CANDIDATES OUT EARLY

Miller Davis Has Support of Element That Cleaned Up City In Recent Prosecutions.

The race for county chairman of the republican party Is expected to develop into one of the warmest struggles of the coming campaign. Clem Richards, who during the last election was county chairman for the republicans, is again in the field with a large following. One man, prominent In politics In Vigo county, said yesterday that if Richards wished to be again chosen to lead the party during the campaign he was of the belief that he was entitled to the office, having been at the head of the party during a loosing campaign.

Miller Davis, young republican attorney and who Is considered Influential among the younger set of republicans, is also In the field. It is expected that enough of the youngefr contingent will rally to his support to make the fight interesting.

Up to the present time but two candidates are openly In the field for nomination for sheriff. They are George Krietenstein, \jcho is at the present tim" contesting John J. Shea's title to the office, and Thomas Gregory, who has been a candidate for office in two previous campaigns. Each man has a large following. Will H. Hioff has been mentioned for the nomination for treasurer.

Five Out for Clerk.

The five candidates In the field for the nomination of county clerk are expected to put up an interesting race. The candidates who 'have announced themseves openly are Capt. A. C. Duddleston, Thatcher Parker, former postmaster, Jerome Perry, George Greenleaf and William F. Mendenhall.

It has been rumored that the HenryDavis Nattkemper Bogart workers have divided on the nomination f^ clerk and that Ora Davis, George Namk^mper and Attorney Paul Bogart have united in supporting Greenleaf, while Judge Henry has declared himself for Mendenhall. Henry denies, however, that he will take any rpart in the political activities of Vigo^dounty during the coming campaign. It is at-serted that Greenleaf, who was one of the main witnesses during the federal trials at Indianapolis, will be supported by Miller Davis, candidate for county chairman. Judge 43a C. _Stimson, step-father of Miller Davis, is one of the stapnehest supporters of Thatcher Parker.

Mendenhall and Greenleaf are said to base their hopes on the number of labor votes they will receive. Duddleston, who is a member of the printers' Union Is also basing his hopes to nomination on the labor party, while Parker is said to depend upon the farmer vote for his prestige. He, however, says that he has always employ-

Miller Davis has gathered about him an active organization of young republicans who are contending that Davis is entitled to the post for his activities, in the recent clean-up here and the reform element, while they give credit to Richards for faithful work, declare that he is not of the vigorous type needed to lead the party in the next campaign.

Dr. John Hewitt, Albert Catlin and W. H. Hoff are behind Davis In his race for the chairmanship. Mr. Davis says that he has the support of the state organization and the Thatcher Parker element of the Vigo county organization. Richards has told hi:s friends that the chairmanship is not important to him as long as the party can land a winner.

WM STILL HC FLOOD STAGE UNLIKELY

Only Heavy Rains Can Bring River Up to Danger Point, Weather Man Says.

The Wabash river was reported still on the rise late last evening by the local forecaster, W. R. Cade. Reports from Vincennes to Lafayette show that the river has made a general rise during the last twenty-four hours of about six inches. The latter place recorded a stage of 14.7 feet or four feet \^.bove the flood stage.

Barring heavy rains in the vicinity of Terre Haute or north of Terre Haute during the next thirty-six hours the stage here will not exceed 14 feet. The crest of the present rise will pass this city some time Monday. Although the water here is still rising all danger of flood fob the time being is passed, Mr. Cad« thinks. The stage a,t 7 o'clook last evening was ten feet, having risen about six inches during the day.

The lower Wabash in the vicinity of Mt. Carmel Is now falling and should continue to fall during the next two or three days if rains do not fall over the Wabash or White river valleys, Mr. Cade said. V'
