OUR TICKET.
Hon. T.. S. SAMPSON.

who was without opposition, put in
nomination for Judge of the 9th Dis.
trict, second term, by the Judicial
Convention at this place last Wed
nesday, is well known as one of the
best and most popular Judges that
ever presided over the District, and
the fact that no opposition was
made, shows in what estimation he is
held by his brother lawyers. Frank,
firm, open and impartial, he presides
with dignity and ability, which are
to him, the stepping stones for high
er and more useful Gf possible)
sphere, to which the people of his
District will cordially, and at all
times, give him their support. He
served his country faithfully in the
Fifth Infantry, as Captain and 1t.
Col. and exhibited marked ability as
an officer.
MAJ. S. G.. SMITH,
placed in nomination as candidate
for Prosecuting Attorney, by the
Judicial Convention which met at
this city, 22d inst, is generally rec
ognized as one Of the leading Jaw
yers of Jasper county, and received
the earnest, Woodworking, cordial
support of his county delegation,
first and last. He was a member of
the Fortieth Infantry, and served for
two years, during which time he
held the position of Major, and dis
charged his duties faithfully. We
have but little acquaintance with
him but have no doubt he will faith
fully represent his district, when
elected, as he will be, by 1900 ma.
jerity.
Hon. s. N. LINDLEY,
the Republican nominee for Judge
of the I'd Circuit, 9th Judicial Dis
trict, is well known to our legal fra
ternity hereabouts, being the pres
ent incumbent, having been appoint
ed to fill the vacancy caused by the
resignation of Judge Winslow about
one year since. He is also from
Jasper county, which does not yet
satisfy that county as its fight for
Congressman attests. Mr.. LINDLEY
is pleasant, agreeable gentleman,
and makes faithful officer. On om
County ticket We have
CAPT. c. i. SEARLE,

ing that as his mark, will do well
not to call on G. p.
JOHN LARMER,
Our candidate for Recorder, enjoys
the pleasurable but not common
compliment of a nomination for the
fourth time to his present Office. He
was good soldier, as any man in
Co. II, Sd Iowa Infantry, (Mahas-
ka's first company will testify. He
bears the marks of rebel lead, and
has no love for any traitor. He will
in the future serve as faithfully as he
has in the past. For County Com.
inissioners we have
]. X. WooDs
of Adams Township,
j. R. BARNES
of Jefferson Township, and
JEHU HIATT
of Prairie Township. Three as
good men as the county affords for
the positions. All have successfully
transacted their own business, and
will we doubt not. as faithfully at.
tend the business of the County.
They are all farmers, all have the
respect and confidence of their.
neighbors, as the votes show, and
are well versed in the wants and re-
sources of the county; are upright,
faithful and honest, and will we
doubt not satisfactorily inaugurate
the new system of County Commits
