ORMsBY COUNTY DEMOCRATIC AND
LIBERAL REPUBLICAN TICKET.
SHERIFF.

r
s. T. Swift, the nominee of the Re-
publican party, has held the office for
the past four years with credit to him
self and to the entire satisfaction of
the whole people of this county. 1t
having been thought unadvisable to
make any nomination against SO ex-
cellent an officer, Mr.. Swift was virtu-
ally Endorsed by our party.
COUNTY TREASURER.
Guy Thorpe, the nominee for this
office, has for a long time resided i II
our midst and. as is well known, was
cashier of Wells, Fargo's banking
house in this town. As a financier,
Mr.. Thorpe has few superiors. He is
known to he a young man of strict in
.tegrity. lie owns considerable prop
ertv. and altogether is a rising ener
getic business man and IA good citizen.
We have not a word to saw against our
present worthy Treasurer. He has
held the office six years anu performed
advocate what we conceive the supe-
rior claims of our candidate, and ex-
pect to see him elected.
ASSESSOR.
George w. Chedic has held the office
of Assessor for three terms and thor
oughly understands the duties of it.
This office is perhaps the most difficult
to fill of any. The emoluments are
smail-perhars too small for the
amount of labor to be performed. Mr..
Chedic has shown a fairness and fear
lessness seldom equalled and although
he NAV have made enemies by his
honesty in assessing
the property of the wealthy at the
same ratio as of the poor, he has
gained hosts of friends who will sup
port him in spite of any political diff
ferences which may have occurred
during the past year between himself
and old party friends, as well as the
ennity of those who could not cause |
him to swerve from business.
COUNTY CLERK.
James f. Dealy, the candidate for
this office. is a steady young man; a
man of family and known h~one>ty;
capable and prompt, and if elected
Will prove a worthy successor to the
present incumbent, who has held the
office for our years. As i'll the case
of the County Treasurer, we have no
disparaging word to say against Mr..
Edwards, only that we wish the cleo
ton of u candidate, and expect il,
too, from various indications.
Mr.. King, As County Recorder, is
just as much a fixture in the Office as
though he grew there. No man in the
county is so we'll fitted tor the position,
ane he will hold Itas Tonga as hedeSlres
to, both by right and the esteem of
the citizens of the whole county.
Vim. Patterson has made so excel
lent a District Attorney, that even his
old political enemies have Endorsed
him. The financial matters of the
county appertaining to his position
have been skilfully and economically |
handled, and if he neither dies nor
marries, he will probably hold his
place forever.
The county ticket is a good one The
candidates for the other comfy and
township offices are too we'll known
to need any extended remarks.
James Duffy, III candidate for County
Commissioner, and Captain b. H..
Meder on the other side. are both men
that need out little putting. For the
minor offices, such as School Trustees
and County Adminisir ator, and the
township officers, we leave them to
their own and remark, as the
MAJ said when asked his nativity,
There are good and bad of all coun-
tries" We repeat that the ticket from
the President down is a good one and
hard to beat, as the sequel will show.
