THE KOKOMO TRIBUNE, MONDAY, MARCH 7,1938 FIVE FACIMLIT Political Ranks Reported to Be Divided Over Support of Two-Year Officials REPUBLICANS WATCH RIFT Appleton Enters Primary Race Against Harper; Hoover May Have Opposition Tipton, 6-Trlbune Special)--While activity In the llp- tor, county Republican ranks is conspicuous by its absence, there arc persistent rumors from various sources that political feudI developing In the Democratic family which may reach sensational proportions. The buzz of political gossip centers the friction around the contest for nomination to ihc ficc of prosecuting attorney. There reports over the week-end that the matter might be aired before the county commissioners rtiirinp their session scheduled for Monday. The rift in the party, which Is said to have followed political appointments, seems to have grown, wider tho primary campaign gcc.i under way. Activity, reliably reported from aomo townships in the county, threatens to plunge the fcurl into a contest of bitter pro-portions.

More or less involved, it seiil, is the political custom of the party's undivided support to two-year candidates who seek to succeed themselves for another term of office. This custom, politicians claim, is not traditional in respect to four-year offices. Two candidates In the Democratic party are already announced for the office of auditor. Joe Mattlngly asks his party to favor his return to office. Waldo Darrow.

of Madison township, has announced his candidacy for auditor on the Democratic ticket. Minority Quietly Watfhlnc; A short time ago, there were un- oRicial but reliable reports that tho county Democratic organization, or that contingent comprising the township and county chairmen, would support in the primary campaign the candidates who would succeed themselves to two-year offices. That there is a division of opinion within the party in thin matter is quite evident In the entry of Allan A. Appleton in the race for prosecutor against Floyd E. Harper present incumbent.

While there haa not been to date any Democratic candidate announced in opposition to Parkc Hoover, county treasurer, it is known that persons prominent In the party do not believe that he is the strongest candidate to be and later developments, it is believed, will flnd him opposed in the primary. Apparently, political wiseacres In I the minority party arc sitting quietly on the sidelines watching the family feud develop and prepared to take advantage of whatever may develop as campaign material In the fall election. March 23, Bond Sale Day Municipal utility revenue bonds, in the amount of $144,000, secured by the revenue from tho city llghi and water plant, are to be sold to the best bidder on March 23. In a legal advertisement, gross reveauo of the plant in 1937 is listed at $149,837.96 and net revenue at Proceeds of the bonds will be used to pay the Wlnton Corporation, of Cleveland, the balance remaining against the city Mectric generating plant. Ir.

addition to an initial saving of $12,000 in the purchase price of the plant equipment, loweri rate of interest will effect an appreciable saving. Bids are not to include interest higher than SVj per cent a year. The present rate on monthly payments is 6 per cent. The bonds are to be issued in and art payable acmi-annually in amounts of $5,000, the first payment to be due April 1, 1910. The last payment, JB.OOO.

will be due Oct. 1, 1953. Conditions impose 3Vi per cent a year as the maximum rate of Accrued interest must be included in the bid and any premium Is not to be included in the interest -rate. A good-faith deposit of $5,000 is required of all bidders. It believed that because of the investment value of the bonds, based on the earning capacity of the plant, efficient and economical operation and the city's excellent financial condition in relation to bonded Indebtedness, tho bonds will bring nn appreciable premium.

The coupe in which the were riding, was found to have been stolen earlier in the evening from an Indianapolis garage.

Douglas Sheid, of the Ford Motor Sales company, reported that thieves had entered office from the garage in the rear by prying open a service window.

The thieves left the building by ripping off a lock on a rear sliding door, causing considerable property damage.

Officials of the Fear-Campbell poultry company on Bunnell street, reported that the front door of the safe in their office had been broken off but that the thieves had failed to gain entrance Into the inner compartment.
