Of the quietest campaigns in its his
tory. Only the Republicans have
made a statement of platform.
The election at Mitchell is I'M
usual in that there are five tickets
in the field. Owing to the strength
shown by candidates on all the
states, observers are making no pre-
dictionS as to the outcome.

licans at Huntington have been
waging a bitter campaign over
