While it Is generally conceded he

his supporters that his primary uSnt

While the farmer-labor party as
such is stiIl making a desperate ef-
fort TO build up ticket, the State

Mrs. Frances Axtell of BeiiinghArr is
being talked of as a farmer-labor

Mrs. Axtell was one of the two wom-
en- who were the first of their sex to
sit in the Washington legislature, in
1919. Later she was appointed on thn
iederai Workmens compensation
board by President Wilson.
The Poindexter support to date is
more OF a negative rather than
positive nature. Poindexter is nor a
strong candidate. He is fortunate In
having opposition which is unable to
develope candidate upon which all
of the anti-Poindexter element can

At the same time, campaign

JACKsONNILLE. E,a.. July 15.-.
cal waters in this rock-ribbed demo-
cratic state. the June primary having
disposed of the matter of candidates,
from those for the United States
Senate to eeonstables in the counties.
Little po:n- sal talk Is heard except
as regards the possibility of va
rfety of republican votes at the cleo
ton in November. The republican
parues-there being two in the state
at present and one declared to be
"all-w<se"-have more or less can

TIE voters will commit perjury, out
apparently some are disposed to tor
get their oaths and bolt. after b>v-
ing been more or less active in the
doings Of the democrats.
The editor of the only admittedly
republican newspaper, J. H, Wendler.
who Ia ut the head of the Florida
Post published at Orlando and Win
ter Park. was taken from his home
and beaten and tarred by a group of
uuudSAeu men a week OF Two ago.
Those In Orlando and others in the
state declare that the tarring party
was composed of men who had per-
sonal reasons for disliking Wendler
and cared nothing for his politics.
The rough handling of Wendler was
universally condemned by the state
press. which Is democratic. The
Florida Post. while stoutly holding
for national republicanism. was not
in accord with either faction of the
party in the state. Breaking with
the black k-and-tan" faction, which
includes all colors. it does not seem
to have been favored by the ALI
white party" organized in Orlando
recently.
Unless something unforeseen comes
up, there is a light vote and a fair
sized democratic majority to be ex-
pected IN November for Florida. The
complicated nrst and second choice
primary has been condemned, as
usual. following the election in June.
and the official returns are just now
being fled away. Demands for a re-
turn to the old time convention plan
are heard in various directions and
the people generally appear to be
disguised with the primary system,
declaring that 1t is worse than any
thing yet undertaken and far less
satisfactory than the convention.

SIOUX FALLS, S. D., July 15.-The
democrats of South Dakota, who have
opened a strong fight with the object
of electing their candidates for gov
ernor and other state offices at the

perform the gastronomic feat of swal-
lowing the South Dakota branch of
the Farmers National Non-partisan

cess.
They have succeeded in alternating
from the non-partisan league one OF
the league leaders. in the person of
P. P Kleinsasser. who at the Mareh
primary election was nominated as
the non-partisan league candidate for
lieutenant governor of South Dakota.
Kleinsasser has resigned fronD the
nom partisan league and from the
ticket OF the league and has come
out in support of l.. n. Grill, demo-
ocratic candidate for Governor OF South
Dakota, and the democratic state ticket.
States His Position.
In a public statement Mr.. Kleinsas-
ser states that if the votes of those
opposed to what he terms the repub-
lican state machine" are divided be-
tween Miss Alice Lorraine Daily. the
non-partisan league nominee for gov
ernor. and Mr.. Grill. ,the democratic

even though only minority of the
voters vot for him. II hnd." says the

this opposition seems to be support

great many more votes than Miss
Daily and our state ticket. 1 see no
chance of our non partisan league
ticket being elected. Feeling as
strongly opposed to the state ma

an extract from the columns OF
our esteemed contemporary, the

emily compiled from a recent re-
port Of the secretary OF the State
Board of Education. AS noted III
the article referred to, there have
been various changes in the order
OF rank in city and county school
;systems from last year. Eliza
beth City County jumps from
eighth rank to first i'll the list OF
one hundred counties. Arlington
County goes frora' third to second
place. Loudoun County from
ninth to fourth. Franklin County
ranked lowest last year and has
not advanced.
Among the twenty cities, Win
chester takes first place this year.
which Norfolk held last year. Our
own city ranks nineteenth this
year as against eighteenth last
year. The city OF Bristol ranks
twentieth this year, as against SIN
teenth last year.
This information is especially
interesting in view of the Ga
