He was a railway maij clerk' and was
studying law in the same office, with

- "I was elected district attorney. I
i remember he said to me, 'If I could
I : chly bs elected tothat office after
L i you get through wltH.1t, I think I
would be made in the law.' The
i office paid a salary of $1,500..
: "Before my term-was up. hje had

C. E. Adams, Not Davis,
Pershing Candidate
As District Delegate
In the sample republican ballot,
"fcAiale," printed in The Bee Thurs
day evening, the name of C. El.
;;Davis was erroneously entered in
i place of C E. Adams, as district
delegate to the, national convention.
While it is generally known that
Captain Adams is the Pershing can
didate for district delegate, the error
' caused a little confusion. .The mis
take was due to the copy furbished
by.H. G. MooThead, election com
; missioner. . ' "
Another error was noted in the
sample nonpartisan ballot, "female,"
' wherein the election commissioner's
copy read "Vote for one," instead of
' "Vote for three," of the six muni
i clpal court candidates.
