 'The majorities in this county for all democratic candidates having op- penents will be in excess of two hundred, and most of them will bs in excess of five hundred" added the county chairman.
 Continuing, Chairman Lynch said that the reports he Is receiving from other counties in the state show be- yond a doubt that the Democratic State Ticket will be elected from top to bottom as a rebuke to Republican extravaganza and Republican inef- ficiency, coupled with gross negli- gence and oversight in the manage ment of state affairs.
 With the possible exception of Pima, said the county cha;rman." the Democratic state ticket will re- ceive a majority in each county | Cochise and Gila, with their large voting population, are expected to roll ur the biggest democratic ma | jcrity."

Precinct meetings have continued this week with the county candidates making short talks to the voters. | Senator H.

 A pleasing feature of the campaign this week was the coming of Hon. Chas. B. Ward and Sidney F. Osborn who addressed the voters of Clifton and Morenci on Monday night. In this campaign MT. Ward is found where he has always been found in a campaign-out on the fireing line helping his party to victory. MT. Osborn was a warm supporter of MT. Ward in the democratic primaries but both of them are now touring the state in behalf of the successful democratic candidate in the pri- maries.
