Hon George Van Houten Nominated In Quiet County Primary
In a subdued county primary voters chose Hon. Geo. Van Houten for the representative ticket after Dennis Hamblin withdrew. The race had no factional fight with both candidates aligning to square deal principles. Van Houten held a broad base of support and a later entrant by his opponent favored by perception of greater acquaintance. Also reported: Lawler Bros threshing crew worked a long day at I L Bishop's, threshing 2600 bushels of oats and barley with an average yield of 85 bushels per acre.
