nent fitness of Mr.. Fowler for the Office. and
the strong opposition to the third term Of office
existing in this county. there can be no
doubt Of Mr. Fowler's election, for it is evil
dent to us that should Mr.. McIIench Withdraw
his friends cannot consistently support Pierce.
The County Ticket.
We think all Democrats, Liberal Republic
cans and friends of the reform have reason to
rejoice over the action OF the Democratic Re-
publican Convention held at Wabasha the 10th
inst. bach candidate put in nomination is
which he was chosen, and the general har-
mony and good feeling which prevailed
throughout the convention reflects great credit
on the delegates who participated in its de-
alterations, and gives additional strength 70
the ticket.
A. J. Fowler, Esq, the nominee for Treasur-
er, is gentleman well known to almost every
voter III Wabasha county, as one well quail
lied and fully competent, in every sense Of the
term, to perform the duties of County Treas
urer in satisfactory manner; and if his friends
do their duty he will he elected by handsome
majority
For Sheriff, Sidney H. Smith, Of Wabasha,
the present incumbent, wss nominated by q
handsome majority, an acknowledgement of
the esteem in which he is held by his many
friends throughout the county. So far as con-
ductinI the affairs of the Office honestly, con-
sisiently. and for a reasonable compensation,
Mr.. Smith has not had rival In fact it has
been asserted by number Of Republicans that
he has saved the county hundreds of dollars,
by being reasonable in his demsnds and At
tending promptly to his official duties This
alone should secure him an overwhelming ma
jority OH the dny of election, 81 d we earnestly
ask every voter to turn out and cast vote for
reform
c. NJ. Malone, of kellogg, was nominated for
Register Of Deeds, simply because he was con-
sidervd to be 'just the man for the place." Mr.
Malone is an Irishman by birth, and one Of
fine intellectual qualifications; a thorough
business man; splendid penman and &C
cOuntant. and one who ii elected, land we
have every reason to believe be will be), will
discharge the duties incumbent upon that
Official, with satisfaction to his constituents
and credit to himself. If his fellow. country
men do their duty he is sure to be elected; and
we say to every one of them, come forward and
cast your votes for MIR Malone, for he is wor-
thy Of them.
The Office of Judge of Probate was consid-
cred fitting tribute to the qualifications of J.
+. Pope. OF Plainview, and ne was nominated
by handsome majority. Mr.. Pope's fitness
aud ability for the Office over his adversary,
should be an inducement for every honest man
regardless Of party to vote for him Mr.. Pope
IS a good lawyer, and of course Is cOnversant
with the duties of the Office, and should Ger
tainly be more competent 10 discharge them
them than his opponent, who has never had
any experience III law whatever. This is an
Office which every real estate owner feels q
great interest in, and it becomes our duty to
see that it is properly filed; and in our opin-
ion Mr.. Pope should be the man in preference
to one who knows no more of its duties than
does Mr. Piers. So, voters of Wabasha Co., It
rests with you to have it well or poorly filled;
therefore exercise judgment and vote for
Pope.
Or. Z. A. Upper, Of Wabasha. was nomin-
ated for Coroner. DR.. Upper is engaged in
that city; and Is looked upon as one Of the
leading physicians Of the county, and ~ .
man las many warm friends who will show
their appreciation Of his talents by giving him
q rousing vote On election day.
J. }. Beatty, Of Clifford, candidate for
County Surveyor, was wise choice, and there
Is no doubt but that he will poll q large vote.
Two years ago Mr.. Beatty was nominsAed for
Treasurer against Mr.. Pierce, the present IN
cumbent, aud came very near changing that
gent eman's third term into something much
less. As Mr.. Beatty il 80 we'll known through
out the country IS m energetic business man,
al win agree that none better could be &C.
lected
Henry Rof, of Lake City, one Of the old land
marks Of the county, is the candidate for
Representative of Che First District. Mr. R0f
has been in business here for many years. and
by his honorable dealings with all who had
business connections with him. has earned
scores of friends. This Is Mr.. Rofs first step
in political way, having never sought for an
Office in any form whatever, nor bad ne any
idea that be would be candidate until he
came into the convention. We are free to say
that no letter ma could be found in the
county. Mr.. Rof Is m honest, candid and
practical man, and one on whom his constit-
uents can rely: man fully competent TO dis
Oh rye the duties Of the ONCE with credit to
himself, and for the best interest OF the som
monweaith.
In the Second District l.. S. Campbell, Of
Wabasha is placed in nomination for the Leg
islature. hr. Campbell has served one term in
the House: Is . prominent lawyer, and the ex-
