The Republican is pretty well filled
today with election notices and the
official ballots to be voted at the
June oath primary. 1t would be well
for our readers to study these notices
and the ballots carefully so that they
may vote intelligently, especially for
three members Of the Board Of Coun-
ty Commissioners, this being the first
time voters are called upon to cast
their ballots for candidates residing in
different zones or districts Of the
county.
