Increasing Disposition Shown to de mand KetiUrltj" In Nomina tion Effect on Dr. Lane's Proapect Discussed. Greater Interest In the Mayoralty con test Is being- manifested among; tha Democrats. It now appears as though, regardless of whether Dr. Lane enters the race, the atrlfe for the minority party nomination wl".l be between George H. Thomas, county chairman, who haa already filed hla announcement, and Tom Word. For several days friends of the ex-Sheriff have been In sistent In their demands thst ha become a candidate for the nomination. Entrance of Word Into the fight would have the effect of forcing Lane's hand before the prlmarlea. or. regardless of the result of the Democratic primaries, of lessening Lane's chances aa an Inde pendent candidate should he come out sfter the result of the primaries Is knoan. Wltn a great many Democrats. It la a case of Lane coming out before tha primaries and taking his chsnces for the party nomination or forfaiting the support of his party If ne decides subeequently to lecome an Independent candidate against tha Republican nomi nee. Stress Laid on Regularity. In tha approaching contest the Demo crats are determined to have In the field a candidate for Mayor who haa been regularly nouVnated by the party voters and who. as a result, will be In .a posi tion to expect tha united support of tha party. There Is a more pronounced dis position among Democrats than baa been witnessed locally In years to support tha party a nominees as decided In the pri maries. For this reason they Wll with hold thetr aupport from either Indepen dent or Republican candidates In tha June election. The continued reticence of Lane is accepted by Democrats as furnlshtng further proof of the reported compact between I.ane and Rushlight, who t plres to the Republican nomination, by the terma of which neither Is to oppose the other. The suspicion Is growing stronger every dsy that Lane haa no intention of becoming a candidate for the Democratic nomination In the p.i- marles. It Is f'.rmly beiieveo. inai . Lane'a purpose to keep out of tha pri maries and depend on obtaining tha nomination through the voluntary action of his Democrstlc friends In wrIUng hla name on tha ballot. Repabllcaa Outcome Awaited. Falling to receive the party nomina tion In this way. report has It that his further course II1 depend on the out come of tha Rrpub'.lcsn primaries. Should Rushlight not receive the Repub lican nomination. Lane la expected to enter the contest aa aa Independent can didate. With Word and Thomas both In tha race for the Democratic nomination. Lane would have an interesting time winning should he enter as the third contestant. If he remains o-t of tha Democratic primaries and becomes aa Independent candidate la the regular municipal election, the chances of the Republican nominee would be improved la proportion as the opposition vote would be divided between Lane and tha candidate of the Democratic party chosen In the primaries. candidate for Democratic nomination aa Representative in Congress a few yeaua ago.
