T, Wilson has received the Indorse ment of tha Municipal association for sheriff and Walter H. Evans for dis trict attorney. ' In a circular letter sent out .over the signatures of D. A. Pat tullo. president, and John ,Baln. secre tary, Cameron, Fouts and Joy are classed as undesirable candidates for district Attorney,- and Holllngsworth, McAllister and Cox are opposed as can didates for sheriff. The letter In part savs: Anions the candidates for the office of district attorney are George J. Cam eron, Seneca Fouts and Allan Ti. Joy. Cameron is the Incumbent. He has blocked Rll efforts at prosecution of social evils, while his general Ineffi ciency has degraded his office, making it a byword and a farce. Fonts Is notorious as the chosen coun sel of the vicious elements of the com munity and It is easy to Imagine what the administration of , the office will be should he be elected, Joy has been allied In the city coun cil with the liquor Interests and he has failed to make a record for himself which would commend him as a candi date for this office Of all the other candidates, we are decidedly of the opinion that Walter H. Evans is the man who gives prom ise of highest efficiency and experience as a publio prosecutor, and who at the same time Is most likely to defeat the unworthy candidates. Mr. Evans' rec ord as United States deputy district at torney la excellent, and In confirmation of this we need only, mention his suc cess in rrcsecutlrgr the hlte (slave cases which have been under his charge Of 19 cases brought before the court only one was lost.

He promists to carry out Sheriff Stevens' , policies, which Include prac tically unmolested license for gamb ling and the disreputable roadhouses, which have disgraced the county. McAllister, who was the promoter of the home rule liquor law at the last state election, a measure - adroitly planned to deceive the voters. This faot is suggestive of the forces behind his candidacy. Cox. who was ex-Mayor Simon's chief of police and was Indicted by the grand Jury. . Among the other candidates is J. T. Wilson, distinctly opposed to the poli cies for which all the above named men stand. He la a well known cltisen who for 18 years has been prominently iden tified here with movements wM.-hhave made for better conditions morally and socially and whose business career has been successful, while his experience as a peace officer elsewhere assures his fitness for the office, 1 Iowa Sow Likes the West.

"There's more than One vote gained f r your c & hen i.j t .: a r.. in down to rs'.?;i'r," he remar'v-.l. "When it comes ,Jowa' to the UW said HoUlr.csworth, ''it Is rldlettlnue to say that any one candidate wiil have the gererai eurrcTt of any ona candi date. Therefore, it Is ridiculous to e.ay one candidate will have the solid labor vote, another the solid capitalistic vote, a third the solid fraternity vota.
