and is one OF Lee county's bestand worthless
citizens. His character is above reproach,
, hia political principles sound, his ftaess for
the place unquestiohed. This possession OF
all the requisites Of . candidate, and good
officer, will secure for him an earnest and
large support. ~
Captain ALI. Roberts, for Sheriff, has lived

1884, be sSE nAde FinA 1ssutsnAnt He
served through four years steady service.
Company "C' was gallant company, and
the Third Cavalry . brilliant and hard serv-
ing regiment, but in company or regiment
there was not soldier of more constant and
proved gallAntry and soldierly q faithfulnsss
than Captain r. He is veteran without
fear and above reproach. He was all his
life, and at the time of entering the army, .
Democrat. He came out of the service still
inclined to conservatism. Recently he passed
a year in Alabama, and seeing the situation
for himself, he became convinced that the
policy Of Congress is the true one for the
South and the country, and is now thorough-
u radical. He has an extensive acquSin-
lance and many warm friends, is popular
candidate and will get strong vote.
Mr. H. w. Rothert, one Of the candidates
for Representive, has lived in Keokuk for
many years as the head Of the large Cincin.
natl Hardware house of Rothert Brothers.
American born, he ia OF German descent and

county that be is sure Of aisree vote.
Of the other candidates for Representative,
J. A. Eaton, Of Washington township, is =
lifelong resident Of the county. He was .
brave and efficient soldier, was severely
wounded 10 the service, Is an honest man, =
good citizen, we'll spoken Of by all his neigh
bors, has sense and fitness for legislator
and will be elected if worth and merit win in
Lee county. Michael Seib is German
citizen Of Franklin who're he has lived great
many years. His industry, intelligence,
honesty, and admirable character as man
have won for him high regard among his
neighbors, and they will warmly support him.
J. W. Frow, for Treasurer, was for some
some time the afieisnt andpopulsr Recorder
of the county. In this capacity he has be-
come SO well known to our people that little
need be said of him. There is no better
man or more competent officer in Lee county.
Eli Beard, for superintendent of Public
inssruetion, and W. H. Morrison, for Sur
veyor, are highly spoken Of, and will make
FIRST rats oGicsrs, il elected ID
DR.. Adolph Weismann, of this city, has
declined the candidacy for Coroner
Here, people Of Keokuk and Of Lee coun.
~, is one Of the best tickets ever offered for
your acceptance. They are good men, ap.
proved good citizens, and viii make good
officers. To their individual fitness for OIL
c'al place, they add the further grand quali>
lhcasaon OF being thoroughly loyal and polt>
ically right. To the effort Of the apostate
johnson. and of the rebel Democracy, to
surrender this country to the rule Of ex-
traitors, they are heartily and uneqnivocaly
opposed For this they deserve the support
OF all Union men. See to it that they have
1t; and that the ticket is elected.
