Re ady for the Fray

Carson City was busy burg Satur-
day night The office OF the Seere-
tary OF State was kept open until
midnight and many of the state
officials. and ex-Judge p. A. MeCar-
ran and eN-Attorney General George
Thatcher watched until the close Tor
surprises, many not being sprung ac-
cording to schedule.
William Kennett, Clerk OF the SUI
preme CURT, is about the happiest
man in the capital He has no op-
ponent and will continue in Office ~.
disturbed for four more years.
The filing on Saturday. by Senator
James 7. Boyd OF Reno. OF his eandi-
dacy for the Democratic nomination
for Governor was the all-absorbing
topic OF discussion among Democrats.
All the plans OF the state house poll
ticians were upset by his sudden en-
trance into the race. Everything had
been carefully manipulated 50 as to
avoid primary contests and in event OF
commissions. There was secret re-
joicing at the apparent success OF
official POLITICAL manipulation. But
the appearance of the old democratic
| war horse just naturally spilled the
beans. Senator Boyd has been a
leader in democratic councils for years
1t was to him that Senator Francis
| G. Newlands turned whenever the po-
itcal pot boiled and it was the leader
ship of Boyd that turned many near
| defeat to victory. He is a fearless and
energetic fighter and has state ac-
quaintance second to none. He is
liberal in his views, but one of those
| men who insist that all laws on the
statutes be strictly enforced, enforced
alike for the rich and the poor Jim
Boyd will certainly put pep in the pri-
mary election campaign.
The wise ones in Reno had arranged
their bets on the republican U. S. SEN
atorial nomination race. 1t was to
be Chandler. Buol and AREN'T, in the
order named. Then came the thun-
derbot Sam Platt is candidate.
Can you beat it? That upscts the
whole works Platt is a campaigner
| and recognized republican leader.
1t is admitted that he will get many
votes that would otherwise have gone
to Chandler and Arentz Buol is
conceded the votes OF all the liberal
element in the republican party. a
careful study OF the vote of the state
will convince you that the candidate
among the four named who receives
$500 votes will be the candidate of his
party.
Chandler, Plat, Arentz,
Arentz, Chandler, Platt,
Plat, Arentz, Chandler,
How is it going to go?
Ena, Mena, Nina, Mo,
Peter Buol is not so slow.
The candidacy of Judge Talbot foi
the Supreme Court in looked upon as
in no way endangering the reelection
of Justice J. A. Sanders. Judge Tai
bot and Sardis Summerfield will con
test in the primaries for the privilege
OF remaining on the ticket with Judge
Sanders at the general election.
Rumor has it that certain wealthy
office seekers financed the candidacy
of several on the republican ticket
1t is generally believed in Carson
City that extra inducements had to be
offered to get candidates to file against
State Printer Joe Farnsworth and Sur
veyor General c. l.. Deady. No two
offices in Carson are more efficiently
managed that the State Printing and
the State Land Office.
The democrats have only two con
tests for places on the state ticket
They must choose between Boyd and
Scrugham for governor; and between
c. l.. Richards, Archie Cross and w
II. Huskcy for congressman.
