all the Polk picked candidates are
out Tor Neils Madsen, not because
they want to, but because thew
nave to, and like it. All this was
caused by the candidacy of Bob
Wheeler for Clerk & Recorder IF
ne had stayed out, things would
nave been chunky Doree" as Harry
had planned. But Bob Wheeler
also has a host of friends. and
has always been a big vote get
ter IN spite of the terrific cam
palgns that have been made again
st him. Now the question is, can
Wheeler get the vote for Clerk &
Recorder that he was able to mas
ter for surveyor. These votes
are largely the same votes that
have gone for Madsen in the past.
Now, pitted against each other, the
big question is who will get The
vote. Neils Madsen himself does
not like Bob Wheeler. Chairman
of the Board of County Cmmlse

Wall Street Republican, also hates
Bob Wheeler, and has upset his

can, and to divert the money

can't control Bob-Bob refused to
Kow tow to the little corporal, or
pay Harrv's campaign assess
ments. So the county boss is again
st him. Wheeler has also made a
nuisance of himself by always
surveying and proposing WPA
projects in senarate communities
so as to furnish work for those
who need it, close to their homes
which the county commissioners
have promptly turned down and re-
