POINTS IN POLITICS
Reports received by Mr. McCIay from
all parts of the state cause him to take
a particularly hopeful view of his can
didacy. Mr. McCIay has carefully re
trained from invading territory vhere
there are favorite sons in the race for
the nomination for auditor; but assur
ances reach this city daily that the gen
eral feeling among the republicans of
the state is very friendly to Mr. McCIay.
Lancaster county is modest in her de
mands this year. With only one candi
date for a state office, and that candi
date a man of Mr. McClay's strength,
there does not seem to be any reason
why the nomination for auditor should
not come to this county.
Impartial observers notice the ac
celerated movement of the Eugene
Moore gubernatorial boom. Within the
last few weeks Mr. Moore's candidacy
has developed considerably. In the
northeastern part of the state especially
he is receiving warm support, and there
are indications that he has some strength
in nearly all sections. Mr. Moore has
always been popular with the peopln.
His administration of the affairs of the
auditors office has been such as to in
spire the confidence of the public. He
is justly regarded as a competent, trust
worthy man. In the office of governor
he would render efficient, able service.
Mr. Moore will be a decidedly formid
able factor in the state convention.
The election of the republican candi
dates for municipal offices is pretty gen
erally conceded. An effort is being
made to concentrate demo-pop-prohib
strength on the hybrid candidates for
police judge and water commissioner,
but neither Judga Waters nor Mr.Byer
is believed to be in serious danger. Mr.
Schwind is an excellent young man, but
republicans are generally well satisfied
with the administration of Waters, and
they can see no good reason for not sup
porting him. Mr. Waters has held the
office for four years, and during all that
time there has not been a single charge
against him. He has never been ac
cused of making improper use of bis
office. He has kept his record decidedly
clear. Few people appreciate the diffi
culties in the way of the police judge.
It is the meanest office in the city. It
is surrounded by demoralizing influ
ences. Judge Waters has withstood tho
influences that most of his predecessors
succombed to, and bis record is greatly
to his credit.. His personal habits are
good, and his official record will bear the
closest scrutiny.

preparations which claim to be cures, but
