the American craft.
 Last alterations were completed today when little lead was added to the keel. As the changes have been many no one would predict just what was to be expected of the rebuilt races.
 After she is launched, it probably will take week to rig her. Therefore she will not be seen under sail before mex, week.
 The Vanitie lies across the sound, hay. ing arrived yesterday off the New York Yacht clubs anchorage at Glen Cove Rear Admiral Nichols plans to take the craft Thursday under tow to Newport tc resume the interrupted series with the i Resolute.

BRITISH. COMMENT UPON
 WILSON'S ARMENIAN MESSAGE

London. May 25.-"President Wilson has presented dramatic challenge to congress and his countrymen upon the subject Of their international duties" says the Pal Mall Gazette. dealing with the Armenian message. He has asked for authority to accept a mandate for Armenia in the name of the United States and the answer will be fraught with moral consequences of the highest importance.
 Great Britain has all the responsibili- ties she can carry; none of the other European powes are prepared 10 take Armenia undeS their jurisdiction; the League of Nations, favored by American in words but rejected in act, has no re- sources or capacity for playing protector If America refuses the charge. it means the abandonment of Armenia to enemies which surround her on every side and probably the eventual exterminstion of g race already decimatcd by hideous cruel ty.
 Tt is a crucial decision which con gress is invited to take If it's answer is in the negative it must register 1T sinister terms the salue to be placed up on America's enihusiasms."

Is Your Blood Starving For Want of Iron ?
Iron is Red-Blood Food d-Nuxated Iron Helps Put Roses Into the Cheeks of Women and
 Gives Strength and Energy to Men

If you were to go without eating until you become weak. thin and emaciated, you could not do a more serious harm to yourself than when you let your blood literally starve for want of iron-iron that gives it strength and power to change food into living tissue, muscle and brain. Without plenty of iron in the blood, no matter how much or what you eat, your food simply passes through you without doing you any good-you don't get the strength out of it and instead of being filled with youthful strength and energy you are weak, nervous and all rundown. If you are not strong or well you owe it to yourself to make the following test: See how long you can work or how far you, can walk without becoming tired. Next teke two hve- grain tablets of ordinary Nuxated Iron three times per day after meals for two weeks, then test your strength again and sec how much you have gained. Numbers of nervous . run.down people who were ailing all the while have most astonishingly increased their strength and endurance simply by taking iron in the proper form. But don't take the old kinds of iron simply to save a few cents. You must take iron in a form that can be easily absorbed and assimilated like Nuy;- ated Iron if you want it to do you any good, otherwise it nav prove worse than useless. You can procure Nuxated Iron from youf druveist on an absolute guarantee Of satis faction or your money will be refunded.

HOLSTERS ARE PLENTIFUL

 Notwithstanding prohibition. which had been expected to cause a lessened demand for the crustaceans because of their association with liquid refreshment on restaurant menus dealers said the de- mand was running high and that the big shipment had no effect on prices.
