THE PRIMARY

Tuesday was primary election day
There were big battles for places on
the Republican state ticket and none
on the Democratic or Socialist state
tickets.
The contest between Lenroot
Thompson and McIenry for the Re
publican nomination for United States
senator and the big six angled contest
for the Republican nomination for gov
ernor led a big majority of the voters
to vote Republican tickets as there
were only few minor contests to at
tract them to the Democratic ticket
and, of course, none on the Socialist
ticket. The four-cOrnered contest for
the Republican nomination for sheriff
also attracted the voters to that ticket.

nomination for county treasurer over
John Engelbrecht by 343 to 300. The
Republican vote for sheriff was Schuet-
te 2,49l, AuClair 7Ol, Duebner 5SS,

lette slate for state Offices, but Lam
