Whitmore Lake, March 30.--The democrats on Saturday nominated such a splendid ticket that the republicans lost their courage and endorsed the whole ticket but Highway Commissioner.

For Supervisor--T. Frank Taylor.
For Clerk--John W. Rane.
For Treasurer--Chas. Nailor.
For Highway Commissioner--Fred Zeeb.
Justice of the Peace, long term--Henry Jung.
For Justice of the Peace, short term--Michael Kennedy.

The Judson-Wedemeyer-Green controversy has broken out here with Judson in the lead. The consensus of opinion is that Wedemeyer associated himself with Judson because he couldn't better himself, Judson did the best he could and Green hung on behind so he get mine.

But the democrats say the reason Mr. Judson could not control Washtenaw is on account of the splendid administration our democratic officials have given to the country the past four years. May it long continue.
