FOR CONGRESS,
PHILETUS SAWYER !
FOR SKATE SUPERINTENDENT oFscHooLs,
SAM EL FALLOWS
THE REPUBLICAN NossENATsoNs,

The proceedings Of the Republican
County Convention were conducted in
their usual quiet manner and resulted in
the nomination Of men to whom only
envy, hatred or malice can find any OBJ
jections. Our nominee for State Senator,
Hon. John Cary, of Meme, is too well
and too fayorably known throughout eur
County, that he should require any es-
pecial recommendation. He is one of
our best educated Irish citizens, and has
filed the Office of Town and County Su-
pervisor repeatedly. and to general salts
faction. He is one Of the few exceptions
Of the people Of his nationality who, as
soon as he felt convinced of the errors
OF his ways il being so called Democrat,
without hesitation came over on the side
of Republicanism and has been, ever
since, a faithful co worker for its sublime
principles, never yielding to threats, or
fearful of consequences. He will repre-
sent our County without reference to
party and never be found wanting to sell
our interests for 80 pieces Tor any other
quantity of silver.
The Member Of Assembly nominated
for this District, cur Fritz is. although
not the Grown Prince Of Prussia, prince
Of good fellows in our community. One
Of our early German immigrants. he has
worked himself up from the shocInakers
bench to be one Of our wealthiest tanners,
one Of or best citizens and enc of the
mos. uneompromising Republicans of our
County. IF the strictest honesty and in
tegrity are the most necessary quail fica-
tons in q Legislator, they are abundant
IL found 10 our next representa- tive at
Madison, Frederick Schultz.
Our nominee for Sheriff, Mr.. r. D.
Smart. is an old resident Of our County,
favorably known in avery Town Of land
especially so wherever pine tree grows
that IS fit for saw log,-a man active,
honest aud capable, and who viii perform
his duties promptly and faithfully in the
Office to which lie was almost unanimous
" nominated.
The nomination for Treasurer was the
one most strongly contested the most
prominent candidate and-if previous
long and constant labor for the advance
Of Republican principles, if strict integ-
rity, correctne SIS and faithfulness in the
discharge of official duties had been con-
sdered-the most deserving; Mr.. Otto
Troemel saw ct 70 withdraw his name
early in the contest, as he did not meet
with the overwhelming support which he
had good right to expect. Mr. CONNIE
from Two Rivers soon followed the exam
pie and the friends Of the remaining two
candidates, Messrs. ShImonek and Even
had to have several ballots before a small
majority decided in favor Of the latter.
Both thee gentlemen are well qualified
IN every respect and if representation Of
the different nationalities was desirable,
Ehe should have preferred the former,
which we have 40 doubt would have also
been the final result of the lallots. if the
candidacy Of Mr. Shimonek had been
made known a few weeks instead of a
few days before the meeting Of the Con-
yention, for the Bohemians OF our Coun-
ty certainly deserve and have long desir-
cd a practical Acknowledgements of the
faithfu!ness with vlich they have adher-
ed to our party and OF the superior edu-
cation and general ability of their leading
men In cur County.
Mr.. Even, however, is as good can
didate to fulfil the highly responsible
duties of County Treasurer as can be
found anywhere, and we are fully salts
fed that his election viii give us en- officer
who viii apply the funds entrusted to
him, ONLY to pay the liabilities accumu-
lated by cur former County administra
tions ahich is an object long desired, but
- yet hardly ever obtained.
There was bat one candidate for the
Office of Clerk Of the Board of Supervi-
sors, its PRESENT incumbent, Mr.. Fuesse
Mich; the unanimity at his nomination
by acclamation IS the best evidence Of
the satisfaction be has given as an officer
during the last two years and Of the
overwhelming maion,ies which will be
rolled up in his favor al the approaching
election.
The candidate for Register of Deeds,
Mr.. VIM. Phipns, Of Neshoto, who has
been employed in that Office for years,
and often had sole conhole OF it for long
time, to the entire satisfaction Of our
citizens. was also nominated by acclama
ton, as were likewise our honored fellow
citizens. Messrs Armsby ana Halverson,
the former fer County Surveyor, the
latter for Coroner, ard all Of them with
the utmost unar unity May the same
spirit Of unity which prevailed in the
Convention, inspire every voter, TO give
his whole strength to the whole ticket, 70
induce oil he can to follow his example
and thus secure to Mantowoc County a
set of officers endowed with all the requi-
sites to make our people once more pros
porous and Independent.
