and that Miss Katherine Craig, Re-
pubiican candidate for superintendent
Of public instruction has been defeated
BY Mrs. Mary c. G. Bradford, the pres
ent incumbent of the office.
In this county the ehairmen of the
two parties conducted clean and dig
nified campaign, and the various can
didates refrained from the mud sling
ing tactics that too otter characterize
spohtical campaigns.
It was largely give and take prop
osition, both parties winning some and
losing some of their candidates. With
the exception of Mrs. Pottenger and
Commissioner Higgins, one Democrat
and the other a Republican, the Gins"
remained in, successfully resisting any
tncroachments upon their reserves.
+ AT the time we go to press the fig
ures Indicate the election of Judge
Bell to succeed himself by small mar
gin over his opponent, E. E. wheatley,
of Grand Valley, and the defeat of
Mrs Pottenger, county superintendent
Of schools, by 8. B. Potter of Rifle. 1t

Figures will govern the final >results,
