The report, an authoritative source ‘disclosed, contains allegations of out- side meddling with state troopers who were active in the original investiga- lon of the kidnap-slaying of Charles A.

As might be expected, there has been some trouble over the distribu- tion of federal patronage. Many of the old-timers claim they have been ignored for the newcomers. The lat- ter clamor that they have not been But they do not, and so there will | si be plenty of mental stress and burn- ing of midnight oil. Why leaders of all groups and fac- tions, regardless of party, are inter- ested in the Democratic affiliation is demonstrated by a look at the rec- ords. Here are a few interesting facts: In the Democratic primary in June, 1928, the total vote cast for two can- didates for governor was 11,355, an all-time low for the party in this state. The fight was in the Repub- ‘can party and all but the most straight-laced, among the Democrats cast their ballots on that ticket. That was also the year Walter J. Maddock, a Nonpartisan, was sub- stituted for Fred L. Anderson as the Democratic candidate for governor in the fall and polled 100,205 votes. But that was abnormal since it was mere- ly a carryover from the Nonpartisan vs. IVA contest which had been be- gun in the spring. Every politician recalls the shock which was recorded when more bal- lots were cast in the Democratic pre- ferential primary in March, 1932, than were cast on the Republican side. But that, too, was a phenome- non due to the fact that Mr. Roose- velt, then governor of New York, and “Alfalfa Bill” Murray, then governor of Oklahoma, were entered in a race which made the Democratic contest interesting, whereas the Republican primary was a joke. By June, 1932, however, the Demo- crats had mustered enough strength to get 26,066 persons out to vote for governor. This being about their normal primary strength after the years of affiliation, first with the IVA and then with the Nonpartisan faction of the Republican party. In June, 1934, the Democratic total ‘was 38591. This. was far less than the 198,341 total recorded in the Re- publican column, but it must be re- membered that the latter; was en- livened by the division in the Repub- lican party which later manifested itself by the election of Thomas H. Moodie, a Democrat, to the governor- ship. Since that time the Democrats have been steadily at work oiling up the political machinery. A many, individuals give the Democrats the best chance of retaining power in Washington and many will want to prove their party affiliation by pri- mary records, for one reason or an- other. The result may be # surpris- ing number of Democratic ballots in the primary. The point is what effect would a heavy surge of voters into the Demo- cratic party have on the outcome of the Republican contest. : of ve have al- ways voted the Democratic ticket. The bedrock Republican vote which high | President Hoover received in 1932 came from the conservative side of the party fence. On that basis, it is @ good deal easier for the progres- sive voter than for the more staid element to switch from the Republi- can to the Democratic side. But this does not necessarily hold true in. state affairs. The question remains which of the various Re- publican groups would be helped or hurt by a substantial increase in the Democratic primary vote. Answer that one and you may have the answer to the fight in the Re-| 9+ publican ranks. As to the number of votes most likely to be cast in the Democratic primary put it down as between 40,- 000 and 60,000, nearer the latter than the former. ** * That there will be a fight in the Republican primary is certain.

All Rebels Surrender The first communique from the headquarters of General Kashii who had ranged more than 4,000 loyal good troops against the 1,000 rebels, said the suppression of the insurrection was completed with the surrender or capture of all insurgents. ‘The cabinet secretariat announced, “when the insurrection broke out, Premier Okada was reported killed in the official residence. Now, however, it is disclosed that the person there killed was actually Col. Denzo Matsuo. “It was discovered that Premier Okada was living unharmed.
